Ch. 431..435: Stay Around You Now And Forever (Hunter Jackson) Chapter 431-435

Chapter 431: He Wasn’t Behind This

"Master.” Just as Joseph got out of the car, the assistant walked over with a stack of documents in his hands.

"What is it?" His assistant had always been calm and rarely so anxious.

"Master, take a look. This is the plan for the Shinkansen project."

It took the assistant a lot of effort to ask someone to get the plan in secret.

Of course, given that Joseph was not the president anymore, he had to take an informal approach to get it.

But the situation was so urgent that even if it was informal, he couldn't care so much.

"Master, I have studied it. This project absolutely cannot be started. Once it is started, the Gale Group will suffer heavy losses."

Joseph's eyes narrowed, "Go ahead."

His phone rang up, but his assistant's stern face was telling him that he had to take the matter seriously.

As for the phone, he just casually pressed the mute button and threw it to the side, without checking who it was.

The assistant said immediately after the door was closed, "I have got news that there is a new high-speed rail plan in City L that will be implemented by the end of next year."

"They are in conflict?"

"Yes, the two projects are in conflict. This contract would only benefit the Jacksons of Bentson City. However, for us, we will suffer heavy losses when the high-speed rail of the government is completed."

The Gales had been a pharmaceutical producer for generations, and almost all of their previous businesses were related to medicine or cosmetology.

The new projects were still in their infancy.

Many people in the company, even Lottie and Sasha, were still only exploring the new project.

However, Joseph had analyzed it for a long time.

The reason why the project was put on hold was precisely because it was unclear what plans the government had.

Many directors in the company were blaming him for not following up, but not everything could be said in public.

"The Jackson Group has steeped in similar projects for so many years, so whatever news we can get, it's impossible that they couldn't."

Joseph looked down and flipped through the documents page by page.

In the end, his face became even darker, "Who in the Jackson Group is cooperating with Wendy on this project?”

"The fifth young master."

"Porter Jackson?"

Joseph had thought that Hunter would be the one who was working together with Wendy on this project.

After all, Hunter had taken over several similar projects before.

There would be no accident if such projects fell into the hands if Hunter.

He hadn't expected that Wendy's partner this time wasn't Hunter.

"I had thought that it must be Mr. Porter. He has experience in this field."

Joseph did not say anything and fell into deep thought.

It wasn't Hunter. But the agreement on this project was signed immediately after Wendy obtained the equity.

Judging from the time span, the people from the Jackson Group and Wendy had definitely colluded in advance.

If it wasn't Hunter, then could it be that the person behind Wendy was Porter?

"Mr. Porter is really good at hiding!"

He wasn't very eye-catching before. Joseph didn't expect that at the critical moment, he would take so hard a bite of them!

"Contact the board of directors of the Gale Group. I'm gonna return to the company to hold a meeting of the board of directors."

He was afraid that this project would really be implemented if he didn't go back.

"Master, we have already signed the agreement. Unless the people from the Jackson Group are willing to cancel it together with us, we will breach the contract no matter what.

And the penalty for breach of contract is 30 billion!"

30 billion! Such a high penalty was completely unreasonable!

Before Joseph could say anything, the assistant explained, "They didn't just sign this new high-speed rail plan. They also signed the plan for the line between City L and the distant sea area of Bentson City."

"Nonsense!" How could these people do it so recklessly when they knew nothing about it?

No, it was not that Wendy knew nothing; she only followed Porter!

"Master, the directors of the company are all following Wendy. Furthermore, it is everyone's wish to cooperate with the Jackson Group of Bentson City."

"At this time, even if you go back to reason with them, no one will listen to you." Most importantly, the master also knew another point, right?

"This plan was obtained by informal means. If you take it to the board of directors to argue with them, Wendy might lose control and call the police ..."

Joseph waved his hand and the assistant stopped talking.

This thing couldn't be discussed above board, indeed.

He had already been dismissed from his post and was no longer the president of

the Gale Group. It was indeed inconvenient for him to do a lot of things.

He took out a cigarette from nowhere and lit it for himself.

The assistant didn't dare to speak. It seemed that the master was also deeply troubled this time.

Recently, he had always been very troubled.

He hadn't been a smoker.

After a long time, Joseph took out his phone and found that Milo had called several times.

Joseph called him back, but he didn't answer the phone -- maybe his phone wasn't by his side, or whatever.

Joseph didn't call again. Instead, he dialed another number.

After a few seconds, a guy picked up the phone.

"Mr. Gale, to what do I owe this pleasure?" The man said in a low and pleasant voice.

"Have you heard of the project that Wendy and Porter are working on, Mr. Jackson?"

Neither of them was idle, so Joseph didn't intend to waste any time and went straight to the point.

Hunter smiled and said, "I've just heard of it, and it seems to be two projects."

Joseph touched his lower lip and said in a deep voice, "I wonder if Mr. Jackson is free now? Can we have a dinner together?"

"I'm free right now. How about you come by at the café?"

Hunter seemed to be in a good mood and agreed straightforwardly.

"But I only have one hour. There's a video link in an hour and a half, and I have to

go back to the hotel."

Joseph had no doubt that he was busy.

But he was quite surprised that Hunter was willing to see him, and it went so

smoothly.

At least now he would have a chance to talk with Hunter.

"Alright, where are you? I'm coming over now."

Hanging up the phone, he received an address from Hunter.noveldrama

Joseph then sent the location to his assistant, "Let's go there, now."

The assistant immediately started the car without the slightest pause.

Both Joseph and Hunter were busy people, and their time was invaluable.

Just as they set off, Joseph's phone rang again. It was still Milo.

Joseph picked up the phone. Milo sounded a little anxious, "Master Joseph, do you have time to come over now?"

"No, I'm on my way to see Hunter. Is there something urgent?"

Hearing that he was going to see Hunter, Milo could only swallow the words back into his stomach.

"No, it's fine. You go see Master Hunter first. I can handle these things here."

Chapter 432: Give Her to Me with Your Own Hands

Emily had never expected that there would be so many reporters waiting for her in the hospital.

Yes, they were waiting for her!

And today, she was the key role in the eyes of all the reporters!

"Miss Gale, what do you want to say about the photos of you and Mr. Joseph online?"

"Miss Gale, there are rumors that you are actually the real Miss Gale while Miss Wendy is only a fake. Is that true?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Miss Emily ... she's just here as a guest!"

Milo and the bodyguards protected Emily behind them, but they didn't expect that more and more reporters would rush over.

"Miss Gale, are you the real Miss Gale or not? Are those rumors true or false?"

"If you are the real Miss Gale, how would you explain the affair between you and Mr. Joseph? Could it be that your cousins..."

"Shut up!" Milo was so angry that he nearly kicked the bucket on the spot.

Pointing at the reporter who asked the question, his fingers were trembling.noveldrama

"If you keep talking nonsense, I will sue you for slander!"

The reporter was kind of frightened and withheld the question.

However, he was still unwilling to back down and continued to ask, "Then Miss Gale, have you confirmed your relationship with Mr. Joseph? As you know, there are so many photos of you and ... How do you explain this?"

"Are the two Gales really gonna unite by marriage?"

"Miss Gale, there are rumors that you are already pregnant. Is it Mr. Joseph's child?"

"Miss Gale, there is news from Bentson City that you are in a relationship with Hunter Jackson. Is that true?"

"Miss Gale, are you dating both of them now?"

"Miss Gale, could you please explain ..."

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" Milo and the bodyguards finally managed to break through the crowd of reporters and went into the hospital.

After entering the inpatient department, with the security guards there and the bodyguards hired by the Gales, the reporters were finally stopped outside.

"Miss Emily, are you alright?"

Seeing Emily clutching her stomach and frowning, Milo looked nervous.

He had already warned her not to come. And Joseph had especially told him not to let her go out today.

However, he didn't expect that this still happened.

Emily's face was extremely pale. She was covering her belly, not because she was uncomfortable, but because she was afraid that her baby inside might get hurt.

"Photos..." She finally came to think of it. She took out her phone and checked. All of a sudden, Emily felt like she was dealt a blow.

No wonder Joseph asked her to stay away from the Internet. It turned out that everyone now knew that she was "dating both men at the same time".

What was worse was that her so called sex photos with Joseph were spread everywhere!

How could her identity as the real Miss Gale be revealed at this point?

There was evidence, and it was not an empty groundless rumor. Once her identity

as the real Miss Gale was unveiled to the public, the reputation of the Gales would be completely ruined!

Did that mean she could never return to and become a member of the Gales justifiably?

The feeling of powerlessness almost engulfed her!

"Miss Emily, don't worry. Master Joseph will definitely find a way to settle this. He always will."

Of course, Milo knew what she was worried about. In fact, he was haunted by the same specter, too.

The real Miss Gale was back, so when Sawyer woke up, he would definitely acknowledge her identity and welcome her home.

But now, this path of home coming was simply too rough!

Even if they could get it off the trend and cool it down now, when Sawyer woke up and claim to the public that Emily was his real grand-daughter, this affair would definitely be brought up again.

Public opinion was a terrifying force.

Especially in this era of the Internet, the damage of this could be absolutely unimaginable.

"I'm fine, Milo, don't worry about me."

Emily calmed down and comforted him instead, “As long as Grandpa can wake up

and I can stay by his side, I'm satisfied. As for the future ..."

No one knew what would happen and where she would be in the future.

Besides, she still had a baby in her belly. If she didn't want to disappoint her grandpa, she had to leave him as her belly grew larger and larger.

Therefore, for her, the word "future" was beyond her reach.

"I'm really fine. This is why you didn't want me to come out? You are afraid that I might be hurt and couldn't bear the pressure?"

Emily smiled and said helplessly, "Milo, you and Joseph have both looked down on me."

"That's not what I meant, it's just that ..." He didn't want her to get hurt anyway! "I'm really fine."

Emily took a deep breath and cheered up, "Let's go to see Grandpa."

Sawyer's condition was fairly stable, but he still couldn't wake up.

However, he was not in the intensive care unit now but had been transferred to the special care unit.

So the family members can visit him at any time.

Emily pulled out a chair and sat down by the bed. Then she held her grandfather's hand.

She had so many words that she wanted to say, but didn't know where to start.

If she had known that he was her grandfather in the first place, she should have

stayed by his side and accompanied him all along.

Grandpa was already so old, and his days were literally numbered ...

A trace of sadness flashed through her eyes.

She didn't know how much time he had left; she only hated herself for not being able to stay by his side earlier and take good care of him!

"Grandpa," Emily choked.

So many words were stuck in her throat and just couldn't get out.

In the end, she wiped her tears and squeezed out a smile, "Grandpa, now that we're together as a family, please get better soon. No matter what is going on and how rough it is, as long as you get better, we'll definitely get through this."

"You want Emily?"

Joseph didn't expect that Hunter would raise such a condition.

Hunter and Emily had been together for a long time. In fact, if they were happy

with each other, the Gales had no reason to separate them.

Moreover, as far as he knew, Emily indeed had feelings for Hunter.

Or she wouldn't be willing to bear his child.

Even though she was forced to at that time, she had never thought of having an abortion. Therefore, Joseph could tell that she must be in love with the father of the child, too.

But why would Hunter raise this as a condition now?

Joseph thought for a moment before his face suddenly darkened.

"Mr. Jackson, why do you have to humiliate Emily in such a disrespectful way?

She's merely a little girl. How could she possibly offend you?"

"As you said, she's just a little girl. So what do you think is the meaning for me to humiliate her?"

Hunter lit a cigarette for himself and casually had a whiff of it.

Behind the smoke, his face was filled with wildness.

He was like a cheetah so dangerous that people would put themselves on guard

instinctively.

He looked at Joseph and smiled, "I want the Gales to give her to me with your own hands.

Chapter 433: It Could Not Be Long a Secret

Hunter wanted the Gale family send Emily to him!

Hunter didn't want to humiliate Emily. He wanted to humiliate the whole Gale family!

"Why?" Joseph clenched his fists tightly, and he felt his anger rising!

"When did our Gale family offend you? Why do you hate us so much?" Joseph asked.

If grandpa knew about such a humiliation, he would definitely be so angry that he would be in the depths of despair.

What benefits could Hunter get from this?

"You don't need to know my grudge against your family. And this is my only request."

Joseph got mad, while Hunter was calm.

"Furthermore, my request may change at any time. If you don't want the Gale Group to be in a difficult situation, I advise you to make a decision earlier, Young Master Joseph."

"Young Master Hunter..."

"For the time being, I don't have much time to think about these things."

Hunter stood up. He just stayed for a few minutes, and he was leaving now.noveldrama

Joseph knew that Hunter was busy and the latter didn't intentionally leave him alone.

However, Joseph could not agree to his request.

"Since I can't meet your requirement, please forget it, Young Master Hunter."

Joseph took his briefcase and turned around to leave.

However, Hunter stared at his back and said slowly, "You knew that she was my woman. You don't need to refuse me so thoroughly."

Joseph stopped and turned to look at him, pursing his thin lips tightly.

"I don't know why you want to take revenge on the Gale family, but you hurt her as

you made this request. Have you ever thought of that?"

"She's your woman, but she's not your doll!" Joseph added.

After that, Joseph left with anger.

And he slammed the door behind him.

However, Hunter just smoked, and he showed no emotion to what Joseph said.

Hurt?

Did they consider his feelings when they joined forces to hurt him?

Everyone had to pay for what they had done!

"Young Master Hunter, it seems that Wendy's backer is Young Master Porter. So..."

"Is it necessary to hold him to account?" Hunter sneered and interrupted Liam.

"Since what they did didn't harm the Gale Group's interests, I don't need to interfere."

However, Liam was still worried.

"Young Master Hunter, why... why must you hurt Miss Emily? Back then..."

"Don't mention what happened back then!"

Hunter fiercely put his cigarette out on an ashtray.

His face was so cold as if he was from the hell.

His child was dead, and his woman left him. Even if Emily came back to him, she

was not the one he once loved.

He just took her as a toy!

"Tell her the condition I negotiated with Joseph. Let her make a decision!"

"Young Master Hunter..." Liam was in a dilemma.

This was truly too hurtful for Emily!

"What? Do you think I am merciless?" Hunter sneered and gave Liam a sidelong glance.

His eyes were actually chill to the bone.

However, Liam knew that this chill was not directed at him.

Hunter hated the Gale family, especially Sawyer!

For an old man in his seventies, he might not be able to endure such a

humiliation.

However, Hunter wouldn't consider it.

"Joseph isn't stressed enough. Give him more pressure."

"Young Master Hunter..."

"If you don't want to do that, you can leave at any time. If you don't leave, do your best!"

Liam followed behind Hunter and sighed helplessly as he looked at Hunter's cold back.

He wouldn't leave Hunter! No matter what happened, he would not leave!

He was just... afraid that Hunter would regret it in the future.

If Hunter insisted to do so, it would not only hurt Emily but also hurt himself, wouldn't it?

Would he really be happy?

Sawyer finally began to pick up.

That day, Emily accompanied him in the hospital all day.

In the afternoon, she was rubbing his hands. She didn't expect that he moved his

fingers slightly.

Emily was afraid that it was her illusion, so she didn't call the doctor. She continued to rub his hands. About ten seconds later, he actually moved his fingers again.

This time, it was absolutely no longer an illusion!

The doctor was here, and the whole Gale family was here.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief at the doctor's announcement.

The doctor said that Sawyer would wake up in a few days.

"Thank heavens!" Lottie began to be superstitious.

She made phone calls to asked servants to pray for Sawyer.

Sasha stayed with Sawyer and refused to leave the hospital whatever others said.

Francis and Joseph also stayed in the ward for more than two hours before they

left.

"Look, Dad's hand is starting to have strength. He even held my hand lightly just now!" Sasha sobbed.

She almost burst into tears with joy and turned to look at Lottie.

Lottie just called the servants and instructed them to prepare something for worship.

Seeing Sasha's appearance, Lottie was also moved.

"He'll be fine. Dad is a good person. Good people will live a long life. He will wake up soon and get better."

Sasha nodded and turned to look at Emily standing beside. She said, "Emi, thank you for staying with Dad and taking good care of him every day."

"It's my duty to take care of grandpa. Besides, I..."

Emily suddenly stopped in the middle of her speech. Her face changed as she covered her mouth.

"Emi?" Sasha frowned.

Lottie also noticed that Emily was strange. She was about to go over, and she asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Emily managed to hold back the nausea.

However, she still felt nauseous. She was afraid that she would vomit up, so she said, “Perhaps I have stayed in the ward for too long and I feel a little uncomfortable. I'm going out for a walk."

"Don't go far. Your grandpa may wake up at any moment."

"Aunt Lottie, don't be so anxious. The doctor said that grandpa wouldn't wake up

until the day after tomorrow."

Lottie nodded and smiled.

Indeed, she was too anxious.

After that, Emily hurried out of the ward, and quickly walked towards the end of

the corridor.

There was a bathroom.

She was going to retch!

Recently, the frequency of her retching was increasing. Her morning sickness was getting more obvious.

If it continued, how long could she kept it a secret?

Grandpa was getting better, but Emily was afraid that he would be ill again in anger if he knew her secret. She was pregnant without a husband, and the baby's father did not like them.

What should she do?

Emily rested in the bathroom for a long time until she was sure that she wouldn't vomit again. Then, she washed her face and came out of the bathroom.

Just as she walked to the corner of the corridor and was about to return to the ward, she suddenly heard a familiar voice.

The man was clearly in anger and he asked, "Did you say that Hunter wanted Emi?"00000000

Chapter 434: I Was with Him

That was Francis's voice, which was indignant.

Emily was astounded. Young Master Hunter... Were they talking about Hunter?

Why did Hunter want her? She had been his woman already!

Joseph was also very angry, but his anger wasn't as clear as Francis'.

"Yes," said Joseph. When he thought of that Hunter spoke with unconcern, Joseph felt an urge to smoke.

"No! He's a bastard. We can't send Emi to him!" Francis punched the wall in anger.

The Gale family would never sell a family member for glory!

Joseph turned around and looked at the distant horizon. "I didn't agree," he said indifferently.

Francis knew that Joseph would definitely not agree to such a thing.

However, Joseph was tired out in the past few days. Although Francis did not participate in it, he could tell that Joseph was tired.

Standing behind Joseph, Francis could clearly feel the former was overwhelmed. Joseph was carrying the burden of the entire Gale family.

Francis finally hated himself a little. In the past, he was unwilling to work in the Gale Group. Now, he wanted to help but he could do nothing.

"Joseph, when grandpa asked you to work in the Gale Group, did you... resist?”

Actually, Francis still remembered one thing very clearly. He knew that Joseph liked painting since they were little kids.

Joseph once dreamed to be a painter.

As for Francis, he was used to living a carefree life. When he grew up, there were many things he wanted to do, but he was unwilling to be in business.

Thus, he directly told his grandfather that he did not like to work in the Gale Group.

What about Joseph?

Francis had never heard Joseph talking about his dream since they were adults. "Why should I resist?" Joseph looked back at Francis as if looking at a little kid.

In fact, Joseph was only a year older than Francis.

"But..."

"Besides, you had resisted. I couldn't resist either."

Joseph smiled. However, he had a lot on his mind in these days, thus he smiled with a heavy heart.

"There are only two children who can take over grandpa's business in the family, you and me. You're gone. If I leave too, grandpa may die of anger..."

In the current situation, the word 'die' seemed a little unlucky.

Joseph stopped. He looked at the time and said, "If you have nothing else to do, you can stay and look after them for a few days. I have to leave now."noveldrama

Francis knew that Joseph had endless work to do.

He nodded, "Don't worry. I'll take good care of the women at home."

"OK."

Joseph did not show the slightest bit of pretentiousness. He could be at ease if Francis took good care of the women at home.

"Keep an eye on Emi. You have to take good care of her."

Although Francis didn't think that Emily needed to be taken care of since she was healthy, he thought that Joseph must have a reason.

He nodded and said, "OK. Don't worry."

Joseph glanced at the door in the distance again. Although he was still a little worried, he really had to leave.

Now that Hunter was unwilling to help them, Joseph could only have a talk with the company's senior directors.

However, recently, it was clear that someone was purchasing the Gale Group's shares outside.

He had already had someone rush to buy the shares, even in a high price. But they were not as fast as that person.

Someone wanted to take down the Gale Group. It seemed to be Hunter, but Wendy's partner was not him.

Joseph was confused.

He only knew that this person was really powerful!

After Joseph left, Francis was about to go back to the ward to see his grandfather.

Unexpectedly, he turned around and saw a slender figure standing at the corner.

"Emi?" Francis was stunned. He looked at her and then at the direction where Joseph left.

Suddenly, Francis was nervous and he asked, "Emi, when did you come? Just now..."

"I heard everything I should hear." Emily was expressionless. She had processed

all the shock and confusion.

"Hunter said he wanted me, right?"

"No... no, you misheard. How is that possible?"

Francis forced a smile.

Joseph had told him that they must hide it from the women in the family, especially Emily.

But he didn't expect that Emily was actually here and heard their conversation.

Francis smiled at her and lied, "Just now, Joseph only said that you knew Hunter before. You are all from the Bentson City."

"Francis, what's the point of lying to me at this time?"

Emily walked over and stared at Francis' awkward smile. She said, "I heard everything. Hunter said that he wanted to get me in return."

She was so calm and showed no emotion on her face. That was not for her age.

"Emi..."

"What did Joseph talk to Hunter about? What do they want to exchange?"

It was all her fault. These days, she was only focus on finding grandpa.

After she found grandpa, she only stayed by grandpa's side.

She had never put much attention on the business of Gale Group.

She thought that she didn't know anything, and as long as Joseph was there, he

would definitely solve all the problems.

However, she didn't notice that Hunter might be one of Joseph's opponents.

No matter how powerful Joseph was, he would probably lose to Hunter.

In both her previous life and this life, Emily had never seen that Hunter suffered a

single defeat in the business!

Moreover, apart from Hunter, there was also the power behind Wendy!

Francis hesitated, not knowing whether to tell her or not.

Joseph didn't want him to say more, but it seemed that Emily wouldn't give up

until she got an answer.

He sighed and looked at Emily. He asked, "You and Hunter..."

"I have been with him. We were together before, then we separated, and later..."

She bit her lower lip. It was a humiliation for her.

However, at this point, she didn't need to care about that humiliation.

"Later, for some reason, I was still with him... No, exactly, I am a toy for him."

"Emi!" Francis's face darkened. How could she say such words to humiliate herself?

However, Emily was calm.

Looking at Francis's eyes, she smiled lightly, "This is the truth. I don't need to hide

it from you at this point. Francis, tell me, what exactly did Joseph want to talk to Hunter about? What does he want Hunter to agree to?"☐☐☐☐☐

Chapter 435: He Couldn’t See Through Her

Sawyer's condition was more stable. The doctor concluded that he would

definitely wake up tomorrow night at the earliest, and the morning after tomorrow at the latest.

Emily felt relieved.

That night, she made an excuse and left the hospital. But she didn't go back to the Gale's house.

She went to another place.

The door of the room was actually no different from a normal top-grade suite.

However, it seemed to be chilling, perhaps because it was his room.

Emily knocked on the door. It was Liam who opened the door.

Liam didn't seem to be surprised at all.

Emily had to suppose that they knew her whereabouts well all the time.

Liam's expression was unacceptable for Emily.

She wondered if they knew she was coming.

Emily felt a stronger bitterness, but there was nothing she could do about it.

"Miss Emily, you are here." Sure enough, Liam didn't hide that he knew she would

come.

"Why do you know I would come here?" Emily frowned, still unhappy.

She believed that her two cousins, Francis and Joseph, would never expose her whereabouts.

Moreover, they had no idea that she would come here.

If they knew, they would definitely stop her.

"Nothing. Young Master Hunter guessed that you would come."

Liam smiled and opened the door.

Emily took a deep breath and walked in.

Liam did not say a word and left.

The moment the door was closed behind her, for some reason, she suddenly felt that she returned to the gilded cage.

Emily stood behind the door, staring at the man and clenching her fists tightly. He was sitting on the sofa and drinking wine.

Hunter didn't even look up as he poured himself a glass of wine while reading some files.

Emily did not know how long she had been looking at him. Both of them kept silence, and the air in the room became even gloomier.

After a long while, Emily took a deep breath and walked towards him.

"Young Master Hunter, can I have a talk with you?"

"Do you think you can enter my room if I don't agree to talk with you?"

Hunter still did not look up. He finished reading the files and threw them aside, and then he poured himself a glass of wine.

When he was drinking, he leaned against the sofa and glanced at her indifferently.

He was indifferent, but at the very least, he gave her the chance to speak.

After all, he "agreed" to let her in, didn't he?

"Why did you tell Joseph that you want me in exchange?"

Hunter's indifference suddenly diverted Emily from what she was thinking before entering the room.

Hunter picked up the glass and looked at her indifferently.

This kind of gaze sank Emily into slight unease.

She never was able to see through this man's thoughts. She never was able to guess what he was thinking.

When she thought that she knew him well enough, maybe she was just cheating herself.

"Young Master Hunter, what exactly do you want?"

"I want you." Hunter's indifference almost drove Emily crazy.

He smiled, "Didn't I say it clearly?"

Emily did not know if he was serious.

"I don't think I deserve this."

After all, their agreement hadn't come to an end. If he really wanted her, she couldn't resist.

What was the point of him doing this?

"I said I want you." Hunter was not joking at all.

However, his next words made Emily felt chill to the bone.noveldrama

"I have only one request. The Gale family should send you to me personally."

"Hunter Jackson!" Emily clenched her fists tightly and immediately understood his intention. "You want to humiliate the Gale family!"

"Looks like you're not stupid." In front of her, Hunter had no intention of hiding anything.

His smile chilled Emily.

She clenched her fists and trembled. She asked, "Why?"

"You don't need to know the reason."

"So, even if I tell you that I will be back with you, you won't give the Gale family a helping hand, right?"

It wasn't that she didn't want her self-esteem, but she knew that Joseph had really done his best.

The Gale family was in a dangerous situation under Wendy's leadership.

In any case, Emily thought that she was already defeated enough, so it didn't

matter if she was sent to Hunter to be humiliated.

However, what he wanted to humiliate now was not her, but the whole Gale family.

She wouldn't allow it!

"I won't make the Gale family get into such a state. I won't give you the satisfaction!"

If grandpa was humiliated, he would probably not be able to survive in his condition.

She didn't know the deep hatred between Hunter and the Gale family, but the most important thing for her now was that her grandpa got better!

Emily turned around and was about to leave.

Unexpectedly, before she could leave the room in the hotel, a strong and tall figure flashed in front of her, and then Hunter stood between her and the door. She even didn't have the chance to touch the door handle.

"Get away!" Emily's face darkened.

Hunter snorted coldly, "What do you want to do?"

"It's none of your business." No matter what she wanted to do, her purpose was to

make sure that nothing would happen to the Gale Group and grandpa!

As for her, she no longer cared about the so-called future!

"What exactly do you want to do?" Hunter narrowed his eyes and suddenly grabbed her wrist.

"Do you want to fight me?" Hunter asked coldly.

"I don't have the guts," Emily sneered, looking up at his cold eyes.

"I'm not in the position to fight you, do I?"

"Since you know that, don't try to do anything to anger me!"

He didn't know why her despondent appearance made him somewhat flustered.

However, Emily had despaired of him.

"I didn't want to anger you." Her voice was very calm. It wasn't that cold, but it just

had no emotion.

She didn't even show any signs of disappointment.

When you had no hope on him, you had no disappointment.

Disappointment didn't exist.

"Excuse me, Young Master Hunter, I have to leave now."

Hunter did not say anything, but he stared coldly at her face.

At this moment, he couldn't see through her at all.

He didn't like this feeling, and he had to see through her! He had to know what exactly she wanted to do.

"Young Master Hunter, you've pushed me away since you asked someone to change the hair samples of me and my grandpa. Right now, all I want to do is my own business. I don't think it has anything to do with you."

"I won't let you go, unless you tell me what exactly you want to do"

The uneasiness that came from the depths of his heart irritated Him.

However, Emily was still as peaceful as quiet water.

She shook her head and smiled, "Since it's useless to beg you, I can only find a

way by myself. Don't worry. I won't involve you in everything I do."
