Finally, the day to send Daniel to his resting place arrived. Since last night, it has been raining and has continued until morning with no signs of stopping.All night long, Emily didn't sleep a wink. The images of the tragic accident on social networks haunted her endlessly.Her heart felt like it was being chopped into many pieces when thinking about the severe injuries on the bodies of the two men she loved with all her heart.“Brian, Brian...” Emily called out to the man who was falling asleep next to her bed.She understood that Brian was very tired because he had to constantly stay awake, take care of her father's funeral, and take care of her. However, this time, she had to bother him again.She wanted to see Daniel one last time, wanted to light incense for him, and wanted to say sorry to him. Perhaps at the moment of his death, he wanted to see her.“Uh, do you want to drink water or go to the bathroom?” Brian sat up, rubbed his eyes a few times, and asked.“Please take me t
“You still know the way back, huh? Neglecting the company just because of a girl.” Kent slammed his hand on the desk and shouted.“I'm sorry, dad.”Brian just replied briefly and bowed his head. James's sudden death made him somewhat afraid, afraid that at some point, he would suddenly lose this father too. Therefore, he won't say much, won't make excuses, or argue with his father.Looking at his son's appearance, Kent couldn't be angry anymore. Brian hung out at the funeral home and the hospital for only a few days, but he was no different from the homeless uncles sitting under the bridge.His beard grew all over his chin, his eyes were as deep as a well, he also had dark circles like a panda, and his body was so skinny that he was about to be blown away by the wind.“Go home and look in the mirror. By the way, stop by my study room to pick up the stack of documents I left on my desk. There's a shareholder meeting this afternoon.” Kent threw the room key at Brian, frowned, and said.
When Kevin returned to his office, the phone in his pocket vibrated. The person calling is Venn.Today, Venn should have sat next to Kevin in an important meeting, but because Kevin assigned him an even more important task, he was absent.“Boss, Miss Emily is home. I was late so Brian took her home. He also bought all the food and drinks for her.” Venn's voice was a bit hesitant.“Alright, go back to the company.”While Venn returned to the corporation, Kevin left the office and drove straight to Emily's house.From Brian's actions, Kevin could feel that the feelings he had for her were more than just friends or acquaintances.However, it seems that Brian's feelings for her are even more tolerant than he and his younger brother. Brian didn't bother her when he knew she was dating someone else but appeared promptly by her side when she needed a shoulder.If he didn't make a decision quickly, he was afraid she would be weak and fall into Brian's arms the same way she fell into Daniel's
When dawn came, it was time for Emily to leave the house and go to the Wine Company. This morning, she planned to go to the cemetery herself, but when she received a call from Irene, she had to change direction.She knew she couldn't hide forever. She must be responsible for what her father caused.Wine Company is a one-member limited liability company and her father is the only person named on the business license, with no shareholders at all.A heavy atmosphere enveloped the meeting room. Emily silently listened to the departments reporting the company's current situation.As soon as the news that the deputy general director of Unicons Group passed away was widely posted in electronic articles, banks also turned against the Wine Company.They sent a document requesting payment of overdue debt and announced that they would sue in court early next week.“Orders are still under production and partners are urging us. They said if we don't deliver the goods to them on time, they will can
After Ryan left, there were only Kevin and Emily left in the home. He sat beside the bed, holding her thin hand, his eyes never leaving her haggard face.Everything that just happened was too much for a fragile girl like her to bear. She is lively, cheerful, and enthusiastic in pursuing him, but she is not a strong girl, good at controlling her emotions like Emma.“Emily, I'm so sorry for letting us get to this point. I... I don't know what to do anymore.”After sighing, he laid his head down and then gradually fell asleep. Since the night he shared a bed with her, he hasn't had a good night's sleep.Events continued to happen, causing him to almost collapse. However, responsibility successfully pulled him back, forcing him to stand firmly on his tired feet.At midnight, the rain stopped falling and stopped lulling Emily to sleep. She slowly opened her eyes, stared at the ceiling, and then looked next to her, where a man was sleeping soundly.The dim light of the table lamp was not en
When sunset came over the city again, the plane carrying Brian landed on the runway.The work at the foreign branch had been handled smoothly, so the young deputy general director's mood also lightened a bit.However, the moment he turned on his phone and saw the message from his doctor friend, his heart suddenly sank.As soon as he left the plane, he quickly walked to the parking lot. The doctor made an appointment for him to go to a small cafe on the main road to get the results of the DNA test.These past few days, his mind was only focused on work and meetings to find solutions and troubleshoot, so he forgot about this important matter.“Take a look.” The doctor gave him the results and said.Brian quickly took it and read it quickly with his eyes. And when he saw the analysis results and the conclusion confirming that he and that girl were related by blood as brother and sister, he almost collapsed.His hand unconsciously tightened, causing the thin stack of papers to become wrin
Because Emily received a message from Brian, she no longer needed to contact any company or corporation.According to her preliminary calculations, the price he offered would help the Wine company no longer owe anyone anything after changing ownership. Of course, this house will also be sold to him.Now, she only lives alone and doesn't need such a large area. She just wanted to pay off her father's debts so that he no longer had any debt, so that no one would curse or blame him anymore.While she was eating a bowl of bird's nest porridge, there was a noise outside and then the familiar face of Kevin appeared, making her a little uneasy.These past few days, he always visited her at night, could it be that he discovered something? It's also possible that Daisy told him that Brian had come here to see her.“Have you finished thinking? Have you got an answer yet?” He put his hand on her forehead to check her temperature in the traditional way and asked.“I won't marry you. I will find s
Before the sun appeared, Kevin got out of bed. He walked quickly to Daniel's room.A familiar scene met his eyes, on the balcony, his mother was sitting on a chair, next to the blooming white rose bushes, holding a small watering can in her hand.“Before Daniel could see the flowers he planted blooming, he left.” Jessica sighed and said.“I believe he is also admiring the flowers with us.” He gently touched his hand to the blooming flower, smiled, and replied.Previously, Daniel did not pay much attention to the trees and flowers in the house. The flower bed on the balcony of the villa was originally planted with fleur-de-lis, according to his mother's preference.However, since he knew Emily liked roses, he immediately bought plants and planted them himself, replacing the previous fleur de lis bushes.Although Jessica hated Emily and knew her son planted these flowers for her hobby, because it was his effort, she could not uproot them and could only take care of them every day.“Mom,
