    Chapter 20 Unexpectedly


    Norah’s words made Emily taken by surprise. She had made many efforts to investigate everything


    about the rk family and even their ancestors.


    But Emily heard nothing about the fact that Sebastian was an illegitimate child.


    Emily was scared out of her wits.


    “I know what you want to ask. Sebastian is a child of my blood.”


    She suddenly had a bold and arrogant conjecture that Norah had already been pregnant before she


    married into the rk family, just like her now.


    Emily moved her legs which had been insensible. Then she feigned to ask unconcernedly, “Since we


    have suffered mutual sympathy, Mrs. rk, why don’t you help me now…”


    She still wanted to say something else, but Norah stopped her, and then said arrogantly, “Miss Morris, I


    think you misunderstood me. The reason why I told you that is to let you give up before the impossible,


    not to let you keep doing this.”


    “Sebastian has always taken his identity to heart. Of course, he also knows that I made use of


    disgraceful means to marry into the rk family back then. He will never allow his child to be the same


    too.”


    Norah’s tone was not polite at all. Her eyes were full of contempt and arrogance when she spoke.


    When Emily first met her, she only felt that she was quite different from normal women. But now, she


    even thought this woman was perfect.


    A woman who could uncover her most painful memories was not likely to care about her little tricks.


    She knew very well what Emily was nning to do.Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org.


    Norah nced at her. She sneered and took out a check from her handbag, and then said impatiently,


    “I believe Sebastian has given you one chance, but you didn’t take that. You thought yourself clever


    and I was good-natured, so you could turn the tables, but you didn’t expect me to turn the cold shoulder


    to you.”


    The rich and influential rk family would give her a lot of money. Emily picked up the thin check to


    take a look, and then put it down. She hadn’t added the number on it yet.


    “Mrs. rk is really generous.” She stopped and smiled.


    Now the whole C City knew that she was a murderer, and had been in the prison for two years.


    Everyone looked down on her.


    If she couldn’t prove she was innocent, her father couldn’t die in peace. Then she could only disguise


    herself, have the jitters all day and live without dignity until her old age.


    “Miss Morris, think it over. Going abroad with the money is much happier than marring into the rk


    family.” After saying that to her, Norah gently pushed the check on the table in front of her, and got up


    to leave.


    When she passed by Emily, she nced at her and warned her, “Moreover, the rk family won’t


    ept a murderer. Do you think it’s very proud to ruin your sister’s marriage?”


    “Mrs. rk, you have the right to prevent me from marrying into the rk family, but please don’t judge


    me ording to those gossips.”


    Norah didn’t expect Emily to talk to her like this. She was not angry, “Whether you are innocent or


    guilty, it’s impossible for you to enter the rk family.”


    She suppressed the bitterness in her heart, and remained obedient on the surface. Then she asked in


    a roundabout way, “Did he hate you?”


    “Of course. Everyone wants to live a decent life.”


    What Norah said was concise andprehensive.


    In the meeting room at Seaview Properties.


    Sebastian had just finished a three-hour emergency meeting. Hope waited outside for more than an


    hour, and then came in when everyone was out.


    “Mr. rk, Miss Morris went to meet Mrs. rk. When Mrs. rk came out, she didn’t look well.”


    “Damn it.” He was so angry that he even clenched his fist and hit on the conference table, “Haven’t I


    told you to send someone to follow her all the day? What’s going on?”


    Hope pouted her lips and said, “Mr. rk, you said that we can’t let others know it’s you who send


    them. They were detained by security personnel when they arrived at K Restaurant.”


    “Take her to the hospital when you are free.” Sebastian raised his head to look at her and stopped


    gritting his teeth.


    Hope gasped with surprise at his words, “Mr. rk, but…”


    “What?” His eyes sparkled with rage, “You do not want to go or you are not capable?”


    Hope graduated from a famous university. In the first round of interview, Sebastian chose her to be his


    assistant. In the past five years, she had never let him down. No matter how difficult the work was, she


    could handle it easily.


    “Mr. rk, I have no experience in this field!”


    Sebastian looked sideways at her and said, “You will also give birth to a child in the future. You can


    learn it in advance.”


    When it came to this point, Hope thought she would lose her job if she wasn’t willing to. So, she went


    out in a sullen face.


    Sebastian leaned in the sofa, closed his eyes, and rubbed his forehead. Recently, he had been busy


    with his work and private affairs all day. Those who didn’t know what happened would think that he was


    lustful and tired of having fun every day.


    After a while, a person pressed her hands on his temple gently. Her force was light and soft, which


    almost made him put down his guard.


    Recently, he had been in contact with only one woman, and others could not have the guts toe on


    here.


    He still had his eyes closed and spoke in a deep voice, “Emily, you are really brazenfaced.”


    But before he finished, a woman’s sharp voice sounded, “Sebastian, who did you ask to learn in


    advance?”


    Sebastian quickly opened his eyes. The woman in front of him was Fiona, staring at himself with a


    smug smile.


    “Fiona, when did youe back?”


    Fiona was born after Norah married into the rk family. They got along well with each other since


    they were children. But when she was in college, Norah thought their grandfather and grandmother,


    who had been abroad all the year round, were lonely, so she asked Fiona to go abroad to study. So,


    she could have more time to stay with them.


    She wrapped her hands around Sebastian’s neck, staring at him and asked, “Sebastian, who is Emily?


    Your new girlfriend? Is she a celebrity or a young model?”


    “You little girl, don’t make a wild guess.” He reached out his hand and gently pinched her face.


    She looked at Sebastian andint, “Mom said you haven’t been home for a long time. Did you


    have a quarrel?”


    “Does she let youe as a persuader?”


    “No, I’m not even bothered about our family matters. I’ve been listening to you since I was a kid,


    haven’t I?” Fiona said gently, “I won’t run against you!”


    “Let me treat you to a dinner. You call the restaurant, just like before.”


    “No way. I have a date with someone today.”


    “A boy or girl?” Sebastian raised his eyebrows and wondered who was more important than him.


    “None of your business. So far no one has dared to kidnap your sister.” Fiona got up and left. When


    she got to the door, she snapped her finger and said, “By the way, take me to meet Emily when you


    have time off.”
