Chapter 98

Sheila looked at Vince and Emmy and her face broke into a happy grin. Judging from Vince’s attitude towards Emmy, she could tell that he was fond of her. And from the way Emmy looked at Vince, she could tell that the feelings were mutual.

These two were in love with each other and Sheila could not be happier. This was the best thing for her.

So, who was Lynn? She had no talent and her beauty could not be compared to Emmy’s. What's more, she could not even successfully seduce a man. There was no need for her to waste her energy on someone like that.

With Lynn’s prideful attitude, she was now nothing but trash in Sheila’s eyes.

Vince pulled Emmy closer to him, hugging her tightly in his arms. His deep and piercing eyes looked through the crowd, “What is so good about bullying a helpless woman?”

He looked at Bradley, and if looks could kill, then his neck would have already been separated from his body, “You want to challenge Lynn, then I will play with you. State your terms.”

    Chapter 99However, the filming did not go as smoothly as Emmy had anticipated. There were many mistakes and they had to redo scenes over and over again.Emmy touched her head in frustration, “Oh no, I will not make it in time.”Sheila, who was sitting beside her consoled her, “Emmy, I am sure that they have not yet started. I bet that Vince would wait for you to go there before the game starts.”Emmy was still unsettled. Everything started because of her and how could she let Vince face the enemy alone?Plus, she had not been able to properly witness Vince play pool, so she had no idea about the level of his skills.She really wanted to be there and witness everything. She did not care if Vince lost because she would not be the one to be humiliated, but she could not miss to celebrate Vince’s victory in case he won.She wanted to be the first one to hug him and congratulate him on his victory.“Sheila, come on. Since I am done shooting let us get going.”As Emmy said that, she picked

    Chapter 100He really liked teasing her, didn’t he?Emmy held his hands and acted like a spoiled brat, “Darling, come on. Just tell me if you won or not.”The smile on Vince’s lips widened. He glanced at her, “How about you guess? If you get it right, I will give you a reward.”Emmy was frustrated. How was she supposed to guess that? If she had an inkling of what had transpired, she would not be this anxious.Although she had not seen Bradley play, from how he had bragged and with the director saying that he was some kind of champion, she could at least rate his game.As for Vince’s level of skill, she was utterly clueless.She had dominated the game the last time they had played against Ben and Jay. She hadn’t had a chance to witness Vince play pool which was why she was freaking out.“Darling, you know that I am not really good at guessing. How about you just tell me, huh?”Vince only laughed without disclosing anything. He was really enjoying this clingy Emmy. She was making his he

    Chapter 101Vince was caught off guard. He did not mean to belittle women, especially Emmy. He simply believed he had an upper hand in playing a game like pool against a woman. But given Emmy's infuriated look, he had to reconsider his statement.After thinking through, a devilish smirk appeared on his handsome face, "All right, I accept. But you know, there's no fun in playing a game without betting.""That is definitely right!" Emmy's hazel eyes looked up in excitement, "If I win, you will owe me two hundred dollars and if you win, I will give you the same."Vince was aware Emmy was in need of cash. She needed the money to pay for her father's medical bills and her brother's tuition. So, there was no way he was going to take a dime from her.He pursed his lips, a hint of understanding in his expression, "If you win, I'll give you the two hundred grand. But if you lose, you don't have to pay me. Instead, I have a request that I need you to fulfill."A requestEmmy pursed her lips in

    Chapter 102On the other, Sheila sat on the couch in her room and watched Lynn across the room. Lynn’s face was alternating between anger and smugness over something on social media, and Sheila almost puked in irritation."Lynn," she called out to her, “considering the situation at the moment, you should step back and let Emmy take over and finish shooting the rest of the film."Hearing her, Lynn abruptly lifted her head. Sheila had already concealed the irritation in her eyes, so Lynn did not see anything.She did not read between the lines, but frustration bubbled up within her, "Sheila, why? The marks on my body are fading. A bit of concealer can cover them now, and they're nearly invisible without it."She had been staying in the walls of this hotel for days to hide the love bites on her neck, and she almost went crazy. And now that the marks were almost gone, Sheila was telling her that Emmy should finish shooting the whole film. Doesn’t that mean that she was being kicked out of

She sat in the resting area as she attentively observed Sophia and the male lead passionately acting out their scenes, eagerly learning from them.After a while, Vince entered the set. However, unlike his usual routine of seeking out Emmy the moment he arrived, he walked directly toward Director Grant.Once Director Grant finished filming the scene, he immediately turned around, beaming at Vince, "Master Young, I am glad that you are here!"Vince's deep eyes, usually cold when facing outsiders, lacked warmth even in his voice."Is it possible for Lynn's scenes to be completed within the next few days?""What?"Director Grant was taken aback by Vince’s sudden statement. He thought about it carefully before he answered, "Master Young, this might be a bit complicated. After all, Lynn is the second female lead."Vince's gaze darkened instantly, his cold tone interrupting Director Grant, "I just need

As for Vince, she knew that he was unaware that she was in danger.Despite everything, she still managed to maintain her cool.She also knew that Alexandra was a scumbag and if she continued to resist, she would only be feeding his ego.Emmy changed her tune, "Alexandra..." She softly called out his name, "Can you be gentle? You are hurting me.?"Alexandra was taken aback. Why did Lynn change all of a sudden?Was she flirting with him?A glimmer of confusion flashed in his eyes as he looked at Emmy, taken aback, "What did you say?"Emmy puckered her cherry lips as she pointed at her left hand, "You're so strong. It hurts."It was only then doing Alexandra noticed the bruised and twisted state of Emmy's wrist. He was holding her tightly and her wrist turned

I'll make sure you suffer for the rest of your life and never see the light of day!"Alexandra was shocked. He hadn't expected "Lynn" to be so determined and unforgiving.The previous times... Lynn had fought back, and she had seemed somewhat reluctant but he had always succeeded. But now, "Lynn" threatened to take her own life?He looked closely at Emmy's face. The unyielding look in her eyes sent a chill down his spine.But then he remembered how Emmy had tricked him earlier and he calmed down.Who in their right mind would bite their own tongue?Just because he wanted to have sex with her?

The car ride was silent, broken only by Emmy's occasional sniffles.Soon, they reached their hotel. Vince carried Emmy from the car into their room despite her protest that she could walk by herself.Once inside, Vince laid her gently on the bed, his eyes scanning her for any signs of injury. "Are you okay? Do you feel any pain?" He asked.Emmy shook her head, "No." Seeing his worry, she reached out her arms to reassure him, "I'm okay. Look, I'm fine."Vince sank next to the bed, letting out a sigh of relief. His lips remained pressed together, a sign he had more to say, but for the moment, he stayed silent.They were like two statues, sitting on the bed in total silence, neither brave enough to break it.Finally, Emmy let out a sharp breath, pierc

Emmy quickly went to help him up, but Vince changed the position, and he suddenly knelt on one knee.Emmy was surprised, and she was about to support him when a beautiful ring appeared in her line of sight out of nowhere.Her mind blanked as she looked at Vince, her eyes widened, “What are you doing?”“Emmy, I have been to almost every part of this world. 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? I never for once searched for love, but you made me effortlessly love you.”“I hear people saying that finding true love in this complicated world is just an illusion, but I found true love in you

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.

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

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

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
