Chapter 165

“What did you just say?” Leo looked at his assistant and asked.

“The Sharma family reached out. Jonathan Sharma and his son, Daniel, want to have a word with the Roberts family.”

“Who do they think they are? After everything they did to my daughter, they still have the nerve to talk to us? Just how thick is their skin?”

“Young Master, what should I tell them then?”

“Tell them that we don’t have the time to entertain them.”

After five minutes, “Sir, they said that you would be making a huge mistake if you did not meet with them. They even threatened to go the police and file a case of kidnapping against the Roberts family.”

“How dare they?”

“Leo, just invite them over. You don’t have to feel bad about it. You can’t deny that they took care of your daughter for more than a decade.”

“Dad…”

“I know that ever since Emmy came here, you have your doubts about Lynn. Maybe the Sharma family coming over might help clear the confusion in your heart.”

“Okay, Dad.”

  • The Billionaire CEO And His Substitute Wife   chapter 166

    Chapter 166Lynn touched her nose awkwardly when her father called her out. She did not know what to say.Jonathan and Daniel had come in with a lovely attitude, and if she said that they had mistreated her, then she would be seen as a liar. And if she said that they had been good to her…Well… they had been indeed good to her, and Jonathan had spoiled her like his own daughter. But when she had been of no use to him, he had chased her away and taken everything away from her without batting an eyelid.Lynn would be lying if she said that she did not resent Jonathan.With all eyes on her, Lynn did not know what to say.Seeing that she had remained quiet, Jonathan became tense. If Lynn spoke anything bad about him, he would not spare her, even if she was now the daughter of the Roberts family.“Lynn, have you forgotten all those years? I used to take you and your mother to many fun places even before we officially became a family. You loved going to the theme park. Have you forgotten?”

    Chapter 167Daniel could not stand to see his father be insulted by Lynn. After spending their resources on her for over a decade, she was now shamelessly throwing them under the bus.And looking at everyone from the Roberts family, they seemed to be falling for her act.He took out his phone and tapped on it. Soon, Lynn’s phone rang with a notification. She paused in her act, took out her phone and checked it. Seeing that she had received an attachment from Daniel, Lynn frowned and looked at him.But Daniel was so busy typing away on his phone that he did not pay any attention to her. Before she could open the file that Daniel had sent her, a message came in.“Don’t act all smart, Lynn, I know all of your secrets. You either help us, or I show the Roberts family the real you.”Lynn’s face paled when she read the message. What could Daniel have against her? Could it be related to the file he had sent her?Lynn quickly downloaded the file that Daniel had sent and opened it.It was a vi

  • The Billionaire CEO And His Substitute Wife   chapter 168

    Chapter 168“Lynn, are you okay? What happened?” Leo asked Lynn the moment she returned to the dining table.“Dad, I am okay. My tummy was hurting me so bad a moment ago, but I am all good now.”“Are you sure? Should I call a doctor for you?”“There is no need for that. It is something that happens often, so I am already used to it.”Lynn looked around and pretended to ask, “Uhm, where is Daniel? Has he left already?”“No. He said that he wanted to use the washroom, so he was escorted out by the servant.”“Hmm…”“Don’t worry, Lynn. I have already called security, and they will be here to throw them out at any moment.”Lynn touched her nose awkwardly when she heard that. She would have been extremely happy if it had happened, but now…She looked at her father and waved her hand dismissively, “Dad, it is alright. We don’t have to throw them out anymore.”“What?” Everyone from the Roberts family was stunned. They looked at a Lynn as if they could not understand what she just said.Lynn l

    Chapter 169“Wow, you look so beautiful. You don’t look like an older sister at all. Instead, you look like you are younger than us.”No woman would refuse such sweet compliments. Emmy pursed her lips as her face blushed shyly.Being called beautiful was probably the best comment every woman would want to hear about herself.“Come on, if we stay any longer, we will be stuck in traffic and we will not make it home on time. Let us get going.” Emmy spoke.The four boys followed, and she led them to her Rolls Royce that was parked not so far away.The moment they saw the luxurious car, Levi, Ben, and Simon screamed out loud.“Oh, my goodness, is this really a Rolls Royce? This is my dream car.” Levi spoke, almost in tears.As for Dave, he was not as excited as his friends. Upon seeing the car, he frowned in displeasure.“Sis, where did you get this car?”“Your brother-in-law gave it to me after he returned from abroad. I have had it for close to four months now.”“Hmmm.” Dave nodded witho

    Chapter 170Vince looked at Dave as his gaze turned ice-cold. Who did he think he was?“Don’t be ungrateful.” With those words, he quickened his steps and followed his wife upstairs.One thing he hated was seeing his wife sad. It had taken him a lot of effort to cheer Emmy up after what had happened in the Roberts' house, he was not going to allow someone else to trouble his wife, even if that person was her brother.The rest of them only came back to their senses after Vince had left. Ben wiped the sweat off his forehead as he looked at Dave like he was a lunatic, “Bro, I never question any of your decisions, but I must say, you have really fucked up this time around.”“What just happened?” Levi asked.Simon looked at Dave and spoke, “I think someone was just being ungrateful right now. Bro, was that really necessary?”Dave did not react when he was being reprimanded by his friends. He stood there with a blank face as if he could not register what just happened.Simon went near him a

    Chapter 171“What can I do to make you let go of my sister?” Dave asked as he looked at Vince.Vince almost laughed out loud after hearing his question. No one had ever spoken him like that. This boy had some guts!“And what makes you think that I will let go of my wife?”Dave clenched his teeth as he looked at Vince like he was some kind of a hooligan, “I know that you don’t love my sister. She only married you in place of Lynn and the person you love is Lynn. Please, go and get your wife and let go of my sister.”“Boy, you don’t know what you are talking about.”“I know everything. Emmy told me and I know that she will never lie to me.”“Hmmm. Did she also tell you that she loves me?”“Impossible. My sister would never fall in love with someone like you.”At this moment, Vince could not help but laugh. Looks like this boy’s thoughts were not innocent after all.“I did not call you here so that we could discuss whether your sister loves me or not. I called you here because I have a f

They had already gotten a few deals with them and their business was blooming.Jonathan looked at his son and instructed, “Son, I think that it is time to put your other plan into motion.”Daniel nodded, “Yes, Dad. I was just thinking about the same thing. I think that it is time to call my ‘sister’ again.”Daniel went to his office and dialed Lynn’s number. The moment the call connected, Lynn’s irritated voice came through the phone, “Daniel, I have done everything you asked me to, what else do you want from me?”Daniel laughed, “Relax, little sister. Can’t I even call to check up on you?”“Who is your little sister? What else do you want from me?”Lynn was not a fool. She did not have a close relationship with Daniel, so there was no way he would call just to check up on her.He must be up to something.He had been using her to force the Roberts family to sign several business deals with them that

    Chapter 173Luck seemed to be on Lynn’s side because when she arrived home, she heard that one of the great families was holding a birthday party.She went to Layla and spoke to her, “Layla, I have just heard that the Johnson's have organized a birthday party for their grandson, will you be going?”Layla was sharpening her nails. She looked at Lynn and replied, “How can I miss it? Cate is my best friend, and I cannot miss it even if I want to.”Lynn moved closer to her and held her arm. She affectionately called her, “Layla, you know that I have just joined the Roberts family, and I don’t have a lot of friends yet. Could you please take me with you?”“And why would I take you with me?”“Layla, come on. I see you as my sister. I just want to make friends, just like you. I have never been to such a party, and I would like to see how it is done.”Layla thought about it before she spoke, “The party will be held this Friday at the Pear Hotel.

    Chapter 174Emmy was accompanied to City C by Dave and the rest. Vince wanted to tag along, but Emmy stopped him.He was so busy dealing with his business, and Emmy did not want to trouble him with such trivial matters.Dave slowly started to come around after seeing that Vince truly loved his sister. When he learned that Vince was giving Emmy almost ninety percent of his salary, he was so shocked that he did not say a word for two days.He also realized that his sister would never accept another man other than Vince, so he had no choice but to accept him.He looked at Vince who was looking at Emmy with a worried gaze and spoke, “Brother-in-law, there are four of us, plus the secret bodyguards that you have arranged for my sister. Be rest assured that we will not let any harm come to her.”Vince patted his shoulder, “Don’t let me down, Dave. I am now counting on you to take care of my wife. If anything happens to her, just know that I will not spare you.”“Don’t worry, brother-in-law,
