Not long after the taxi drove out of the Grafton's Corporation building, Emma's phone suddenly rang. She didn't even need to look to know who it was.
Emma still took out her phone to take a look. When she saw Archie's name constantly flashing on the screen, she didn't know if it was due to psychological effects, but she felt that his name had a domineering aura that couldn't be ignored.
Emma bit her lips and answered the call.
Just as she put it close to her ear, there was a man's angry roar from the other side, "Emma, I order you to come back immediately."
Emma knew that because of the wrong gift of the tie, she had offended Archie. But didn't he punish her just now?
That kind of wild and overbearing force that made her heart tremble had still shocked Emma to this day.
She had never known that a man's physical strength would be so good. It was so good that it seemed as if it would crush her bones.
"Anyway, you've already eaten your n
Archie did not hide his intimate relationship with Emma. After flirting in her office, he parked his car in front of the lobby and waited for her to get off work.Although Emma was still not used to Archie's positive attitude, her mood was very high. It was only when all the women looked at her with envy and jealousy that she realized that she was not noble and hid a little vanity in her heart.She opened the car door and sat in. The man looked at her from the side. His voice was cold: "Where's the tie?""You said I can give it back, so I don't bring it!" Emma small face started to heat up for no reason.Only then did Archie seem to be satisfied. He started the car and drove away.On the way back to the Grafton Family, Emma asked curiously, "You really want to invite him over for a meal?""I have already invited him. He also promised to come." Archie replied faintly and did not think deeper into it.Emma was nervous. She suddenly aske
The car continued to drive in the direction of the Grafton Family, and Emma's mind became even more confused. This man's words had stirred up her memories of the past, the past that she had been bullied at.That's right. Why was she so easy to bully at that time? In the future, if anyone dared to bully her like that, she would definitely not agree.Outside the living room of Grafton Family, a domineering sedan was parked at the door. Archie's car circled around and drove into the garage. He frowned slightly and said, "Yoseph came so early?"Emma only then turned around to look at the car. Was that Yoseph's car?It was not dark yet, so he came early.After parking the car in the garage, Archie was the first to get out of the car. Emma, however, was in a very bad mood.Forget it. At this point, she could not back down. She wanted to see if Yoseph would tell her what had happened between the two of them.Archie stood at the garage door a
Archie's words stunned Emma. She subconsciously looked at Yoseph.Yoseph tightened his grip on the wine glass and replied indifferently, "Yes, I was planning to support this woman with all my might. For the sake of this tie, I want her to be the most dazzling woman."If Archie's words only aroused Emma's curiosity, then Yoseph's words simply shocked her."Is what Young Master Yoseph said true? Then I'll thank you on behalf of my friend. She really is a girl with great potential for development." Regardless of whether it was true or not, Tasya's good luck was about to come. Yoseph had said this in front of Archie. It was unlikely that he had just said it out loud.Archie chuckled. "Then I'm really curious about what the other person looks like to be able to hook your heart."Yoseph raised his eyes and looked at the woman sitting next to Archie. He mocked her. "Of course she is prettier than your wife."Emma's little hand that was holding the
Emma felt that she had been wronged, but the following series of actions made it hard for her to complain. She could only shout out her voice that even she felt embarrassed about.Emma could not bear the torture. She really wanted to roar and sleep in separate rooms.She no longer wanted to sleep together with this man who was like a wolf that could not be satisfied. If this continued, she would have to exhaust her energy sooner or later.Early in the morning, Archie looked at the girl's body that was covered in marks. He couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.He did not disturb her and also closed her alarm. He wanted to let her sleep for a while longer.Faced with his loss of control last night, Archie couldn't even sleep properly. Perhaps, he was still doubting something in his heart. He just wanted to make himself feel more clearly that this woman belonged to him.When Emma opened her eyes, it was already half past ten. She scr
Emma threw away the messy thoughts in her mind and focused on the work in her hands.When she was about to get off work, she received a call from her grandfather, Gustav.Emma's heart skipped a beat. She was really afraid that her grandfather would ask her to ask Archie for help again. She was already mentally prepared and planned to refuse to help again."Emma, I heard from Emily that you are now working on Civada's design work. Is your work alright?" Gustav asked her with concern as usual.Emma replied, "It's alright. Last time I met Cousin, I heard that she wants to enter the entertainment industry and develop now.""I came to find you precisely for this matter." Gustav said with a smile.Emma frowned. "Is there something you need from me, Grandpa?""It's like this. You know Emily. She also learned how to perform arts and let her work in the company. She definitely wouldn't want to. Since she chose the profession she likes, Of cour
Two young girls stepped into the splendid restaurant on the third floor of Seven Stars Hotel.As there were no reservations, the seats they sat in were slightly remote, but it was also very quiet.After calling the waiter over to order the dishes, Tasya's eyebrows still carried a hint of joy from the corners of her eyes, and her entire person had a kind of pretty beauty.The male waiter stood by the side and watched, and he was somewhat entranced. When Tasya deliberately winked mischievously at him, the male waiter's face turned red.Emma did not have Tasya's flowery thoughts. She was solemnly holding the menu and looking at it. Most of it was written in English and Tasya's English was not as good as hers, so she handed the job of ordering dishes to Emma.Emma's English was alright, but looking at the menu was effortless. In order to save money for her good friend, what she ordered were not very expensive dishes."Emma, let's drink some more
Emma looked like she had seen a ghost. Her whole body was stiff and cold. When she saw Archie coming out of the room, his gloomy and handsome face looked like it was going to swallow her alive."Sofia, you go out first. I have something to say to your sister-in-law." Archie's face was cold and his voice was also covered with frost. It made people feel that something bad was about to happen.Sofia continued to cover her mouth and laugh continuously, but she was still very tactful as she walked towards the door. As she walked, she said to Emma, "I'm really sorry, Sister-in-law. I didn't mean to cause a misunderstanding between the two of you. You didn't give me time to explain just now. I want to help you, but I'm afraid I can't do anything about it. You better pray for your own good.""Hey, don't go. . ." Emma reached out her hand and wanted to pull the girl called Sofia back. She really grabbed onto her lapels, but she didn't dare to grab too hard. She could onl
Along the way, Archie was as happy as if he had won a prize. Of course, even if he had won the prize, he wouldn't feel as happy as he was floating in the clouds right now.When he found out that Emma was different from other girls, he felt as if he had been hit hard by something. He even had childish doubts. Did he lose his male charm and think that he had lost his male charm? Was Emma's brain lacking a fundamental sutra?In the end, he found the answer from the pride and confidence he had built up since he was young. It turned out that there was a kind of woman who did not pursue vanity and did not cling to influential people. They could live happily in their own world. The most precious thing to them was that pure heart.Archie knew that if he wanted to take this pure heart for himself, he could not only buy it with money, but also with sincerity and patience. Fortunately, he already had this woman in his heart. Otherwise, if it was another woman. . . With his
In a flash, it was the time for them to depart for the Country F.Emma prepared to drag down a suitcase that she had packed up from the trunk.A strong hand seized it at the right time and easily placed the luggage on the ground.Emma's small hand was still in the air. Her beautiful eyes turned to the side and saw Yoseph. She did not know when he was standing next to her."Why did you come down?" Emma was a little surprised, but she was more worried.Yoseph smiled faintly. "I just wanted to come down and send you off. Let's go! The company has already arranged a car.""The box is not heavy. I will do it myself." Emma wanted to snatch her small box back.Yoseph did not let her. He forcefully carried her box and walked towards the entrance of the hall.Emma could not argue with him and could only lower her head. She followed behind him.In her eyes, Yoseph's tall and slender figure was swaying.He wore a black suit
As soon as Yoseph left, Minlan hurried upstairs and asked Emma with a frown, "Did you say something to make Young Master Yoseph unhappy? I asked him to stay for dinner, but he didn't even eat."Emma was so scared that her hands and feet went cold. She had a feeling that her lie was going to be exposed and she stuttered, "No. . . No. He might have some urgent matters to attend to in the company.""Really?" Minlan stared at her suspiciously and then said earnestly, "Emma, Yoseph was really not bad. I have never seen a man more perfect than him. He is ambitious and handsome. He has a good family background. More importantly. . . Before he met you, there was almost no scandal. There wasn't a single woman around him. Look at his condition. . . It's hard to find him even with lanterns, so don't be unsatisfied.""Mom, why don't you just sell me a pack of things that are worth two pounds to him?" Emma forced a smile and joked."What nonsense are you talking about? I just feel that you should

Emma came to her father's ward with a heavy heart.The door was pushed open and she saw her mother standing in front of the bed with red eyes. Her father was already asleep and there was a needle inserted into the back of his hand.His left thigh was wrapped in gauze and he looked very tired."Mom. . . " Emma called softly.Minlan quickly stood up and walked to the door and pulled her out of the room. "Your dad is asleep. Don't disturb him.""Mom, I'm sorry. It's all because of me. . . ""Alright, no one is wrong. The ones who are wrong are those kidnappers. They are crazy for money and drug trafficking. Emma, it is good that you are fine. Do you know how worried Mom was about you?" Minlan immediately interrupted Emma's self-blame.In this matter, everyone was the victim and no one was right or wrong."En! I am also very glad that I can still come back alive to see you guys. I also want to thank father for coming to save me regardless of everything." When Emma spoke up to this point,
As time passed, this deathly silence made people's breathing tighten.Suddenly, a phone rang in the middle of the night, ringing throughout the entire office.Archie and Yoseph's pupils shrank. Their eyes were fixed on Dexon's phone.Dexon immediately answered the call.At the same time, the monitoring room also made a move.The kidnapper's voice sounded again. "Mr. Vice President, have you thought about it? Are the goods ready? I gave you two hours to prepare, don't disappoint me too much.""The goods are ready. Tell me the location of the transaction. I'll send it over immediately." Dexon said urgently."Tsk tsk, and. . . Very good, as long as you listen to me, your daughter will definitely be fine. I don't need to leave my goods behind for a woman.""Cut the crap. Hurry up and tell me the location of the transaction so I can deliver the goods to you.""Alright, I want you to drive the car over personally. The location is at a small pier called Glass Village in the north of the subu
The next morning, a piece of news hit the Internet headlines.A letter of annulment was announced by all the major news media outlets first, and it was so big that it had never been published before.All the headlines were talking about this matter, as if they were afraid that no one would see it.On the breakfast table of Sandford Family, Dexon, who had always been calm, suddenly went berserk. He tore the newspaper in his hands into pieces and threw it all over the floor."Hubby, who provoked you so early in the morning?" Minlan was shocked. She thought that the breakfast today did not suit his taste and made him angry.Dexon said angrily, "Grafton Family is going too far. Why did they post the annulment agreement on the Internet? Are they trying to let everyone know that my daughter was annulled by him?"When Minlan heard this news, her whole body stiffened, and her face instantly became filled with grief and indignation."I'm afraid that the old matter of my daughter will be hyped
Archie sat in the car, turned on the lights, and carefully checked the termination agreement in his hand.After reading it word by word, he handed the document to James, who was sitting in the front passenger seat. "Make a copy of the contract and report it to the public."James quickly took the document. "Okay, young master. As long as this divorce agreement is exposed, it will not be those people's turn to talk anymore between you and Miss Emma.""If it was not for Emma, why would I act like this? There are all kinds of people in this world. Other people's family matters are worth them worrying about and discussing." Archie mocked. However, he also knew that no matter how powerful he was, it would be difficult for him to stop the crowd.If he wanted to shut the mouths of others, he could only resolve the matter with victory.Now, the engagement agreement had already been obtained. Next, he would have to wait to make a child with Emma.When he thought of this, Archie's nerves slightl
Emma angrily went back into the car. Her snow-white little face was red with anger.She actually called her a chicken that did not know how to lay eggs. This term was too unpleasant to hear. She even called her a chicken in front of so many people.Even if she was an elder of the Wolfleim Family, she should at least show some respect to her.Didn't she just not like her marrying into the Wolfleim Family? Did she ever say that she really wanted to marry into the Wolfleim Family?Hmph, she had already cursed at her before the matter was clarified. Who could bear such resentment?After Minlan spoke a few words to Mrs. Wolfleim, she also walked out in a hurry. In the car, she saw Emma who was angered and sat in with an ugly expression. She did not want to say a word."Mom, are you blaming me?" Emma knew that she was a little impulsive just now and splashed cold water on Mrs. Wolfleim's face in front of so many people. But at that time, her qi an
Emma dragged her tired body back home. It was already past eleven o'clock at night.Minlan sat on the sofa and did not sleep. She was so anxious that her face turned pale."Emma, where did you go? You came back so late. Do you know how worried I was about you?" Minlan was so anxious that she almost went crazy.Emma felt guilty and did not dare to look into her mother's eyes. She could only lower her head."You drank?" Minlan frowned.Emma was stunned and instantly nodded. "Yes, I drank some wine.""Emma, what do you want me to say about you? You are not the daughter of an ordinary family. Did you go to the bar alone to get drunk? How dangerous is that? You're a single girl. If you meet a bad person, you'll lose your life." Minlan only thought that she was suffering from the pain of losing love, so she wanted to use alcohol to relieve her worries."Mom, didn't I come back safe and sound? Alright. I'll stop talking. I'm going upstairs to sleep. I'm so sleepy." Emma did not want to liste
