"From now on, you better take every word I say seriously, including my tone. Otherwise, you'll only bring yourself greater trouble" Archie didn't like to be ignored, especially this woman in front of him. She didn't have the right to do so.
"I will remember this. I won't do it again in the future." It was not known whether it was because his aura was too oppressive or because his tone was filled with coldness, Emma did not even have the courage to refute him. She lowered her head like a child who had made a mistake.
"What did you do in the afternoon?" Archie asked coldly.
Emma bit her lips. This man was too meddlesome. Could it be that she would have to be under his control all the time in the future?
"I. . . I watched a movie in the afternoon!" After Emma finished speaking, she realized that she had just stuttered when she spoke.
Archie's face became even more gloomy. "Could it be that the movie is even more beautiful than me?"
Emma was stu
Archie drove his own car, and his two bodyguards followed closely behind.Emma originally wanted to sit at the back, but under Archie's cold gaze, she could only open the door of the passenger seat.Archie felt that he was really too bored. He actually wasted his precious time on Emma.Although he was full of dissatisfaction, he still drove along the route Emma pointed at.Emma bit the bread unhurriedly and drank the milk. She looked forward and could not help but think of what Yoseph had said.Archie had been engaged to the Sandford Family since he was young. If that girl suddenly came back, wouldn't she be considered to have interrupted their marriage?She was too engrossed in her thoughts, and her actions of biting the bread also slowed down. Archie inadvertently swept his gaze over her and saw her red lip lightly biting the bread. Not to mention how tempting it was.A wave of heat inexplicably spread throughout his body. This situ
Jimmy was in high spirits. He stood confidently in front of everyone. He explained the design concept of the dress in a clear and organized manner. This made people have to worship him in front of his overflowing talent, and they were willing to listen to him.Emma's eyes were also somewhat dull. In her memory, Jimmy was that sunny and elegant big boy. He grew up with her. Now, he seemed to have become more mature.If she had a trace of attachment to Jimmy, her beautiful memories of youth were all his shadows.Quickly wake up Emma! You are already married. What are you thinking about?What qualifications do you have to explore Jimmy's charm again?It was as if she was hit on the head and Emma woke up from her daze. Her eyes met with the man standing in front of the stage.She looked down with a guilty conscience and Emma panicked to the extreme.She really did not go well in everything. This company had her eyes on her from university
Seduction?Emma smiled bitterly. What an unpleasant word. If she hadn't been used by Archie to marry into the Grafton Family, why would she seduce Jimmy?All the suffering was caused by her. Therefore, she couldn't blame anyone.Since she could not get rid of this job, Emma decided to do this job well and explore her future path.Perhaps it was because her mentality was not correct that she was influenced by Jimmy.If she could be like Jimmy and distinguish between public and private matters, she would not need to be so sentimental.Her phone suddenly rang.Emma glanced at it and saw a familiar number.He whispered a line beside her ear."It's your first day at work. How do you feel?" His deep voice was filled with charm and elegance. Who else could it be but Archie?It was rare that he, a busy man, didn't forget to pay attention to her.But Emma's current grief and heartache, how could it be alleviated by
Jimmy's words made Emma speechless for a moment.She refused to have dinner with him not because of who he was, but because she felt that they were no longer suitable to be together like this."My colleagues don't seem to know who you are yet, why are you keeping such a low profile?" Jimmy mocked her lightly, but also seemed to be threatening her.Emma knew that Jimmy was angry in his heart. He blamed her for not keeping her promise and waiting for him to come back.Therefore, no matter how Jimmy ridiculed her and attacked her, Emma could endure it."Okay, I'll treat you to a meal." Finally, Emma stood up and took the lead to walk out the door.Jimmy's face did not look good. In fact, he did not really want to say like that. But when he saw her in front of him, he could not help it.Yes, he just had a grudge in his heart. Emma was the dream that he had pursued in the past. He considered her as a part of his future.However, she
Archie had calculated the time to pick up Emma from work. He waited for a few minutes by the road below her company before impatiently calling her.No one answered the phone the whole time. Archie could not help but feel annoyed. This damn woman, how dare she not answer his phone?Actually, it was not that Emma was aloof and did not answer the phone on purpose. It was because her phone was left in Jimmy's car.At this moment, Jimmy heard her phone ring, but he was in a bad mood and ignored it.It was only when he was tortured by the ringtone that he had no choice but to stop the car. He looked around and saw the white cell phone that had fallen on the passenger seat. He looked worried.He reached out and picked up the phone. There was an unknown number on it, but there was no note."Hello!" Jimmy answered the phone impatiently."Who are you?" The other party's voice was much colder than his, and it even carried a questioning tone.
Her petite body was dragged upstairs by a man's strong arm, and Emma stumbled. Not to mention how pitiful she was.When Uncle Suan and the group of maids saw this, they could not help but shake their heads and sigh.If young mistress was a little more obedient, she would definitely suffer less.However, not everyone had the genes to be tamed in their bones. Some people were born to love freedom.After going upstairs and passing through the corridor, the man pushed open the bedroom door.Emma thought that he would directly throw her onto the bed and use the most shameless way to punish her for her late return.But what she did not expect was that the man only snatched her handbag and threw it on the sofa before directly dragging her towards the bathroom."Archie, let go of me. Let go of me. I'm angry now that you're like this." Emma was so scared that her small face turned even paler. She could not even bear it in bed. In a cold and ha
Emma turned around. When she saw a cup of fresh juice on the table, she quickly went over and held it in her hands before walking upstairs.Was it effective to coax people with fruit juice?Emma lightly walked towards the brightly lit study door. Through the floor-to-ceiling window, she could vaguely see a tall figure sitting inside.She was very nervous in her heart. Her two small hands held the cup tighter and in the end, she mustered up the courage to knock on the door."I already said, I won't eat. Don't bother me!" The man inside thought that she was a maid and his tone was extremely impatient.Emma was also frightened. But she knew that she could not shrink back. It would not do her any good if she provoked Archie."It's me. Can I go in?" She cleared her throat and deliberately asked.There was no response from inside for a long time, which made her heart tighten. If she was rejected by the door, then she deserved it.It
Her little face turned completely red in an instant. Emma glared at him in embarrassment and anger. "Your request is too much."Archie extended his finger and pinched her tiny white chin. His cold black eyes locked onto her angry little face. "Apologizing requires sincerity.""Who wants to apologize? I was kind enough to give you fruit juice to quench your thirst, you misunderstood." Emma had her own temper."Emma, restrain your temper. I have the final say in this family." Archie liked to see her angry look. He wanted to bully her further.This irreversible fact made Emma's blushing face turn pale."If you don't want to, then go out. I don't like to force others." Archie suddenly had a very polite attitude and wanted to send her away.Emma's heart was in a mess. She felt that she was going to be played by him. Her small hand holding the glass cup tightened again and again."Okay, I will feed you!" As if she had made up her mind, she
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
