Not far away, Emily clenched the glass in her hand tightly, as if she was going to crush it. She gritted her teeth and her eyes were filled with hatred.
Just now, she was mocking Emma for being ignored and abandoned by Archie. Now that she turned around, she was slapped in the face by their love. How could she not be angry and resentful?
Furthermore, Archie had almost become her husband. Now, countless of guests looked at her with ridicule and mocking in their eyes.
Emily was extremely ashamed. Her face was red and hot. She only wished that she could dig a hole and disappear immediately.
And all of this was because of Emma. If it was not for her, she would not be in such a sorry state today. She would become Grafton young mistress and receive the envy of everyone.
But the reality was so cruel. The exchange of identities had revealed the difference in status. No matter how unbearable Emma's past was, as long as she stood by Archie's side, no one wou
Along the way, Emma's mind was empty. Archie's words kept repeating in her mind.She even forgot that her hand was held in his palm. That scorching temperature kept burning into her heart.
Emma didn't want to anger him, but she didn't know which scripture was wrong. She just didn't want to talk to him nicely.At this moment, the tall body of the man that was approaching gave her a huge pressure, making her feel extremely dangerous."Archie, let's talk properly. Don't touch me, alright?" Emma immediately turned pale with fright and begged him.Archie's thin lips hooked upwards. "Can I move my mouth?"How could Emma be his match? All of her kissing experience came from his teachings. At this moment, she was already panting and her face was red like a sunset."Archie, go away. . ." Emma used all her strength to push him and finally took a breath. That crazy kiss once again covered her like the sky."Archie, if you keep doing this, I will be angry." Emma pushed him again. His thin lips were pressed against her lips and he was also panting heavily. Emma's beautiful eyes contained resentment as she complained.Archie's large
Tasya did not notice that Emma's expression was not right and continued to be obsessed, "Do you know? I have secretly asked around. I was hired for this audition because the director received a call. The person who made this call was Yoseph's assistant."Emma picked up the phone slowly. Finally, she looked up at Tasya. Tasya smiled charmingly. "I ask the director many times before the director told me that it really was like that. And he said that was Yoseph's choise."Emma also had a look of surprise on her face. "According to what you said, the reason you were able to join the production and take on such an important role was because Yoseph helped you behind the scenes? Why would he help you? Do you know him?"Tasya tugged at her hair. "This is what I don't understand. To be honest, I don't know him at all. I only found out about his name and his identity later on. Emma, guess, could it be that he has a crush on me?"Emma also had a dazed look on her fa
It was already past five o'clock in the afternoon when they left Tasya's house. Tasya originally invited her to dinner and watch a movie, but was rejected by Emma.The last time they returned late, it made Archie very unhappy. She could not repeat the same mistake, otherwise, it would be finding trouble for herself.She had to return to the Quinsley Family to attend the banquet tomorrow. Just like what Archie had said, if she didn't bring Archie back tomorrow, her grandfather would be very disappointed in her.She sat in the car that was heading home. Emma took out a blurry photo from her phone.In the picture, a beautiful young woman was sitting under a willow tree. Her expression was calm and elegant as she looked at the camera with a sweet smile.Emma looked at it and her eyes inexplicably turned red. The word 'mother' was very unfamiliar to her.She had never seen her mother since she was born. When her grandmother was still alive, Emma
Archie's words caused his father to fall silent. However, there was still disappointment in his eyes."You can get married, but why don't you discuss it with me? I am your father after all." Ferdie still felt that his son's marriage was too hasty, and he did not respect his father's role."I remember that I had discussed with you before, but at that time, you were busy showing off your affection to Clara and did not take my words seriously." Archie mocked.Ferdie was stunned and frowned. "If you seriously mentioned this to me, how could I not take it seriously?""Alright. If you really take my wedding seriously, you will definitely keep your word with the Sandford Family. In the end, you still want me to marry a woman from the Sandford Family." Archie shook the ashes of his cigarette in the crystal urn and mocked himself casually."Why is the Sandford Family so annoying to you? Do you know what kind of exchange we had with the Sandford Family? When
Emma sat on the sofa with her pillow in her arms. Her mind was filled with thoughts of what had just happened. The atmosphere downstairs was tense.Archie's father was furious at first glance. He did not know how Archie would explain in order to get his understanding and forgiveness.It was really sad when he thought about how he had never seen the elders of the Grafton Family after marrying into the Grafton Family.She was lost in her thoughts. The bedroom door was pushed open from the outside. The tall figure of a man stood at the door. His gloomy eyes were glued to her body.Emma was shocked and quickly stood up. She hugged the pillow tighter in her arms."Is your father very angry?" She could not help but ask him.She didn't know what was going on. She just wanted to know what had happened downstairs."Yes!" Archie replied plainly, and Emma trembled again."Then how did you explain it to your father?" Emma continued to ask
Her face was flushed red with anger. When Archie saw her, he felt flames burning down his lower abdomen.In an instant, the heat was as hot as iron, and his handsome face sank for no reason.This feeling of losing control made Archie extremely vexed. It was all because this little thing was too charming. That action of unconsciously licking her lips was even more deadly. It made Archie absolutely not want to immediately drag her to bed and ask her to do it again.After eating another half a bowl of rice, Emma was already very full. She put down the chopsticks and did not say anything before turning around and going upstairs.When the table was empty, Archie suddenly lost his taste as well. It was strange. Since when was he used to having her sit at the same table to eat?"This is too much! Who forced people to eat? I'm not a pig." Emma pouted and nagged.Archie did not go back to his bedroom. Instead, he went to his study.As soon as

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
