Semua Bab Love You Like I Used To? Forget It!: Bab 671 - Bab 680

This scar had made William feel unworthy of warmth or happiness. Yet, he couldn't resist longing for and wanting to possess them.Once he returned to his room, he thought about how he and Emilia would be collecting their marriage certificate the next morning.William was about to become her lawfully wedded husband, at least for now. The thought made his heart race so wildly that no amount of deep breathing could calm him down. He was so excited that he couldn't even sleep at all that night.When the rising sun cast its glow on his face, it finally pulled him out of his excited daze. William couldn't help laughing when he realized that he really had been too wound up to sleep all night.He felt ridiculous. His current self was someone his past self would've never imagined. William was an eternal playboy who never got burned, but even he couldn't escape the fate of falling in love.By the time Emilia woke up, William was already in the kitchen making breakfast. Golden sunlight poure

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. If there's ever anything I can do for you in the future, please don't hesitate to ask."Even if it meant she had to go through hell or high water, she would give it her all.William knew how deeply Emilia

Following the abductor's instructions, Emilia arrived at the designated location alone.She knew the people who had taken Lauren were members of that criminal organization. They had abducted her grandmother to force her to go with them. 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

Emilia's hands, which had been hanging at her sides, balled tightly into fists again.William definitely wouldn't make it within ten minutes. And if she handed over the research results, both she and Lauren would certainly meet their end.She had to buy more time. But no matter how fast her mind raced, she couldn't think of a way."Ms. Quill, are you stalling because you want me to send your grandmother to the afterlife first?" A black-clad man with a buzz cut stood beside the masked man. After the masked man spoke, he stepped forward and once again pressed a knife to Lauren's neck.At this sight, Emilia's fury overtook her, and she clenched her hands even tighter. Just as her nails were about to break the skin of her palms, the black-clad man holding her grandmother collapsed with a loud thud. Before anyone in the room could react, a team of people in specialized tactical gear rushed in.The sudden turn of events left everyone stunned. The masked man had been caught completely

Upon hearing about this incident, Irvin rushed to the hospital. By the time he arrived, William had already been transferred to a hospital room and had just regained consciousness.Emilia and Lauren were hovering around William, their concern plain to see. The three of them looked just like a family.Irvin had been about to step inside. But when he saw the scene before him, he paused outside the door, feeling like he didn't have the right to enter.Regardless of what the truth was behind William and Emilia's marriage, he had saved her most beloved grandmother. Not only that, he had even eliminated the threat of that criminal organization.Meanwhile, Irvin had done absolutely nothing. He truly was useless.These past weeks, he had been pushing himself to the limit because he desperately wanted to become the Hardwell family's head as quickly as possible. His main reason was to have a greater capability of protecting Emilia and to help her resolve the threat of that criminal organiza
