The atmosphere in the elevator was still very stiff and heavy. The three of them did not speak anymore. Archie's gaze fell on Emma who had her head lowered. Yoseph's gaze, however, had no place to rest. He could only stare at the elevator door.
His eyes reflected from the elevator wall. He saw the unwillingness, jealousy, and disappointment in his eyes and was shocked.
He quickly reached out and pressed on a random floor. The elevator stopped, the door opened, and he quickly left.
The elevator door closed again. Archie frowned and pulled Emma, who was standing straight, into his arms. "Yoseph is joking with you. Don't take it seriously."
Emma looked up and her clear eyes looked back and forth on the man's handsome face. "You really didn't sleep with the female stars here?"
Archie was about to break down. He felt that he had been wronged when she stared at him with her bright eyes.
"I really didn't. I run a company to earn money, not to play
The man suddenly leaned over, causing Emma to retreat in fear. However, the man was already prepared. A large palm was very overbearing as it grabbed her waist, not allowing her to escape."Let me go, Yoseph. By doing this, are you worthy of Archie?" Being pushed by his large palm, Emma could not help but throw herself into Yoseph's arms. In the next second, both of his hands landed on her waist. The two of them hugged each other stiffly. Emma immediately cried out in embarrassment and anger.This sentence was like a knife that deeply stabbed into Yoseph's heart. His entire body trembled. The large palm that was hugging her suddenly loosened, and his expression became even more miserable and painful.Emma hurriedly ran to a safe place. She did not care about the wind that messed up her hair, nor did she care about her dress being blown up all over the place. She said angrily: "Archie and you have been brothers for so many years. How can you have any evil thought
Of course, Archie was worried about his grandfather's illness. He quickly said to Mrs. Herma, "Is grandfather's illness more important? Did you invite a doctor to come and take a look?"Mrs. Herma knew that young master was giving her respects. No matter how big or small Old Master's condition was, he would ask the doctor to report it to him at any time, and then find time to accompany him for two days. It was the same no matter how busy he was."It's not a serious illness. It's just that the cold wind in the garden last night was a little cold. I already give him medicine, but he doesn't want to eat it. I want to call the doctor, but he won't let me call and just say that he wants to see you. Young master, what do you think. . ."Archie's eyes were slightly stunned. Then he said in a low voice, "I know. I will go and see him tonight.""Then I will go and reply to old master. Oh, young master, There is one more thing that old master has told me. Although
Emily saw that the other end of the phone was silent and sneered very proudly, "How does it feel to be alone in an empty room? Do you think this is karma? You guys have only been married for a few days and Archie has already go out from his home at night. Emma, snatching other people's men, the outcome is just like this. You have to get used to it.""Why should I believe what you said? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?" Emma retorted.Emily was charming. She said unhappily: "It's up to you whether you believe it or not. Anyway, I know about this matter. Luisa and Archie were engaged to each other since they were young. In the upper class, this was a public secret. In the past, when Luisa went missing, no one mentioned this matter. Now, Luisa had returned. Emma, are you afraid?"Luisa's three words were like Emma's devil barrier. Almost everyone who had seen her had to mention her."Why should I be afraid? If Archie and I are destined to break up, I
The atmosphere between the grandfather and the grandson was a little tense. Archie's eyes were fixed on the surface of the lake. Old Master was also in a trance, as if he was recalling the past."Grandfather, is there any way to cancel the engagement with the Sandford Family?" Archie suddenly asked, but what he asked was the thing that Old Master was most worried about."Are you determined not to divorce?" Old Master asked. He sighed heavily. If they did not divorce, the consequences would be very serious.Archie's face was a little stiff and cold. His eyes were sharp and his tone was cold. "I will find time to negotiate with Dexon. I will help him enter the presidential election. He must agree to cancel the engagement."Old Master turned his head around and looked at his grandson's cold face in surprise. His brows were tightly knitted together. "Are you sure this is not to suppress the Sandford Family, but to help Dexon become the President?""No
When Emma woke up in the morning, she was at a loss. She had another nightmare last night.She dreamed that Archie and Luisa were in the same room. At first, they were drinking, then they took off their clothes. Then. . .She woke up and realized that it was not dawn yet. She continued to sleep, but she could not sleep. She opened her eyes and looked out the window, all the way until dawn.This kind of painful sleep made her look a little haggard, and her small face was pale and colorless.When she was eating breakfast, she heard Uncle Suan answer the phone. The person he called was young master, so it was Archie who called back?Emma's small hand holding the spoon tightened slightly. Last night, Archie did not call her at all, making her worry all night.She did not expect him to call Uncle Suan in the morning, but not her.This sense of loss made Emma startled. Her beautiful eyes stared at the table. Why did she become so emotional?
Looking at her stubborn little mouth, which was so pink that her lower lip was almost bitten into a circle by her white teeth, Archie could not help raising her chin. He did not let her look around and could only look at him.Emma struggled a little angrily but could not break free. She could only grumble, "Archie, what exactly do you want to do? I still have something to do. Please don't disturb my work, okay?""Don't bite!" The man's finger landed on her lower lip, which was slightly white, and he rubbed it. "Be good!"Emma did not like him using such a gentle tone to coax her. It was because he had flirted with other women last night.His fingers touched her lip, making her feel indescribably uncomfortable. She did not know where he got the strength from, but both of her hands pushed against the man's chest and pushed him away. "Don't use the fingers of the other woman that you have hugged to touch me. I feel dirty!"Emma instantly stood up with
The atmosphere in the kitchen suddenly became dull. Archie watched her cutting the vegetables and washing the pot without batting an eyelid. He was very familiar with her movements, as if she was someone who often did this kind of thing. His heart ached for no reason.In Quinsley Family, was she often ordered around like this?She had clearly suffered all kinds of grievances. Why was she so heartless as to let go of the heavy burden on her shoulders?Every time Gustav asked for help, she would bite the bullet and ask him for help.Emma also knew that she was being watched by Archie. Her eyes darkened slightly and she did not say anything else. She just focused on the matter at hand.When she poured the oil into the pot and fried two poached eggs, the entire room was filled with fragrance. The two of them didn't speak.Emma stared at the food in the pot. Behind her, Archie looked at her slender back.When she finished frying the two eg
Not long after the taxi drove out of the Grafton's Corporation building, Emma's phone suddenly rang. She didn't even need to look to know who it was.Emma still took out her phone to take a look. When she saw Archie's name constantly flashing on the screen, she didn't know if it was due to psychological effects, but she felt that his name had a domineering aura that couldn't be ignored.Emma bit her lips and answered the call.Just as she put it close to her ear, there was a man's angry roar from the other side, "Emma, I order you to come back immediately."Emma knew that because of the wrong gift of the tie, she had offended Archie. But didn't he punish her just now?That kind of wild and overbearing force that made her heart tremble had still shocked Emma to this day.She had never known that a man's physical strength would be so good. It was so good that it seemed as if it would crush her bones."Anyway, you've already eaten your n
