Chapter 129A week passed by in a flash, but to Lynn, it was the longest week of her life.Sheila arrived at the company, and just as she was about to proceed to her office, she was stopped by Lynn rushing out from the side, "Sheila, Sheila..."Lynn urgently grabbed Sheila's hand; her eyes gleaming with eagerness, "Please, Sheila, help me. I know you can. Even though my reputation isn't great right now, I can still turn things around as long as you are willing to help." Sheila looked at her for a few seconds before she was able to recognize her.In the past, Lynn was all glamorous, wearing clothes worth hundreds of thousands. But looking at her now, the clothes she was wearing could not even amount to one thousand.And she wasn't wearing any makeup. Her natural face wasn’t that beautiful. She looked nothing more than an ordinary vendor.Sheila shook her head in disappointment. She did not even have the heart to compare her to Emmy. It would be demeaning to Emmy.Emmy was used to a po

Chapter 130Emmy glanced at Lynn and then at Sheila. After thinking about it, she reluctantly said, "No, Sheila. Lynn is the youngest pianist in the country. If I were to play a song for her, I would demean her."Lynn proudly lifted her chin upon hearing Emmy, "At least you know your place."But before she could finish feeling proud, Emmy suddenly changed her tone and looked at her provocatively, "But if we're talking about a competition with a prize, I'm willing to compete with her. That way, she wouldn’t feel like I am looking down on her.""What?"Lynn's eyes widened in disbelief and she pointed at her nose, "You want to compete with me?"Emmy raised an eyebrow, her rosy lips curling lightly, "Are you scared?""Haha..."Lynn laughed as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world, "Me? Scared? How dare you say I'm scared?"She suddenly pointed at Emmy, her face distorted with laughter, "How ridiculous! I am the youngest pianist in the country. And what are you? You're just a cou

Chapter 131"But does it really matter?" The person next to them smiled and spoke, "Even if Lynn is not in her best form, she won't lose.”One of the people who had bet on Emmy looked at the person speaking and asked, “How sure are you?”“Don’t actually tell me that you bet on Emmy? Oh, my goodness, are you crazy?”“Haven’t you seen Emmy’s information online? She grew up in poverty before marrying Master Young. Learning the piano is so expensive. Her family couldn't afford it."Another one added, "Oh yeah, she studied a medical course in college. Maybe she's great at treating patients, but compared to Lynn in piano, she will definitely lose miserably."The two people who had bet on Emmy snorted without saying anything. Although they knew that the probability of Emmy winning was very low, they still liked the excitement that came with it.Those who had bet on Lynn looked at Sheila with sorry gazes. They were certain that they were going to milk her dry for sure.Seems like today they w

Chapter 132Looking at Lynn's terrified eyes fixed on her, Emmy sarcastically curled her lips, "Lynn, do you accept that you lost? According to our bet, you should get lost this instant."Lynn was scared and her heart was filled with fury. She thought that she would be able to teach Emmy a lesson but now, she did not even know how she was going to survive.Just a moment ago, she couldn't push Sheila away, but now she violently pushed her aside. Sheila stumbled back several steps before barely maintaining her balance.Lynn's face had turned completely pale. The moment Emmy started playing the piano, she knew she had lost.Her confidence was shattered in an instant, and even her pride had been swallowed up by Emmy.Now, she was like a mouse who had fallen into a deadly trap, and it was on a dead-end road.Lynn raised her hand intending to slap Emmy. She shouted like a lunatic, "Who gave you the right to decide my future?"Emmy quickly grabbed her hand and firmly grasped her wrist. She e

Chapter 133Everyone was stunned, especially Lynn. Her eyes widened in shock and her mouth remained open.Did Vince just say that he had bought the company?How... how was that possible?Emmy raised her head and looked at Vince in astonishment. Her heart was palpitating.Vince lowered his head and gently kissed Emmy on the forehead. When facing his little wife, his deep eyes turned warm and gentle instantly, "Silly girl, how can I let you stay in the entertainment industry alone? Since you want to enter the industry, then I'll give you a protective umbrella."He suddenly lifted his gaze and his dangerous eyes had a warning as he stared at Sheila, "From now on, all her resources must be approved by me."Sheila felt a chill run down her spine. It seemed that it would be impossible for her to manipulate Emmy as she did with Lynn before. Emmy was now the lady boss of the company. Besides, she couldn't offend Vince unless she had a death wish.Sheila quickly nodded, as a forced smile appea

He almost beat me to death!"Suddenly, an infuriated little face appeared in his mind. Over the past month, that face had followed him like a nightmare, appearing from time to time whether he was asleep or awake.He sneered, "What a little wild cat. Twins? That is very Interesting."Just then, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and answered without hesitation.It was his friend calling him.

Chapter 135Alexandra angrily typed on his phone upon receiving Sheila’s message, [Stop playing games with me, Sheila! I want a photo of Lynn's biological father, not Jonathan!]Sheila stared at her phone in astonishment. She could not understand why Alexandra needed a photo of Lynn's biological father.But she still searched for a while and finally found a photo of Leo lying in a sickbed. She selected two and sent them to Alexandra amidst her confusion.Alexandra’s phone lit up after a few minutes. Although he did not have high hopes, he still went ahead and picked up his phone.He opened the attachment and when he saw the photo that Sheila had sent, his mind went in turmoil. He felt as if an explosion had just occurred in his mind, and it went completely blank due to the impact.Alexandra looked at the photo on his phone as a cruel smirk formed on his handsome face.…Emmy had just signed the contract and was waiting for further instructions from the company's higher-ups, and her ma

She had no idea if she would handle it because she had social anxiety!Vince could tell that Emmy was tense given that her palms had turned damp in a few seconds.

Before coming, they already knew about Emmy's relationship with Lynn and even knew about the fact that her family had forced her to marry Vince.Vince smiled at them and then solemnly raised Emmy's hand."I think everyone is already familiar with the woman I am holding her

Chapter 163“Emmy, is dad really alive?” Emmy’s brother asked over the phone.“Yes, Dave, but he lost his memories after waking up. Now, he only recognizes Lynn as his daughter.”Dave was shocked. He knew how important their father was to Emmy. He could just imagine the state she was in right now.“Emmy, I really don’t know what to say to you. I know that you have been waiting for the moment when you will reunite with dad again, I just did not expect that Lynn would be so shameful and do something so disgusting.”“Dave, it is okay. My graduation is coming soon. Will you be present?”“Of course, sis, I am almost done here. Once I come back, I want to find a job so that I can be able to take care of you.”“What are you talking about? I am your older sister, so I am the one who is supposed to be taking care of you and not the other way round.”“Emmy, wait for me to come back. I will make sure that I save you from Vince’s clutches. Just wait a little longer, okay?”Hearing her brother, Em

Chapter 162The moment the airplane touched the grounds of City A, Emmy felt that she had finally returned to the world of the living.The past few days had been a rollercoaster of emotions for her, and she was exhausted.She had won the competition, thus making her way into the entertainment industry. Her father was still alive, but unfortunately, he did not remember her. He even thought that she was a villain's daughter.“What are you thinking about?” Vince's voice sounded. His voice was the most beautiful thing that Emmy would wish to listen to every day.“I don’t know how, but I want everything that I have experienced for the past few days to just go away. I want things to go back to how it was.”“Come, let us go home. I will help you relieve your stress.”“Really? What will you do?”“You will know when we reach home, okay?”Although the ride home was filled with silence, it was peaceful. Emmy rested her head on Vince’s shoulder, and she soon dozed off.“Tom, slow down the car.”“T

Chapter 161When Emmy left the study room, she did not see Vince around. She did not want to linger around; she immediately headed downstairs.Seeing her come down, Lynn approached her. She had wanted to go and eavesdrop on their conversation, but with Vince standing at the door like knight, she did not dare.“Emmy, have you finished telling your side of the story?”Emmy looked at her without saying anything. Her reaction was enough to tell Lynn that she had failed.“So, did Dad, Grandpa, and Grandma believe you?”“Lynn, when the time comes, don’t say that I did not warn you. Just pray hard that dad does not regain his memories in this lifetime, or else…”“Or else what, Emmy?”“Nothing. Enjoy while it lasts.”Lynn wanted to say something, but Emmy had already left. She gritted her teeth as her eyes turned cold. There was no way she was going to allow Leo to regain her memories. It would be great if he died soon.“Who are you planning on killing?”A deep voice sounded, which made Lynn’s

Chapter 160A servant came over and took Vince and Emmy upstairs. “They are waiting for you in the study room. This way, please.”Emmy suddenly became nervous. What if her father refused to listen to her and chased her away? What would she do?With so many thoughts swirling in her mind, Emmy found herself outside the study room.“Honey, can you wait for me outside? I…”“It is okay, I understand.” Vince nodded as he touched Emmy’s hair. He had no intentions of going inside, anyway.“Thank you.”“I am right here; don’t be afraid.:The moment Emmy entered the study room, she felt stifled by the somber mood.Old Master Roberts was sitting on his chair while Leo was in his wheelchair. As for Old Mrs. Roberts, she was sitting on the leather sofa in the study room, her gaze glued to Emmy.Emmy looked at them and respectfully bowed her head. After what had happened earlier, she had no idea how to face her dad.Old Master Roberts looked at her and asked in a cold voice, “What are you doing here

Chapter 159As the celebration was going on inside, a sleek Lamborghini quietly parked outside the gates of the Roberts family.Emmy had calmed down a lot, and even the tears on her face had dried up.“Darling, why are you not driving inside?” Emmy asked when she saw that Vince had stopped all of a sudden.Vince took a deep breath before he drove towards the gate. Although he dreaded this place, and it was the last place he would ever want to come, for the sake of his wife’s peace of mind, he had to drive through the gates.They were stopped at the gate, but after hearing Vince’s identity, the security quickly let them in.The Roberts family elders and Leo were also informed of their arrival, and they quickly gathered in the study room.“Leo, you said that you had met Emmy earlier. What exactly did she say?”“Nothing much, Mom. I don’t know, but the moment I saw her, I felt a jolt in my heart, something that I did not feel the day I saw Lynn.”“Of course, it is normal for you to feel

Chapter 158Outside the hotel…Emmy stood before her father, feeling nervous.“Dad, is that really you? I have been looking for you all over. I thought that I lost you.”Thinking about everything that Emmy had done to him, Leo looked at her coldly, “Who are you calling dad? Emmy, when will you stop being pretentious?”Emmy’s eyes widened in shock. She had not expected such a response from her father. “Dad, what are you talking about? I am your dearest daughter, Emmy. Don’t you remember me?”“It is true that I don’t remember. But I know all the despicable things you did to me. You can drop your innocent act, it is very disgusting.”Emmy cried. She could not believe her ears. Was this the same Leo with whom they had been through a lot together? Was he the same father who had always patted her back and told her to never give up in life, that good things took time?Vince had gone to the car. He returned and saw Emmy crying, and his face instantly turned cold.“Honey, what happened?”Emmy

Chapter 157Vince was Emmy’s number one fan. The moment she pressed the last key, he started to clap hard as he happily cheered.His claps brought everyone back to their senses, and there was thunderous applause all over the room.Even Leo clapped hard as a faint smile appeared on his withered face. He did not want to be told who Emmy’s teacher was. She had really mastered everything. She was even on a higher level than he was when he was at her age.Lynn almost beat her lips off. She had been excited when Emmy had started to play the piano. She even thought that Emmy was handing the victory over to her. She had not expected this turn of events.Emmy was a witch! Now, even her dad was clapping for her.He was even smiling, and she had not seen him smile for her after she was done playing.She clenched her hands tightly, her long nails digging into her scalp that it almost bled.She had planned on using the fact that Emmy copied her song to disqualify from the playing the duet. She had

Chapter 156The moment Leo saw Emmy, he felt a strange emotion in his heart that he had never felt the day he saw Lynn.It was not hatred nor dislike. It was the kind of emotion a father would feel towards his child after not seeing her for a long time.Even after everything that Emmy had done to him, why did his heart palpitate when he saw her, and why did he not have negative feelings about her?Could Lynn have been mistaken?Anyway, since she dared bully his daughter, he was going to teach her a lesson. He had vowed to protect Lynn, and he was not going to sit still and watch her be bullied.The competition began on a high note. Since today was the final day, everyone was giving their best shot.The first four participants did their best, and they received a lot of compliments from the judges. Their skills had also improved by leaps and bounds over the past few days.As always, Lynn was arranged to perform before Emmy. When it was her turn, she stood up and gracefully walked to the

Chapter 155At the competition venue, since today was the final, the organizers had invited a few influential people from the entertainment industry.When they heard that Leo Roberts would be attending, everyone revealed shocked expressions.Leo Roberts was not just another household name. He had once been an icon in the music industry, but he disappeared without a trace when his career was at its peak.But now that he had resurfaced, those who never had a chance to meet him were filled with awe.“Where has Leo been all these years?”“I heard that he only recently returned to the Roberts family. He got into an accident and lost his memories of more than twenty years. He had just regained consciousness a few days ago.”“That is bad. No wonder he just vanished without a trace.”“He was a genius back then, and a lot of senior people still remember him. I heard that Lynn is his daughter, and he is especially coming to support her.”“That was why she had improved leaps and bounds since the
