Chapter 35

Lynn did not care about the coffee dripping from her face. She did not even bother to wipe it, letting it roll down her face in a disgusting manner.

She was about to say something but was met with Vince’s cold glare. She could not help but tremble.

Vince averted his gaze and looked at Sheila, “Why are you keeping such an incompetent assistant, and she cannot accomplish the simple task of buying coffee?”

Sheila was taken aback as her face was filled with embarrassment. This was the second time Vince was reprimanding her because of Emmy.

She quickly apologized, “I am so sorry Mr. Young. This assistant just started her job today so I did not have time to train her. But don’t worry, after this, I will make sure that she is properly trained.”

After saying that, she looked at Lynn who was staring at Vince with a love-struck gaze before she spoke in a commanding tone, “You, come with me.”

Lynn had been so immersed in Vince’s pampering voice that she only came back to her senses af

    Chapter 36Vince had never realized just how beautiful Emmy was, or maybe he has never paid enough attention to her.Seeing how men were thirsting after her, Vince was filled with wrath. He had an urge to destroy everything in sight.Emmy was just shooting while driving a car, was there a reason as to why she needed to dress so suggestively?He really needed to teach this director a lesson.He wrapped his arms around her, domineeringly telling the world that she was his woman.The director called out to Emmy, his eyes shining at the sight of her, “Lynn, come over here, we need to start right away.”“Coming, Director Martin.”Emmy removed the jacket that had been covering her legs and handed it to Vince. She was about to run over to the director but Vince held her back.He looked at her with a tender gaze, so tender that Emmy felt butterflies in her stomach.He lowered his head and left a tender kiss on her forehead. He then spoke in a voice that indicated his unwillingness to separate

    Chapter 37After saying that, Emmy laughed as she looked at Vince, “Surprise, right?”She narrowed her eyes as she beheld at Vince. She did not want to miss any change in his expression.But Vince’s expression remained poker. He looked at Emmy with an expressionless face before he said, “It is indeed a surprise.”Emmy blinked, then looked at Vince with a confused gaze. Why was the man not following the script she had in mind?“That is, it?”Vince glanced at her and inquired, “What is it? What were you expecting?”Something did not seem right.Emmy knew how crazy Vince was about Lynn. But wasn’t his reaction at the moment too calm?From what she had experienced in the past, he should be reprimanding her for making life difficult for his wife, but this…She could not fathom what was going on in his head.Anyway, trying to figure out what was going on in Vince’s mind was like solving the most difficult puzzle in the world.Emmy lowered her head, feeling sad for the fact that she will be

    Chapter 38Emmy smiled sheepishly, “Let us visit Grandfather. It has been a while and I do miss him a little.”Grandfather?What was going on with Emmy? Yesterday she did not take her salary, and now she was proposing that they visit Grandfather.As kin as Vince was, he realized that something was definitely going on with Emmy.He remembered the first time they had gone to the old mansion. Emmy was so reluctant that she had almost fought with him. What happened that made her want to visit the old mansion out of the blue?Vince looked at Emmy with his scrutinizing gaze, “Emmy, is there something that I should be made aware of?”When she heard his question, Emmy touched her nose as she gave out an awkward laugh, “Nothing much. I just said that I miss my grandfather, and that is it. Plus, I have never cooked for him. I have been learning some new recipes lately and I think that grandfather will definitely like them.”Vince looked at her, trying to figure out if she was speaking the truth

    Chapter 39When they arrived home, all Emmy did was freshen up and lay down on the sofa.She did not even give Vince his daily massage.Looking at the small, unmoving figure on the sofa, Vince shook his head and lay down on the huge bed.Ever since they left the shooting site, he realized that Emmy was not herself.He thought that it was about money but yesterday she had given him a free massage, and today she did not even bother to do it, meaning it was not about the money.He had no idea how to find out because Emmy was not willing to talk about it.The weekend passed by quickly and it was already a Monday. Since Emmy had classes that day, she left early without having breakfast with Vince.Vince looked at the spot where Emmy always sat and it was empty. Looking at the table full of dishes, he suddenly did not feel like eating.He only drank a cup of coffee before he left for work.At the Glory World Group of Companies, inside the CEO’s office…Vince could not concentrate on his wor

    Chapter 40Vince stopped the car at a red light. He looked at Emmy and softly called out her name, “Emmy.”Emmy turned her head to look at the man. Before she could say anything, Vince held her face and forcefully placed a kiss on her lips.Emmy’s eyes widened as the blood in her body stopped flowing.They were in the middle of the road with so many cars around them, what did Vince think that he was doing?Was he out of his mind?Vince bit on Emmy’s lips before he let go.He stared at Emmy and spoke in a ruthless tone, “What did I tell you I would do to you when you mentioned your sister’s name?”“What? You!”“Do you want it again?”When Emmy heard that, she shrunk in her seat.This man was showing his perverted side again.“You pervert!”It was as clear as daylight that he liked Lynn, so why the hell was he kissing her? It was not like she had said anything wrong with her earlier statement.When he heard her call him a pervert, Vince smiled. He spoke, “You should thank God that we ar

    Chapter 41The moment they entered the club, the manager came over running with a flattering smile on his face.“Master Young, your usual place has already been prepared. Please, this way.”Emmy was looking around with a lot of curiosity. This was the first time she had stepped foot in such a place, but nothing was as she had envisioned.It looked so ordinary that Emmy was even wondering if they had walked into the right place.They passed through a large dancing arena, and then some private karaoke rooms. There was a stylish, well-furnished bar that followed after the karaoke rooms, and there was a singer on the stage entertaining people.Emmy blinked her eyes in surprise. Everything she had heard about nightclubs and whatnot was all a lie. She spoke to herself softly “Is this really a nightclub? It seems to have everything, and all kinds of entertainment are actually here.”Although her voice was low, Vince still heard her. He looked at her and chuckled, “You are mistaken, this is a

    Chapter 42“You know, Vince and I grew up together, so I know him like the back of my hand.”“Hmm, I understand.”Seeing that Emmy was actively participating, Ben felt encouraged. He continued, “You know we have been so close ever since we were young and because of our close relationship, and his cold attitude towards women, people started saying a lot of nonsensical things. That we are a couple, I don’t like men, all of that is not true.”Seeing that Ben was trying so hard to prove a point, Emmy nodded with a knowing smile, “Ben I get your point.” She looked at Vince and continued, “You guys love each other like “brothers”, so I get it honestly.”Ben felt like something was not right when he heard Emmy. Why did he feel like her words had some hidden meaning in them?“Lynn, do you want to know why Vince has always been so disinterested in women?”“Yeah, of course. Who wouldn’t want to know about such juicy news?”“Ha ha okay, let me tell you. It was…”After saying those words, Ben fel

    Chapter 43The woman Ben had brought over sneered when she heard Emmy’s conversation with Vince. She spoke in a cold voice, “Lynn, aren’t you flying too high already?”Emmy looked toward the source of the voice. The woman was stylish and tall, almost the same age as Emmy.She was looking at Emmy with a taunting gaze as if she was looking at a clown.Emmy frowned. She was certain that she had never come in contact with this woman, so she did not understand why she was being targeted for no reason.Ben’s eyebrows creased and he looked at the woman standing next to him, “Jay, watch your tongue. This is my brother’s wife, don’t be rude.” Jay smiled, but her smile did not reach her eyes. She looked at Emmy and scoffed, “Master Ben, Lynn does not need anyone to speak up for her. Her confidence is already on the rooftop.”No matter how slow Ben was, he realized that something must have happened between Jay and Lynn. There was no way this woman would start talking nonsense with someone she h

    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

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

    Chapter 154Emmy woke up early in the morning, feeling refreshed. After she returned last night, she did not practice. She showered, ate her dinner peacefully, and retired to bed without touching the piano.She had realized that Lynn must have found their dad, but she could not understand the tricks Lynn had used to make their dad accept her.What pained her the most was the fact that her dad had not even reached out to her even once.Or maybe Lynn was blackmailing him again.But regardless of the reason, she had to make sure that her dad came out of hiding today, and that would happen only if she wins today’s competition.“Feeling good?” Vince asked as he opened his eyes to look at Emmy.“Yes. I had a good sleep, and I feel refreshed.”“Are you ready for the day?”“Yes.”“My people have been gathering information, and by the end of the day, we will know what exactly is going on with your father.”Emmy smiled as she hugged Vince.
