Ch. 321..325: Stay Around You Now And Forever (Hunter Jackson) Chapter 321-325

Chapter 321: We Are Brothers Forever

The power of Heaven-like Island in Bentson City had indeed been disintegrated.

A group of mysterious forces had found several of the hideouts and information about important people concerned.

Those people were captured one after another. Although the boss had escaped, even if he came back, it would be impossible for him to gain a foothold in Bentson.

Everyone was guessing that it was Hunter who contributed this time. Well, it was impossible for Hunter to publicly admit it.

However, the security company he suddenly started seemed to fit this point perfectly.

It was said that the employees of the security company were all high-ranking bodyguards, and the wealthy of every country would have to queue up to employ those bodyguards.

In any case, people could only guess whether the capture of Heaven-like Island related to Hunter's security company.

The information that Henry told her were all public in the world.

As for whether there was any inside information, Henry didn't say it, and Emily didn't ask.

In fact, everyone knew what had happened, so there was no need to keep asking. At least, Emily relieved.

Hunter had truly become an important man. In the past, he was only a simple businessman, but now, he was so strong that no one dared to provoke him.

This man had reached a height that he had never been in his previous life within only one month.

"But you said that the boss of Heaven-like Island has not been captured?" This made Emily somewhat uneasy.

"There's no need to be afraid. Although he hasn't been found out, the power of Heaven-like Island in Bentson City has been completely disintegrated. The rest of them won't be able to achieve anything."

Emily finally felt completely at ease, but she still didn't hang up.

She wanted to ask something, but she knew she was in no position to do that.

Henry waited quietly on the phone.

After a while, there was only her breath on the phone, but there was no sound. He pursed his lower lip and suddenly said, "He got injured..."

"How is he now?" Emily held her breath and immediately asked.

He knew why she hesitated for so long. The only question she wanted to ask was whether Hunter got hurt in this battle.

For the ordinary residents in Bentson, these days were nothing different.noveldrama

However, in reality, the smell of blood was extremely strong in some remote places and uninhabited islands around Bentson these past few days.

Everyone was guessing that Hunter's newly established Wolfrealm Security Group had made great contributions.

But this was confidential, and accurate information could not be spread from within.

Everything depended on public speculation.

However, this action was extremely quick. Before everyone could react, it was settled.

By the time the news came out, the power of Heaven-like Island had been destroyed.

"It was nothing serious. I heard that he only stayed in the hospital for one day and left this morning."

Emily didn't say anything. She held her phone quietly, but still didn't hang up.

"Emily, you can tell me everything." She didn't use to be such hesitant.

"Do you want to find an opportunity to explain this to him? Don't worry. I'll tell him later. I..."

“He said that after Heaven-like Island, it will be us who will go to hell," Emily calmly interrupted.

Henry was obviously stunned fora moment. And then, he said, "That's because he doesn't know..."

"No, we couldn't go back."

Emily looked down at her flat belly.

She had lost the child. No matter what misunderstanding they had, and no matter whether she wanted to solve it or not, the fact could not be changed.

Moreover, even without Heaven-like Island, many people would also be jealous of him because of his current status in Bentson.

The woman who could be with him was definitely the strongest.

But she couldn't. Probably she could not be with him forever.

"I don't want to go back to him." Without Heaven-like Island, there would still be millions of people who wanted to harm him.

Vincent was right. She always did harm to others. If she kept staying with Hunter, he would be in danger.

"But Henry, what Hunter said that day made me a little uneasy..."

"Are you afraid that he will take revenge on me?" Henry smiled, "You don't need to be afraid. Although we haven't seen each other for a long time, we are still brothers."

Brothers might have misunderstandings, or even quarrel, or fight with each other, but they would be brothers forever. Brothers would not kill each other.

Although Emily was still a little nervous, Henry's words made her kind of calm down.

When she returned to the private room, Joe and Terry had arrived.

Rufus and Aryan also soon arrived, and a small celebration banquet was held in this somewhat upscale hotel.

Lois, who was in charge of finance, immediately took out her phone to calculate when she looked at the menu.

"Well! Just now, I casually flipped through the menu, noticing that many cold dishes are free, so I thought it was not expensive here."

The moment they entered, they started discussing the effects and ratings of their live talent show, and actually forgot the menu.

"This one! My God! Why it's so expensive?"

"A dish with vegetables costs more than two hundred! They are really grabbing money!" Sally was also surprised.

Dishes with vegetables, shouldn't they be thirty to forty?

Even if the environment was good, sixty or seventy was already the best!

Two hundred and eighty-eight for vegetables! If they took this one, they might be crazy!

"They are vegetables with special sauce. That's why they are different."

Joe waved and smiled, "You are the boss of the September Company Finance Department, and Molly is the general manager of the Marketing Department and the Planning Department. You are all big guys, yet you can't even afford to eat vegetables."

"Even if we have money now, it doesn't mean we can be extravagant and waste our money. You know that we make a living on our own."

Although they were ministers or general managers, in order to save money, the salaries they offered were not high.

Even Aryan, a super painter, refused the high salary that Molly wanted to give him.

Therefore, in the end, Emily agreed to give everyone some shares when they past the first three years, so that they could make their own decisions.

As for now, because the company hadn't made a profit yet, they had to wait.

Actually, although the salary was not comparable to the first team, not even the group leader, it was much better than before.

It was really much better.

Therefore, they could afford this meal.

"It doesn't matter. It's on me." Emily put away her phone and smiled.

"Do you think you're rich? The salary you pay yourself isn't as good as mine."

Lois was the head of the Finance Department and knew everyone's income very

well. "Even if I don't have much salary, I can still afford this meal."

Emily poured herself a drink and raised her glass, "Come on. Don't worry about

the money. We are here to celebrate. Just make yourself at home."

However, Sally still felt a little unhappy.

After thinking for a while, she secretly took out her phone.

Then, she unknowingly sent a message...

Chapter 322: Is It Something He Can Compare to

Emily did not expect Henry to come, just as she was about to pay the bill.

"What are you doing here?" She was a little surprised. It had already past the time for lunch.

"I'm hungry, so I came." As soon as Henry arrived, Joe immediately fetched him a seat beside Emily.

When he sat down, Sally hurriedly asked the waiter to add a set of silverware.

Lois and Sally had known each other very well for the past nearly two months.

Noticing that Sally was so proactive, Lois was unwilling to lag behind, so she immediately brought the menu to Henry.

"Young Master Henry, please have a look at the menu. I'll have them place an order for you immediately."

Henry glanced at the dishes on the table and said, "No thanks. There are still a lot of dishes left."

How dare Sally and Lois let the boss eat leftovers? Even Joe and Aryan wouldn't dare to do that!

Rufus also said, "Young Master Henry, please order what you want. I'll let them take away the leftovers."

"There's no need..."

"You should order. Otherwise, how dare they ask you to pay the bill?" Emily looked at the menu and said jokingly.

"Well!"

"No!"

"Ouch!"

They were immediately embarrassed and didn't know if they should find somewhere to hide themselves.

They just wanted to save her some money!

She was really bad for revealing everyone's thoughts out so loudly!

Henry smiled and glanced at Emily. He knew she was rather a cold girl.

"I'm afraid everyone knows that you, the boss, are really poor, right?"

The September Company was only a very small subsidiary of the Sharp Group. However, because of Emily, Henry always paid special attention to it.noveldrama

Recently, the ratings of their talent show soared since it had been broadcast on TV. They would absolutely celebrate it.

Obviously, it was she, the boss, who should pay the bill.

"Well, that... I just want to invite Young Master Henry to celebrate together."

Lois secretly rolled her eyes at Emily, hoping Emily would do nothing.

Emily just drank her drink and didn't say anything else.

However, Young Master Henry was not an idiot, so he obviously understood what they meant.

In any case, he was rich. To him, a few thousand or ten thousand was nothing.

"Alright, then I'll have sweet and sour pork ribs, shrimp vegetables, and black agaric with lotus roots."

Henry pushed the menu back to Lois and said, "Here you go."

Lois was stunned, even Sally was dumbfounded.

"What?" Henry raised his eyebrows.

"No, nothing." Lois immediately called the waiter over and added the dishes.

When Henry went to wash his hands, Lois glared at Emily with a shocked expression, "Emily, are you ... really not dating with each other?"

Who would believe this?

"That's right! They are definitely dating!"

Sally also glared at Emily with complaint, "You really did a good job in keeping secrets! You two are absolutely not just friends! Who are you lying to?"

The dishes that Henry ordered just now were the same as Emily had ordered before! Those were still on the table!

Everyone ordered one or two dishes. Because Emily was treating, she ordered an extra one.

The three dishes were exactly the same without any deviation.

These were Emily's favorites!

Henry clearly understood her preferences. There must be special relationship between them!

Emily was also helpless towards this matter.

Because of the miscarriage, Henry said that he had to live with her since she also needed to be taken good care of for the first month.

During this month, Henry figured out all her preferences. What was so strange?

However, no one knew that they were living together, and Emily didn't intend to say anything about it.

The first month was almost over. She would soon move back to her apartment. She only needed to find an opportunity to talk to Henry.

When she moved back, they would not be afraid of any rumors, so it was better to say nothing.

Terry poured her a drink, and then he still sat beside her, silent.

Joe knew that he was in a bad mood, but they could do nothing. It was Emily and Henry's own business.

Terry didn't want to make things difficult for Emily, so for long, he had only silently guarded her and never said anything else.

When Henry returned, everyone had already calmed down.

In front of Young Master Henry, no one dared to act recklessly.

They dared not to make jokes now. After all, it seemed that Young Master Henry

was gentle, but in fact, everyone felt that he was hard to get along with.

No one dared to talked to him since he was their boss.

But Emily didn't care about that.

"Why did you stop talking when I came? Am I that scary?"

Henry thought that he was kind to Emily and her friends. It seemed that he had

never lost his temper in front of them, right?

"You are the boss, and you can let them go in a minute. Who dares to speak loudly in front of you?"

Emily glanced at him, "Unless you swear that no matter what mistakes they make, they will not be expelled."

"No, no, no! There's no need! There's no need!" Lois almost wanted to kick Emily's legs.

Was she deliberately here to pull them down today?

How dared she want Young Master Henry to swear? Did she want to be expelled?

"Alright, after work, no matter what jokes you make, as long as you don't harm the company's interests, you will never be fired."

Henry looked at everyone and smiled, "So, is that alright?"

Everyone was too surprised to make any response.

Was Young Master Henry so easy to get along with?

Sally laughed embarrassedly and asked tentatively, "Really? ... We can play any jokes?"

"Are you trying to scold me?" It was not uncommon for employees to curse their bosses in private.

"Absolutely not!" Their boss was so nice. How could they scold him?

Sally was just very curious. She was so curious that her stomach was about to be devoured by the curious insect.

"Well, Young Master Henry, you and Emily... you... that... you and her..."

"Well!" Lois couldn't stand Sally's hesitance anymore, so she continued, "Sally

wants to ask whether you and Emily are dating."

Emily glared at Lois, but Lois did not take it seriously.

Everyone was looking at Henry.

Henry took a sip of water and slowly put down the cup. He turned to look at the

girl beside him.

"I'd like to. But it depends on if she is willing to give me a chance," he suddenly smiled.

"What!" Emily almost choked because of the drink.

Did he do it on purpose?

When they went out, Emily was dragged outside the bathroom by Sally and Lois,

almost being tortured by them!

"You said that you two have no special relationship! Young Master Henry has already said that he is waiting for your reply!"

"He's joking. Really, I swear." Emily was tired of being asked. Why didn't anyone believe her?

"I don't believe it! When he looked at you, he was so gentle. He must have already expressed his love to you. Why didn't you agree? Such a good man!" "That's right! Are you still thinking about Hunter? But why don't you think more about it? Young Master Henry is so gentle. Can Hunter compare to him?" Suddenly, a chilly voice sounded out from the corridor, "Is that so?"¶¶¶¶¶¶¶

 

Chapter 323: The Most Familiar Strangers

How dare someone say that Mr. Hunter was not as good as other men?

In the corridor, a beautiful and elegant woman held onto a man's arm and looked at them expressionlessly.

She was the one who had said the words unpleasantly.

However, what shocked everyone was not her, but the man beside her.

Some people had said that he was like a wolf.

The word 'wolf' can be often seen on social media today.

But now that he appeared, they knew why people would say that.

He had sharp and cold gaze like a wolf.

His casual gaze might frighten you deeply.

Sally and Lois were so frightened that they almost knelt down.

No one expected to see Hunter at the entrance of the ladies' bathroom.noveldrama

Emily clenched her fist tightly, calmed herself down and pulled her two companions.

However, they couldn't move at all!

Their legs were weak and they were unable to take a single step forward.

They knew that it was best to leave now, but they just could not move at all! What should they do?

"Emily, what should we do?"

What else could Emily do? Emily could not leave them here after all.

However, it was hard for her to drag her friends away.

Emily complained in her heart about her friends' weight.

They were so heavy that she could not even push them even a step forward!

"Emily, why are you here? What a coincidence." Wendy was surprised to see Emily.

Wendy looked up at Hunter with panic. She was afraid to see any abnormal expressions on Hunter's face.

It would mean he still cared about Emily regardless of him being angry or happy. But Hunter was as calm as ever. There was no slightest change in his eyes.

Facing Emily, he had no expression at all.

It seemed he had really given up on Emily.

Wendy secretly let out a sigh of relief before looking at Emily and revealing an elegant smile.

"Long time no see. How are you? Why are you still hanging out with these shabby fellows?"

Sally and Lois were angry to hear that. This girl was so arrogant.

However, they didn't dare to curse back with Hunter here.

Emily looked across Hunter.

Looking at Wendy, she smiled and said, "My friends may be not elegant, but at least they are kind and sincere.

Compared to some fake and vicious people, I am more willing to be with my friends."

Unexpectedly, Wendy was not furious.

This time, Wendy seemed gentle, elegant, and generous.

"Oh, really? Then congratulations on finding your true friends."

With such warm words spoken, there was no slightest bit of smile on her face.

She looked up at Hunter and said in an extremely gentle voice,

"Hunter, I am going to the bathroom. Wait for me."

"Yes." Hunter replied indifferently.

Wendy reluctantly removed her hands from his arm.

Hunter finally allowed her to hold his arm. Wendy really would not separate with him.

But she had to go to the bathroom.

Wendy glanced coldly at Emily and quickly walked into the bathroom, not wanting to delay for a second.

She was afraid that while she was away, Emily would start hooking up with Hunter again!

This time, she would definitely not give Emily any chance to win Hunter back.

After Wendy left, Hunter took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it.

He stood in the corridor, smoking slowly.

His casual movements were still extremely charming.

Emily tried to pull Sally and Lois away again. It would be strange for them to be here.

However, Sally and Lois were still against the wall and could not stand still.

Emily was also very embarrassed. They kept standing beside the wall, which looked very strange.

Should Emily say hello to Hunter? They used to be familiar with each other but they seemed to be strangers now.

After all, they ended as enemies to each other.

Now, should she say hello?

Hunter was smoking quietly. He stood in the middle of the corridor, but it seemed

he had taken up all the space.

His aura filled the surroundings.

Under such a strong aura, it was not an easy task to walk past him.

Emily took a deep breath and told herself not to think about the past.

At the very least, they used to be familiar.

She noticed Hunter's black shirt. Henry said that Hunter was injured, but he only stayed in hospital for one night.

How serious was his injury?

"You..." she hesitated for a while before finally raising her head and facing him bravely, "Hunter, long time no see. How have you been?"

Hunter's gaze finally landed on her face.

Emily thought that she would definitely panic when their gazes met, but he only gave her a faint glance.

His gaze was indifferent, distant, without the slightest bit of emotion, as if he was looking at an unrelated person.

Therefore, she did not panic at all, because he did not give her any pressure at

all.

"Fine." Hunter nodded in response.

He said these words as if he was talking with a stranger.

At this moment, Wendy came out. Seeing them looking at each other, she cursed

in her heart and immediately walked over.

She walked over and stood between them, trying to cut off connection between

them.

"Hunter, let's go." Wendy smiled gently at him and held his arm with both her hands.

He did not refuse and lifted his hand to smoke.

He looked mysterious under the smoke. He flicked the cigarette butt into the trash can not far away.

Afterwards, he and Wendy left together without any hesitation or any intention of talking to Emily.

Only when they disappeared did Sally and Lois heaved a sigh of relief. They almost collapsed.

They actually said behind Hunter that he was inferior to other men.

Heavens! Fortunately, they were still alive!

Every time they saw this man, it was like they were seeing an emperor.

So scary!

Chapter 324: Why Him?

"Lois said that whole thing about Hunter, right?" Sally tried to get rid of this.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lois was shocked and wanted to kick Sally, "It was you!"

Emily ignored them and walked out of the hotel. She happened to see Joe and Terry standing together. Probably they were waiting for Emily.

Seeing Emily come out, Joe immediately came over and whispered, "There is something emergency."

"Sally, ask Terry to send you back first." Emily glanced at Sally.

Sally noticed that Joe and Emily seemed to have some secrets lately.

However, she ignored them and left with Lois.

Terry was a little hesitant. Emily said to him, "Young Master Henry will wait for me."

So Terry did not have to stay with Emily.

He left with two girls.

Rufus and Aryan left early. Henry seemed to have met an acquaintance and was chatting in the hotel.

Joe pulled Emily to an inconspicuous place and whispered, "I've finally found that Luke!"

"Really?" Emily was instantly excited.

After searching for more than a month, they finally found him.

Luke was so hard to find.

"I contacted him, but he didn't want to come back. He said that someone in Bentson City wanted to kill him."

It was imaginable but Emily was still stunned upon hearing this.

Indeed, there were some people meddling in.

They hadn't taken any actions towards her until now. Maybe it was because she was always with Henry, or their investigation was too secret and Emily did not realize.

"Joe, try to get in touch with him first. Don't act at the time being."

Joe was just a nineteen-year-old boy. It was a bit hard for him to deal with this kind of thing.

"I know. I won't go too far."

Ever since what happened to Evie, Joe felt unease.

Later, something had happened to Emily. Although Henry had been with her, they

did not know much about it.

However, they could guess what it was about.

Joe was worried that this matter had something to do with what they were investigating. Since then, he had been very careful in everything.

Even if he was searching the Internet, he had to make sure that he didn't leave any traces behind.

"Luke said that Matriarch Jackson did ask him to investigate something, but he would not say anything."

"But at least he admitted that he had contacted Matriarch Jackson."

Luke might be the key figure in the whole matter.

Emily thought for a while before saying, "I'll think about what to do. Now, let's go back."

"Alright." Since Henry hadn't come out, Joe couldn't leave.

Just now, Emily left with Sally. Henry thought that they had already left.

Joe called Henry but Henry didn't answer it. Maybe Henry didn't have his phone by his side or he was too busy.

"Shall I send you back first?" Joe's car was still in the hotel garage.

"No need. I'll wait for Henry. You can leave first." Emily shook her head.

Joe glanced at the lobby of the hotel. He couldn't see Henry's figure, but the lobby was filled with people.

There shouldn't be any danger in such place.

Joe nodded, "Then I'll leave first. Call me if you need anything."

"Alright." After seeing Joe off, Emily waited at the entrance of the hotel. But she suddenly didn't want to wait.

Actually, tonight, she was very upset.

She didn't want to admit that her bad mood was because she saw Hunter again, but it was indeed related to him. She could not deny it.

She took out her phone and sent a message to Henry, saying that she had left with Joe and Lois.

After the message was sent, Emily heaved a sigh of relief, put away her phone and walked towards the distant street.

It was around eight or nine o'clock.

The noise of the streets was mixed with the restlessness of the citizens.

As Emily walked through the crowd, her irritated heart gradually settled down. Regardless of what had happened in the past, everything was settled by now. Hunter was destined not to belong to her, and now she and Hunter returned to their own original ways. She should not take the small incident seriously. Actually, wasn't this good now?

She thought she could easily let go of all this.

However, could she really let go?

Emily turned around and was about to return to the hotel waiting for Henry.

Unexpectedly, just as she turned around, a chill came from behind her.

Emily was shocked. She hurriedly turned around and tried to escape.

However, the person behind grabbed her.

Before Emily could see clearly the person, she opened her mouth to call for help,

but she suddenly inhaled a strange fragrance.

Afterwards, she became unconscious and fell down.

Ever since she broke up with Hunter, her life had been very peaceful.

For more than a month, there had been no accidents or attacks.

She didn't expect that she would be kidnapped again after just reuniting with Hunter.

Hunter must have brought her bad luck.

Emily felt sleepy. She fainted, but she wasn't completely unconscious.

She couldn't open her eyes, but she could still feel what was happening around

her.

She was thrown into a car. The car was as large as a mini room.

Someone tied her hands up above her head. Afterwards, they abandoned her here and left.

Where was she? Whose car was this? What did they want to do?

After a long time, someone seemed to have arrived outside.

The people outside spoke respectfully to him, but Emily did not hear clearly what

they said.

After that, the car door was suddenly opened and someone entered.

The cold air came in and Emily trembled.

The aura and the smell were so familiar. She immediately recognized it.

But the next second, she panicked.

He actually asked people to kidnap her, what exactly did he want to do?

Emily finally opened her eyes and saw the man sitting beside her clearly.

He was holding a cigarette in his hand.

Previously, he had not smoked much, but today, Emily saw him smoking twice. Was he irritated, or was he already used to the feeling of smoking? Emily soon found out that it was not the time to feel sorry for Hunter. She should figure out what Hunter wanted.

Emily realized that her hands were tied tightly, and she was unable to move.

She looked at the quiet man and said in a cold voice, "What do younoveldrama

Chapter 325: He Had Changed

What do I want?

She had already been with two men. But Emily seemed still innocent.

Was she good at acting, or was she just so stupid?

Hunter was sitting on the chair in the back row. In order to avoid his body, Emily could only shrink back into the chair.

However, there was no enough room. They were still tightly clinging to each other.

Hunter suddenly leaned back in his chair, and Emily was immediately suppressed by him, unable to move at all.

She tried to move, but her hands were still tied firmly. She lay beside him, which made her feel bad.

"Hunter..."

39

"What do I want?" Hunter raised his hand. He held a cigarette, looking charming.

But she refused to look at him. She should not look at him now.

Right now, he was with Wendy.

But Hunter would not let go of her easily.

His hand suddenly landed on her body, and he tried to unbutton her coat, "Guess what I want?"

"I won't!" Although Emily was scared and panicked, she still tried to pretend to be calm.

"I don't know that you would like another man's girlfriend."

She thought that if she angered him, he would throw her out.noveldrama

Unexpectedly, Hunter was not angry. Instead, he smiled.

"I just like that. Don't you know?"

He raised his finger, and unfastened two buttons.

The cloth of her coat was slippery, and the collar slipped down, showing her snow-white skin.

She became panicked again.

No one could see through Hunter.

His hand landed on her neck, and his fingertips slowly slid down.

However, the scene in the hospital suddenly came in Emily's brain.

At that time, he pinched her neck, and she couldn't breathe. The shadow of death enveloped her, and she almost died.

This time, Hunter was just pressing her neck lightly with his fingertips, but she found it hard to breathe.

So hard.

Her chest was constantly undulating, showing a perfect curve.

Hunter smiled lightly and his hands kept sliding down.

"No!" Emily yelled.

Her wrist felt a sharp pain, but she was still unable to break free from the rope.

She looked at Hunter and wanted to beg for mercy, but his cold gaze blocked all her words.

If begging for mercy were useful, he wouldn't be titled as a wolf.

He would treat things randomly according to his mood. Others' thoughts never mattered.

Emily finally closed her eyes and gave up struggling.

When he was tired and felt bored, he would naturally let her go.

Such things had happened before, but mostly he was just trying to scare her.

But this time, Hunter's actions clearly surprised Emily.

He bent down and used his actions to tell her that he would also take real actions towards her.

...

Two hours later, the well-dressed man got out of the car.

The rope in Emily's hand was loosened and she slipped off the chair.

She grabbed her clothes and her eyes were blank.

He was no longer the Hunter of the past. He was just a piece of ice now.

He had really changed.

A knock came from outside. Ewan's voice sounded cold, "Miss Emily, please leave in five minutes."

These words were not only heartless, but also filled with humiliation.

His words meant that she only had five minutes to tidy herself up.

After more than five minutes, Ewan would have to open the door and drive her away.

Emily bit her lips, feeling exhausted.

After putting on her clothes and tidying up her hair, she pushed open the car door and walked out of the car with painful legs.

Hunter's aura had disappeared. The sound of the car engine that she had just

heard should be him getting into the car and leaving.

After playing her like a toy, he left without hesitation.

"Miss Emily, the entrance of the hotel is just over there."

Ewan only gave her a faint and cold glance.

He said, "You can go straight back to the hotel to find your friends, or you can take

a taxi and leave. It depends on you. We won't accompany you anymore."

A bag was stuffed into her embrace. Ewan then quickly closed the car door.

Ewan got into the car along with another man that Emily did not know.

The car was then started. In an instant, it disappeared from Emily's sight.

She was left alone in the wind. The evening breeze blew over. She looked even thinner in the wind.

It hurt.

Hunter's movements just now were too crazy, and his strength was even terrifying.

After being tormented for so long, she was now so tired that it was even difficult for her to walk.

However, she still clenched her fists tightly and walked towards the bright place step by step.

Her legs were trembling, as if they could be broken at any moment.

The lights in front of her seemed to be very close but she felt they were far away.

The distance was not long, but she was desperate.

She wanted to cry, but she didn't know what the point was.

She had thought that they would not meet each other again.

However, she didn't expect that they would meet so quickly and he even did such cruel things to her.

What did he say before he left?

"Me and Henry, who is better? Hmm?"

These words were like sharp swords, piercing her heart hard.

Emily finally couldn't withstand the pain in her legs and crouched down on the ground.

She did not know who was better, because she could not compare them at all.

He was the only man that she ever slept with. From the beginning until now, he was always the only one.

She wanted to cry, but she had no tears. Her sobbing voice was hoarse.

She hugged her knees, feeling the pain in her body.

Suddenly, the phone in her bag rang.

Emily opened her eyes and took out her phone from her bag. Her movements were still a little slow.

Seeing the number, she took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

"Henry?"

"Joe didn't send you home." Henry's voice sounded a little anxious, "Where exactly are you?"

"I... I'm in a bad mood. I came out for a walk. I'll be right back."

"Where are you? I'll pick you up now." He was worried about her.

His voice made her feel some warmth.

Emily unconsciously smiled, "I'm still near the hotel."

“Alright, don't run around. I'll come over now." Henry had already returned to the apartment. Emily could tell from the sound that he should be heading out holding his keys.

Emily felt warm and safe.

She nodded, "Well, I'm not running around. I'll ... wait for you."¶¶¶¶¶¶
