Chapter 139

Vince raised an eyebrow and nodded, "One red envelope can't contain so much money, so they gave you a card. Let's see the others."

One by one, Emmy opened the envelopes and indeed, they were all bank cards. None of the envelopes had any cash.

Perhaps, the people in the Young family had planned it as all the passwords were written on sticky notes attached to the cards, and all of them were her birthday.

Instantly, a warm feeling bubbled in her heart.

This was the first time after her father’s accident that she was truly experiencing the warmth of a family.

Her eyes reddened as she looked at Vince, "Darling, thank you so much. No matter how much money there is, I am very grateful to them."

Vince smiled at her without saying anything. Emmy could not fathom the mystery in his eyes.

The next day, Emmy went to the ATM with the cards and was shocked when she checked the balance!

Each card had a balance of one million dollars.

She covered her face shyly as her heart hammered. She

    Chapter 140Lynn’s face instantly swollen from the fact and there was an obvious fingerprint on her cheek.Looking at Lynn's swollen face, a cruel smile formed on Alexandra’s lips, "Lynn, remember keep this in mind, no matter who I am, if you want to get out of this pathetic life of yours, then you must listen to me as do as I say. Otherwise, I can take back what I give you at any time!"Lynn covered her burning face and looked at Alexandra with a sense of grievance. She really wanted to slap him back fiercely, but his words made her stop in her tracks.Did he just say that he could give her a good life?She lowered her head and after thinking about her current situation, she nodded submissively, "Okay, I understand."Alexandra glanced at her coldly. There was not a single emotion that could be detected from his eyes. He took two tissues from the table and carefully wiped the place where Lynn had touched. After he was done, he discarded the tissues into the trash can disdainfully, bef

    Chapter 141The receptionist couldn’t hold her laughter anymore. She covered her mouth and laughed out loud, "I am fired? Who do you think you are? Do you really see yourself as Mrs. Young?”"What's going on?"Before Emmy could say anything, a deep voice sounded. The receptionist and Emmy both looked toward the source of the voice.Vince walked directly toward them, followed by Tom and several other company executives.The receptionist saw him and immediately stood upright and put on a flattering smile, "Hello, Mr. Young."She then gave Emmy a very disdainful look before she complained, "Mr. Young, this woman didn't make an appointment but wanted to see you. She even claimed to be Mrs. Young and wanted to fire me... That's ridiculous!"Upon hearing that, Vince shot her a cold look and said in an angry voice, "Yes, she is Mrs. Young. Do you have a problem with that?"The receptionist froze at once upon hearing Vince. She pointed at Emmy and said in a trembling voice, "She… she is…Mrs.

    Chapter 142The noise inside the office could make one blood boil. Tom hurriedly left with his cheeks flushed red."Oh… haha... Don't..."Seeing that Vince would not let go of her, Emmy raised her hand in surrender, "Darling, I was wrong, please spare me."At this moment, Vince was already on top of Emmy. A few buttons of his shirt were undone. He lowered his head and gave a cunning smile, "Do you understand now?"Emmy didn't want to understand, but if she shook her head again, she would be tickled by Vince again. She had laughed until her stomach was hurting.She could only nod her head with a pitiful look, "Yes."She looked like a pitiful and adorable little cat, very cute!Vince chuckled softly, gently stroking her tender cheek, "What do you understand?"Emmy felt even more aggrieved. Because she had laughed so much before, tears were shining in her eyes. She looked up at Vince as if she were about to cry: "Darling, please don’t do this. Kindly, can you spare me?"Vince gasped. He

    Chapter 143The compound was so large that it took them over half an hour to reach a tall and antique-looking building.The gatekeeper turned to them and said, "We have arrived. You may get off."As soon as Lynn and Alexandra got off the bus, a girl dressed like a woman from ancient times came forward to usher them in."Young Master Roberts, Old Mrs. Roberts, and Old Master Roberts are already waiting inside. Please follow me."Lynn and Alexandra stepped foot on the marble floor. The further they walked; the more determined Lynn became. No matter what, she had to let Leo accept her. There was no way she was going to let this chance slip by.The girl led them inside, and after entering a hall, she gestured with her hand and said, "Please come in."Alexandra politely thanked her and led Lynn into the hall without any embarrassment or hesitation.The ones sitting in the main seats were not Leo but two old people who seemed to be in their seventies. Their dignified demeanor showed that th

    Chapter 144Old Mrs. Roberts nodded her head and her voice softened, "Lynn, why did you cry harder when we mentioned Emmy just now?"Lynn had already prepared a script in her mind. She composed herself and glanced at Leo. She clasped her hands in front of her as if she didn't know how to say it, which caused Old Master Roberts to frown again."Can't you talk? If you have nothing to say, then get out of our sight!" his aged voice rang out."No!"Lynn anxiously shook her head and took two hurried steps forward. She licked her dry lips and finally said, "I shouldn't say anything bad about Emmy, but she is the reason why my dad went missing. I hate her!"“Hmm.”Old Mrs. Roberts was sitting up straight, but upon hearing Lynn's words, she leaned forward slightly, seemingly very interested, "What did she do?"Lynn bit her lower lip and slowly said, "When we were six years old, my parents divorced because dad had lost his job and he could not even provide us with basic needs."At this point,

    Chapter 145Upon hearing the question, Lynn finally spared Alexandra a glance.“It was because of him. After Emmy had shamelessly taken Vince away from me, I met this man. He sympathized with me and that was how we fell in love.”Lynn almost puked when she said that. Ha, they had indeed fallen in love.“When I found out that my dad had gone missing and Emmy was unreachable, I immediately contacted him. It is all thanks to him that I am able to see my father again.”Alexandra bowed without saying anything. His turn was yet to arrive.Leo tried to recall and see if he could remember anything but he had no memory of Emmy or Lynn.And if everything Lynn said turned out to be true, that he was her father and Emmy was also his daughter, then Emmy would have hurt him really bad.He never would have imagined that he would give birth to such an ungrateful child.He did not even know how he would face her if they happened to meet one day.He took a deep sigh before he waved his hand at Lynn.Ly

A single room was larger than the mansion that Jonathan had given her.Lynn was overwhelmed with emotions. If she really managed to enter the Roberts family, her life would truly transform.The moment the servant left, Lynn turned around and looked at Alexandra haughtily. She raised her chin and gave him a domineering look, “Alexandra, keep this in mind. I am about to become the daughter of the Roberts family. If not for me, with your filthy identity of an illegitimate son, you wouldn’t even be worth smelling the air of the Roberts family.”“So, don’t bite the hand that feeds you. I can discard you off anytime I feel like.”Alexandra looked at her and laughed out loud as if he had just heard the funniest joke.Suddenly, he narrowed his eyes and kicked Lynn in the stomach.“Ouch!” Lynn clutched her stomach as she cried out in pain.

    Chapter 147Leo took the DNA results from the doctor with trembling hands. This would determine whether Lynn was his daughter or not.He was about to open the parcel but he stopped in his tracks. He looked at his mother and made a request, “Mom, why don’t you help me open it?”Old Mrs. Roberts shook her head, “No, dear, this is your moment, so you have to do it. No matter what the results are, you have our full support.”Leo took a deep breath before he opened the parcel. He read through the document, and when he reached the last part, his hands trembled, and the calm expression he had been keeping on his face finally cracked.“The analyst's interpretation of the results includes the comparison and statistical analysis of the genetic materials. The paternity test concludes that Leo and Lynn have a 99.9999% chance of being biologically related.”“Leo, what is it?”Leo looked at her mother and spoke in a shaky voice, “Mom, Lynn is my biological daughter. We share the same DNA.”“Wow, Le

I have interacted with royalties and ordinary people alike. I have seen many beautiful ladies, but you, my dear, you are different. The moment I laid my eyes on you, I knew that I wanted you for life.”“You are beautiful, you are talented, you are kind, you love with your whole heart, how could I not want to spend the rest of my life with you?

Quickly freshen up and head to the living room.”Lynn was excited. Finally, she was getting out of this room.

He could not believe that he had finally regained his memories. The first thing he spoke about after opening his eyes was Emmy.“Mom, I want to see Emmy. I want to see her right away.”Old Mrs. Roberts was confused, “Son, what are you talking about? Why do you want to see Emmy after everything she did to you?”“Mom, I will explain everything to you later. But I have to see Emmy right away. Also, make sure that Lynn does not go anywhere. Don’t let her leave the Roberts mansion at any cost.”Although Mrs. Roberts was confused, she still nodded her head. She went to her husband and conveyed her son’s message.Old Mr. Roberts did not express much. He looked like he had expected it, “Let us do as he says.”Lynn had left the hospital before her father woke up. Since the doctors had said that the surgery was a success, there was no doubt tha

The media is making fun of you. What are you going to do about it?”“Daniel, I cannot give you a reply right now. My uncle would be undergoing surgery to try and regain his memories, my dad is also busy looking through what exactly happened the other night, so please, I appreciate your concern, but you have to be patient, and wait for a little while.”“After helping you and even saving your life, this is what I get in return. I even offered to take responsibility for what happened, but you are still delaying things?”Layla was about to reply when her father’s voice sounded from behind, “Who is on the phone?”Layla turned around, “Dad… it… It is nothing.”“Give me the phone.”Layla had no choice but to hand the phone to her father. Andrew took the phone and spoke in a cold voice, “You bastard, are you forcing my dau

What made her cry even harder was the fact that she could not remember a thing.“Gosh, why did this have to happen to me? How am I going to face anyone from today onwards?”Daniel looked at the bathroom door that was tightly closed and smiled contentedly. Now, he would be like a hero to the Roberts family, and he was sure that they would fulfill all his wishes.He took his phone and texted Lynn, “We are about to leave. I hope the reporters are on standby.”Lynn’s reply came almost immediately, “They have been outside the room the entire night, don’t worry, they won’t go away so easily.”Daniel also took a shower. He did not want to raise any suspicion, especially now that his plan was almost successful.The moment he opened the hotel door, the reporters surrounded them.Daniel appeared shocked as he drew Layla into his arms. He looked at the reporters and question

    Chapter 184“I remember you, you are Lynn’s brother, right?”Daniel nodded.“How the hell did this happen? My mind is so messed up, and I don’t remember anything.”Daniel looked at her and smiled secretly. The person who sold him the drug had said that it would be hard for the person who took it to remember anything. Their memories would be all over the place, and it seemed that he had been right about it.“Well, I don’t know if you are going to believe me or not, but I saved your life yesterday night.”“What do you mean you saved my life? What exactly happened? Can you please speak up!”Daniel started to narrate the story that he had formed with Lynn.“All that happened without my knowledge?” Layla asked in a disbelieving tone.“I found you in the washroom, and you were almost out of breath. I recognized you and helped you to your room. I just never imagined that…”Layla held her face in her hands. She was so confused that she did not know what to do.If what Daniel said was true, sh

    Chapter 183With the Roberts family intervention, the scandal surrounding Lynn was quietened down. Since Vince had not made another move, her tensed heart also calmed down.Just as she thought that she had dodged the bullet and she would have a few peaceful days, Daniel called her, “Lynn, we only have two days until Friday, what is your plan?”Remembering everything she had been through and the obvious doubt that the Roberts family had against her, Lynn did not think that she would be able to pull it off.“Daniel, can we do this some other time, please? I have been through a lot of troubles lately; I don’t think that I will be able to pull this off.”Daniel was quiet for a minute before he spoke up, “In that case, I will just forward this video to every member of the Roberts family, or should I just post it online?”Lynn felt like crying after hearing that. She gritted her teeth and spoke, “Daniel, please, don’t do this to me. I will help you. I will make arrangements. Just be there, o

Old Mr. Roberts wanted to oust her from the house right there and then, but Leo stopped him.“Dad, we should listen to what Lynn has to say. What if she is being framed?”Seeing that there were hopes for her to redeem herself, Lynn fell to her knees and hugged Leo’s legs. As long as her father still believed in her, she would have the chance to turn things around.“Dad, I am so sad. I don’t know what I did to deserve all these. I wonder what Emmy really wants with my life.”“What do you mean?” Old Mrs. Roberts glared at her with cold eyes. Her family had never faced such humiliation all these years, and because of her, they were now being roasted by the media.“Dad, I am innocent. I did not do anything. I have been staying home all this time, how could I know all these bad people? I think that Emmy did it on purpose. She wanted to frame me.”“And why would Emmy do that, huh?” Old Mr. Roberts asked.

Five minutes later, a phone ringtone broke the deadly silence in the room.“Bring it to me.”The goons had been beaten black and blue, and they had no way of resisting. The phone was handed to Vince, who picked it up and put it on loudspeaker.Lynn’s excited voice came through the phone, “Any updates? Is the job done? Have you already dealt with the bitch?”No one spoke on the other side of the phone. Lynn got frustrated and shouted, “Can’t you hear me? Have you gone deaf? I haven’t received a single picture or video from you. Is the job done or not?”After what seemed like forever, Vince’s cold voice came through the speaker, “Lynn Roberts, right? I see that you have grown wings after joining the Roberts family. Do they know what you have been up to?”Lynn was so shocked that her whole body
