Ch. 176..180: Stay Around You Now And Forever (Hunter Jackson) Chapter 176-180
Chapter 176: Two Sisters Were with Mr. Hunter Together
When Mr. Hunter and Emily arrived, Matriarch had been rescued.
There was another person who came out with Matriarch, Wendy!
"Send her in quickly. Treat her well, and definitely not let anything happen to her!"
Patriarch was directing at the scene, not only to let everyone take care of Matriarch, but also to take care of Wendy!
"I heard that she brought Matriarch out of the fire."
In the corner, two little maids were discussing this matter in a low voice.
"This lady from the Gale family is so powerful. She dared to save Matriarch in the fire. Was she not afraid of dying in it?"
"Yes, this fire is so fierce. Everyone thought that Matriarch would definitely..."
"Thanks to Miss Wendy. If it weren't for her, Matriarch would really be gone."
"You see how good Patriarch is so nice to her now. No wonder Matriarch loves her so much, she is really good to Matriarch too."
"Look at Miss Emily, Mr. Hunter's future wife. Matriarch also loves her so much, but what was she doing when Matriarch had an accident?"
"She just knows to pester Mr. Hunter, doesn't she?"
"Matriarch is so kind to her...
Suddenly, an arrogant figure came into their view. The two little maids hurriedly lowered their heads in fright, and said in unison, "Mr. ... Mr. Hunter."
"Get out.'
Hunter said indifferently. He walked towards the medical room with Emily.
Behind them, the two maids suddenly cried and begged for mercy, "Mr. Hunter, we don't dare to gossip anymore. Mr. Hunter, don't drive us away."
"Mr. Hunter, we...we know we were wrong. Mr. Hunter!"
However, Hunter was still indifferent and had no intention of changing his mind at all.
Emily walked by his side, wanting to look back.
In the end, she followed Hunter without saying a word.
It was really not a good thing to talk too much in this kind of family.
Even if Mr. Hunter didn't drive them away today, something would happen sooner or later if they still gossiped the host.
The two kept begging for mercy behind them, but Mr. Hunter didn't even look back.
The two bodyguards came to take them away.
Probably they were in desperate, so they couldn't help cursing, "Mr. Hunter, you stupid. You even don't know the woman around you well!"
"Matriarch loves her so much, but what did she do when Matriarch had an accident?"
"Miss Wendy risked her life to save Matriarch. What did Emily do?"
"She is so ugly, but you still protect her. Mr. Hunter, are you really blind?"
The two were finally taken away.
Emily looked at the road under her feet without saying a word.
She was indeed a little guilty, and felt distressed when she thought of Matriarch's kind face.
"When the fire happened, you were not by her side. It was not your fault that you couldn't come to rescue in time."
"I know." She would not deny herself because of others' misunderstandings.
But she just felt sorry for Matriarch.
Many people were waiting outside the medical room. Patriarch went in to accompany Matriarch, and the others could only wait here.
"How is she?" Hunter walked to the doctor.
"Matriarch choked a lot of smoke. Now Doctor Peter is taking care of her.”
The doctor came out just to report the news to everyone.
"Mr. Hunter, Mr. Rupert. Please rest assured, Doctor. Peter said there is no life- threatening, but Matriarch is a little weak and needs a good rest."
However, everyone couldn't be relieved.
Matriarch was in this situation. Originally, she was in poor health. Besides, this kind of thing happened again...
The doctor's words lingered in everyone's mind again.
She might not be able to survive this cold winter. Now, she inhaled heavy smoke again and was frightened.
It was really hard to say how long Matriarch could live.
Mr. Rupert asked, "When can we go in and see her?"
"Doctor Peter said it's best not to visit first, let her rest."
"So," the woman next to Mr. Rupert came out and asked softly, "How about the lady named Wendy?"
Emily looked up.
This was the first time she had seen this lady since she heard the name "Sarah" last time from Amy.
Amy had already been admitted to the mental hospital. When she was frightened,
she once told them that the person who revealed the news to her.
Sarah, what Amy said at the time was this name.
The doctor looked at Sarah, and said softly, "The young lady's condition is more
serious than that of Matriarch, but fortunately, it's nothing serious."
"Did Patriarch ask someone to take care of her?"
"Patriarch just cares about Matriarch, but he ordered to treat Miss Wendy well."
"I will go in and see Matriarch. I will be quiet not to disturb her.'
Patriarch didn't care much about other people's other matters. He just wanted to confirm the situation of Matriarch.
The doctor nodded and said, "Mr. Rupert, I'll take you in. By the way, Mr. Hunter, Patriarch asked you to see Matriarch too."
Mr. Hunter and Mr. Rupert followed the doctor and entered the medical room
together.
Sarah immediately ordered the butler, "Send two maids to take care of Miss
Wendy. She is the great benefactor of our Jackson family and must take good care of her."
"Okay, I'm going to arrange now." The old butler was about to arrange personnel.noveldrama
Sarah said again, "I should go and see it myself."
"OK."
After the two left together, the daughters of the Jackson family looked at Sarah
disdainfully.
Tabby curled her lips and snorted coldly, "This woman really knows how to take advantage the situation."
As soon as she said, everyone understood.
Wendy rescued Matriarch. Now, in the eyes of Patriarch, Wendy was the great
benefactor to their Jackson family.
In the future, Patriarch would also be very grateful to Wendy. Maybe he would let Wendy stay and let her live in the house of the Jackson family.
In this way, not only Matriarch liked Wendy, but also Patriarch would be grateful to
her.
Therefore, having a good relationship with Wendy was equivalent to pleasing
Matriarch and Patriarch in one go.
Sarah was really cunning!
Tabby knew that this woman was not easy!
"She pretends to be gentle, and looks incontestable. In fact, she is the most
scheming one!"
"Stop it. Sarah still has a man here. Are you not afraid that she will tell Sarah?"
Snowy glanced at Emily.
Originally, Snowy had been punished and was not allowed to go out.
Now that something happened to her grandma, she came to see her grandma, so
no one would blame her.
Finally, she could come out to breathe the fresh air.
Tabby glanced at Emily sideways. Anyway, she didn't like girls of the Gale family.
They were all so annoying. They all came to the Jackson family to share the likes
of grandpa and grandma.
Especially last time, the eldest brother punished her for Wendy. Now she hated Wendy and Emily even more.
Seeing that both father and eldest brother were not there, Snowy dared to mock
them.
"I said that your sisters are really amazing. Don't you feel shameless to be with
my eldest brother together?"
"When you were away, your elder sister, Wendy was with my brother. Now you
are back, but your elder sister is not leaving yet. Are you three going to be
together?"
The two sisters were with Mr. Hunter together?
The eyes of the servants and bodyguards fell on Emily in tacit.
If what Miss Snowy said was true, these two sisters would be really... too
awesome, right?
Chapter 177: Did It Start from This Misunderstanding
The words of Snowy were indeed too presumptuous.
The servants were all whispering. Although no one dared to talk nonsense, the gazes they fell on Emily was also different from before.
Emily looked at Snowy expressionlessly, and said lightly, "It turns out that Miss Snowy thinks that your eldest brother is an asshole. He has already had sex with my sister, right?"
"I, I Never said that. Don't get me wronged!"
Seeing Emily taking out the phone, Snowy's face sank. She said defensively, "What are you going to do?"
"Nothing. Just text a message to your eldest brother and ask him when he had sex with Wendy."
"You...do you dare to file a complaint to my elder brother?" It was shameful to complain about this kind of thing!
This woman was too mean!
"No. I just want to question him. After all, I am his fiancée, so I have this right."
Emily looked at Snowy with a serious expression, without any provocative expression.
"I don't know about what happened between him and my sister. Since you have said it now, of course I have to ask clearly.'
In her capacity, it was normal to ask it clearly. If she didn't ask, others would feel weird.
"No! You are not allowed to ask!" Snowy panicked and stopped Emily immediately when she saw that Emily was really going to text the message.
"Why can't I ask?" Emily glared at her with an unhappy expression.
"Miss Snowy, if your fiancé is with other women, can you turn a blind eye to it?"
"I...I..." Snowy was glared at by Emily, so she subconsciously stepped back.
"Miss Snowy. You dare not ask, but it doesn't mean that others are afraid to ask. Don't impose your own ideas on others."
Emily stepped forward again, forcing Snowy to take another two steps back.
"I'm not like you. Even if my fiancé is very powerful, as long as he is my man for a
day, he must be loyal to me, otherwise, I don't want such a man!"
Snowy retreated suddenly. This time, she directly bumped into Tabby.
Emily's aura made the servants and bodyguards around her stunned.
Two sisters slept with a man together? Now seeing Miss Emily look like this, who would dare to say such things?
Miss Emily had said that unless Mr. Hunter was no longer her man, he was never allowed to get close to other women!
This was what a fiancée should say. What Snowy said was way out of line.
Suddenly, everyone became a little disgusted with the rumors that Snowy made
up.
Anyway, Mr. Hunter was her brother.
She even said dirty words about her eldest brother and sister-in-law and spread rumors like this which made others sick.
The wealthy families were rife with troubles. It was true that people born in wealthy families really didn't have the affection of brothers and sisters.
Snowy wanted to say something to justify herself, but she didn't know what to say.
For a time, she was speechless.
Tabby smiled lightly and pulled Snowy behind her.
She looked at Emily and said with a smile, "We heard that your sister has been lived in WongRiver Pavilion. Besides, she calls our eldest brother so intimately. Snowy is so young and doesn't understand that, so she would misunderstand they have an unusual relationship."
"It's not a rumor. It seems a little provocative if you complain it to the eldest brother."
Emily glanced at her and said lightly, "I don't care who spreads the rumors. I only care about whether my man is loyal to me."
"Of course I am loyal to you." Suddenly, a low voice came from the door.
Everyone looked up. They found that the doctor opened the door of the room and
Mr. Hunter stepped out from inside.
He walked up to Emily and asked faintly, "What? Any doubt?"
"Of course I have no doubt, but...
"Emily, don't talk nonsense!" Snowy panicked. Her legs almost weakened in fright.
The ban given to her by her elder brother had not been lifted yet.
What if she made the elder brother angry and he gave her another week not to allow going out?
Tabby also stared at Emily. If this woman dared to talk nonsense, she would definitely make Emily have a bad life in the Jackson family in the future!
Don't feel their big brother protected her, then she thought that she could do whatever she wanted to do in the Jackson family. The big brother couldn't stay at home all the time.
If Emily dared to make mischief, she would teach her a good lesson!
Emily smiled faintly, looked up at Hunter, and said, "Nothing. We are just discussing the relationship between men and women."
"Just a gossipy between girls. Do you want to join us?"
Hunter was obviously not interested. He said, "I'll go see Wendy, shall we go together?"
"Okay."
Wendy was in the medical room next door, with other doctors and nurses taking care of her.
Sarah was also there with two maids. She was taking care of Wendy diligently.
Seeing Sarah, Emily suddenly remembered Amy's words.
Emily couldn't help but glanced at Sarah more.
Was this gentle Mrs. Sarah really quiet and kind, or was she just pretending?
The Jackson sisters seemed to hate her very much. Was it because she had robbed their mother's position, or did she really do something which made others hate?
"Emily, you are here too."
Seeing Emily walking in, Sarah greeted Hunter and immediately pulled Emily over.
She lowered her voice and whispered, "Emily, your sister... may have a little...little problem on her face.'
She sighed slightly, seemingly sorry.
"She is such a beautiful girl. I didn't expect that it would burn her face
unexpectedly..."
"What?" Emily was stunned, "Wendy is disfigured?"
"No, no, she won't be disfigured, but there is a scar on the chin."
For a girl who looked so perfect, this scar was also desperate enough.
Sarah said, "When your sister wakes up, you have to comfort her. This time, for saving Matriarch, she has sacrificed a lot."
Emily didn't speak, but Hunter walked past her to the bed. He looked at Wendy
who was in coma.
The chin was indeed injured and burned.
In the future, she could make a minimally invasive surgery, but it was not asnoveldrama
natural as before.
"She saved Grandma?" he asked.
"Yes, Mr. Hunter, it is all the credit of Miss Wendy. She risked her life to rescue
Matriarch, or else..."
The doctor shook his head, still having lingering fear.
"You know Matriarch is in poor health. If she is saved a little later, I'm afraid..."
The doctor stopped speaking and did not dare to continue.
Hunter stared at Wendy with no expression on his face, but the chill in his eyes
disappeared.
For him, anyone who was kind to Matriarch was his family.
What's more, now Wendy had saved Matriarch.
It was normal that he would pity Wendy.
Emily tried to persuade herself, but when she saw Hunter's eyes watching Wendy
warmer, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
In the previous life, in order to get Hunter, Wendy let others hit her by a car.
In this life, did Hunter still have to entangle with her?
Emily didn't know how Wendy gained the trust of Mr. Hunter in the previous life,
so that Mr. Hunter trusted her step by step.
So in this life, could it be that it started with this accident?
Chapter 178: After all, He Had Never Liked Emily
A phone ringtone sounded.
Emily was taken aback. She immediately went out of the room and took out the phone.
It was Sally's call...
In the early of the morning, before dawn, Sally called her. Emily had a bad feeling.
She answered the phone, "Sally, what happened?"
On the phone, Sally's anxious voice came, "Emily, something happened to Aryan."
Emily turned around to glance inside the room.
Hunter was still standing by the bed. She didn't know what he was talking with the doctor about.
It seemed that Wendy's most serious problem was the chin, no life-threatening.
Emily only hesitated slightly and left the medical room.
By coincidence, she saw Patriarch and Peter coming out of the medical room next door.
"Peter, how is Grandma now?" She was anxious now, so she didn't say hello to Patriarch.
Peter said lightly, "There is nothing serious for the time being, but she is too weak.
I don't know when she can wake up.'
"Are there any emergencies?"
"It shouldn't be."
"Thank you." Confirming that Matriarch wouldn't have any problems, Emily immediately said to Patriarch, “Patriarch, there is something urgent in my school. I have to go back to school first."
Patriarch didn't say a word. At this time, he didn't care about who left and who wanted to stay.
Emily also knew that Patriarch was in a bad mood now. It would be no surprise that he ignored her.
She nodded at Patriarch and returned to the outside of Wendy's ward.
Originally, she wanted to say goodbye to Hunter, but he was still listening to the doctor.
Emily was not good to bother, so after texting him a message, she immediately walked towards the garage.
There was a driver on duty in the garage for the convenience of picking up and dropping off the Jackson family.
After Emily left, Tabby and Snowy immediately surrounded Patriarch.
"Grandpa, how is Grandma now? Can I go in and see her?"
Peter said immediately, "Patriarch and Mr. Rupert just went to see it. Now, let Matriarch rest first."
Matriarch hadn't woken up yet. It didn't make much sense for them to go in to see to her.
The key was that everyone who entered must be disinfected, which would increase the burden on nurses inside.
Tabby nodded and said nothing.
But Snowy looked at the direction Emily left, angrily!
"Grandma loves her so much. I didn't expect after something happened to Grandma now, she didn't even see Grandma and left like this."
Tabby's eyes were also cold. Although her expression was not as rich as Snowy, she just looked at Emily
disdainfully.
"After all, she's not the Jackson family's child. How can you expect her to feel sorry for our Grandma? Grandma is not her family at all."
"You two, go back and rest early." Mr. Rupert came out from inside and glanced at the two of them.
"I see. Let's go." Tabby nodded.
Snowy still muttered, "We want to see Grandma. We are worried about Grandma."
"I know you two are good, but Grandma is weak now. Seeing her is not good for her."
Rupert waved his hand and said lightly, "Go back to rest first. When Mom wakes
up, I will have someone to inform you immediately."
The sisters finally left.
Sarah just came out of the medical room next door. Seeing Patriarch and Rupert,
she immediately came to them.
"Dad, Rupert."
"How is that girl?" Patriarch asked.
Although his face was still expressionless, Sarah could tell at a glance that Patriarch cared about Wendy.
She honestly said, "She has inhaled a lot of heavy smoke, but it is not life- threatening. The doctor said it would be fine to rest for a few days. But..."
"But what?" Rupert hurriedly asked.
Sarah sighed, "Her chin was burned, but the area is not large. It can be repaired by an operation."
With the current medical technology, it was basically possible to be repaired.
But she indeed had been hurt. At most, from the distance, others couldn't see the scar. If others walk too close, they could still see some traces.
"I heard that this child is called the first lady in Bentson City." Sarah looked at the
two and stopped talking.
Even if Sarah didn't say it out, they would understand.
The first lady was not only talented and virtuous, but also was beautiful.
But now, her beauty had been damaged. She could never be the first lady anymore.
This kind of competition between the little girls was nothing to them, but she got
hurt because of saving Matriarch.
"This girl has always lived in Hunter's place before?" Patriarch asked.
Sarah nodded, "Matriarch seems to like Wendy very much. In order to take care
of Matriarch, Wendy lives in Wong River Pavilion of Hunter."
"Why did she choose Hunter's place?" Patriarch frowned lightly.
Sarah said, "It should be because Emily also lives in Wong River Pavilion. It's
more convenient for her to live in her sister's house.'
Patriarch didn't say anything. Looking back, he saw Hunter just coming out from inside.
They looked at each other but didn't say anything. Hunter had already read
Emily's message. She must have some emergency.
He was planning to let Liam ask what was going on.
"From now on, this girl will live in WongRiver Pavilion until she is fully recovered."
Patriarch originally thought that Hunter would refuse. He had already figured out
his excuses to convince Hunter.
But Hunter just nodded without saying anything.
After greeted everyone, Hunter walked away.
"It looks like Hunter doesn't seem to resist Wendy very much." Sarah looked at
Hunter's back, thoughtfully.noveldrama
Mr. Hunter hated women's approaching the most which was something everyone
knew.
But before, he let Wendy live in WongRiver Pavilion, and now he had no objection
to Patriarch arrangement.
Were the rumors true? Did Mr. Hunter and Miss Wendy have a relationship?
Patriarch seemed to be thinking about something.
Sarah said, "Dad, you should go back and rest first. I'll take care of it here."
Rupert also said, "Let her stay here. Dad, you go back and rest early."
Patriarch looked back. Peter nodded at him, "Nothing will happen. Don't worry."
Patriarch left. Peter also greeted Rupert and Sarah, and then he went back to take care of Matriarch.
Rupert looked at Patriarch's back and waited for him to walk far enough before saying, "Dad seems to be very concerned about this girl named Wendy.'
"I understand. I will take care of her and let her get better soon.' Sarah said immediately.
"Prepare something and send it over immediately after she lives in WongRiver Pavilion." Rupert ordered.
The person Patriarch and old lady liked was also his favorited.
Now Patriarch specifically let Wendy live in WongRiver Pavilion. Rupert could
more or less guess
Patriarch's thoughts.
The first lady in Bentson. Even if there were some flaws in her chin, she was still a
very beautiful girl.
She was beautiful, kind, and Matriarch liked her. She was better than Emily who
was ugly and had a bad
reputation.
Patriarch was planning for the future child of Hunter. After all, he had never liked
Emily.
Chapter 179: How Is She Now?
Aryan went out in the early morning. Because his head was so painful, he went out to buy some headache medicine.
Unexpectedly, when he came back, he was accidentally injured by someone who was fighting on the side of the road.
"You just didn't listen to me. I let you rest. You didn't listen. Now, you get hurt. You have to rest."
Emily didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing. After returning the office, she asked Terry to take him to the hospital.
Now, this guy had to stop.
In addition to bandaging the injured arm, he also went to the internal medicine department.
He had been scolded by the doctor for a long time because he had a cold and fever. If he went to see doctor a little later, he would have a pneumonia.
"Five episodes left." Aryan, who was having an intravenous drip, looked at Emily with a worried expression on his face.
"With employees like you, I don't know if it is a misfortune or a blessing." Emily sighed lightly.
"Why?" Sally didn't understand, "Such a good employee, other bosses would be so happy."
"Working hard is of course a good thing for the boss, but working too hard will be a disaster.'
Was this a kind of work accidents?
Beyond was as wrong as falling short. But it was a special situation now, no wonder Aryan worked so hard.
After having an intravenous drip and returning to the office lounge, it was only a quarter past eight.
There were only the third lesson and the fourth lesson in the morning which started at ten oclock, so there was still more than an hour left.
Aryan wanted to continue drawing. Emily winked at Terry.
Terry threw Aryan directly on the bed and said coldly, "I will help you ask for a leave today. If you dare to get up before lunch, I'll break your leg."
Although this was a joke, Terry was tall and strong, what he said really shocked Aryan.
Aryan was not afraid of anyone, but he was afraid of Terry.
This guy's fists were as hard as iron. When he usually hit sandbags in the office gym, it seemed that the sandbags were going to be blown up by him.
Who dared to provoke him?
"You can take a good rest today. Tomorrow is Friday, it's time for rematch again."
There was only one day left. Even if he drew, there was no time to draw the line. In that case, why bother to fight for it?
"That's right, anyway, the second season is finished. Whether it can pass or not has nothing to do with what you draw today."
Sally poured him a glass of water. After letting him take the medicine, she put down the glass and directly covered him with the quilt.
"What I'm going to draw today is prepared for the finals." Although Aryan was afraid of Terry, he was still a little bit unwilling to give up.
He originally planned to finish the four seasons and used a complete work to compete in the final next week.
Therefore, his task would only be heavier than before. It would never become lighter after rematch.
"Don't worry about it. The finals have changed the rules. Starting from next Monday, they don't need old works. Your team has to create new creations and compete in three rounds."
Lois hurried forward with the news early in the morning, "The news has not been released yet. I heard what was revealed by insiders."
"What do you mean?" What did she mean by not using old works?
A new creation. Was it that they had to create a new work?
"I don't know the details. I just heard that it was revealed by the senior executives
of the Sharp Group's new animation department."
Lois didn't have any advantages, but she really had a unique ability to get the information.
She said, "It probably means that all previous works have no reference significance in the finals."
"The final will be three rounds of on-site competition, probably once on Monday, once on Wednesday, and the final on Friday or Saturday."
"Drawing on the spot?"
"Yes, drawing on the spot!" Lois felt that they really had the hope to achieve good results this time.
"Aryan draws so fast. Rufus' speed of drawing line can keep up with Aryan, plus Joe and Sally coloring."
Lois' eyes shone brightly. She felt that she had seen the dawn of victory.
"Emily, you think that it is possible for us to actually make the top three?"
They didn't dare to expect the first prize. There was probably no chance for them
to form an animation company with the Sharp Group, after all, they really didn't have this ability.noveldrama
However, as long as they become famous in this competition, other animation companies may really come to them to cooperate with them.
In short, this was definitely a good time to become famous.
"Don't look at the old works..." Emily pondered this.
They didn't care about how famous the works before. The person who made this suggestion was indeed bold.
It seemed that the success of the Sharp Group was not unreasonable.
The Sharp Group was really capable, so he must have vision.
"Also, Emily, they will specify the plot."
"I got it." Emily nodded.
In other words, not only have to draw on the spot, but also write the script on the
spot.
She looked back at Aryan and said with a smile, "How is it? Can you have a good sleep after hearing this news?"
Aryan nodded. He was really relieved.
However, to draw on-site, the requirements for drawing ability were the highest.
"Later, our team will have a try to cooperate on spot."
"As for how to cooperate, you don't have to care about it. Go to bed first."
Emily let everyone come to the lounge and let Aryan sleep by himself.
Emily looked at Lois. She was still a little uncertain. "Aryan's line drawing speed is
too fast. Sally will be definitely unable to keep up with him. Although Joe is here,
he is not in our class after all."
"We are already qualified to ask outside for help, don't you know?"
Lois waved her hand and said with a smile, "You can definitely make it through
this rematch. I have enough confidence."
"As long as you pass the rematch, I immediately apply for team qualification upgrades. I guarantee that I can apply it before the finals."
Emily and Sally looked at each other and couldn't help but shook their heads and
smiled.
Their monitor looked plain and flat, as if she had no merits, but in fact, she was absolutely versatile.
What kind of interpersonal relationship, what kind of news, she could get it all.
"Come on, this time, it depends on your abilities."
Emily returned to her position and continued to write her script.
She stayed with Mr. Hunter last night and didn't write many scripts.
Although the scripts were not needed for next week's finals, the story was already
on line, so it must go on.
What's more, the results of all platforms were pretty good.
"I'll finish the coloring of the remaining the rest of episodes." Sally was also full of
ambitions.
"I will also prepare the materials to apply for the team upgrade." Everyone was
busy together. Life was more
fulfilling.
Terry originally had a lot of things to do. The hardware measures in the office
hadn't been done.
But he stood there, not knowing what corner he was looking at. He was in a daze.
Even if everyone was already busy, he just went to the corner and sat down, looking at the table that has not been installed, thoughtfully.
"What's the matter?" Emily was the first to notice that something was wrong with
him.
She walked over, stretched out her hand to shook in front of his eyes, "What are you thinking about?"
Terry looked at her. His thin lips moved slightly, as if he was hesitant to speak or
not.
He was really rarely like this.
Emily was about to ask something, but Terry suddenly said, "I heard...the back
room of the house of the Jackson family caught fire yesterday. How is Matriarch now?"
Chapter 180: Ruined His HandsEmily was taken aback, but she didn't expect that Terry would care about the affairs of the Jackson family.
Especially, it was Matriarch who had nothing to do with him.
"Grandma inhaled some heavy smoke. She became weaker, but the situation is stable."
She looked at Terry and saw him secretly breathe a sigh of relief. She still felt puzzled, "What's wrong? Why do you suddenly care about the affairs of the Jackson family?"
"Nothing."
Terry couldn't tell lies and make excuses, so when he didn't know how to explain, he didn't explain.
"I'll finish installing these seats. You go ahead with your work."
Sally had hired some people and they would come to work directly next month, but many things in the office had not been done.
Terry was really busy.
But Emily always felt that Terry was a bit weird.
She didn't know why he was weird.
Seeing that he was really busy, Emily was not good to bother.
She could only go back to the chair and continued her scripts.
Because the office was close to the school, except for Joe and Terry who had no class in the morning, Emily, Lois, Sally, and Rufus had to rush to school at 9:30.
But they didn't expect that Aryan would also wake up, insisting to follow them to class.
Aryan seemed a bit withdrawn and didn't like dealing with strangers, but he was very persistent in his studies and work.
The school bell rang. The five friends packed up their schoolbags and left the classroom to walk to the school gate.
Lois and Sally were discussing what they would eat.
"Let's eat braised pork today. I haven't eaten it for a long time."
Both of them had been losing weight recently. Now they almost couldn't help
drooling when they think of the aroma of braised pork.
"Rufus, okay?" Sally blinked at him.
"Of course it's good." Rufus, a foodie, liked delicious food.
"Emily?"
"Aryan just gets a little better. Eat something light." Emily rolled her eyes at them.
Sally and Lois immediately surrounded Aryan, pitifully, "Can we get you a bowl of white porridge? You pretend not to see us eating meat, okay?"
Aryan wanted to laugh. He had never lived in a group life and had always been alone.
Unexpectedly, he felt team life seemed to be so interesting.
Originally, he liked quietness the most. After adapting to Lois and Sally's nagging, he thought they were both fun.
"Okay." He didn't any preference for the food.
"No, today's lunch must be light. Everyone is the same." Emily declared.
"Emily......"
"I said no."
They were chatting happily, but before they left the campus, they were suddenly stopped by several persons on the green trail in front of the teaching building.
"You are the members of September Drawing Club? Design 1801?"
The lead boy, who seemed to be a junior, stared at Lois who was walking in the front, and snorted coldly.
Lois was so frightened that she took two steps back subconsciously. These people were so strong and tall which made others fear at first glance.
"What's the matter?" Emily walked in front of Lois.
Rufus and Aryan immediately stood beside her.
Although they seemed to be aggressive and to be very provocative, they couldn't
let a girl stand in front of them alone!
Lois quietly tugged the corner of Emily's clothes. These people looked like not kind!
"I heard that your club has a Genius Painter. He can draw several episodes a day.'
Several boys stared at Emily's hand with sharp eyes, "Is that you?"
"It's me." Aryan pulled Emily behind him.
"Oh, you are very capable! Several episodes for a day? Are you kidding me? You must ask others for help."
"What does it have to do with you?" Aryan said coldly.
"Nothing. I just want to come and see what kind of hands the Genius Painter has."
Several boys stared at Aryan's hand. Their eyes clearly showed malicious.
"Oh, why did your arm hurt? Was it because of the accident of last night? What a pity, it just hurt your arm."
The man smiled very viciously, but his eyes never left Aryan's hand.
Another tall boy also laughed and said, "Yes, why didn't it hurt your fingers? If
your fingers are cut off, will Genius Painter become ridiculous?"
"What do you want to do?" Emily stepped forward again and pulled Aryan back.
Aryan's hand must not be injured now.
Other people's work may be substitutable. Even if her hand was injured, she could dictate and let someone write scripts.
But if Aryan was injured, their entire team would completely lose.
These people even knew Aryan got hurt in the early morning. Could it be that the
accident had some inside story?
"Little girl, we didn't talk to you. Why did you jump out?"
The lead man's face sank. He hated ugly girls.
He stepped forward to push Emily.
Aryan immediately push his hand away, "Don't touch girls!"
"So I can touch you, right?"
The tall boy was suddenly fierce. Several boys approached them instantly.
Emily held Aryan's hands, not letting him act on impulse.
She calmly said, "This is the school. If you think you can fight here, just give it a
try."
Rufus had already taken out the phone and adjusted the shooting angle.
He said coldly, "Try it out. On the school's forum today, this live broadcast will be
the hottest."
Several boys looked at each other, and finally backed away.
The lead boy still stared at Aryan's hand.
After being angry for half a second, he suddenly sneered, "Humph, this is the school. We won't hit you, but you can't stay in the school all the time, right?"
"You have to take good care of your hands. If your fingers are accidentally chopped off by others, it will really become terrible club, ha-ha-ha."
"The bad hands of Genius Painter, ha-ha..."
Several people sneakered and walked away.
Aryan's face fell. He wanted to rush over and fight them fiercely, but Emily
dragged him hard, not allowing him to be impulsive.
Emily was a little worried now. Her eyes fell subconsciously on Aryan's hands.
"Emily, do you think they really want to cut Aryan's hands?" Sally walked up to her, also looking at Aryan's hand.
Emily looked back at Lois, "Is the result of today's rematch already out?"
"It should be in the afternoon, but someone has already known the result in the morning."
It seemed that the other party was more informed than Lois.
Maybe they had already known the result of the rematch last night.
If they had connections, they would know the news faster than others
"They seem to be students to Design 1601." Rufus pushed his glasses and stared
at the back of those people leaving.
Emily frowned, "Design 1601?"
"I see. The cartoon club in their class is very powerful, and the leader is..."
Lois searched for relevant information in her mind, and then she patted her
forehead.
"The beauty of our Design Department, Flora Hans, the fourth daughter of Golden Summit Group."
Lois knew so much.
She looked at Emily with some anxiety, "Flora has an average status in the Hans
family, but her half-sister seems to like her very much."
"As for her sister, I heard that she is the best friend of Tabby who was daughter
the Jackson family. The two have a very good relationship."
The relationship was really complicated.
These boys were probably just to help Flora. These people were not in the school.noveldrama
In the school, they were safe, but it was hard to keep safety after going out.
Before Emily could say anything, her phone vibrated.
It was from a stranger call. Emily hesitated before picking it up slowly, "Hello?"
On the phone, a voice that seemed to be familiar came indifferently, "Treat me a meal. I will tell you what happened in the early morning."
