Emma could only raise her head and gulp down the wine in the cup. Her small face wrinkled into a ball.
But this was not the end. Another group of people came over to toast again.
Emma did not wait for Archie's reminder and continued to raise her head to drink another cup.
It was said that alcohol could make people numb and forget their worries. She had never tried it before, but today, she wanted to try it.
"Stop drinking!" When Emma raised her head to drink the third cup, a large hand reached out and snatched her cup.
"I still want to drink!" Emma immediately rushed over to snatch it but was directly pressed into the man's arms and was unable to move.
The person who originally intended to toast saw this scene and immediately smartly turned a
Damn woman, who allowed Emma to say someone else's name in front of Archie?Emma was simply seeking death!Archie loosened his grip on her finger and the large palm directly tore in front of her.Emma's thin dress was split in half in Archie's hands, revealing her snow white skin."Open your eyes wide and look. Jimmy wants to f*ck you." Archie gritted his teeth, his eyes as cold as ice."No. . . " The coldness in front of her scared Emma awake."No? Don't you desire it very much?" Archie mocked. He replaced his hand with a thin lip and plundered even more wantonly.Emma's consciousness was forcefully awakened. Her beautiful eyes widened in anger. Her two small hands pushed him powerlessly. "Archie, let go o
However, she didn't dare to underestimate Archie at all. If he really found out about Jimmy, given his status and power, he would definitely cause harm to Jimmy.She was already filled with guilt. She absolutely couldn't let Archie hurt him again."You can do whatever you want. I won't resist." Emma clenched her broken dress in humiliation. She gritted her teeth and held back her tears as she spoke in a trembling voice."You are not willing. I do not like to force people." Archie coldly swept his eyes over her and said in a cold voice.Emma suppressed her emotions and closed her eyes. "I am willing."Archie's expression suddenly changed, his face full of anger, "You are willing to please me for him? You still dare to say that it has nothing to do with him?"
Yoseph Ludwigh sneered, "I think you must have gone crazy thinking about men. How dare you pretend to be Archie Grafton's wife?""I'm really his wife. If you don't believe me, you can call him and ask him." Emma immediately became anxious.The wife of Archie that they saw earlier must be Emily. Emma cried so hard that she could not stop herself from crying. She was just a substitute and no one would remember her."It was not easy for us to get rid of those scourges, but we still let this one live." Yoseph's subordinate looked worried.Emma said in panic, "Don't kill me. I don't know who you are. I also don't know what you were talking about. I promise I won't say anything.""Only those who die will not speak." Yoseph said coldly.Emma was abo
The atmosphere in Quinsley Family was still very oppressive. Emily cried for a long time and sat on the bed in a daze. She did not eat for the whole day.Caroline looked at her pitiful daughter and felt extremely heartache. Originally her happy days had turned into such a sad day."Daughter, don't be sad. Just treat it as if nothing happened today." Caroline gently comforted her stupefied daughter."Nothing happened? Mom, didn't you see that video? The scene of Emma and Archie together?" Emily could not calm down no matter what. She thought about how she had been with Archie for more than half a year, and how Archie had obviously been very attentive to her. He kept giving her various gifts, even though he did not spend much time with her. She had never been hugged or kissed by him before. However, Emily believed that Archie had her in his heart.
"If I'm not satisfied, the order from the Quinsley Family will also stop." Archie said lazily, as if he was talking about a very common thing.Emma's body became slightly stiff again."If Quinsley Family didn't get this deal, how do you think your grandfather would punish you?" Archie looked at her and sneered at her.Emma trembled. If she could not make a deal with Archie, her grandfather would definitely scold her to death. He would definitely be very disappointed in her. Furthermore, he would never forgive her in this lifetime."Why do you always use my weakness to threaten me?" Emma criticized him. This person was simply like a devil.Archie smiled coldly and said: "I only know how to say the most effective words.""Alright, you win. How
"I'm preparing for the interview. I'm a bit busy." Emma randomly found an excuse.Jimmy immediately felt his heart ache. "Mia, don't work anymore. Let me take care of you."Emma's eyes reddened. This was not the first time she had heard Jimmy say such touching words, but this time, her heart hurt the most."No, I want to feed myself." Emma suddenly refused. She did not joke with him like in the past."Why? Didn't we agree that when I return to the country, I will go to work while you will be at home and do housework?" Jimmy was surprised and disappointed.Emma could no longer suppress the sadness in her heart. Tears fell down and she sobbed. "Jim, you have developed so well overseas. Don't come back. Just develop well overseas.""Do you want
Emma took the car back to the mansion of Quinsley Family. Actually, she didn't want to come back because the people of Quinsley Family didn't welcome her.However, Emma had to come back and take away some of her personal belongings.However, when Emma stepped into the door of the Quinsley Family, she was immediately scolded by Caroline, "Emma, you shameless ingrate, how dare you step into the door of the Quinsley Family again?""Aunt. . . ""Don't call me that anymore. I can't bear it, Mrs. Grafton." Caroline coldly ridiculed."I am only here to take some things. I will leave very soon." Emma also felt wronged in her heart as she silently walked upstairs.Caroline wanted to stop Emma again but was stopped by Jaxon who just came in, "Alright,
In less than ten minutes, Archie let her go. He stood up and took the phone next to him."Sorry, I just did some exercise with my wife. I didn't disturb you, right?" After Archie said that, he hung up the phone.Emma curled up her body into a ball. She kept trembling and crying."Bastard. . . " Her crying was accompanied by cursing. Archie could not bear it.He pulled her up and said, "I was going to take you out to have some fun today, but it seems like you're not interested."Emma angrily threw away his large palm and went back to bed. She took a blanket and covered herself with it.Archie's cold eyes sank a little. Seeing her trembling body, he was also shocked by his actions just now.He had never been
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
