"Did you just slap me?"Emilia quickly got up from the ground, glaring at the visibly alarmed Mitchell.The overwhelming presence of a long-standing, influential figure surged relentlessly, sweeping toward Mitchell. He felt weak in the knees.Emilia's bearing alone crushed Mitchell.However, as her father, he firmly believed that Emilia wouldn't dare to defy him. So he forced his head upward and glared at Emilia. "What's wrong? I'm your father. If you've done something wrong, am I not allowed to slap you?Emilia didn't flinch. Instead, she walked toward Mitchell. "What have I done wrong?"In this situation, she still dared to stay stubborn?Mitchell was frustrated. "What did you tell me back then? Didn't you say that the Adrian guy had no issues? Now the whole country is criticizing him, yet you're still sheltering him. Are you trying to ruin our family?"Get rid of him now, or you'll never be recorded in the Cooper family records. We don't need someone like you in the family
Watching Mitchell's bewildered expression, Emilia felt a sense of satisfaction."You don't know how to deal with me, right?"Emilia's triumphant expression angered Mitchell, but indeed, he had no way to deal with her.Ever since Emilia took control of the Watson family, outwardly, it seemed like she handed over the entire Watson family to him. She even allowed Mitchell's trusted relatives to live in the Watson Residence.However, in reality, Emilia held all the power within the family.Even these bodyguards only followed her orders.After realizing this, Mitchell suddenly broke into a cold sweat. His seemingly glamorous life was all thanks to Emilia. The entire Cooper family relied on her."Why aren't you saying anything?" Emilia calmly adjusted her clothes, her eyes revealing a hint of coldness as she looked at Mitchell.After a change of mind, Mitchell thought of a way to deal with Emilia."Don't you just want to be in the Cooper family records? How about this? You release a
"You're the ones who abandoned me in the first place! Why should I care for the family now?"If Mitchell had really cared about her, he wouldn't have sent her to a place where she wasn't welcome, and she wouldn't have been subjected to constant humiliation!After Emilia grew up and returned to the family, Mitchell still treated her like a cash cow. He forced her to work hard to make money for Maverick.Mitchell was the least bit concerned about her well-being. After he had exploited Emilia to the fullest, he only wanted to get rid of her from the Cooper family.Someone like him wasn't even qualified to be a father. Now, Mitchell even dared to accuse Emilia of letting down the family!Just when Mitchell was speechless and unable to defend himself, Maverick returned home.He walked as if he were in a trance, his eyes lifeless. His whole body seemed to have been drained of energy.Ever since arriving at Dawsbury, Maverick had been partying like crazy.Emilia could tell that Maveri
Emilia curled her lips into a cold smile."So what if I did it on purpose? Can't you see how happy he is now?"If it weren't for the Cooper family's bodyguards holding him back, Mitchell would have already reached Emilia and directly delivered her a few solid slaps."What benefits do you gain from turning him into a good-for-nothing?"Emilia crossed her arms and looked at Mitchell, who was still trying to lunge toward her. "Benefits? Of course, there are benefits! Look at you now. You're so angry you're about to have a stroke."Besides, even if I were to hand over the Cooper family to Maverick, he wouldn't be able to handle it, would he?"Mitchell roared like a wild beast, "Bitch! You'll definitely have a miserable ending!"Emilia laughed out loud at his words. "I don't know if I'll have a miserable ending, but Maverick …"Emilia left Mitchell hanging with her words, and he couldn't take it anymore. He shouted, "What else did you do to Maverick?"Emilia smirked. "The last time
Tragedy struck the Cooper family.In an attempt to show off their newly bought RV to a bunch of relatives, Emilia's parents drove recklessly under the influence during the day. The vehicle then fell off the cliff on the way to the Cooper Residence.It was said that the explosion's light lit up half the sky, and the number of fire trucks and ambulances that went to the scene was countless.Emilia cried so hard at the scene that she fainted several times. She was finally taken to the hospital for emergency treatment.The rescue efforts concluded with the discovery of seven partially intact bodies at the explosion site. Due to the explosion, it was temporarily impossible to identify the individuals.However, Emilia was still taken aback when her confidant reported the results."There were clearly eight people in the RV, so how are there only seven bodies?"The confidant replied, "It is likely due to the extreme intensity of the explosion, so some of the bodies are no longer in one
How could that seemingly foolish-looking Lincoln capture Liam's interest?Cynthia was so furious that she could barely contain herself! Before Emilia could mock her again, she had already walked away elegantly. Emilia turned with a slight smile on her crimson lips and returned to the viewing room.Unbeknownst to her, once they left the area, another person stepped out from the shadows. Maverick's face was ashen, and he was trembling all over.Even now, he still couldn't believe that his sister, who seemed so gentle and easygoing, had actually killed their parents.If Emilia was really the one behind it, then she was too terrifying for having hidden it too well! Maverick could still remember the scene of the accident vividly. Emilia was crying so hard that her voice was hoarse. If he hadn't been holding her, Emilia would have jumped off the cliff with Mitchell and the others.Maverick found it hard to believe that such a person was a murderer. He stood in place, shaking un
Liam was taken aback when Nadia and Alex asked to meet with him.Previously, due to Lana, his relationship with the other two was considered neutral.However, given his current situation with Lana, he couldn't figure out why Nadia and Alex would want to meet him.Since there weren't any issues between them, Liam still went to meet them at the appointed time and place.Nadia had made a reservation at a moderately upscale restaurant to avoid attracting too much attention.Private rooms were available in the restaurant. Upon their arrival, the waiter escorted them directly into one of the private rooms.After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the three took their seats.Liam took out a cigarette and asked, "Would you mind if I smoked?"Nadia smiled faintly and replied, "You're free to do as you please!"With that, Liam lit the cigarette and smoked in silence.Nadia and Alex were a little surprised. Liam didn't seem to be such a heavy smoker before. Yet, he always seemed to have
"Don't you think I want to see her in person as well?"Liam rarely showed such a disheartened expression."But I don't have the guts to face her! I'm afraid she won't forgive me!"It turned out that someone as formidable and domineering as Liam had weaknesses as well. There were even times when he couldn't get what he wanted.As a man himself, Alex understood Liam's current dilemma the most."Mr. Liam, as long as you haven't committed anything that goes against one's principles, I believe that once you resolve the misunderstandings with Lana, she'll definitely return to your side."Liam shook his head. "It wasn't a misunderstanding that caused us to break up. It was because we didn't trust each other enough. To be more precise, it was my lack of trust in Lana that led to this situation."Nadia immediately caught on to the situation. "Actually, Lana is a straightforward person. If you treat her well, she will reciprocate tenfold. However, she has one fatal flaw—she lacks a sense
