Chapter 425

Author: Millie Bridge
I found it strange and couldn't help feeling curious about what happened with Irvin. He was an obsessive man. No matter how much I pushed him away, he would never stop coming after me. But suddenly, he went quiet after what happened that night and stopped looking for me.

Still, I didn't try to find out why or ask Irvin anything. Whatever his reason was, the fact that he didn't come was exactly what I wanted.

Until one day…

When I was having a meal, the fishy smell of the food made me so nauseous I had to run to the bathroom to throw up.

The housekeeper, who had cooked, immediately put down the plates she was holding and followed me. Seeing me vomit so badly that even bile came out, she became extremely worried.

If anything happens to my grandmother, I'll make sure you never get your hands on it—ever!" she threatened.The masked man's expression darkened at a frightening rate. He glared coldly at Emilia and was about to say something.However, Emilia cut him off, "I'm not even asking you to let her go home. Just bring her out here. As long as she'

This was because they wanted to get their hands on her research.So, the moment Emilia walked in, she looked directly at the masked man sitting at the head of the room. "Let my grandmother go safely, and I'll go with you!" she firmly demanded.Then, to further ensure Lauren's safety, she quickly added, "As long as she's safe, I'll do whatever you want."The masked man seemed to raise an eyebrow at that. "Oh? Is that so?"Emilia answered him with an unwavering expression. "Yes."The masked man let out a low chuckle. "Alright then. Hand over all your research data for the AI chip you've developed, Ms. Quill."Emilia froze. She had known the criminal organization was after her research data. However, only she and her mentor knew that the chip had be

    Humans never truly shared the same joy or sorrow.While Irvin was collapsing under the weight of his pain, Emilia was at home in Claudeville City popping champagne with William. They were celebrating because Mr. J had finally agreed to work with them, moved by William's sincerity."Now, all we need to do is lure them out and force them to take action on domestic soil," William said. "That will severely weaken them." He added, raising his glass of champagne to Emilia, "Then, we'll strike while the iron is hot. Even if we can't destroy them completely, we'll cripple them enough that they won't have the will or the ability to cause you trouble again."Emilia raised her own glass in return, looking at him with genuine sincerity. "Thank you, Mr. Ashford, for everything you've done.
