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 44Emmy winced in pain when Vince pinched her. She laid her head on his chest, enjoying the sound of his heart beating.Jay gritted her teeth as she watched Vince and Emmy acting lovey-dovey in front of so many people. She could not take it anymore.She asked in a cold voice, “Do you still want to bet?”Embraced by Vince’s powerful arms, Emmy nodded with a smile on her face, “Of course, I am going to bet.”Jay could not stand to watch Vince and Emmy act lovingly in front of her. She picked up the pool cue and turned around, “If you want to bet, then let us get started.”However, Emmy was not in a hurry to begin the match. She left Vince’s embrace, and picked up the cue that she felt suited her before she asked Ben with a smile, “Are you guys going first or should we go?”Ben was embarrassed because this whole issue had been caused by him. If he had not brought Jay over, then none of this unpleasant situation could have happened.Wanting to salvage the situation, Ben stood in f

Chapter 45Emmy flashed Vince a smile. She lightly kicked her leg, and the cue in her hand was stylishly raised. She tilted her head towards the white ball, and with a confident smile on her face, she softly said, “It is time for the show.”Emmy went and stood by the table. After a glance at the balls sprawled all over, she bent over, her cue aimed at the white ball.Everyone nearby stared at Emmy in surprise, “Goodness, are you kidding me?”“Lynn can actually play pool?”As they were still staring, with a “thud”, the white ball flew out from Emmy’s cue hitting the red ball not too far away. It hit the edge of the table and it quickly rolled into the pocket.Everyone’s jaws dropped to the ground, “Damn it! She is neat and good!”Seeing that Emmy could play pool so well, the people around started to argue.“Are we really about to lose our money?”“Who was the person who said that Lynn could not play pool?”As they were still arguing, another “thud” sound was heard and another ball fell

Chapter 46Ben was also displeased by Jay’s attitude. If he had known she was this rude, he would not have brought her over.“With so many balls on the pool table, who could pocket them all without real skills? Jay, if you cannot accept that there is someone better than you out there, that is fine. But how dare you slap Lynn in front of Vince? What had she done to you to deserve that?”The people at the scene nodded when they heard Ben.“You are right, Ben.”“It only takes someone mature to admit that they are in the wrong.”“Lynn is highly skilled, and we have experienced it with our own eyes. We all doubted her at first but she has convinced us with her own skills. Jay, if you cannot even accept defeat, who would dare play against you in the future?”“Will you end up slapping everyone who is better than you?”Jay’s face flushed with embarrassment. She really had dug her own grave.Vince alone was enough to make her tremble in fear. Now all these rich heirs were ganging against her.

Chapter 47Seeing Jay beg for forgiveness, no one felt pity for her. She made the bed with her own hands so she should lie on it.They also understood that if Lynn had been the one in her shoes, she would not have shown her mercy given how bad she had been acting with her.They all looked away, pretending not to have seen anything. They couldn’t speak up for her even if they wanted to because this whole mess was started by her.And the people present did not want to offend Vince because of Jay. No one knew how ruthless Vince was to his enemies better than them.Emmy looked at Jay’s terrified expression and gave out a helpless sigh.She wondered why a woman could be so harsh on another woman. She was also not so naive as she understood that if she had lost the bet, then Jay would have done everything in her power to make sure that she fulfilled the bet.Jay had brought this humiliation upon herself.Although Emmy could not understand why Jay was so mean to her, she could not stand to w

Chapter 48In one of the hotel’s presidential suites…Lynn was wearing sexy lingerie and a butterfly-like mask on her face. Her legs were crossed on the huge bed and she looked very sexy.Sitting on the leather sofa was a young man in an expensive custom-made suit. From how he carried himself, Lynn could tell that he was a man of class and a gentleman.Although he looked like a dream lover of every girl, when compared to Vince, he was nothing in comparison.Lynn was not in the mood to flirt with him. She only wanted to get down to the business so that she could finally attain her title as Mrs. Young and finally kick Emmy out of her life forever.She looked at the man who had been unmoving for a while and spoke in a not-so-nice tone, “Why are you just sitting there, come over.”The man did not walk over. He stared at the butterfly-like mask on Lynn’s face and sneered, “Did I pay two million dollars just to come here and look at a masked face? And you are even ordering me around as if I

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

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. She smooched him on the lips before she spoke in a spoi
