Ch. 46..50
Chapter 46 The Man Walked out of the Old Warehouse "No, you have done nothing. You have nothing to do with whether Amy is alive or dead."
Emily was not trying to comfort her by saying this. she was telling the truth.
However, Emily was a little confused now. Was what happened last night related to Amy?
She picked up her cell phone from her desk and dialed a number, ".Joe, do me a favor."
No sooner had the phone hung up than Enron's takeaway arrived.
After sending away the delivery boy, Emily pushed Sally to the table, "Come on, you need to have something first."
Still feeling upset, Sally sat down at the table and opened the package with biting her lips.
Emily was about to go to prepare something for the class. But suddenly, Sally screamed behind her.
When Emily turned around, Sally was falling straight down off the chair.
If it wererft for her quick reaction, Sally would fall on the ground and knock on her head!
Looking at the takeaway box on the table, Emily found there was a little snake in
it!
They went too far! These people are really away too much!
"Sally, Sally. Wake up!"
"Emily, I am afraid, Emily. I didn't kill anyone, I didn't kill Amy, I didn't....
Sallys face turned pale. Suddenly her two eyes rolled over, and she completely lost her mind.
Sally was taken to an off-campus hospital, where doctors diagnosed her over- stressed and over-shock.
Although there was nothing serious physically, the psychological damage would take a long time to be covered.
"What about Sally?' When Joe rushed to the time, Sally had not woken up.
Terry and Emily kept beside the hospital bed, in order not to interfere with Sally s rest, they three went to the corridor.
"Someone played a prank on us by putting a small snake in our takeaway box.' Emily took the snake out.
jJoe was so frightened that he took two steps back. But he looked at it again. It was only a toy snake.
It was just made so realistic.
"Sally is frightened to faint by this thing?" Joe felt a little strange.
"She had been through so much in the last two days that her nerves were so fragile."
Sally was not brave enough and she was also suppressed for two days. The little snake was just the straw that broke the camel's back.
She threw the snake into the trash can and looked at Joe, "How about that? The thing I asked you to do, how did it go?"
"I've got the profiles of those three people, and I've temporarily blocked them from the Internet with your order. Now, it would not be easy for them to leave Bentson City."
Emily felt a sense of relief. She smiled and said, "Well done!"
Doe had a self-satisfted smirk on his face. He was inferior to Terry in study, fighting ability and appearance.
However, when it came to computer technology, he was absolutely confident that he could beat all the masters!
"So what are you going to do now?" Terry stared at Emily's face.
Recently this little girl acted so differently than before.
Especially the wit and calmness occasionally revealed from her eyes were not the traits that Emily used to have.
Emily stared at Joe.'How long will it take to find them?"
"As long as they still use phones or any electronic devices.'
"One hour is enough" At the mention of computer technology, .Joe was always in high spirits.
Three masked men in black. The leader among them called Eagle, and the other two called Jack and John.
These three people were planning to leave Bentson City today. But their information was completely unavailable in the
immigration and customs.
The data couldn't match. There was no way to leave.
But they didn't dare stay at Bentson City anymore as such a thing happened. So they hooked up a speedboat and wanted to escape by water that night.
When they just boarded the speedboat, suddenly a figure from behind pounced. "Ah... With a scream, Eagle rolled straight from the speedboat onto the beach.
The two men found a boy standing on the speedboat. They looked at each other, and immediately swung their fists towards the boy s face.
Terry didnt put these people in the eyes, knocking all three of them flat on their faces with a few blows.
"Who the hell are you? How dare you hit me!" Eagle got up and spat out the sand in his mouth, staring fiercely at Terry.
The two men, laying on the ground, were badly hurt and still unable to get up.
Emily walked over, stared at Eagle and asked in a cold voice, 'I am very curious about how you could escape back from the island where you were intercepted by Hunter last night?"
"We... Eagle snorted and glared at her coldly, "Bitch, mind your own...Ahi"
With one leg kicked by someone, Eagle fell flat on his stomach in the sand before he finished speaking!
"Phew... As he struggled to sit up, he was too frightened to stand up when he saw the man who was muscular and stepped to him coldly.
Looking at Emily standing not far from him, he said, "We, we escaped by ourselves.'
Emily did not struggle with this question. She asked again in a cold voice, "Who instructed you to kidnap Sally? The girl you tied to the island last night."
"What, what kidnapping?" Eagle thought for a while, and refused to admit it, We didnt do anything last night!"
"I have a surveillance video of you kidnapping Sally, right here on this dock. You have no choice but admit it."
Joe stepped forward and sneered, 'And you also made a pass on Sally, which can also be seen clearly in the video."
Eagle 's face turned pale. He glanced unconsciously at the dock not far away...
Damn it! They got the video!
Clutching the sand on the ground, he still refused to admit it, "All your videos are fake! We didn't do anything!"
Emily got confused. How could this man be so confident?
"Joe."
"Fine." Joe came over, took out his cell phone, looked at it and said, "At 9:25 last night, a sum of 100,000 dollars was transferred into your private account in another city."
Eagle 's face changed and he was frightened, "You... How do you..."
"The payer is a virtual account, but it's not that hard for me to crack."
It was a piece of cake for .Joe.
To him, deciphering a virtual account ¡is easier than finishing a meal.
Eagle s facial expression was getting more and more awful. Suddenly, he grabbed sand to scatter to Terry behind him and kicked to .Joe.
After that, he got up from the ground and ran to the dilapidated warehouse not far away.
Emily and Terry caught up with him.
doe looked at the two on the ground, but did not know whether to watch them or follow them.
"Eagle, stop! Even if you run away, I can find proof of your guilt!"
Emily s voice was disheveled in the sea breeze. "Tell me, 'she cried, "who is that behind you? Right now!"
Eagle didn't listen to her and turned and broke into the other side of the old warehouse.
Emily and Terry were about to chase in. But a tall figure from the warehouse walked out, completely blocked their way.
At that moment, Emily stared at the man in front of her with her heart trembling, "...Why?"
Chapter 47 You Know Who was Behind it Hunter stood in front of her like the strongest wall in the world. It was impossible to
cross.
"It was the person that kidnapped Sally last night, Hunter. Catch him!"
Emily wanted to look behind him, but the tall figure blocked all her sight.
She clearly felt that, at this moment, there was something wrong with the way Hunter looked at her.
His eyes were so cold. What was he doing here?
If he came here to help her, why did he let Eagle run away behind him?
"Hunter..' Emily wrinkled between the brows.
"Come back with me." Hunter took a step forward.
"What do you mean?" Emily jerked back a few steps before he could touch her.
Terry was standing behind her as if her greatest reliance all the time.
Emily's mind was confused at this moment. Because there were some things that she had not thought through, which seemed to come to light at the moment when she saw Hunter.
"You sent so many people out last night. You had already found their speedboat, but they were still at large today.
She felt a sudden desire to laugh, but she did not know what to laugh at.
"No one could escape from you, Hunter. Why should you let them go when you have captured them?"
Emily had identified that Amy was so terrified that she had to pretend to commit suicide.
Unexpectedly, it was not due to her fear! She took the road to ruin by herself.
What's more, Amy could not take out so much money all at once. she regards wealth as life. That day she risked her dignity for hundreds of thousands dollars.
How could she be willing to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars just to get Emily and Hunter's wedding called off?
Perhaps Amy had thought about making trouble for Emily. But this time, it was just a coincidence.
"You were protecting the guy behind it?" She retreated half a step Into Terry's arms.
Seized by the wrist, she was suddenly pulled over by Hunter.
She just touched Terry for one second and was pulled over right away!
With a darkened face, Terry caught Emily's other wrist, trying to pull her back.
There was a murderous look in Hunter s eyes, 'She is my fiance. Loosen your grip if you don't want to diet"
Hunter's eyes were gloomy. It was as if the air around him had grown cold. No one dared to stand up to him like this.
But Terry seemed to have no fear at all and even still caught Emily's wrist tightly.
'As long as Emily doesn't want to be by your side, you carry take her!" "Terry!" Joe shouted with a shiver.
Even now there was only Hunter himself standing here, they could not provoke him! didn't say that after Hunter stood so many people.
"Terry, she...she is his fiancee after all. You shouldn't...interfere."
It seemed that Hunter was bullying Emily now, but Emily didn't cry for help, did it?
As long as there was no cry for help, well, shall we...shall we stop making a conflict yet?
doe instinctively recoiled at the sight of Hunter. He wondered how Terry could be so bold as to provoke Hunter, who was so uncompromising in Bentson City!
Hunter stared at Terry with a cold look and subconsciously grab her wrist tighter. "IÝ you want your friend not to see the sun tomorrow, let him go on."
He didn't want to do anything to these little kids because he could see that Emily cared about them much.
However, there is a limit to what he can bearl
"Terry!"Realizing that Terry would not give up, Emily immediately turned around and looked at him, "Terry, I want to talk to him alone, you...go back with Joe first." "No!" Apparently she was not willing to go back with Hunterl
"Terry! This is about me and my fiance"
Emily originally just wanted to remind them that Hunter was her fiance after all. So he wouldn't hurt her.
But her words stung Terry to his heart.
He clenched his left fist in quick breathing.
"Terry, Sally is still in the hospital. She needs someone to take care of."
Emily stared straight into his eyes, with a trace of entreaty, "Terry, trust me, okay?"
Terry could never refuse Emily's request, and he always relented when she said something in that way.
As at this moment, when she looked at him imploringly, his five fingers that clasped around her wrist had unconsciously loosened.
Hunter pulled Emily directly into his arms.
His expression was cold. He turned around and led her away.
Terry wanted to catch up with them. Liam stepped forward, and stopped his way.
"Well, if you don't want to embarrass our young madam, you'd better listen to her and go back to take care of your friend first."
In fact, Liam admired the boy of about twenty very much.
Few people could still maintain such calm and stubborn when the young master was so angry. But clearly the boy in front of them could make it.
He seemed to have some similar temperament as Hunter. They were both aloof, ruthless, cruel!
If he could follow the young masters side, the future of him would be unlimited.
But it was clear that he was by no means the kind of man willing to subordinate himself to others.
Joe gave Terry a prod, and whispered, "Terry, we go back to see Sally first, this matter... Let Emily solve it by herself."
Joe was also confused. Did Hunter deliberately to let Eagle go just now? But it was Hunter that personally save Emily and Sally back last night.
Why did he save them but let the bad guys go? He couldnt figure it out.
"Terry,' Joe said in a low voice in his ear as he approached. "I haven't finished what Emily wanted me to check. Why don't we go back first?"
Terry saw that Emily and Hunter were in the car. He closed his eyes, suddenly turned around and walked away.
doe breathed a sigh of relief and immediately caught up with him.
The two bad guys on the beach earlier had already slipped away by this time.
Things looked so weird. What was the purpose of this inconsistent approach of Hunter?
Sitting in the car, Emily suppressed a burst of anger in the chest. She didn't turn to Hunter until she saw .Joe and Terry walk away.
"Hunter, I hope you can give me an explanation. Who is behind these three people?"
"You didn't have to know.' Hunter raised his hand and lit his cigarette.
His expressionless face was always cold and indifferent, and Emily did not know what he was thinking.
But what he said implied that he knew it but was unwilling to tell her.
"You know who's behind it! Why am I not allowed to check it out? Is this guy from your family?"
This time, he wouldn't even say a word.
Making sure that Terry and .Joe had left the beach, Emily immediately pushed
open the door, and was about to go out from it.
But her wrist was grasped tightly. She had been pulled back before she could get
off.
"Where are you going?" Hunter said in a clearly bad mood.
"It has nothing to do with you!" She looked back at him, with a vigorous wave of
her hand. But she could not free herself from his grip.
Now Terry and Joe were not here, she had no need to worry anything.
Staring fiercely at the man in front of her, she angrily said, "You have what younoveldrama
want to protect, I also have mine! The guys who hurt Sally, I will never let them go! Loosen your grip!"
Chapter 48 What did it Matter to Him if Ì was in Pain or not? "And then what? Call the police? Continue to check? What can you get in the end?"
Hunter looked at her in a calm and relaxed mood.
Emily bit her lips. She was so angry that she even wanted to tear up his expressionless face!
"You mean you want to protect them to the end?"
"No, I agree with you. Let them get what they deserve." He tapped on the window of the car.
Liam opened the door, looking at Emily respectfully, "Young madam, we have handed the three people to the police."
"And the man behind it? Why doesn't he need to be punished?" That's not enough!
"Young madam, the car accident was arranged by nobody. It was just an accident."
"And those who wanted to hurt Sally came up with a temporary idea at that time, which was different from what they agreed on before."
"The person behind did not mean to hurt Miss Cox, so the three people will pay for their actions."
Liam looked like a peacemaker, but what he said was not what Emily wanted.
"I will find out the mastermind!"
dust after saying this, Joe s call came.
Emily looked away and put it through, 'Joe, how is it?"
"Emily, the opposite is too powerful. They have damaged the banking system, deleting those information. Temporarily I can not find the information of the virtual account."
While Terry was driving back, .Joe traced up the information on the Internet with his old notebook in the car.
But unexpectedly those people could even destroy the banking system ¡in only more than an hour!
Emily slightly tightened the hand that took the phone, without any word. She knew that it was over.
In order to stop her from pursuing further, Hunter blocked off the road.
doe continued, "Emily, it is not completely out of reach, but I have to fix their system first, it will take some time."
"No, give it up." Emily closed her eyes and said in a hushed voice, "Try to comfort Terry. Go back and take good care of Sally.'
"Emily...."
"Listen to me!" Emily sharpened her tone.
So what would happen if we make it? She believed that in this respect Joe
absolutely could do something that other people can not.
If he had enough time, he could do it, fixing a system that no one else can fix,
even if the system itself had countless blocking procedures.
But what could they do after fixing it2
As long as they were not allowed to, they would never find a clue!
What She was most afraid of was that Joe might anger Hunter, which would lead to no good end.
After hanging up, she said coolly, "Let me off."
"You forgot about our agreement?" The voice of the Hunter was also cold, with no warmth at all.
"You said we'd go our separate ways after our engagement!"
"But I didn't say you could stay out all night!"
"You..."
"Back to the villa. He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and clasped her wrists, apparently with no willingness to let up.
"You are just my fiance, and you have no right to restrict my movements!" She just didt want to go back and face this manl
"It's not up to you to choose." When Hunter started to overbear up, there was no one who could sway himl
Liam sat in the driver's seat and peeked behind them in the interior mirror.
Then he stepped on the gas. The car pulled away from the dock and went onto the highway near the sea.
The doors were locked automatically when the car was driven. Meanwhile, Hunter loosened his grip on Emily's wrist.
Emily glared at him and rubbed her wrist.
As he looked down, he noticed that her wrist was red because of his scratch.
Did girls have such delicate skin? He didn't feel that he had applied much force. But, did it seem a little red and swollen?
"Does it hurt?' Hunter asked.
Emily turned her face away and ignored him.
What did it matter to him whether I was in pain or not? What's more, he hurt me. Now, he asked about it. How could I believe
the tears of cayman?
The condition of Sally was not known. And she really wanted to see her now. But she couldn't change anything that Hunter decided to do.
He said he'd take her back to the villa, and he wouldn't let her leave tonight.
This man was not only indifference, but also overbearing, unreasonable, and even sinister!
All touched feeling she got last night became hatred at this moment.
What was she to him? He wanted to protect the guys who injured Sally, who she vowed to sacrifice her own life to protect
Emily did not speak, and Hunter did not speak, either.
But he couldrt help looking at her wrist.
It was just a scratch. How did it get so swollen?
Was it necessary to call the family doctor?
The car stopped outside the main house.
Liam opened the doors of the car for them and handed the key to the servant.
The three walked towards the hall, did not expect to see the figure sitting on the sofa.
With her elegant attire and proper care, she looked only in her early thirties, while she was actually in her forties.
Emily recognized the woman. But in the previous life, Emily didn't have much contact with her.
She was the current wife of Hunter's father, and the own mother of the second young master in the family, Manson. Her name was Sarah.
Noticing they were here, Sarah stood up, looked at them and said, 'Hunter, you come back."
Hunter relieved the gloom from his face and said, "Aunt Sarah."
Emily called out weakly, "Aunt Sarah."
Sarah nodded and looked at the sand on Emily's body. She was surprised.
And she smiled again, "Why did go to the beach so late at night. Young people are indeed full of energy.'
Emily just bowed his head and said nothing.
There was no need to behave as she was in a bad mood in front of the elders, so
she said, "! got myself dirty, Aunt Sarah. I go up to change a suit of clothes first."
"Fine.' Sarah nodded.
Emily turned and went upstairs without even looking at Hunter.
"Why does the little girl seem to be in a temper?" Sarah sat down on the sofa with Hunter, smiling softly.
"This young girl just got married. You should spoil her a little. She left her home and married into our Jackson family. She would inevitably be a little uncomfortable."
Hunter also just nodded, without saying a word.
Sarah gave a shallow sigh, adjusted the expression on the face and said, "Hunter,
I came to apologize to you today.'
"What is il?" He took the tea from the servant, holding it in his hand without
drinking it.
Sarah said, "I just heard that Manson hit Emily in her house. I really... I really have
no idea about how to educate him."
There was an apologetic, helpless look in her eyes.
"I did not educate him well. He got no strict discipline since he was a child, so he
is so arrogant and insolent now. Hunter, I apologize in his place. I hope you can
give him a chance and forgive him."
Hunter did not speak, which made Sarah a little uneasy.
"Hunter, he is your own brother after all. It's all because me, as his mother, didn't educate him well..."
"He has been punished, and there is no need to bring it up again."
Hunter put down his glass, "Aunt Sarah, it's getting late. [II let someone send you back to rest."
"All right.' Sarah knew that he did not want to talk about it. What she could do was keeping silent and no longer mentioning it as well.
She got up, thought for a moment and said, 'By the way, the lordship has decided
to have a family dinner at home tomorrow. You must take Emily home early, and
let her get acquainted with our family.'
But Hunter was anxious to go upstairs. He just nodded and did not pay much attention anymore.
Emily s hand might still hurt. If I brought the doctor in, would she be still mad and not let the doctor examine her?
Chapter 49 The Arrogant Master Jackson When Hunter went upstairs, Emily's door was closed.
He was a little hesitant, thinking whether he should knock on that door or not.
He was always the almighty young master of the .Jackson family. But now, he didn't even dare to open a door. This seemed a bit...unbelievable.
Liam White came from behind and whispered, "Young master, how about I go take a look at maam?"
"What do you want to look at?" Hunter looked displeased.
She was his woman. How could he let others see?
"I didn't mean that," Liam was startled by his stern look. My God, how did he understand his words in such a way?
He just saw that the fearless young master didn't even dare to open a door and wanted to help him.
He didt mean any harm, sob sob!
Hunter finally walked up to that door and raised his hand to knock.
It was his woman's room. He didn't need anyone else to open the door.
There was no response from the person in the room. She ignored him!
Hunter's eyebrows furrowed. In the past, whoever dared to treat him like this, the person would never have the chance to appear in front of him again.
Even Liam was a little worried. Will the young master be so angry that he kicks the door open?
Although the young master usually looked cold and calm, his temper was sometimes very fiery.
But to his surprise, Hunter didn't kick the door. He knocked once more patiently.
Still no response.
Liam was a little uneasy. Maams temper didn't seem to be any better than the young master s.
This was the third time. Hunter knocked on Emily's door. This time, he knocked a little heavier.
The person inside finally walked over. The footsteps were approaching.
Liam let out a sigh of relief. He wanted to hurry back to his room and not interfere with the couple's sweet talk. However, his shoulders suddenly felt a tension, violently, he was pulled over by Hunter.
So, when Emily opened the door, what she saw was a stunned Liam.
"What?" she didn't look friendly. She was in a bad mood tonight.
"I, I...came to greet ma am, ha, haha..."
Liam felt so awkward that he even got goosebumps. Young master, you...just now who was the one saying boldly that his woman doesn't need anyone else to look at?
Now when mom came to open the door, he acted as if he was not part of this, standing at the side and watching indifferently.
But, you're the one who wanted to see maam, okay?
But of course, Liam wouldn't dare to expose him. He could only force himself to smile, "Ma am..."
"No need for you to greet me!" Emily turned around and was about to slam the door shut with force.
A large palm reached out from behind Liam and gently pushed back the door which was about to close.
"Although he is a subordinate, he came to greet you out of goodwill. So why humiliate him like that?"
The tall figure leaned against the door, looked cold and arrogant. But, if you looked closely, you would see a sign of nervousness in his eyes.
Is the young master...afraid of being kicked out by maam?
The nervousness in him, Liam could see clearly.
But he didn't understand, why such an arrogant man would want to come and get the cold shoulder?
Right now, maam doesn't seem to be easy to deal with at all.
Usually, if something like this happened, the young master would never try to fawn the person. He would have just kicked the person in the face.
Ma am seemed...a little different to the young master.
Emily looked at Hunter, who was beside the door and snorted, "What does it have to do with you?"
She wasn't trying to humiliate anyone. Liam was just doing what he told him to do and hadn't done anything wrong.
Even if there were anything wrong, Hunter would be the one in the wrong. She wouldn't pick on Liam unreasonably.
She just didt want to see him and his people. Did he even want to take away that right?2
"'m just reminding you that subordinates are people too," Hunter said coldly.
Liam almost wanted to cry. He never thought that he had such a place in the young master's heart.
Itfs so touching that the young master cared so muuch about his feelings! Sob sob...
"If you're upset, you can give him a good beating. A tough guy like him would rather be beaten than scolded."
After giving him a beating to let off steam, would she feel better?
Snap!
Liams heart was shattered into pieces.
Liam held his chest. This time, he really felt like crying.
Young master, you just wanted an excuse to walk into moms room, so why did
you want me to get beaten and scolded?
He's also afraid of pain!
Emily's gaze finally landed squarely on Hunter s face, but she remained expressionless.
"I don't want to beat or scold anyone, Master Jackson, and I don't understand,
why did you come here and say all this nonsense to me?"
With the character of Master .Jackson, he wouldn't say half a word when he could keep quiet.
But tonight, he kept on saying all this nonsense. What did he want?
"Just happened to be passing by," he certainly didn't want to admit that he was the one who knocked on the door three times.
Liam, who knew the truth, felt difficult to hold in.
It turns out that people with high IQs are most likely to have really low EQs.
His young master was so successful in the business world, to the point of invincible. But, his excuse to see ma am sounded so lame.
Also, what ma am said was right. The young master s words tonight were a bit redundant and silly.
"Now, then, may I be left alone?" Emily didn't want to see the two of them who were blocking the doorway anymore.
Hunter's gaze, however, remained fix on her wrist.
From the moment she opened the door, he saw her wrapping a towel around her
wrist.
For several times he tried to ask her about it, but what came out from his mouth was a mess even to himself.
But after all, he just wanted to ask a question.
"Does your hand...still hurt?"
"Is this a concern for me, Master Jackson?" she smirked.
Hunter s arrogant pride was hurt again. Why ¡is this woman so ungrateful?
"The old man ¡is holding a family banquet tomorrow. I just didn't want you to embarrass me in front of the .Jackson family."
"dodn't worry, even if I embarrass anyone, it won't be you, Master Jackson!" She reached out her hand and was about to close the door once more.
But his big palm pressed against the door and wouldn't let her keep himself out.
"Get out of my way. I want to rest now!" Emily looked displeased.
"This is my place, and no one is in charge of where I want to go," he not only didn't step out of the way, instead, he walked in.
This was quite a good excuse. It was his villa anyway. The whole area was his, including this room.
"Well, then is it okay if I get out?" she hadn't wanted to stay here tonight anyway. She wanted to go visit Sally Cox.
If Hunter hadn't brought her back, she'd be in the hospital right now. Hunter glanced at Liam, who was still stunned at the door. Without hesitating, Liam immediately closed the door.
"Liam, what are you doing?" Emily almost wanted to kick the door.
Liam, who was guarding outside, said, "It's getting late. Maam and the young
master should rest early."
These two, stop tormenting him!
It was not easy to be his assistant. Even when they were quarreling, he had to be the one to reconcile.
Sigh! The young master was so smart and intelligent, why wouldrt he just do it by force?
It's not like him at all to make it so awkward!
The story is updated daily. 10 chapters a day, everyone!
Chapter 50 Stop Trying my Patience In fact, Hunter was also thinking about it.
If he wanted to check if Emily's wrist was badly injured, why didn't he just pull her over by force?
But, if he did so, would it hurt her even more?
"Liam is outside. You can leave,' he sat in a chair and stared at her.
"What are you trying to do?" Emily already knew that she couldn't leave, so was he just here to show ofĺf now?
When did Master .Jackson become so free? The group went out of business?
Hunter suddenly stood up and walked towards Emily.
She panicked and subconsciously stepped back, "What the hell do you want to do? Master Jackson, I already have no way and no intention to find out who is to blame, so stop pushing me too far!"
She was so angry that she wanted to cry!
Iĺ it were anyone else, she would have resisted to the end. But, he was Hunter Jackson, a man she knew she couldn't fight against no matter what!
Since she was destined to lose, destined not to be able to revenge for Sally, why doesn't he just leave her alone?
Hunter walked up to her. Emily was usually afraid of him. But, she could occasionally be so brave for the sake of her friends.
Emily glared at him, "You..."
He suddenly reached out and picked her up in his arms, walking towards the bed.
"Let go of met" Emily pushed him hard. She accidentally hurt her wrist again.
Her face was full of pain, and Hunter noticed it.
Hunter placed her on the bed and took away the towel on her wrist, trying to pull her hand out.
Emily, however, pulled her hand back hard even with the pain.
He frowned, said unhappily, "Emily, there is a limit to my patience, must you treat me in such way?"
"I can get along with you if you don't tell me who's the person behind all of this!"
He held her hand in his. She couldn't break free. She looked away, not willing to look at him.
"You better give up."
"Hunter Jackson!"
He didn't speak and just looked at her wrist.
At the beach, he didn't mean to hurt her. But, he gripped her too heavily after all.
Hunter opened the drawer and took out the medical kit inside. He stopped talking and poured the medicine onto her wrist, rubbing it gently.
Emily really couldn't understand this man. Sometimes he was cold as ice, and sometimes he seemed to treat her well.
But in the end, all the confusion turned into calm. Whether he was good or not, it was just a contractual relationship.
“Im fine already. Please go back, Master .Jackson.^ What kind of person he was, she knew better than anyone else.
He wouldn't say. Even if she put a knife to his neck, he wouldn't say.
Hunter looked at her red and swollen wrist and continued rubbing it gently, without speaking,
The atmosphere suddenly became a bit strange. Emily tried to withdraw her hand, but he wouldn't allow it.
It was just a little red and swollen. Why did he have to be like this?
Once again, she tried to withdraw her hand. This time, Hunter finally let go of her and stood up.
"Since You're my fiance, I won't join forces with anyone to harm you or your friends."
Was that what she was worried about?
Now that he's given the promise, is she okay now?
Emily was surprised. She looked up at him. Although Master Jackson was still
showing a cold and arrogant face, what he said was believable.
His promises were never given lightly, but when they were, they would be made.
"They..."
"Among all your friends, I'll only acknowledge Sally."
Emily bit her lips. She had mixed feelings.
Did he mean that if Terry and Joe did something that upset him, he couldn't
guarantee that he wouldn't harm them?
dJust why did he dislike Terry and Joe?
"IÍ you hurt Terry and Joe, I worry just ignore it."
"What can you do?" The fact that she was so protective of other men made Hunter unhappy.
Especially Terry. He's also a man. Could he not see the boy protective feelings for her?
She was Hunter Jackson's woman. She didn't need another man to protect her. Emily's heart, which just calmed down, was once again hurt by Hunter's words. She said coldly, "Yes, I can't do anything. But even if I can, I won't let you hurt them"
"Trying to anger me again?" he could condone for anything else. But, how could he tolerate when she repeatedly provoked him for another man's sake? "Emily, stop trying my patience!"
"I don't need any patience from Master Jackson, you and I are merely in a contractual relationship!"
The phrase "contractual relationship" made Hunter irritated.
He stared at her stubborn little face. His eyes became colder and colder.
"Alright. Since you remember our contract, it's time to recognize who you are."
"Iĺ you dare to hook up again out there and do something that affects my reputation, I won't just touch them. [Í tear them apart!"
He just couldt communicate with this woman!
Since her hand was fine, there was no need for him to stay here.
Hunter turned around and was about to leave. Unexpectedly, a pillow flew over
from behind, hitting him on the back.
It didn't hurt. But, it damaged his dignity.
"Emily, don't be ungrateful!" He had been indulgent enough with her!
"Hunter Jackson, you can insult me, but you can't insult my friend!"
Emily was so angry that she clenched her fist. He simply believed the rumors and gossips out there that she was hooking up with Terry and the others.
If Master Jackson wanted to hurt someone, he didn't need to find any excuse. He could just simply tear him apart.
After all, he's a savage and overbearing manl
He walked out with an angry face.
Bang! The door slammed heavily behind him. He even heard a click' sound. The door was locked from inside.
Hunter s already not-so-good-looking face became even worse now. His mood was extremely bad.
Liam was still guarding at not far away. He hadn't dared to leave yet.
After hearing their quarrel and seeing the young master walk out with a long face, he felt terrified.
This was the first time in his life that he had witnessed the young master arguing with someone else. Yup, the young master never argues.
If the young master was angry, he would just destroy the person!
"Well, how about...how about I have someone to get those two brats out of the country so they can never come back?"
After all, the two boys were the ones who upset the young master. So, just get them out of sight should be good.
"Young master, tonight I'll....
"Go away!"
..Liam watched as the young master walked into a room not far away. He also watched as the door was slammed shut. He blinked and looked aggrieved. Tonight must be his unlucky night. Why was everything so unfavorable towards him?
He was really just trying to make the young master happy. Why did the young master seem even more unhappy after hearing his advice?
Standing on the corridor, he looked at the door in front of him, then looked at the other door not far away. He hesitated.
Should he explain to maam that the young master was not scared of messing with the person behind this, but just can't?
Moreover, the young master really didn't know anything before the incident
happened.
Would ma'am...believe that?
