E City
At the entrance of a small vi worth 5 million, luggage and clothes were strewn about everywhere. A man and a woman stood in the pouring rain, looking utterly miserable!
In the sweltering summer, a heavy rain was supposed to bring infinite coolness to this city. However, tonight, this torrential downpour, to Emily Walker, was like an icy, bone-piercing sword, mercilessly stabbing in her heart!
Get lost, and dont stand at the entrance of my house like a pitiful dog! From the balcony on the second floor of the vi, another suitcase was harshly tossed down, coupled with a middle-aged womans ruthless cursing!
The figure standing in the heavy rain raised her head at the sound. She was about twenty years old. She looked at the balcony on the second floor, this vi, which was her home until today, but now she was driven out by the middle-aged woman in front of her!
Raindrops hit her chilly cheeks, it was unclear whether it was rain or tears, but her eyes, full of hatred, were stubbornly staring at the woman on the balcony, her once called Second Mother!
Looking at the sister and brother under the balcony, Elia Parker raised a cold sneer of triumph, and after throwing them a cold nce, she turned and went back into the house.
Elia Parker! The eighteen-year-old Wace Carter looked at the woman who turned around and entered the house, his eyes filled with anger, he roared with hate!
But what returned to the sister and brother was the increasing merciless heavy rain!
Sister Seeing his sister standing in the heavy rain, Wace hated that he didnt possess millions of assets, and didnt have the ability to protect everything of the Carter Family!
Emilys gaze always stayed on the balcony. Her cold eyes seemed to have made a silent vow. Her clenched fists plunged her nails into her flesh until she couldnt feel the pain.
She swore that she would absolutely take back everything that belonged to her father!
Withdrawing her gaze, Emily turned and looked at the luggage thrown in the heavy rain, walked over, crouched on the ground, and packed the already soaked clothes into the suitcase.
Wace also turned around, looking at another suitcase thrown into the middle of the road, and walked over without hesitation!
The next second, while Emily was still picking up clothes, she suddenly heard a rushing brake sound piercing through her eardrums. She involuntarily frowned and when she raised her head, she only saw her little brother being hit and thrown ten meters away!N?v(el)B\\jnn
She lifted her eyes in horror, staring frozenly at the motionless Wace not far away. For an instant, she felt like everything had stopped, the air around her was pulled away and she felt a numbness in her chest, watching nkly not far away.
Wace Looking at her brother lying not far away, Emily tried to call out with a trembling voice after a moment, then she got up in a panic and ran there!
Her legs seemed to lose their strength, fell t on the ground after a few steps, but quickly got up and continued to rush towards her brother, Wace.
An intense pain seemed to tear her chest apart, making her almost unable to breathe!
Wace Wace Emily picked up her brother from the ground, but no matter how much she called, Wace on the ground still kept his eyes tightly shut, without any sign of life.
She helplessly raised her head, wanting to ask for help from the surrounding people, but when she raised her head, she only saw the perpetrator driving away quickly!
Looking around, there was nobody to be seen, only private cars were still moving one after another in the heavy rain, but not a single car was willing to stop and help them.
Due to the ident and the storm, the following cars also gradually slowed down.

Noticing the car suddenly slowing down, the man in the back seat of a ck Bentley slightly raised his head, his brows slightly furrowed, seemingly displeased, Whats the matter?
The driver nced at his master in the back seat, and then at the helpless man and woman outside the car window, feeling somewhat sympathetic, Young Lord, up ahead
The man faintly shifted his gaze, his indifferent eyes briefly scanning Emily Walker outside the window, then lowering them again, continuing to look at the document he was about to sign. Apparently, everything outside the car window had nothing to do with him.
In the pouring rain, Emily sat on the ground, looking down at her little brother in her arms, her heart filled with helplessness and fear at this moment!
She raised her head, holding Wace in the merciless rain, and screamed up at the sky as if to vent all the pain and hatred in her heart, letting the cold raindrops ruthlessly hit her cheeks!
One monthter.
Husband, have youe up with a solution yet?! Inside the living room, Emma Hudson looked at Henry Adams on the sofa with a face full of disappointment and anxiety.
Henry took a puff of his cigarette, exhaling a long cloud of smoke, his face full of worry as well.N?v(el)B\\jnn
What can I do? I heard that the CEO of Futuren Group doesnt drink and isnt lustful. What can I do about that?
Upon hearing this, Emma gave a sneer and said, Not lustful? You think that theres a man in this world who isnt lustful?
In her eyes, all crows under the sun are ck and no one is an exception. Even Henry himself, if not for her management, would have long been indulging himself in wine and pleasure!
Henry looked at his wife, feeling that she didnt understand anything about mens affairs!
Then you tell me, have you heard of any scandals between the Young Lord and any woman? People say that even when he goes to various entertainment venues, he never calls for women, understand?
How could he possibly be satisfied with the women from those ces? You dont even look at the Young Lords status. If you send Emily there, I guarantee he wont refuse! Emma blurted out without thinking, as if she had already nned it.
Having said that, Emma rolled her eyes confidently.
But Henry turned his head in astonishment, looking at her and saying, What did you say? Send Emily?
Hearing his surprised tone, Emma immediately felt unpleased and said bitterly, What, you cant bear to part with her? Shes living in our house for free, cant she help with this?
One month ago, Emily, who had nowhere to go and no home to return to, had to temporarily move in with her uncles family. She knew her aunt didnt like her, and after her mother passed away, if it wasnt for the business dealings between them, her father might not even have any contact with her uncle.
Because of their business connection and because her family was much wealthier than her uncles, Henry was naturally very close to his niece. However, his wife was another story. She liked Emilys familys previous condition, not her niece.
Henry sighed, Its not a matter of helping or not helping, Emily is only 20 years old, shes still a college student.
If Emily were really sent to the CEO of Futuren Group, wouldnt that be harming her?
What college student? Shes already dropped out of school, now shes just a working girl, do you still think shes Miss Rich from the Carter Family? Emma said unhappily!
Initially, she didnt agree to let Emily live with them. If it wasnt for Henry, she would have kicked Emily out long ago!

Anyway, Emily is still a child. How can we do this to her and face my deceased sister? Thinking of Emilys mother who passed away years ago from illness, Henry Adams felt somewhat mncholic.
After all, she was his own niece, and he was a little reluctant to do this.
Your sister is no longer in this world, do you care more about your niece or me and your children!? Emma Hudson became angrier as she thought about the husband who always protected an outsider over his own family. Was Emily more important than her own family?
You Henry Adams was helpless, and for a moment, he was indecisive. Their family was on the verge of bankruptcy. If they could get close to the Young Lord and receive support from Futuren Group, perhaps the Adams Family could revive!
Just think about it. If Emily is really favored by the Young Lord, then we might be able to afford Waces surgery, isnt that right? Seeing him wavering, Emma Hudson immediately added fuel to the fire!
Hearing this, Henry Adams looked at her; perhaps this was indeed a perfect solution for both parties.

8:30 PM, Futuren Hotel, 68th floor, outside the presidential suite.
Make way! At the entrance of room 6808 not far away, a young girl red angrily at two ck-dressed men at the doorway, Dont you know who I am!?
The two men on the receiving end of the re looked at the girl in front of them and then nced at each other. In the end, they chose to remain silent.N?v(el)B\\jnn
You! Cam Walker stared angrily at the two men in front of her, stepping forward and reaching out with her delicate hand, she physically dragged the bodyguards out of her way and forcefully knocked on the door, Lord Stuart,e out!
She had already followed him to this point; that damned Stuart had blocked her entrance to the room!
Lady Walker, the Young Lord is really not in a good mood today. You shoulde back another day. The room door opened, and a man emerged from inside. Seeing Cam Walkers furious expression, he knew she was eager to see the Young Lord, but it was true that the Young Lords mood was terrible today. It would be better if they didnt meet.
Young Lord Stuart, the legendary character of E City, with wealth and power to rival nations, and his wless appearance has women from all over the country vying for his attention.
You dare to stop me too? Cam Walker looked at the man in front of her with arrogance, as if no one in the world is capable of obstructing her path.
Just as she was about to explode in anger, the man whispered something in Cams ear, her face changed quickly, and she nced unwillingly at the man and left the 68th floor.
Seeing her finally leave, yton Howard breathed a sigh of relief.
.
Inside the room, Baron Stuart impatiently tore off his necktie, his face filled with anger. The raging aura emitting from him was not something anyone would dare to approach casually, as if being on the edge of a volcano, ready to explode!
He pulled off his necktie, opened the cor of his white shirt, and turned to walk into the bathroom. He turned on the faucet and let the cold water pour down over his head, as if trying to extinguish the fire in his heart!
Half an hourter, Baron Stuart emerged from the bathroom wearing a bathrobe. His face was much calmer than before.
Since he went directly into the bathroom before, the lights in the room were not turned on, with only a small tablemp casting a faint glow on the dim room.
Through the dim light, Baron Stuart approached the bedside, his brows furrowing slightly, as he felt a hint of displeasure.

Trantor:549690339
Who would dare to turn off the lights in his room when everyone knows he doesnt like dimness?
Raising his hand to turn on the light in the room, it instantly lit up. Perhaps because he drank too much, his chest felt stuffy, and his mood was extremely irritated. Now he just wanted to lie down on the bed and rest for a while.
But just as he was about to sit on the edge of the bed and lift the thin quilt, his hand touched not bedding, butsmooth skin.N?v(el)B\\jnn
The delicate touch told him that such smooth, soft skin could only belong to a woman.
Yet, why would a woman be in his room, let alone on his bed?
At this time, the person on the bed seemed to have woken up, her brows furrowed and she appeared a bit uneasy.
Baron Stuarts mood was already terrible today, but for some reason, he suddenly had a lot of patience. He wanted to see how this woman had climbed onto his bed and slept so soundly!
Emily Walker furrowed her brows in difort and then slowly opened her eyes, her head throbbing.
At the moment she opened her eyes, an exceedingly handsome face appeared, and for a moment, sleepy Emily was almost entranced
Indeed, such a good-looking man seemed like something that could only exist in dreams. How could there be such an attractive man in reality!
Seeing the woman lying on his bed staring at him, Baron Stuart expressionlessly spoke, Have you seen enough?
Huh? Hes talking to her? Those who look good must have nice voices as well
Emily didnt reply. Instead, she slowly extended her fair-skinned arm with a dazed smile, stretched her fingers and gently touched Baron Stuarts stunningly beautiful face.
This good-looking man had to be touched to see if he was real!
Wow, it felt so good, his skin seemed even smoother than a womans.
Seeing the jade-like hand stretching towards him, Baron Stuart was a bit stunned. In his 28 years, no woman other than his mother had dared toe this close to him, let alone touch him.
Grabbing the hand that was wandering randomly on his face, Baron Stuarts expression turned cold, and he asked, Who sent you?
Huh? Emily was startled. The man was talking again; but now his voice was so cold that she felt like she wasnt in a quilt, but on an iceberg!
Emilys silence caused Baron Stuart to grip her hand tighter, so tight that she felt pain!
This wasnt right! Wasnt this a dream? How could she feel pain!?
Not going to speak? Baron Stuarts gaze narrowed, staring directly at the woman in front of him.
Saywhat? Emily seemedpletely sober now, and looked at the man before her with a hint of fear. She had never seen this man before, and felt an overwhelming pressure from him that made it difficult for her to breathe.
Especially the inherent noble aura emanating from him, it made her somewhat apprehensive and tense.
Who sent you? Today, the young Lord had an unusual amount of patience, so he repeated the same question as before.
As soon as the words left his mouth, the young Lord was slightly stunned; it had never happened before that he would repeat the same words twice.
Emily looked puzzled at the mans words and furrowed her brows in confusion, then looked around the unknown room.
Following that, Emily was dumbfounded. What kind of ce was this!? How did she end up here?
Emilys eyes widened, she looked back at Baron Stuart, Wh-what is this ce? Andwho are you?
Chapter 5 - 5: 5: Get out of here!
Chapter 5 - 5: 5: Get out of here!
Trantor:549690339
Oh my God, why is she in an unknown room? And theres a strange man sitting by the bed!
Hearing this, Baron Stuart squints, finding it interesting that the woman who climbed into his bed is asking him who he is!
With a charming smile at the corner of his mouth, he looks at Emily Walker and asks nonchntly, You climbed into my bed and youre asking me who I am?
His bed? Emily looks dumbfounded, and then falls into deep thought
She remembers that just before dinner, her aunt was suddenly very nice to her C almost ttering. She was even pouring her wine and making amends. Then she remembers pouring her aunt a cup of wine, and after that, everything is a blur
Could it be?
Emilys eyes widen in shock as she looks at the man in front of her!
Her uncle mentioned that hispany was facing bankruptcy and the only savior for hispany would be the Futuren Group. A few days ago, her uncle even told her that if she could get close to any of the directors from the Futuren Group, hispany would be saved. The condition? That she must sell her unsullied body to a stranger
Shes only 20 years old; how could she willingly give her body to a stranger C possibly even an old man?
Even if she had to do it, it would have to be with the Futuren Groups CEO C Baron Stuart!
Of course, she knows that its impossible to get close to the young Lord. There were even rumors that he never indulged in femalepany, making her wonder if he was gay!
She refused, but what she didnt expect was that her aunt would plot against her!
Emily looks at the handsome man in front of her, and then at the unknown room, worrying as she asks Baron Stuart, You, are you the master of this room?
He looks at her calmly, his voice deep and steady, Of course.
He cant help but scoff inwardly, wondering if ying innocent is every womans nature. Having eagerly climbed into his bed, she turns around and asks him if hes the master of the room.
Hmm? Or maybe she wants to make sure that hes Baron Stuart before she attacks him?
What, um, what is your position in the Futuren Group? Emily looks at him cautiously, her voice soft.
All she knows is that her uncle wants her to be sent to a director in the Futuren Group, but she doesnt know who it is.
Her question causes Baron Stuarts eyes to narrow slightly C does this woman genuinely not know, or is she feigning ignorance?
Who do you think I am? Baron Stuart counters, wanting to see what this woman is truly after.
Emily hesitates for a moment, then says, I dont know.
She really doesnt know C all she knows is that he might be one of the directors at the Futuren Group. But could there really be such a young director?
Or could her uncle and aunt have made a mistake and sent her to the wrong room? If that were the case, it would be great!
Then get out. Baron Stuart says coldly, standing up from the bed.
It seems that all women like to act innocent and pretentious C even after doing everything they can to climb into his bed, they start ying dumb with him!N?v(el)B\\jnn
Upon hearing this, Emily is taken aback and somewhat confused, wondering what kind of creature the man in front of her is and why he suddenly turned against her C did she offend him?
But this suits her just fine C she couldnt ask for more!
Without saying another word, Emily quickly sits up, crawls out of the quilt, and gets out of bed. However, as soon as she leaves the quilt, a wave of cold envelops her entire body
Chapter 6 - 6: 6: Are You Sick!?
Chapter 6 - 6: 6: Are You Sick!?
Trantor:549690339
Her eyes widened, observing herpletely naked body!
Aunt, it must have been Aunt!
Without giving her time to think, Emily Walker abruptly turned back to the quilt, her gaze frantically searching for her clothes. However, in the enormous room, she saw no trace of her garments!
While in her fluster, her eyes met another pair of dark eyes, causing Emilys cheeks to instantly turn crimson. She wished she could burrow her way into the ground!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Baron Stuart was initially nning to leave, but after witnessing her pure white glossy body, he involuntarily swallowed.
Generally, a womans body didnt give him any sensation, but today, an unusual thumping started in his heart, what was happening?
Emily lowered her eyes, then quickly lifted her head again, desiring to find her clothes. But in the entire room, apart from her small backpack, there was nothing to cover her body, barring the bedding and bedsheets.
If Aunts n had failed, she certainly wouldnt continue to stay there. She needed to leave before Uncle and Aunt found out!
Irrespective of anything else, Emily grabbed the sheet around her, then rolled out of the bed, wrapped up in it. She felt the burning gaze fixed upon her but dared not meet it, stepping away from the ce where Baron Stuart was standing, and headed towards the wardrobe.
Watching the woman wrapped in a sheet, Baron Stuart knew that underneath those sheets was her smooth white skin. Thinking about it made him swallow again.
But the very next second, his pupils tightened watching Emily.
What was this woman doing? Daring to rummage through his wardrobe!?
In his entire life, apart from the servants, no woman had ever dared to mess with his stuff!
Hey! What do you think youre doing?! Baron Stuart took a step forward as if shot from an arrow, yanking Emily, who had just opened the wardrobe door, towards him, pulling her a Thousand Miles Away
The sudden scolding startled Emily. Then she felt a force pulling her backwards. Unprepared, she stumbled a few steps before falling to the ground. In the panic, the hand tightly clutching the sheet rxed and it fell to the ground.
Thankfully, the room was carpeted, so falling didnt cause much pain. But being exposed once again made Emily furious!
To the man in front of her, she red up, Are you out of your mind?!
She just wanted to find some clothes to put on and leave, and this man had the audacity toy hands on her? It was such a waste for a man with his face that could charm women all over the world!
This was the first time Baron Stuart was yelled at by a woman, making him somewhat angry, Who gave you permission to rummage through my things?
Emily was momentarily at a loss for words, realizing she really might have crossed a line.
But was it necessary for him toy hands on her!? I was wrong. I just wanted to find some clothes so I can leave
Due to her state ofplete undress, Emily was somewhat embarrassed, her voice as thin as a mosquito.
Listening to her, Baron Stuart looked at her, confused about what this woman was trying to do. She was the one who came looking for him, and now she was rushing to leave.
However, if she wanted to leave, he naturally saw no reason to stop her. He went to the wardrobe, picked out a white shirt, and tossed it to her.
Unintentionally, his gaze once again fell on her half-hidden body, causing Baron Stuarts breath to quicken slightly. He didnt understand what was going on with him. There had been countless times when naked women had stood before him, and he hadnt felt a thing, but today somehow
Chapter 7 - 7: 7 What’s Wrong with You?
Chapter 7 - 7: 7 Whats Wrong with You?
Trantor:549690339
Although the woman in front of him had in features and an average body, a burning heat rose within him inexplicably. What was wrong with him!
Baron Stuarts throat felt dry, and his gaze shifted to a ss of red wine on the table.
He walked over to the ss, picked it up, and drank it all at once, hoping to quench the fire inside him with the cold liquid.
Thank you. Could you please lend me a pair of trousers? Emily Walker put on the gentlemans white shirt. Although it was quiterge, it could only cover her body. She couldnt just leave with nothing covering her lower body, could she?
Baron Stuart turned to Emily upon hearing her voice, and his eyesnded on her once again. Compared to her naked body before, she looked even more tempting in his shirt now!
Ignoring the heat within him, Baron Stuart went to the wardrobe and took out another pair of his trousers for Emily.
What was wrong with him today? It was so abnormal for him to patiently lend his clothes to an unrted stranger.
Emily took the ck trousers and put them on
A momentter, Emily looked somewhat helpless in the mans clothes.
Just how tall was this man? His clothes were so long that she would beughed at if she went out dressed like this!
Uhm Emily raised her head and looked at Baron Stuart again, Do you have anything smaller?
Baron Stuart nced at her but didnt respond, because he realized that the heat within him was growing even stronger, and it was not due to his own desire.
What was going on? ncing at the wine ss on the table, Baron Stuart suddenly understood C someone had spiked his wine! But who!?
He looked back at the woman standing nearby. At this moment, his pupils turned a deep red. Could it be that all of this was part of this womans scheme?
Suppressing his desires, Baron Stuart took one step at a time towards Emily.
Emily watched the man approaching her, and seeing his tense expression, she couldnt help but be puzzled. Whats wrong with you?
Baron Stuart didnt reply, as he steadily closed in on her.
Seeing the mans bright red eyes and sensing the danger he posed, Emily grew uneasy and began to back away, her voice filled with rm. What-what do you want to do?
Baron Stuart came closer to her and immediately grabbed her chin, his voice threatening and cold. Since youve been so calcting, should I make your wishe true?N?v(el)B\\jnn
What? Emily didnt understand, her chin aching slightly from his grip.
Before she could gather her thoughts, she felt the ground disappear beneath her feet as she was lifted into the air and then ced down on the soft,fortable bed!
What-what are you doing!? Even a fool could guess what the man was about to do next, but she didnt understand why he had suddenly be interested in her, considering he showed no interest just a moment ago.
Ah! Let me go! Before she could sort out her thoughts, a heavy body pressed down on her small frame.
Isnt all of this what you meticulously nned? Dont you want to get into my bed? Baron Stuarts voice was cold, his breathing bing more rapid as he appeared to restrain himself from losing control.
I who wants to get into your bed! You let me go! Emily grew more and more frightened, struggling desperately, her eyes filling with tears.

Trantor:549690339
Tell you what, if you want to scheme against Baron Stuart, youll have to pay the price! After he said that, Baron Stuart couldnt control himself any longer and began to tear at Emily Walkers clothes!
Emily, who had been struggling, suddenly stopped when she heard his words, momentarily forgetting to resist.
Baron Stuart? Which Baron Stuart? The Young Lord from Futuren Group?
Baronyou, you are the Young Lord from Futuren GroupuhC Before she could finish speaking, Emilys lips were rudely sealed by someone!
If he really was the Young Lord of Futuren Groupthen could her n begin?
Anyway, if this man was indeed the famous man in the world, even if her n failed, at least she would get the surgery fees for her little brother!
The heir of Futuren Group, wouldnt he have at least 600,000?
Amidst the wild frenzy on the bed, Baron Stuart was deeply attracted to her ordinary body, time and time again losing himself. However, he couldnt understand why the girl who had just been struggling became submissive after hearing his name. Sure enough, she wanted to confirm his identity first!
Emily felt somewhat ufortable for the first time, tears sliding down her eyes. As long as her little brother could wake up, what was selling her own body worth!
Baron Stuart identally saw her teary eyes. He didnt understand why she was crying now. Wasnt she the one who schemed against him? Did she feel wronged now?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
.
The next day
At 8 AM, Emily woke up with an exhausted body, the soreness making her frown.
She couldnt help but wonder if all men were so crazy in that aspect, as the memory ofst nights madness lingered in her mind it almost killed her!
Opening her eyes, the man beside her had long left. Emily sat on the bed, looking at the luxurious room, and her eyes fell on a neatly folded set of clothes on the bedside table.
She picked up the clothes suspiciously and looked at them. They were summer womens clothes, and upon checking the size, they were the smallestabout the same size as hers. Were they for her?
Without thinking too much, Emily took the clothes and headed to the bathroom. When she came out dressed, her cell phone in the small backpack rang.
Emily felt anxious, suddenly realizing it was almost 8:30 AM.
Damn, she was going to bete for work!
She quickly grabbed her cell phone from her bag and nced at the caller ID, then paused.
It was Dr. Fraser
Hello?
Lady Carter, given your brothers current condition, I suggest we perform the surgery immediately. You dont want him lying in bed forever, do you? Dr. Frasers voice came through the phone.
Dr. Fraser, umcan you please perform the surgery on my brother first, and I promise Ill make up the surgery fees as soon as possible. Emilys tone was pleading. She couldnt bear to lose her brother, as he was the only family she had left.
Dr. Fraser hesitated, Lady Carter, Im only working for someone else, Im afraid I cant help you with this. If you really cant get the surgery fees, why dont you negotiate with our Director?
Dr. Fraser knew Emily well and was aware that she was someone who kept her promises. However, there was nothing he could do about this matter.
How could she bring herself to negotiate with the Director? She already owed the hospital a lot for her brothers stay. But if they didnt perform the surgery now, the longer they waited, the less likely her brother would ever wake up.
Chapter 9 - 9: 9 Bargaining!
Chapter 9 - 9: 9 Bargaining!
Trantor:549690339
No, it wont do; she must make sure her little brothers surgery goes smoothly!
Dr. Fraser, Ill be at the hospital soon. Please wait for me; Ill bring all the costs! Emily Walker said urgently before hanging up the phone.
Grabbing her bag, Emily took a deep breath and left the room to head to the living room.
As expected, the man fromst nights madness was sitting on the living room sofa.
Upon seeing Baron Stuart, Emily immediately thought aboutst night, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment.
Feeling someonee out, Baron Stuart looked up at Emily, then lowered his gaze and continued reading the newspaper in his hand without saying a word.
Emily took a deep breath, determined to ask for the surgery fees for her little brother from this world-renowned man!
Young Lord For a moment, Emily didnt know how to address the man in front of her, knowing only that people in the outside world seemed to call him this.
Hearing her voice, Baron Stuart looked up, his deep pupils staring at her as the scene fromst night shed swiftly through his mind, causing him to pause, but only for a moment; very soon, his expression showed no trace of any thought.
Baron Stuart remained silent, waiting for her to speak.
Perhaps this matter might be somewhat demeaning, but for her little brother, she had to ask!
Young Lord, youve seen what you wanted to see, and you slept with me too, so shouldnt you
Before Emily could finish speaking, Baron Stuart raised his hand, and a man walked over, handing her a check.
Emily hesitated, epting the check and saw that it was for 500,000.
Maybe its true that for other women being sponsored, they only receive a few tens of thousands a month. After all, she had only apanied him for one night, so 500,000 was already a hefty sum.
However, just the surgery fees for her little brother would amount to 600,000, let alone the future hospitalization fees and medical expenses. Adding all the costs, even though it wouldnt reach a million, at least six or seven hundred thousand would suffice.
Young Lord,st night was my first, first night Emilys words were somewhat unnatural, her eyelids lowered shyly. Saying this, she wondered if the Young Lord would be willing to give a little more.
Baron Stuart looked up, and his eyes narrowed, wondering if the woman was implying that the money was not enough?N?v(el)B\\jnn
yton Howard.
Young Master. The man standing next to Emily slightly nodded and looked towards Baron Stuart.
Baron Stuart thought for a moment before asking, If I were to find a woman at the Night Club, how much would it cost for one night?
Hearing this, yton paused before answering, ording to the Young Master, it should be a few thousand, I guess. He wasnt very sure, but the general number should be in the thousands, and even then, only a few would be able tomand this price for one night.
Hearing this, Baron Stuart looked towards Emily, his face expressionless and cold, as if his gaze was telling her: I already gave you many times more than that.
Meeting his gaze, Emily was momentarily taken aback. Was heparing her to a woman from a night club?
Thinking about this, Emily felt a re of anger, suppressing her fury and saying, Young Lord! Ist night was my first, first time If you went to a night club to find ady, I doubt youd find someone as pure as me!
In her final sentence, Emilys tone was resolute, determined to acquire the money for her brothers recovery!
Thats why I gave you 500,000 for one night, not 5,000. The casual tone of the Young Lord made it sound like a matter of course.
But you had me many timesst night! Emilypletely let herself go, thinking if 50,000 a night was a bit too much, they could calcte by the number of times, 20,000 per time!

Trantor:549690339
Emily could not remember exactly how many times it happenedst night. All she knew was that this man did not let her rest until the crack of dawn.
Upon hearing this, Baron Stuart narrowed his eyes. His tone was so neutral, it was hard to gauge his emotion. He asked, Oh? How do you n on calcting it?
Last night, he seemed to be deeply attracted by the woman in front of him, unwilling to let her go.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
No, it was her body that deeply attracted him. Although she had an average figure, he was somehow bewitched, bing obsessed with her body.
After a pause, Emily said with a firm tone, One One hundred thousand each time.
Since she had already sold herself, what was there to fear? The only important thing was money. Dignity meant nothing anymore!
You are indeed valuable. Baron Stuart sneered. All women seemingly having a price. Perhaps, to them, dignity and pride were as meaningless as thin air.
yton Howard.
At Baron Stuarts request, yton Howard pulled out a check and a pen.
Baron Stuart extended his slender hand to ept the Montnc pen from yton Howard. With a flurry of movement, Emily quickly received another check.
epting the check, Emily counted the zeros on it, a full one million!
Is it enough now? Baron Stuart looked at the surprised woman in front of him, his gaze cold. He stood from the sofa, turned, and left the presidential suite, followed closely by yton Howard.
.
At noon, Emily rushed to her job at the milk tea shop to request time off. Then, she rushed to the hospital where her little brother, Wace Carter, was being treated. She paid off all the bills, then had a brief talk with the doctor.
Dr. Fraser said that now that the surgery fees were avable, the operation could be performed smoothly tomorrow. As long as the surgery was sessful, there was a chance for her little brother to wake up!
During the long wait, Emily anxiously waited outside the operating room, asionally ncing at the indicator light outside. Finally, after three hours, she saw the green lighte on!
Anxious, Emily quickly approached the operating room, asking the moment the doors opened, How is my little brother?
The surgery went very well. I think there is a high chance your little brother will wake up, dont worry. Dr. Fraser let out a long sigh, reassuring Emily.
Emily hadnt had a day as happy as today in the over two months since her father passed away!
She bit on her tightly sped fingers, as if to confirm whether this was a dream or reality. The very moment she felt pain from her fingers, she knew everything was real, her little brothers surgery was sessful. She wouldnt have to live in this world alone anymore!
Wace She was moved to tears at the realization, and hurried into the hospital room.
In the bed, Wace Carter still had his eyes closed. But the doctor had told her that there was a high chance for her little brother to wake up, so she strongly believed that he wouldnt leave her alone, he would wake up.
With the 1.5 million given by Young Lord, after all costs and surgery fees, Emily was left with half of the money. So she wasnt worried about her brothers future medical expenses anymore.
In the evening, Emily hired a nurse to care for Wace Carter so that she could get updates on his condition firsthand and she could also find another job without worry.
However, seeking a job in such a bustling city was not easy at all.
The next morning, Emily came to the milk tea shop early as usual and fetched arge bunch of flyers. She stood on the pedestrian street, distributing the flyers to the passing crowd.

Trantor:549690339
Hello, Coco Milk Tea! Emily Walker greeted each passerby and handed out a flyer from her hand, her smile bright and friendly.
After promoting on the Pedestrian Street for half an hour, Emily and her colleagues went to Pearl Square and then to the bustling crossroads, handing out flyers to pedestrians.
Hello, Coco Milk Tea, wee! Despite the scorching sun in the summer, Emily still had a great mood and a bright smile on her face.
The red light came on, and the busy metropolis would be traffic-jammed, which was the worst thing for the working ss!
A ck Bentley stopped at the rightne, Baron Stuart slightly displeased by the long queue ahead, he turned his gaze to the sidewalk on the right.
He seemed to see a familiar figure, and when Emily turned her whole body, Baron Stuarts deep pupils squinted slightly.
yton Howard. Baron Stuart spoke to yton Howard in front of him, but his eyes never left the figure on the sidewalk outside the car window.
Yes, Young Master.
I want that. Baron Stuart pointed at the flyer in Emilys hand.
yton Howard looked in the direction he was pointing and only then noticed that the woman not far away looked somewhat familiar.
Yes. yton Howard answered, opened the car door, and walked towards Emily.
Hello, Coco Milk Tea, wee! Emily didnt pay attention to the person in front of her, and like before, handed yton the flyer and then turned around to continue promoting.
yton Howard took the flyer, returned to the car, and handed it to Baron Stuart, Young Master, heres the stuff you wanted.
Baron Stuart took the flyer, nced at it, and then looked up at Emily in the distance.
Hello, Coco Milk Tea, wee As Emily was promoting the flyer, her voice suddenly stopped, and the smile on her face disappeared abruptly.
Yo, isnt this our youngdy Emily? Why is she showing up on the street doing such a thing? Two women were standing in front of her, it was Emilys Second Mother and Little Sister!
The one who spoke was Iris Carter, her little sister who had no blood rtionship with Emily!
Seeing the mother and daughter standing in front of her, Emily clenched her fists secretly, hatred rushed to her head, and she wanted to rush up and tear their faces!
But she couldnt fight them now, one day, she would take back everything that belonged to the Carter family!
Suppressing the pain and hatred in her heart, Emily looked coldly at the mother and daughter in front of her, then turned around and continued to hand out flyers.
Her smile remained, Hello, Coco Milk Tea, ween/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Thud! Emily stumbled, therge stack of flyers in her hand fell to the ground, she turned around, ring at Iris Carter who deliberately bumped into her, furious, What do you guys want? Isnt one Carter Family enough?!
From when she entered the Carter Family with Elia Parker, she had always treated her as a real sister, even as she constantlypeted with her. But after their father died, the mother and daughter duo became more ruthless in seizing everything that belonged to the Carter Family!
Emily, dont be angry, you know Leanne Johnson, shes always careless in her actions. Dont take offense if she bumped into you. Elia Parkerughed insincerely at Emily, her words seemed like an apology, but her tone carried a hint of sarcasm!
Chapter 12 - 12: 12: A Resounding Slap in the Face
Chapter 12 - 12: 12: A Resounding p in the Face
Trantor:549690339
Emily Walker? Ha, she sounded so affectionate. Initially, she must have been putting on a show to deceive my father. Who would have thought that all this was just a y staged by Elia Parker topete for the Carter familys fortune!
Ignoring mother and daughter, Emily tried to suppress her anger and squat down to pick up the scattered flyers on the ground one by one.
As she was picking up the flyers, Iris Carter smirked sinisterly, walked past casually, and said, Mother, lets go, or well bete!
Having said that, Iris walked past Emily.
Ah C it hurts - As Emily reached out to pick up another flyer, a sharp pain prated the back of her hand, causing her unbearable pain and a loud cry!
The intense pain made Emily instinctively jerk her hand away. Following that, Iris screamed and fell awkwardly to the ground in an instant.
The other colleague handing out flyers with Emily heard the screams and ran over, worryingly helping Emily up from the ground, Emily, are you okay?
Looking at Emilys tender fingers turning red and the skin seemingly broken by the pressure from high heels, Gabrie Teddy was very worried.
Leanne! Seeing her daughter fall, Elia Parker hurriedly ran over, helped Iris up, and asked with concern, Leanne, are you okay?
Iris, looking embarrassed, got up from the ground, raised her head angrily staring at Emily who had just stood up, You dare to push me?
Fingers being stepped on, and she still yed the victim? Emily was angry and said, If you hadnt stepped on me, how could I have pushed you?
She just reacted instinctively by pulling her hand away. Iris deserved this fall!
Iris was speechless, and suddenly rushed over to Emily, raised her arm, and a fierce and urate p was heard,nding on Emilys left cheek with a snap!
With her cheeks burning and throbbing, Emily widened her eyes, never expecting that this mother and daughter would actually attack her in broad daylight.
She covered the pped cheek, from the time her father passed away, she had been holding her breath and bearing with it all. Nowadays, she truly had enough of this mother and daughters behavior!
Who are you? How can you hit someone!? Seeing Emily getting hit, Gabrie also felt indignant and questioned the mother and daughter.
Its none of your business! Iris snarled. Perhaps due to differences in temperament and appearance, most people could tell that the mother and daughter were not ordinary people. Gabrie was angry but didnt know what to say, so she could only grit her teeth and endure it.
Seeing Emily received a p from her daughter, Elia Parkerughed triumphantly, holding Iris and said, Leanne, lets go. Uncle Morgan is waiting for us.
Iris raised her eyes, her mouth curled up in a cold smile, then turned around and left with Elia together.
Watching the backs of the mother and daughter leaving, Emily clenched her hands beside her and vowed that one day she would repay the humiliation they had brought her many times over.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Young Master, do you want me to -
No need, start the car.
Seeing that their young master had been looking at the not-far-away scene, yton Howard spoke up but was interrupted by Baron Stuart.
Baron Stuart shifted his line of sight, and the ck Bentley drove away from the Flourishing Crossroads slowly.

Trantor:549690339
Half an hourter, the car arrived at Duke StationThrone, an upscale club.
With little effort, Baron Stuart easily negotiated an investment contract worth billions.
By the time he returned to Futuren Hotel, it was 5:30 PM. After taking a bath, he changed into a well-crafted, handmade suit that perfectly entuated his noble demeanor.
There was a banquet hosted by the Walker Group that night. He initially didnt n on attending, but somehow the Old Master caught wind of this and restricted his freedom. To regain his freedom, he had to attend tonights banquet!
For the first time in 28 years, his grandfather was serious with him. If he wanted to resolve his doubts, it seemed he had no choice but to attend that wine party tonight.
Dressed and ready, Baron Stuart walked to the bedside. A ck and gold-edged watch was ced on the bedside table, matching his noble and cold demeanor, shining brightly.
Wearing the watch, he nced at therge bed that still carried remnants of his tryst. Instantly, a blushing, panting face shed through his mind, and the madness of that night seemed to always unintentionally appear in his thoughts.
As he prepared to shake off the ordinary face in his mind and turn to leave, he noticed a ck thread peeking out from under the pillow.
Baron Stuart furrowed his brow; he never left anything under his pillow.
What could it be?
Approaching the bedside, he picked up the ck thread and discovered a delicate little stone attached to it.
It wasnt a stone, it seemed more like a rare shell stone.
What was this, and how did it end up on his bed?
Baron Stuart touched the small stone with puzzled brows. At first nce, it looked like a chicken or a bird?
Such a uniquely shaped stone was rare and didnt appear to be man-made. It resembled a naturally formed object. Whose could it be?
This bed had only been used by him who else could have left it?
Others?
Once again, Emily Walkers delicate face shed through Baron Stuarts mind. Could this object belong to that woman?N?v(el)B\\jnn
Thinking of her charmingly bashful face, Baron Stuart tensed up and threw the shell stone into the bedside drawer, before striding out of the room.
However, as soon as he stepped out of the room, he hesitated, not quite understanding his behavior today.
In the past, anything belonging to others was considered trash. His room was an exception; you couldnt find anything other than his things inside.
And yet, at this moment, he had actually thrown that pendant into a drawer?
He must be going crazy, he thought to himself.
Though he inwardly mocked himself, Baron Stuart didnt go back to throw away the pendant and instead strode out of his designated room, arriving at the wine party hall on the 12th floor.
Just as the elevator reached Building 12 and he stepped out, his cell phone rang.
Brother! Where are you now? A sweet, yful voice came through the phone, full of childlike innocence.
Just left the elevator, Im about to go in. Baron Stuart thought that the Old Master had grown impatient and thus had Be call to urge him.
But apparently, that was not the case.
Chapter 14 - 14: 14: Bella Stuart Hit Someone
Chapter 14 - 14: 14: Be Stuart Hit Someone
Trantor:549690339
Brother! Dont go in yet! Upon hearing that he was going to enter the conference hall, Be Stuart tried to stop him anxiously.
Baron Stuart raised his eyebrows in confusion, his sexy thin lips slightly opened, and uttered a few words, Whats wrong?
I my car broke down, and I didnt bring my wallet so Bes voice got quieter, as if sensing a storm was about to arrive!
Sure enough, before her voice even fell, she heard Baron Stuart erupt like a volcano, Be Stuart! You drove alone again without telling anyone?
On the phone, Be pouted, wronged, and said with a crying tone, I I just wanted to drive by myself
Since learning to drive, Bes greatest wish was to have her own car and then go wherever she wanted to go. However, she was smart in every other aspect but clumsy at driving. No matter how hard Baron Stuart and the Stuart familys driver taught her, idents would always happen within five minutes of her driving alone!
Soter, the Stuart Family forbade Be from driving. She could touch cars, ride in cars, and look at cars, but she was never allowed to drive them.
Because within one year, she had driven 136 times, injured 135 people, and one time she even hit a utility pole!
So ever since then, the Stuart family had forbidden her from driving, and she would always sneak out to drive without their knowledge anyway!
And then what? Baron Stuart suppressed his anger and waited for her to confess voluntarily.
The car broke down? Would the Stuart familys cars ever break down?N?v(el)B\\jnn
Be pursed her lower lip; she knew she could never hide anything from her brother!
Then then I hit someone Bes tone didnt reveal any tension, as if hitting someone was just a daily routine for her.
But then she suddenly got nervous, not because she had hit someone, but rather because she was afraid that her brother would tell her mother and grandpa C then she would be finished!
But, I just knocked her down, just a tiny bit of external injuries, and I also sent her to the hospital, but now uh Be spoke while gesturing that tiny bit and then nced behind her.
She didnt bring her wallet, had injured someone, and she couldnt ask the victim to give her money to go to the hotel, could she?
But she didnt dare tell her mother and grandpa, so she had no choice but to call her beloved brother!
Brother, I I have no money to pay for the medical fees
Youll have to solve it yourself. Baron Stuart decisively hung up the phone.
Hello? Brother? Brother!? Did he really hang up? Her beloved brother actually left her to fend for herself? How could that be!?
Be put down her cell phone and looked at it. Indeed, the phone had been disconnected! She was so angry that she stomped her foot and screamed, Ahh!!!
Turning around, Be angrily red at the freshly bandaged victim as if the reason she couldnt go to the banquet was all because of this victim who she had knocked down!
Emily Walker lowered her head and looked at her arm wrapped in gauze, got up, and left the hospital room. As she raised her head, she met a pair of furious eyes!
She didnt know if it was her illusion, but she vaguely felt that these eyes seemed to be familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere before.
However, this girls stunning appearance, she swore, she had never seen before.

Trantor:549690339
Such a beautiful face would definitely be unforgettable.
Its all your fault, now I cant go to the banquet! Be Stuart shouted angrily, the more she looked at Emily Walker, the angrier she got!
What she was most afraid of was her brother telling her mother and grandfather about her secretly driving and hitting someone tonight. So the more she thought, the angrier she got. In the end, it was all the fault of this woman who couldnt walk properly!
Emily was confused by her inexplicable tone and looked puzzled. It was her who knocked her down, so why was she ming her now?
Miss, it seems like you were the one who hit me with your car, right? So why me me now for ruining your ns? Emily was also unhappy as someone inexplicably used her.
If you hadnt been walking around carelessly, how could I have possibly knocked you down! Be Stuart said confidently, gritting her teeth and staring at Emily, abination of cuteness and nobility, making her look arrogant and unreasonable.
Huh! Upon hearing that, Emily felt it wasughable, and corrected her, Miss! It seems like you were the one who drove onto the sidewalk and knocked me down, right?
She fully experienced what it meant to be the one who speaks first is in the wrong today.
Frankly speaking, even if someone has bad driving skills, how could they directly drive onto the sidewalk? Emily still couldnt understand it until now.
Her words made Be Stuart even angrier, but knowing these were facts, she had indeed driven onto the sidewalk before hitting her. However, she wasnt willing topromise just like that.
Anyway, I dont care! My family is waiting for me to attend a wine party, and now I cant go because of you! You have topensate me!
Be Stuart, the Stuart familys princess, was spoiled and pampered, with her family virtually indulging her in everything except prohibiting her from driving, which shaped her arrogant and unreasonable character.
Ipensate you? Emily was really at a loss for words. She had seen unreasonable people, but never someone as unreasonable as her, Miss, are you confused? You hit someone and now you want me topensate you?
It was simply a wild fantasy.
Seeing the situation, she could only resign herself to her bad luck. Emily nced at Be Stuart, ignoring her, and walked straight out of the hospital room towards the direction of the hospital entrance.
Fortunately, the injuries on her wrist were just scratches and wouldnt cause any serious harm after a few days of rest.
As for thepensation, it seemed like she didnt even need to mention it.
Watching Emily walk away, Be Stuart stared with wide eyes, stamped her foot in anger, and having been spoiled all her life, she couldnt bear being treated so dismissively, Hey!
Watching Emily walk further away, Be Stuart shouted angrily from behind her.
It was driving her crazy! What kind of day was this, with everything going against her wishes!
Looking at her receding figure, a few secondster, Be Stuart followed her.
At the hospital entrance, Emily gged down a taxi and got in. Just as she was about to close the door, a figure sat down beside her.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Emily looked at Be Stuart sitting beside her with a puzzled expression.
Master, to the Futuren Hotel. Without even looking at Emily beside her, Be Stuart spoke to the taxi driver with a high and mighty tone.
As long as there was business, the driver didnt care about anything else, and drove towards the Futuren Hotel.

Trantor:549690339
Miss, dont you think youre going too far? Emily Walker looked at the young girl who was around the same age as herself, slightly annoyed by her excessive behavior.
However, Be Stuart remained arrogant and turned to face Emily Walker, her exquisite and beautiful face enough to make any man fall for her.
Dont worry, Ill take you to my brother right now andpensate you for all your losses. Looking at Emilys ordinary jeans and T-shirt, Be Stuart showed a disdainful gaze.
Indeed, what kind of person is only fit to wear such clothes!
But you have to pay for the car fare this time! As she finished speaking, Be Stuart cast her gaze out the window, seemingly not enjoying interacting with someone of Emilys status.
In her circle of friends, regardless of being from aristocratic families or well-known persons from the model artist background, someone like Emily Walker would naturally be the first time she has ever interacted with them.
Emily saw the contemptuous attitude in Be Stuarts eyes and naturally understood that this girl looked down upon her.
Nevermind, I didnt n on taking yourpensation in the first ce. Im going to the Futuren Hotel anyway, and I dont mind bringing you along. By saying this, she showed her magnanimity, which in turn helped the pampered Miss Rich. It was killing two birds with one stone, so why not?N?v(el)B\\jnn
As soon as she finished speaking, Be Stuarts entire expression changed, turning her head in surprise and looking at Emily, Futuren Hotel? You?
Be Stuart knew very well what kind of people were admitted to her familys hotel. Amoner like Emily Walker would probably not even be able to enter the hotels grand entrance, right?
Whats wrong? Noticing her astonished tone, Emily was naturally puzzled, not knowing where the problemy. Could it be strange for her to go to the Futuren Hotel?
Heh! Obviously, Be Stuart once again revealed her disdainful gaze, scoffing sarcastically, Miss, are you sure you can even get through the doors of the Futuren Hotel?
Emily looked at her, not understanding the meaning behind her words. Maybe it wasnt too oundish; after all, she was just an ordinary person now, rarely going to such high-end international hotels. But didnt she also go inst time?
Could it be that to enter that hotel, one must have a certain status and position? Then how did her uncle and aunt bring her inst time?
In the midst of their conversation, the taxi had arrived at the Futuren Hotel, and Emily and Be Stuart got out of the car together, looking at the most luxurious and grand international hotel in E City.
Futuren Corporation, a mythical presence, had such a vast scope of operations that even outsiders were unclear about which industries the Stuart family was actually involved in.
There were hotels, real estate, shopping malls, entertainment clubs; essentially, if you could see a well-known brand, there would definitely be one owned by the Futuren Corporation!
In fact, Emily was very familiar with the Futuren Corporation as well because her dream was to enter the real estate sector of the Futuren Group.
She had always studied interior design, and joining the Futuren Group had been her dream since childhood. However, all of this came to an end after her fathers death and her stepmother took away everything from the Carter family.
Having onlypleted her sophomore year, she took a leave of absence to work, giving up on pursuing her lifelong dream.
After getting out of the car together, Be Stuart looked at Emily Walker and didnt intend to enter the Futuren Hotel with her. She wanted to see how someone like Emily would enter the Futuren Hotel.
Of course, Emily didnt know the intricacies involved and simply looked puzzled at Be Stuart. Without thinking much, she proceeded to the entrance of the hotel on her own.

Trantor:549690339
Two security personnel looked at the ordinary-looking Emily Walker and decisively held out their hands to block her way.
Excuse me, Miss, are you a VIP member here? asked one of the security personnel.
Emily nced at the hand blocking her path, then looked up at the two security personnel and shook her head nkly.
Im sorry, Miss, but we only ept VIP guests here. The security personnel were very polite, without any sign of looking down on people.
Emily was puzzled. Only VIP customers were epted? How had she enteredst time? Could it be that her uncle was a VIP here?
Other than that possibility, Emily couldnt think of anything else.
Seeing Emily being stopped, Be Stuart smirked with contempt, walked up to her side, and looked at the two security personnel with her exquisite face.
Young Lady. As soon as the two security personnel saw Be, they bowed and greeted her immediately.
Be raised a triumphant smile and nced at Emily beside her, then turned her head and said, Shes my friend.
After that, she gave Emily a scornful nce and walked away towards the revolving door on her own.
For a moment, Emily stood still, watching Be as she entered the hotel.
They were calling her Young Lady? Could she be Be Stuart?
Seemingly sensing that the person behind her hadnt followed her, Be turned around and looked at Emily, knowing that she was startled by her identity.
Didnt you say youreing here? Dont you want to go in? Normally, Be would have left without thinking, but she looked back to observe Emilys surprised expression!
Upon hearing this, Emily came back to her senses and quickly followed Be through the revolving door.
Once in the Reception Hall, Be didnt bother with Emily anymore and went straight to the elevator to wait.
The reason Emily hade here today was that after leaving the hotelst time, she realized that her mandarin duck stone had gone missing. In a rush to go to the hospital, she couldnt find it. That item was too precious for her, and she had to find it.
Emilys father had told her that the mandarin duck stone was found by her parents when they were walking on the beach. Her mother loved it because of its shape, and at that time, Emily had just been born a month ago with the character ԧ in her name, so her mother hung the mandarin duck stone around her neck.
Now that her parents were gone, the only thing left for her was that mandarin duck stone pendant.
To get to the 68th floor, Emily naturally had to take the elevator with Be.
Both of them entered the elevator together, Be pressed the 12th floor and Emily naturally pressed the 68th floor.
Be didnt intend to see which floor Emily was going to, but she was curious, and when she nced at the glowing red 68-digit key, she immediately widened her eyes!
The 68th floor is the Top Floor of the Futuren Hotel, where no one else stayed except Baron Stuart. What was this woman there for?
Be looked at Emily with her big, copper-bell-like eyes, and said in astonishment, You youre going to the 68th floor?
Seeing her extremely surprised expression, Emily was puzzled, Whats wrong?
This girl was really strange, with strange behavior, weird speech, and now even her expressions were bizarre. What was the big deal about her going to the 68th floor? Why did Bes expression seem as if there was a monster on the 68th floor?N?v(el)B\\jnn

Be Stuart ceased to talk, but lifted her eyes to scan Emily Walker from top to bottom, the more she thought about it, the more it seemed unlikely. How could such an ordinary and unimpressive girl know her brother?
Whats your name? Be Stuart suddenly put on a serious face, looking at Emily Walker in a somewhat arrogant tone.
She would deny to the death that this girl knew her brother, but if she did not, why did she go to the 68th floor?
Her brother is perfect, he is the best this world has to offer, how could he know such an ugly woman? She wont ept it!
Emily Walker. Emily Walker, albeit confused as to why Young Miss Stuart was suddenly asking for her name, responded out of politeness.
Understood! At that moment, the elevator had already reached the 12th floor. Be Stuart red at Emily Walker and stepped out of the elevator, heading towards the conference hall.
She was determined to ask her brother whether he knew Emily Walker or not!
The elevator reached the 68th floor again. Emily Walker, relying on her memory from thest time, fumbled her way to Baron Stuarts room. However, unlike the previous time, the entrance was deserted, there were no bodyguards guarding the door.
Knock, Knock!
Emily Walker tried knocking but after several attempts, there was no response from inside. It seemed like she had made a fruitless trip that day.
Meanwhile, inside the wine party hall.
As soon as Be Stuart entered the grand hall, she looked around in search of Baron Stuarts figure. She finally found him surrounded by a group of men and women!
She rushed into the crowd like the wind, grabbed Baron Stuarts arm, and asked loudly, Brother! Do you have a girlfriend!?
Its not that she didnt want her brother to have a girlfriend. Its just that, in her fantasy, her sister-inw has to be an angelic girl with extraordinary appearance and figure to match her brother!
Baron Stuart was discussing business matters with a bunch of business tycoons. But Be Stuart suddenly appeared before his eyes, bringing with her such a surprising question which left him stunned for a while.
What Be Stuart said was a normal question, but for the other people, it was anything but normal!
Everyone knew that Baron Stuart, the heir of the Futuren Group, had never dated any woman in his 28 years. He was never seen linked to any scandals in magazines or news channels. This made many outside people guess the reasons.
With Young Miss Stuart bringing up that question, a few men around also showed their curiosity. Even the socialite daughters not far from them couldnt help looking over, wanting to get to the bottom of the matter.
Who didnt know about Futuren Corporation? Who didnt know the name Baron Stuart? Countless corporations wanted to curry favor with him and countless socialite daughters wanted to monopolize Baron Stuart, a man for whom worldwide females lusted but held back!
What? For a moment, Baron Stuart couldnt regain hisposure.
Do, do you know a girl named Emily Walker!? Be Stuart red at Baron Stuart, looking extremely unhappy, as if her boyfriend had cheated on her!
Baron Stuart knit his eyebrows, he had no impression of this name, I dont know her, why?n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Be Stuart blinked in surprise, didnt know? Could she have been mistaken?
Heheits nothing, its nothing. If that was the case, she didnt need to worry.
Be Stuart giggled, affectionately grabbing Baron Stuarts arm, then looking at the crowd.

Although Baron Stuart was a little unclear about her question, he ultimately did not ponder on it too much, instead shifting his gaze to some business tycoons.
Baron Stuart! As the siblings greeted the attendees at the conference cordially, a familiar voice came from not far away.
Especially when Be Stuart heard this voice, her face was instantly filled with joy, a brilliant and vivacious smile sparkled in her yful eyes.
She turned around, looked towards the source of the sound, and enthusiastically waved to him, Leonardo Bryson!
Upon hearing the voice, Baron Stuarts gaze also looked in Leonardo Brysons direction. Before he could say anything, the little hand that was holding his arm quickly loosened.
Watching his little sister running towards Leonardo Bryson, Baron Stuart waited calmly.
You are bing more and more rude. When you were a child, you used to call me big brother Yates often. Why is it that as you grow up, you start to call me by my actual name instead? Leonardo Bryson, looking at the handsome girl in front of him, gently pinched her straight, small nose. His affectionate gaze said it all.
In response, Be Stuart pouted discontentedly, Why do you care? Ill call you whatever I want. Cant I?
Alright, whatever you say goes! Leonardo Bryson, after patting her head, walked towards Baron Stuart with her in tow.
Leonardo Bryson, the CEO of the Bryson Group, had established his own kingdom in the domestic market through his own abilities. It was widely known that Bryson used to have a different career before entering the business circle. In just a few years, he has established his own business empire. He has been Baron Stuarts friend since childhood, his only confidant, a brother in adversity who can risk his life for him!
Youre here too. It looks like todays banquet is quite special. After taking a sip of red wine in his ss, Baron Stuart then looked towards his mother and old master Stuart, who were not far away.
The couple, they wereughing and talking with the chairman of the Walker Group. They seem to be enjoying each otherspany.
Looking at this scene, Baron Stuart seemed to have guessed the theme of todays banquet.
Draining his ss of red wine, a look of displeasure crossed Baron Stuarts face, and he was about to leave the conference room.
Just as he turned around, he identally bumped into a waiter who was walking past, causing the wine to ssh all over and stain his silver-grey suit.
Damn it! Baron Stuart cursed under his breath, his mood deteriorating further and his eyes coldly weighing the waiter.
Recognizing the severity of his mistake, the waiter began to apologise repeatedly, Im sorry, Mr. Stuart!
Baron Stuart with a cold face, even if his anger inside was about to ignite,pared to this, he would rather leave this damn ce as soon as possible.
Without the protagonist, he was curious to see what the old master would do next.
With a sharp gaze, Baron Stuart swept over the waiter in front of him and didnt utter a word. He left everyone behind and headed in the direction of the conference hall exit.
However, he had only taken a few steps when a powerful andpelling voice rang out.
Baron Stuart, where are you going!? Old Master Stuart, who had noticed that Baron Stuart was about to leave, called out sternly.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
At the sound of the voice, Baron Stuart had to pause. His attractive eyes slightly closed, revealing a hint of helplessness.
He turned around, pointing to his soiled suit, and said in his usual calm tone, I just want to go upstairs to change my clothes.

I have something to announceter, so be quick. Old Master Stuart was already in his eighties, but his innate authority showed no decline, especially when dealing with Baron Stuart, he was always strict.
However, this was understandable. A man who was about to inherit the Futuren Kingdom had to be disciplined and groomed personally since childhood, leaving no room for rxation.
Todays Baron Stuart was the greatest achievement of Zachary Stuarts life. Rather than the Futuren Group, he took more pride in this beloved grandson.
Baron Stuarts business acumen hadpletely inherited his grandfathers sess, or even surpassed it. How could he not be proud of having such a grandson?
As a result, since Baron Stuart took over the Futuren, Old Master Stuart no longer strictly supervised him. He knew that by now, Baron Stuart was fully capable of handling the Futuren Kingdom.
Hmm. ncing at his grandfather, Baron Stuart knew that he might not be able to escape tonight.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
But there was one thing he didnt want to obey: his marriage.
From childhood to adulthood, his identity was not ordinary, and he had never owned the thingsmon people had.
By the age of 20, he had never had a true friend.
In the eyes of the outside world, he never interacted with the opposite sex. In reality, it was not that he didnt want to, but he didnt dare. He had tasted the bittersweet feeling of wanting love but not daring to during his university years.
Until he was 28 years old, he never fell for any other girl again,pletely sealing away his once-passionate heart in the corner of his iceberg.
However, this did not mean that Baron Stuart could ept just any woman arranged for him by his grandfather!
Baron Stuart grunted and turned to leave the Wine Party Hall. He knew that as soon as he left the hall, his grandfather would send someone to follow him!
As expected, within three seconds of Baron Stuarts departure, Old Master Stuart signaled to the two bodyguards at the door who then trailed behind him, leaving the conference hall.
Since Baron Stuart was taking a private elevator, the two bodyguards had to take a normal elevator.
At the room entrance, Emily Walker confirmed that there was no one inside and had no choice but to leave.
As she waited for the elevator, her cell phone rang in her backpack.
ncing at the caller ID, Emily looked slightly disheartened.
She hadnt been home for two days straight since that day. Her uncle and aunt must be going crazy by now.
Of course, they were not worried about her safety, but they wanted to know if she had achieved what they wanted.
To conveniently answer the call, Emily walked quietly to the staircase entrance, Aunt.
Emily, I heard that Waces surgery went well. Did you talk to Young Master Stuart about our familys situation?
Because Emily hadnte home for several days, Emma Hudson was both worried and concerned, unsure if Emily had been staying by the Crown Princes side at Futuren Corporation or deliberately avoiding her and not returning home.
With no other option, Emma Hudson sent someone to inquire and learned that Emily had been staying in the hospital overnight. She also unintentionally heard that Waces surgery had been sessful, and even the previous medical debts had beenpletely paid off.
Emma Hudson thought that the Crown Prince must be very satisfied with Emily, which was why he helped her with the hospital matters.

Thinking about this, Emma Hudson couldnt wait to dial Emily Walkers cell phone number!
Hearing Aunt call her so affectionately by her nickname, Emily didnt feel any warmth from family, but rather a sense of strangeness.
Thats because since she moved in with her Uncle and Aunt, her Aunt had never given her a kind face.
Aunt, how can you have the nerve? Thinking of her scheming Uncle and Aunt, Emily felt more heartache than hatred. She was only 20 years old and Henry Adams niece, but she never thought that the Uncle who had been rtively nice to her would send her to a stranger for his own benefit, and her bond with her family disappeared.
What what did I do? Emma, sensing Emilys irritated tone, paused for a moment.
You didnt give birth to me, nor did you raise me, so on what basis are you giving me away to someone else!? Even though she moved into the Adams family after the downfall of her own, her Aunt collected her rent and living expenses monthly, so she didnt owe the Adams family anything!
You Emma obviously hesitated when Emily yelled at her, but soon regained herposure and indignantly said, True, I didnt give birth to you or raise you, but dont forget, it was only because I drugged you and sent you to Eldest Young Master Stuarts bed that your little brother was able to have his surgery. In the end, you should be thanking me! You ungrateful girl!
Emma spoke harshly, venting her anger!
Thank her? Emily felt likeughing at this. She sacrificed Emily to another man for her own family business and then expected her to thank her? If one day Emily married into the Stuart family and became the Young Mistress, would she have to support her Aunt?
Yes, my brothers surgery went smoothly, and indeed, its all thanks to you, Aunt, for sending me to Eldest Young Master Stuarts bed, and not your own daughter. Otherwise, perhaps Young Master Stuart would be helping not with my brothers surgery fees, but with your Adams familys business.
What do you mean by this? Emma seemed to sense something was amiss.
What do I mean? Emily chuckled coldly, Ha, do you really think I would help someone who destroyed my life with their own hands?
Having said this, Emily hung up the call without waiting for any reaction from Emma.
Maybe she didnt want the tears in her eyes to fall, so Emily forced herself to look up, allowing the tears to recede.
At this moment, she had already forgotten to leave, and instead dragged her heavy footsteps towards the staircase.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Pushing open a ss door, the night sky outside was filled with countless stars. Although it was summer, luckily there was a cool breeze in the night, slightly relieving Emilys heavy heart.
Standing at the edge of the rooftop, Emily discovered for the first time that the night view of E City was so beautiful.
If she could, she longed to shake off her exhaustion and troubles in such a lovely cool night and enjoy the citys breathtaking scenery without the entanglements of worldly affairs, watching the world pass by, unconcerned.
Did you know that youre intruding on someones privacy?
A deep and sexy voice suddenly chimed, sounding especially pleasant in this tranquil night.
Emily,pletely immersed in her thoughts, was startled by the sudden sound, her body trembling. Instinctively turning her head, a pair of jet ck eyes shone brightly in the night but couldnt hide her terror caused by the surprise.
Who are you? Although Emily wasnt a very timid person, meeting a strange man here still made her somewhat apprehensive.

But as soon as the words left her mouth, she seemed to recognize the voice as being very familiar.
No, it was not just familiar, it was extremely familiar, because she had only heard this heavenly-like voice once, it was that night.
The only master here. Baron Stuarts deep and sexy voice apanied his slow step out onto the rooftop, his extraordinarily handsome face appeared under the dim moonlight, exuding an awe-inspiring noble aura.
It was only after she clearly saw this noble man standing before her that Emily Walker felt surprised, however, on a second thought, it did not seem strange that he would appear here.
After all, this was the rooftop of the Futuren Hotel, and he, he was the leader of this hotel.
Whats the matter? Are the 1.5 million flowers finished? The only reason he could think of for her to appear here was that she hade to find him.
Other than endless entanglement to him and money as the two reasons, Baron Stuart couldnt think of any other reason why women look for him.
Clearly, his words made Emily Walker stunned, somewhat confused.
Soon, it seemed that she could hear the slight mockery in his words.
Of course not, I just came here today to retrieve my stuff. Emily Walker naturally maintains her dignity in face of his mockery, because there was no need for her to stoop low for this man.
Perhaps in themercial kingdom, he is the supreme ruler, but before her, Emily Walker ah, he is also a king, but she is not his ve!
Upon hearing this, Baron Stuart slightly frowned, only feeling that it was a womans excuse to pester him.
Really, do you have something left with me? It felt like these kind of conversations happened many times, and every time the womans answer to him was: um, my heart is with you.
Thinking about this, Baron Stuart sneered even more.
Um, Emily Walker nodded, although its not very valuable, its the only thing my parents left for me and its very precious to me.
She was also not sure whether the item was lost here or not, but as long as there was a chance of finding it, she had to give it a try.
Really? What is it. Baron Stuart walked to the edge of the rooftop railing, looking down at the night view of E City, wondering what this precious item she was talking about was.
Its a mandarin duck stone, ck and grey. Emily Walker looked at him with a look of expectation and eagerness. Baron Stuart sounded as if he knew she had left something with him.
Mandarin duck stone? Although Baron Stuart was unfamiliar with this name, he immediately thought of the mandarin duck-shaped shell stone in his mind. Presumably, thats the thing she wanted to retrieve.
Have you seen it? Emily Walker looked at him expectantly, That was the day when I found out that it was missing when I left here. Originally, I wanted toC
Nothing!
Without waiting for Emily Walker to finish speaking, Baron Stuart decisively opened his mouth, with a tone of dominance and coldness.
However, as soon as the words left his mouth, Baron Stuart found himself somewhat out of character. He didnt understand why he would lie about not seeing the mandarin duck stone when he clearly had.
Even more, he had a desire to im the mandarin duck stone as his own. As the Crown Prince of the Futuren Group, the only heir, worth billions, he is not short of such stones, but he didnt understand why he wanted to im this broken stone as his own.
Really nothing? Emily Walker was somewhat disappointed. If he didnt have it, then she really could not find the mandarin duck stone which her mother left for her..N?v(el)B\\jnn

Trantor: 549690339n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
But I was indeed here that day-
If I say it wasnt, then it wasnt Baron Stuarts least favorite thing was being questioned, but just as he was about to interrupt her distrust again, his sensitive ears seemed to hear hurried footsteps from the staircase.
His whole body tensed, and he instinctively pulled Emily Walkers wrist, running to a corner!
Hissok
Dont make a sound! Baron Stuart growled softly, covering Emily Walkers mouth with his other hand, not allowing her to make any noise.
As the two hid in the corner, Baron Stuart didnt notice his hand gripping Emilys injured wrist, perhaps he was too tense, and his grip on her hand gradually tightened. Under the dim moonlight, he didnt notice the cold sweat dripping from the child in his arms.
Previously, he hade to the rooftop to avoid his grandpas surveince, but he didnt expect his grandpas men to find him so quickly.
His roar quickly silenced Emily, and as she looked up, she saw two shadows not far away, their searching eyes seemed to be looking for someone.
Feeling the tense man standing beside her, Emily quickly realized that the two people must be looking for him.
However, the grip on her wrist tightened more and more, and she was in great pain but didnt dare to make a sound for fear of attracting unnecessary trouble.
Suppressing the pain, she could silence herself, but her tears could not be controlled and flowed out like broken beads.
Baron Stuart focused on the two figures and didnt notice the girl in his arms until the two men left, and his heart finally rxed.
As he rxed, he felt a cool liquid slowly flowing between his fingers, which were covering her face.
He instinctively released her face, and then looked down at Emily, only to find her in tears
Baron Stuart was stunned, not understanding what was wrong with her, and not realizing that his other hand had been gripping her hand tightly.
It hurts it hurts so much Emily frowned, and the beads of sweat on her forehead kept overflowing due to the pain.
Seeing her extremely painful expression, Baron Stuart was puzzled, furrowed his brows and asked subconsciously, Whats wrong with you?
Hand my hand hurts so much Emily didnt dare to struggle because the back of her hand was held tightly by him. The more she struggled, the deeper the pain would be.
Hand? Baron Stuart snapped back to reality, looking at Emilys hand, only to realize that although she was wearing short sleeves, there was ayer of soft material on her wrist where he held her.
It was gauze.
In the dim moonlight, Baron Stuart immediately saw the gauze tied around Emilys wrist. Knowing that she was in great pain, he instinctively let go of her hand. What caught his eye was the blood-stained gauze and the fresh red blood stains on his own hand.
Baron Stuart looked astonished, nced at her wrist, and then looked up at her sweaty face.
As her wrist was released, Emilys pain was halved, but she still frowned in pain.
Baron Stuart realized that this woman suppressed her pain under his low growl
and didnt make a sound.
Looking at the blood-stained gauze, Baron Stuarts heart felt inexplicably heavy, and he subconsciously pulled Emilys other hand to walk towards the staircase entrance.
Emily was led by him all the way to his room, somewhat puzzled by his actions..

Sit down. After pulling her into the living room, Baron Stuart directed her to sit on the sofa, then turned and walked off in another direction.
Before long, he returned with a small, white wooden box in his hand and sat down beside Emily Walker.
Throughout the process, Baron Stuart seemedpletely oblivious to his unprecedented actions. It was only when he was poised to disinfect Emily with an alcohol-soaked cotton ball that he suddenly paused.
After a few silent seconds, he aggressively tossed the box of supplies onto
Emilysp,manding, Do it yourself!
Once done, Baron Stuart awkwardly rose to his feet, moving to sit on a single sofa across the room.
He didnt understand what had juste over him, the desire to personally assist this woman in cleaning her wound. He must have been away from femalepanionship for too long!
Staring at the disinfection tools tossed at her, Emily appeared disconcerted. Looking up at the man across from her, she saw his cold demeanor as he deliberately averted his gaze.
To begin disinfecting herself, she had to unwrap the gauze around her wrist. This proved somewhat challenging with one hand.
With no one around in the room who could lend her a hand, she had no choice but to maneuver the gauze to her mouth and attempt to unravel it with her teeth.
During her struggle, Baron Stuart inexplicably returned his gaze to her, watching her strange behaviour intently.
Ah Emily was about to untie the knot when her teeth slipped, tightening it instead. This made things even moreplicated!
She looked up and nced at the impassive man across her, hoping he might assist. But his earlier flippant reaction made her think better of the notion.
She had no other option but to use her teeth and keep trying!
Watching the gauze around her wrist chafe and redden from her clumsy efforts, Baron Stuart began to feel unexpectedly irritated. He abruptly stood, stormed over, snatched her injured wrist and grumbled, Foolish woman. Then patiently untied the knot for her.
Once the knot was loosened, Baron Stuart immediately rose, seemingly realizing the inappropriateness of his actions, and returned to the single sofa across the room.
With the gauze unwound, Emily was no longer hindered. She cleaned the bloodstain off her wound with an alcohol-soaked cotton ball, then applied fresh gauze.
Fearing the trouble of knots, she decided to avoid tying one and instead affixed the end of the bandage with adhesive tape.
Just as she was resetting the medical kit, the doorbell rang.
Both turned to look in the direction of the front door. Baron Stuart was the first to rise, intuitively knowing that the banquet downstairs was still ongoing and presuming that the only person who woulde looking for him at this time was one of his grandfathers men.
Getting to the door, Baron Stuart reached out to the visible doorbell disy on the wall. To his surprise, it wasnt a servant of Old Master Stuart, but Old Master Stuart himself standing outside the door!
It seemed like there was no escaping the old mans determination to announce that matter today!
Turning back, Baron Stuart nced at Emily who was also looking in his direction. He swiftly rose, grabbed her, and pushed her into the bedroom.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Stay here, donte out! After concealing Emily in the bedroom, Baron Stuart swiftly closed the door. He returned to the living room before opening the front door to let Old Master Stuart in.
The elder Stuart, Zachary, wore a faintly displeased expression. Though he doted on his grandson, he had never indulged him..
Chapter 25 - 25: 25: Locked in the Room

Trantor: 549690339N?v(el)B\\jnn
I thought you said you were justing up to change clothes. Why havent you gone back downstairs after changing? Old Master Stuarts tone was slightly displeased. He knew his beloved grandson had no intention of returning to the banquet, and thats why he came up personally to take him down.
As he approached the sofa, Zachary found a scattered medicine box.
He raised his head and looked at Baron Stuart, Whats wrong with you? Did you get hurt somewhere?
Upon hearing this, Baron Stuarts nerves tightened, fearing his grandfather would sense something. Casting a nce, he found that the clumsy woman had tidied up the bloodstained gauze; otherwise, his grandpa would have insisted on getting to the bottom of it.
Nothing serious. I identally broke a cup just now, and the shards cut my hand. Ive already put on a patch.
After Baron Stuart finished speaking, he subconsciously hid one hand under the other, rubbing the injured finger as ifforting it. In reality, he didnt want Zachary to see his hand that had not been bandaged.
Zachary nced at his protected palms and nodded. As long as he was alright,
Okay,e down with me.
As for his previous evasion, Zachary didnt intend to me him. All that mattered was that he epted the arrangements for tonight.
Okay. In order to prevent Zachary from discovering Emily Walkers presence, Baron Stuart got up first.
Zachary then stood up as well, and the grandfather and grandson left the room together. Before leaving, Baron Stuart looked back at the bedroom.
Emily Walker stayed in the room, pressing her face to the door. She didnt want to eavesdrop on the conversation outside, just know when they left the room.
Finally, when it seemed like there was no movement outside, Emily cautiously opened the door and peeked out.
Had they left?
She tiptoed out of the living room with no one in sight outside.
Checking the time, it was already 9:30 PM, and it was time for her to leave.
Just as Emily approached the door to open it, she discovered C the door couldnt be opened!
What was going on? Emily desperately turned the doorknob but still couldnt open it.
Hey, is there anyone out there!? No matter how much she pounded on the door, there was no movement outside.
Could it be that she had been locked inside? Bang! Bang! Bang! Hey, is anyone out there!? Let me out!
As the door remained closed, Emily panicked!
Wine Party Hall
In the luxurious and aristocratic banquet hall, Baron Stuart remained expressionless throughout, his unapproachable demeanor stopping those who saw him from wanting to engage in conversation.
Brother, whats wrong with you? Be Stuart, hand in hand with Leonardo Bryson, approached and couldnt help but ask when she saw her brother looking not so good.
Baron looked at his little sister, and calmly replied, Nothings wrong.
Baron, I heard todays wine party theme is for you and Cam Walker? Seeing his friends unapproachable expression, Leonardo couldnt help but tease, having guessed what Old Master Stuart was going to announce today.
Last year, the engagement between Baron Stuart and Cam Walker was supposed to be announced. However, Baron left back then. Without the presence of the main subject, Old Master Stuart, concerned about the Stuart Familys face, did not make the announcement.
Nowadays, fearing the past would repeat itself, Old Master Stuart personally captured Baron Stuart, so it seemed certain that todays engagement would be announced..
Chapter 26 - 26: 26: I Won’t Get Engaged to You
Chapter 26 - 26: 26: I Wont Get Engaged to You
Trantor: 549690339
Baron Stuart heard this and shot a murderous nce at Leonardo Bryson,
Since its rare for you toe back, should I give you a gift?
Forget the gift, Ill have to give it back to you when you get married anyway. Leonardo raised his wine ss and continued teasing.
Actually, Leonardo knew very well that Baron Stuart didnt like Cam Walker, and he avoided her arrogant and rude youngdy behavior.
Its just that family interests had determined everything for Baron Stuart since he was born, and he couldnt choose his own marriage or friends.
I wont get married. Baron Stuart drained the wine in his ss. From childhood to adulthood, he had almost always obeyed his grandpa, but this time, he wanted to rebel.
Brother, I support you! As for Cam Walker, Be Stuart didnt have much good feeling either. Although her appearance and family background were excellent, her personality made her far from bing Bes sister-inw!
Her sister-inw must be the type of gentle, weak person who gave the impression of needing protection!
Of course, this was all just Be Stuarts imagination!
Baron Stuart looked at his sister and gave her a faint smile, then turned to look at Zachary Stuart and Vivian Ferguson not far away.
He put the wine ss on the dining table and walked towards them.
But just after he took a few steps, he caught a glimpse of Cam Walker not far away.
He squinted slightly, somewhat puzzled. Wasnt she supposed to be abroad? Why would she appear here?
Ladies and gentlemen, thank you foring tonight. Actually, I have an announcement to make. Baxter Walker, Chairman of the Walker Group, said to the guests in the conference hall.
The Stuart and Walker Families have been longstanding friends for a long time. Cams grandfather was even Old Master Stuartsrade and friend. He had always wanted to establish a marriage alliance with the Stuart Family.
However, Old Master Walker passed away due to illness when Cam hadnt yete of age, so the marriage was postponed.
Despite this, both families had an unspoken understanding, and they knew that Cam would eventually be the Stuarts daughter-inw.
Whether in terms of family bonds or interest, Cam Walker was the best choice.
Baxter Walker looked at Old Master Stuart, raised his hand, and made a gesture for him toe to the stage.
Although Old Master Stuart was already eighty years old, his body was still
vigorous ana ms spirit was as strong as ever.
Tonight, the matter Im announcing is- Old Master Stuart smiled at the audience, originally intending to make the engagement public, but was unexpectedly interrupted by Baron Stuart in front of the stage.
Grandpa. Baron Stuart raised his deep eyes and looked at Zachary Stuart.
If it was usual, nobody would dare to interrupt Old Master Stuarts words, even Baron Stuart had never done it before. This made Zachary Stuarts eyebrows furrow slightly.
I wont get engaged with Walker
Baron! Standing at the edge of the stage, Cam Walker immediately ran over when she saw Baron Stuart, standing in front of him and gently grabbing his arm, Where have you been? Ive been looking for you for a long time!N?v(el)B\\jnn
Cam originally nned to go abroad, but the day before leaving, her dad told her that she would be engaged to Baron Stuart tonight, so her ns were dyed.
Baron Stuart looked at her, then somewhat annoyed, withdrew his arm and said, I wont get engaged to you.
His words made everyone present surprised as they all looked over at them..

After saying that, Baron Stuart turned to leave.
You stop right there! Old Master Stuart shouted angrily, his face turning from purple to blue because of Baron Stuarts words.
Baron Stuart stopped at the sound, he didnt want his life to be manipted by his grandpa forever.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
He turned around, looking at Zachary Stuart, Grandpa, cant I decide my own
As the sole heir of Futuren Group, you should know your life from the moment you were born! Zachary Stuart shouted angrily.
He was not a heartless man, all of this was for Baron Stuart, for their entire Stuart Family, for the whole Futuren Corporation.
In families like theirs, marriages didnt need emotions. Emotions were fragile, unable to withstand the test of a life with no money. In this world, only money and power were indestructible.
Of course, it was also possible to cultivate feelings after marriage, just like Baron Stuarts parents, who fell in love after getting married.
The reason Zachary Stuart thought this way was because he had once experienced a failed rtionship. At that time, he had nothing, and that woman left him for a man with a good family background.
After that failed rtionship, he firmly believed that in this world, no emotion is indestructible. In the face of money, women be weak, and even the once-sworn eternal love bes a fleeting cloud, scattered by the wind.
Baron Stuart, whats wrong with you? How can you go against your grandpas wishes? At this moment, Vivian Ferguson walked over.
Although she knew that her son could be a bit impulsive at times, he had never gone against his grandpas words in these 28 years, which surprised Vivian Ferguson.
Baron Stuart looked at his mother, and said solemnly, Mom, no matter what, I will not agree to this engagement.
After saying that, Baron Stuart turned and walked away.
Baron Stuart! Vivian Ferguson worriedly called from behind.
Stop him! With Zachary Stuarts order, the two bodyguards at the entrance of the conference hall swiftly came over and blocked Baron Stuarts way.
Baron Stuart looked at the two men in ck suits and raised his chilling pupils, Move aside.
The two bodyguards nced at him, and then at Old Master Stuart not far away. Although both were their masters, they still had to obey the Old Masters orders in the Stuart family.
Young Master, please dont make it difficult for us. The two bodyguards bowed their heads and said respectfully.
You arent going to move? Baron Stuart looked coldly at the two bodyguards. Thanks to his family background, he had received special training since he was a child, and these two men were no match for him.
The two bodyguards didnt speak, but they didnt move either, because their duty was to obey the orders of the person with the most authority.
Even though Baron Stuart was also a Young Master, they dared not disobey Zachary Stuarts orders!
Seeing that the two wouldnt move, Baron Stuart stepped forward, his icy expression revealing the pent-up anger he harbored at this moment!
Young Master
As they saw him determined to move forward, the two bodyguards reluctantly put their hands on him. As soon as they reached out, Baron Stuart grabbed one of the bodyguards by his cor with one hand and flung him forcefully to one side. The guard flopped to the ground.
Someone! Stop him, no matter what! Zachary Stuart ordered again, and soon, seven or eight men in ck suits entered the conference hall and rushed towards Baron Stuart.
Young Master, were sorry! Previously, because of concerns that he was a young girl, the bodyguards hadnt been too presumptuous. Now that the Old Master had given the order, they had no more scruples..

Trantor: 549690339
In the end, Baron Stuart was not able to withstand everyone else. He was very clear that he could probably handle his grandfathers men if it was one against three, but against eight, he seemed to be having difficulties.
After all, his grandfathers men had all undergone hellish training, and ordinary people would not be able to defeat them.
Grandpa! Baron Stuart yelled angrily, looking at Zachary Stuart, it seemed like he couldnt escape tonight!
Seeing his beloved grandson being captured, Old Master Stuartughed with satisfaction, Young man, have you ever heard the saying, the older the ginger, the spicier it gets?
If you dare, let them face me one-on-one! Baron Stuart roared!
Tsk, Im not a fool. If I face you one-on-one, could I catch you then? Old Master Stuart dismissed him with an annoyed look, then turned to the people in the room and started to apologise, Im sorry, my beloved grandson was being willful just now. Lets continue our previous topic.
The main purpose of tonight is to announce the marriage between the Stuart and Walker families. Today, its the engagement banquet of my grandson and the heiress of the Walker family.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Grandpa! Baron Stuart waspletely enraged, but his hands were held by others, and at this moment, apart from being angry, he couldnt do anything else.
Ignoring his grandsons words, Old Master Stuart continued with a smile, So, thank you all for supporting the Futuren Group and Walker Group. Please send your warm blessings to this perfect couple.
Grandpa! Do you think I will obey you like this? Let me tell you, even if
Someone, take the young master to his room. Zachary Stuarts face darkened. After all, he was in public, and he didnt want this grandson of his to continue being willful.
Hearing this, several bodyguards took Baron Stuart away from the conference hall. Cam Walker couldnt help but feel overjoyed, she turned to Zachary
Stuart and said, Grandpa, can I go too?
Of course, go ahead. Old Master Stuart said with a smile.
Watching her brother being led away, Be Stuart was about to explode with anger!
Grandpa! I think youre senile! After she finished shouting, Be Stuart also turned around and left the conference hall.
Being yelled at by his granddaughter like this, Old Master Stuart felt wronged.
Who didnt know that he loved Be Stuart ten times more than Baron Stuart. From a young age, she had been spoiled and indulged, except when she wanted to drive a car.
I can walk by myself! Inside the elevator, Baron Stuart shook off the bodyguards holding him, his anger had reached a boiling point.
Of course, everyone in the Stuart family knew about the young masters temper. It was only a show in front of the old master. Who would dare to offend the young master.
Baron Stuart walked into his hotel room angrily, and then mmed the door shut!
He loosened his tie a bit, feeling a bit irritable. As he raised his head, he saw a pair of terrified eyes.
Looking at the person in front of him, Baron Stuart paused for a moment, and then asked, Why are you still here?
Noticing his bad mood, Emily Walker swallowed, When you left, you locked the door, and I couldnt get out.
You can leave now. Baron Stuart said coldly. He walked over and sat down on the sofa, irritably throwing his suit jacket aside.
Emily Walker took a look at him, feeling that this man waspletely different from before.
Never mind, its not her business anyway.
Without saying anything more, Emily Walker headed towards the door. Just as she opened it, she saw a woman standing in the doorway, seemingly about to knock on the door.
Cam Walker was just about to knock on the door when she saw a woman standing inside the room. This surprised her and her eyes immediately filled with hostility..

Trantor: 549690339
Who are you? Cam Walker asked as soon as she opened her mouth.
Emily Walker looked at her and hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to respond, 11 am
She is my woman! Baron Stuart seemed to hear themotion at the front door, so he got up and walked over. He didnt wait for Emily to finish and assertively dered.
Upon hearing this, Emily widened her eyes, unbelievingly looking at Baron Stuart.
Cam Walker also stared at him, What?N?v(el)B\\jnn
She had just be engaged to him, and now another woman appeared?
Youwhat are you talking about? Who is your woman? Emily was somewhat angry at his words and questioned him.
Although she and Baron had an unusual rtionship for one night, were they really a couple now?
Youve slept with me before, so arent you my woman? Baron Stuart looked at Emily, with a hint of a mocking smile at the corners of his mouth.
As soon as he spoke, Cam Walker looked even more incredulously at the two of them. Emily was so furious that she clenched her fists, wanting to tear the man in front of her apart but dared not to.
This mandid he just casually reveal what had happened that night? What was his intention?
YouBaron, how can you do this to me? Cam Walker asked in great pain.
Just now, she had been overjoyed about their engagement, but now he was telling her that he had slept with this woman.
What have I done to you? I told you before that I have no feelings for you. Even though were engaged, its just a formality. Baron Stuart said emotionlessly.
It seems that trying to reason with his grandfather was no longer an option, so now he had to force Cam Walker to back down.
Butbut Ive liked you since I was a child, and you know that! Cam Walker said with a painful heart.
She had loved him for more than ten years, and her childhood dream was to be Baron Stuarts bride. Now that they were finally engaged, he told her that he had another woman.
I know, and I havent stopped you from liking me. Baron Stuart remained indifferent.
What Cam Walker looked at him, and did his words mean that her feelings meant nothing to him?
She turned her eyes to the woman standing next to him. It must be her! It must be this woman who seduced Baron Stuart!
Enraged, Cam Walker raised her hand without thinking and aimed a fierce p at Emily Walkers cheeks!
But it was quickly caught by the alert Baron Stuart!
Emily Walker widened her pupils in disbelief, looking at Cam Walker, her eyes filled with shock and horror, was this woman going to p her in the face?
God, who had she offended?
Im telling you, no matter what your status is, if you dare touch her from now on, I will make sure you pay a terrible price! Baron Stuart said angrily, staring at Cam Walker, his words squeezed out between gritted teeth.
It wasnt that he really wanted to protect Emily Walker, but rather, he wanted
to show Cam Walker that his heart belonged to not her, but to this woman standing in front of her!
You Cam Walker was so angry that her whole body trembled, but she couldnt say anything!
Shaking off her hand, Baron Stuart walked into the room with Emily Walker, but Emily shook him off!
Shaking off Baron Stuarts hand, Emily Walker walked straight to the elevator entrance without looking back.
Baron Stuart wanted to call out to her but suddenly realized that he still didnt know the womans name, so he gave up..

Upon closing the door, Baron Stuart did not n on letting Cam Walker in, leaving her standing outside.
yton Howard.
Right here.
Find out everything you can about that woman; I want all of her information. Baron Stuart sat on the sofa, speaking solemnly.
Yes. yton Howard nodded and left.
When Emily Walker left the Futuren Hotel, it was already 10:30 PM, and the public buses had stopped running. She had no choice but to randomly hail a taxi and get in.
When she arrived home at 11 PM, Emily was a bit tired. She opened the door and intended to go upstairs to sleep, but noticed that the dark living room suddenly lit up!
Her expression froze for a moment and noticed Emma Hudson wasing downstairs. Bring her luggage to her!
Seeing Emily just entering the door, Emma Hudsons eyes were full of contempt, and she spoke angrily.
Soon, Emily saw a servant removing her belongings and cing them in front of her.
She looked at Emma Hudson with confusion and asked, Aunt, what..
Oh really? Cant you understand? I provide you with food and shelter, but you never help me. Why should I still let you live in my house? To freeload? Emma Hudsons eyebrows raised, the thought of Emilys selfish act of using all the
money from the Crown Prince of Futuren Group to save her little brother made
her blood boil!
Facing Emma Hudsons reprimand, Emily clenched her fists in secret. Aunt, have I ever freeloaded? Since moving into your house, havent I given you 800 USD every month for living expenses?N?v(el)B\\jnn
Although 800 USD was not a lot, Emily only came home to eat one meal at night, usually working. To have a peaceful mind, she even acted like a maid and helped with household chores. Although she was not good at cooking, she still knew how to wash clothes and clean the house.
Because of this, Emma Hudson dismissed a maid after Emily moved in and let Emily handle everything at home.
At her words, Emma Hudson sneered contemptuously, Humph, you think your few hundred bucks can afford a vi like this? Eat such delicacies?
Although Emily lived as a maid at the Adams house, due to Henry Adams insistence, she had dinner with the family every day. What they ate, she ate as well. This was because Henry Adams still remembered her calling him Uncle.
Indeed, 800 USD couldnt afford a vi or such luxurious dinners. But that was as much as she could contribute.
What are you arguing about at this hour? Henry Adams, who had just woken up from a nap, heard themotion downstairs and walked out of his room.
Seeing her husband, Emma Hudson looked away.
No matter what, she was determined to drive this jinx from the house today!
Henry Adams looked at his wifes angry face, then to Emily, and finally at the luggage nearby. He couldnt help but frown, Emily, what are you doing?
Since she got herself attached to the Crown Prince of the Futuren Group, your beloved niece thinks our house isntfortable enough for her. She came back to pack up and leave. Before Emily could speak, Emma Hudson interjected.
Emily held her breath. She didnt want to argue with Emma Hudsons words any further.. After all, her aunt was dead set on forcing her to leave, so what good would exining do anyway?

Henry Adams looked at his wife, half-believing and half-doubting her words, not knowing whether they were true or false. Then he turned to look at Emily Walker, who was silent and seemed to understand something.
Emma, did you take Emilys things without her permission? Henry knew his petty wife all too well.
From the day Emily moved in, his wife had been trying every means to drive her away, and he couldnt be more clear about it.
Henry Adams! What do you mean by that!? Exposed, Emma Hudson was somewhat humiliated and furious, upset that he would rather help Emily than stand up for his own wife.
Henry sighed and looked at Emma, There are so many rooms in our house. Whats wrong with giving one to Emily? When her father was alive, didnt you often let her stay at our house?
Henry was also helpless about his wifes snobbishness.
Youre well aware that her father was alive then, but times have changed, do you understand!? Emma yelled discontentedly, Dont you think shes brought all the bad luck to our house? Ever since she entered our home, things started going wrong in thepany. No matter what you say today, she has to leave!
Whos actually in charge of this house!? Henry couldnt help but be angry. He had already felt guilty for sending Emily to the Crown Prince of the Futuren Group, and now he just wanted to be kind to her, after all, she was his niece.
You you yelled at me? In their 20 years of marriage, he had never once yelled at her, and yet today he yelled at her for an outsider. Emmas eyes instantly filled with tears, feeling aggrieved.
Fine, you two can stay together as a family. Ill leave! Saying that, Emma pretended to storm out the door.
Stop! Henry yelled, Youre acting so childish!
As soon as Emma heard that Henry had intentions of letting her stay, she knew, no matter what, an outsider couldntpare to family. She immediately turned around and looked at Emily, Its either her or me, you decide!
You Henry also felt helpless.
Seeing the two argue like this because of her, Emily Walker spoke up, Uncle, its my own decision to leave. Ive already found a ce to live, and I dont want to bother your family anymore.
As for her uncles previous actions, Emily didnt want to delve deeper.
Leaving this ce of conflict might be a good start for her. After all, her little brothers medical fees were temporarily taken care of, and her pressure had been greatly reduced.
After saying this, Emily picked up her luggage box and put the keys in her hand on the tea table. She then turned around and left, walking out of the grand entrance.
Emilyn/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Youe back here! Henry wanted to say something, but Emma pulled him back forcefully and mmed the door shut with a loud bang.
Walking in the courtyard, Emily turned her head back upon hearing the noise. Having lived in this house for almost two months, she felt no lingering attachment to it.
However, in this vast world, where should she go?
At 11:/.6 PM. Emily dragged her luggage box and walked slowly down the narrow alley, not knowing where to spend the night.
Now that she had moved out of her uncles house, she should be looking for a suitable ce to live. However, it was already sote at night and the residential area was quiet. There was no way she could find a ce at this time.
It seemed that tonight, she could only go to the hospital and spend the night in Wace Carters hospital room..

Trantor: 549690339
With that thought, Emily Walker lifted her head, looking towards the dimly lit flourishing city not far away, and decided to hail a taxi to the City Hospital.
Just as she was about to leave the narrow alley and go to the designated taxi stand, she saw a taxi parked right at the mouth of the alley. For a moment, Emily felt that perhaps fate still had somepassion for her, saving her the trouble of walking all the way.
Excuse me, sir, are you avable? As she approached the taxi, Emily bent down, politely asking the driver in the drivers seat.
The driver nced at Emily outside the car window and checked her out from head to toe, then chuckled, Yes, hop in.
Hearing the drivers response, Emily smiled and, without thinking too much, opened the car door and got into the backseat. She then directed the driver, City Hospital, please.
The car slowly started, and under the dim streetmps, Emily failed to notice that this slightly worn-out taxi didnt even have a license te
The dusk in E City was flying by fast outside the car window, just like an unpredictable life that vanishes like smoke before you can grasp it.
Looking at the city lights twinkling outside the window, Emily felt a heavy sadness in her heart.
Pushing away all concerns, she lifted her eyes and gave herself an understanding smile, believing, so long as she was willing to try, all the difficulties would eventually pass.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Just as she looked out at the vast city through the car window, she realized that these were not the roads to the City Hospital!
She furrowed her brows in bewilderment and looked at the driver, asking, Excuse me, sir, did you take a wrong turn? This isnt the way to the hospital!
Upon hearing her words, the drivers face flickered unnaturally for a moment,
but he quickly replied with a smile, Dont worry, Im taking a shortcut. Well
get to the hospital quickly!
After speaking, the middle-aged driver, ignoring Emilys puzzled expression, suddenly sped up!
Looking at the retreating cityscape from the car window, Emily started to feel a surge of unease. In the rear-view mirror, she thought she saw a lecherous look on the drivers face!
Could it be that she had ended up in an illicit taxi?
Uncle, are are you really taking me to the hospital? Emily was extremely anxious. Her hands tightly gripped her small backpack, and she could feel sweat starting to form in her palms.
She nced out of the window, thinking more and more that this car was gradually veering away from the city centre!
Oh no! Could she really have ended up in an unlicensed taxi? She needed to stay calm, stay calm!
Emily held her breath as much as she could, took a deep breath, and tried her best to calm down.
Of course Im taking you to the hospital, littledy. Dont worry, well be there soon. The driver, while steering the wheel, steered the car into a smallne leading out of the city district.
This wasnt right. Even though she didnt know the exact location of the hospital due to the darkness of the night, the most noticeable Futuren Group building was located in the bustling city centre, and the City Hospital was not far from it.
Even if the hospital was overshadowed by tall buildings because of the night, she had just clearly seen the luxurious Futuren Group building soaring into the night sky. Even if this driver was taking shortcuts, there was no way he could be going in theplete opposite direction, right?
Emilys heart was filled with more and more unease. Recently, she had seen many news stories about college students and girls disappearing frequently.. When they were found, they were either vited or turned into unrecognizable corpses!

Would she end up like that too? She cant, absolutely cant let that happen!
In the endonly I am leftat this crossroads, where my left hand ring finger is
Just as Emily Walkers heart was filled with infinite anxiety and panic, and she was about to burst into tears, a burst of cell phone ringtone sounded.
Hearing the familiar melody, Emily knew it was her phone ringing in her bag it was her favorite song from her university years!
Feeling an excited mix of urgency, she fumbled through her bag, eager to answer the phone as soon as possible.
She took out her phone, almost dropping it, and nced at the caller ID to see an unfamiliar number.
No matter who it was, at least there was a glimmer of hope!
Hello, who is this? 1 Just as Emily hurriedly answered the phone, she was interrupted by the piercing sound of brakes, followed by her body being thrown off bnce and swaying all over due to the shock of the sudden stop!
Looking up, she saw the driver stopping the car and then quickly climbing from the drivers seat to the back seat, reaching out to snatch the phone from her hand!
Youwhat do you wantdonte over here! Emily looked at the driver with some panic, but she was able to secure the phone, which she held onto tightly, knowing that this was her only chance for help!
Although she wasnt sure who was on the other end of the unfamiliar number, she knew the phone was connected, and she had to stay sober and somehow signal the person on the other end.
Looking straight ahead in the car, under the nights darkness, she saw a signboard atop a building: Starlight Hotel.
She nced at the approaching driver, her heart frantic and at a loss, quickly picking up the phone and desperately saying, No matter who you are, please save me, Starlight Hoteluh
Although her speech was fast and urgent, she still couldnt get the final message across to the other end of the phone, feeling as though a pair of slightly rough hands covered her mouth, seemingly trying to prevent her from revealing her current location.
As extreme uneasiness and fear took root in her heart, Emily desperately tried to pry open the hands covering her mouth, but in order to do so, she would have to muster up all her strength!
Ignoring the phone still in the call, she instinctively raised her hands, tightly gripping the drivers hand, and as soon as she felt some ck, Emily opened her mouth and instinctively bit down!
Ah! cried the driver, reflexively letting zo of his hand, looking at the wound
that had been bitten, already showing a trace of blood.
It seemed this young girl wasnt easy to deal with!
You, what exactly are you trying to do? What do you want to do to me!? Emily panicked and tried to move backward, but there was nowhere to retreat to!
Hehe of course, Im interested in your kidneys. Why else would I have brought you here? The driver spoke with a sly look on his face, then reached into his pocket as if to pull something out, while keeping a close eye on Emily, afraid she would escape!
Just as he blinked, Emily slowly extended the hand hidden behind her, opened the car door with lightning speed, and rolled out.
For a moment, she didnt dare to pause, despite falling from the car and the pain involved.. Ignoring it, she sprinted towards the city district as quickly as possible!

Meanwhile, in a luxurious suite.
Baron Stuart sits casually in a moon-white genuine leather sofa. His long left handzily cushioned his forehead. His gaze slightly downcast, he observes the cell phone in his right hand, then his eyshes flutter slightly.
He spoke unhurriedly, yton Howard.
Young Master. yton Howard had only just submitted the information Baron Stuart wanted half an hour ago, and he stepped forward at the sound of his voice.
Baron Stuart toyed with the cell phone in his hand and spoke casually. His inscrutable ck eyes were deep and mysterious, Ive been hearing about numerous cases of missing girls nationwide recently. Is that true?
As he finished speaking, Baron Stuart continued to look down at the mobile phone in his hand without raising his head.
yton Howard was taken aback, did not understand why Young Master, who is usually disinterested in affairs outside of his own, suddenly became concerned about this.
He hesitated for a moment, considering before responding, Its true. Recently, there have been numerous cases of missing girls nationwide. From what I understand, most of them disappeared in the early morning.
Whats the reason? Baron Stuart still didnt look up as he asked.
His questioning only deepened yton Howards confusion. Despite his bewilderment over the Young Masters questions, he replied nheless, I heard its the work of criminals, they stalk at night and trick young girls into secluded ces, defiling and killing them before burying them in the wilderness.
When the words came to this point, a strange sinking feeling rose up in Baron Stuarts heart. He looked up slightly, the sense of unease that even confused him himself.
Theres also another thing that has gone viral on the inte recently.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
yton Howard continued, I heard that a crime syndicate often abducts young girls in public, and their purpose is
He hesitated, To harvest their kidneys and sell them at high prices to ck market dealers.
As yton Howard recounted this, the strange unease in Baron Stuarts heart only intensified!
Immediately, without waiting for yton Howard to finish, he interrupted him urgently, Immediately get people to find all the Starlight Hotels in the city! His urgent tone, apanied by a simmering anger, left yton Howardpletely baffled, unsure why the young master would suddenly want to investigate numerous Starlight Hotelste at night.
Young Master, right now? asked yton Howard, hesitating.
Yes, immediately! Find that woman for me! Baron Stuarts voice was tinged with an inexplicable anxiety. Onlookers may see things clearer than those who are immediately involved, and this was probably the case.
yton Howard couldnt understand why the young master seemed so anxious, but Baron Stuart himself hadnt noticed his own anxiety.
Young Master, which woman? yton Howard asked fearlessly. And it wasnt really his fault for asking, given how abruptly the young master had ordered him to find a woman.
However, being able to serve at Baron Stuarts side as his close servant, yton Howard was also quick-witted and he quickly put together Baron Stuarts inexplicable series of questions.
Could it be that the woman that Young Master had previously instructed him to investigate was kidnapped? And the cluey at Starlight Hotel?
Young Master, youre referring to Lady Carter being taken away? yton Howard was surprised at this conclusion.
Arent you going yet! Baron Stuart roared, thinking that the woman might be buried in the wilderness, or even worseC

Dont just stand there, go! Baron Stuart was furious, thinking that woman might have been buried in the wilderness or taken by someone
His heart was filled with inexpressible irritation and unease. He couldnt wait to turn the entire E City upside down to find out where that woman was.
Just as yton Howard was about to turn and leave, Baron Stuart suddenly called out to him, Wait a minute!
yton Howard turned back and responded, Young Master.
Shes probably not at the inn. Pay attention to any suspicious vehicles on nearby roads.
Previously, he seemed to have heard the sound of a sudden brake on the phone, which suggested that the criminals might not have reached their destination when the woman became aware of their presence.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Moreover, judging from the situation, that woman should have taken the opportunity to get off the car.
One hourter
Emily Walker finally woke up from her shock, sitting up in a panic. Her first instinct was to reach out and touch her side, feeling her smooth skin unharmed. She then raised her head, trying to figure out where she was.
Her kidney was still there, but what ce was this?
An hour ago, she had run for a long time, dragging her battered body, but was eventually caught by Driver Uncle. She tried to struggle, but he covered her mouth with a white handkerchief, and she lost consciousness, remembering nothing afterward.
Looking around this unfamiliar and somewhat luxurious room, Emily Walker was both frightened and panicked. She was afraid that she had fallen into the hands of the thieves, and those people would probably be waiting for her to wake up so they could take her kidney!
Feeling terrified and uneasy, she quickly got off the bed and ran towards the front door, not even taking the time to put on her shoes. As she reached out to turn the doorknob and open the door, it was unexpectedly opened from outside.
Due to her extreme fear, Emily Walker screamed, startling Baron Stuart, who was just entering.
Have you gone mad!? Although her scream annoyed him, seeing her terrified expression filled Baron Stuarts heart with an unbearable ache
However, this ache seemed to be something he didnt want to admit, quickly concealed by his displeased expression, which was unnoticed by the outsiders.
This familiar voice made Emily Walker, who had lowered her head due to nervousness, suddenly stop. She slowly raised her head and looked at the man in front of her.
Although this man in front of her was too handsome for her liking, seeing him inexplicably eased her fear.
What was going on? Wasnt she taken away by the Driver Uncle? Then why was the young Lord here?
You how did you ah Emily Walker didnt have the time to ask about her doubts before realizing that her legs were off the ground, and she was swept into a pair of strong and powerful arms.
What, what are you doing!? Suddenly being lifted and pressed so closely against him, she couldnt help but feel tense, not knowing what this man wanted to do.
Baron Stuart remained silent, holding her firmly while walking towards the bed, his face showing the usual coldness and impatience.
He arrived beside the bed, gently set her down, and moved a white carved wooden chair nearby. He then sat down on the edge of the bed and gently lifted Emily Walkers legs, setting them on hisp..

Following her line of sight, Emily Walker then realized that her kneecap was already mangled, possibly because she had fallen from the car while fleeing previously.
Now it was 1:30 in the morning, and Emily had been rescued just about ten plus minutes ago. Baron Stuart, who had originally nned to leave the room for her to rest, discovered that she had injured her knee just before leaving, so he went to his room to get cotton swabs and disinfectant.
Seeing the small stones embedded in the mangled skin, Baron Stuart frowned and couldnt help but think: This woman is really stupid, casually getting into someone elses car!
Hiss it hurts! Perhaps it was due to the tension and fear before, which led Emily to not feel the pain in her knee at that time.
Nowadays, as her heart calmed down and she no longer felt fear, she could feel the unbearable pain in her knee.
Baron Stuart seemed to be aware of her pain and tried to be as gentle as possible when wiping her knee. But he wasnt ustomed to this delicate work, so he could only try his best to distract her focus.
I heard you are an idiot, Baron Stuart said lightly as he carefully cleaned her wound. He didnt lift his head, and his eyes remained focused on her wound, as if he was afraid he might hurt her even more.
Seeing his careful actions, Emily, who was initially a bit dazed, was taken aback upon hearing his words, looking puzzled, What?
Pausing his movements, Baron Stuart slowly lifted his eyes, ncing at Emilys side, Your kidney seems to be very good?
At his words, Emilys pupils dted, and she instinctively quickly withdrew her hand from his body without thinking. She looked frightened and said, What
what are you trying to do?
Could it be that the person who had intended to take her kidney before was this man? Then, she wasnt safe yet.
Seeing her terrified expression, Baron Stuart slightly curved the corners of his mouth with a sneer, as if he had guessed her thoughts at the moment.
If I had any interest in your kidney, would I let you wake up so safely and help clean your injured Baron Stuart spoke as he looked down at the cotton swab and disinfectant in his hand, suddenly pausing as though he had just realized he had done something unthinkable.
Looking at the medical tools in his hand, Emily suddenly understood that if he were really interested in her kidney, he wouldnt be cleaning her wound so carefully.
Im sorry, because you suddenly said that, so I She couldnt be med for her reaction, who would have thought he would suddenly say something so frightening!
Baron Stuart nced at her injured kneecap and was about to stand up and leave, but there seemed to be an impulse within him to continue, making it difficult to control himself.
Are you doing it yourself or should I help you? He looked up, his deep and clear pupils staring at Emily, giving her an unfathomable feeling.
Emily looked at the cotton swab in his hand and timidly said, I Ill do it myself. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
As she said this, she reached out to take the stuff from his hand.
Baron Stuart saw her outstretched hand and felt that his behavior was really abnormal, so he handed her the stuff and let her clean the wound herself.
After giving her the stuff, Baron Stuart stood up slightly and prepared to turn around and leave.
Thank you! Seeing him turning to leave, Emily suddenly spoke to his retreating figure..

Baron Stuart stopped in his tracks upon hearing her, but he didnt n on turning around.
Thank you for saving me. Emily Walker said again.
Though she didnt know-how this man had saved her, she was genuinely grateful to him.
You can stay here tonight. Without ever turning around, Baron Stuart nonchntly left the room after uttering these words.
After he left, Emily carefully attended to her wounds and bandaged them up before heading to the bathroom for a bath.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Checking the time, it was already 2 AM. She didnt know where this was, but since he had saved her and told her she could stay, there shouldnt be any issues.
After all, she now had no ce to live.
The next day
Every morning at 7:30 AM Baron Stuart had breakfast, but today was a weekend, so breakfast was changed to 8 0clock.
Today, Baron Stuart had a different appearance than at thepany. Instead of a suit and leather shoes, he wore a white homewear leisure shirt. Yet, even with such casual attire, it couldnt hide his attractive figure.
As he approached the sofa and leaned back into it, he turned on the LCD TV across from him. The channel disyed was not a financial program or a movie but rather a video.
The video showed the room next door, which was another luxury suite on the 68th floor.
At this moment, a hotel staff member was pushing a trolley into the room. Upon seeing Emily Walker about to leave, they politely smiled.
Lady Carter, this is the breakfast you ordered.
Emily was still wearing the same clothes from yesterday. Her jeans were torn from the fall, revealing a huge hole at the knee.
She looked at the trolley and the waiter, hesitating before she replied, Sorry, but I dont think I ordered breakfast.
Last night, she found out she was in a five-star hotel but didnt know whether the cost of staying there was on her or not, as it was the young lord who allowed her to stay.
If she had to cover the expenses herself, the money she had would not be enough.
Hearing this, the waiter smiled. There is no mistake, Miss. Please enjoy your meal. After speaking politely, they turned and left the room.
Emily was left dumbfounded.
The service in a five-star hotel is quite strange, insisting on giving her breakfast even after she said she didnt order it.
Seemingly smelling the breakfast fragrances, Emily suddenly felt hungry, which was not surprising as she hadnt eaten sincest night.
A nce at the rich breakfast on the table made it seem very appetizing!
But such a sumptuous breakfast must be expensive.
Emily patted her stomach; she was hungry but decided not to eat. Buying some buns outside would suffice!
With that thought in mind, she resisted her hunger, walked past the trolley, and prepared to leave. But at thest moment, she turned back to look at the trolley.
Approaching it, she drank the white water in the ss cup as she was simply too thirsty!
In the other room, Baron Stuart sat in front of the TV, watching Emily through the video, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Emily put down the cup and walked to the door. Upon opening it and seeing the handsome man at the door, her expression froze.
Baron Stuart nced at her, then at the trolley behind her, and asked, Why arent you eating breakfast?
Its too expensive. She told the truth.. It was indeed too expensive for her to afford even if she wanted to!

Is that so? But you stayed herest night, and the amodation fee is much more expensive than the breakfast fee. How do you n to pay? Baron Stuart looked at her and asked yfully.
Hearing this, Emily Walkers expression became somewhat tense. Wasnt it you who saidst night that I can stay here? I did say that, but did I say it was free?
What does he mean?
Emily Walker raised her dark eyes, and suddenly felt like she was being toyed with. However, what he said seemed to be true. Last night, he did say she could stay here, but he didnt mention it was free.
How much? Although she didnt know if the money she had would be enough, she still wanted to ask.
8888. Baron Stuart said casually. Its no wonder, as for someone with a worth of hundreds of millions like him, 8888 Yuan is not even enough to buy a piece of clothing.
But for Emily Walker, it was a huge number!
Eight, eight thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight? Oh my God, why is it so expensive!? She doesnt even have one thousand and eight on her!
Baron Stuart looked at her surprised expression and suddenly thought, This shouldnt be a difficult thing for you, right? Dont you have 1.5 million? A few days ago, he gave her 1.5 million, didnt he?
The money is already spent, Emily Walker lowered her head slightly, then quickly raised it again, her eyes brightened, Can I make installment payments?
Baron Stuart was startled, then disyed a calm expression, watching her silently.
I will return the rent to you. Its just, I dont have that much money right now. Actually, she thought she could default on the bill after all, it was him who let her stay herest night, not her own choice!
Young Master. As they were talking, yton Howard came over, Today is the weekend, the master asked you to visit home.
Hearing this, Baron Stuart frowned, nced at Emily Walker before him, and left.
Watching his retreating figure, Emily Walkers tense heart that was hanging in her throat finally fell.
Looking at the time, it was already 9 AM. Unlike those 9-to-5 office workers who could rest on weekends, her work became busier when they were resting.
She wanted to take out her cell phone and ask Gabrie Teddy for help to tell the store manager that shed bete, but she found that her cell phone was not in her small backpack when she searched.
She raised her head, her thoughts cast back tost night. She remembered that when she escapedst night, she seemed to have dropped her cell phone in the taxi!
Coco Milk Tea
Upon seeing Emily Walker, Gabrie Teddy immediately came over, Emily, youre finally here! I was so worried when you didnt answer the phone! Emily Walker looked at Gabrie Teddy and smiled, I lost my cell phone.
No wonder.
Two orders of pudding milk tea!
Alright,ing right up! Emily Walker responded before looking at Gabrie n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Teddy, Alright, its the weekend today, it must be very busy. Get to work!
Coco Milk Tea Shop was located on the bustling Pedestrian Street. It catered to the tastes of students and Emily Walker herself liked it very much as well.
Perhaps it was her interest that gave the milk teas she made a unique vor.
After working until lunchtime, the milk tea shop finally got a little break. Of course, it would be even busier after lunch.
Gabrie, can I borrow your cell phone? Emily Walker took advantage of the break to borrow Gabries cell phone to look for a suitable house.
Because it could save some agency fees by looking online..

What? You were kicked out by your Aunt!? Gabrie Teddy was aware of
Emily Walkers situation, so she had no good feelings for Emilys Aunt either!
Yeah Emily Walker was looking for a house while casually answering Gabrie Teddy, Hey, how about this one!?
She showed the house she had found to Gabrie Teddy.
Its not bad, but have you seen the rent? 3500 per month, how much is your sry? Gabrie Teddy had to remind her of this very realistic problem!
Seeing the rent below, Emily Walkers shoulders slumped in disappointment.
Gabrie Teddy was right, her sry at the Milk Tea Shop was only 3200 per month, plus the temporary job she took at night, her monthly sry was at most around 4500, so there was no way she could afford such a house. Thinking about this, Emily Walker filtered the price, choosing houses between
1000 and 2000.
In the Flourishing Metropolis, a room still costs thousands of dors even at the cheapest, and if it is in a remote suburb, the house price might not be high, but the transportation cost will be quite high.
From there to work would be a two-hour car ride.
What about this one? Its only 1800 USD, two rooms one hall. Emily Walker found another one.
Gabrie Teddy looked at it, Its quite cheap, but it seems to be on the unupied rooftop attic on Light Capital Road not far, though.
Lets just take it then, its cheap, and its not far from our work, only three stops! Emily Walker was actually quite satisfied with this house, even though it was just an unupied rooftop attic, as long as the environment was hygienic, she didnt have much to be picky about.
After all, to live in a decent house, a two rooms one hall t would also be unaffordable for her.
But Emily, youre just one person, right? Why do you need a two-room, one-hall? Gabrie Teddy asked curiously. N?v(el)B\\jnn
After all, she was just one person, wouldnt it be cheaper for her to find a one bedroom and one living room ce?
At this point, Emily Walker lowered her eyes, and ayer of sadness appeared on her face, Im afraid my little brother wont have anywhere to live when he wakes up.
Upon hearing this, Gabrie Teddy was stunned for a moment, and then agreed, Thats true too, huh
Soon, Emily Walker dialed thendlords number.
Stuart Manor
Under the luxurious grand crystalmp, the dazzling light created a noble atmosphere in this solemn and elegant living room.
Under the crystalmp, a set of European-style soft body, real wood
hand-carved genuine leather sofa, further highlighted the elegance and luxury
of this residence.
[In the end only I remain at the fork in the road the waiting of the left-hand ring finger has been stranded in loves]
Baron Stuartzily leaned back inside the sofa, listening over and over to the ringtone on his cell phone.
Counting this one, the phone had already rung twelve times, but he had no intention of answering the call for Emily Walker.
Brother, your cell phone has been ringing so many times, why dont you pick it up? Be Stuart came out of her room, curiously watching her brother who was silently in a daze on the sofa.
As far as she remembered, her brother had never been this dazed before.
However, Baron Stuart was not lost in thought, but carefully listening to the ringtone of the iing call on his cell phone..
Chapter 40 - 40 The Waiting of the Ring Finger
Chapter 40: The Waiting of the Ring Finger
Trantor: 549690339
Whats this song called? Baron Stuart turned and looked at his sister sitting next to him.
He remembered that this womans phone ringtone also seemed to be this song.
At this moment, the ringtone of the cell phone stopped, but Be Stuart also seemed to have some familiarity with this song, The Waiting of the Ring Finger.
The matter of the cell phone hadnt upied her thoughts for long, her curiosity was just that, after all, she didnt have much interest in her brothers calls!
Brother, how do you do this problem? Be Stuart was 18 years old this year, still in her third year of high school. Whenever she felt stuffy in her room, she would run out and ask Baron Stuart about some problems she didnt understand well.
Baron Stuart took the book and pen she handed over and casually nced at them, then easily exined the solutions.
s, my brother is so smart and handsome, but hes going to marry that arrogant Cam Walker, I cant stand it! Be Stuart pouted discontentedly.
Be, dont talk like that, its your grandfathers arrangement! At this moment, Vivian Ferguson came over. She was a more serene woman. Being born into a wealthy family, she also felt that the marriage between the Stuart and Walker families was a match in pretty much all aspects, and there was nothing bad about it.
And besides, I think Cam is quite good, beautiful too. She and your brother are quite a suitable pair.
Upon hearing this, Be Stuart immediately became unhappy and began to voice her own opinion, Mother! Thats all an act, you must know, Cam Walkers arrogance is famous, anyway, I dont like her!
Even though Cam behaved quite appropriately at the banquet that day, it was still obvious to everyone that she had a sense of arrogance on her face, and it seemed to be ingrained in her. No matter how much she pretended, she couldnt fool Bes discerning eyes!
But that was not what Vivian Ferguson thought. She felt that for girls from wealthy families like them, having a bit of a youngdys temper was only natural. Moreover, Cam was the only child of the Walker family, and it was inevitable that she would be doted upon.
Whats wrong with a bit of arrogance? Look at yourself, always having the temper of a youngdy, always acting like you cant be scolded or hit. Whenever Vivian Ferguson thought of her own daughter, she was also filled with headaches.
Mother! Cam Walker hasnt even married into our family yet, but why do I feel like you are already favoring her? Im the one whos your real daughter, arent I!? Be Stuartined discontentedly!
[In the end only me is left alone at this crossroad the waiting of the left-hand ring finger]
The phone rang again, and Vivian Ferguson looked over at the sound. Only then did she realize that the ordinary cell phone seemed not to belong to her son.
Baron Stuart, that cell phone doesnt seem to be yours, right?
Mm. Baron Stuart answered lightly, once again picked up the cell phone and looked at the caller ID. It was still a call from the hospital.
He forgot to return the cell phone to that woman when he left the hotel in the morning and didnt expect her work to be really busy.
It seems she thought about it all day, is there some urgent matter? Since the phone was not her sons, then it was possible that it belonged to his friend, or maybe there was some urgent matter.
As soon as Vivian Ferguson finished speaking, Baron Stuart remembered that that woman seemed to have a little brother in the hospital.
Hello? n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
A deep and husky male voice came over the phone. Dr. Fraser was taken aback, thinking he had dialed the wrong number, and unconsciously looked at the number he had dialed again.
After making sure he hadnt made a mistake, Dr. Fraser asked, Excuse me, is Lady Emily Walker there?
Loved ones, remember to add the book to your bookshelf after reading, kiss kiss.

Shes not here at the moment, what do you need? Baron Stuart held his cell phone, recalling the previous conversations between Emily Walker and the male doctor on the phone, his tone turned colder.
Please tell Lady Walker that her little brothers condition is unstable, and she needs toe to the hospital to handle further treatment procedures.
Baron Stuart no longer responded and hung up the phone. He then stood up and grabbed his car key, Im going out.
Seeing him get up and leave, Vivian Ferguson hurriedly stood up and shouted from behind him, Where are you going? Its almost time for dinner!
Without looking back, Baron Stuart left Stuart Manor.
With his exceptional memory, he remembered the woman working at a ce called Coco Milk Tea Shop.
Milk tea shops are rtively idle during meal times, so when the workers saw a sapphire blue convertible parked at the front door, they couldnt help but widen their eyes.
Wow, Gabrie Teddy, look! Its a luxury car! The first waitress eximed. Gabrie Teddy looked over and widened her eyes too, Wow, it really is!
Since the milk tea shop mainly attracts female students and couples, Baron Stuarts car immediately drew envious nces from many customers. A group of female students sitting by the window even gasped when they saw Baron Stuarts handsome face, which looked as though it was carved from stone.
Wow, that guy is so handsome
Yeah, and his car, so luxurious! I wonder what it feels like to sit in it.
Hey, isnt that Isnt that the heir of the Futuren Group?
Who? The young lord of Futuren Group?
Oh my God, it really is him.
Looking at the exquisitely decorated milk tea shop, Baron Stuart unlocked his seat belt, got out of the car, and walked gracefully towards the store. As soon as the handsome man entered, Gabrie Teddy and her colleague were both nervous and somewhat disoriented. They hesitated, unsure of how to greet him.
Eventually, the slightly rational Gabrie Teddy snapped out of it and took a step forward towards Baron Stuart. But, when she saw the elegant noble aura on his face, she shivered.
H-hello, what would you like to order?
Baron Stuart nced around the store and didnt see Emily Walker. He then slightly lowered his mysterious eyes, looked at the girl in front of him, and asked with thin lips, Im looking for Emily Walker.
Hearing that, Gabrie Teddy was astonished, and she thought: When did Emily meet such a handsome and rich guy? N?v(el)B\\jnn
Youre looking for Emily? She doesnt work in the evenings. She has already left to look for a house! Gabrie Teddy cheerfully responded.
Baron Stuart narrowed his eyes upon hearing that, Look for a house?
Yes, she was kicked out by her aunt, so she had to find a ce this afternoon. She should have already moved in by now. Thinking about Emilys sharp-tongued aunt, Gabrie Teddy was still angry!
Baron Stuart looked at the girl in front of him. She seemed to be Emilys friend.
Do you know the address of her new home?
Yes! Light Capital Road, Green Haven Estate, Building C, Room 501! Gabrie Teddy blurted out without a second thought.
She didnt think the man in front of her was a bad person.. On the contrary, if Emily really knew this rich man, maybe he could be the benefactor who could change Emilys life!
Chapter 42 - 42: 42: The Man Standing at the Front Door
Chapter 42 - 42: 42: The Man Standing at the Front Door
Trantor: 549690339
Emily Walkers life seemed too miserable; first, she lost her father, then she was kicked out of the house by her stepmother, and she was badly treated by her indifferent aunt. Now she is homeless, and her little brother still lies in the hospital.
Thinking of Emilys devastating fate, Gabrie Teddy genuinely hoped that she could meet a benefactor and then fight back against those viins with narrow-minded eyes!
Baron Stuart didnt speak any further, but turned around and left the milk tea shop.
The blue sports car drove to the entrance of Green Haven Estate, the residential area located behind the city centre. The old residential buildings were obscured by the new-style buildings, making it impossible to see their true appearance from a distance.
Looking at a somewhat dimly lit narrow alley, above the entrance of the alley was a sign that read, [Green Haven Estate.]
Baron Stuart opened the car door and frowned slightly at the dim alleyway.
He was somewhat skeptical whether that woman really lived inside. There were so many houses, yet she insisted on choosing such a shabby ce.
Walking gracefully and leisurely, Baron Stuart slowly entered the narrow alley.
At 7:30 PM, the night was gradually getting darker. Although the city district was brightly lit, this narrow alley was pitch-ck, giving a gloomy feeling. However, the light on both ends brought a faint glimmer of hope to the dark alley, enough to see the road and avoid falling.
It didnt take long before Baron Stuart saw the worn-out residential area after walking a few dozen meters down the alley.
Perhaps because the houses here were rtively cheaper, although the buildings were old, many people still lived here. Of course, those who chose to live in such a ce were probably migrant workers from the countryside.
Entering the residential area, Baron Stuart found Building C, Room 501, only to discover that 501 was not a formal room at all, but an attic on the top floor.
Even he had to stoop down to enter the door.
And most importantly, there was no elevator on the fifth level!
Looking at the closed wooden door, Baron Stuarts brows grew even tighter.
Was this woman really living here? Or did he remember the address wrong?
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, thinking he had gotten the wrong address, a small wooden door was opened, and Emily walked out.
Upon looking up, she immediately saw a tall figure in the bright moonlight. She recognized the handsome face that was so attractive it was almost criminal.N?v(el)B\\jnn
How could you be here? His appearance truly surprised her, but soon, she seemed to think of something, About the rent, I dont have it now, Ill have to wait until my sry is paid this month, and Ill give you one-third of the money first.
With this approach, as long as she tightened her budget, she would be able to pay off the 8888 rent in three times!
But wouldnt this man be a little too petty? Just for the rent, did he have to chase her so aggressively? She just moved into the new house, and he already knew about it!
You live here? Baron Stuart ignored her words and looked at the house behind her with a furrowed brow.
Emilys expression was a bit stupefied, and she looked back at the house following his line of sight before turning back and nodding, Well, didnt you know I lived here when you came looking for me?
Really, he had alreadye looking, and he was still asking her if she lived here. Was he afraid that she wouldnt pay him back the rent?
At this thought, Emilys affection for this man dropped to -1 point!

Baron Stuart looked at Emily Walker in front of him, unswayed by her words, and raised his hand to hand the white cellphone to her.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Emily lowered her head and when she saw her own cellphone, she couldnt help but widen her pupils and exim in surprise, Its my cellphone!
She quickly took it, thinking that she had lost her cellphone forever, never expecting to be reunited with it!
There were too many important contacts in her cellphone. Besides working at the Milk Tea Shop, she also took on many temporary jobs. Without her cellphone, she would have suffered huge losses!
Go to the hospital. Your little brother seems to be in an unstable condition. Barons cold voice rang out, causing Emily, who was still immersed in joy, to instantly darken her face.
She asked nkly, What are you talking about? My little brother?
Hmm, today your phone rang 12 times, all from the hospital. Baron didnt look at her, but shifted his line of sight elsewhere.
What! Emily stared wide-eyed, then dropped her face with a flustered expression. Even under normal circumstances, the hospital wouldnt call her that many times. Could it be that there was a problem with Waces condition today?
Not allowing herself time to think, Emily quickly rushed to the staircase entrance and stumbled down the stairs to the first floor.
Seeing her anxious, panicked, and helpless expression, Baron also left the
Green Haven Estate.
In the bustling metropolis, even hailing a taxi was difficult. Every vehicle passing in front of Emily already disyed that they were full.
She was really anxious and at her wits end, unable to stay calm at the roadside for a moment.
Just as she was anxiously unsure what to do, a sapphire blue convertible stopped beside her.
Emily looked somewhat dazed at the cars owner, not knowing his intention.
If you dont get in soon, perhaps you wont even be able to see your brothersst moments, Baron Stuart said in an unconcerned manner.
But after hearing that, Emily felt angry at the thought of giving this sharp-tongued man a good punch!
However, considering the numerous calls the hospital had made to her, she was worried about Waces condition and couldnt help but open the car door and get in!
The car arrived at the City Hospital, and Emily urgently opened the door and rushed straight to the floor and hospital room where Wace was staying.
Although her brother is already here and there was no reason for him to stay, Baron didnt leave but sat in the car, watching Emilys retreating figure as she ran into the hospital.
Emily rushed to the 3rd Floor Inpatient Department, and when her anxious face saw the inside of the hospital room, her entire body froze.
Sister, a hoarse and low voice echoed in the hospital room, but strangely, there was a hint of excitement in that voice.
Emily waspletely dumbfounded, staring at Wace, who was half lying on the hospital bed, almost forgetting to breathe.
Wace, youwhats going on?
Lady Carter, youre finally here, Dr. Fraser had justpleted a check-up for Wace and greeted Emily with a smile when he saw her enter the room.
Emily looked at Dr. Fraser, her head spinning due to his words.
Dr. Fraser, didnt you say that Waces condition wasnt good? And that you made 12 phone calls to her!
I called you so many times today, but you didnt answer. Your brother was eager to see you, so I lied and said that his condition wasnt good. The reason was to make youe to the hospital sooner..

Dr. Fraser revealed the truth.
On hearing this, Emily Walker finally understood, and her uneasy heart finally settled.
Im sorry, I lost my cell phonest night and only found it a short while ago. After speaking, she looked towards her little brother, her eyes filled with confusion.
Finally, her little brother had woken up.
Sis Seeing the tears in his sisters eyes, Wace Carter called out to her. A sour feeling filled his nose, but he responded with aforting smile.
After going through these incidents, Wace seemed to have matured, losing his 18-year-old recklessness.
After briefly talking to her brother about their lives over the past few months, to avoid disturbing her rest, Emily Walker left the hospital an hourter.
By then, it was already 8:45 PM.
Upon leaving the hospitals grand entrance, she nned to walk to the bus station not far away. But when she lifted her head, she saw that familiar sapphire blue sports car parked at the hospitals entrance.
Thats strange, why is he
Ignoring her confusion, Emily approached the sports car slowly and said,
Thank you for bringing me to the hospital.
Although she was unsure why he hadnt left, she still thanked him out of politeness.
On hearing this, Baron Stuart raised his head. His pitch-ck pupils seemed bottomless under the streetmp, giving off a mysterious aura, Are you sincere?
What? His sudden question confused Emily.
Gratitude shouldnt just be verbal, right? Baron Stuart raised his gaze and stared at her dark eyes through the vibrant street lights.
Emily was momentarily stunned. She couldnt figure out what the man standing before her really wanted.
So how do you want me to thank you? She probed.
Baron Stuart turned his face and looked straight ahead, speaking faintly,
Invite me to dinner, I havent eaten dinner yet.
He hadnt had dinner since he gave her the cell phone, drove her to the hospital, and until now, disrupting his usually regr meals.
Emily seems to have realized this too and promptly nodded, Alright, but, can I choose the ce to eat?
She was worried that she might not be able to afford the ces he would choose.
Baron Stuart squinted slightly, showing curiosity about her choice of ce.
Opening the car door, the two, side by side under the European streetmps, slowly headed towards a nearby street.
Perhaps it was because it was their first time walking side by side, under the nights starry sky, they both felt an unusual atmosphere, making both of them a bit ufortable.
To break this dreadful atmosphere, Baron Stuart was the first to lift his head. He caught sight of a sign not far away and the prominent characters on it caused him to frown. N?v(el)B\\jnn
Seeing him suddenly stop, Emily looked at him in confusion, Whats wrong?
You are going to take me there for dinner? Baron Stuart nced at her and then pointed towards arge restaurant not too far away.
Following his line of sight, on seeing the prominent characters, a stabbing pain arose in Emilys heart making herplexion turn somber.
Within his dark eyes, Baron Stuart seemed to see a sh of hatred and determined intention.
The Avie Hotel, a restaurant that her father fought tirelessly to run. He worked for most of his life and managed to turn a small stall into a famousrge restaurant.
This restaurant, named after herself, was now owned by Elia Parker, the mother and daughter duo who had taken everything from the Carter family!

Baron Stuart nced down, noticing her tightly clenched fists, then took a step forward, moving towards the Avie Hotel.
Seeing him walk away alone, Emily Walker finally regained her senses, shouting behind him, Please wait, I didnt mean to invite you
If its to thank me, then the location should be my choice, shouldnt it? said Baron Stuart, curving his lips into a smile before turning around and making his way towards the main entrance of the King Garden Hotel.
As she watched him stride towards the hotel, Emily felt both anxious and unsure about what to do.
She was too weak at the moment, forced to stand by helplessly as her fathers legacy was taken away by others. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
More importantly, eating at her fathers hotel would cost at least several hundred dors, and she had just paid her rent, leaving her with hardly any money!
Um Baron Emily didnt know how to address him, so she simply followed him quickly.
A handsome man is always attracting attention, the moment Baron Stuart entered the hotel, he immediately drew several admiring nces!
He looked up, taking in the decor of this hotel which, although not top-notch, was elegantly unique and gave a refreshing feeling. Dining here would surely be a pleasant experience.
Sir, hello. A female waiter approached, casting infatuated eyes at the extraordinary gentleman in front of her, Would you like to dine here or in a private room?
Well dine in the main hall! Emily interjected before Baron Stuart could reply, stepping forward quickly.
She knew very well that the minimum consumption for private dining was 1680 USD, and she certainly didnt have that kind of money to treat this man!
She had originally nned to treat him to a bowl of beef noodles at the food stall across the street.
Seeing her suddenly appear, the waiter gave her a contemptuous look and irritably said to Emily, Alright, then. Then she looked at Baron Stuart with a smitten smile, Sir, this way please.
Observing the sycophantic behavior of the waiter, Emily rolled her eyes at them, feeling the sting of her current situation. It used to be that when she came here, the waiters would all call her youngdy. Now they cant even be bothered to hide their disdain!
But then again, was this woman new here? She had never seen her before.
Despite her confusion, Emily said nothing more but followed and sat down in a middle seat with Baron Stuart.
Once they were seated, that waiter politely handed the menu to Baron Stuart. When she raised her head to give one to Emily, her face turned into a disdainful sneer once again.
Call your Boss Lady here! Baron Stuart said in a cold voice after ncing at the menu, giving the waiter a chilling look that stunned her, not knowing what she had done wrong to upset this customer.
She looked at Baron Stuart fearfully, mumbling, The Boss Lady is in the back
Call her out! Baron Stuarts face turned colder, clearly annoyed and dissatisfied with this waiter.
Sitting across from him, Emily was startled when she heard he was asking for the Boss Lady. What are you trying to do? she asked in a low voice.
She just didnt get these rich peoples tempers. Even though the waiter had been pretty dismissive, she, the actual recipient of the disdain, hadnt gotten angry. So, why was he so displeased!?
Indeed, it seemed one couldnt even enjoy a meal in peace.
Dears, I just arrived in Hubei Province today. It was 8 PM when I got off the train. As I am using a friendsputer and some stuff is missing, Ill updateter..

Baron Stuart didnt say anything, but looked up at the confused waiter, No?
The waiter came to his senses, and although he was unsure if he had offended this distinguished guest, he reluctantly bent his body and said, Yes, Ill go and call our Boss Lady.
After he finished, he hurried towards the back of the Grand Hall with a flustered expression.
Emily Walker watched the flustered figure and was utterly puzzled. She looked at the man opposite her and asked, Hey, what the hell do you want?
She didnt want to see Elia Parker in the first ce, and this man insisted on calling her, not knowing that his actions had caused a lot of trouble!
Im going to the restroom. Baron Stuart ignored her question, stood up and left his seat at the dining table.
Seeing him walk away inexplicably, Emily Walker waspletely at a loss. He asked for the person toe, but now he went to the restroom C what does that even mean?n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Hey! What the hell do you want to do!? Emily Walker was getting a bit angry and couldnt help but growl at him as he stood up.
Baron Stuart stopped abruptly when he heard the sound and turned his head to look at Emily Walkers dissatisfied face, What do you think I can do in the restroom?
What?
Do you need me to exin it more clearly?
Hmm?
A few secondster, Emily Walker finally realized, her face flushed, and she quickly lowered her head, I got it!
Really! She didnt ask him what he was going to do in the restroom, she asked what he was going to do by calling the Boss Lady!
He really knew how to pick his time to go to the restroom!
Thinking about having to see Elia Parkerter, Emily Walker didnt know how to deal with it. She had no choice but to lower her face and bury her head in the menu!
Did you offend any customers!? Let me tell you, youre still on probation, I can fire you at any time!
Not far away, Emily Walker heard a womans voice that she had been familiar with for more than ten years.
More than ten years ago, this voice carried hypocritical kindness. More than ten yearster, it finally revealed its true colors.
I The waiter followed behind Elia Parker, and the expression he had when he looked at Emily Walker earlier was gone, reced with a wronged look on his face.
Seeing the waiters aggrieved expression, Emily Walker couldnt help but pull the corners of her mouth, raising a sneer.
Where is it!? Elia Parker yelled at the waiter in a low voice.
The waiter looked up and pointed to Emily Walkers location.
Emily Walker hurriedly lowered her head, covering her entire face with the menu.
She cursed that damn man a million times in her heart!
Hello Miss, is it you who was looking for me? Arriving at Emily Walkers location, Elia Parkers face was filled with a smile. She looked at Emily Walker, who was hiding her face with the menu, and asked.
Hearing that familiar voice, a pair of brows behind the menu furrowed together, not knowing what to do.
If Elia Parker knew it was her, she didnt know what troubles would arise.
However, she thought about it, and Emily Walker suddenly realized that she had nothing to hide from. The wrong ones were clearly Elia Parker and her daughter!
Thinking of this, Emily Walker calmed herself down, and the tense face suddenly rxed. She put down the menu in her hand and looked up at Elia Parker.
When Elia Parker saw the face behind the menu, her smile disappeared instantly, reced by an annoyed expression, and there seemed to be a hint of anger in her eyes.
Why is it you? What are you doing here!? Elia Parker couldnt help but think that Emily Walker must havee to her restaurant on purpose to cause trouble!

Thinking about this, Elia Parker couldnt help but be furious!
Emily Walker remained calm andposed. She had already seen through Elias true colors and had nothing to fear.
What do youe here for? Of course, its to eat. Emily didnt show her any kindness, speaking with unprecedented coldness.
Her calm demeanor annoyed Elia, who sneered disdainfully, Heh, eat? Do you not know how expensive it is to eat here? After saying this, she nced at Emilys now improved attire, Do you not think its extravagant for you to eat here given your current situation?
Although not a five-star restaurant,moners were generally reluctant toe here.
Upon hearing this, Emily remained calm, slightly lifting the corner of her lips and said, Indeed, a few months ago it was free for me to eat here, but now, because of the plundering of certain people, even a single meal seems luxurious.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Back when her father was still alive, Emily woulde to the restaurant after school, and her father would prepare avish and nutritious dinner for her and her sibling every day.
Nowadays, all of that is gone forever.
Her words made Elia tremble with anger. If it werent for the fact that they were in the grand hall, Elia would have already pointed at the bitchs nose and exploded in anger!
But Elia, being the bossdy here, could only temporarily suppress her anger and gnash her teeth while growling, What do you mean by that? Dont think I dont understand your insinuations!
Although Elia Parker hasnt attended university, she would not tolerate being bullied by others!
I didnt think you wouldnt understand. Emily once again shed a cold smile, ying with a red rose in a water ss on the dining table top before lightlyughing, On the contrary, I meant it for you to hear.
You! Elia was so angry she couldnt speak, and gritted her teeth while ring furiously at Emily.
At this moment, she wanted nothing more than to grab this bitch by the hair and drag her to the corner of the wall for a proper beating!
Whats the matter? I just came to have a meal. Do you have any objections to me? Or is it that youve done something shameful that I know about? Seeing Elia being so mad she couldnt speak, Emily felt an unprecedented thrill!
Thats right; Elia plundered her fathers everything and had the nerve to continue running the business. Why wouldnt she fight back, and why would she let Elia have her way?
You! Are you here to pick a fight today?! Elia couldnt hold back any longer and burst out, angrily pointing at Emily, who sat at the dining table front!
Looking at her twisted face due to anger, Emily secretlyughed in her heart, realizing that theres nothing to fear from Elia and her daughter.
Of course not, Im just here to eat. The more speechless Elia became, the calmer Emily appeared, smiling at her while speaking with a cold tone, Whats the matter, Mr. Linward, is this how you treat your customers?
The volume of their argument grew along with Elias anger. Of course, Emilys voice remained soft, which only served to make Elia even angrier!
You- Unable to hold back any longer, she raised her hand and pped Emilys face fiercely, You little bitch, lets see how you keep up your smug act! Im going to teach you a lesson today!

Along with Elia Parkers shout, many eyes in the Grand Hall gathered around, not understanding what had happened over there. N?v(el)B\\jnn
Why did the always polite Boss Lady suddenly get physical with a little girl today?
Elia Parker initially thought her palm would fiercely p Emily Walkers delicate little face, but when she saw Emily standing in front of her, her expression was somewhat bewildered.
You, let go! With her right hand being firmly grasped by Emily, Elia Parker tried to pull it back but couldnt do so.
It wasnt long ago that she had just endured a p in the face from her own daughter, and today, she could no longer allow her to do whatever she pleased!
As she held Elia Parkers raised wrist, Emilys demeanor changed from a smile to a cold, angry look. ncing at Elia Parker, she squeezed out word by word through clenched teeth, Just because youve snatched everything away doesnt mean you can do whatever you want. Im telling you, one day, Ill definitely make you and your daughter beg for mercy on your knees!
After saying that, Emily fiercely let go of her hand, throwing Elia Parker to the ground.
This scene was just witnessed by Iris Carter who had just entered!
Seeing her mother being thrown to the ground by Emily, her eyes widened, and she immediately ran over, along with a waiter, to help Elia Parker up.
Mother, are you okay? Iris Carter asked while giving Elia Parker a knowing look.
Catching her daughters hint, the originally just embarrassed Elia Parker immediately let out a wail, loudly eximing, Oh! My waist What am I going to do It hurts so much Oh
While supporting her waist with one hand and yelling in pain, Elia Parker managed to draw the attention and whispers of people in the Grand Hall towards Emily.
Look at that girl; she looks so refined, who would have thought her behavior would be so terrible
Exactly, you cant judge a book by its cover
In the Grand Hall, many people were pointing at Emily, feeling indignant about the girls appalling behavior.
But Emily didnt feel even a little ashamed by their stares and whispers because,pared to the actions of Iris and her mother, what she had done was insignificant.
Moreover, she didnt think she had done anything wrong; it was all brought upon by Elia Parkers actions!
Realizing that her mother understood her intentions, Iris secretly smirked and turned around to confront the person who had pushed her mother to the ground!
However, when she turned around and saw Emilys face, she was visibly surprised. How could it be her!?
Could it be that she was the one who had pushed her mother to the ground?
Thinking about this, Iriss anger intensified. She stared at Emily in front of her and yelled, Emily, was it you!?
Emily nced at Elia Parker, who was pretending to be innocent nearby, and couldnt help but admire the drama she had put on. But inparison to the more than ten years she had endured in the Carter family, this was a piece of cake for her.
She turned her head, fearlessly meeting Iriss line of sight.
You pushed my mother down! Iris furiously stared at her and demanded.
As for their mother and daughters acting, Emily found it quite amusing, thinking it was a shame they werent on stage as actors.
She looked at Iris and said, Yes, I did. But it serves her right. If she hadnt tried to hit me, I wouldn-apos;t have done anything to her either.
She had already endured too much, and didnt need to be more restrained now..

Oh, dear Theres no justice, theyre hitting people On the side, Elia Parker was still crying loudly, determined to undermine Emily Walker and maintain her own reputation, even if it meant not doing business today.
Emilys words infuriated Iris Carter to the extreme, as she calcted how to make her pay and teach her the consequences of crossing swords with the mother and daughter.
Excuse me, I want to know why you pushed my mother to the ground!?
Not wanting to engage in a war of words with the mother and daughter any longer, Emily knew she would not win anyway, so it was better to leave quietly and be out of sight.
Turning her head, Emily picked up the small backpack on her seat, preparing to leave through the people who had gathered around.
Hey, do you really think you can just leave after pushing someone? What do you think this ce is? What do you think thew is? Seeing Emily about to leave, Iris quickly grabbed Emilys arm, not intending to let her go that easily!
Seeing her arm being held, Emily looked back, her eyes filled with icy coldness. Thew? Are you sure you want to talk about thew with me?
It was by manipting thew that the mother and daughter had taken away the rice restaurant her father had built up over all those years. She couldnt understand why her father, who had always been loving to her and her little brother, would leave all the property to the two of them.
She only knew that 18 years ago, in order to gain Elia Parkers trust, her father had transferred the ownership of the vi to her name. But for the other properties, her father had never made any will.
Although Emily found that will suspicious, without any evidence she was powerless, and could only watch the Carter Familys assets be someone elses.
What exactly did you and your mother do to take over my fathers assets? Emily looked at Iris and then at Elia.
Because of her sudden words, Elias face instantaneously changed, and for a moment she forgot to act. She could only stare at Emily, worried that she had discovered something.
Compared to Elia, Iris was much moreposed. She looked at Emily and raised a mocking smile. Stop talking nonsense here. Do you want to know the real reason why you didnt inherit the will?
At this, Emily couldnt help but stiffen her face. Was there something else going on in this?
No, there shouldnt be. If there really were other reasons, her father would definitely have told her.
If you want to know the truth, then follow me. With that said, Iris left the ?crowd and walked towards the private room area behind the rice restaurant.
Perhaps to confirm her uneasiness, Emily followed Iris without hesitation, seeing her retreating figure.
The three of them arrived at a VIP private room. The reason Iris changed location instead of speaking in the grand hall was because she knew that if what she was about to say were to be overheard, it might have unnecessary repercussions for the rice restaurant, as well as harm her mother and herself.
What exactly are you trying to say? As soon as they entered the private room, Emily asked coldly.
If it were not absolutely necessary, she wouldnt want to stay a second longer in front of the mother and daughter n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Elia, who had been standing next to her, initially thought Emily had found something out and her heart was uneasy. She couldnt believe her daughter brought this bitch Emily here at this moment..

Iris Carter turned her slender and tall figure, facing Emily Walker. Although a smile was on her lips, the words that followed were deeply sarcastic.
Youve lived in the Carter family for 20 years. Hasnt Father ever told you about your background?
Emily was puzzled, staring at Iris in nk confusion, What?
Youre not Fathers daughter at all. Do you think Father would leave his property to a daughter with no blood rtionship to him? Iris raised a mocking smile, thinking that the lie she had just thought of was absolutely seamless.
Because Father was already dead, and even if Emily didnt believe it, there was no way to prove otherwise. She and her mother could easily hold on to everything in the Carter family.
Emily didnt believe Iriss words, thinking they were like a tall tale.
If anyone had no blood rtionship, it should be Iris. She was Fathers real daughter, and the truth couldnt be false!
Is that what you said to yourwyer back then? Creating a fake identity for me and then trying to seize Fathers property with a gun?
Believe it or not, do you remember your mandarin duck stone? Iris was not afraid that Emily wouldnt believe her, for the only person in this world who could prove her identity was already dead. As long as she made up the story carefully, Emily would have no choice but to doubt her own identity!
Once, I identally overheard mv mother asking Father why only you had the mandarin duck stone, but Wace and I didnt. You know what I heardter? She gazed at the gradually dulling face of Emily.
Father said that the mandarin duck stone was left by her parents. When they found you, the mandarin duck stone was already on you. Do you know what this means?
Listening to Iriss words, Emily was in shock, but she couldnt ept that she wasnt the biological daughter of her parents.
No way! My father said that when my mother found the mandarin duck stone at the seaside back then, it was shortly after I was born. Thats why my mother put the mandarin duck stone on me because of my name! Emily said, somewhat agitated.
She could bear anything, but the one thing she couldnt tolerate was someone saying she wasnt her parents real daughter!
However, Iris sneered, looking at her and said, You believe that? Father hid your identity to avoid making you sad. If you dont believe me, you can ask my mother. Father only told her about this matter.
At that moment, Emily turned her gaze to Elia Parker, who was listening with a puzzled expression on her face.
While Emily had her eyes turned away, Iris once again gave her mother a
meaningful look.
As soon as her daughters eyes caught her attention, the dazed Elia Parker immediately came back to her senses and feigned disapproval, Leanne, didnt I forbid you to keep this matter a secret!?
Whats there to keep secret at this point? Father is already gone, and it doesnt really matter if she knows. Iris crossed her arms and spoke nonchntly.
Emily nced back and forth between the two, her face falling down in mncholy as if pondering something.. Following that, she quickly raised her head, looking at the mother and daughter duo,ughing lightly, Heh, do you think I would believe the fabricated background youve made up? If I truly wasnt Fathers biological daughter, why wouldnt Father tell me himself? If he wanted to hide it, why would he tell you?

Trantor: 549690339
She knew her fathers personality, if he truly wanted to keep a secret, he wouldnt tell anyone.
Upon hearing this, Elia Parker was stunned, unsure of how to continue the conversation for a moment.
I told you, I overheard it identally. Why did my father tell my mother? Because he let it slip, so my mom just questioned him, Iris Carter said.
Yes, yes, I forced it out of him! Hearing her daughter say this, Elia Parker immediately chimed in!
Despite how well she went along with it, the slight panic on Elia Parkers face was clearly seen by Emily Walker. Sheughed, No matter what you say, I wont believe you.
Having said that, she turned to Elia Parker, Are you okay now?
What? Caught off guard by her sudden question, Elia Parker was puzzled and asked in response.
Since youre fine now, may I leave? Not wanting to deal with the mother and daughter duo any longer, Emily Walker turned and walked out of the private room.
The mother and daughter did not react for a while. By the time they snapped back, Emily Walker had already disappeared through the door.
I cant believe we let her go just like that! Iris Carter stomped, ming herself for her momentary panic that had given Emily Walker the upper hand.
Never mind. Although we didnt get to teach her a lesson, Im not hurt either. Next time, well deal with her properly! Elia Parker said with a joyful expression as she approached her daughter. Leanne, youre really so clever! I never thought of such a great strategy. iming she wasnt their real child, that move was just too brilliant!
However, she soon grew worried again, But it seems like she didnt really believe it.
No worries. Even if she isnt convinced, this matter will be a thorn in her heart. As long as she has doubts, I believe she wont investigate the will anymore! Iris Carter confidently spoke, looking at the private rooms entrance.
Thats true. Even if she investigates, theres no solid proof now, so she cant find out the truth! Thinking about this, a smug smile appeared on Elia Parkers face.
Leaving the Rice Restaurant, it was already 9:30 PM. Emily Walker walked under the moonlight-colored streetlights, lost in thought,pletely unaware of the man following behind her.
Baron Stuart had initially just gone to use the restroom, but uponing out, he received a call from Zachary Stuart who was traveling overseas. He ended up speaking for ten-plus minutes before returning to the restaurant, only to find the woman gone.
Just as he was frowning in confusion, he saw the slender figure walk out of the private room area, directly out of the restaurant,pletely ignoring his presence! n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Hey. Feeling too hungry, Baron Stuart decided not to apany her aimless walk any longer, calling out to her.
Still immersed in her thoughts, Emily Walker hesitated before turning around, just noticing this man had been following her since she didnt know when.
Do you have an umbre? he asked.
What? Emily Walker paused, then looked around, only to realize that raindrops had started falling from the sky at some point.
The raindrops grew heavier, and before Emily Walker could react, a sudden heavy downpour drenched her white chiffon blouse.
Having been soaked in this kind of downpour for the first time in his life, Baron Stuart couldnt help but feel extremely upset!
Chapter 52 - 52: What did you bring me here for?
Chapter 52: What did you bring me here for?
Trantor: 549690339
Unable to hold back, she cursed, Shit!
He turned his head, looking annoyed at Emily Walker. Despite his bad mood, he still grabbed her hand and ran in the opposite direction!
Seeing the direction he was pulling her in, Emily asked with some confusion as they ran, Um shouldnt we be running back the way we came?
Wouldnt they be running further away like this?
Ignoring her question, Baron Stuart continued to pull her towards the front without looking back.
However, the rain grew heavier, and it was hard to catch a taxi at this time. If they were to run back to the previous location, it would take over 20 minutes.
After running for about five minutes, they stopped in front of a tall building.
Although raindrops blurred her vision, Emily could still see everything clearly.
Wasnt this the Futuren Group building? Why did he bring her here?
You brought me hereI
You ask too many questions. Before she could finish speaking, Baron Stuart pulled her straight into the Futuren Group building!
The two entered the elevator; despite it being the hot summer, the rainwater that soaked their bodies made them feel slightly cold. Emily couldnt help but shiver a bit.
Seeing Vivian Ferguson shivering next to him, Baron Stuart averted his eyes and saw the outline of her pinkce bra under her soaked white chiffon blouse.
He suddenly looked away, his voice as cold as the rain but mixed with a hint of warmth, Just bear with it for a while.
Although she didnt know where he was taking her, Emily could only follow him for now.
She raised her cold hands to her mouth and let out a breath while watching the floor disy in the elevator, trying her best to warm them up.
Even though Baron Stuart had looked away and deliberately avoided gazing at her soaked body, he could still feel her shivering intensely beside him.
With a ding, the elevator reached the 88th floor. Baron Stuart grabbed her cold hand again and quickly rushed out of the elevator, heading straight for the CEOs office!
Entering a specially designed suite within the office, Baron Stuart let go of her hand and walked towards the cloakroom. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Meanwhile, Emily stood nearby, looking in amazement at the luxurious
decorations of the room. She knew that the man before her was the Crown Prince of the Futuren Corporation, so this office must be his, right?
But why did he bring her here?
What are you bringing me here to do
Go take a bath and change into this. Interrupting her again, Baron Stuart casually tossed a white mens shirt to her.
Emily looked at the mens shirt in her hand, then raised her head to look at the man before her. No need, Im fine.
She refused because she didnt want to take a bath in his room, nor did she want to wear his clothes.
No need? Is this another one of your ways to seduce me? Baron Stuart was already soaked, and the feeling of damp clothes sticking to his body made his mood worse. Seeing the woman before him refuse him only made him more inexplicably irritated.
What? Emilys expression faltered, not understanding what he was saying at all.
Baron Stuart nced at her and looked at her soaked blouse, Dont you think youre tempting me like this? Or have you been waiting for me to do something to you?
Emily frowned, looking confused. Following his gaze, she looked at her upper body, and almost scared herself to death when she saw it!
Thank you for the 1888* 3 reward from my dear friend Xin Di Qian Chang!

In her panic, Emily Walker tightly held the mens shirt to cover her body.
Despite being freezing cold, she felt her cheeks burning hot, as if she was on fire.
How could she have stood in front of him like this for so long?
That shirt is worth 38,000. Are you sure you want to wet it like this? Seeing her panic-stricken and at a loss, Baron Stuart spoke again.
She was already shivering from the cold, so why was she still putting on a strong front?
At his words, Emily was startled and stared at the shirt in her hand, dumbfounded with surprise!
Although her family used to be rtively well-off, she had never owned any clothes worth tens of thousands. She really wanted to know how much money the Futuren Group had, and exactly how many billions Baron Stuart was worth!
Seeing that she was not acting, he narrowed his eyes slightly and stepped forward, approaching her step by step.
The raindrops soaked his delicate shirt, further enhancing his tall and straight figure. The linen-colored hair strands had been wetted by the rainwater and droplets slowly fell from his hair tips onto his wless face, further highlighting his breathtakingly handsome appearance!
Watching as the man approached her one step at a time, Emily looked at him with uneasy eyes, her expression turning tense as he suddenly got closer, and her breathing bing rapid.
What what are you doing? She cautiously moved backward, sneezing.
Seeing her shivering body and the sneeze she just let out, Baron Stuarts face grew darker!
He quickly approached her, reached out and scooped her up in his arms, not waiting for any reaction from her as he headed for the bathroom!
What are you doing? Let me down! It took Emily half a moment to recover from her surprise, struggling to get down from Baron Stuarts embrace.
While holding her icy body, the struggling woman ignited some of Baron Stuarts anger, and he roared, Stop moving or Ill strip you naked! Do you believe me!?
His roar instantly silenced Emilys struggle, clearly scared by his words.
But she still doubted her ears. Did this man just say hed strip her naked!?
Carrying her directly into the bathroom, Baron Stuart quickly let her down. Despite the clothes separating them, both of their bodies were soaked from the rain, leaving them feeling the warmth of their naked skin beneath.
As a very normal man, if he didnt let her go now, he feared the heat within would be hard to control.
After letting her go, Baron Stuart hurriedly left the bathroom and closed the door with a m.
Fortunately, being drenched in the rain, the sensation inside his body didnt overwhelm him.
Staring at the closed bathroom door, Emily stood there in a daze, unable to recover from the shock for a while. It wasnt until she sneezed again that she realized her current miserable state.
After sneezing, Emily couldnt help shivering, feeling colder and colder. N?v(el)B\\jnn
Looking around the bathroom, which was evenrger than her room at the Green Haven Estate, she nced at the mens shirt in her hand. After realizing her surroundings, she went to the shower, turned on the hot water, and tried to warm herself up with the hot water..

Trantor: 549690339
She was freezing cold, if it continued like this, she might catch a cold.
While rinsing her body with warm water that she was used to, she nced and saw the bathtub next to the shower. Looking at the bathtub that was several timesrger than the typical one, Emily Walker couldnt help but be amazed.
Sure enough, being the young master of a rich household, even a bathtub was bigger than the whole bathroom in the ce she used to live in!
Looking at the bathtub filled with warm steam, Emily Walker swallowed, thinking: I wonder what it feels like to soak in there
As she was talking to herself, she didnt notice that her feet had unintentionally lifted up, stepping into the warm bath water.
Huh It was reallyfortable, toofortable.
Emily slowly submerged her whole body into the bath water, breathing out infort, as the hot water seeped into her skin, washing away all her exhaustion, making her feel happier.
Half an hourter, perhaps because she was too tired, or because it was toofortable, Emily Walker unknowingly fell asleep in the bathtub.
Meanwhile, Baron Stuart, who was sitting outside on a single sofa because he felt cold, had draped a thin nket over himself.
However, the rainwater on his body was almost dried up by his body heat, but why hasnt that womane out yet?
Amidst his confusion, Baron Stuart stood up, the thin nket slowly slid down onto the sofa as he got up.
He approached the bathroom, seeming to want to listen for any movement inside, but there was no sound at all, not even the sound of water.
Whats that woman doing?
Hey. Standing by the door, Baron Stuart slowly opened his thin lips, wanting to check if the woman inside was still alive.
After giving a soft call, he still couldnt hear any movement inside.
Knock, knock, knock! Woman! The person inside wasnt answering. For some reason, he felt a bit anxious, If you dont open the door Iming in! In her drowsiness, Emily Walker who was sleeping in the bathtub seemed to hear a maic voice. She opened her eyes in a blurred way and wasnt quite sure where she was.
Hey! The knocking continued, along with the mans increasingly urgent voice.
What!?
After hearing the knocking and the mans shouting, Emily Walker finally regained her consciousness and she let out a silent, internal scream!
Damn it, she had actually fallen asleep!
She hurriedly got up from the bathtub and using a dry towel nearby, she wiped the water off her body. Just as she was turning around, she identally caught a glimpse of the bright red in the bath water which seemed to be fading away with the warm water.
Strange, what was that? Blood? But how could there be blood in the water?
Could she have injured herself somewhere on her body?
Thinking this, Emily subconsciously looked at her own naked body, and with one nce, she waspletely bbergastedn/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
A several drops of bright red liquid slid down her legs. Perhaps because of her movement earlier, a few drops had also sttered onto the floor. Looking at the scene, Emily had a thrown into aplete state of panic, her brows furrowed into a knot.
Period, period, why do you have toe now of all times!
She turned around and saw her soaked clothes. Now she didnt have any clean clothes to change into, the only thing that could cover her body was that mens shirt.
Emily Walker! Not getting a reply from inside, the man standing outside the door seemed to be getting angry and blurted out her name..

He seemed to have heard the sound of water just now, verifying that the woman inside was still alive. But she was ignoring his calls, which inexplicably infuriated him!
The man outside the door seemed very anxious, which only added to Emily Walkers already panicking state, leaving herpletely at a loss.
In her panic, she hastily put on the mens shirt, then took the towel she had just used to wipe her body and wiped off the few red drops on the floor.
Just as she finished wiping and was preparing to stand up, the bathroom door was forcefully pulled open!
She looked somewhat terrified at the side of the door, where a tall, oppressive figure was standing upright. It made Emily gasp, at a loss for what to say.
Seeing her standing unscathed before him, the anxiety in Baron Stuarts heart dissipated, leaving only fury!
He growled, Have you gone mute!?
What, what? Emily Walker was bewildered.
I called you- His voice abruptly halted, when Baron Stuarts gaze unintentionally flicked to the towel in her hand, clearly seeing the red blood stain on it.
His heart sank subconsciously, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, he nced minutely at her body and asked, Whats wrong with you?
Noticing his gaze, Emily panicked inside; instinctively she hid the blood-stained towel behind her, I, Im fine!
However, her movement undeniably gave Baron Stuart an unobstructed view of her fair, slender legs.
Undeniably her appearance was very enticing at the moment. The white shirt, wet strands of hair, had surprisingly made such a in woman appear tremendously sexy!
Although hed seen her body thoroughly by now, why would he experience such a familiar sensation?
His Adams apple slid a little, Baron Stuart lightly pursed his thin lips, averting his gaze, not looking at her provocative dress.
As soon as youre done washing, leave. I need to use the bathroom. Even though his voice was very light, there was still a hint of hoarseness in it.
Emily looked at him. Because she was somewhat panicked inside, she didnt know whether to leave or not for a moment.
The reason she didnt want to leave was because she was wearing only a shirt from head to toe, and since she was menstruating, even though her underwear was wet, she had to put it on before she could leave.
But if she didnt leave, she didnt know how to ask him to go out. Should she say, can you go out? I need to change my underwear?
That wont work! Thats too embarrassing!
After waiting for about a minute, seeing her still not moving, Baron Stuart squinted slightly, Not leaving? Do you want to shower with me?n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
A deep, rich voice broke Emilys contemtion. She instinctively raised her head, her gaze appearing somewhat flustered due to nervousness, No, not at all!
Even though she said so verbally, she did not move her feet. Baron Stuart just kept looking at her silently, waiting for her next move.
Noticing his expression, Emily was brought back to reality, and awkwardly said, Um, I, Im a bit ufortable right now, could youleave for a moment
Emilys voice gradually dimmed, burying her face lower and lower, all she could think of was digging a hole to hide in!
As if he hadnt heard what she said clearly, Baron Stuart frowned slightly,

Hearing this, Baron Stuarts expression faltered for a moment before he turned his head to look at her discarded wet clothes nearby, frowning slightly.
Could it be that this woman wanted to wear those soaked clothes? Has she gone mad?
Baron Stuart didnt respond, but instead walked directly towards the wet clothes that could be wrung out. He then picked them up and carried them out of the bathroom!
Seeing her clothes being taken away without exnation, Emily Walker was shocked and followed after him, Hey, what are you doing!?
Baron Stuart walked straight to the trash can, then stretched out his hand to throw all the clothes into it!
At the sight of this, Emily Walker cried out in surprise, rushing over as she shouted, My clothes! She then red at him furiously, What do you think youre doing!?
Isnt this shirt youre wearing originally intending to say she could just wear his shirt, but as Baron Stuart looked at her while speaking, he caught a glimpse of something red on the inside of her pale leg
At this sight, Baron Stuart waspletely dumbstruck.
Feeling that his expression was somewhat strange, Emily Walker was puzzled too, but she started feeling a cold liquid gradually running down between her legs
Half a secondter, she snapped back to her senses, embarrassment overtaking her expression. Spinning around, she dashed into the bathroom, forcefully shut the door, bam! and locked it!
To ensure she felt even more secure, she leaned her body against the door. This should add an extrayer of safety!
Still frozen in ce, it took Baron Stuart half a moment to recover, his expression now somewhat unnatural.
So this woman
Dammit, he doesnt have any womens clothes here, and he certainly doesnt have that thing she needs right now!
Baron Stuart looked up at the firmly closed bathroom door; it was already almost 11 0clock at night, and he didnt know whether the supermarket next to the Company had closed yet.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
As he usually didnt shop in the evening, he wasnt too certain about the closing times of the shopping mall and known supermarkets.
Thinking of the flustered, helpless expression the woman in the bathroom might be wearing, he left the room without hesitation.
The heavy rain outside continued, and the shop disys on both sides of the street had shut early due to the strong winds and torrential downpour. Still, Baron Stuart seemed to have no intention of giving up, as he set off running towards arge supermarket not far from the Futuren Group.
He remembered that yton Howard had mentioned that this supermarket closed at o oclock every night.
When he left, he hadnt taken an umbre, so by the time he reached the supermarket front entrance, his shirt, which had just dried from his body heat, was once again soaked through.
He raised his head and happened to see a waiter inside preparing to close the store.
Feeling urgent, Baron Stuart rushed over and grabbed the hand of the waiter who was about to lock the door!
The waiter was clearly startled by having his hand grabbed suddenly in the dead of night, turning his head with a frightened expression, wondering if he had encountered a robber in this stormy night!
But as he turned around, he saw an extremely handsome face!
Although his xen hair strands were shocked by the rainwater, his sculpted face had not been diminished in the slightest!
I need to buy something. Baron Stuart spoke, perhaps too urgently. His grip on the waiters hand tightened a little.
Noticing his deep ck pupils, the waiter shyly lowered his face, whispering,
Okay..

Only when the waiter let go of the door lock did Baron Stuart rx and release her hand.
Entering the supermarket, because it wasrge, Baron Stuart didnt know for a while where the womans products could be found.
But it he were to search tor it one location at a time, who knows when he would find it.
Thinking about the woman who was still in the bathroom in the room, he didnt care much and turned to the waiter who was following him, Where do you have the womens stuff?N?v(el)B\\jnn
What? The waiter was stunned, thinking he had heard wrong.
Sanitary napkins and the clothes you wear inside. He really couldnt say the word underwear.
But upon hearing his words, the waiter was even more stunned, looking at him in disbelief.
Maybe it was because of the waiters reaction that Baron Stuart felt inexplicably annoyed and embarrassed. He really regretted going out to buy these things for that woman!
At this thought, he wanted to turn around and leave, but just as he turned, he suddenly stopped, thought about it, gritted his teeth and turned back to the waiter, Its for my girlfriend. Shes not able toe out right now.
Finally, the waiter understood!
Embarrassedlyughing, Okay, please follow me.
So he was buying it for his girlfriend, no wonder, she thought she hade across a pervert. It would be such a pity if such a handsome guy were a pervert, thankfully he wasnt.
But upon thinking that he was buying for his girlfriend, the waiter felt a little empty inside and somewhat disappointed.
What kind of? After saying that, the waiter realized she might have spoken incorrectly, hurriedly correcting herself, Uh, I mean, what type does your girlfriend like?
Looking at the various womens products in front of him, Baron Stuart felt a bit awkward for the first time in his life. He averted his gaze and said, I dont know, this He pointed at the underwear on the shelf, Take one of each color. And for that
He paused, looked at the female waiter, What kind do you use every time?
His casual question left the waiter stunned and her face full of embarrassment. After a while, she shyly spoke, If you want something cleaner, then get this kind.
As she spoke, she shyly lowered her head and reached out to pick a pack of sanitary napkins from the shelf.
Lets go with this one. Baron Stuart didnt want to dwell on these awkward things any longer; the sooner he bought them, the sooner he could leave!
In the bathroom, it had been half an hour since Emily Walker rushed in. Now, she could only sit on the toilet, not even daring to get up!
Her cell phone was also outside. If only she could call Gabrie Teddy to help bring her clothes and stuff.
At this rate, she really didnt know how long she would have to stay here.
Knock knock knock! Just when she was at a loss and full of sadness, the bathroom door was knocked on again, causing her whole body to tremble, and her nerves to tense up!
Open the door. Baron Stuarts voice sounded from outside the door.
But Emily Walker had no intention of obediently opening the door.
After waiting for a moment and seeing no movement inside, Baron Stuart calmly inserted the key into the bathroom door lock, turned it gently, and the door opened.
Despite being locked from the inside, the door was suddenly opened by someone. Emily Walker, who was sitting on the toilet, subconsciously jumped up, looking terrified at the doorway!
Dears, dont forget to add the book to your bookshelf or favorites after reading!

You, you What was he up to? She was already embarrassed enough, so why did he have to barge in like that?
Baron Stuart didnt say anything. Instead, he threw the paper bag he was holding to her, then turned around and left expressionlessly.
Emily Walker looked at the paper bag in her hand with surprise, and looked back at the door that had been closed once again, feelingpletely puzzled.
With a confused heart, Emily opened the beige paper bag, inside were two packs of sanitary cotton and several sets of underwear.
She looked surprised at the contents of the paper bag, then looked back at the bathroom door, thinking: Did he go out to buy these things for her just now?
But hes a man
Thinking of a man going to buy womens stuff, Emily couldnt help but feel that it was an extremely embarrassing thing!
As for this man, she suddenly realized that he was not a cold person, maybe in his inner world, there was a side to him that he didnt want others to know.
After about ten more minutes, Emily changed into a set of light purple underwear and walked out of the bathroom.
As expected, she felt much morefortable wearing underwear. Otherwise, if she only wore a shirt, she would feelpletely exposed.
Once dressed, she walked out with the paper bag, and as she raised her eyes, she saw the man soaked all over, sitting on the sofa. Seeing his wet hair, Emily
was somewhat surprised.
Looking outside at the storm raging, she thought, he must have gotten soaked again when he went out to help her buy things earlier.
Um the bathroom is avable now, you can
Before Emily finished speaking, she saw the tall man on the sofa get up and walk past her directly into the bathroom.
Thinking about how she had taken up so much time in the bathroom while the man outside was soaked and waiting for her, Emily felt a bit guilty.
Looking at the time, it was already midnight. She went to the window and looked out, the rainstorm still raging outside. How would she get home at this time of night?
Thinking about this, Emilys face became somewhat heavy, as she turned around and looked at the luxury room.
Half an hourter, Baron Stuart walked out of the bathroom, but at this moment, his face was slightly gloomy, as if he was in a bad mood.
He left the bathroom without saying a word, went straight to the bed, lifted the bedding, and got in, disregarding the confused Emily in the room.
What should she do? Should she leave now? But its still raining outside, and she cant go out in these clothes, can she?
But the man on the bed seemed to have no intention of letting her stay the night.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Looking at the man lying motionless under the bedding on the bed, Emily lowered her head, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Forget it, lets just find her wet clothes, change back into them, and leave.
With that thought, Emily went to the trash can again, trying to find the clothes that he had thrown away earlier.
Baron Stuart, who had been lying in bed with his eyes closed, seemed to sense the sound of things being rummaged in the room. He raised his head subconsciously and looked over, seeing the clueless woman rummaging through the trash again!
What was the matter with this woman? Wasnt she afraid of getting dirty?
Seeing her rummaging through the trash, Baron Stuarts already bad mood grew even worse.. He suddenly got up from the bed, grabbed the entire trash can, and quickly walked outside!

Emily Walker was somewhat stunned by his sudden approach, and by the time she came to her senses, Baron Stuart had already disappeared at the room entrance!
With a slightly dyed realization, she got up and quickly followed him, but as she reached the door, Baron Stuart returned, his displeasure clearly evident on his face.
Upon entering the room, he didnt look at Emily, but went straight back to the bed!
Looking at the man who had just entered the room, and then at the spot where he had joined her, she felt a surge of anxiety inside.
Hey, where have you thrown my clothes? Emily asked, a bit annoyed. Without clothes, she couldnt leave.
But what was going on with this man, what was it about her clothes that upset him?N?v(el)B\\jnn
There was no response from the man on the bed.
Hey, my clothes!
Seeing that he was unresponsive, Emily got angry. She quickly dashed to the window and continued to shout, What the hell is going on! Without those clothes, I cant leave this-
Could you please keep it down!
Before Emily finished her sentence, she saw the man in the bed suddenly sit up. His gaze was filled with anger, and she was obviously startled, abruptly falling silent, standing there and staring at him.
Seeing that she had finally quieted down, Baron Stuarty back down.
He was feeling terrible right now and whenever he felt this way, his mood worsened.
But, without clothes I Ah Seeing the raised quilt, Emily whispered, because she needed to know where her clothes were so she could leave.
But before she finished her sentence, she felt a hand swiftly grab her arm, pulled her onto the bed, and dragged her right under the quilt!
What are you doing! When she came to, Emily tried to struggle and get up.
But the unknown man pinned her small body tight with his arms and showed no intention of letting her go. His thin lips parted slightly, his eyes remained closed, and his voice sounded weak, Im so tired, cant you just lie quietly?
Even though he had no intention of dealing with this woman, her constant chatter forced him to intervene.
Feeling a strange breath rushing towards her, with a faint smell of shower gel, and especially the warmth radiating from his cheeks, Emilys heart throbbed wildly.
Since Baron Stuart had no intention of letting go, she didnt struggle either, just lying there on his chest, neither talking nor daring to close her eyes, as if she was afraid that something would happen as soon as she closed her eyes.
Of course, mainly because she was so nervous, she couldnt close her eyes!
The night deepened, and gradually, Emily started feeling the mans steady breathing. Slowly, she too fell asleep.
After a night of rain, the next morning was bright and sunny. Despite the sweltering summer weather, Emily felt increasinglyfortable in bed, without a hint of the lingering heat.
She even felt a bit sleepy, aware that she was awake but not willing to open her eyes.
Um what a soft bed let her sleep a little longer!
Wait a minute! A strong sense of alertness came over her, and Emily woke up immediately and looked around, taking in the luxury of the room.
God, what was the time?
She looked at the time and it was already 9:30 in the morning!
God, how could she sleep until sote?
In a hurry, Emily got up from the bed, headed to the bathroom, and finished washing up in ten minutes..

When she went to leave with her small backpack, she suddenly realized her current attire and was filled with countless worries!
She looked around the room and saw that Young Lord had already left, but how was she supposed to leave now?
With a puzzled heart, Emily Walker gradually approached the front door of the room, opened it slightly, and peeked outside.
Inside the CEOs office, the secretary knocked on the door at this moment and handed a file to Baron Stuart, Boss, this is the document needed for the uing meeting. Please take a look at it.
Handing over the document to Baron Stuart, the secretary retreated to one side and patiently waited.
But under normal circumstances, urgent information would be reviewed by the boss first; however, today
ncing at the indifferent boss, the secretary cautiously made another attempt, Boss, about that document
Baron Stuart looked up at the female secretary, with his eyebrows slightly furrowed due to difort. He quickly skimmed the document and then handed it to the secretary, Go and prepare it.
Alright. The secretary took the document and left.
After she left, Baron Stuart put down the work in his hand, got up and walked over to the sofa ced nearby. He sat down, leaned his head back on the sofa, and his expression did not look very well.
He wanted to close his eyes and rest for a while, but the ringing of the cellphone not far away interrupted him.
Emily had been standing at the door, and suddenly, her cellphone in her bag rang, startling her. She hurriedly took out her cell phone after ncing at Baron Stuart on the sofa. It was Gabrie Teddy who called.
Looking at the woman standing at the door, Baron Stuarts mood was still not very good, so he ignored her and continued to close his eyes and rest.
Emily hung up the phone, and after looking around the spacious office, she wanted to go out, but was afraid that someone might suddenly enter the office.
Without my permission, they wouldnt dare toe in. As if he sensed her thoughts, Baron Stuart suddenly spoke up, seemingly guessing her inner concerns.
At his words, Emily hesitated for a moment, then slowly walked out of the room.
Fortunately, the mens shirt was quiterge, and when she wore it, it looked like an extra-long dress that covered everything it needed to. Of course, she didnt dare to sit down for fear that her exposure would happen upon sitting.
Um, Im going to bete to work
Just wait a little longer. Baron Stuart kept his eyes closed and leaned his head against the back of the sofa.
Emily was somewhat confused, not knowing what he meant by waiting a little longer, and could only stare at him nkly.
Do you really want to go to work dressed like this? Seeing her silent, Baron Stuart finally opened his eyes and looked at her as he spoke.
Of course not. Emily told the truth, Ive already asked Gabrie to bring me some clothes.
Hearing that, Baron Stuart couldnt help but smile, looking at her, Do you think your friend can get in here?
How could an ordinary person enter this ce? Let alone his office, even the grand entrance of Futuren Group couldnt be entered without permission.
But Emily obviously hadnt thought about this and looked at him in surprise, What are you saying? My friend cante in?
What should she do about her clothes?
Knock, knock, knock!
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, scaring Emily as her eyes widened, staring nervously at the buzzing office door, looking lost for a moment.
Young Lord. yton Howards voice sounded from outside the door..
Chapter 61 - 61: Falling Ill 4

Trantor: 549690339
Upon hearing that, Baron Stuart nced at the flustered Emily Walker and then spoke, Come in.
After getting permission, yton Howard walked in, but the scene before him was obviously a bit bewildering.
Early in the morning, when the Young Master asked him to prepare a womans clothes for the office, he thought it was strange, not expecting it to be Lady
Carter here.
But, why would Lady Carter be here so early in the morning?
Seeing yton suddenly enter, Emily lowered her head in embarrassment, her hands tightly gripping the hem of her white shirt.
From the moment yton entered, Baron Stuart had been watching him, so up until now, he noticed that yton had been staring at the woman in front of him without shifting his gaze!
Have you seen enough? Baron Stuart spoke up, his displeasure apparent and voice cold as ice, causing yton to snap back to his senses quickly.
Hurrying to the tea table beside the sofa, he set down the paper bag in his hand, Young Lord, here are the clothes you requested. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Baron Stuart nced at the clothes in his hand and then emotionlessly said, You can go now.
yton nodded, and then left.
Your clothes are here. He nced at Emily, who was holding her head, and Baron Stuart spoke calmly.
Emily was startled by his words and slowly raised her head to look at Baron
Stuart, then at the paper bag on the tea table.
Could it be that what he meant by waiting a while was this?
But, she didnt understand why he would always whenever she was in an awkward situation.
Was she overthinking it?
Thank you. Emily thanked him, went to pick up the paper bag, and headed towards the rxation room.
Opening the paper bag, she found a sky-blue short fashion top and a pair of capri jeans inside.
Although she didnt pick the clothes herself, Emily quite liked them and wondered how much this outfit cost.
Flipping open the clothes, Emily discovered that the price tags were still attached, so she turned them over to look.
The total for both items was 580 USD, thankfully not too expensive.
After changing into the clothes, Emily walked out of the room, holding a paper bag and wearing her small backpack on her back, and came up to Baron Stuart.
She gently put the paper bag on the tea table and said, Thank you for buying me these clothes. These are the ones you boughtst night and theres still a lot left.
She only needed the sanitary cotton temporarilyst night, and wouldnt need it once she got home, and she also had baby clothes at home, so she didnt need to take these back either.
Baron Stuart looked at the paper bag she left behind, pondering who she nned to leave it for?
He looked up with a slightly displeased expression, If you dont need it, take it to throw away yourself.
After saying that, he stood up and walked towards his office desk without looking back, and quickly immersed himself in work.
Watching his retreating figure, Emily hesitated about what to do. If they were thrown away, it would be a waste.
After some contemtion, unwilling to throw them away, Emily decided to pick them back up, reasoning that if they needed to be thrown away, she might as well take them home.
Gathering the stuff, Emily turned around and looked at the office desk, nning to say her farewells before leaving.
However, as soon as she turned around, she saw the man at the office desk with his hands supporting his forehead, looking quite ufortable.
She approached, and somehow started to worry, Whats wrong with you?
Baron Stuart remained silent; he was truly tired, so tired that he didnt want to talk anymore.
But the more he didnt speak, the more Emily wanted to know what was wrong with him!

She walked with a light step, slowly moving towards the office desk. It seemed that sincest night, he had looked quite ufortable.
And this morning when she got up, she also noticed that his face seemed a little different than before.
Are you feeling unwell somewhere? Emily Walker approached him and tentatively asked.
Baron Stuart remained silent and didnt lift his head. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Seeing that he still wasnt answering, Emilv didnt know if he was asleeD or what, and she slowly extended her own hand, gradually getting closer to his cheek.
At this touch, even Baron felt her cold hand and instinctively raised his head, looking at her with a puzzled expression.
As he raised his head, Emily quickly withdrew her hand because of the burning heat on his cheek, looking at him shocked, You you seem to be sick.
Baron narrowed his eyes. He also felt a bit ufortable, but he was more curious about why the woman in front of him stretched her hand to feel his face.
Upon touching the burning temperature on his cheek, Emily understood immediately.
It must have been him getting drenched in the rain several timesst night and then sitting on the sofa with his clothes soaked through. In the sweltering summer, it would be strange for him not to have a fever after experiencing such temperature differences.
Seeing her nervous look, Baron was very puzzled but didnt say anything, just staring at her directly.
Do you have any cold and fever medicine here? Seeing his face getting worse, Emily asked subconsciously.
No. He rarely got sick since he was a child and didnt need those medicines.
Emily nodded her head after hearing this, seemingly pondering something. After a moment, she raised her head, turned around, and said to him, Wait here. Ill go buy some medicine for you.
After putting the things in her hands back on the tea table, Emily left the office without hesitation.
He always helped her during her difficult moments, so it was time for her to return the favor.
Sitting at the secretarys position at the entry hall of the CEOs office, the female secretary looked up and saw a womaning out of the office, which inevitably surprised her.
Since she started working, no woman had ever entered her bosss office until now. But how could this woman havee out from inside?
Did she enter before they started work? But who is she? Why would she enter the CEOs office outside of working hours?
A series of questions arose in the female secretarys mind who couldnt figure out who this mysterious woman was that came out of the office.
Because as far as she knew, the only woman rted to her boss was Cam Walker, who had just recently gotten engaged to him. But clearly, the woman just now was not her.
So who could it be? They had never heard of their boss having any scandals or mysterious women in his life.
Inside the office, Baron felt his head getting heavier and heavier, so he got up from his desk and chose to lie down on the sofa for a while.
ncing at the paper bag on the tea table, he couldnt help but secretly criticize: Did that woman really go to buy medicine for him?
His heavy eyelids made him not want to specte on whether it was true or not; hey down on the sofa and began to close his eyes and rest.
He didnt know how long it had been when he felt the office door being pushed open, but his heavy eyelids made him decide not to open his eyes and continue to keep them closed.
Cam Walker entered the office and immediately saw Baron Stuart lying on the sofa..

Her lips curled into a seemingly innocent smile, thinking he was asleep, she tiptoed closer to the sofa.
As if chiseled by a sculptor, an impably gorgeous face, matched by a desirable figure, appealing appearance, impressive family background and formidable influenceall these features made this man in front of her a paragon of the world, which utterly enraptured Cam Walker.
Since she was a child, she had been dreaming of bing his bride. Nowadays, her dream had finallye true.
Faintly bending over before the sofa, Cam yearned to move a bit closer, to observe more clearly the exquisitely appealing features of this man in front of her.
This exceptional man was hers; no matter the cost, she would never let any woman have him.
While enchanted by his captivating good looks, Cam slightly raised her lips, she slowly leaned down, intending to kiss Baron Stuarts sensually enticing thin lips.
Her rosy lips slowly approached, making Baron Stuart, who had been closing his eyes, slightly flutter his eyshes because of the scented lip gloss.
He initially thought it was her that was back. However, as he remembered, she didnt seem to use lipstick or anything of that sort.
Just as Baron Stuart was going to open his eyes out of curiosity, the office door was pushed open.
Emily Walker swung the door open in a flustered rush and dashed straight in,
Your medicine was purchased, quickly take itC
When she caught sight of the scene in front of her, her voice abruptly stopped; she stood staring, dumbstruck.
Originally assuming she was about to kiss him squarely, she didnt expect a sudden interruption, spoiling her chances! n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
The man who had been pretending to be asleep on the sofa by now also opened his eyes, looking towards Emily at the front door. He saw her holding a small white bag, which contained a few differently sized boxes.
Cam turned her head and looked surprised when she saw who had arrived.
Very soon, her once content face instantly turned unpleasant. She stood up ring at Emily, her lips curving into a scornful, cold smile. She said in a hard tone, Is seducing someone elses fiance your profession?
This woman keepsing after Baron Stuart time and time again, even daring to pursue her Cams man. Did she now take herself too seriously?
Looking at Emily across from her, Cam was frustrated and made a decision deep down that no matter what, she would chase this annoying woman away from Baron Stuart!
She spoke confidently, leaving Emily at the door speechless for a while.
She knew that the woman in front of her was that mans fiancee. Perhaps from the beginning, she should have stayed away from this man to avoid gaining such an unfair reputation.
She calmed her emotions, dismissive of Cams words. Walking to the tea table, she put down the small white bag, nced at the man who had just sat up from the sofa, and then softly said, The medication is here, take it once in the morning and again in the evening.
Having said that, Emily picked up the paper bag that she had previously ced on the tea table. She then turned to Cam on the side, spoke evenly but assertively, I am a waitress by profession, and besides, I have never thought of seducing your fiance. Ie here only to collect my stuff.
Having said that, Emily picked up the paper bag and small backpack, wanting to turn around and leave.
However, Cam wasnt willing to let it go so easily.. She saw her lips curl into a chuckle, her tone filled with sarcasm, A waitress? Particrly serving men in bed?

Trantor: 549690339
Hearing this, Emily Walker, who was about to turn around and leave, stopped in her tracks, and her hand clutching the small paper bag tightened slightly.
Although her stepmother and aunt had insulted and humiliated her before, none of them had ever trampled on her dignity as much as Cam Walker did, making her feel utterly worthless.
She turned around, looked at Cam Walker, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly, Yes, youd better keep a close eye on your fiance. Who knows, maybe one day Ill be serving him in bed. What do you think?
After saying this, Emily sneered coldly, nced at Cam Walker, and turned to leave.
Since she was already destined to be saddled with this unfounded usation, there was no point in trying to exin.
But her wordspletely enraged Cam Walker, who saw her anger re as she took a step forward and yanked at the small paper bag in Emilys hand, causing the underwear and two bags of sanitary cotton to spread out messily!
Looking at the scattered womens items on the floor, Cam Walkers eyes widened in shock!
Then, she sneered and looked up at Emily, Ha! Is this your way of seducing men? You even brought this kind of stuff!?
Thinking of the possibility that this woman might appear in front of Baron Stuart wearing such sexy and seductive underwear, Cam Walker couldnt contain her anger, wishing she could tear off her skin and y her alive!
Looking at the items scattered on the floor, Emily ignored Cam Walker and squatted down to pick them up.
Cant you hear me talking to you!? Seeing her ignoring herself, Cam Walker became even angrier, walked up, and fiercely lifted her right foot, then stepped on the underwear Emily was about to pick up without hesitation!
Seeing the item being stepped on, Emily had no choice but to let go and reach for another set, but as soon as she extended her hand, Cam Walkers foot stomped down on it again, Im talking to you! Did your parents never teach you the basic manners!?
Cam Walker remained self-righteous, her anger clearly visible on her face.
But it was this sentence that finally caused the long-suffering Emily topletely explode!
She could stand anything anyone said about her, but she couldnt tolerate anyone insulting her deceased parents!
Emily quickly stood up and yelled at Cam Walker, who was standing in front of her, What do you want from me!?
p! A loud pnded heavily on Emilys left cheek, and for a moment, she felt a burning sensation, as if she had been scorched.
Baron Stuart, who had been sitting on the sofa all this time, clearly didnt expect Cam Walker to actually hit someone and couldnt help but stand up, his displeasure deepening. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Emily, taken aback by the p, looked at Cam Walker with wide eyes.
Get out. A deep voice sounded, and Baron Stuart suppressed the anger in his heart, his face cold as ice.
For a moment, the two women didnt know who he was asking to leave and both turned their heads to look at the cold-faced man.
After half a moment, Baron Stuart finally raised his head slowly, his gaze falling on Cam Walker.
Upon encountering his chilly pupils, Cam Walkers heart sank, unable to believe that he was asking her to leave.
Stuart, are you asking me
Get out before I lose my temper, Baron Stuart said coldly, cutting her off.
Cam Walker stared wide-eyed, unable to believe the reality before her, How can you do this to me! Im your fiancee!
You wont leave? ncing at Cam Walker, Baron Stuart strode over to his office desk and pressed an inte button. Send security up..

Trantor: 549690339
Watching him press the inte and speak, Cam Walkers face was filled with disbelief. Wasnt she his fiance?
Why, why did he ask her to leave in front of another woman, even calling security toe over?
All of this was due to the woman in front of her, it was all her fault!
Thinking of this, Cam Walker turned her gaze and stared at Emily Walker. Her pupils were filled with anger and jealousy. One day, she would make this woman pay double for the humiliation she had suffered today!
Soon, security knocked on the door and entered.
Boss. The two bodyguards bowed deeply to Baron Stuart as they walked in.
Baron Stuart raised his head and looked at Cam Walker.
Baron, youll regret how you treated me one day! After saying that, Cam Walker turned around and walked straight to the office entrance, past the two security guards.
Once Cam Walker and the two security guards left, Emily crouched down and continued to pick up the scattered stuff on the ground.
Baron walked over and saw the clear finger marks on her face, feeling annoyed that she hadnt fought back.
Are you an idiot? She hit you, and you didnt even fight back!?
Emily ignored him, instead continuing to pick up everything from the ground, trying to suppress the tears that were still swirling in her eyes.
From the day she got close to this man, she thought she could seize the opportunity to get close to the heir of Futuren Group and ask him to help her find the culprit who hurt her little brother.
But she didnt expect that he already had a fiance, and that she had unwittingly be the third party who seduced him.
Nowadays, she had no reason to have any further involvement with this man. Her brother had already woken up, and she didnt need any of that so-called revenge anymore, whether it was Elia Parker and her daughter or the person who had hurt her brother, she didnt want to think about it anymore.
She only wanted to live an ordinary life with her brother, no longer entangled in a web of hatred.
After picking up all the stuff, Emily stood up and faced Baron, Give me your bank ount number, Ill transfer the rent to you after receiving my sry every month.
Baron looked at her, his eyes slightly narrowed, What?
In order to avoid your fiances misunderstanding, Ill keep an eye on myself from now on. As long as youre around, I will absolutely not set foot there.
She said it with a firm tone, not even ncing at Baron, and what she said made him inexplicably feel very annoyed! n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
What did she mean by absolutely not setting foot wherever he was?
Do you want to cut ties with me? He lowered his head to look at her, his deep eyes revealing an aura of mystery that was hard to decipher.
Emily didnt answer, but kept her head down, as if consenting silently.
Her silence only made Baron even more displeased. He raised his gaze and smiled faintly, Well then, Im afraid youll have to move off this.
His inexplicable words finally made Emily look up, her expression puzzled as she asked, What?
Didnt you say that you absolutely wont set foot wherever I am? Im standing on this Earth, so go ahead and leave. Baron spoke dismissively. There were many ces in Ennd that belonged to Futuren Corporation, and he was curious how this woman nned to set boundaries with him.
Emily looked at him, finding his words both infuriating and amusing but unable toe up with a rebuttal, she could only grit her teeth and re at him!

You really are Im not referring to the, I meant any ce where you can see me, Id rather take a detour!
Emily Walker was so angry that she was speechless. She picked up the paper bag and turned to head for the office door without paying him any attention! Just how high is this mans IQ? How could he construe her words to something to do with a?
Just how high is Baron Stuarts IQ? If Emily Walker actually knew, she would probably be stunned!
Watching two womene out of the CEOs office in quick session, the female secretary waspletely baffled. Emily Walker, the older miss of the Walker Family, should be the legitimate wife, so why was she the one escorted out by security?
Then who is this mysterious woman? The CEOs mistress? Isnt the difference between her status and treatment too stark!
As soon as Emily Walker left the office, she bumped into a well-built man!
Im sorry, excuse me. She nced at the man she had bumped into, apologized, and without thinking further, she turned and walked towards the elevator door.
Watching the unfamiliar womaning out of Baron Stuarts office, Leonardo Bryson had a moment of surprise on his face.
Because, if this woman is Baron Stuarts client, going by her dress and demeanor she clearly doesnt seem to be a businesswoman, but rather a regr college student.
As Emily Walker was indeed a college student, and the clothes that yton Howard sent her today had a slightly clear, hence giving Emily Walker a hint of innocence.
What Leonardo Bryson couldnt figure out though, was why was a girl who seemed like a college studenting out of Baron Stuarts office?
Moreover, looking at her when she just came out, it seemed like she had a dispute with the person inside, which aroused Leonardo Brysons curiosity even more.
Once she left Futuren Groups tower building, Gabrie Teddy from across immediately came over and hugged Emily Walker in anguish, Emily, you finally came out!
Gabrie? Seeing the flustered and exasperated Gabrie in front of her, Emily Walker was slightly stunned and thought something had happened, Whats wrong?
You still have the nerve to ask whats wrong, Im here to deliver some stuff to you, but they didnt let me in! She had originally nned to take a good look at the renowned Futuren Group, but didnt expect that she would only be able to reach the reception hall. The beauty at the reception desk wouldnt let her go upstairs to find anyone!
Thinking of how the reception beauties had looked her up and down, Gabrie Teddy felt extremely ufortable. They clearly saw her as beneath them!
Thank you Gabrie, I already have clothes now, sorry you had to make a wasted trip. Emily Walker felt nothing but guilt for Gabries wasted trip.
Looking at Emily Walkers outfit, Gabrie Teddys eyes clearly held surprise. Even though Emily Walker was not wearing any major brand, her clothes were definitely boutique pieces.
Where did you get these clothes? She was really curious, And what were you doing in Futuren Group? It was only now that Gabrie Teddy remembered that she had a ton of questions for Emily Walker.
Its nothing. Emily didnt want to discuss her dealings with Baron Stuart, so she casually deflected the question and turned to walk towards the bus station.
But Gabrie Teddys curiosity got the better of her, and she rushed up to Emily and continued asking, Oh, and how are you acquainted with the handsome guy who came looking for you yesterday? He looked really rich.
Which one? Emily was utterly puzzled.. Had people beening to the store to look for her?n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Yeah! Gabrie Teddy nodded nkly, and then said with a curious look, Do you really know that handsome guy? Who is he? Whats his name? As she spoke, Gabrie Teddy suddenly lowered her head and thought, I seem to have seen that handsome guy somewhere
Alright, lets hurry to the store, or well get scolded by the store manager. Not wanting to continue entwining with Gabrie Teddy, Emily Walker walked towards the bus station at a faster pace.
Hey, Emily, wait for me Gabrie Teddy quickly followed, and the two headed for the bus station together.
For the next few days, Emily Walker continued to work at the milk tea shop as usual, and took on some temporary jobs in the evenings when she was off work.
Today was the weekend, and the store was a bit busier than usual.
Most of the customers who came here were students, and of course, some office workers as well.
Its here, this ce has really good milk tea! Outside the store, Be Stuart was pulling a mans arm, heading straight for Coco Milk Tea Shop!n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Isnt this the ce you little girls like to go? Leonardo Bryson looked at the signboard in front of him and spoke indifferently.
What little girls, I am already an adult, I will be 18 years old next month! Be Stuart was clearly dissatisfied with Leonardo Brysons title for her.
Because she didnt want to be a little girl, especially in front of him, Leonardo Bryson!
Seeing her somewhat angry appearance, Leonardo Bryson patted her head, Yes, you are already an adult, but you still have to call me brother, as it is polite.
No, I dont want to be your sister! After saying that, Be Stuart didnt hold him anymore but walked towards the milk tea shop with an unhappy expression.
As for her sudden displeasure, Leonardo Bryson saw everything and quickly followed.
Be Stuart found a seat by the window and sat down, and soon, Emily Walker came over, What would you like to order, please?
Hearing this familiar voice, Be Stuart, who was still angry, frowned slightly, then looked up at Emily Walker.
Why is it you!? Why was it her, the woman she had bumped into!
Seeing Be Stuart, Emily Walker also looked somewhat surprised, but as it was her working hours, she didnt say much and just politely greeted with a smile, Hello.
Looking at her maid-like uniform, Be Stuart looked at her with disdain, Are you working part-time here?
Yes. Emily Walker nodded politely and ignored the contempt in Be Stuarts eyes.
On the other hand, when Leonardo Bryson saw Emily Walker, he also showed a puzzled expression and asked with a smile, Arent you the girl who came out of Baron Stuarts office?
Hearing that, Emily Walker was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she regained her senses. Following that, she got worried and didnt understand who the man in front of her was and how he knew she had been in Baron Stuarts office?
What? My brothers office? Her? Before Emily Walker could respond, Be Stuart had already jumped up in astonishment, staring at Leonardo Bryson with wide eyes.
The three people looked at each other, and for a moment, they all forgot what they were going to say.
Hey, did you really go to my brothers office!? She really didnt understand what the rtionship was between this woman and her brother..

She really didnt want to talk about her personal matters during working hours, especially anything rted to her and that man. She would avoid it as much as possible.
Leonardo Bryson, who was sitting next to Be Stuart, seemed to understand
Emilys reluctance and didnt ask any more questions. Instead, he turned to
Be and said, Didnt you say the milk tea here is good?
Be looked at Leonardo and then at Emily, and then spoke with a worried frown, Yes, were here for milk tea, but now I want to know even more what her rtionship is with my brother!
If you really want to know, then ask your brother. Can we order something now? Leonardo looked at her with tenderness and indulgence on his face.
Hearing this, Be narrowed her eyes, considering it a good idea!
Well, time to order!n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
One strawberry cheese, one matcha cake, and two pudding milk teas!
Alright, please wait a moment. Seeing Be not pressing on the matter, Emily finally breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the counter.
As soon as Emily walked away, Be couldnt wait to take out her cell phone and dialed Baron Stuarts number. Hey, brother, have you had lunch yet?
Hmm.
Thene out for an afternoon tea! After saying this, Be took the phone down, took a photo of Emilys side profile from the counter, sent it, and added, Ive sent you the address. Ill be waiting!
If her brother really knew this girl, he woulde as soon as he saw the photo. At that time, she would definitely find out his rtionship with her!
In the private room, Baron Stuart sat at the dining table, his right hand holding the phone and looking at the address Be sent him.
In the screen, a familiar figure made him squint slightly. Although it was a side profile, he quickly recognized the frail silhouette.
Looking at the phone, Baron Stuart couldnt help but curl his lips into a faint smile. Then he got up and said to the man opposite him, Sorry, I have something urgent to deal with. Well discuss the contract next time.
10 minutester, a white Maserati stopped at the entrance of Pedestrian Street. As it was the weekend and there were already many people around, the car quickly attracted many envious nces, directed at Baron Stuart who was getting out of the car.
Ignoring those worldly and greedy looks, Baron Stuart walked straight to Coco Milk Tea Shop after getting out of the car.
He had been here once before, so he wasnt unfamiliar with the address Be sent him.
Do you think my brother wille? Inside the store, Be kept looking in the direction of the front door. From her expression, she seemed to not want him toe, because as soon as he did, it would probably have something to do with this girl.
Thats because she knew her brother too well. He hated going to milk tea shops like this, where only young girls would go!
Looking at Be sitting across from him, Leonardo turned his gaze and looked at Emily, who was not far away, serving customers. Recalling the situation at Futuren Group that day, he was also curious about the rtionship between this girl and Baron Stuart.
After all, they had known each other for eight years, and except for their university years, he had not seen Baron Stuart involved with any woman..

Not to mention seeing a woman who has nothing to do with work in his office.
Be Stuart moved her gaze back from the front door, and discovered that Leonardo Bryson was staring at something. She followed his gaze.
To her dismay, he was looking at another woman!
Hey! Leonardo, dont look at other women! Be pouted, looking quite upset.
Leonardo, however, dismissively turned his head, a rxed smile scrolling up his face, You should call me Big Brother Yates.
No way!
Why? Leonardo asked casually, taking a sip from the milk tea cup in front of him, and shifting his gaze outside the window.
Actually, he understood everything but for 18 -year-old Be, he needed time. At her age, what she thought of as affection might just be curiosity or infatuation.
Besides, the age gap between them was simply too wide, acting as a constant barrier in Leonardos heart.
His seemingly casual questions left Be, usually so high-spirited and proud, momentarily speechless.
She wanted to say that she liked him, so she didnt want to call him her big brother, but she was too embarrassed to actually say it.
Moreover, she firmly believed that it was the males role to confess his affection!
Because because I have a brother, I dont need you to be my brother! Be came up with an excuse on the spot.
Is that so? You dont like me then Leonardo turned his head, looking intensely at her.
Before he could finish his sentence, Be panicked on the spot, Thats not it! Actually, I She did like him, she liked him very much!
But once she tried to say it, she couldnt.
Seeing her flustered expression, Leonardo Smile gently, What I meant to say was, you dont like me being your brother.
Of course I dont! Be pouted unhappily, and just swallowed the strawberry cake she had been eating, as if to mask her affection.
CoughMmm
Maybe she was eating too fast, Be choked within half a second, unable to spit it out or swallow, practically suffocating!
Whats the matter!? Seeing her painful expression, Leonardos heart tightened, he quickly stood and went to her side, patting her back while urgently calling out, Waiter! Warm water, please!
Emily Walker, who was not far away, rushed over with a cup of warm water when she heard his call.
Leonardo took the water and hurried to Bes side.
Are you alright? Having seen her breathe a sigh of relief after drinking the water, Emily asked politely.
Its okay, thanks. Leonardo looked up at Emily standing beside him and smiled.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
At this moment, the door was pushed open and Baron Stuart walked in.
As Be had chosen a spot near the entrance, Emily instantly noticed Baron
Stuart and greeted professionally, Wee
Her voice cut off abruptly as she curiously looked at the man who had suddenly appeared.
As soon as Baron Stuart entered, he saw Emily standing there. Without sparing her a nce, he walked straight past her towards Leonardo and Be..

Whats wrong? Baron Stuart asked, furrowing his brows at the sight of his sisters red face. He then sat down across from them.
Its nothing. She just ate too fast and choked a little. Be Stuart was fine now, so Leonardo Bryson also sat up straight and looked at the baron.
Emily Walker, who had been standing nearby, looked at the nonchnt man and hesitated, not knowing whether to approach or not.
If she didnt go over, it would be a dereliction of her duty. If she did go, she was afraid it would lead to unnecessary trouble.
Because she had previously said that she would avoid the ces he was in.
Thinking about this, Emily clenched her teeth, wanting to turn around and leave, waiting for another waiter toe.
Waiter.
Just as she was about to turn away, the mans voice rang out from behind her when she least expected it!
Emily couldnt help it, and reluctantly turned around with a smile on her face.
Hello, she said as she walked over to the three people, smiled politely at Baron Stuart, and asked, What would you like to order?
Baron Stuart lowered his head, looking at the menu in front of him. He didnt know which type of milk tea was good or not. However, as soon as he opened the menu, a certain name caught his attention.
Give me a cup of Mandarin Duck Milk Tea first. Baron Stuart didnt look up, instead handing the menu back to Emily. His expression remained calm, as if he never knew her from the start.
Mandarin Duck Milk Teabines the aroma of coffee and the richness of milk tea. Students who usually visit the store do not order this vor, so it was not a popr item.
Emily couldnt help but feel that the man in front of her had deliberately ordered this particr milk tea.
Alright, please wait. Although she couldnt understand what the man was thinking, Emily still took the menu and headed towards the counter to prepare the Mandarin Duck Milk Tea.
Do you know that girl? Watching Emilys retreating figure, Leonardo Bryson took a sip of the milk tea Be ordered for him. He was asking Baron Stuart, but his eyes never left Emily at the counter.
Yes, Baron Stuart replied lightly, also looking towards Emily.
It had been more than a week since hest saw this woman. Seeing her again, the strange feeling inside him seemed to be welling up again.
But as soon as he replied, Be abruptly sprayed out the milk tea she had just taken a sip of. Luckily, Baron Stuart was sitting across from Leonardo, or else he wouldve been caught off guard by the spray!
What!? Brother, you really know her!? Be Stuart put down her tea cup, looking at Baron Stuart in shock.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Seeing her surprised expression, Baron Stuart slightly furrowed his brow and asked back, Is it strange that I know her?
Be Stuart blinked her big eyes in surprise, her expression a little flustered,
Noits just,st time I asked you, you said you didnt know her!
Baron Stuart lowered his eyes. At that time, he did know her, but he didnt know that her name was Emily Walker.
So when Be asked him, he had firmly denied it.
Brotheryou really know her? Be Stuart pointed to Emily, who was preparing milk tea at the counter not far away, Why do you know her? Whats your rtionship with her?

Trantor: 549690339
A series of questions in Be Stuarts heart almost drove her mad, and she just wanted to know what the rtionship was between the little girl and her brother!
Obviously displeased by his sisters questioning, Baron Stuart looked at her coldly and remained silent without answering.
Upon encountering her brothers gaze and expression, Be Stuart unconsciously pursed her lips, feeling as though she had asked too many questions at once.
I just want to know whats going on between you and her Be Stuart pouted discontentedly.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
In the midst of Be Stuarts questioning, Emily Walker had alreadye over with the Mandarins Duck Milk Tea she had prepared.
Enjoy. After putting down the milk tea, Emily Walker was about to turn and leave.
But as soon as she turned her head, a rxed voice came from behind her, Wait a moment.
Hearing this, Emily Walker clenched her teeth again, turned back, and smiled at Baron Stuart, Is there anything else you need?
She really didnt know what this man wanted, with so many waiters around, but he had to call her!
I remember you saidst time that you would avoid me wherever I am? Baron Stuart looked up at her, wanting to know what this woman would do today.
Upon hearing this, Emily Walker was stunned, and the smile on her face disappeared in an instant. She knew that this man would bring up this matter to embarrass her, knowing that this was her workce!
But right now, she didnt know what to do.
At this moment, she wondered what would happen if she pretended to be ignorant?
Sir, you must have remembered wrong. I dont even know you. She had no other choice for the sake of her job.
Hearing this, Baron Stuart dismissively lifted the corner of his mouth. Then, he raised his hand and brushed it over the cor of his pink shirt. With a gentle flick of his slender finger, the ck thread on his chest was exposed, revealing a grayish mandarin duck stone.
Since Emily Walker was standing, she could see the mandarin duck stone hanging between his honey-colored chest with just a nce.
Isnt that? Emily Walker stared wide-eyed at the mandarin duck stone on his corbone. She remembered asking for it backst time, but he said he didnt see it then. Now, he shamelessly wore her mandarin duck stone on his neck?
Brother, whats that thing on your neck? It looks so unique. Baron Stuarts casual gesture happened to be seen by Be Stuart across the table, who also noticed the Mandarin Duck Stone on his cor.
From childhood to now, she had never seen her brother wear any pendant, and couldnt help but be curious.
Baron Stuart looked up at his sister across the table, the corners of his mouth rising slightly, and said, I bought it at a shopping mall a few days ago.
Bought? How is that possible! Emily Walker looked at him incredulously. How could this man im her things were bought!?
Even if someone else had the exact same mandarin duck stone as hers, the ck thread couldnt be the same, right? That was the thin rope she made herself!
That thats my thing, how can you say its bought! Emily Walker spoke up since it was the only thing left by her parents. No matter what, she wanted it back.
As soon as her words came out, the six eyes at the dining table all looked over, especially Be Stuart and Leonardo Bryson, who were even more in disbelief.
Both of them couldnt help but wonder. If the pendant really belonged to her, why would it be worn by Baron Stuart?
Really? How are you going to prove this thing is yours? Also, you just said that we dont know each other, right? Baron Stuart looked at her, the corner of his mouth hinting at a smile..

I How should she bring it up? That thing had fallen in his room after thev had slept together that day.
But with so many people around, how could she mention it? If she didnt mention it, she wouldnt be able to get the mandarin duck stone back, which really gave her a headache.
I remembered it wrong. Actually, we met at the Futuren hotel. That thing really fell there. I hope you can return it to me. Emily Walker looked at him, her expression neither servile nor overbearing, hoping that he would let bygones be bygones and return the mandarin duck stone to her.
Baron Stuart looked at her, quite satisfied with her admitting the mistake,
Then tell me, where did it fall?
At his words, Emilys face showed surprise. Did this man want her to say that it had fallen on his bed!?!
She red at Baron Stuart, somewhat angry. This man not only took her stuff but also shamelessly asked her to say where it had fallen!
If I tell you, will you return the thing to me? Emily suppressed her anger. I will return it to you if you say it right. Baron Stuarts expression remained unchanged.
If she said it right, he would give it back? Did that mean that if she said it fell in the wrong ce he wouldnt return it? Even if she knew that it fell in his room, she had to precisely specify its location?
She was already very reluctant to say that it fell in his room, and now he wanted her to say that it fell on the bed!?
Once she said it, what would other people think of her?
Suddenly, Emily thought of a way to give the answer without saying it out loud!
She quickly took out her cell phone and typed a few words in a message: It fell on your bed that day.
After finishing the edit, she handed the phone directly to Baron Stuart, signaling him to read it.
But who would have thought that after Baron Stuart took the phone
It fell on your bed that day. Baron Stuart read aloud the words on the screen as he looked at the screen.
Hey! She didnt expect this, she really didnt think this man would read the answer aloud!
Obviously, when Baron Stuart read the words, Be Stuart on the side widened her eyes in disbelief, stood up, snatched the phone from Baron Stuarts hand, and wanted to see if the message really read that! N?v(el)B\\jnn
After reading it, she lifted her head, looked at Emily and shouted, You, you really slept with my brother!?
Originally, she was just suspicious, but she never thought that her brother, who had always been of good character, would sleep with thisthis woman!?
Be Stuart really didnt want to mention Emilys figure.
Because normal men should have no interest in such a skinny figure, right?
Due to Be Stuarts sudden exmation, the attention of other customers in the milk tea shop was attracted. They heard her words clearly and immediately started whispering to each other.
Did you hear that? The waiter in this store actually slept with that man
I heard it. I think she must have taken the initiative to climb onto someone elses bed. Look at that man, hes so handsome, how could he possibly want someone like her
I think so too. With that mans qualifications, how could he want that kind of woman
Nowadays, women are really scheming. They look innocent, but you never know how many mens beds theyve been in
When Emily heard the gossip and contemptuous gazes from not far away, her eyes instantly filled with mist, and her hands by her side clenched tighter..

She lifted her eyes to look at Baron Stuart, suppressing her inner anger. Her tone was calm yet tinged with the bitter pain. Is this the privilege of you rich people? Is stepping on others pain your right?!
In the end, Emily Walker could not help but yell out, her body trembling slightly with anger.
Looking at the mandarin duck stone hanging at his cor, she spoke again, Can you give me back my stuff?
Seeing the tears she was trying to hold back in her eyes, Baron Stuart felt a sudden pang in his heart. He did not want to step on her unspeakable pain.
However, for some reason, deep down, he just felt he wanted to have more interaction with the woman before him.
Looking into her furious eyes, Baron Stuart stood up. His towering figure stood dominantly in front of Emily Walker.
Few secondster, Baron Stuart slowly leaned down. At the same time, he stretched out both hands to hold the back of Emilys head. Without any warning, his sexy thin lips covered hers
For a moment, Emily was stunned. She suddenly widened her eyes until she felt the soft warmth from his lips, then she came back to her senses and tried to struggle.
Baron Stuart, like he had anticipated her struggle, already had one hand tightly holding her within his arms when she started to resist, and the other hand held the back of her head to prevent her from avoiding his kiss.
Whats going on?! What on earth does this man want to do?! n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Emily struggled incessantly, trying to escape from his kiss. But the more she struggled, the tighter the mans arm became!
Seeing this scene, not just Be Stuart and Leonardo Bryson were shocked, even the customers, waiters, and manager at the Milk Tea Shop were all taken aback!
Look, look, whats going on? That man is kissing that woman
What is happening didnt they say that woman crawled into that mans bed?
But
Are they lovers? Otherwise, why would that man kiss her?
If they are indeed lovers that would exin why they were in bed together but its so hard to believe, such a handsome man has already gotten a girlfriend!
Once again, the discussions from behind added further bewilderment and confusion to the already disrupted Emily Walker who was trapped in the forced kiss. What on earth does this man want to do? She wished to cut off all ties with him, why did he force a kiss on her!
Only when he heard the satisfyingments from behind him did Baron Stuart slowly release her.
But the moment he loosened his grip, the woman in his arms began to get restless. She broke free with force, a pair of jet ck eyes filled with hatred and anger staring at him.
What right do you have? What right do you have! Emily lifted her furious eyes, screaming at him with all her might. Her tears were stubbornly held back in her eyes.
He is neither her boyfriend nor her lover. By what right does he force a kiss on her, especially in front of so many people!
Baron Stuart just stared at her fixedly. Seeing her eyes swollen red with torment, he felt as something heavy was pressing on his heart, unable to rise or fall.
Looking at the emotionless man in front of her, Emily felt increasingly helpless. The tears that she had been trying to hold back, finally broke free and rolled down like a spring well.
Watching her tear-streaked face, Baron Stuart unconsciously tightened his hand that was hanging at his side. A sudden urge to reach out and wipe her tears welled up within him..

But before he could reach out his hand, he saw the person in front of him close her eyes in pain and then disappear from his sight.
Watching Emily Walker head towards the door of the shop, Baron Stuart did not chase after her; he just stood still in ce.
It wasnt until a cell phone ringtone rang that Baron Stuart came back to his senses and took out his cell phone to check the caller ID.
Calming his emotions, Baron Stuart answered the phone, his voice cold and devoid of warmth, Whats the matter?
Young Master, just now Old Master called from Siberia, saying that there is a dinner with the Walker Group tonight, and asks that you attend tonight. yton Howards calm voice came through the phone.
Baron Stuart frowned slightly at the news, Walker Group? What dinner party? Master says its just a simple meal, and Madam and Lady will also attend.
What time?
7:30 PM.
Understood.
Baron Stuart hung up the telephone impatiently, very dissatisfied with Zachary Stuarts arrangements every time.
With a heavy heart, Emily left the Milk Tea Shop and walked aimlessly down the street, feeling weighed down. Perhaps having walked too long, she began to tire and eventually entered a park.
On this sweltering summer day, the park was still full of people, perhaps due to it being the weekend. Some were sitting under willow trees to enjoy the shade, while others were chatting happily under the greenery.
After entering, Emily also found a shady spot to sit down but wasnt in the mood to enjoy the sights. She just sadly sat on the wooden chair as each minute and every second passed by, engulfed in her thoughts, unable to get out of them even as the sky turned red with sunset.
Not until she noticed someone sitting next to her did shee back to her senses, hesitantly raised her head, and looked at the person sitting beside her.
Seeing the panting man, she didnt pay him any attention but moved her body away from him.
The man seemed to notice her as well, and while panting, he looked at her with his captivating peach blossom eyes. Upon seeing her deliberately avoiding him, he paused, puzzled.
Had his charm decreased? Usually, women would eagerly throw themselves at him. But this woman was different, she was avoiding him like the gue.
Looking towards the park entrance, he noticed three or four men in ck suits running in, searching around frantically. Seeing this, the panting man immediately panicked.
Seeing the panting man beside her, Emily got up and wanted to distance herself from this stranger.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
But just as she stood up, a tall figure appeared before her, blocking her way.
Shocked, Emily wondered if she had encountered a pervert since the park was at evening hours.
However, just as she was about to question the man in front of her, he suddenly lunged at her and wrapped his double arms tightly around her!
This embracepletely frightened Emily, and she instinctively tried to struggle, YouC
Shh Before she could speak, the man was the first to whisper into her ear, Miss, please help me, Im being chased by someone. They are right in front of you..

Hearing this, Emily Walker didnt struggle for a moment, but looked up at the park entrance not far away, and indeed saw a few men looking around.
Please, I will let you go once they leave. The man spoke again, and as it was evening and dusk fell, Adrian Nash quickly avoided the bodyguards line of sight with his back to them.
Once the group left the park, Adrian Nash let Emily Walker go and immediately offered a warm and charming smile, Thank you.
Emily nced at the men leaving the park and then looked back at the man in front of her, somehow reminded of the previous scene on the rooftop.
After nodding politely to the man, Emily turned and left.
Hey. As she turned, Adrian Nash called out to her.
Emily looked back, somewhat puzzled, What else is there?
Whats your name? Adrian Nash looked at Emily in front of him, seemingly finding her different from other women and very curious to know her name.
Considering the security implications of a strange man asking her name, Emily did not answer but just offered a shallow smile and walked away from the park.
Watching her receding figure, Adrian Nash was somewhat disappointed in his heart.
Would she tell him her name if he met her again?
Walking along the street with her thoughts, Emily suddenly remembered that today was the weekend as the clock in the square rang out!
On every weekend evening, she had a part-time job with a very good hourly wage!
It was already seven oclock in the evening, so it seemed she would have to take
a taxi.
Removing her maids apron, luckily, there was some change in the apron pocket, just enough for the car fare!
After hailing a taxi, Emily hurriedly got in, and about ten plus minutester, the car arrived at Sea Sky Grand Hotel.
Upon entering the hotel, Emily duly went to the dressing room and changed into her work clothes.
Fortunately, the lead worker here was very nice, and although she was ten to fifteen minuteste today, he only asked briefly and did not say much.
Never bete again, or I wont be able to protect you. The lead worker was a woman who looked to be about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old and had a gentle demeanor.
If it werent for her today, Emily might have lost this job.
Thank you, Supervisor Beckham, I wont bete next time! Emily promised.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Alright, get to work. You are taking care of A Private Room tonight, which will start at around 7:30 PM. You should go get ready, Supervisor Beckham said with a smile. She protected Emily because she was careful in her work and always received excellent reviews from customers.
Yes, Ill go right away, Emily said, quickly leaving the employee dressing room and heading in the direction of A Private Room on the third floor.
Third floor, A Private Room.
In the private room, Mr. and Mrs. Walker were sitting upright at the dining table, and only Cam Walker was leaning arrogantly with an unhappy expression.
Cam, when Madam Foster arrives, you mustnt be like thisso unruly. Madam Walker sighed helplessly but couldnt bring herself to scold her daughter too harshly.
Mom, didnt we already get engaged with the Stuart Family? Why should we still act second rate? In Cams heart, Walker Consortium didnt need to cling to anyone, especially not the Stuart family members of Futuren Group..

Trantor: 549690339
However, Chairman Walker didnt think so. Although the Walker Consortium was considered one of the toppanies in the business circle, it was still inferior to the Futuren Group.
The reason for wanting this marriage alliance with the Stuart family was not only for his daughters happiness, but also to consolidate the Walker Groups position in the business circle with the help of the Futuren Group.
With the Futuren Group as a strong backing, even if the consortium encountered difficulties in the future, it would not be shaken.
You must never let the Stuarts hear what you just said, or your marriage might be in jeopardy! Honestly, youre not young anymore, cant you change your spoiled youngdy temperament? Baxter Walker could not help but scold his daughter for her thoughtless words.
Mom! Upon being reprimanded by her father, Cam Walker looked to her mother, Ang Reid.
Ang looked at her spoiled daughter and couldnt help but speak up for fairness, Your father is right, youre grown up now, and you cant be throwing youngdy tantrums anymore. If you still behave like this after marrying into the Stuart family, who could bear with you?
As they spoke, the door to the private room was pushed open, and Emily Walker, dressed in uniform, entered with a smile, Hello, I am the waiter in charge of this private room. If you need anything, you can ask me.
When someone came in, Baxter Walker restrained his expression and nodded at Emily after taking a look at her.
Since Cam Walker was still angry, she didnt look up and kept her head down, looking very dissatisfied.
Ang also nodded with a smile after looking at Emily.
Emily reciprocated with a smile, then turned and left the private room, closing the door behind her.
Ang? Seeing his wifes gaze fixed on the entrance to the private room, Baxter Walker called her name in confusion.
Huh? Ang Reid was brought back to reality and smiled, Nothing, I was just wondering why the Stuarts havent arrived yet.
ncing at the time, it was already 7:25 AM.
They should be here soon. The Stuarts have always been punctual. Baxter Walker could not help but also look towards the entrance to the private room. Sure enough, at 7:26 AM, the door to the private room was pushed open once again.
Baron Stuart, Vivian Ferguson, and Be Stuart walked in.
Im sorry, you must have been waiting for a long time. As soon as Vivian Ferguson entered, she apologized to Mr. and Mrs. Walker with a smile. Her noble and gorgeous attire was exquisite and elegant.
Not at all, we just arrived ourselves. Mr. and Mrs. Walker hastily stood up to greet the three.
Ang Reid nced at her daughter still sitting on the side and hurriedly tugged at her clothes.
Caught up in her anger, Cam Walker was momentarily stunned by Baron Stuarts arrival, forgetting to stand up. Fortunately, her mother tugged at her, and she quickly stood up, smiling and nodding in respect to Vivian Ferguson. Looking at Cam Walker, who was deliberately pleasing her mother, Be Stuart couldnt help but purse her lips in disdain, turning her gaze to the side.
She couldnt stand her the most, always acting like a sweet and well-behaved girl in front of her family!
The two families chatted withughter, while Baron Stuarts face remained expressionless from beginning to end.
His mind kept reying the scene at the milk tea shop, with the pair of eyes filled with pain lingering in his consciousness. At this moment, he wondered what that woman was doing.
Baron Stuart! Seeing her son not speaking and always maintaining a cold expression, Vivian Ferguson couldnt help but feel a little displeased and began to scold him in a low voice.
Baron Stuart raised his dark eyes upon hearing that but still did not speak a word to Vivian Ferguson..n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om

Please dont be offended, Baron Stuart has been like this since he was a child, always with a cold face, as if everyone in the world owes him something. Seeing her sons behavior, Vivian Ferguson hurriedly smiled and said to Mr.
and Mrs. Walker.
I can understand that, after all, managing such arge corporation like
Futuren Group. Its inevitable that some habits would be formed. Baxter Walker remains unfazed by Baron Stuarts indifference. After all, if one were to steer arge enterprise like Futuren Group with branches worldwide, they must put aside personal feelings.
Upon hearing Baxter Walkers words, Vivians face brightened with a smile.
Since we are all family now, I dont need to be so formal. Come, Baron Stuart, take a look at what you would like to eat. Baxter Walker spoke first, breaking the silence of the quiet Baron Stuart and handed him the menu in front of him.
Upon hearing this, Baron Stuart nced at Baxter Walker across the table. The Stuarts and Walkers were longstanding friends and business partners, so Baron Stuart naturally recognized the strength of the Walker Family.
However, that was just the recognition in business. As for marriage, he didnt think that Cam Walker would be the best choice.
Chairman Walker, are you really so confident in entrusting your daughter to me? Baron Stuart didnt take the menu but looked at Baxter Walker and spoke lightly.
Baxter Walker was obviously bewildered by the question, and after half a moment, he lightlyughed and said, Its her fortune to marry into Stuart Family. I dont know what are you trying to say? Or do you have any dissatisfaction with my daughter?
Baxter Walker, being no ordinary person, naturally detected the hidden meaning in his words and directly asked.
The conversation between the two caused everyone present to be taken aback, not understanding the situation at hand.
Its not dissatisfaction, but I just want to tell you in advance that the Stuart
Family can give her anything materially, but anything else she wants, I, Baron Stuart, cannot provide. His expression was indifferent, and his deep eyes showed no emotion, as if he was just looking at strangers.
Upon hearing his words, both the Stuarts and the Walkers looked at each other, wondering what his intention was.
Baron Stuart, what are you talking about! As for his words, Vivian Ferguson was naturally discontented. Since the two families had arranged the marriage, she would naturally uphold the Stuart Familys honor and would not allow gossip to affect them.
Facing his mother, Baron Stuart didnt pay much attention to her. Instead, he directly stood up and prepared to leave the private room.
As he got up from the dining table and walked towards the entrance of the private room, the door was pushed open from the outside.
Hello, may 1 Emily Walker walked in with a smile, but her voice stopped abruptly when she saw the maning towards her, and the smile on her face froze.
Clearly, Baron Stuart was also momentarily shocked to see her here. He slightly furrowed his eyebrows, wondering how the woman could be here.
Seeing her employee uniform, Baron Stuart seemed to understand. How many jobs did this woman work?
Its you! Be Stuart, who heard the sound, also looked towards the entrance of the private room, and when she saw Emily Walker, she was extremely surprised; her pupils growing wide!
Emily Walker looked over and saw the people sitting in this private room.
Although she didnt recognize the three older people, she did recognize Be Stuart and Cam Walker.
As she looked around, Emily caught Cam Walkers hostile gaze.
Cam Walker nced at Emilys uniform and sneered at the corner of her mouth..n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Looking at her daughters surprised face, Vivian Ferguson also turned her head, and after ncing at the waiter at the door, she turned back and asked Be Stuart, What is it? You know her?
Huh? Be Stuart looked at her own mother, then looked at her brother and
Emily Walker not far away, unsure of what to say for a moment, Oh, I Hehe, I mistook her for someone else, she looks like my ssmate.
Be muddled through, offering up a random excuse.
It would be best if mother didnt find out about her brother and the little girls rtionship, otherwise it would getplicated!
Looking at the people in the private room, Emily Walker snapped back to reality after momentary surprise, and asked with a smile, May I serve the dishes now?
Of course! Before anyone else could react, Cam Walker responded.
Hearing this, Emily Walker politely bowed, Alright, please wait a moment. Having said this, she turned around and left the private room.
Watching Emily Walker leave the private room, Cam Walker also stood up immediately, Excuse me, I would like to go to the restroom.
She gave a polite smile to Vivian Ferguson, then left the private room.
Baron Stuart, wont you sit down! Vivian Fergusons voice rang out from behind him, but Baron Stuart did not turn his head. Instead, he left the private room and dropped an indifferent sentence, I have another social engagement.
You all start the meal without me.
Baron Stuart! Looking at him disappearing at the entrance of the private room, Vivian Ferguson was both angry and helpless.
Mother, I had afternoon tea with brother this afternoon. He said that he has an important client to entertain tonight. Be Stuart immediately spoke up tofort her flustered mother, and also to cover for her adored brother!
Upon hearing this, Vivian Ferguson turned to her daughter and asked doubtfully, Is that so?
Of course! Even if brother wants to skip the meal and leaves, I wouldnt need to deceive you, mother! Be Stuart said sincerely!
Looking at the mother and daughter, Ang Reid offered aprehending smile, Madam Foster, maybe he really does have something urgent. Why dont we eat first? Were all family here, we shouldnt get too hung up on these things. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Ang Reid understood propriety. The engagement was secured despite her understanding that Baron Stuart had no particr affection for her daughter. She didnt want too much resentment, so family should give way to one another.
Vivian Ferguson looked at the smiling Ang Reid with a hint of apology, Alright then, I hope you all can forgive us my sons behavior. Only his grandfather can really control him.
The two families exchanged smiles, finally alleviating the awkwvard atmosphere in the private room.
Meanwhile, Emily Walker was pushing a trolley down the corridor, lined with golden splendor.
Those clothes really suit you.
A clear voice reverberated in front of her, filled with mockery. Emily Walker knew without lifting her head that the person opposite her was Cam Walker.
Perhaps as a hotel service worker, she couldntpare in status with these wealthydies, but she was making a living through her own efforts, what made her inferior to Cam Walker, meriting her jeers?
Emily Walker calmly lifted her head, looking at Cam Walker, who stood opposite to her, appearing arrogantly. She figured that Miss Walker would find another way to give her a hard time!
Ignoring Cam Walkers voice, Emily Walker continued to push the trolley forward, maintaining aposed expression as she passed her..

Chapter 79: Cam Walkers Difficulties 3
Trantor: 549690339
Ignoring her clearly annoyed Cam Walker. When Emily Walker passed by, Cam grabbed the edge of the dining table, then turned around and blocked Emilys way.
Since this was the private room area, the corridor was usually empty to provide customers with an elegant and quiet environment. asionally, there would be waiters like Emily passing through, but they would quickly enter other private rooms to serve customers.
I really dont know what gives a lowly person like you the right to be so arrogant in front of me! Cam sneered at Emily, who looked calm. Is it your ability to seduce other peoples fiancs?
Cam still resented the incident at the Futuren Group to this day!
Obviously, whether it was in terms of family background or appearance, Cam was far superior to the woman in front of her. But Baron Stuart chose her over Cam, his fiance, and kicked Cam out of the office, which was even more humiliating than pping her in the face!
At first, Cam thought that this woman must have some powerful backing, but it turned out she was just a hotel waiter!
Listening to the wordsing out of Cams mouth, Emilys grip on the trolley tightened, but she was at her workce now, and her identity made her subservient. The customer was God, and that was fundamental to the service industry!
Emily raised her eyes without any expression and looked at Cam. She spoke calmly, Lady Walker, right? What do you want?
Emilys tone was neither humble nor aggressive, and the smile she had in the private room was gone.
Cam smirked sarcastically again, wondering how enduring a lowly person like Emily could be!
Cam nced at the food and expensive red wine on the trolley, and then a triumphant sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
She then took a dish of the expensive famous dish and looked at Emily with a
haughty air, What if I just do this
During her speech, there was a bang sound, and the te in Cams hand fell instantly, shattering the dish and the delicacy on the floor.
Then, apanied by Cams coldughter, What kind of price will you pay? Do youpensate at the original price? Or do you deduct the bonus? Ah, maybe even all your bonuses are not enough for this dish.
Looking at the shattered te and famous dish on the ground, Emilys eyes widened. Cam didnt expect her to use this way to make things difficult for her!
Emily looked up with anger in her eyes. This dish would cost at least several hundred dors, and indeed, her monthly bonus wouldnt be enough to cover
What do you want!? Emily suppressed her anger and stared at Cam.
Cant you see? I just want to make things difficult for you, or to make you lose this job. Cam smirked, feeling that this bit of venting was far from enough for Emilys involvement with Baron Stuart.
Hearing this, Emily couldnt help but sneer, How do you know I will lose this job? You were the one who broke the te, werent you?
Even as a waitress, she couldnt confront customers, but she had no intention of taking the me for this incident.
Is that so? Who saw it? Do you think your manager will believe you and choose to offend me, a VIP guest? n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Indeed, in a five-star hotel like this, VIP guests were even more important than God!

Upon hearing this, Emily Walkers eyes filled with anger. Maybe what the woman said was true. It was already difficult for her to get a job at this hotel, and she could be fired for any reason.
Suppressing the anger in her heart, Emily crouched down and began to clean up the broken pieces on the ground.
But just as she crouched down for less than half a second, another te of food fell down.
Seeing another broken te, Emily widened her eyes in shock and looked up at the smug Cam Walker.
Immediately, she stood up and yelled at the overbearing Cam, What are you doing? What do you want?!
Lady, that is not eptable. These two dishes are very expensive. Not far away, a pleasant male voice chimed in,ced with a touch of sexiness.
The two women turned to see a man in a ck shirt walking towards them. His handsome face looked mysterious under the light, but his sexy and charming smile was clear.
As the man approached, Emily realized that he was the man she had just met in the park not long ago.
Who are you? As soon as Cam saw the man approaching, she asked immediately.
Me? The man pointed at himself and then smiled brightly, Im just a passerby, witnessing you bullying this waiter. I wanted to speak up for justice!
Hearing this, Cam examined him up and down. Judging by his attire, he should be of simr status to her.
This is none of your business. This is between her and me.
If its a personal grudge, why make things difficult for her at work? Its not easy for her to find a job, you know? Adrian Nash continued to smile charmingly.
And what if I want to make things difficult for her at work? Seeing that the man in front of her seemed determined to meddle, Cam was not nning to back down. She wanted to see how this outsider would interfere in this womans affairs.
Hearing this, Adrian Nash stuck out his tongue slightly, revealing a wicked smile, Lady, arent you being unreasonable? You know that with her status, she cant fight you. If you hate her so much, why not just go to her boss and have her fired? With the influence of the Walker Group, this shouldnt be a problem, right?
Thats not a bad idea. Hearing this, Cam smirked coldly.
But although she said so, she did not think the same way in her heart. Directly firing this woman would not be as fun as the current situation.
However, Emily, who was standing beside them, widened her eyes and looked at the man in front of her, wondering if he was here to help or destroy her.
Hey, why would you Just as she was about to speak, she saw the mans cell phone ringing.
Hello?
Young Master Nash, I heard you were looking for me. A cold voice came through the phone.
Ah, Baron Stuart, its you. But Im a little busy right now, can I ask you to wait a little while?
Is this how you treat people? If you dont have time, I wont bother you. On the phone, Baron Stuart seemed a bit displeased.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
I cant help it. Your fiance is currently bullying my employee in my hotel. Do you think I can ignore this? Adrian Nash asked, half-jokingly, while looking at Cam.
Upon hearing this, Baron Stuart narrowed his eyes slightly on the other end of the phone, as if sensing something..

Hearing this, Baron Stuart slightly narrowed his eyes on the other end of the phone, as if sensing something.
Then, he changed the subject, Really? Then, may I ask where Young Master Nash is right now?
On the third floor. As he spoke, Adrian Nash seemed to guess that Baron Stuart was also at the Sea Sky Grand Hotel, and he inferred that his fiance was here, probably with him.
After hanging up the phone, Baron Stuart turned and nced at the hotel Grand Hall, then walked towards the elevator.
The elevator went directly to the third floor, which was where his private room was located when he just came out. Its easy to imagine that at this time, the person Cam Walker was bullying must be Emily Walker.
You know me? Looking at the man who hung up the phone, Cam Walker smirked. She didnt expect that someone recognized her even before she introduced herself.
Adrian Nash gave a thin-lipped smile. Baron Stuart, who had been single for 28 years, had just announced his engagement recently. His fiancee was the heiress of the Walker Consortium, so it would be hard not to recognize her.
I cant say I know you well, but I do know your fianc, and he seems to be heading this way. After finishing, Adrian Nash looked down the corridor, and sure enough, under the brilliant light, a tall figure was slowly walking over.
Cam Walker and Emily Walker also looked down the corridor following his gaze.
Seeing the three people standing in the corridor and the mess on the floor, Baron Stuart slightly raised his eyes, focusing on Emily Walker, particrly her cheeks.
Satisfied that her face was clean and unmarked, Baron Stuart turned his gaze to Adrian Nash,pletely ignoring Cam Walkers presence the entire time.
Cam Walker, however, clearly noticed this too.
From the moment he arrived, his attention was on that woman, and he never looked at her. Where did she fall shortpared to the woman before her eyes?
Why, why treat her this way? Compared to this lowly woman, wasnt she a better choice for him!?
Although Cam Walker was prideful and arrogant, she didnt dare to act recklessly in front of Baron Stuart. Silently clenching her teeth, she gripped her fists tightly.
I didnt expect to see Young Lord here. Adrian Nashs face still wore a defiant smile.
ncing at Adrian Nash in front of him, Baron Stuart remained expressionless. His cold face revealed no warmth, and his obsidian-like eyes emitted a chilling light that made people hesitant to approach him.
Young Master Nash, you seem to have a lot ot leisure time, Baron Stuart said with a cold voice.
Adrian Nash, however, didnt care and kept smiling seductively. Young Lords joking. Considering shes your fiance, I cant help but get involved. Dont you think so?N?v(el)B\\jnn
His words hinted that he was doing Young Lord a favor, that he was only involved in this trivial matter because of Young Lords face.
Did you handle it well? Baron Stuart put his hands in the pockets of his trousers, his sexy thin lips lightly opened, the pink shirt highlighting his noble aura from birth. A perfect outline, an indescribable charm.
Adrian Nash looked at him, his thin lips slightly raised. Young Lords fiance, it seems, isnt about to let my employee off the hook.
As he spoke, he turned to look at Cam Walker.
Cam Walker nced at Baron Stuart not far away. She didnt understand the importance of this woman in his heart. She could make him stand up for her time and again.
What, are you going to meddle in my business again for this woman? Cam Walker looked at him, clearly unhappy with his tone..

Baron Stuart seemed unaffected, slightly lowering his eyes and fiddling with the exquisite tinum ring with English writing on his little finger.
His tone was indifferent, with a hint of chilliness, People already say that youre my fiance, he paused and looked up at Cam Walker, or do you think your matters are of no concern to me?
His words were enigmatic, suggesting that Cams matters were also his, but Cam didnt seem to agree.
Thats because she knew him too well: Baron Stuart wouldnt care about her matters no matter who elses concerns he took on.
His words today were merely an excuse to save this woman before him by using his fianc status.
What method, then, had this woman employed to make the usually ruthless Baron Stuart defend her time and time again?
Looking at the tinum ring on his little finger, Cam was fully aware that it represented being single. He was already engaged to her, yet he hadnt put on an engagement ring and still wore that single one.
This only fueled Cams anger, and she became even more determined not to let Emily Walker off the hook!
She turned her head to look at Emily, her expression full of sarcasm, Why dont you teach me a thing or two about how to seduce people? In the blink of an eye, youve hooked up with Young Master Nash of the S Group. Youre quite talented indeed.
Hearing Baron Stuart address the man as Young Master Nash, Cam naturally knew that he was Adrian Nash of the S Group.
Upon hearing Cams words, Emily remained calm. After all, she had already been used of seduction, so one more wouldnt matter.
Didnt you know? The hotel youre working at is his, Cam continued to speak, a touch of contempt at the corner of her mouth as she nced at Adrian Nash beside Emily.
In Cams opinion, perhaps this woman wanted to hook up with the young master of the S Group, which was why she had entered this hotel to work as a waitress.
Thinking about how the two most sought-after men in E City were both defending this woman before them, jealousy surged in Cams heart, wishing she could trample on Emily and humiliate her!
Emily was quite surprised by Cams words and turned her head to stare at the man beside her in astonishment. Was he really the boss of this hotel? He was so young!
Catching Emilys gaze, Adrian shed a charming smile. His next words left Emily speechless!
I think its such a waste for you to be a waitress. I happen to be in need of a personal assistant. Why dont you join the S Group starting today?
Emilys eyes widened, seemingly unable to believe what she had just heard, What?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even Baron Stuart beside them furrowed his brow slightly, unable to understand what Adrian intended to do.
Did this woman know him? She had only seen him once, and he had immediatelye to her defense.
Thinking that this woman might join the S Corporation soon, bing Adrians personal assistant, an inexplicable jealousy ignited within Baron Stuarts heart.
Joining the S Corporation means a high sry, Adrian Nash started to tempt her, Hm let me calcte. With bonuses, youll make about ten thousand a month plus some other benefits and subsidies
Ten thousand!? That was double her current sry! And she had to work non-stop at her current job to make over five thousand a month.
However, despite the tempting sry, Emily still had a sense of self-awareness..

She smiled slightly, and after learning that Adrian Nash was her boss, she started using a respectful address. Boss, thank you for your kindness, but Im afraid the job you mentioned might not be suitable for me.
Having said that, she crouched down once again to clean up the debris on the ground.
How can it be unsuitable? If you dont really know how to Adrian Nash drew out thest syble, looked up, and began nning, I can teach you hands-on teaching! After finishing speaking, he cast a flirtatious nce at Emily Walker.
Upon hearing this, Emily looked up at him, somewhat puzzled by this man, who seemed very keen on getting her into the S Group?
Thank you for Young Master Nashs kindness, but she will be an employee of the Futuren Group starting tomorrow. At this moment, an icy voice rang out.
All three of them looked at Baron Stuart, who had spoken those words, and were a little taken aback.
Emily Walker, in particr, did not understand why he had said such a thing.
On the other hand, Cam Walker clenched her fists in anger, her resentful gaze sweeping over Emily, who was slowly standing up.
What do you mean by that? When did I be an employee of the Futuren Group? Although her childhood dream was to join the Design Department of the Futuren Group, she didnt remember sending in her resume to the Futuren Group.
Baron Stuart looked up, his deep pupils fixed on her. He didnt want this woman to be close to other men no matter what. From the beginning, she might have upied an inexplicable status in his heart, which even he wasnt aware of.
Starting today, you will officially report to the Futuren Group tomorrow.
He walked up to Emily, then leaned down and whispered in her ear with a meaningful smile. Ill give you two choices C one, join the Futuren Group to realize your design dream; two, if you dare join the S Group, I will reveal the 1.5 million matter
Yes, he was threatening her, willing to do anything to keep her within his sight, even if that meant resorting to threats.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Hearing the mans deep, threatening voice, Emily widened her eyes and wanted to strangle this man in front of her!
1.5 million was he referring to the fact that if she joined the S Group, he would reveal the events of that night!? Despicable, utterly despicable!
But what did this man just say? Her design dream?
Could it be that he knew her dream was to join the Design Department of the Futuren Group? But how did he find that out?
Although this might truly tempt her, she wanted to enter the Futuren Group based on her own abilities, not on some so-calledunwritten rules.
Moreover, if she really joined the Futuren Group, wouldnt Lady Walker want to tear her apart?
Seeing the two of them whisper intimately, Cam by their side was grinding her teeth in anger, wishing she could rush over and forcefully pull Emily away from Baron Stuart!
Initially, she just wanted to make things difficult for this woman, but in doing so, she inadvertently gave her the opportunity to join the Future Group. If thats the case, wouldnt that mean Emily and Baron would be working under the same roof in the future? Or even see each other every day.
What will it be? Baron pulled his face away from her ear, looking at her with an ambiguous smile, waiting for her answer. He was confident that the answer would not deviate from his expectation.
Youre despicable! Emily red at him and mouthed the three words with her lips.
What kind of answer is that? Baron was not annoyed, but insteadughed even more charmingly, waiting for her to give her answer. He was sure that the answer would definitely not surprise him..

She frowned at him unhappily, then turned to Adrian Nash, bowing slightly in apology. Boss, Im sorry, and thank you for your kindness.
No matter what, she absolutely couldnt join S Group.
Her words clearly rejected his kindness, and although he initially thought of this method only to help her out, he couldnt help but feel a little disappointed when she rejected his offer.
As an apology, can you at least tell me your name? Adrian Nash looked at her, still smiling charmingly.
The man before her was worlds apart from the man behind her. They were onpletely different levels!
Im Emily Walker. Emily smiled and told him her name.
In fact, Adrian Nash could have found her name by asking the Human Resources Department, but he still wanted to ask her personally. Okay, Ill remember it. If youre ever unhappy at Futuren Group, feel free toe find me. Ill always have an assistant position ready for you. He said jokingly, but in his heart, he was serious.
His words surprised Emily a little, but she took it as polite small talk and just smiled without saying much.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She turned to the shameless man in front of her and said softly, I can join Futuren Group, but on one condition!
Lets hear it.
I dont want to enter the Design Department because of your connections.
11 had some works during my university years. Ifif I can pass the interview, Ill join Futuren Group.
During her university years, Emily had many design works and had always dreamed of joining Futuren Group. However, too many things happened at hometer on, and she had to give up her dreams and education.
But you cant use your power toto interfere in any way. Emily meant that he couldnt use his identity to force her into Futuren Group.
If I cant join Futuren Group by my own strength, then youyoure not allowed toto mention that matter ever again. Whether or not I join thatpany, you cant threaten me with it.
Which matter? Baron Stuart yed dumb.
Emily red at him. Wasnt he deliberately asking for it!?
The very matter youre using to threaten me now! Emily clenched her teeth and growled quietly!
All right. He wouldnt let her fail to join Futuren Group. On the contrary, he would ensure she joined Futuren Group!
And you cant use your power to get me into the Design Department either. All right. He wouldnt use his power, but could he use yton Howards?
With that, Baron Stuart took out his cell phone and dialed yton Howards number. Come to the third floor.
A few minutester, yton Howard came over, respectfully bowing his head to Baron Stuart. Young Lord.
Come with me. Baron Stuart stepped towards Emily, then grabbed her hand and walked in another direction, with yton Howard following closely behind.
Emily, whose hand had been grabbed, was somewhat taken aback, not knowing what this man was nning to do.
Watching the two of them leave, Cam Walker clutched her hand tighter and tighter, her enraged gaze fixated on Emilys back, as if wanting to tear her apart!
Hey, where are you taking me? Emily was pulled along all the way, possibly because he walked a bit fast, causing her to struggle to keep up.
Wheres your dressing room? Baron Stuart held her hand while scanning his
surroundings, then asked..

Dressing room? What does he want with the dressing room?
Half a momentter, Emily Walker seemed to understand something. She immediately widened her eyes as she looked at his straight back!
This man, could he be so perverted as to want to peep at their female employees changing clothes?
You, what do you want with our dressing room? She looked at him warily.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Baron Stuart, who had been pulling her forward, suddenly stopped at her words, turned around, and looked her up and down, his eyes slightly narrowed, Dont tell me you want to go out in these clothes?
Emily hesitated, looked at the clothes she was wearing, still somewhat confused, Go out? Where? Im still in she was still in working hours.
Here? The view shifted, and the two of them arrived at an Employee Dressing Room. Baron Stuart asked while pulling her along.
Looking at the dressing room in front of her, Emily hesitated and nodded. Before she could react, Baron Stuart pushed her in, Change your clothes.
By the time she came out of Sea Sky Grand Hotel, it was already 8:30 PM. The weather in July was always unbearably hot, and even at night, it still brought people a touch of irritability.
Emily, carrying a small backpack, walked out of the hotel. Seeing the sapphire blue sports car parked in front of her, she looked puzzled, not understanding where this man wanted to take her.
It wasnt until ten minutester that Emily found out that this man had actually taken her straight home.
Because the alley was narrow, Baron Stuart didnt drive the car in, but let Emily get off the car at the intersection.
Even now, she was still somewhat bewildered, not understanding why this man had taken her home.
Wait a moment. Just as Emily was about to turn around and walk into the alley, the man in the drivers seat called out to her.
Emily looked back, her expression puzzled.
Half a secondter, a beautiful and slender hand protruded from the car window, holding a white cellphone.
Looking at the phone in his hand, Emily realized it was the one she had left at the Milk Tea Shop in the afternoon. She hurriedly took it, Thank you.
After saying thanks, Emily left the blue sports car with a puzzled heart. However, she didnt go straight into the alley but chose to go to a convenience store at the entrance of the alley.
When she came out five minutester, she had an extra bag in her hand. From Baron Stuarts line of sight, it appeared to be filled with snacks or something.
Seeing her enter the alley, Baron Stuart started the car, ready to drive away.
But just as his hand touched the key, he suddenly heard a scream!
At the sound, Baron Stuarts expression changed, and he instinctively opened the car door and rushed into the alley!
In the alley, Emily covered her chest, her hands trembling from the scare.
From the look on her face, it looked like she had been frightened by something!
Whats wrong? Seeing her frightened, Baron Stuart approached and asked. Emily took a deep breath, calming herself after a long time. But she still felt the scare must have been huge.
No, nothing
Just now, because it was dark, she saw two faint green lights in the corner of the alley from a distance. That was what scared her half to death. But because of her scream, the two green lights suddenly rushed out, and looking closely, it turned out to be a cat.
It was understandable that girls would be timid, especially at night.
Following her line of sight, Baron Stuart also saw the cat. He probably guessed what frightened her too, and his inexplicably tense heart rxed a little..

Taking a deep breath, Emily Walker squatted down and picked up the things that had fallen on the ground.
What is that? Noticing the stuff in the bag she was holding, Baron Stuart asked curiously.
Emily looked at him and then at the bag in her hand before casually saying, Instant noodles.
Baron furrowed his brows slightly at her words, Why did you buy that?
Having lived for 28 years, he knew about instant noodles but had never tasted
them. He also knew that they were quite unsafe and had little to no nutritional
value.
Emily looked at him somewhat bewildered, thinking this man was quite amusing. What could one do with instant noodles other than eating them? Were they meant for hanging oneself?
I havent eaten dinner yet. Although she found this question somewhat redundant, Emily still answered.
She had been busy since noon and had not had dinner before going to work. It was only when she saw the convenience store earlier that she realized she was starving, so she bought the instant noodles, nning to cook and eat them as dinner when she got home.
Looking at the bag in her hand, Baron suddenly felt a bit hungry as well.
It was no wonder because he hadnt had dinner either.
Dont you still owe me a meal?
What? Emily was puzzled.
Lets go. Without waiting for her reaction, Baron grabbed her hand and walked through the narrow alley towards the Green Haven Estate.
Once again being suddenly held by him, Emily was unsure of what to do for a moment, Hey, what are you doing
Not far from the alley entrance, behind the sapphire blue sports car, a pair of high-heeled sandals slowly stepped down from a ck jeep, then followed into the alley as well.
Looking at the brightly lit attic on the fifth level, Cam Walker clenched her fists again. In the moonlight, her sinister expression could be easily seen.
How dare a lowly person like herpete with Cam for a man? What an overestimation of her abilities.
Up in the attic, Baron surveyed the tiny little room, small living room, minuscule bathroom, and even the petite kitchen, unconsciously furrowing his brows.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
In the empty small living room, there was only a wooden table and a set of wooden chairs, nothing else for furniture. In the room, there was only a single bed and an old wardrobe.
Could this really be a ce for a person to live in? Baron couldnt help but grumble silently.
Wait here, Ill go and cook the noodles. Emily nced at him and went into the kitchen with the instant noodles.
She really couldnt understand this man. The big BOSS of the Futuren Group, deserting a fine dining restaurant toe here and eat instant noodles, had he gone brain dead?
Standing at the kitchen doorway, she took another look at the man in the living room before turning around to walk to the kitchen counter. After washing the pot and filling it with water for the two packets of noodles, she turned on the liquefied gas. While waiting for the water to boil, she opened the refrigerator and took out two eggs.
After mixing the eggs and egg whites, she took out a tomato and sliced it.
In the living room, Baron scanned the surroundings, thinking that if he were any taller, he would have outgrown the ce.
Pulling out the small wooden chair beside the tiny wooden table, Baron sat down while waiting for his dinner.
The already small living room appeared even more cramped now with this big guy upying it.
Bang! Just as Baron sat on the wooden chair, he suddenly fell to the ground, and the small chair copsed.

Emily Walker, who was standing in the kitchen, rushed out when she heard the noise. Seeing the scene in the living room, she was stunned.
Looking at the little wooden chair that had broken under his weight, Baron Stuart was so angry that he was speechless!
He lifted his head, his expression unhappy, and looked at Emily at the kitchen entrance, Couldnt you choose a better house?
Seeing his angry expression, Emily was also somewhat embarrassed. But who doesnt want to live in a good house? The key question is whether they can afford it! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The rent is too expensive, she replied honestly.
Then buy some better furniture! Baron Stuart was clearly not pleased, looking at the broken little wooden chair, he had nowhere to vent his frustration.
We cant even afford the house, why should we need good furniture!? Does he think everyone is like him? Simply signing a few documents brings in thousands in USD, he doesnt know how hard its for her and others to make money.
She couldnt help but roll her eyes, turned around and headed back to the kitchen to continue cooking instant noodles!
Ten plus minutester, two bowls of steaming hot instant noodles were ready.
Even before the noodles were served, Baron Stuart in the living room had already smelled the appetizing aroma that he was experiencing for the first time, and he couldnt help but get up curiously and go to the kitchen.
Yours, take them out, seeing hime in, Emily ced a pair of chopsticks on his portion, signaling him to take it out himself, she also picked up her portion.
Seeing her carrying a portion of noodles out, Baron Stuart learned from her and picked up his part.
The two of them sat in the small living room, facing each other as they ate dinner.
Since Emily was really too hungry, she couldnt help eating somewhat rapidly. After all, eating noodles should be done with relish!
Seeing her eating like this, Baron Stuart was somewhat taken aback.
Shouldnt a woman eat gracefully? What is she doing?
Emily looked up while eating, only to find the man across her was watching her, she was puzzled, Whats wrong? Is it not delicious?
She knew it, how could a noble like him eat such stuff?
Actually, Emily doesnt usually eat in an untidy manner, she was just too hungry today and ate a bit hastily.
No, After that, Baron Stuart continued to bow his head and eat the tomato boiled noodles, which actually tasted not bad.
Emily also continued to eat her noodles with her head down.
Seeing her relishing the food, Baron Stuart inexplicably felt a bit annoyed.
Whats wrong now? Seeing him staring at her expressionless again, Emily was perplexed.
Why are you, a woman, eating so much? What if you gain weight? After saying that, Baron Stuart stretched his chopsticks into Emilys bowl, picked up some noodles, and put them into his bowl.
Seeing his sudden action, Emily waspletely taken aback, her face full of astonishment!
What the heck was this man doing? Fighting her for noodles? He still had plenty in his bowl, why would he take hers!
And also, when did she gain weight!?
I tell you- I Emily wanted to say something, but she was at a loss for words, she didnt know what to say, so she could only frown at the man in front of her. But then again, was this man not scared of her germs? That was the food she had eaten.
After taking the noodles, Baron Stuart no longer looked at her and started eating the noodles in big bites. He had finished his bowl of noodles, even the soup, while Emily stared at him in amazement.
For the first time, Baron Stuart felt that dinner was so delicious, he was satisfyingly full..

However, after only eating half a bowl of noodles, Emily Walker was still a bit hungry. So she decided to make a cup of milk tea to satiate her hunger.
Seeing that the man was still sitting there, she decided to make another cup for him as well.
But the man had already finished his dinner, why hadnt he nned to leave?
Here. After making the milk tea, Emily handed the cup to him.
Looking at the color in the cup that was lighter than coffee, Baron Stuart couldnt help asking, What is this?
Emily nced at him, her expression slightly unnatural, as if she was hiding something. She took a sip of the milk tea and said, Mandarin Duck Milk Tea. In fact, she didnt prepare the milk tea for him just because he had ordered it before. It was actually because she also loved this vor, so she kept some at home.
Unlike others who liked drinking coffee or fruit juice, the only drink she liked was milk tea, so at her home, there were only mineral water and milk tea.
Witnessing this, however, Baron Stuart had a different interpretation.
He looked at the milk tea in front of him and then at the woman sitting opposite to him.
Mandarin Duck Milk Tea? Wasnt this the cup that he had ordered at the Milk Tea Shop before?
Again, he looked at the woman in front of him, who still had the cup held close to her lips. Her eyes were shifty, like she was trying to hide something, and her expression was quite unnatural.
Noticing her expression, Baron Stuart couldnt help but smile. N?v(el)B\\jnn
Then he took a sip of the milk tea.
From that moment on, it seemed that Baron Stuart fell in love with this vor.
Seeing his unconsciously upturned lips, Emily knew that the man must have misunderstood something.
She just wanted to say, its not that I remembered your taste.
The next day
Emily arrived early at the Futuren Group Reception Hall, and yton Howard was already waiting for her there.
Lady Carter. Upon her arrival, yton came forward with a polite smile, and then said, Please follow me.
Seeing yton walking alone in front of her, Emily couldnt help but wonder.
She knew that this man was connected to that man, but why would he appear here? She was just here for a simple interview, was there really a need for him to be here to receive her personally?
Following yton with a puzzled mind, Emily entered the elevator, which went directly to the Human Resources Department on the 2nd floor.
Originally, Emily thought that she would definitely not pass the interview, but who knew that the interviewer would say straight away to her, Wee to the
Futuren Group.
Seeing the interviewer stand up and shake her hand, Emily was dumbfounded for a moment.
Looking at the outstretched hand in front of her, she politely shook it out of courtesy, but then looked back at the young interviewer with confusion on her face.
She carefully asked, Are you sure theres no mistake? I got the job?
This made no sense!
She had just nced at the employee information, and to enter Futuren Group, one must graduate from an elite university, that was first and secondly the design work must be unique and innovative.
She didnt know whether her works were good enough or not, but there was one thing; based on this single point, there was no reason for her to be admitted!
Although she had once studied at an elite university in E City, she had only reached her Sophomore year. She didnt even have a university diploma, so howe she got epted?
With her counter-question, the interviewer looked a bit uncertain.
Whats the deal with this woman? Most people would be overjoyed to be epted by Futuren Group and would jump up and down, eximing, Really?
Really!? Did I really get epted!?
Chapter 89 - 89: 89: Taking Over the Big Project!

Well! Generally, thats how it should be!
But whats the deal with this woman in front of him? Shes actually asking if he made a mistake?
Oh Maybe shes so happy that she couldnt believe it, thinking shes in a dream.
The interviewer looked at Emily Walker and casually offered a smile, No, youre not dreaming. You have been epted.
Still dumbfounded.
But isnt there a lot of requirements to join the Futuren Group? For instance, the simplest one C a university diploma. I dont even have a diploma, how did you guys ept me?
Now its the interviewers turn to be stupefied.
It took him half a moment to regain hisposure and looked at Emily. Miss, what are you talking about? After that, the interviewer brought a personnel document from the table in front of her. Your name is Emily Walker, right? You have been epted. This is your personal information.
It clearly states on the personnel document that Emily Walker graduated from xx Prestigious Academy in E City in 2014. Since the personnel records have been registered, there must be a diploma. How could thepany register her personnel files without a diploma?
Looking at the personnel information above, Emily waspletely dumbfounded. When did she graduate from xx Prestigious Academy?
Also, our Design Department Director admires your works. Thats why you were epted when you submitted your resume yesterday. The interviewer added.
Submitted the resume yesterday? When did she submit her resume yesterday?
Just like that, with a baffling feeling, Emily Walker officially became an employee of the Futuren Group!
In theprehensive office, Emily sat at her designated office space, looking at the vast office where everyone was working hard with a serious atmosphere.
As expected from argepany, there wasnt any office gossip like what she saw on television.
All she could see now were work-rted conversations, not a hint of small talk.
Until noon, thats what Emily thought.
But as soon as lunchtime arrived, the staff canteen got noisy, and the atmosphere waspletely different from the office before.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Then, when the afternoon work started, the office atmosphere returned to its strict nature.
Prepare for an emergency meeting in 10 minutes. A crisp female voice rang out, and Design Department Director Megan Scott walked out of her independent office, addressing the staff in theprehensive office.
No sooner had she spoken than the office staff began preparing the rted documents and files. Neer Emily, however, was at a loss as to what to do for a moment.
She had no choice but to ask a colleague beside her, Hi, do I have to attend the emergency meeting that the director mentioned?
Her colleague looked at her and said irritably, Of course you have to attend. Arent you part of the Design Department? Really!
After speaking, the colleague picked up the relevant documents and left their office seat, heading for the meeting room.
One after another, each group in the design department entered the meeting room. Emily felt a little clueless but followed them in.
The corporation will soon be building a vi estate on Light View Road. Regarding the interior design theme, the primary focus should befort, innovation, and rity
Listening to Director Megan Scott speaking while standing by the projection wall, Emily couldnt help but feel astonished. Just recently, she heard a report that the Futuren Group had sold arge residential area of vis, and now they were going to build a new vi estate on Light View Road so quickly..

Trantor: 549690339
As expected from a big corporation, in less than half a year, she had made a fortune in USD!
Looking at the projection of the vis appearance, Emily Walker was too engrossed and didnt notice Megan Scott calling her name.
Emily Walkern/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Huh? She snapped back to reality and realized that everyone in the meeting room was looking at her. She awkwardly stood up and looked at Megan Scott, Yes, Director Scott.
Megan Scott nced at her, slightly dissatisfied with her daydreaming, but didnt say much about it.
She was a very strict person, especially when it came to management. She was very meticulous with her subordinates and didnt tolerate any mistakes.
So, daydreaming during her meetings was even more uneptable.
It was precisely because of her rigorous attitude that many female employees in the office secretly called her the Old Maiden!
Actually, she wasnt that old, of course, but at 28 years old, she was older than most of them.
Emilys daydreaming gave Megan Scott a bad impression.
After observing Emily for a while, Megan Scott finally spoke expressionlessly,
Im giving you this theme design project, I hope you wont disappoint me.
As soon as Megan Scott said this, everyone in the small meeting room widened their eyes in surprise and looked at Emily Walker.
Some even started whispering amongst themselves.
Why did they give this project to her? Isnt she new here?
Exactly, why does she get such a big project as soon as she arrives? When we first came in, we were just running errands at most.
The people sitting on either side of Emily had already started to feel jealous, casting disdainful nces at her.
Director Scott, why would you give such a big project to a neer? What makes her deserving? Someone who couldnt hold back their discontent stood up and protested.
In the design department, Zoe Wood was known for her strong capabilities. Many big projects were assigned to her. Naturally, she felt uneasy when a neer took this one away from her.
Megan Scott was, of course, aware of Zoes capabilities.
But the reason she assigned this project to the neer Emily was due to her momentary oversight.
The previous day, yton Howard brought in several design works, which Megan was indeed amazed by, but she didnt know that they were Emilys designs.
When yton asked her: If you let this designer take on this theme design project, what would you think? Megan responded that she thought the works were very unique and she had faith in the designers abilities.
So, unknowingly, Megan Scott assigned the project to the new arrival, Emily Walker.
Of course, after learning that it was Emily who was new, she couldnt help but feel a little uneasy.
But deep down, she was somewhat curious about Emilys identity, which seemed to be very special.
Megan Scott nced at the unconvinced Zoe Wood, then picked up several design drafts from Emily in front of her, These are Emilys design samples. Do you all have any objections?
Upon hearing that, many people leaned in to take a look at Emilys design works.
Is this really her design Zoe Wood looked at the design drawings in her hand, seemingly unable to believe that such a unique design came from the neer, Emily Walker.
Although she was still resentful at heart, Zoe Wood had nothing more to say. She reluctantly sat back down, her face a little unsightly..

Is there no more opinions? Seeing that the people who were whispering before had quieted down, Megan Scott spoke, Dismiss.
When the meeting was dismissed, everyone took their document files and left the meeting room, only Emily Walker was still a little confused.
Director Scott. Everyone else had left the meeting room, leaving Emily Walker and Director Scott alone. As she was about to leave, Emily called out to Megan.
Why why did you give me such a big project? Im new here, and I havent done anything like this before
If I knew you didnt have much design experience before, I wouldnt have given you this project. But your works are indeed very attractive, and I hope you can do well this time as well.
Having said that, Megan ignored Emily and left the meeting room directly.
Just like that, Emily once again mysteriously took over a design theme project
Top floor of Futuren Group, CEOs office.
Hows it going? In the spacious office, a man elegantly leaned against the brown genuine leather chair, exuding a kings style.
yton Howard stood straight in the office, bowing respectfully, Lady Carter has sessfully entered the Design Department, and ording to your orders, the design theme at Light View Road has been taken over by Lady Carter.
Although yton knew that his master seemed to have unusual thoughts towards Lady Carter, even he was a little uneasy about entrusting such arge project to a neer.
Young Lord, is it appropriate to give such a big project to Lady Carter?
Upon hearing this, Baron Stuart raised his charming eyes and looked at yton, Do you know a kind of milk tea that has mandarin duck vor? yton looked bbergasted.
It took him half a moment toe back to his senses, Mandarin Duck Milk
Tea?
Yes. Baron Stuart nodded.
For some reason, after tasting the coffee on the table, he suddenly missed the taste of mandarin duck milk tea.
yton hesitated for a moment before saying, Mandarin Duck Milk Tea seems to be a drink from Hong Kong that is a blend of coffee and milk tea. Why?
Would the Young Lord like
Have Bet Philine make a cup for me.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
yton waspletely stunned. When did the young lord start drinking milk tea? Wasnt that stuff usually a favorite of women?
Milk tea is indeed a favorite of female students. However, not all female students love Mandarin Duck Milk Tea because the bitterness of coffee makes it the least popr of all vors.
Alright. Although confused, yton exited the room, instructing Bet Philine, who was by the front door, to make a cup of Mandarin Duck Milk Tea.
Upon hearing the instruction, Bet wore a puzzled expression. When did the boss start drinking milk tea?
However, she had no idea where to get milk tea at the moment.
With no other choice, Bet went to buy milk tea from a beverage shop downstairs in the building.
After ten-plus minutes, the milk tea was brought to the office.
After a sip, it seemed not the right taste.
Too sweet. It wasnt this taste; he remembered the bitterness like coffee thest time he drank it, with a rich aroma in the bitterness.
But this one was too sweet now!
But Boss, mandarin duck milk tea is supposed to be sweet Philineined, looking at the dissatisfied expression on the Bosss face.
Frowning at her words, Baron Stuart was certain that the taste he remembered previously wasnt sweet..

Chapter 92 - 92: 92 Homeless
Trantor: 549690339
Please leave.
Yes. Phn left the office, also breathing a sigh of relief.
However, what surprised her was that she originally thought that Mr. Boss would lose his temper, because whenever there was the slightest issue in the past, the bosss face would look like it was carved out of an iceberg, chilling people to their core and making them dare not breathe.
Yet today, everything was peaceful, which was incredibly unusual.
After being busy all day, at 5:25, the people in the office were already packing up their stuff and preparing to leave work.
Emily Walker spent the whole afternoon working on a proposal, by the time she came to her senses, her waist was aching and she couldnt help but stretch to relieve the stiffness of her body.
I really dont know what kind of rtionship she and the director have. She took over such an important project as soon as she came!
Who knows, at any rate, the rtionship must be unusual, otherwise how could she take over such a vital design n!
In the office, many off-duty staff members passed by Emily Walker. Thinking about how she had taken over such a critical design n, they inevitably felt a touch of jealousy, which led to the outpour of uncensored words.
Perhaps even Emily herself was a bit baffled about this, but design had always been her dream. If given such a good opportunity, she naturally wanted to do her best, and so she didnt care about others idle gossip.
Packing up her belongings, Emily also began to turn off herputer in preparing to leave work.
At the front of thepany building, there was a bus stop just a few steps away.
Once she got on the bus, since it was rush hour, the aisle was already full of passengers. When Emily got on, she was squeezed into the crowd and was nearly crushed!
After painstakingly enduring five stops, she finally arrived at the Green Haven
Estate.
As usual, in order to save a bit of living expenses, Emily went to the convenience store at the end of the alley, bought a few packets of noodles, and prepared to have it for dinner.
Going out to eat would cost at least several tens of yuan, while she only needed a few yuan to cook noodles at home, which could save a lot of money a month.
Of course, she would sometimes get tired of eating noodles and would go to the snack stall to eat something else, to adjust her taste.
Carrying the instant noodles, she arrived at her fifth-floor residence. To be honest, climbing up to the fifth floor in one go left Emily somewhat out of breath.
However, when she saw what was happening at the front door, she was a bit taken aback.
Why were all her belongings outside?
She took out the key and opened the door, it was entirely empty inside.
How strange, had she been robbed? But if she had been robbed, what kind of thief would have moved her luggage out?
Emily!
The voice of thendy sounded from behind, and Emily turned her head when she heard it. Upon seeing her, Emily be increasingly distressed.
Mrs. Landy, why are my things outside? And the furniture inside, why is it all gone?
Thendy looked at her, her expression somewhat embarrassed. Sheughed apologetically and said, Emily, Im really sorry. This house was bought by a buyer, so you have to move out.
What? It was bought?
Emily was utterly stunned, how did it suddenly get bought by someone?
But, Mrs. Landy, why didnt you tell me in advance? If she was to move out tonight, where was she supposed to go at such short notice?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Im really sorry. Because the buyer wanted the house urgently, I had to sell it. Thendy was also somewhat embarrassed about the situation and exined, You know, this type of houses are not worth much now. I finally met a buyer who was willing to pay a high price, of course, I sold it..

Indeed, such a dangerous tower is basically unupied now, let alone anyoneing to buy it.
Well, this is the rest of your rent, which Im returning to you. I wont charge you for the broken chair either. Give me the key. After finishing, thendy stuffed the money into Emily Walkers hands and took the key from her.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The broken chair?
But. Landy. cant you let me stay one more night? lust one night! Even if she needed to find a house, it would have to wait until tomorrow.
Im really sorry, but Ive already sold this house, and I cant let you stay. With that, thendy hurriedly turned around and left.
Watching the retreatingndy, Emily wanted to say something, but eventually gave up.
After half a moment, she dragged her luggage, carried the instant noodles, and left Green Haven Estate.
As dusk fell, the citys lights dimmed, and Emily walked along the roadside of the bustling street, not having eaten dinner yet, she felt a little hungry.
Looking at the instant noodles in her hand, she had no choice but to eat them dry, which could at least fill her stomach.
Not far away, she saw a bus stop. Feeling tired, she sat down and ate the dry noodles, thinking that tonight, she might have to visit her brother in the hospital again.
Watching the busy road, Emily enjoyed the bustling night view of the metropolis while eating. Suddenly, a red sports car stopped in front of her.
Looking at the woman sitting under the signboard, Adrian Nash thought he was seeing things and took off his sunsses. Emily What is she doing here?
Then, he noticed the luggage box beside her.
Noticing the red sports car, Emily stared at the car window while chewing the dry noodles, trying to see the person inside.
The car window ss slowly lowered, revealing a handsome, charming face. Even under the nights streetmps, his stunning features were still visible.
Emily! Adrian Nash shouted to Emily under the signboard.
Following the sound, Emily immediately spotted the head outside the car window.
Wasnt that her former boss?
Standing up, Emily walked over with a surprised expression.
Boss?
Adrianughed and said, Youre no longer my employee, so stop calling me boss. Call me Adrian.
Adrian? Emily was embarrassed, that was quick, from boss to Adrian on their second meeting.
What are you doing here? Adrian nced at her luggage and the dry noodles in her hand.
It was not hard to see that the woman in front of him seemed to be in some kind of trouble.
I Realizing his gaze, Emily looked back at her luggage, then clenched the dry noodles in her hand.
Why arent you going home at thiste hour, youre a girl? Adrian asked, looking at her.
Another difficult question to answer.
After a while, Emily forced a smile, looking a bit awkward, Some things happened, so I temporarily have no ce to stay. Im going to the hospitalter.
No ce to stay?
Emily, who was already attractive to Adrian, evoked even more sympathy from him.
What do you need to go to the hospital for if you have no ce to stay? Adrian asked, puzzled.
Emily smiled and replied, My little brother is hospitalized, so I n to spend the night there tonight and find a house tomorrow..

How can anyone stay in a hospital? Why dont you stay at my ce for one night? Adrian Nash blurted out.
Someone like her probably couldnt afford a VIP ward, and if it was an ordinary ward, there wouldnt even be an extra bed inside. How could she sleep?
But his words left Emily Walker dumbfounded, staring at him nkly and uncertainly frowning, What?
Regaining his senses, Adrian realized his words were somewhat abrupt and quickly changed his tune, No, I just think a hospital is not a ce for people to stay, so why dont you stay at my family hotel for one night?
He couldnt understand why, upon seeing her wandering the streets, he wanted to take her back to his ce.
Even though he felt there was something different about her, he seemed to be affected by her uniqueness.
Emily was dumbfounded once again, and when she came to her senses, she said, No need, Ill just go to the hospital.
Hearing this, Adrian pursed his lips as if contemting something.
After a moment, he opened the car door and got out, his gaze fixed directly on the person in front of him, Emily Walker?
Uh? Faced with his scorching gaze, Emily instinctively dodged it for a moment before nodding, Yes.
I dont know why, but from the moment I saw you, I really wanted to get to know you. Adrian said seriously, the corner of his mouth curling into a gentle
smile.
He didnt quite understand his own thoughts at the moment, but his words were sincere. He truly wanted to get to know this girl, even wanting to understand her on a deeper level.
His sudden words left Emily speechless and unsure of how to respond.
Oh After a long while, she managed to squeeze out a single word.
Would you like to be friends with me? Her dumbfounded look brought a bitter, helpless smile to Adrians lips as he reached out his hand to her.
Looking at the clean, white hand in front of her, Emily hesitated for a moment before reaching out to shake it, Hehe of course.
Seeing her outstretched hand, Adrian gave a satisfied smile, Since were friends now, how about staying at my hotel for tonight as a friend?
Dont worry, theres no charge. Were friends, arent we?
His gentle smile left Emily momentarily speechless, feeling awkward whether she agreed or not.
After all, they had only met for the second time, and this man had once been her boss.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
I really dont
Come on, lets go. Letting go of her hand, Adrian walked behind her, picked up her luggage, and put it in the trunk.
He then got back in the car himself and looked at the still hesitant Emily, Lets go, friend!
Is this really okay?
Emily was still somewhat hesitant, but her luggage was already in the car, so it seemed like she had no choice but to get in herself?
Thus, she followed Adrian Nash to the Sea Sky Grand Hotel.
After checking in, Adrian led her to the elevator entrance and pressed the button for the 15th floor.
Just as the two entered the elevator, the doors of another elevator opened, and a man exuding coldness and nobility stepped out, his tall and upright figure walking gracefully towards the hotel entrance.
At the hotel entrance at this moment, yton Howard wore a puzzled expression as he watched the two entering the hotel together, wondering to himself: Wasnt that Lady Carter and Young Master Nash? What are they doing here?
And with luggage in tow..

Whats wrong? Baron Stuart asked, walking out of the hotel and noticing the dazed look on yton Howards face.
ncing at the not far away, then turned back and said, I think I just saw Lady
Carter.
Hearing that, Baron Stuart narrowed his pupils, waiting for him to continue.
With the Monk Prince, it seems like they were
Go on. The man seemed to predict something, and his expression began to turn cold, revealing a barely-suppressed rage about to erupt.
It seems like they checked into a room.
The hand in the mans trouser pocket gradually tightened, and his ice-cold expression was filled with suppressed anger!
A few secondster, the man took out his phone and dialed a number.
Pushing open the door to the room, she found it incredibly luxurious, a luxury suite.
Thank you so much. Emily Walker brought in her luggage, filled with gratitude, and thanked Adrian Nash.
No problem, put your stuff in first. With that, Adrian Nash carried her luggage box in for her.
At this moment, the phone in Emilys bag suddenly rang.
She pondered over the unfamiliar phone number for a while but still answered the call.
Hello?
Where are you? A mans cold and distant voice came through, carrying a clear hint of displeasure.
Despite the unfamiliar number, Emily wasnt a stranger to the icy voice that now sounded more like a chilling wind.
She wondered why he was calling her at this time.
After a moment of silence, Emily did not give a straight answer but asked instead, Do you need anything from me?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She figured that since she was off work, she shouldnt be considered his employee anymore.
Where are you!? The man growled, barely able to suppress the rage threatening to burst forth.
Emily was startled by his anger, unsure of what he was upset about.
What a mercurial fellow, yelling at her out of the blue!
Emily, annoyed, replied, Where could I possibly be at this time!? Of course, Im at
The voice paused, for some inexplicable reason, Emily instinctively didnt want that man to know she was staying in a hotel.
If she hadnt been on a leave of absence, Emily would still be a college student. It would ruin her reputation to let people know she was staying in a hotel room.
After a few seconds of silence, Emily continued with annoyance, Of course, Im at my ce, about to take a bath, and then go to bed!
She didnt mention being in the hotel, as if she was afraid of the man on the other end of the phone misunderstanding her.
But why would she care if that man misunderstood her? Her lifestyle was none of his business, right?
However, her words only enraged the man on the other end of the phone even more!
At her ce!? Then who was at the hotel right now!?
Take a bath? Go to bed? Was she really so eager to sleep with other men!?
That damn woman, daring to deceive him! Fine, very well!
The phone suddenly disconnected, and Baron Stuart turned back into the hotel, heading straight for the reception desk. His crimson eyes were aze with fury, making his icy, aloof face unapproachable, like a volcano on the brink of eruption!
Looking at the abruptly disconnected call, Emily was puzzled and confused.
Whats wrong with that man?
What happened? Noticing the odd tone in her voice, Adrian Nash walked over and nced at the phone in her hand, asking.
ps: Mias new book Honorable Young Lord, Busy in the Deep Night! has been published (currently free!), and we hope all our dear readers continue to support it, leavements, and add to their collections, mwah!

Hm? Emily Walker raised her head, and after half a second, she smiled back, Uh, its alright.
Ive brought the stuff in, and its still early, do you want to have dinner together? When he had arrived, she was eating dry noodles, so she probably hadnt had dinner yet.
Adrian Nash smiled at her, seemingly attracted by the girl in front of him.
As for his invitation, Emily hesitated for a moment before saying, No need, I have Ive already eaten.
Although she had only eaten instant noodles, at least it had filled her stomach, and she wasnt that hungry anymore.
Most importantly, she was in a hotel now, and she didnt want to go in and out, let alone with a man, even though the man in front of her wasnt the yboy type.
However, no matter what, Emily still wanted to be discreet in the hotel, it would be best to sleep in her room and leave here early tomorrow morning!
You ate that? Adrian nced at the red bag she was still holding in her hand.
Emily lowered her head to look at it then realized she had been gripping the dry noodles tightly until now and quickly threw them into the trash can!
Knock, knock, knock, knock!
The rapid knocking on the door interrupted their conversation.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The two of them looked at the door being knocked on; both furrowed their brows in confusion.
Who would be knocking at this time? And why did it sound so urgent!
One could tell it was an impolite person.
Watching the continuous knocking, Emily couldnt help but feel uneasy for no reason.
Adrian looked at her and then walked over with a puzzled expression, opening the room door.
Inside the room, a man and a woman stood in front of him, which only made Baron Stuart even angrier.
Young Lord? Howe youre here? His appearance made Adrian curious.
But soon, he felt like he understood something.
It seemed that the rtionship between him and Emily was extraordinary, and the hardships created by his fiancest time were probably not a coincidence.
Baron Stuarts face was ice cold, the rage inside him ready to burst; he nced at Adrian disdainfully before turning his attention to Emily, who stood behind him.
This damn woman, she actually dide here to get a room with another man!?
He clenched his fists at his side, his blood-red pupils almost wanting to swallow her whole.
Seeing such a gaze, Emily shivered, and feeling guilty, she didnt dare to meet his eyes.
Is this where youre staying? Baron Stuart asked coldly, trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart.
Emily raised her eyes, but still didnt dare to meet his gaze.
Taking a bath? Sleeping? Youre so eager to get into bed with another man!? With the thought of her words on the phone, Baron Stuarts anger could no longer be contained!
She had actually gotten a room with this man, and if he hadnte, would she have already finished showering and been waiting for this man in bed by now?
His angry roar made Emily look up abruptly, what did he mean she was eager to go to bed with other men? What was he talking about?
What what did you say? Emily asked uncertainly, hoping she had misheard just now.
For some reason, those wordsing from his mouth made her heart sting unexpectedly.
Baron Stuart stared at her, his eyes blood-red, Didnt you say you were staying at your own ce? What, you dont have enough money? nning to make some extra cash?

Listening to his words, Emily Walkers hands hanging by her sides were shaking slightly as they clenched together, finally realizing the meaning behind this mans words.
Oh, so ironic.
So what if it is? What does that have to do with you, Young Master Stuart? Emily Walker stared at him, her eyes tinted with defiance due to anger.
Somehow, even though it indeed had nothing to do with him, the words he uttered still left her heart throbbing with pangs of pain.
She didnt understand where this feeling came from. No matter what he said, she just needed to ignore it. But why did she care so much?
Her words angered him even more. He had no rtion to it? Howe he had none when she was his, both in mind and body. Since that night, she was destined to only belong to him!
Is it money? Do you want money? How much? $200,000 per urrence? Or $1.5 million for a single night? Baron Stuart looked at him, eyes brimming with rage.
Had she gone crazy from poverty? Did she actually think about trading her body for money?
True, Im in need of money, but what does that have to do with you? On what grounds are you here, and why are you meddling in my affairs!? The tears she was forcibly holding back were stubbornly kept in her eyes, but the pain in her chest was impossible to suppress.
Adrian Nash, who had been on the sidelines, could no longer bear his words and took a step in front of Emily Walker, Young Stuart, arent you going too far with your words?
Baron Stuart turned his head, a sneer tugging at his mouth, Isnt Young Nash being too presumptuous in snapping up my woman, is that not going too far?
At his words, Adrian Nash froze. She was his woman?
He turned his head and looked at Emily Walker.
At that time, Emily Walker was also taken aback by his words, but she soon recovered and mockingly said, Ha, when did I be your woman? Young Stuart, your fiance is Cam Walker, not me!
I dont care who Cam Walker is! Baron Stuart roared, then looked at her calmly and slowly muttered a few words, I just want you! What?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
For a moment, Emily Walker fell silent and nkly stared at him.
What did he mean by that? What was this man here for today?
After staring at her for a long time, Baron Stuart abruptly stepped forward and pulled her hand, turning around to leave the hotel room.
Coming back to her senses, Emily Walker tried struggling to break free of his grip, What are you doing? Let me go
However, he did not let go. His grip on her hand tightened even more, dragging her straight to the elevator!
My luggage Seeing the elevator doors closing, Emily panicked and turned to yell at the man beside her, What on earth are you trying to do!?
Baron Stuart remained silent. When the elevator arrived at the first floor, he dragged her towards the hotel entrance, heading straight for his white Maserati.
Emily did not want to get into the car, but he still forcibly pushed her inside.
From beginning to now, the anger on Baron Stuarts face never disappeared. He stepped on the gas and the luxury car sped through the bustling downtown.
Where on earth are you taking me!? Looking at the man full of rage, Emily Walker was also annoyed!
A ringtone broke the silence, interrupting Emilys outburst momentarily.
He picked up the Bluetooth headset, and Baron Stuart answered the call.
Who knows what was said on the other end of the phone, but Baron Stuarts eyes flickered and some of the anger on his face seemed to diminish, I understand.
After hanging up the phone, Baron Stuart spun the steering wheel, driving the car away from the bustling district..

Half an hourter, the car stopped in front of a luxury mansion.
The grand European architecture, standing not far away, one could clearly see the floor-to-ceiling windows on the second floor, the green-tile sloping roof, surrounded by green trees, and the white European-style wooden windows. At a nce, it looked grand and imposing.
Looking at such a mansion in front of her, Emily Walker was puzzled.
What is this ce? Why did you bring me hereI
Before she could finish speaking, the man beside her took her hand and led her inside.
Entering the living room, it was not ostentatious, but quiet and elegant. White wooden windows, white printed curtains, and even the furniture was predominantly white. The whole room looked clean and simple, especially the interior design, which gave people a feeling of rxation and enjoyment.
Emily couldnt help but sigh at such interior design. Living in such an environment would surely befortable.
From today onwards, you will live here.
yton Howard just called, and upon checking, she learned that her previous small attic was suddenly bought by a buyer, leaving her without a ce to stay and homeless.
However, he still didnt understand how she met Adrian Nash and even stayed in his hotel.
What? Emily turned her head and looked at him with a puzzled expression. Live here? Why?
Baron Stuart looked up, his anger not so obvious on his face, and asked rhetorically, Do you have any better ce to stay right now?
Emily was stunned. She really had no ce to stay tonight.
However, she didnt have to live here, did she? And her luggage was still in the hotel!
Seeing her silent, he thought she might not want to live here, and his mood that had calmed down suddenly became irritable again.
Looking at the person in front of him, he impatiently asked, Where else do you want to live? Do you want to live in his bed!?
Just thinking about her and other men living together made him inexplicably annoyed.
Whats wrong with me living in his bed? On the contrary, you, Young Lord,
Being questioned by her, Baron Stuart became even angrier!
This damn woman had taken away his body, and she still dared to say it had nothing to do with him?
It seemed he had to make her realize if there was a connection between them!
Words were useless; he needed to take practical actions!
You What are you doing? Seeing him suddenly approaching her step by step,
Emily looked shocked, and a sense of unease rose in her heart.
What on earth did this man want?
The unknown man remained silent, his handsome face revealing no thoughts, but from Emilys consciousness, she felt a strong sense of oppression and danger.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
With each step he took toward her, her anxiety grew, What what on earth do you want to do
The man remained silent, his magical pupils fixed on her, as he continued to approach her relentlessly.
Step by step, Emily retreated until she could retreat no further. Unable to guard against it, she fell onto the European-style soft sofa in the living room.
However, the man didnt stop there. Instead, he towered over her, supporting himself on the back of the sofa, trapping her tightly between his arms. His face leaning down slightly.
Tell me, do you and I have a connection? The mans unique scent slowly approached her, his captivating eyes staring at her unblinkingly, their lips only two centimeters apart..

Trantor: 549690339
Seeing the handsome face approaching her step by step, Emily Walker had nowhere to hide, yet she stubbornly retorted, What rtionship do I have with
They had no rtionship to begin with, oh, no, they should have one now.
Are you sure theres nothing going on between us, huh? The man pressed closer again.
No, not nothing, there is a rtionship Emily admitted, blushing slightly at the mans unique aura, her heart beginning to thump.
Her sudden turnaround surprised Baron Stuart somewhat, but her next words made him even more furious!
The rtionship between a superior and subordinate
What? A superior and subordinate rtionship? Was this damned woman challenging him!?
Im giving you onest chance, do you have a rtionship with me or not? The man pressed again, his tone revealing the domineering air of a king, making Emily feel very oppressed.
What kind of rtionship? Isnt it just a superior-subordinate rtionship? What the hell does this man want!?
Because of his closeness, Emily averted her gaze and turned her head to one side.
Tell me, are you really- Emilys attempt to fight back unintentionally caused her head to turn back, and she caught sight of the sexy thin lips just two centimeters away from her own, easily touching them with a gentle brush.
This scene made her quickly turn her head away once more, her cheeks turning even redder as she lightly bit her lower lip.
But this simple action made Baron Stuart pause, taking a nce at her lightly bitten pink lip, he fell silent for half a second, then abruptly stood up from the sofa!
His adams apple shifted slightly as he looked away, seemingly trying to conceal something.
After a moment, he spoke unhappily, Youll live here starting today!
What gives you the right! Feeling relieved, Emily suddenly sat up straight on the sofa and asked righteously.
Want to know why? Baron Stuart looked at her, the corner of his mouth suddenly revealing a meaningful smile.
The anxiety returned.
First, run for a second!
Emily suddenly jumped up from the sofa, sprinting in a few strides straight to the second floor! She quickly hid in a room and closed the door with a bang! Then she pressed her ear against the door, carefully listening for any movement outside.
He didnt follow her, did he?
Watching the girl suddenly darting towards the second floor, Baron Stuart in the living room was still somewhat dazed, standing there nkly, his gaze following her upstairs.
When he regained his senses, he revealed a faint smile that was barely visible unless looked at closely.
Not knowing how much time had passed, and feeling certain that there was no movement outside the door, the girl behind the door cautiously opened it a crack and peered outside.
The silence outside was unsettling, and after a while, Emily tiptoed out of the room and stood in the corridor on the second floor, looking down. At this time, there was no trace of anyone in the living room.
Did he leave?
With a puzzled heart, Emily went downstairs.
Perhaps the noodles she had eaten earlier made her especially thirsty now, and she longed for a cold ss of water.
She went downstairs, nced around, and her gaze fell on the kitchen direction to the left of the living room.
That should be the kitchen, right?
Going over, pushing open the door, she saw an exquisitely decorated spacious kitchen, which was tens of times better than her previous home!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Spotting a refrigerator, Emily walked over to it and found chilled water inside, just as she had hoped..

Emily Walker took a ss cup, filled it to the brim, and drank it all in one breath. However, it still wasnt enough, so she poured herself another cup.
She held the water ss while admiring the gorgeous kitchen and walked out into the living room.
Arge white crystal chandelier hung in the middle of the living room, with the candlestick-style tablemps on the walls providing a unique touch.
Curious, Emily walked towards the back of the living room, where a white floor-to C ceiling window was located.
As she approached, she saw through the transparent window a private swimming pool outside, with crystal-clear water sparkling under the bright moonlight.
Emily was deeply captivated by this scene.
After a long time, she reluctantly turned around to go back inside.
Are you looking at
Just as she turned around, an exquisitely handsome face suddenly appeared in front of her. Startled, the water ss in her hand dropped to the ground, and her body shook slightly from the fright.
Baron Stuart, who arrived at this time, was taken aback by her sudden terrified expression.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He hade over because he saw the door open, and was about to speak when she turned around.
After getting a good look at who it was and realizing the sudden shock, Emily let out a sigh of relief, her right hand covering her chest, and took a deep breath.
Does this man not make any noise when he walks?
Its so quiet here at night, arent they afraid theyll startle someone to death?!
Seeing her terrified expression, Baron Stuart knew that his appearance had probably scared her, so he didnt speak and just watched her quietly, waiting for her to calm down.
Emily nced at the man in front of her and didnt say anything. Instead, she quickly squatted down to pick up the shattered ss on the ground.
Hey!
Just as Emilys hand had touched the fragments on the ground, she was startled by a sudden low growl, causing her hand to tremble involuntarily.
But this time, Emily was somewhat angry and looked up at the man, ring at him.
What are you doing?!
The man didnt speak but rather pulled Emily up, somewhat annoyed, before saying angrily, Dont you have any safety awareness? Picking up shattered ss with your bare hands?
This woman is really stupid, what if the ss cuts her hand?
But thinking about this, Baron Stuart suddenly felt that he seemed to care too much about the woman in front of him.
For a moment, Emily was rendered speechless by his words, staring at him nkly, with an expression of confusion on her face.
By the time she came to her senses, the man had gone inside and brought back cleaning tools.
Emily initially thought he would clean up the broken ss himself, but when he approached, she realized that he wasnt that considerate after all!
Use this.
Looking at the cleaning tools handed to her, Emily had a sinking feeling.
She cant believe she would think that this man would actually clean up the mess himself! She thought too much!
After cleaning up the fragments by the poolside, Emily returned to the living room. By this time, the man was already sitting inside the living room, watching her from afar, as if waiting for her to do something. Seeing the man sitting on the sofa intently watching her, Emily walked over but stopped some distance away, about two meters from the sofa.
Whats wrong? She asked instinctively.
Baron Stuart kept his eyes on her, and after a while, asked softly, As a woman, you should know how to cook dinner, right?

It was already 8:30 PM, and he should have had dinner at the French Restaurant with his client at 7:00 PM, right after leaving the hotel.
It was all because of the woman in front of him that he hadnt had dinner yet!
He suddenly realized that since he met this woman, his eating habits had be irregr!
What? Emily Walker didnt catch on for a moment.
Dinner, Baron Stuart spoke again, and then asked, Have you eaten?
Emily shook her head subconsciously and replied nkly, No.
She indeed hadnt eaten dinner, but she had already eaten some instant noodles.
Well, she seemed a bit hungry again.
Then remember to make a double portion. After saying this, Baron Stuart looked away and turned on the wall-mounted LCD TV, no longer paying attention to her.
It took Emily half a moment toe out of her daze.
What did this man say? She should cook dinner?
But she didnt know how.
Thinking about food, Emily also felt hungry, so with a tentative mindset, she slowly walked towards the kitchen.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Opening the refrigerator, there were plenty of ingredients inside, but sadly, she didnt know how to cook any of them
Among all the ingredients, Emily picked out two that she thought were rtively simple: tomatoes, eggnts, eggs, and shredded meat.
She remembered that her father often cooked minced pork with eggnt at home, and she had seen it many times, so it shouldnt be a problem.
Tomato and scrambled eggs should also be no problem since she often used tomatoes and eggs when cooking instant noodles.
Yeah, there shouldnt be any problem.
So, lets start!
She carefully cut the eggnt into small pieces, followed by tomatoes and eggs.
Now I should add the salt
Worried that she would make a mistake, she nervously started muttering to herself while cooking.
Salt where is the salt She nced at the kitchen counter and found it.
She added salt and some seasoning, and a te of tomato and scrambled eggs was ready!
It looked and smelled great!
Emily couldnt help but feel a little proud of her first-time cooking achievement.
Next up was minced pork with eggnt!
Add oil
Put in the pan
Then salt seasoning
Huh? She seemed to recall that her father added soy sauce when he cooked it.
Right, soy sauce!
After an hour of effort, her two simple dishes were finally ready!
A few minutester, Baron Stuart sat in front of the dining table, looking at the two dishes. Although they looked ordinary, the color seemed to indicate that they tasted good?
He nced at the woman sitting across from him, picked up his chopsticks and reached for the tomato and scrambled eggs, taking a small piece of egg and putting it in his mouth.
With high expectations, Baron Stuart chewed a few times, but his face soon turned a little odd, and his chewing mouth hesitated slightly.
Whats whats wrong? Sensing his change inplexion, Emily asked cautiously.
Baron raised his eyes to look at her, Have you ever cooked before?
Not understanding the meaning behind his words, Emily lowered her eyes and thought for a moment before looking up, Does cooking instant noodles count?
Oh, then no.
First time?
Yes. Emily nodded, realizing that today was indeed her first time cooking.
Lowering his eyes, Baron Stuart swallowed the egg in his mouth with difficulty.
This might be the worst dish he had eaten in his 28 years of life, but somehow, there was a different feeling in his heart.
This dinner tonight would indeed be unforgettable for him..

Swallowing the egg he had in his mouth, Baron Stuart looked up and moved on to the second dish: Minced Pork with Eggnt.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
I must say, judging by appearance alone, it looks quite appetizing, but Im not being hit with sweetness again, am I?
God knows, Baron Stuart detest nothing more than sweet stuff.
And in a dish, the thing he cannot stand the most is sourness.
Picking up a piece of eggnt gently, Baron Stuart looked at it before opening his mouth and putting in.
But what happened next
Uh-ck-
Due to her first attempt at cooking, Baron Stuart didnt want to spit out the food in his mouth. He swallowed it and looked at the woman in front of him.
What on earth did she put in these dishes? How could two dishes that looked quite good taste like this!?
Noticing his sudden change ofplexion, Emily Walker seemed to realize something and immediately picked up a piece of eggnt with her chopsticks.
Pfft-
As soon as it entered her mouth, Emily Walker immediately spat it out again, then looked apologetically at the man across from her, I-I think I mistook vinegar for soy sauce
Vinegar mistaken for soy sauce? And what about this one? Did she confuse sugar with salt?
Baron Stuart nced at the other te of Tomato and Scrambled Eggs, it must be the case!
Doesnt your family run a restaurant!? Wasnt your father a chef? How could you as a chefs daughter make such horrible-tasting food!
Or perhaps not wanting to me her, Baron Stuart choked back his words and simply put down his chopsticks.
So what if they run a restaurant? So what if shes a chefs daughter! Its her father, not herself, cooking the dishes!
In her twenty years of living, she has never been in the kitchen. The chefs cook in the restaurant, and at home its her dad doing the cooking. Heck, even Elia Parker hasnt cooked once.
So, its only logical that she cant cook.
Baron Stuart cast an impatient nce at the two dishes on the table, then looked up at the woman in front of him.
As a man, it wouldnt be a big deal to skip a meal, but for some reason, he picked up his chopsticks and bowl again and began to eat the sweet Tomato and Scrambled Eggs bite by bite.
Seeing him eat each bite without any signs of disgust, Emily Walker suddenly widened her eyes in surprise and stared at him in disbelief.
You How can he still eat this terrible food? Stop eating!
Emily Walker tried to pull the dish away from him, he actually didnt mind the disgusting taste? But she felt so embarrassed!
Baron Stuart looked at her and then just reached out and pulled the Tomato and Scrambled Eggs back, saying, Im hungry!
Seeing him pull the te back, Emily Walker hesitated, then began to speak,
But
Its so disgusting, and its sweet. Not to mention him, even she herself didnt want to eat it.
Ignoring her, Baron Stuart ate everyst bit of the huge te of Tomato and Scrambled Eggs.
As for the Minced Pork with Eggnt
He honestly couldnt swallow it.
Because the thing he hates the most is eating vinegar! (Sour)
Clean up the dishes. After finishing dinner, Baron Stuart got up and went straight to the second floor.
Looking at the figure on the staircase and then at the empty tes, Emily Walker suddenly realized, does this man have a sweet tooth?
Otherwise, how could he eat an entire sweet dish?
With a hesitant nod, Emily Walker seemed to suddenly understand, this man likes sweet!
After cleaning up the dishes, when Emily Walker walked out of the kitchen again, it was already 10 PM..

Trantor: 549690339
Looking in the direction of the second floor, Emily Walker suddenly fell into deep thought.
She was staying here tonight, but which room should she stay in?
With uncertainty in her heart, Emily approached the staircase, heading towards the second floor.
There were many rooms on the second floor, but upon opening the doors, there were only two rooms suitable for sleeping in. Which one should she choose?
She arrived at the third room and gently pushed open the door. From the view outside, it looked like a study.
Pushing the door open, Emily stepped in. Not far from the desk, a man was hard at work, his focused demeanor was staggeringly handsome!
Youll sleep in the first room on the right. As if guessing her current dilemma, the man at the desk suddenly spoke without raising his head, his gaze remaining on the document in his hands, his expression unchanged.
Was this man able to read minds?
She nced at the man not too far away, carefully retreated and shut the door behind her.
The first room
Pushing open the first door, the interior was simple and cozy. Predominantly decked out in ck and white, it had a spacious and bright wooden floor-to-ceiling window. At this moment, the twinkling stars outside were clearly visible.
This room it seemed to clearly belong to a man
Well, it was normal since this was a mans house and the bedroom was just like that!
Just like that, Emily went into the bathroom, had a rxing warm bath, and then went to bed.
After an unknown amount of time, Emily, in a daze, felt something warm beside her and unconsciously embraced it.
She was used to it. Back when she lived at her old home, she would always sleep hugging her huge ck bear.
Baron Stuart had just gotten into bed when a hand suddenly reached out to his waist. He paused and then lowered his head to look at the person already deep in sleep next to him.
Dad
What? Dad? Was she actually calling him dad?
Baron Stuart knitted his brows, looking at the person next to him, his face was full of bewilderment.
At this moment, Emily was dreaming. She dreamed of her childhood self, clinging to her fathers neck, cooing on hisp, which led her to mumble out the word.
A familiar fragrance wafted through her nostrils, veryfortable. In this state offort, Emilys sleep became deeper and deeper.
Looking at her deep in sleep, Baron Stuart alsoid down.
Yet,pared to the woman beside him, he was not asfortable.
How could a normal man feelfortable when tightly hugged by a woman in the same bed?
With the warmth gradually spreading through his body, Baron Stuart reluctantly closed his eyes. It was muchter when he finally fell asleep.
The next morning.
Perhaps she had sleptfortablyst night, at 7:20 AM, Emily woke up.
The summer sun always rose early to greet everyone. It filtered through the floor-to-ceiling window and sprinkled onto the softrge bed.
Seeing the beautiful weather outside the window, Emily gave a satisfied smile. Today would be another lovely day!
Pulling off the bedding and getting out of bed, she looked up, huh??n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Seeing the man in front of the full-length mirror, the smile on Emilys face disappeared instantly, reced by a surprise!
This man, why was he in her room so early in the morning!?
Through the mirror, Baron Stuart saw her stunned expression.
It takes half an hour to get from here to thepany, are you sure you dont want to get up? After getting dressed, Baron Stuart slightly turned around and eyed the woman on the bed..

Perhaps it was due to the early morning air, but at this moment, his voice sounded incredibly pleasing to the ear.
He was wearing a sky-blue shirt paired with ck slim-fit trousers. Two golden diamond buttons at his cor were slightly open, revealing a ck string attached to a mandarin duck stone pendant C an impable and handsome look.
Looking at the man standing next to the floor mirror, Emily Walker was taken aback, for this man was genuinely handsome in terms of appearance, physique, and the innate noble demeanor thatplemented him. Hmm? Snapping out of her stupor, Emily suddenly realized something!
Work! She almost forgot about it!
Jumping out of bed, Emily rushed to the restroom. When she returned after washing up, the man was no longer in the room.
Half an hourter, Emily went downstairs. It was now 7:50, with 40 minutes left until her work started!
As she entered the living room, she saw the man standing there impatiently, asionally ncing at the ck and gold watch on his left hand.
Another addition to the living room was a middle-aged aunt who was cleaning the area, even though it seemed to not be usedst night.
Upon seeing her finallye downstairs, Baron Stuart spared her a nce then quickly turned and walked towards the front door.
Seemingly feeling that the person behind him didnt follow, he turned his head back slightly and said to the still-stunned Emily, Theres no bus here.
After speaking, he turned around again and headed towards the white Maserati parked outside.
Huh? No bus!?
Emily snapped out of it and rushed out.
Get in the car. Baron Stuart had already settled into the drivers seat.
Emily hesitated for a moment. Since there were no buses in the area, she might as well hitch a ride with him!
In the afternoon, the door to the CEOs office was knocked on by a secretary.
Come in.
After receiving permission, Secretary Philine led Emily into the room.
This way, please. After guiding her to her destination, Philine left the room.
Upon Emilys arrival, Baron Stuart raised his head in surprise but didnt speak. Instead, two secondster, he lowered his head again and continued perusing the documents in his hands.
Seeing the thick stack of documents ced before him, Emily couldnt help but be surprised.
She had thought that being a big boss meant rxing in the office while waiting to receive money, not realizing that the CEO was busier than most ordinary people.
Wait for me for ten minutes.
Just as she was lost in thought, a voice came from behind the office desk. Emily looked over, nodded absentmindedly, and said, Oh.
And so, Emily stood still on the spot, not moving or speaking, quietly waiting for ten minutes.
Atter exactly ten minutes, Baron Stuart closed thest document, picked up the fountain pen on his desk, and looked up at the woman standing in the middle of the office.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Rising to his feet, Baron Stuart walked toward the genuine leather sofa on one side.
Whats the matter?
Seeing that he had finally finished his work, Emily handed over a document from her hand, Boss, this is the nning case for the Light View District project. I heard that you want to review it personally.
At thepany, Emily maintained a clear distinction between her work and personal life, making it easier for her to address him as Boss rather than her teacher. As a result, she felt morefortable.
Baron Stuart looked at the nning case in her hand.
His decision to assign the Light View Road project to her was not due to personal bias, but rather her design works
They were perfectly aligned with his taste. On this point, it seemed that he and Emily shared the same perspective..

Of course, its impossible to say that she had no personal motives at all.
Design was her dream, and he decided to help her realize it.
However, whether she could seed or not still depends on her own efforts; he could only pave the way for her.
Taking the proposal, Baron Stuart nced through it.
As he read, his brows furrowed slightly, dissatisfied with the proposal.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Here, and here, the details are tooplicated. Go back, revise, and then show me a new proposal.
Without wasting any more time, Baron Stuart got up and returned to his office desk.
Emily Walker didnt have much confidence in the proposal she created herself since it was her first time.
With the proposal in hand, she turned around to leave, when the office door was knocked on again.
The person outside didnt wait for permission and just barged in!
Brother
As a man and a woman came in, Be Stuarts sweet voice called out, her face full of admiration when she saw Baron Stuart!
Brother, let me tell you, tonight Her voice suddenly stopped as she saw Emily Walker, her excited expression instantly disappearing.
You? Arent you What should her brother call her? A lover or a girlfriend?
If she were a girlfriend, but her brothers fiance was Cam Walker. As for being a lover there was no way her brother would sponsor a lover!
Seeing Emily Walker appearing in the office didnt seem to surprise Leonardo Bryson, who was standing beside her. Instead, he thought things were about to get more interesting.
He had been friends with Baron Stuart for eight years, and he had never heard of him getting close to any woman. Even during their university years, his first love merely held hands with him.
And the woman in front of them easily took his first kiss?
No, that time at the Milk Tea Shop wasnt Baron Stuarts first kiss because it seemed they had already crossed paths before that.
What kind of a girl could this be, capturing the heart of the young lord?
Hello, my name is Leonardo Bryson. Leonardo came to his senses and walked over with a smile. This is our third meeting.
His voice was gentle and soft, making Emily a little confused. She looked at the hand he extended and shook it politely.
Hello, I Im Emily Walker. Remembering her manners, she introduced herself. However, she was puzzled that the man imed this was their third meeting. Wasnt it the second time? When was the other time?
Seeing their sped hands, Be Stuart immediately shrieked, rushing over to separate them!
At the same time, she red at Emily, Hey! You already have my brother, so why are you holding his hand?!
Emily was left speechless and puzzled by Bes inexplicable rage, staring at her nkly, unsure of what was going on.
Seeing Be pouting in dissatisfaction, Leonardo smiled.
What brings you two here together? Baron Stuart got up from his spacious office desk and approached them.
Ah, almost forgot about the important matter!
Turning back, Bes excited expression returned, and she affectionately hooked her arm around her brothers, Brother, tonight is the Bryson Groups Annual Celebration. Youll attend, right?
Baron Stuart frowned, realizing that he had almost forgotten about this event..

However, he has a business meeting with a client tonight.
I will, but I might be a bitte. Baron Stuart stood up and walked to the sofa.
Why? Be Stuart frowned, somewhat dissatisfied.
Theres a big client tonight, and Ive already missed the appointmentst time because of someone. I cant do that again. As he spoke, Baron nced at Emily Walker standing next to Leonardo Bryson.
Feeling his gaze, Emily looked puzzled, frowning.
What did this man mean? What was the missed appointment got to do with her? It seemed as if it was her fault that he had missed the appointment.
Missing an appointment? That doesnt sound like you. Leonardo Bryson couldnt help but tease him, while casting a nce at Emily beside him.
Baron responded to Leonardos teasing with a cold stare.
Lady Carter. Leonardo suddenly turned his head and took out a card from his pocket, handing it to Emily, I hope you can join us tonight too.
At his words, Emily was taken aback. She looked down at the card in his hand and then took it.
What did this mean? Was he inviting her to join?
Understanding the intention, Emily replied with an embarrassed smile, I
You can leave now. Before Emily had a chance to speak, a deep voice interrupted.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Looking at the man on the sofa, Emily hesitated again, but soon thought that maybe he was helping her get out of the situation.
That worked out well since she didnt know how to refuse such an invitation.
Okay. Nodding her head, Emily walked out of the office with the card in hand.
When she returned to herprehensive office, Emily suddenly found that many colleagues were looking at her with strange expressions.
What was going on? Did she have something weird on her body?
Why did she personally deliver her proposal to the top floor? Shouldnt it be given to Director Scott to review?
As Emily passed by a location, she heard two colleagues whispering. Although their voices were very soft, she still heard them clearly.
As for their conversation, Emily suddenly became curious as well.
Who knows? Ive been here for two years, and everything has been handed directly to Director Scott. She can actually go directly to the top floor to find the big BOSS. I really dont know what kind of identity she has! The female colleague then cast a disgruntled nce at Emily who had just passed by before returning to her seat with the document.
Hand it directly to Director Scott? Shouldnt the proposal be given to Director
What was going on?
Forget it, forget it. She didnt have that much time to worry about it now. The most important thing right now was to find a house as soon as possible!
She wondered if she could get leave this afternoon. If she didnt find a ce to stay soon, would she have to sleep at his house again tonight? Or be stranded on the street?
With a try-it-out attitude, Emily went to Megan Scotts office.
Knock, knock, knock!
Come in.
Seeing the response from inside, Emily walked in.
Director Scott, I have something to do this afternoon. Can I ask for a leave? Looking at Megan Scott, who was working with her head down and a stern expression, Emily spoke softly.
Megan Scott looked up at Emilys voice. Her beautiful oval face remained stern and emotionless, Has the CEO looked at your proposal?
Uh, Emily hesitated for a moment before answering, Yes He has.
Did he approve? Megan asked again. No, some details need to be revised.
Then go back and revise it properly.
Dears, Mia Harizon is going to take wedding photos tomorrow. I heard it would be veryte beforeing back, so the update might be a bitte. Please understand..

Does that mean she wont be granted leave and has to go back and revise the proposal? But Director Scott, I have ns tonight
Emily tried to speak, but was interrupted by Megan Scott.
If I were you, I would go back to my desk right now and revise the nning case properly! Megan Scott said with a cold face and righteous words.
Oh. It seemed that her request for leave came at a bad time.
After making a sound of acknowledgement, Emily retreated, but before she left, she seemed to suddenly remember something and turned her head back to look at Megan Scott, who was already working at her desk.
Director Scott, Id like to ask Emily paused for a moment and then continued, I heard that the Design Department usually reports to you, but why do I have to personally submit this project proposal to the CEO?
Upon hearing this, Megan Scotts working hand suddenly paused.
Actually, she was not clear about the reason either. It was just that during the meeting, the President had specifically instructed that he would personally review the nning case for Light View Road.
Regarding this point, she also thought of the previous situation where Emily was mysteriously assigned this project, and everything about it seemed too unusual.
And their President actually provided guidance personally to a girl from the Design Department, which waspletely unlike his cold personality.
Because this project is very important. Megan Scott looked up at Emily, Any more questions?
Emily paused for a moment, No, thats all.
After leaving the office, Emily returned to her desk and began revising the proposal.
Since the errors were pointed out one by one by Baron Stuart, the revisions were rtively easy.
However, it still took her the whole afternoon.
By the time the nning case was finished, it was already 5:20 PM.
Looking around, many employees had already started packing up their things and preparing to leave.
Putting the revised proposal into the file folder, Emily also began to pack up her things and prepare to leave.
Walking out of thepany building, Emily headed towards the bus stop as usual.
She hadnt found a ce to stay, and she couldnt go back to where she wasst night, so now she had no choice but to go to the hospital.
Just as she walked a few steps away from the entrance of thepany building, a ck sedan suddenly appeared in front of her and stopped.
Lady Carter. The co-drivers head popped out and Emily recognized him at a nce C it was yton Howard, the special assistant to the President.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Looking at yton, Emilys face was full of confusion.
Please get in the car. yton looked at her and revealed a smile.
ncing at the luxury car and then at ytons smiling face, Emily instinctively asked, Where to?
Im sorry, Im just following Young Lords instructions. His order was amand, and they were only responsible for doing, not exining.
Young Lord? Its that man again.
Emily had no intention of getting in the car and was about to turn around and leave.
Young Lord said that if you insist on not getting in the car, Im afraid you wont see your little brother in the future.
What!? Hearing this, Emily suddenly turned around, her face full of shock as she looked at yton in the car, What did you just say? What happened to my little brother?
Lady Carter, dont worry. As long as you get in the car now, you can ask Young Lord for rification when you see himter. yton replied with a smile.
What exactly does that damn man want to do!?
Filled with anger, Emily got into the car furiously, ready to confront that mysterious man!

The car slowly drove out of the city district and stopped in front of the luxury mansion where they were yesterday.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Not waiting for the dead machine to get off and open the door, Emily Walker, already fuming, directly opened the car door and headed straight for the living room!
But upon entering the living room, the scene suddenly left her dumbfounded
What was a row of people, both men and women, standing in front of her for? Judging by their outfits, they shouldnt be servants.
Who were they?
Emily Walker stood still, looking at the two rows of people in front of her with some confusion.
Thank you all for your help, yton Howard came in, smiling at the two rows of people.
Before Emily could regain her senses, she was led by the two rows of people to a small room.
What are you trying to do!? Emily, still unclear about her little brothers situation, had no intention of getting her hair and makeup done. She suddenly stood up, her angry eyes ring at the row of people in front of her.
At this moment, yton Howard approached her, his expression unchanged, still smiling gently. Young Lord is waiting for you at the celebration banquet. If you want to know earlier, Lady Carter should get dressed immediately and then enter the conference hall to find the young master.
Upon hearing this, Emily abruptly turned her face. Then take me to him right now!
Damn it, what had he done to her brother!
yton Howard nced at her from head to toe and smiled gently. Lady Carter, Im afraid you wont be able to enter the conference hall dressed like this, let alone meet Young Lord.
At this moment, Emily really wanted to curse!
In order to see that damn man and find out about her brothers situation sooner, she reluctantly sat down and let the stylist do her makeup and hair.
At 7 PM, a ck sedan stopped in front of a grand and luxurious private mansion.
Emily Walker wore a whitece sleeveless dress that entuated her slender legs, and her long, straight hair was neatly styled without much embellishment. A simple strand of hair was pulled up on the right side, giving an overall tall, unique, and serene appearance.
As she slowly got out of the car and looked at the luxurious private mansion, Emilys face was full of amazement.
As expected of rich people, even the conference venue was so grand!
yton Howard came in front of her and smiled, making a gesture of invitation.
Emily then pulled herself together, took a look at the brightly lit banquet hall, and walked in step by step.
As she entered the living room, she focused all her attention on Baron Stuart, not caring about the gazes of others in the conference hall.
Emily Walker? A mans voice came from not far away. She was not very familiar with this voice but had some recollection of it, so she turned to look at Leonardo Bryson, who was slowly approaching her.
As the man in front of her came closer, out of politeness, Emily returned a quiet smile and said, Hello.
Im d you coulde. Leonardo Bryson smiled gently, his handsome face always giving a warm feeling, unlike some people who were always icy!
His words made Emily pause, then chuckled dryly.
She didnte here to attend this so-called celebration banquet C she came here only to find that man and make it clear what he had done to her brother!
On the way here, she had also called the hospital to inquire about the situation, but the hospital told her that her brother, Wace Carter, had been transferred yesterday afternoon. As for where he had been transferred to, even the hospital authorities did not know!
Emilyughed dryly, her gaze darting around, and suddenly caught sight of Be Stuart next to Leonardo Bryson.. At this moment Be was looking at her with a hostile face, pouting her small mouth in displeasure!

Trantor: 549690339
Seeing her hostile gaze, Emily Walker instinctively hesitated, not knowing where she had offended this youngdy.
Staring at Emily in front of her, Be Stuart retracted her gaze and turned to Leonardo Bryson beside her, asking sourly, Why did you call her by her name?
Are you that close to her?
They had only met a few times, and he was already calling her by her name!
Be Stuart still pouted, looking very unhappy!
Leonardo turned his head and pinched her little nose, Because were friends.
When did you be friends with her? Youve only met a few times! Be Stuartined and then looked at Emily. Im asking you, wheres my brother? Why hasnt hee?
Upon hearing this, Emily was slightly stunned. Her brother? Could it be that the President didnte?
Didnt hee? Emily hesitated before asking.
Seeing her question, Bes hostility towards her dissipated, reced by a puzzled look.
You dont know either? She thought that her brother had an extraordinary rtionship with this woman, but it didnt seem that way.
No, thats not right.
If there was nothing unusual, why would her brother kiss her? And even be with her ahem.
Thinking of this, Be Stuart suddenly cut off her own thoughts, not wanting to think further and raised her head to continue looking at Emily.
After examining Emily from head to toe, Be grabbed her hand and whispered, Come with me, I have something to tell you.
As soon as her words fell, Be pulled Emily like a sneaky little cat, passing through the banquet hall towards the back of the private mansion.
With a bewildered expression, Emily was led straight out to the swimming pool behind the mansion.
Whats your rtionship with my brother? Recently, her brothers strange behaviors had baffled her. In her 18 years, she had never seen anything like it.
The way her brother looked at her seemed different from how he looked at others, she really wanted to figure out what was going on between her brother and this girl!
Emily looked at Be Stuart and then lowered her eyelids, unsure how to answer this question.
After pondering for a long time, Emily finally answered naturally, Hes my superior.
Fortunately, she had such a title now; otherwise, she really wouldnt know how to respond.
But Be Stuart didnt think so.
Superior? I heard you just joined Futuren Group a few days ago, and Be looked around, making sure no one was nearby before continuing, Also, you got in because of my brothers connection!
Upon hearing this, Emily widened her eyes in surprise, not expecting Young Miss Foster to know everything.
No wonder, this woman and that man are family, so its not strange that she knows about this.
Emily lowered her eyelids, unsure how to respond.
Forget it, if you dont want to talk about it, I wont force you! Seeing Leonardo Bryson walking towards them, Be hurriedly said a few words before quickly getting past Emily and walking in his direction!N?v(el)B\\jnn
Didnt you say you were going to show me around the mansion? Lets go now! Seemingly sensing Leonardos intention to go to the pool, Be quickly grabbed his arm, ready to pull him back to the banquet hall.
However, just as she turned around, she saw a familiar figure ahead, Brother, youre here!
Dears, Im sorry, Mia Harizon just got home not long ago, too tired, and will update more tomorrow! (There will be updates during the day) Good night..

Hmm. Looking at his sister in front of him, Baron Stuart gave a light hum, his eyes shifted to the direction she hade from, and immediately saw Emily Walker standing by the swimming pool.
Their gazes met in mid-air, Emily unconsciously withdrew and turned to face the pool.
What was she hiding from? Didnt shee here to find him?
With that thought, Emily calmed her emotions and turned back again.
In the banquet hall, Baron Stuart looked through the ss door, as he saw her turning her back to him, wanting to step forward but was stopped by a voice from behind.
Baron Stuart. A middle-aged male voice came from behind, stepping towards him.
Baron Stuart turned his gaze and saw Baxter Walker and his daughter Cam approaching.
From the moment Baron Stuart entered the banquet hall, Cams eyes never left him. They now approached, and when his gaze turned towards the swimming pool outside, she followed his line of sight.
It was just a silhouette, and Cam didnt recognize that it was Emily. She didnt linger too long.
But just as she was about to take her eyes back, the silhouette suddenly turned around, and Cam recognized her at a nce!
What was she doing here?
Today was Bryson Groups annual celebration banquet. Those who came here were mostly business celebrities. Of course, there were also manypany directors who brought their children to have a look at the grand asion and gain some exposure in front of the social elites.
But what did Emily count as? She was just a working girl. Even if Baron Stuart had favored her and let her join the Futuren Group, she was still only one of the tens of thousands of employees of the Futuren Group. What qualifications did she have to attend such an event where only upper-ss people could enter? Thinking about this, Cams resentful gaze locked onto Emily by the pool once again.
Feeling Cams gaze, Emily, who had initially intended to enter the banquet hall, paused at this moment.
When did you arrive? Baxter Walker looked at Baron Stuart, his face showing a gentle smile as a senior towards the younger, neither serious nor constrained.
Baron Stuart looked at Baxter Walker without a nce at Cam, as if she was just a stranger to him, not his fiancee.
Just got here. Although Baxter Walker was his nominally future father-inw, Baron Stuarts attitude remained indifferent. No emotions could be heard in his voice. It was as if Baxter was just a passerby to him.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Due to Baxters approach, many business tycoons saw Baron Stuart arrive and came over one after another, as if wanting to establish a rtionship with Futuren Group.
Mr. Stuart, youre here too
Watching her brother being surrounded by business tycoons, Be Stuart at the side felt dispirited and slumped her shoulders. There were so few opportunities for her to talk to her brother at events like this!
She initially wanted to ask him a question, but it seemed there was no chance for her to speak.
Nevermind, Be Stuart turned her head to look at Leonardo Bryson with a yful expression and a hint of excitement. Leonardo, show me around the house!
ncing at the surrounded Baron Stuart, Leonardo also helplessly smiled and turned to Be Stuart, Sure.
With that, Be Stuart held his hand, and they walked towards the staircase leading to the second floor.
Futuren Group was truly extraordinary. No matter where Baron Stuart went, there was always a dazzling light surrounding him..

Watching Him being surrounded by the crowd, Cam Walker slowly let go of her Fathers arm and exited the crowd. She walked out of the Banquet Hall and made a beeline for the Swimming Pool.
Momentster, Emily Walker noticed Baron Stuart getting engulfed by a group of Business people. She quietly withdrew from the scene and walked slowly along the edge of the Swimming Pool towards a spot not too far from there.
It was a Tranquil night, and a Cool breeze brushed against her face, bringing along a refreshing feeling. Breathing in the Fresh Natural Air from Outside, Emily forgot about her Little Brothers problems for a moment. She closed her eyes and savored the feeling to her hearts content.
She approached the other end of the Swimming Pool, far enough to be unable to hear the noise inside the Grand Hall.
I really cant understand how someone like you can get into a ce like this? a snide voice sounded from Behind,ced with sarcasm. Cam Walker was holding a tall ss and walking towards her.
Emily knew who it was without needing to turn her head. Although she was slightly startled, she wasnt surprised by her arrival.
After all, an annoying youngdy like her who loves to tease people, would never miss any opportunity to cause her trouble.
Now that Emily has joined the Futuren Corporation, she expects Cam will be even more relentless with her taunts.
Listening to the voice, Emily turned her head, not phased by Cam Walkers sarcasm and ridicule.
Lady Walker, feel free to say whatever you want to say. Dont bother asking how I got here. If you really want to know, Im afraid the answer might make you very angry.
Emilys expression remained calm, but her tone was a little sharp and upromising.
Cam scoffed at Emilys defiance, unhappy with her retort.
Hmm, nothing more than an Office Worker at a Company, I really dont understand what you are so proud of? Cams words were constantly stinging, she always looked condescending.
Of course, in front of some powerfulpeers, she wont behave like this, but she will also not be humiliating herself. Even if their family background is better than hers, she has always been disdainful, thinking highly of herself.
Lady Walker, youre overthinking. Rather than assuming that Im being arrogant, why dont you reflect on yourself first? Emily replied.
Maybe, in front of her, her identity and family background cannot match Cams, but that doesnt mean she will bow down to her.
She doesnt feel inferior to anyone else. Maybe on the surface, she is not as beautiful as Cam, but so what, other peoples looks are none of her business.
What do you intend by implying these? An enraged Cam Walker immediately dropped her expression, looking angrily at Emily.
No one ever has had the nerve to talk back or refute her in such a way!
It doesnt have any intention, I just want to kindly suggest Lady Walker to stop picking on others under the false pretense of using them of seducing your Fiance. Each time Cam troubled her, she had only one excuse C that she was seducing her Fiance!
Upon hearing this, a sarcastic smile surfaces on a flustered Cam Walkers face. She smirked, Hmm, if you want me to stop saying these things about you, then you should keep yourself in check. Why did you join the Futuren Group? Is it not to get closer to my Fiance?
Emily Walker was left speechless, she had no idea how to respond to this kind of usation.
Yes, she was able to join the Futuren Group because of That Man, but definitely not for seduction!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
But, she didnt know how to exin this right now.
Emilys silence was considered as her admission by Cam, this just resulted in escting her jealousy!
I had no intention of getting closer to him!

I didnt want to get close to him! Emily Walker spoke up, how could she ever want to be close to that man? All she ever wanted was to get away from him, right?
But it seemed that the more she wanted to get away, the tighter that man clung to her. Now, things had escted even further, with him kidnapping her little brother as a way to threaten her!
Really? Then why did you appear in his room? Why did you join Futuren Group?! Cam Walker couldnt help but yell angrily.
She would never forget that time at Futuren Hotel when this woman appeared in Baron Stuarts room. A room that no women had ever entered, not even Cam Walker herself.
But this woman showed up inside, without any outsiders present.
It was easy to guess what a man and a woman would do together in a room alone. Thinking about this, Cam Walkers jealousy could no longer be suppressed!
I Why did she appear there? Wasnt it all thanks to her aunts meddling? It was because of that incident that her life was ruined!
Thinking about this, shouldnt she be the angriest? She had lost her innocence for no reason and was used of seducing people!
Seeing her speechless, Cam Walker became even angrier. Didnt her silence prove that she had hit the nail on the head?
I warn you: you better leave Futuren Group voluntarily and disappear from E
City, or Ill make you understand what will happen if you try to steal my man! Cam Walker warned her.
Emily Walker didnt take it seriously and found her threat somewhat amusing.
Really? And what will happen? She didnt believe that in such a big E City, Cam Walker could control everything.
Moreover, she hadnt tried to seduce anyone!
If Cam Walker knew that she had stayed at his luxury mansionst night, how furious would she be?
At this time, on the second-floor balcony, Be Stuart and Leonardo Bryson came out to admire the starry sky.
Wow The view is amazing here. Looking at the night sky full of stars, Be Stuart eximed.
As she turned her head, she saw that Leonardo Bryson was intently watching something on the ground below the balcony.
What are you looking at? Be Stuart asked with a puzzled frown, following his line of sight down.
Not far away by the poolside, two slender figures stood facing each other.
Isnt that Be Stuart furrowed her brow, recognizing both Cam Walker and Emily Walkers silhouettes, What is Cam Walker doing there?
By the pool, Emily Walkers counter-question undoubtedly provoked Cam Walkers suppressed anger!
What did she mean by that? Did she want to test how capable Cam Walker was?
Cam Walker snorted coldly and approached Emily Walker, the corners of her mouth curling up in a chilly smile, Want to know what will happen?
Emily Walker didnt speak, just staring straight at her, somewhat cautious about her sudden approach.
Like this, for example While speaking, Cam Walker slowly raised one hand and reached towards Emily Walker.
Feeling her touch, Emily Walker instinctively swung her hand to avoid Cam Walkers grasp.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Her resistance must have ignited Cam Walkers anger once again. With an enraged look on her face, she reached out once more, grabbing Emilys shoulder without her guard up and giving her a forceful push
With a ssh, Emily Walker was pushed into the swimming pool, her tragic fate sealed..

Damn! That Cam Walker is too much! On the second-floor balcony, Be Stuart couldnt help but swear as she saw the scene below.
Leonardo Bryson, who was next to her, was also a bit shocked as he watched the scene downstairs.
Fortunately, it was summer, and the water in the pool was not cold.
Out of concern, Leonardo wanted to go downstairs, but Be grabbed him and said, What are you doing?!
Leonardo frowned in confusion. Wasnt it obvious? Someone had fallen into the water in his private mansion, so he had to go and express his condolences.
Be, this is not the time to be jealous. She is your brothers woman. If anything happens to her, how can I exin it to your brother?
What could happen? Its summer! Is she going to freeze to death? No matter what, she just didnt like Leonardo caring for other women!
Be Stuart pouted unhappily.
Hearing her words, Leonardo still looked worried and nced towards the swimming pool.
Following that, his brow furrowed more and more
Noticing that something was wrong with his expression, Be also turned her gaze to the swimming pool below the balcony.
In the pool, Emily Walker struggled frantically, her body sometimes surfacing and sometimes being submerged in the water, while she made unintelligible noises as if she were shouting something.
Whats going on Cant she swim? Be seemed to have realized something, and her expression began to grow worried as well.
Go save her! Leonardo shouted urgently and pulled Be to rush downstairs!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
At the poolside, Cam Walker watched as Emily Walker struggled in the water, a smirk of triumph tugging at the corners of her mouth.
Help help Inside the water, Emily Walker pounded the water non-stop, gasping for air every time she was submerged, feeling as if she was suffocating!
Help I cant
Although there was no one at the poolside except Cam Walker, Emily continued to cry for help out of instinct, knowing full well that the one who pushed her wouldnt save her.
In the banquet hall, Baron Stuart caught sight of Leonardo and Be rushing downstairs, looking very anxious as if something had happened.
Seeing the two of them worryingly running towards the outside, Baron Stuart also excused himself from a group of business people and walked towards the direction they were heading.
Help Save Help.. Emilys breathing grew more and morebored, and gradually, Emily, who had been struggling, began to sink to the bottom of the pool.
The waters surface began to calm down.
Seeing the person who had suddenly disappeared from the surface, Cam Walker seemed to suddenly realize something.
What was going on? Couldnt she swim?
Just as she was lost in thought, the surface of the water was once again disturbed with a ssh, and the previously calm water was now filled with waves.
Be! Seeing Be, who had jumped into the swimming pool ahead of him, Leonardos heart skipped a beat, but then remembered that she was a strong swimmer, so he didnt need to worry about her.
With the sudden appearance of the two, many people in the banquet hall began to notice themotion, and Baron Stuart also walked over at this time.
Someone fell into the water
Who is it?
I dont know, but it seems the Stuart familys youngdy jumped in to save someone
Everyone was chattering, making the previouslyposed Baron Stuart suddenly be anxious, raising his eyes and searching around the poolside anxiously for something..

The familiar figure that was standing there was nowhere to be seen, and Baron Stuarts brows furrowed tighter and tighter, his obsidian-like eyes bing increasingly cold.
At this time, two figures appeared on the waters surface, and Baron Stuart rushed over quickly!
In the water, Be Stuart was pulling Emily Walker slowly towards the poolside. Seeing this, Leonardo Bryson hurriedly helped the two out of the water. At this point, Emily Walker had lost consciousness.
Seeing the motionless figure lying on the ground, Baron Stuarts heart clenched!
What on earth had happened?
Once they were out of the water, Be Stuart began calling out to the still Emily Walker, her hand reaching to p her cheeks, Hey, are you okay? Wake up!
Hey!
The two of them were dripping wet, looking rather awkward.
Looking at the lifeless figure on the ground, a wave of unchecked fury began to rise in Baron Stuarts heart for some reason!
He wanted to know what had happened here!
A surge of helpless anger gradually spread throughout his body, no matter how much Be Stuart shouted, the figure on the ground remained still.
Be Stuart knelt beside Emily Walker, taking a deep breath and then leaning down, cing her mouth on Emily Walkers for mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
One breath after another, after each breath, she would try to press Emily Walkers chest!
This was an emergency rescue measure for drowning, which they had learned in swimming lessons!
Would you please wake up already
Seeing no movement from the person on the ground, Be Stuart couldnt help but be anxious as well, wondering if she might bear some responsibility if Emily didnt wake up. After all, when Emily was still struggling, Leonardo Bryson had wanted to save her, but was dyed due to her jealousy!n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
What should she do? If her brother found out, he would definitely hate her!
Please, wake up, dont let my brother me me Be Stuart muttered quietly as she continued to press Emily Walkers chest.
This was the first time she had seen her brothers face filled with such worry and anger; she was somewhat afraid.
Finally, after Be Stuarts efforts, the person on the ground stirred, her body convulsing a few times, as she spat out the pool water she had swallowed.
Coughcough Having regained consciousness, Emily Walker coughed violently a few times, finally catching her breath, but her body was still weak, and she was in a dazed state, somewhat delirious.
Thank heavens, youve finally woken up Be Stuart sighed in relief, copsing onto the ground.
Following that, she suddenly stood up and charged towards the crowd, where Cam Walker stood dumbfounded!
Cam Walker! Be Stuart shouted angrily, ring at Cam Walker, You pushed her in! Have you no shame?!
No matter how willful and spoiled she had been, she had never done anything so outrageous.
But this Cam Walker was going too far, wasnt this a tant attempt to kill?
With her shouting, Baron Stuarts gaze followed, looking at the stunned Cam Walker, who was still in shock.
Not only him, but the onlookers also began casting their eyes on Cam Walker.
What was even more surprising were the words that came out of Be Stuarts mouth.
What did she mean by Cam Walker, the youngdy of the Walker family, pushed her? What exactly was going on?
The Walker Family was a prominent family that always paid attention to its external conduct and bearing.
Feeling the cold gaze of Baron Stuart, Cam Walker snapped back to her senses and began to defend herself against Be Stuarts usation, I didnt push her.. She slipped and fell into the water while struggling with me!

Youre still making excuses! I saw everything! My god, how shameless can a person be? She actually had the nerve to make excuses even though she was caught red-handed!
Cam Walker just scoffed coldly, looking at Be Stuart and asking, Lady Stuart, what kind of rtionship does she have with you? Are you using me of lying just to protect her?
Technically, Cam was Bes sister-inw before they were even married, but the two of them had no real emotional connection. On the contrary, Be really hated her.
What?! Shes using her?!
Be was about to go crazy with anger. Where did she ever use her?!
You wretched Cam Walker, dont think you can act all innocent! Be gritted her teeth, her furious eyes fixed on Cam. She had seen shameless people before, but never anyone as shameless as her!
Nevertheless, Cam seemedpletely unconcerned, the corners of her mouth twitching slightly, as if Emily Walkers fall into the water had nothing to do with her at all.
Why would I deny it? After saying that, she turned her gaze to Emily on the ground. At this moment, seeing Baron Stuart holding her, Cam was even more furious. Her grip on the wine ss grew tighter and tighter, showing the whites of her knuckles.
Shes nothing more than a lowly woman who seduces other peoples fiancs! Cam red furiously at Emily lying on the ground, wishing she could tear her out of Baron Stuarts arms!
At these words, everyone present was filled with curiosity.
What did it mean to seduce someone elses fianc? Could it be that the fianc Miss Walker was referring to was Baron Stuart of the Futuren Group?
Looking at Baron Stuart holding another woman, people couldnt help but specte about the nature of the rtionship between the three.
One of them was a world-famous man, Baron Stuart; another was Cam Walker, the well-known heiress of the Walker Consortium; and the other was an unfamiliar woman. Who exactly was she?
Ignoring the spection of others, Baron Stuart slowly picked Emily up from the ground.
Standing up, he shot a cold and stern look at Cam. His fierce gaze made her tremble, and she hesitated for a moment.
She had never encountered such a look from Baron Stuart before, and now he was giving her such a look for the sake of another woman.
Baron Stuart, holding Emily in his arms, slowly strode past Cam. In a chilly voice, he warned, Dont push me, or the consequences will be more than you can bear.
Leaving behind a cold statement, Baron Stuart carried Emily away from the banquet hall.
With a light but heavy touch, Cam felt an oppressive force she had never experienced before. She slowly turned her head and watched the retreating back of the man meant to be her fianc, as he warned her for the sake of another woman.
Her hand tightened ever so slightly, swearing that what she, Cam Walker, couldnt have, nobody else would be able to have either!
After putting Emily into the car, Baron Stuart got into the back seat himself. Seeing her soaked to the skin, he took off his coat and gently covered her with it.
The car gradually drove away from the Rowan Family Mansion, and half an hourter, it stopped in front of Baron Stuarts private residence.
Carrying Emily, Baron Stuart got out of the car and said to yton Howard behind him, Go find Doctor Gavin.
Doctor Gavin was the family doctor for the Stuart Family and rarely visited Baron Stuarts private residence. If he was invited now, it would most likely take him another half an hour or so to arrive.
Carrying Emily, Baron Stuart went straight to the second floor..

Fortunately, her luggage box was brought here yesterday. As soon as they entered the room, Baron Stuart first changed herpletely soaked clothes and then ced her on the softrge bed.
Maybe her body was slowly getting warmer, and 20 minutester, Emily Walker gradually regained consciousness, her eyes slightly opened.
Achoo! As soon as she woke up, Emily couldnt help but sneeze!
Seeing her awake, the inexplicable constriction in Baron Stuarts heart began to ease.
Can you not swim? He asked softly, looking at her.
In this society, very few people cant swim.
If it werent for Be Stuart jumping in on time, he couldnt imagine whether this woman in front of him would leave this world, disappearing from his world.
Emily had just woken up and hadnt figured out where she was for a moment.
Not until hearing the familiar voice, she slowly lifted her head and looked at the man sitting on the single sofa beside the bed.
After a pause, she realized his question and hesitated to nod, Yes.
Did she push you in?
Emily raised her eyes. She was slightly stunned because of his sudden question and then hesitated to nod, Yes.
It was indeed Cam Walker who pushed her in. She didnt want to be a good person and protect someone who pushed her into the swimming pool. Previously inside the water, she thought she was going to die during that suffocating moment.
Hearing this, Baron Stuart did not speak further; instead, he looked her up and down and then got up to walk outside the door.
A few minutester, the man came upstairs again, this time followed by two other men, one was yton Howard, and the other was someone Emily didnt know.
The middle-aged man entered the room, looked at Emily on the bed, and came over.
It wasnt until the man approached her and took out medical equipment to check on her that Emily realized this middle-aged man was a doctor. Theres no big problem, just a slight cold. Ill prescribe some medicine, and it should be fine. After the check-up, Doctor Gavin respectfully said to Baron Stuart.
Baron Stuart nced at yton Howard, Send Doctor Gavin off.
yton obeyed and left the room with Doctor Gavin.
As Baron Stuarts close servant, yton was of course aware of why his young master had sent Doctor Gavin off.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Doctor Gavin, I hope you wont let Madam know about everything youve seen today. This is the young masters order, yton said.
Doctor Gavin naturally understood his meaning and nodded slightly, I understand. After that, he handed the medicine to yton, This is for thedy, once in the morning and once in the evening. Taking the medicine, yton watched Doctor Gavin leave.
Eat all of these.
In the room, the mans deep and sexy voice rang out, and looking at the woman on the bed, he pointed to the food in front of her.
Emily looked at the food in front of her. So much? She couldnt possibly finish it all by herself!
I cant eat this much on my own. Emily told the truth; her appetite wasnt very big, she couldnt eat this much. Wasnt this enough for two people?
Just eat what I tell you! You have no meat on your body, and you dare to talk so much! The man looked at her, his handsome face like an exquisite jade sculpture, deep enough to trap anyone unintentionally.
His words made Emily somewhat baffled.. What did he mean she had no meat sensation on her body?

What does it have to do with you if Im fleshier or not? Its not like I let you touch! Emily Walker murmured angrily in her heart!
Where did you take my little brother? She was more curious about Wace
Carters whereabouts than dinner!
But then again, whats this man up to?
Eat this, and Ill tell you. Baron Stuart pointed to the dishes in front of him,
ms expression as calm as ever.
Emily looked at him and found this man really confusing!
I cant eat so much! She growled in protest.
Then take good care of yourself! Baron Stuarts tone suddenly became a little unhappy!
He wanted to protect this woman with his own influence, but unfortunately, things were beyond his control, and too much happened unexpectedly.
But in the end, why was this woman so foolish? Being bullied again and again without even a little resistance?
In his impression, she shouldnt be a littlemb that can be bullied.
What? She looked at him nkly, not understanding what he said.
Baron Stuart didnt speak but simply picked up a bowl of food and then took a spoon from beside it, Open your mouth.
Emilys eyes widened at his sudden move!
What did he mean? Was he going to feed her?
You
Open your mouth! Ignoring her confusion, Baron Stuart impatiently spoke again.
Feeling his inexplicable impatience, for a moment, Emily obediently opened her mouth like being possessed by a ghost.
Seeing her well-behaved obedience, the frustration in Baron Stuarts heart suddenly disappeared, and the corners of his mouth curled up with an imperceptible shallow smile.
After finishing the two bowls of white rice and the three dishes and one soup, Emily was so full that shey on the bed and didnt want to move at all.
She nced at the man who was about to leave the room, then looked at his back and spoke again, Um my little brotherp>
Hes fine. Before Emily could finish her question, Baron Stuart had already spoken, then left the room without looking back.
Somehow, although she didnt see her little brother with her own eyes, his answer made her feel at ease.
With that reassurance, Emily gradually closed her eyes and soon fell into a deep sleep
Lost track of time, she woke up in her sleep feeling thirsty and wanted to drink a cup of cold water.
She got up, looked around the minimalist luxurious bedroom, and found no water or water sses in the room, so she had no choice but to go downstairs.
The living room was pitch ck, and Emily didnt know what time it was, but guessed it should be deep into the night or early morning.
To get to the kitchen, she could only rely on the bright moonlighting through the windows.
As she approached the kitchen door, she noticed the light was on inside.
She frowned in confusion, but didnt think too much, assuming that the aunt from earlier had forgotten to turn off the light.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
As she was about to push the door and enter, she suddenly saw a tall figure. In an instant, she lost two and a half of her spirits, trembling from head to toe, her heart pounding wildly, her nerves tensing up, and staring at the figure in front of her with wide eyes.
Baron Stuart also seemed surprised to see her suddenly appear outside the door. Then, seeing her terrified expression, he finally spoke softly, What are you doing?
She looked at the man in front of her, calmed her frightened emotions, and pointed to the kitchen behind him, I, I want to get a ss of water to drink..

Hearing this, Baron Stuart slightly pursed his thin lips and immediately handed her the warm water in his hand.
Looking at the water ss stuffed into her hand, Emily Walker hesitated for a moment.
This must be what he drank, right?
This, this is She looked up at the man in front of her.
Half a ss of water, she didnt need to think to know it was the leftover from his drink!
Baron Stuart squinted slightly, was this woman despising him?
Theres only this one cup, do you want to drink it or not? He looked at her, his tone filled with an indisputable and overbearing promation.
At his words, Emily couldnt help but raise her gaze, sneaking a nce at the table in the kitchen. Wasnt there arge ss of water clearly ced there? Howe theres only this one cup now?
Seeing her sneak a nce at the kitchen behind him, the young Lords moodpletely soured!
He didnt mind her indirect kiss, but she despised his saliva instead?
Theres also a big one Emily intended to say there was another big ss of water, but before she could finish her sentence, she felt a soft warmth on her parched lips. When she reacted, before her eyes was a stunningly handsome face!
She widened her eyes, this man actually forcefully kissed her!?
Youve already got my saliva on you.
Releasing her, Baron Stuart casually dropped a sentence before walking straight past her to the living room.
Emily, who was still standing there dumbstruck, hadnt recovered yet and roboticly turned her head to watch the mans chic departing figure.
She pursed her lips, which now retained his unique scent, and they seemed to be less dry after he kissed her.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Looking down at the water ss in her hand, perhaps she was really too thirsty, so she woodenly raised the ss and drank the water in one gulp. It still didnt seem enough, so she walked into the kitchen and poured another cup.
Baron Stuart, who originally nned to go upstairs, was now standing at the entrance of the staircase. When he saw her drink that ss of water, his mood inexplicably improved.
After drinking three sses of water, Emily finally felt quenched and left the kitchen, not forgetting to turn off the light before she left.
After returning to the room, she wanted to go to bed. However, when she approached, the scene before her once again made her dumbfounded!
She looked at the man on the bed with some surprise, who was now half-naked, revealing his muscr arms. It had to be said that this mans appearance was truly perfect, both his looks and his figure were mesmerizing.
Looking at the man in bed, Emily blinked her eyes, and after ncing back at the entrance, she cautiously asked, Um this room
Who will sleep here, him or her?
At the sound, Baron Stuart put down the financial magazine in his hand and looked at her with a perplexed frown.
How bad was this womans memory? Was it strange for him to be here? Didnt he sleep herest night?
This is the master room. Is it strange for me to be here?
Huh? The master room?
Hearing this, Emily looked back at the entrance again. Did she really go into the wrong room? She didnt remember the two rooms having the same decoration.
Oh, I I entered the wrong room. After saying that, Emily wanted to turn around and leave.
But just as she was turning around, the man on the bed had already stepped down and pulled her back. With his forceful pull, Emily lost her bnce, stumbled a few steps, and identally fell into his sturdy arms!
She was shocked, thinking she was about to fall!
With one hand holding her waist, the mans even breath brushed across her fair cheeks, the corners of his mouth lifting with a faint arc, Want to leave?

What what do you mean? Is she not leaving and actually going to sleep here?
Ah The next second, Emily Walker felt her body being lifted into the air, and by the time she came to her senses, she had alreadynded on the soft,fortablerge bed!
She instinctively tried to get up, but was restrained by a strong, towering body.
Baron Stuart leaned down, imprisoning the woman beneath himpletely within his double arms, his enchanting eyes even more alluring and wicked at this moment.
The magical curve of his mouth made Emily feel a little timid and anxious, and her heart raced, unsure of what the man before her intended to do.
Looking at him cautiously, she ced both hands on his solid chest, and following her line of sight, his perfectly sexy pectoral muscles were on full disy.
Emilys cheeks flushed subconsciously, and her gaze flickered upward, looking directly into the mans eyes, her voice trembling, What what are you doing?
Originally, he just wanted to tease the woman beneath him, but as he felt her heartbeat quicken and saw her cheeks turn red, he didnt know why, but a surge of heat leapt within Baron Stuarts body.
Instinctively, he hesitated, knowing well the nature of this current heat.
Why could this woman always so easily arouse his lust?
His deep eyes gazed fixedly at the woman beneath him, and as the warmth within him surged, coupled with the beautiful woman in his arms, Baron Stuart couldnt help but slowly bring his face down.
All along, he had been able to easily restrain his lust, no matter how long, no other woman could arouse this mans instincts; but this woman before him could effortlessly pique his interest.
Her lips were covered once again, and Emily stared wide-eyed, allowing the soft, sensual thin lips to engulf her small mouth. For a moment, her thoughts seemed to have been drained, not knowing how to struggle or breathe. She held her breath stupidly, her mind going nk.
Seemingly aware that the woman beneath him had forgotten to breathe, Baron Stuarts thin lips parted slightly, his tongue gently prying open her shell teeth, and pouring oxygen from his mouth into hers.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
It wasnt until his warm tongue prated her mouth that Emily regained consciousness and unconsciously let out a muffled sound.
She then began to struggle, Mmm
She wanted to say something, but at this time, her lips were not her own, and she simply couldnt speak.
Did this damn man intend to force himself on her? She didnt want that!
Unable to move her mouth, Emily started to use her hands.
Her small hands pounded his chest frantically, trying to push him away.
But for some reason, gradually, Emily felt the mans kisses had an addictive magic, and before long, she lost her innate resistance and became well-behaved, ceasing her struggle.
Feeling the woman beneath him yield, Baron Stuart slightly released her lips, and when he saw her disoriented and infatuated expression, the corners of his mouth turned up in satisfaction.
Then he went on again.
Instead of her lips, this time, it was her smooth, tight skin.
He would leave his personal mark on her body.
Emily squirmed ufortably under his touch, but didnt know how to quell the ufortable feeling inside.
However, Baron Stuart didnt let her wait for too long, soon getting to the point
The night deepened, and the satisfied Emily had already bepletely drained and exhausted. After finding afortable position, she gradually fell deep asleep.
The next day
In the morning, the two people in bed were currently immersed in deep sleep, their brows furrowed, seemingly ufortable..

In a daze, Emily Walkers tightly closed eyshes twitched slightly, and a sharp voice seemed to be yelling at her in her head.
You scoundrel! Didnt you say you werent seducing my fianc!? Look at what youve be!
In her dream, Cam Walkers angry eyes look like they want to devour Emily alive. In the darkness, she couldnt see anything, only Cams furious, bloodshot eyes.
And at this time, she was on a softrge bed, her clothes disheveled.
She looked terrified at Cam approaching her from the darkness, at this time, she was holding her ws and teeth, ready to strangle Emilys neck!
You disgust me, I will strangle you!
Emily suddenly awakened from her fear, her body soaking in cold sweat. It was only after she clearly saw everything around her that she realized that she had just had a nightmare.
Her gaze shifted inadvertently andnded on the man beside her.
Recallingst nights tumult, Emily was suddenly filled with mixed emotions. What was she really doing?
The man beside her didnt belong to her at all, but she found she seemed to have fallen into it unknowingly.
The nearby man continued to keep his eyes closed, Emily gathered her thoughts, turned her eyes and looked at the exquisite clock on the wall.
What!? Its already 8:30!?
Oh no, sheste for work!
In a rush, Emily tried to get up, but found the man beside her hasnt moved an inch.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Strange, didnt this man have a regr wake-up time? Why is he still not up sote today?
She took a closer look at the handsome mans face and noticed a frown between his brows, as if he were ufortable.
Was he awake or not?
Subconsciously, Emily slowly raised her hand and reached towards the frown between his brows.
As soon as her hand touched him, Baron Stuarts lush eyshes twitched slightly and then he opened his eyes.
Seeing him suddenly open his eyes, Emily quickly retracted her hand, looking somewhat stiff.
Baron Stuart opened his deep eyes, took a look at the woman beside him, and then closed them again. From his expression, he seemed very ufortable and annoyed.
Seeing him close his eyes again, Emily couldnt help but remind him,
Ummyoure about to bete for work.
After saying that, she suddenly realized that her words were somewhat redundant. He was the big boss of the corporation, surely being a littlete to thepany shouldnt be a big issue?
As for her, if she doesnt get up now, shes really going to be scolded by Director Scott!
Thinking about this, Emily couldnt care less about the man on the bed anymore, abruptly rose to get ready to get out of bed.
But as soon as she lifted the bedding, she noticed her half-naked body and her cheeks instantly turned red.
Should she try to forget aboutst night as soon as possible?
She got out of bed and changed into a simple outfit. After freshening up, Emily finally left the room and went downstairs.
She had been in such a rush just now that it wasnt until she was about to leave that she realized her head was heavy and she felt very unwell.
Miss.
Just as she was about to step out of the living room, a middle-aged womans voice sounded from behind her.
Emily turned her head at the sound of her voice, and immediately saw the same aunt she had seen before.
Here is your cold medicine, the doctor ordered it to be taken once in the morning and once in the evening. Mrs. Noelle brought a cup of water and cold medicine, indicating Emily take them.
Emily looked at the cup and medicine in her hand, then at the gentle-looking middle-aged aunt, and asked incredulously, Is this mine?

Mhm. Mrs. Noelle nodded.
Emily hesitated before taking the cold medicine and water, quickly swallowing it down, then returned the water ss to Mrs. Noelle, Thank you, Auntie. Just call me Mrs. Noelle, Mrs. Noelle said with a smile.
She has been the nanny to Baron Stuart since he was young, having served the Stuart Family for over twenty years. She had always stayed in Stuart Manor until two days ago when the Young Master suddenly decided to move out, also asking her toe along.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Before this, the Young Master might have asionally lived outside for a few nights, but he never asked her toe with him. This time, when he suddenly asked her toe to his private residence, Mrs. Noelle was very confused.
It wasnt until she saw the girl in front of her that Mrs. Noelle seemed to suddenly understand something.
However, the Young Master was already engaged. If the old master and madam find out about this, Mrs. Noelle wondered what the oue would be.
Okay. Emily said, smiling slightly, then turned and left.
After a few steps, she halted, turned back, and looked at Mrs. Noelle, Mrs. Noelle, her gaze drifted towards the second floor, he seems to be a bit ufortable.
Having said that, Emily left without looking back.
Watching her receding figure, Mrs. Noelle offered a gentle smile.
Here was quite far from the city centre. Emily nned to walk to the bus stop by the roadway when she left, but as soon as she stepped out of the courtyard, a ck sedan stopped in front of her.
The car door opened, and yton Howard got out, immediately turning to open the back seat door for her. He then turned to Emily, Lady Carter.
Seeing yton Howard opening the door for her, Emily stood still for a moment, bewildered and unmoving.
Seeing that she did not move, yton Howard gently smiled, Its Young Lords order.
Just half an hour ago, he received a call from the Young Master, which prompted him to hurriedlye here.
And that happened to be the moment when the Baron watched Emily enter thevatory to freshen up.
After a minute of silence, Emily hesitated before she walked over and got into the luxury sedan.
Today was Friday, and the whole office was filled with energy because tomorrow would he the weekend!
However, Emily, who was sitting at her office desk, couldnt seem to muster any enthusiasm. She was always dozing off, head pounding like it was splitting in two.
She felt quite ufortable and rested her head on the office desk until lunchtime, appearing very weak.
Noticing everyone in the office heading to the staff canteen for lunch and Emily still lying on the table, a female colleague walked over in confusion.
She called out tentatively, Emily?
At the sound of her voice, Emily weakly raised her head, Hmm?
Its lunchtime now. Arent you going to eat? The female colleague looked at her, seemingly realizing that she had been listless all morning. Im not eating. You go ahead. Emily responded weakly.
Are you not feeling well?
Im okay, just a small cold. Ive taken medicine. Probably because of the medicine she had taken in the morning, she felt drowsy now and felt like her head was about to explode.
Okay then. You can rest during lunchtime. Im going to eat now. The female colleague left the office after speaking, heading towards the staff canteen.
Why, isnt Emilying to lunch? Colleague B, who had been waiting at the office door, asked the female colleague who had just spoken with Emily when she didnt appear.
No, she said she has a cold and isnt feeling well. Come on, lets go eat! The two female employees conversed whilst heading towards the dining hall along the staff corridor..

At this moment, yton Howard happened to pass by.
Upon hearing the conversation between the two female employees, yton couldnt help but stop and look back at the two passing women.
Just as he was lost in thought, his cell phone suddenly rang in his shirt pocket.
Where are you? Baron Stuarts deep voice came through the phone.
I am headed to the restaurant for a meal. yton replied, as respectfully as ever.
Come to my officeter. Hanging up, Baron Stuart entered the designated elevator that led straight to the top-floor office.
Looking at the hung-up phone, yton realized that the young master had just arrived at thepany.
At this time, it was noon, and Baron Stuart hade to thepany after resting for the morning.
Upon entering the office, Baron Stuart walked directly to his office desk, sat down in the genuine leather chair, still feeling somewhat of a headache.
Recallingst night, he must have caught a cold when he kissed that woman.
With heavy eyelids, Baron Stuart began to read through the basic files and contracts on the office desk.
About half an hourter, yton knocked and entered.
Young Lord, you wanted to see me.
Baron Stuart kept his head down, his sharp gaze scanning the words in the file.
Without lifting his head, he asked, What did Chairman Masthon of Masthon Financial Group say?
Upon hearing this, yton replied respectfully, He is avable tonight and would like to meet you, Young Lord.
Hmm. Go arrange the time, and also, Baron Stuart raised his head and tossed a file folder on the table, I need you to help me look into something. Here is the information.
ncing at the file folder on the office desk, yton walked over and replied, Yes, sir.
Thats all, you can go. With that, Baron Stuart lowered his head once again and focused on his work.
yton was about to turn to leave, but seemed to suddenly remember something. He paused, hesitating to leave.
Noticing his abnormal behavior, Baron Stuart, who had been keeping his head down, furrowed his brows and looked up at yton, Is there anything else? yton hesitated for a moment, unsure whether or not to mention it.
However, he eventually said, Lady Carter seems to be feeling very unwell, she even skipped lunch.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Hearing this, Baron Stuart raised his eyes, stopped his work, and sat straight up, watching yton with a slightly furrowed brow, Whats wrong with her? yton lowered his gaze, It seems to be because of a cold.
After pondering for a moment, Baron Stuart pressed the inte, Ask Emily
Walker from the Design Department to bring up the nning case. Afterwards, he looked up at yton again, Prepare two lunches and bring them up.
Yes. yton bowed his head slightly, then left the office.
About ten minutester, Emily Carter, dragging her weary body, arrived at the top floor, and knocked on the CEOs office door.
She entered after hearing a response from inside.
At this moment, herplexion was not very good, looking quite under the weather.
As she pushed open the door and saw the man at the office desk, she temporarily put aside her difort, taking the nning case to his desk.
She then handed over the revised nning case, Boss, heres the nning case you asked for.
Although she tried to appear calm on the surface, her tone of voice was somewhat weak.
Why arent you eating? Baron Stuart leaned back in his genuine leather swivel chair, his crystal-clear eyes staring directly at her.
Huh?
Emily Carter looked up in surprise, her mindpletely focused on the recently revised nning case, not expecting him to suddenly ask such a question..

More importantly, how did he know she hadnt eaten?
Baron Stuart left his office desk, walked over to the nearby sofa, and looked up at Emily Walker, Come over here.
He gestured to the spot beside him, his tone not allowing refusal.
His sudden move puzzled Emily, and she stared at him, not moving or speaking.
What is this man up to?
Since they were in thepany, Emily didnt want to cause a scene. She said, If theres nothing else, Ill leave first.
With that, she turned to go.
This damned woman, couldnt she understand what he was saying?!
He was so pissed off!
Just as Emily had taken two steps, the man in the sofa quickly stood up with displeasure, took a stride towards her, and quickly pulled her back, leading her straight to the sofa!
You woman, cant you hear me talking?! He yelled at her after pulling her back.
Seeing his anger, Emily looked perplexed, What exactly do you want to do?
Baron Stuart looked at her for a few seconds, then his face softened a little, and he nced at the food on the tea table, Eat your meal.
Looking at the box meal on the tea table, Emily was confused for a moment.
She turned to the man beside her, You
Can you not talk so much every time? If I tell you to eat, just eat! Baron Stuart was getting impatient. Why did she always have so much to say whenever he asked her to do something?
His sudden harsh tone irritated Emily, who was not his pet. What did he mean bymanding her to eat?
You want me to eat just because you said so? What if theres poison in it!? She red at him and retorted angrily.
What? Poison?
Baron Stuart widened his eyes. Only she could think of something like that.
You woman really are Hed have to be crazy to care about her life!
Suppressing his anger for the moment, Baron Stuart opened the box meal on the tea table, picked up some food, and chewed on a mouthful, staring angrily at the woman in front of him!
Watching the man in front of her, Emily couldnt help but wonder: was he trying to prove to her that there was no poison?
Maybe the one you ate wasnt poisonous, but mine could be. She couldnt help but smile a little at the thought of his childish behavior.
Her words almost made Baron Stuart choke on his food. Was the food really poisoned?
The next second, Baron Stuart put down the box meal in his hand, opened another box, and continued to eat in front of her!
Seeing his action, Emily smiled secretly, her mood inexplicably good, even the previous difort was gone.
She forced herself not tough, Maybe you took an antidote first.
Baron Stuart stopped suddenly.
This woman kept challenging him
Fine, very well.
She didnt want to eat, right?
Just when Emily was trying to hide herughter, Baron Stuart abruptly pinned her to the sofa with lightning speed. Before she could react, her lips were forcibly sealed by him!
Emily instinctively opened her mouth, trying to say something, but Baron Stuart took the opportunity to probe into her mouth and put a piece of chicken chop he had just chewed on in her mouth.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Having achieved his goal, he released her mouth, his lips upturned in satisfaction.
Emily was dumbfounded!
Dears, I rmend my friends novel The Secret Love of the Entertainment Tycoon: Sweet Little Silly Wife. Its a hrious and passionate book!

As she prepared to spit it out, the unknown man spoke.
Dont you want to know where your little brother is?
Upon hearing this, Emily Walker, who intended to spit out the chicken chop, suddenly paused.
This damned man, using her brother to threaten her again!
Although the chicken chop had been in his mouth, fortunately, Emily didnt hate it too much and just endured it as she chewed it down.
Swallowing the chicken chop, Emily red at him in annoyance, So tell me now, where is my brother!?
Eat your meal, and Ill tell you. Baron Stuart nced at the food on the tea table.
Looking at the food on the table and thinking about how long it had been since she had seen Wace Carter, Emily reluctantly picked up the dishes and began eating.
Was it her imagination? Why did she feel that this mans actions just now were only to make her eat?
She looked up, eyeing the man beside her while eating, and at this moment, he also looked up at her. As their eyes met, Emily quickly lowered her head and withdrew her gaze.
The next day, Emily had a rare weekend off.
Before joining the Futuren Group, she mostly worked temporary jobs when she had time off. Today, she could take advantage of the free weekend to find a house as soon as possible.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
When she woke up, the man beside her was already gone, and Emily quickly put the thought out of her mind and got up to look for a house.
When she went downstairs after freshening up, the living room was empty.
Today was a weekend, was he not at home? At this moment, Mrs. Noelle came out.
Lady, youre up.
Emily nodded with a smile and then looked around. Um, Mrs. Noelle, did he go No, the young master is at the swimming pool in the backyard. He loves morning swims on weekends. Mrs. Noelle continued with a smile, Oh, and the young master said to join him when youre awake.
After saying that, Mrs. Noelle went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
Emily was puzzled and looked in the direction of the backyard.
She remembered that there was indeed a beautiful swimming pool in the backyard.
But she didnt n to go there. Instead, she decided to take advantage of this mans ignorance and quickly find a house!
So that he wouldnt forcibly tie her up again likest night!
Just as Emily, carrying a small backpack, was about to sneak out of the door, a deep, intimidating voice came from behind her, Where are you going?
Upon hearing the voice, Emily stopped abruptly, pursed her lips, and turned to look at the half-naked man who was currently wiping his wet hair with a towel.
Giving her a once-over, it was obvious that she was nning to go out.
What? Was she trying to sneak away?
I-Im going to look for a house! Emily fearlessly stared back at the man in front of her and said boldly.
However, upon her gazending on his well-built, caramel chest, she couldnt help but look away, her expression slightly unnatural.
Looking for a house again!
Throwing the towel aside, Baron Stuart sat down on the sofa, Dont you want to see your brother?
Hearing this, Emily clenched her fists in anger. He was using her brother to threaten her again!
I dont understand why you always want me to stay here? Even though you already Emily couldnt finish speaking, feeling a bit heartbroken. She wasnt sure why.
After all, wasnt he a man with a fiance?

What was her identity in this ce? A mistress? A lover?
What do you mean? A hint of pain shed across her face, which waspletely captured by Baron Stuart. He watched her calmly and asked.
Emily paused for a moment, then lowered her eyelids sadly and whispered, Its nothing.
In the end, she chose not to say anything.
She was afraid that once she spoke, it would mean something did she care about him? Or did she care about his fiance?
But why should she care, and what right did she have to care about these things
She knew that some things were better hidden than spoken
She hesitated to speak, and her sad expression left Baron Stuart unable to guess what was suddenly wrong with her.
Staring at her for a long time, Baron Stuart suddenly stood up and walked towards her.
Tell me, whats wrong with you? He reached out to lift her chin, forcing her to look at him. His in tone was filled with an irresistible assertiveness.
At his interrogation, Emily hesitated for a moment, then said, I just want to move out and live my own life.
Hearing this, Baron Stuarts originally deep corners of his mouth suddenly lifted into a smile, Lets make a bet. If you lose, youre not allowed to mention moving out again.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
What Emily was stunned.
As long as you can refuse me, Ill let you go. Baron Stuart spoke again, his sexy thin lips curled up slightly.
Looking at the confidence in his eyes, Emilys face was full of confusion, frowning, What kind of bet?
Baron Stuart just smiled, and in the next second, his sexy thin lips touched down gently, sealing a kiss on Emilys lips.
Whenever he kissed her, Emily would fall deeply into it, unable to break free.
After their passionate kiss, she gasped for air, not daring to imagine if he hadnt let her go, would she have suffocated.
You agreed to the bet, so be good and live here from now on. Having said that, Baron Stuart smirked charmingly and headed towards the second floor.
Emily, still dumbfounded in ce, hadnt realized what had just happened for a moment. What was that about a bet and losing? What had she betted on?
A momentter, she suddenly opened her eyes wide, looking at the figure on the staircase to the second floor. This man actually used this trick!
Despicable, despicable!
Just like that, Emily was inexplicably imprisoned by his side
Another weekend, a bored Emily sat by the swimming pool, enjoying the summer afternoon with a romance novel in hand, to pass the time on this weekend without work.
Lifting her gaze from the book, she stared nkly ahead. It seemed like it had been a long time since she had seen her little brother
No, she had to find out her little brothers whereabouts today!
Closing the book in her hand, Emily suddenly stood up, quickly walked to the living room in her slippers, and headed for the staircase.
As she reached the living room and was about to go upstairs, the doorbell rang at this time.
Hearing the sound, she stopped in her tracks and looked puzzledly at the grand entrance. At this time, Mrs. Noelle had already gone to open the door. As the door opened, a middle-aged woman and a young girl were standing there.
The middle-aged woman was dressed in noble luxury, and with her appearance and figure, she looked no older than her thirties or forties. She was Baron Stuarts mother, Vivian Ferguson.
Standing next to her was Cam Walker.
Madam? Mrs. Noelle was clearly surprised by her presence.
Usually, the madam rarely came to the young masters private residence. Seeing Mrs.. Noelle, Vivian Ferguson smiled politely, Where is Baron Stuart?

Trantor: 549690339
Mrs. Noelle hesitated for a moment, worried about Lady Carter, who was standing at the staircase entrance at this moment.
Young Master had already gotten engaged to the Walker familys daughter. If the rumor of a privately kept lover got out, the madam would be furious.
Young Master Young Master is on the second floor. Mrs. Noelle looked a little unnatural and nced back at Emily Walker by the staircase entrance.
Vivian Ferguson noticed the unusual expression on her face and frowned, not understanding what she was nervous about.
Mrs. Noelle, are you not nning on letting me in? Vivian Ferguson may seem gentle, but when she is serious, she is frightening to everyone.
Mrs. Noelle hurriedly turned around, saying anxiously, Of course not, madam, please go in.
After saying this, Mrs. Noelle quickly stepped back, making way for Vivian Ferguson and Cam Walker.
Before lunch, Baxter Walker took his daughter to Baron Stuarts ce. Since it was the weekend, he assumed the baron would be home but learned that he had moved out a few days ago.
Cam Walker, who had always been sensitive, felt that this must have something to do with Emily Walker. So she made an excuse for Vivian Ferguson to take her to Baron Stuarts private residence, the goal was to see if the reason he moved out was really rted to that woman!
Seeing Mrs. Noelles unusual expression, she became even more convinced of this answer!
Vivian Ferguson stepped lightly in her high heels, and the crisp sound of footsteps echoed in the living room. Knowing that Baron Stuart was on the second floor, she didnt bother looking around when she entered the living room but headed straight for the staircase.
However, upon looking up, she was stunned by the figure that appeared.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
She suddenly stopped and looked at the girl by the staircase entrance with a surprised expression.
Who is this girl? Why is she in her sons house?
Vivian Ferguson looked Emily Walker up and down, noticing her in clothes, in appearance C how did Baron Stuart meet such a girl?
Upon closer examination, she seemed to have seen her somewhere before.
Cam Walker, who was next to her, clenched her teeth even more when she saw Emily Walker. She knew that Baron Stuarts sudden move must have something to do with this woman!
Who are you? Vivian Ferguson frowned, her gentle face reced with a deep and puzzled expression.
Emily Walker wasnt sure who the middle-aged woman in front of her was, but she was very familiar with Cam Walker standing beside her.
Could it be that this middle-aged woman is Cams mother?
No, she remembered that Cams mother was a gentle woman thest time they met at Sea Sky Hotel. The woman in front of her seemed elegant and graceful, but Emily Walker noticed a hint of disdain in the way she looked at her.
Upon closer inspection, the womans features seemed somewhat simr to Baron Stuarts
Could it be Baron Stuarts mother?
I Emily didnt know what to say for a moment.
How should she introduce herself? As Baron Stuarts friend? Or his privately kept lover?
Between the two, thetter seemed more fitting.
Madam, she is Young Masters friend. Seeing Emily in trouble, Mrs. Noelle quickly spoke up.
Vivian Ferguson nced at Mrs. Noelle, seeing her cover-up but not intending to expose her, and continued to ask along her words.
Friend? What kind of friend?
Cam, who was beside her, had a smug smile on her face upon seeing Vivian Fergusons attitude towards Emily.
She wouldnt be able to stay here any longer. With her aunts authority, she couldnt even drive away a mere mistress!
At this question, even Mrs. Noelle was at a loss..

If the truth were told, it would definitely harm this youngdy, but if they lied, the ones who would suffer would still be the servants.
Mrs. Noelle looked at Vivian Ferguson and Emily Walker, finding it difficult to speak for a moment.
Whats your name? Vivian Ferguson stared seriously at Emily Walker. She knew very well, a girl in her youth living in her sons house C what could their rtionship be!?
Emily raised her eyes, clearly noticing Cam Walkers smirk.
My name is Emily Walker. Knowing that the other party might be Baron Stuarts mother, Emilys heart was a little timid.
Her fear was not of her but of the noblewoman, as if thest bit of self-esteem she had left seemed to be even more negligible.
These rich people seemed to be born with a tendency to always be superior.
Not familiar with the name, Vivian Ferguson pursed her lips and asked, What do you do? How did you meet Baron Stuart?
Her tone was neither warm nor angry, but her voice was very serious, and her inherent authority made Emilys heart extremely at a loss.
11 work at Future -
Aunt. Before Emilys words coulde out, she heard Cam Walker speak, with a smirk of triumph at the corner of her mouth. She used to be a server at Sea Sky Hotel. Thest time we went there for a meal, she served us.
Upon hearing this, Vivian Ferguson nced at Cam Walker and lowered her eyelids, seemingly recalling it.
A waitress? How exactly did a small waitress meet Baron Stuart? And what method did she use to get here?
Taking a closer look at Emily again, Vivian Ferguson asked softly, Did you stay herest night?
This question pushed inexperienced Emily to a corner.
She nodded slightly, Yes.
With her nod, Vivian Fergusons dark pupils evidently became shocked. She stared straight at the person in front of her, and it was obvious she was bing annoyed because of Emilys confession. Her hand, holding a genuine leather handbag, started to tighten slightly!
I dont care who you are or what your rtionship with Baron Stuart is! From now on, take your things and leave this house immediately!
Upon hearing this, Emily suddenly raised her head. To have her leave this ce?
Heh, she couldnt wait!
But why was there an inexplicable pain in her chest when she finally had the opportunity to leave?
Fine. Emily let out a forced smile upon hearing this. It seemed like a smile but was bitter for her.
After saying Fine, Emily turned around to go upstairs and pack her things.
She had been wanting to leave this ce for a long time. If it werent for that mans persistent threats, she would have moved out long ago, sparing herself the humiliation of today.
Just as she turned to go upstairs, she saw a figure at the second-floor staircase entrance.
With that figure, Emily suddenly stopped in her tracks.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Baron Stuart stood with a grave expression, standing straight at the staircase entrance on the second floor, and then walked down.
You agreed to the bet, havent you forgotten? In the middle of the staircase, Baron Stuart paused, his deep pupils staring straight at Emily.
Emily raised her eyes upon hearing this, her gaze somewhat confused.
At this point, why was this man still saying such things to her?
Wha-what do you mean? Emily looked at him, hesitating to speak. Whether it was because of the pain in her heart or something else, her voice trembled slightly as she spoke.
Dont take my words lightly.. If I get serious, do you know what I can do?
Chapter 128 - 128: 128: Let Her Go, Leave Now!

Trantor: 549690339
Dont take my words lightly. If I get serious, do you know what Im capable of? Baron Stuart looked at her, his icy face void of any warmth. Yet deep within his dark pupils, there was hidden affection.
Emily Walker looked at him, momentarily puzzled by the meaning of his words.
What did he mean by if I get serious and what Im capable of?
He nced at her and turned to walk downstairs, arriving in front of Vivian Ferguson.
Baron, do you know your position? As soon as she saw her son, Vivian
Ferguson was filled with fury, righteously using him, As the CEO of
Futuren Group, as someones fiance, how could you do such a thing!?
For more than twenty years, her son had always acted with restraint. Now that he was engaged to someone else, and having such behavior, if this gets out, where would the Stuart familys face go, where would the Futuren Groups reputation go!
You let her walk out right now, immediately! Vivian Ferguson pointed angrily at Emily Walker standing behind her son.
As for his mothers rage, Baron remained indifferent, his face as cold as ice,
Shes not leaving. Without my permission, shes not going anywhere.
Baron calmly looked at his mother, his tone filled with unprecedented indifference.
Hearing this, Vivian Fergusons eyes widened.
Even though she has left many things to her son, as hes bing more mature and independent, she gradually stopped intervening. But she cannot be out of this matter today!
Baron, are you not even listening to your mothers words now!? Vivian Ferguson was rarely angry. Always, Baron had been very considerate on everything and had never upset her.
But now, his attitude toward her was so because of one woman.N?v(el)B\\jnn
I didnt disobey you, He calmly looked at her, his tone as in as ever, I just want you and grandpa not to restrict my life.
Not restrict your life? So that gives you the leeway to cause such trouble for me!? Dont forget, you already have a fiancee! The thing that made Vivian Ferguson most angry was this. As the heir of Futuren Group who would be leading the entire corporation in the future, how could he be having a secret mistress!
Upon hearing this, a trace of impatience flickered across Barons cold face, Mom, Ive said it before. I do not want the marriage. I will not marry her.
Even though Cam Walker was standing beside Vivian Ferguson, Baron didnt nce at her from start to end, as if she was invisible to him.
What did you say? At his words, Vivian Ferguson looked at her son, stunned. She could hardly believe he was still talking like this.
Cam Walker, standing beside, also didnt expect him to be so outspoken. Her clenched fists tightened unconsciously, and her expression was furious. But she didnt want to show too much anger, she can only keep her hatred inside her heart!
Worried that such a statement would affect the marriage between the Stuart and Bailey families, Vivian Ferguson couldnt help but nce at Cam Walker beside her, then turned back to Baron, Alright. It looks like only your grandpa can handle you now.
With a deep sigh, Vivian Ferguson temporarily suppressed her fury, and calmed herself.
She nced at Emily Walker behind Baron and immediately turned to Cam Walker with a smile, Cam Walker, dont worry. As long as his grandpa is here, your marriage with Baron wont be annulled.
Upon hearing this, Cam Walker looked up and revealed a gentle smile. In order to maintain her image, she refrained from showing jealousy as before.

Well go back first. Vivian Ferguson knew that she couldnt control her son, and the only thing she could do was to wait for the Old Master, who was traveling abroad, to solve this matter.
However, no one knew which country the Old Master was in at the moment. Ever since he left, he had always called home on his own, and the family couldnt find him.
After ncing at the two by the staircase entrance, Vivian Ferguson sighed and left the vi, heading towards the grand entrance.
Cam Walker shot a resentful re at Emily Walker before she unwillingly turned around and left.
Once the two had left, Baron Stuart turned and approached Emily Walker, who was standing in the middle of the staircase.
He gently lifted his hand, holding her chin, his ck obsidian-like pupils seemingly trying to see the woman before himpletely. His expression was cold, but his tone was friendly, From now on, no matter who instructs you, you are not allowed to leave me for half a step without my permission.
Emily Walker stared at the man in front of her, unable to understand what he meant for her.
In his heart, was she a personal pet, or just a novelty that he had for a moment?
But
No buts! Emily Walker wanted to say something, but Baron Stuart seemed to know her buts and quickly interrupted her thoughts.
He stared intently at the woman before him, and for an instant, he couldnt understand his own thoughts.
Did he actually worry that one day, this woman would suddenly disappear from his sight?
Emily Walker pursed her lips, swallowing back the but she was just about to
say.
In any case, regardless of what she said, perhaps none of it was useful in front of this man, so instead of saying it, she might as well find a good opportunity to leaveter.
Changing the topic, Emily Walker thought of her little brother.
11 want to see my little brother, I havent seen him for a long time. She really missed her little brother, and Wace Carter must be worried about her too.
After all, she hadnt gone to see him for more than half a month.
Baron Stuart stared at her, making sure she had taken his words to heart before showing a rare faint smile. His thin lips hooked, charmingly addictive.
Then lets go now.
After finishing, he pulled the woman beside him and they walked towards the room on the second floor.
Emily Walker followed him into the bedroom, still thinking about his words.
Did this man intend to go with her to see her little brother?
The two of them entered the room together and changed into outdoor clothes. Baron Stuart then drove his white Maserati out of the vi.
The car drove through the bustling metropolis, the reflection outside the car window passing by like time flying by, disappearing from sight.
Looking at the unfamiliar road outside the window, Emily Walker frowned in confusion.
Where on earth had this man hidden her little brother?
Half an hourter, the car did not leave the city district, but stopped at a premium hospital.
Looking at the dozen-storey building standing in the city district, Emily Walker looked up. Although she hadnt been here before, she wasnt unfamiliar with the hospital.
The hospitals reputation once shocked the world and was well-known. Of course, ordinary people couldnt afford to stay in this hospital.
She turned her head and looked at the man beside her.
Baron Stuart also looked at her but didnt speak, instead, he walked straight into the hospital.
Seeing this, Emily Walker quickly regained her senses and hurriedly followed.
Seeing the crowded elevator entrance from a distance, Emily Walkers face was full of worry.. With so many people, when would it be their turn?

Just as she was about to walk straight to the elevator entrance, a strong hand grabbed her and led her down another corridor.
This was a VIP exclusive passage, with only the footsteps of the two echoing through the quiet corridor.
The elevator went directly to the 12th floor, and within a few minutes, Emily Walker arrived at her little brothers private ward.
At this time, Wace Carter was sitting on the hospital bed, reading a newspaper. When he saw someone entering, he looked up towards the door of the room.
As soon as he saw his sister, he immediately put aside his work.
Sister!
The moment Emily walked in and saw her brothers energetic appearance, she immediately smiled and said, Wace.
He looked much healthier after not being seen for only half a month, and she was pleasantly surprised!
Sister, where have you been? Why didnt youe to see me for so long? And also, why did you suddenly transfer me to such a luxurious hospital? How can you afford the expensive admission fees?
That day, without knowing anything, he was transferred to this hospital. The hospital said that his sister had arranged the transfer, but he didnt even glimpse her that day, which made him worried.
Moreover, she had note to visit him for so many days, which made him very anxious, almost running out of the hospital to find her!
Waces series of questions left Emily at a loss for answers for a moment. She hesitated, not knowing what to say.
At this moment, Wace finally noticed the other man who hade in with her.
He nced at Baron Stuart, who had entered from the hospital room entrance, and his appearance seemed somewhat familiar to him.
This man isnt he the heir of Futuren Group!?
Sister, he he turned to his sister, surprised by this mans appearance. Following Waces gaze, Emily noticed that Baron Stuart had also entered. Emily hurriedly exined, He he is a friend of mine!
To keep her little brother from worrying, it was better not to tell him about her rtionship with Baron Stuart.
Friend? Wace was even more astonished, as if suddenly understanding something. He frowned and looked at his sister, Sister, he is the heir of Futuren Group, how did you be friends with him?
As soon as the words left his mouth, Wace realized why he had been transferred to such a luxurious hospital!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Although he was young, only 18 years old, he understood many things.
During the campus, he often heard about other female college students being sponsored by wealthy men, living infort and luxury.
Could it be that his sister was also being sponsored by the man in front of them? Was that why he was admitted to such a high-ss hospital?
Waces words made Emilys pupils widen in shock, not expecting her brother to recognize Baron Stuart.
For a moment, she was at a loss for words, I I am
Sister, are you? Wace looked at his sister with heartache, suddenly realizing why she hade up with the initial expensive surgery fees overnight.
It must have been then, that his sister had
As if understanding what her brother had noticed, Emily hung her head sadly.
Then she looked up and smiled at Wace, Wace, you dont have to worry about anything now, just focus on getting better. As long as youre okay, Ill be
at ease.
As long as her brother was fine, she would be fine too.
Looking at his sister, Wace closed his eyes in pain, then forced a smile, Dont worry, sister. In about two weeks, I will be discharged (from the hospital)..

As for what he owes his sister, hell definitely make it up to her once hes discharged from the hospital!
Now, no matter what he says, its already toote.
Emily Walker smiled faintly. Since the ident at home, Wace Carter seemed to have really matured a lot and was no longer as reckless as he used to be.
Wace turned his head and nced at Baron Stuart not far away.
During his days at the hospital, he had read some magazines and knew the heir to the Futuren Group was already engaged. A man with a fiance wouldnt bring his sister any happiness or joy being with him.
As he met Waces gaze, Baron Stuarts expression remained cold and indifferent.
After discussing recent events with his brother in the hospital, two hours quickly passed.
At 3:30 PM, both of them left the hospital together.
Baron Stuart couldnt bear the sweltering summer heat so he rushed into his sports car as soon as he got out of the hospital, turning on the air conditioning.
Perhaps feeling a bit tired, Emily dozed off in the passenger seat.
As they drove toward the crossroads, the red light came on. While waiting, Baron Stuart nced at the woman in the passenger seat.
Her sleeping face was very serene, her long eyshes fluttering asionally. It was probably because sleeping in the car wasnt thatfortable.
Just as Baron Stuart lifted the corner of his mouth, the green light came on.
He turned his head and drove the Maserati through the crossroads. However, just as he was driving the luxury car smoothly, there was a sudden loud noise up ahead followed by a series of urgent brake sounds!n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Emily, who had been dozing off in the passenger seat, woke up with a start and looked frantically out of the car window, not knowing yet what had happened!
As she looked ahead, the scene before her made her eyes widen!
For some reason, the cars at the crossroads seemed to have lost control and were careening about. The screeching of brakes filled the air, piercing their eardrums. Horrified by the sight, Emilys face turned pale!
Before she could react, she saw a van in front of their car rolling towards them. It was about to crash into Baron Stuarts white sports car!
As a human instinct, Emily let out a mental scream and subconsciously raised her arm, burying her face quickly!
Just as she bowed her head and closed her eyes tightly, she suddenly felt her body being tightly wrapped by something. Then, she heard a loud noise in front of her
When everything around her became calm, Emily slowly opened her eyes and lifted her head.
In a blur, she felt the heavy weight on her body. When she looked up, she saw a van on its side suspended above their car, the windshield shattered, with shards scattered everywhere!
Regaining her senses, Emily finally began to notice the thing on her body.
Looking at the man lying motionless on top of her, Emily panicked!
At this moment, this mans arm still encircled her tightly beneath his chest.
She finally understood what the thing that had been surrounding her was just before the explosion!
Hey? Are you alright? The surroundings became quiet, and she lifted her head as well, but the man stilly motionless on top of her..

Emily Walker panicked, her voice trembling slightly, Hello? Baron Stuart? She pushed the man on top of her, but never received any response. Extreme fear rose from the bottom of Emilys heart, along with immense dread.
She was anxious, so anxious that she was at a loss for what to do!
Hey, Baron Stuart say something wake up As she pushed him, his head, which had been resting in her neck, turned over. In front of her eyes was a stunningly handsome face, but his eyes were tightly closed.
Looking at his lifeless appearance, Emilys heart sank heavily, as if a sharp de was stabbing her chest, making her feel suffocated.
Baron Stuart? She raised her hand, trying to help the man on her to get up, while calling, Baron Stuart please
Before she could finish speaking, Emily felt her hand on his back getting stained with a sticky liquid, and her expression suddenly turned grim.
She slowly lifted her hand from his back, only to see it covered in bright red blood, making her forget to breathe.
Umm With her touch, the man in her arms groaned, his eyebrows knitted tightly together, seemingly in great pain.
Seeing him finally make a sound, Emily came back to her senses from her stupor, her face filled with an unknown anxiety and fear as she looked at him.
Her voice trembled, tears swirling in her eyes but not falling, You youre awake
As he opened his eyes, Emily broke into tears ofughter, her heart full of limitless gratitude.
Baron Stuart weakly opened his eyes, looking at the woman in front of him. When he knew she was unharmed, his heart finally settled down, and he closed his eyes again soon after.
Hospital
Emily Walker sat dispiritedly in the chair by the door of the resuscitation room, her expression gloomy.
She didnt understand, why did the man in the resuscitation room protect her with his body during that particr moment? Did he not care about his life?
An hour ago, a truck loaded with chemical substances exploded, instantly causing all vehicles at the crossroads to lose control and collide randomly, the center of the road bing chaotic.
At that time, Baron Stuarts sports car was directly hit by an overturned van. If he hadnt protected Emily, she might have been the one lying in the resuscitation room now.
While Emily was lost in thought about all of this, there were urgent footstepsing from the hospital corridor!
Looking up, Emily immediately spotted Vivian Ferguson, Be Stuart, Cam Walker, and others hurriedly approaching from the other end of the corridor.
Seeing Baron Stuarts family membersing over, Emily stood up.
You actually have the nerve to stand here? Upon seeing her, Cam Walker willed with anger, staring straight at Emily Walker and coldly asked, I heard that Baron Stuart had an ident because he was sending you to the hospital?
Beforeing here, Cam had already investigated the real cause of Baron Stuarts ident.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Emily lowered her head, not denying it.
Indeed, it had happened on the way back from taking her to the hospital.
Im sorry After a long time, Emily finally uttered a few words with an apologetic tone.
She didnt want any of this to happen more than anyone else.
If youre really sorry, I hope you will disappear from Baron Stuarts sight from now on. The one who spoke was Vivian Ferguson.
As she looked at Emily Walker, her face filled with rage. If it wasnt for this girl, her son wouldnt have faced such a situation.
Hearing this, Emily suddenly lifted her head, staring nkly at her.
She looked at Vivian Ferguson, but heard Baron Stuarts voice in her ear: From now on, no matter whos order it is, youre not allowed to leave my side without my permission.
Dears, Im sorry, I was too busy today.. I will update more tomorrow! Please forgive me!

I hope you can be clear about your identity. Baron Stuart is the vital lifeline of our Stuart family. He is the only heir to the Futuren Group. Do you know how valuable his life is!? Vivian Ferguson continued speaking.
Emily Walker lowered her head again. Valuable life?
Indeed, his life was more precious than that of ordinary people.
And she couldnt afford his valuable life.
Mother, we cant entirely me her for this incident after all, since she wasnt the one who caused the ident Seeing Emily being used by her mother and Cami Walker, Be Stuart somehow felt a little upset for her. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
After all, it was the truck that caused the ident, not anyone elses fault.
Seeing her daughter defending an outsider, Vivian Ferguson turned her face in surprise, looked at her daughter, and growled dissatisfiedly, Your brother is like this, and youre actually helping her speak up!
Hearing this, Be Stuart pursed her lips, silently closed her mouth, and dared not say more.
Vivian Ferguson turned her face and looked at Emily Walker arrogantly.
Baron Stuart was her lifeline, and she would never allow a woman to ruin him!
Perhaps as a mother, it would be cruel for her to take away the things he wanted, but she couldnt see what was good about the girl in front of her.
Whether it was looks, figure, or family background, she was no match for Cam Walker. Shouldnt he choose someone better if he was going to have a privately kept lover?
You better pray that Baron Stuart is okay, otherwise, I will make you pay a painful price! Vivian Ferguson nced at Emily Walker, and after she finished speaking, she turned to look at the emergency room, Leave here immediately, I dont want to see you!
Although Vivian Ferguson only showed anger, her heart was still anxious. In the past 28 years, her son had hardly ever been sick. Now, he was in critical condition. How could she not be anxious, how could she not be worried?
As she turned around, the anger vanished from her face, leaving only the anxiety and fear of a mother.
Tears gradually filled her eyes, unnoticed by Be Stuart and Cam Walker who were standing behind her. Only Emily Walker, who was standing to the side, noticed.
She raised her eyes and nced at the direction of the emergency room, before turning around with a sad expression and leaving.
Watching her leave, Be Stuart felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Just as Emily Walker reached the corner, the door of the emergency room was opened, and a doctor came out with an anxious expression.
Before the doctor spoke, Vivian Ferguson hurriedly wiped away the tears in her eyes and approached him anxiously, asking, Hows my son?
The doctor looked at Vivian Ferguson, then at the people in front of him. Mr. Stuart has been stabbed in the back with arge piece of broken ss, causing the wound to be too deep, leading to excessive blood loss. Our hospitals blood storage is now in critical condition. Do any of you have Type B blood?
Having said this, the doctor looked at everyone anxiously.
Vivian Ferguson and the others exchanged nces, bing panicked for a moment.
Be Stuart became anxious as well. She and her mother were both Type A. What should they do now!?
She turned her head and looked at the two bodyguards behind her. Which of you is Type B?
The two bodyguards looked at each other, then turned back to Be Stuart and shook their heads to indicate that they were not.
Seeing them shaking their heads, both Be Stuart and Vivian Ferguson were truly worried!
What about thisdy? Are you? Since other people had been asked, now only Cam Walker, who was standing next to Vivian Ferguson, hadnt been asked. The doctor quickly turned his gaze to her..

At this moment, Cam Walker seemed to be deep in thought. She was taken aback by the doctors abrupt question, quickly raising her gaze, appearing somewhat flustered, What? I
She mumbled for a second, and after some silence, she said, I, Im not either. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
What scared her the most was the prospect of a transfusion C she would rather die than go through with something like that!
Even though Cam Walker wasnt type B, she was, in fact, type O, which could be transfused to a type B recipient. But the thought of the terrifying needle piercing her skin made her deny she was O-type at all cost!
At this, Vivian Ferguson was utterly desperate. Her hands and feet were in chaos for a moment, and the tears she had previously forced back finally spilled out, her face full of worry!
What to do what to do now
I am B-type. At that moment, a voice came from behind them.
Everyone turned towards the sound and looked surprised at who had spoken.
Hadnt she left?
Indeed, Emily Walker had left. However, when the door to the emergency room was pushed open, she stopped at the corner, wanting to know about Baron Stuarts condition, and hid, listening to what the doctor was saying.
Her words made both Vivian Ferguson and Be Stuart pause. Even Cam Walker, standing off to the side, looked at her in disbelief.
Youre B-type? The doctor asked eagerly when he saw her approach.
Emily Walker nodded, Yes.
Come with me! With that, the doctor quickly marched Emily Walker towards the emergency room!
Vivian Ferguson and the others snapped back to reality only when the door to the emergency room was closed once again.
Mother Be Stuart wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and looked at her mother.
Now theres hope for her brother!
Vivian Ferguson stared nkly in the direction of the emergency room, her expression thoughtful.
In the ER, a doctor was performing a blood check on Emily Walker.
Miss, you are anemic. Insisting on blood transfusion could have an impact on your health.
After the examination, the doctor found that this girl before him was indeed anemic. If she insisted on donating 400ml of blood, it might cause certain harm to her body.
Ill be fine. Saving lives is whats important! Emily looked at the man lying on the surgery table opposite her, her heart unsettled, filled with fear.
He was lying here, all because of her.
If she hadnt suddenly mentioned going to the hospital, he would not have given her a lift. If he didnt give her a lift, none of this would have happened.
At the root of it all, even if she had to give all of her blood, it was what she owed him.
Seeing her insistence, the doctor, faced with such a critical issue, nced at her and reluctantly decided only to take 200ml of blood. At least it would serve to save the person on the operation table.
But if too much was withdrawn, it could lead to a sudden blood loss shock which would be a problem.
However, in the end, due to Emilys insistence, the doctor collected 300ml of blood.
Emilyy quietly on the hospital bed, watching her blood slowly flow from the transfusion tube into the opposite beds man, feeling an inexplicable smile at the corner of her mouth. Gradually it became a mix of joy and bitterness.
Because she was anemic, the transfusion process was rtively slow. Only after nearly an hour did Emily leave the operating table.
After taking a deep look at the man lying on the hospital bed, with his eyes tightly closed, she left the room with a pale face.
Her colorless face caused Be Stuart and Vivian Ferguson to gasp noticeably.
The way she was now and how she was before entering the room were like two different people.
You Are you okay? Be Stuart approached her, her paleplexion was too startling..
Chapter 135 - 135: I’m Going to Find Her!
Chapter 135: Im Going to Find Her!
Trantor: 549690339
Even her lips were starting to turn pale.
Emily Walker weakly lifted her eyes to look at Be Stuart, then shook her head, Im fine.
After saying that, she didnt linger and left the hospital with her frail and weak body.
Looking at her departing figure, Vivian Ferguson felt an indescribable taste in her heart.
But this taste didnt stay in her heart for long, as soon she shifted her focus onto her son.
Baron Stuart was wheeled out by a doctor and transferred to a private ward.
Is my son alright now? Although her son was safe and sound, Vivian Ferguson still felt a little worried.
The doctor looked at her and smiled, Mr. Stuarts back has been cleared of broken ss, and there might be some scarringter, but its not a big problem. Thanks to that youngdy, Mr. Stuart was able to get out of danger in time.
Having said that, the doctor looked up but didnt see Emily Walker, feeling a little strange.
Huh, where is thatdy? She has had too much blood transfusion and needs to be hospitalized for observation.
Hospitalized for observation? Vivian Ferguson was stunned.
Yes, that youngdy has anemia and should have only given a maximum of 200ml blood. But when she learned that Mr. Stuart needed 400ml, she insisted on giving 300ml, which is really dangerous for someone with anemia! At this point, the doctor couldnt help but wonder about the identity of that youngdy.
Hearing this, Vivian Ferguson, Be Stuart, and Cam Walker were all taken aback together.
Ill go find her! Be Stuart had barely spoken when she had already dashed out of the hospital room.
Reaching the front door, Emily Walkers figure was nowhere to be seen, and Be Stuart panted anxiously, worried about her appearance when she left. Emily looked fragile, like she would fall with just a push.
What exactly had happened between her and her brother? Were they willing to risk their lives for each other?
Unable to find Emily Walker, Be Stuart dejectedly returned to the hospital room and looked at her mother, I couldnt find her.
Hearing this, Vivian Ferguson lowered her eyelids, then turned her head to look at the lying Baron Stuart, not saying anything else.
Ill go find her and bring her back! Cam Walker spoke up because she knew where Emily Walker would be at this time!
But would she really be so kind? Be Stuart was the first to doubt!
Last time, she had personally pushed Emily into the swimming pool, so she must have wished for Emily to die and wouldnt be so kind as to find her and bring her back to the hospital for observation!
Be Stuart looked at Cam Walker with suspicion, not believing she could have such a kind heart.
Vivian Ferguson turned her head and, although she didnt really like the girl named Emily Walker, she had ultimately given blood to her son. Without saying anything more, she silently nodded.
Cam Walker turned around and as she left the hospital room, the corners of her mouth lifted into an unidentifiable smile, as if she had some sinister n in mind!
After leaving the hospital, Cam Walker drove her red sports car to Baron Stuarts private residence.
She was certain that Emily Walker would be at this house right now!
Getting out of the car, Cam Walker pressed the doorbell.
By this time, Mrs. Noelle was worried about Emily, who had just returned with her pale face, which had truly given her a fright!
Emily was leaning on the sofa, and when she heard the doorbell ringing, she raised her head and looked in the doors direction.
She nced at Mrs. Noelle, signaling her not to worry about her and to go open the door. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
At this moment, she didnt know who was there.
It was Baron Stuarts house, so people generally came here to look for him.
After understanding, Mrs. Noelle went out and opened the door. Lady Walker? Mrs. Noelle was somewhat surprised by her arrival..

Trantor: 549690339
Previously, it seemed, from Lady Walkers tone, that she didnt like Lady Carter at all.
Now, with the young master not around, she wondered how Lady Walker would make things difficult for her.
Seeing Mrs. Noelle, Cam Walker smiled, but it was not friendly at all. Rather than calling it a smile, it was more like arrogance.
She walked into the living room and saw Emily Walker sitting on the sofa at a nce.
In this entire house, besides Emily Walker, there was only one servant left. So, for Cam Walker, this was the best moment to force her out!
Seeing Cam Walker, Emily Walker stood up. After a little while of rest, her face looked much better right now, although still a bit pale.
Seeing her, Cam Walker arrogantly lifted the corner of her mouth and then looked away, ncing at Mrs. Noelle who was standing beside.
Mrs. Noelle knew her ce and retreated upon making eye contact with her.
Cam Walker turned her head again, pulled her lips into a corner, and said to N?v(el)B\\jnn
Emily Walker, Auntie is grateful for the blood transfusion you gave to Baron Stuart, but ultimately, its because of you that hes lying there. So she doesnt want to see you living in this house anymore!
Upon hearing that, Emily Walker raised her eyes, understanding Cam Walkers intention.
This was their opportunity to force her to leave while Baron Stuart was not around.
She wanted to leave this ce, but every time she decided to do so, she heard that mans voice in her ears: No matter who orders you, without my permission, you are not allowed to leave my side.
Not allowed to leave his side, what did this sentence really mean? Emily Walker bitterly smiled.
A man who already has a fiance will not let anyone else leave him for a moment.
Perhaps this time is her only chance to leave this man.
She looked up at Cam Walker and managed a smile, neither humble nor arrogant, I will leave, but you need to give me some time, because before I leave, I have a lot of things to deal with.
Once she left, she must leave absolutely: resign from her job at the Futuren Group, transfer her little brother to another hospital, and never have any contact with this man again.
Everything would return to the beginning.
However, while the starting point could go back to the beginning, she wondered if anything could truly return to its origin..
Fine, as long as you leave before Baron Stuart is discharged. After saying that, Cam Walker smiled triumphantly and took out a check from her bag which she had already filled out, handing it to Emily Walker, This is from my aunt, for the reward of selling blood!
Looking at the check handed to her, Emily Walker was stunned and squeezed out a bitter smile.
Scoffing, a reward for selling blood?
She epted the check and had a nce to know how much this 300ml of blood was worth.
Lowering her eyelids, Emily Walker nced at the number on it: 1.5 million
Scoff, it seemed like there was some kind of connection between her and this number.
This is what you deserve. Originally, this 300ml of blood wouldnt be worth much, but because you saved the Futuren Groups Baron Stuart, youve earned this. Cam Walker raised a sarcastic smile and stared intently at Emily Walker in front of her.
Emily Walker chuckled upon hearing her words. She wasnt a blood seller! Even if she really wanted to sell it, she wouldnt sell it to that hateful man!
She looked up at the so-called fiance of that man, Lady Walker, you might not know, but the reason I gave him blood transfusion was because
Thinking back to the critical moment, the man tightly holding her in his double arm, Emily Walker felt a dull pain in her heart once again..

Trantor: 549690339
She paused for a moment and continuedughing as before, Because he took the hit from that ss for me. If it wasnt for him, it might have been me lying in the hospital.
Even if she had to leave, she wanted to fill the proud and arrogant Cam Walkers heart with jealousy, so shed hate her!
So you can take this check back, because he protected me with his life, and my blood transfusion to him was simply to repay his kindness.
She deliberately emphasized the word life, and sure enough, she saw Cams face twitching in anger, ring at her!
_cam was so angry by her words that she clenched her teeth and fists!
Could it be that Baron Stuart really got hurt so badly trying to protect this damn woman?
When she thought of this possibility, Cam couldnt wait to tear Emily Walker apart!
She took back the check and left a warning, Whether you want this check or not, I will tell Aunt that you will leave before Baron Stuartes back.
If you dont want to embarrass yourself, youd better know your ce and stop ying tricks!
Once Baron Stuart woke up, getting rid of this woman wouldnt be so easy, so Cam had to seize this opportunity!
After saying that, Cam red at Emily onest time and turned to leave the residence.
Watching her disappear at the front door, Emily copsed onto the sofa, 100K1ng even paler.
Hospital
By the time Cam returned to the hospital, it was already 7 PM. In the hospital room, Vivian Ferguson and Be Stuart, mother and daughter, guarded the hospital bed without leaving for a moment.
Two hours had passed, and Baron Stuart had not yet woken up.
Although the doctor said it was only a temporarya and there was no danger to his life, Vivian was still very worried. N?v(el)B\\jnn
Aunt. Cam entered and greeted her politely, then looked at the bed, Is Stuart still not awake?
Vivian looked at her and sighed, shaking her head.
Oh, by the way, did you see her I mean, Emily Walker? As cold-blooded as Vivian could be, she was still somewhat worried about Emily after recalling the girls pale face when she left.
Although Baron Stuarts ident was rted to Emily, she was there at the time to help with the emergency. Ultimately, Vivian didnt want to treat Emily unfairly for her act of donating blood.upd?t? ?t ?ew?o?el . ?rg
Cam nodded and smiled, I saw her. I asked her toe to the hospital for a check-up, but she seemed to have other things to do and refused toe. As she said that, Cam showed no signs of shame or guilt.
Really? Vivian lowered her eyes, pondering in silence before raising her head again, How is she doing then?
Nothing serious. Although she looked terrifying at the hospital, herplexion has recovered once we got home. Cam answered with a smile. Upon hearing her words, Vivian felt relieved and didnt think too much about it any further.
However, Be, who had been listening, didnt believe Cams words at all! She red at Cam and asked, Did you really see her?!
Herplexion recovered? How could such a terrifying face could recover so quickly!
Regarding Bes question, Cam remained calm, Of course, I not only saw her, but she also asked me for a check of 1.5 million.
Hearing this, both Be and Vivian looked at Cam at the same time..
Chapter 138 - 138: 138: Distorting the Facts 2
Chapter 138 - 138: 138: Distorting the Facts 2
Trantor: 549690339
A check for 1.5 million? Sure enough, any child born into a poor household who gets close to Baron Stuart is only interested in money.
After hearing this, Emily Walkers image in Vivian Fergusons heart greatly diminished, obliterating any remaining vestiges of her goodwill.
But when Be Stuart heard this, she was somewhat puzzled.
She asked you for a check of 1.5 million? Why? She asked Cam Walker incredulously.
Despite everything, she found it hard to believe that Emily Walker was a greedy person.
Because she said she didnt want to donate blood for free and wanted somepensation, Cam lied facilely, as if such a thing had really happened.
At this point, Vivian Fergusons face turned increasingly embarrassed. She didnt think Emily had saved her son with such motives in mind.
She turned her head and looked at Cam, Did you give her the money?
No, I definitely didnt give her money because Baron Stuart is lying here because of her, how could I give her money! After saying that, Cam walked to Baron Stuarts hospital bed with a heartbroken look on her face.
Vivian Ferguson straightened up and gave Cam a smile, You did well.
Originally, she wanted to thank Emily for her generous donation, but now it seemed entirely unnecessary.
Because a girl like this was certainly not worth it!
Be Stuart, on the other hand, found Cams words hard to believe.
Because if it were true that Emily donated blood to save her brother for money, Emily couldve mentioned it in front of them afterward.
But she didnt, she just quietly left the hospital.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Did Emily n for Cam to go find her afterward? And how could she suddenly ask for money?
Did Cam really meet her at all?
Be was filled with suspicion as she stared at Cams back.
Both of you remember, dont let Baron Stuart know about this blood transfusion. Vivian looked at her daughter and Cam in the hospital room. Regardless, she was determined to keep that greedy child away from Baron Stuart.
So there was no way she would let him know about the blood transfusion.
Hearing this, Cam smirked in satisfaction, Alright!
But Be protested, Mom, why cant we let Brother know about it? Its such a big deal, even if we dont say it, Brother will definitely find out that he had a blood transfusion!
Even if they didnt say anything, Brother would find out if he asked the doctors, and with his keen sensitivity, who could guarantee he wouldnt sense someone elses blood in his body?
Then tell him it was Cams blood. Vivian had expected this, but it wasnt a
problem, she would handle the doctors.
No matter what, she definitely couldnt keep Emily around Baron Stuart! It would be better for him, Futuren Corporation, and the Stuart family if she left.
What!? Bes eyes widened, she couldnt believe this wasing from her mothers mouth.
Her mother rarely lied, but now she was telling such a huge lie. Mom, what are you up to?
Mom, how can you say that? The blood isnt Cams, how can you say it was hers that were transfused! Be protested resentfully.
This is utterly unfair to both Brother and Emily, especially Cam, damn it, she is getting off too easy! Damn!

Moreover, the doctor had said that Emily Walker risked her life giving blood to her brother. How could she let such a great contribution be attributed to the damned Cam Walker? Just thinking about it made her very upset!
Be, Im doing this for your brothers sake, especially for you. If you dare to tell your brother about this, Ill ground you at home! Vivian Fergusons biggest concern was her outspoken daughter, knowing that she would not be able to keep a secret.
It seemed like she had to find a way to shut her daughters mouth.
Got it!
Vivian Ferguson suddenly raised a smile and looked at her beloved daughter, If you keep this a secret, Ill ask your grandpa to give you a sports car on your birthday.
She knew that a sports car was her daughters weakness.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Be Stuart swallowed, as this was a huge temptation ror ner!
Mom, this is really immoral, you know?
Should she keep the secret or not? If she didnt, she would lose her sports car. How much she wanted to drive a sports car and cruise around!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even though it might cause some traffic idents
But if she kept the secret, would it be too for her brother and Emily Walker?
Seeing her daughter wavering, Vivian Ferguson continued, This is a rare opportunity, if you dont want it, forget it.
After saying that, she turned her head away.
Who said I dont want it! Be Stuart blurted out, muttering, I-I will keep the secret!
God, why did she feel like she was destined to be struck by lightning?
Doing something guilty was really hard to bear. Oh God, please forgive me!
I promise that after my birthday next month and getting the sports car, I will tell my brother everything!
The next morning
After a night of rest, Emily Walkersplexion had improved, but she was still somewhat listless.
Early in the morning, she was about to go out when Vivian Ferguson arrived.
As soon as she entered, she saw Emily carrying a small backpack as if she was going out. Vivian Ferguson nced at her and then walked past her towards the living room sofa.
Can I go out? Wait for me to finish talking before you leave. Vivian Ferguson sat down, not even looking at Emily, always maintaining a cold and aloof demeanor.
Upon hearing the words, Emily hesitated and then turned around, her face showing neither submission nor arrogance.
If Madam Foster wants me to leave, dont worry, I am nning to go to thepany to resign. I will leave here before noon.
Vivian Ferguson nced at her, not expecting her to be so sensible. Was it because she was too ashamed to stay after not getting the money?
Its good that you can think this way. Since youve decided to leave, there are a few things I have to say. Vivian Ferguson turned her head and looked at her expressionlessly, waiting for a second before speaking coldly, With Baron Stuarts influence, even if you leave, it would be easy for him to find you.
What I want you to do is to recognize your own status. I will never let you meet Baron Stuart again, as you are a vain woman who covets wealth. You better face the truth and not y both sides.
She was really worried that after this girl left, she would be found by Baron Stuart again. At that time, it would be even more difficult for her to stop it.
Hearing Vivian Fergusons words, Emily Walker furrowed her brows inexplicably.. Vain and covetous of wealth?

Trantor: 549690339
Heh, perhaps thats true. To outsiders, someone like her moving in here would surely be seen as vanity and greed.
So, what is Madam Foster suggesting? Emily Walker looked at her with a self-mocking smile on her lips.
Vivian Ferguson looked up, What I mean is, if you can, it would be best for you to leave this city.
She said it lightly, but she had no idea how difficult such a casual statement was for someone else.
She had grown up in this city for 20 years and had never been anywhere else. How could she move away from this city? She truly felt stuck.
Moreover, her little brother was still in the hospital. How could she leave this City?
Emily Walker took a deep breath. Despite her anger, she had to suppress her displeasure in front of such a powerful and noble person.
Madam Foster, dont you think youre being unreasonable? Maybe moving from one city to another is easy for you, but have you ever thought about how difficult it is for us? Even survival is an issue! You just want me to leave and disappear from his sight, right? Ill do it, but why must you force me like this? Emily Walker spoke out angrily, infuriated by Vivian Fergusons words.
Vivian Ferguson obviously hadnt expected this seemingly gentle girl to rebut her and was momentarily stunned. But it onlysted for a second, and she quickly regained her aloof demeanor.
Perhaps, for a poor girl like her to leave one city for another, there would inevitably be some difficulties in life. But for the sake of her son, she had no choice but to do this.
Vivian Ferguson looked up,pletely unmoved by Emilys words. Indeed, this is hard for you, but you dont have to leave if you can promise me that once you do, youll cut off all ties with Baron Stuart. As long as you can do this, you can ask me for any condition.
House, check; as long as shes willing to leave, she can satisfy her.
Heh, any condition? Emily sneered, people like them really do whatever they want, always relying on power to get things done.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
I have no conditions. Ill leave, and as for your son, I dont think you need to worry at all. To him, Im just Emily paused before continuing, Just a privately kept lover. Once Im gone, it wont affect his daily life, so dont worry about that.
Also, if you want me to leave quickly, theres something I need your help with. After saying that, Emily looked at Vivian Ferguson, waiting for her to speak.
Hearing that Emily needed her help, Vivian Ferguson was also surprised, but as long as it was rted to her leaving, she didnt mind lending a hand.
Tell me, what is it?
I need to resign from the Futuren Group now, but theres a big project on my hands. Ive prepared the nning case, but suddenly resigning would definitely bring inconvenience to thepany. Regarding this, I hope that when I resign, if there are any issues, you can take responsibility for them in your name.
Before Vivian Fergusons arrival, Emily had been nning to quit her job and was thinking about this problem.
Now that she has mentioned it, Emily doesnt have to worry about this issue
anymore.
You work at the Futuren Group? Vivian Ferguson was a bit surprised by this and furrowed her brows..

Emily Walker lowered her eyelids, remaining unmoved by the astonishment, her expression still calm, Yes, but not for much longer.
When she first joined the Futuren Group, she thought she was one step closer to her dream, but now it seemed that her dream was getting further and further away from her.
Vivian Ferguson was silent for a while, wondering how Emily could be working at Futuren Group when she was supposed to be a waiter?
However, those things didnt matter anymore.
I can do that. Vivian Ferguson looked at her, as long as this was an obstacle for her to leave, she would certainly help.
Emily nced at her and then turned to go upstairs. Originally, she had nned toe back for her luggage after sorting out everything, but now it seemed unnecessary.
After taking the luggage down from the second floor, Emily looked at Vivian Ferguson on the sofa, but didnt say anything and went straight to the door with her luggage box.
Watching her leave, Vivian Ferguson finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyhow, she couldnt keep a girl like this by Baron Stuarts side.
Looking at Emily, who had disappeared at the door, Mrs. Noelles face silently darkened.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
She had been here for a while, and it seemed that Lady Carter was different in Young Masters heart. It was really too much to drive her away without his knowledge.
However, as servants, they dared not say much.
Mrs. Noelle. Just as Mrs. Noelle was lost in thought, watching Emily walk away, Vivian Ferguson spoke up to stop her.
Mrs. Noelle heard the voice and turned her head, respectfully walking over, Madam.
Vivian Ferguson looked up at her, and after a moment, she spoke calmly, About her departure, I hope you wont say much in front of Baron Stuart. Can you understand?
Mrs. Noelle had been with the Stuart Family for more than 20 years. Vivian Ferguson was generally good to her, but when it was time to be strict, she spared no effort.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Noelle was stunned, then realized what was going on and lowered her head, Yes, Madam.
Although she didnt know why Lady Carter suddenly decided to leave, Lady Walker hade yesterday, and now even the Madam hade in person. It probably had something to do with them, and it was a pity for Lady Carter.
Emily walked out of the luxury residence area and headed to a bus stop to catch the bus to Futuren Group, arriving 40 minutester.
Entering the familiar office, Emily didnt go to her own desk but walked straight to Megan Scotts office.
She knocked on the door and waited for a response before pushing the door open.
Megan Scott was busy with work, and she looked surprised to see Emilye in.
Director Scott, this is my resignation report. Emily approached Megan Scotts office desk and handed her the resignation report in her hand, looking calm andposed.
Megan Scott looked at the resignation report in her hand and frowned in surprise, What? Youre resigning?
She was unhappy about Emilys sudden resignation, as there was still a big project in her hands that was entirely entrusted to Emily.
Yes. Emily nodded.
If possible, she didnt want to leave here, because this was the corporation she had dreamed of joining since she was a child, the corporation that could help her fulfill her dreams.
Now that she had to leave, it was hard to let go.
Why do you suddenly want to resign? Dont you know that the design theme of that project is entirely in your hands?

Megan Scott sounded a bit anxious. Although she didnt really like Emily Walker, she couldnt deny her talent.
She even thought that this time, the theme project would definitely create a unique luxury mansion with Emilys design n. So why suddenly resign?
Whats the reason?
As for her roar, Emily seemed to have anticipated it and showed no surprise, still maintaining a calm expression.
I know, but Director Scott doesnt have to worry about this. Baron Stuart
Emily almost blurted out the name Baron Stuart but caught herself in time and corrected herself, saying, The president will handle this matter in a few days.
About Baron Stuarts ident, no one in thepany knew yet, not even Megan Scott, who was unaware of their presidents current whereabouts.
She furrowed her eyebrows, suspiciously looking at Emily, The CEO will handle this?
Based on her five years of working experience at Futuren Group and eight years of knowing Baron Stuart, he probably wouldnt approve of a sudden resignation like this. On the contrary, he should be the one who dislikes such things the most.
But Emily said that he would handle the aftermath? Was this possible?
Yes. Emily nodded once again.
Maybe he would handle it, considering that it was rted to the profits of the Futuren Group.
Then tell me, why do you suddenly resign? Megan Scott stopped her work and sat straight up, asking Emily.
Many people would kill for a chance to join Futuren Group, but Emily gave up such a good opportunity and chose to resign. It was beyond anyonesprehension.
As for this, Emily had prepared an exnation long ago.
My little brother needs to go to the countryside for medical treatment, and I have to take care of him, so I have to resign.
This was just an excuse, she and her little brother werent really going to the countryside.
As for her excuse, Megan Scott was half-skeptical. She knew about Emilys family situation to some extent, and that Emily had a hospitalized brother.
But would they really transfer his treatment to the countryside? Was it possible for the medical facilities and technology in the countryside to be better than here?
Or was it because of the cost?
In that case, the fees in the countryside were indeed cheaper.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
If there is nothing else, Ill leave now. Seeing her silent, Emily bent a little and walked out of Megan Scotts office.
Watching her leaving figure, Megan Scott couldnt help but feel that something was amiss. Why would she suddenly choose to resign?
After leaving the Futuren Group, Emily retrieved her luggage from the guard room and prepared to take a taxi to the hospital where her brother was staying.
Suddenly, she was grateful she had visited the hospital once before. Otherwise, she really wouldnt know how to leave
Emily realized that the hospital where her brother, Wace Carter, was staying was the same one as Baron Stuarts.
Upon arrival at the hospital, Emily went straight to the 12th floor of the Inpatient Department where her brother Wace was staying.
On the other hand, Baron Stuart was staying on the third floor opposite to them.
At this time, inside Baron Stuarts hospital room.
Cam Walker and Be Stuart were happily looking at the now-awake Baron Stuart.
Brother, you finally woke up! Be Stuart unceremoniously pushed Cam aside, looking at Baron Stuart with a joyful face.
He hadnt wake up for so long, she was really worried to death!
Seeing herself being suddenly pushed away, Cam red at Be Stuart. Since Baron Stuart had awakened, she couldnt say much; she silently gritted her teeth and clenched her fists!
Looking at the awake Baron Stuart, Vivian Ferguson smiled and said, Stuart, you finally woke up..

Baron Stuart cast her a nce, hisplexion looking much healthier now, though his lips were slightly dry.
He looked around and only saw his sister Be Stuart and Cam Walker, which slightly irritated him.
Could something have happened to that woman too?
His thoughts returned to the moment of the car ident, recalling that she was fine at that time.
He tried sitting up, but just as he lifted his body, the stitched wound on his back began to ache again.
He cringed subconsciously and groaned softly.
Brother, what are you trying to do? Do you want to sit up? Seeing this, Be Stuart quickly bent down to help him up.
Cam Walker, who was nearby, was also worried about his wound. She too leaned over to the other side of the bed to try and help Baron Stuart.
Baron Stuart did not respond to her assistance, opting to ignore it instead. Half sitting up, Baron Stuart looked up at his sister Be Stuart, Where did she
Hearing this, Be Stuart hesitated for a second, not quite realizing who she was in his words.
But perceptive Cam Walker understood right away. She had been guarding him here all night, only for him to ask about another woman upon waking up!
She was furious!
Cam Walker bit her lip angrily, the words that Emily Walker had said yesterday making her gnash her teeth with rage!
After a moment, Be Stuart seemed to understand, but the thought of the blood transfusion made her nervous; she didnt dare meet her brothers gaze as she hesitated to respond.
SheShe probably went back.
After giving blood yesterday, Emily Walker had left the hospital looking pale. She didnt know what the situation was now. She wanted to find her, but didnt know where she lived.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Noticing Be Stuarts sudden difort, Baron Stuart narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had realized something.
But on thinking that the damn woman had actually gone back, Baron Stuarts mood instantly dropped to a new low.
Find yton Howard for me. Baron Stuart sat precariously at the head of the bed, his handsome face gradually taking on ayer of frost.
On hearing that he wanted to find yton Howard, Be Stuart gulped, not knowing what he wanted to ask yton Howard.
Brother, whatwhat do you need yton Howard for? She looked at her brother cautiously, although he was her biological brother and doted on her, whenever she saw his icy face, Be Stuart still felt somewhat scared.
Herment only made Baron Stuart more suspicious.
His deep eyes narrowed slightly, as if he wanted to see right through his sister.
yton Howard was his personal butler, so it was perfectly normal for him to seek him out for any reason.
What are you nervous about? His eyes narrowed and his thin lips parted as he stared directly at Be Stuart.
From the looks of her nervousness, it seemed like there was something she was afraid he would find out.
Ah? Facing her brothers prating gaze, Be Stuart was taken aback, her eyes dodging his gaze in panic, No, nothing, Im not nervous!
She pretended to be calm, but was actually getting more and more flustered.
Cam Walker, on the other hand, was afraid that Baron Stuart would suddenly call in yton Howard and then ask about Emily Walker. She was staring at the nervous Be Stuart anxiously, afraid that a slip of her tongue would reveal everything.
I sent yton Howard to handle somepany matters. Just then, the door of the hospital room was opened, and Vivian Ferguson walked in.

Seeing Vivian Ferguson, Be Stuart and Cam Walker all breathed a sigh of relief.
Baron Stuart noticed this clearly as well.
Youre awake, tell Mother if theres still any difort? Does the wound still hurt? In order to change the subject, Vivian Ferguson walked to the hospital bed and shifted the conversation.
Baron Stuart looked up at his mother, who had obviously changed the subject. What exactly did these three people want to hide?
Be. He shifted his gaze to Be Stuart and spoke indifferently.
Be Stuart, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, was suddenly called by him, and her entire body trembled fiercely. Her copper-tinged pupils stared straight at her brother for a long time before she finally responded with a confused
Huh?
Give me the phone. Baron Stuart spoke calmly, having noticed her unusual behavior; he figured that he just needed to ask yton Howard to unravel the mystery.
Be Stuart came to her senses and took her phone from her bag to hand it over.
Seeing that her son wanted his cell phone, Vivian Ferguson worried, but she knew her son well C always meticulous and observant of small details C nothing could escape his eyes.
So now, the only thing she could do was to act as if nothing was wrong.
After the call was connected, Baron Stuart spoke calmly, Come here.
With just a simple sentence, he hung up the phone without waiting for yton Howard to respond on the other end.
He then returned the phone to Be Stuart.
After her son finished his call, Vivian Ferguson smiled and said, Baron Stuart, this time you must thank Cam properly.
Baron Stuart frowned, confused by her words.
He turned his head, his gaze narrowing slightly, and looked at his mother, waiting for her to continue.
You lost too much blood this time from your injury; if it wasnt for Cams blood transfusion, Im afraid you wouldnt have woken up so soon. As she spoke, Vivian Fergusons heart was actually somewhat uneasy.
After all, she had lived for 48 years and had never lied before. Now, to deliberately contradict her conscience and say that the blood was from Cam Walker, no matter what, made her feel extremely uneasy.
However, thinking that by doing so, Baron Stuart and Cam Walker might have a better rtionship in the future, she suppressed her difort.
Upon hearing her words, Baron Stuart frowned again, following Vivian Fergusons line of sight and ncing at Cam Walker beside him.
Seeing this, Cam Walker hurriedly showed an expectant smile.
But in the next second, Baron Stuarts face turned pale, and he turned around, his eyelids drooping as if lost in thought.
He had lost too much blood? Was there another womans blood flowing through his body?
Thinking of this, Baron Stuarts heart became extremely irritable, as if there was a surge of anger he couldnt vent!
Where the hell did that woman go?
Feeling the pent-up rage in his chest, he reached out his hand, turned his head, and looked at Be Stuart once again, Phone!
The three women in the hospital room saw him suddenly get angry and couldnt help but feel puzzled, not knowing what had happened to him all of a sudden.
Be Stuart was stunned, watching her brother looking furious, and thought he might have discovered something.
Could it be that he already knew that the blood wasnt from Cam Walker?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Awkwardly taking out the phone, Be Stuart handed it over again, and in order to not provoke her elder brothers temper, she bent her body to a ny-degree angle, as if inplete submission.
Baron Stuart epted the phone and immediately dialed yton Howards number once more.
As soon as the call was connected, without waiting for the other party to speak,
Baron Stuart roared, Why havent youe yet!

yton Howard on the other end waspletely confused.
It hasnt been five minutes since he hung up the phone, how could he get to the hospital in such a short time?
Right away. Having followed Baron Stuart for so many years, yton Howard had long been used to his temper and knew that his outbursts have never had any warning signs, nor did they need a reason.
After hanging up the phone, yton Howard immediately rushed to the hospital without stopping.
Meanwhile, the three women in the hospital room were all stunned by Baron Stuarts roar, including Vivian Ferguson who was also somewhat puzzled.
She had already exined everything to the doctor about the blood transfusion, and Baron Stuart shouldnt know that it was Emily Walker who donated the blood. Shouldnt he be nicer to her when he found out it was Cam Walker?
Why did he suddenly be irritable now?
Ten plus minutester, yton Howard arrived with sweat all over his body, not daring to dy for a second.
Pushing open the door and seeing Vivian Ferguson there, he walked to the bedside and respectfully bent over for her. Then, turning around to face the bedridden Baron Stuart, he said, Young Lord.
For the first time, the Young Master was in such a hurry to find him, and he didnt know what it was all about.
Baron Stuarts face was cold, and his eyes seemed to be pondering something, showing a hint of anger. He raised his eyes and looked straight ahead, his voice cold as ice and slow to speak, Go see what that woman is doing.
At this moment, Baron Stuart felt that the anger in his heart had nowhere to vent.
He had always been himself, but now, he had another womans blood flowing inside his body. Somehow, just thinking about it made him irritable and agitated.
yton Howard was slightly taken aback upon hearing this and did not immediately realize who the woman was in his mouth. Only after being silent for just two seconds, he suddenly understood and nodded slightly, Yes. Once he spoke, the other three people in the room understood who the woman he was referring to was.
Watching yton Howard leave the room, Vivian Ferguson turned and looked at Baron Stuart, speaking in a deep voice, Baron Stuart, you should be focusing on recovering now, not urgently seeking that little girl as soon as you wake up!
Vivian Ferguson was somewhat angry about this.
She knew very well how much agony her heart was in when he was hospitalized after being injured. She was constantly worried and scared that he might not wake up.
Now that he was finally awake, instead of worrying about his own body, he wanted to find that vain girl. How could she not be angry!
Baron Stuart closed his eyes lightly, trying to calm down the restlessness in his heart, and ignored Vivian Fergusons words.
In a little while, the doctor came in to give him a routine check-up.
Just as the doctor was about to leave the room after checking himst night,
Baron Stuart, who had his eyes closed, spoke faintly, Wait.
He opened his eyes, his expression calm, and turned to look at the doctor who had turned back upon hearing his voice.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Did you give me a blood transfusion? After a few seconds of silence, Baron
Stuart spoke up, his voice devoid of any warmth.
It was as if they had annoyed him by giving him a blood transfusion.
Upon hearing this, the doctor paused, looking at his cold face, somewhat puzzled for a moment but still nodded, Yes, you were in critical condition at that time due to excessive blood loss.
Wasnt their blood transfusion supposed to be right? Why did Mr. Stuart seem so dissatisfied?
The doctor couldnt help but secretly grumble.
Who donated it. Baron Stuart spoke again.
The reason he asked was that he wanted to make sure whether it was really Cam Walkers blood flowing in his body, and also, he suspected that this might have been arranged by his mother, Vivian Ferguson, in order to get closer to Cam Walker..

On the side, Vivian Ferguson naturally felt dissatisfied with her sons suspicion when she heard this, and said to Baron Stuart, Baron Stuart, do you not believe what Mother said?
Baron Stuart remained indifferent and did not respond to Vivian Fergusons words, but he lifted his pupils and looked at the doctor by the door.
Feeling his intense gaze, the doctor paused for a moment and then spoke, It was ady.
Upon hearing this, Baron Stuarts heart sank, and his displeasure grew stronger.
Of course, it was possible that his mother had arranged everything with the doctor, but he could not detect any guilty expression on the doctors face.
He should not have lied.
Baron Stuart, I dont care what kind of rtionship that girl has with you, but I want to make it very clear to you that Emily Walker has note to see you even once since you passed out! Vivian Ferguson said, discontentedly.
At this point, she absolutely wont allow her son to have any more contact with that woman!
Baron Stuart was already upset that Emily wasnt there when he woke up, and his mood worsened more after Vivian Fergusons words.
Leaning back, Baron Stuart closed his eyes, looking very tired, and then softly said, Everyone, leave.
Seeing her son on the hospital bed, Vivian Ferguson felt helpless, but had no solutions.
She had no choice but to leave with Cam Walker and Be Stuart.
You rest well, Ille back to see you in the afternoon, she said worriedly, looking at her son on the hospital bed, before preparing to leave.
Just as the three of them reached the door of the hospital room, Baron Stuart suddenly spoke, Be, stay.
Hearing these words, the three of them were taken aback, especially Be Stuart, who felt like she had been shocked, her body trembling, and she secretly swallowed her saliva.
Whats the situation? They were all leaving, why did he ask her to stay?
Could it be that her elder brother had discovered something and was preparing to interrogate her?
Be Stuart raised her eyes pleadingly, looking at her mother with a helpless expression.
Vivian Ferguson looked at her daughter and gave her a signal not to reveal anything.
yton Howard had already gone to find Emily Walker, and she didnt know if she had left Baron Stuarts residence yet
After Vivian Ferguson and Cam Walker left, Be Stuart cautiously returned to the bedside and sat down.
Nowadays, only she was left with her brother, whom she had known for 18 years, but their rtionship suddenly felt strange and unnatural.
Heh heh Brother, are you thirsty? Ill pour you some water! After saying that, Be Stuart immediately got up and went to the table to pour a ss of boiled water for Baron Stuart.
After pouring the water, the atmosphere grew even more awkward.
Be Stuart sat on the side, feeling extremely ufortable, cursing in her heart: Brother, just ask whatever you want to ask and stop tormenting me like this, its so unbearable and terrifying!
Help me, help me Leonardo Bryson!
Did Cam give me a blood transfusion? The atmosphere was eerily quiet when Baron Stuart finally spoke up from the hospital bed.
He turned his head, looking at his sister with a calm expression, but between his brows, there was still a hint of displeasure.
Upon hearing this, Be Stuarts whole body shuddered, and she instinctively trembled, lifting her eyes to sneak a nce at her brother.
And then she pretended to be calm and said, Uh yeah, she did!
Because she didnt dare to look directly at her elder brother, Be Stuarts eyes were constantly wandering and evading, just not daring to look him in the eye. Baron Stuart didnt say anything, his sharp gaze staring straight at her..

The room fell silent again. Be Stuart felt something was wrong and she cautiously lifted her eyes to nce at Baron Stuart
As she nced, she directly met his sharp gaze, which startled her entire body and she immediately lowered her head in consternation. In a small voice, she said, Actually the blood transfusion was from Emily WalkerN?v(el)B\\jnn
Upon hearing this, Baron Stuarts pupils tightened, slightly surprised at this oue.
He had only suspected that the blood wasnt from Cam Walker, but he didnt expect it to be from that woman.
The doctor said Emily Walker is anemic, shes not supposed to give a blood transfusion. But, she insisted on giving 300ml to you Be continued.
Actually, she also felt that this matter should not be concealed from her brother. After all, Emily Walker risked her life giving a blood transfusion to her brother, and in the end, it was credited as Cams merit. Now that the truth was out, she felt relieved.
She was sure God wouldnt punish her now!
You have no idea, Be said excitedly, looking up at Baron Stuart. After
Emily gave you the blood transfusion, her face turned pale, it was frightening.
She was supposed to stay for observation, but for some reason, she left
As she said this, Be lowered her face, lost in puzzlement.
Pondering over Emilys current situation, wondering whether herplexion had recovered or how long it might take for her to be able to restore the 300ml of lost blood.
Upon hearing this, Baron Stuarts agitation ceased, reced with worry.
However, he kept his worry hidden and did not reveal it.
Seeing her brother fall silent, Be Stuart was confused and gawked at him.
At this moment, the door to the hospital room opened and yton Howard walked in. Seeing that Vivian Ferguson and Cam Walker were not there, he felt relieved.
What he was about to say might provoke the Young Lords wrath.
Young Lord.
Noting his return, Baron Stuart looked up, waiting for him to speak.
After a pause, yton finally began, Lady Carter has disappeared.
Barons eyes narrowed, and he asked coldly, What do you mean by she has disappeared?
yton lightly pressed his thin lips, dropped his eyelids, We cant find her at your vi, even her luggage is missing. ording to Mrs. Noelle, Lady Carter has left.
I checked thepany afterward but received news that Lady Carter resigned this morning from Director Scott.
This left yton puzzled. The Young Lord had an ident yesterday, but Emily was nowhere to be found, and then she suddenly disappeared now. What could have happened in the meantime?
Hearing this, Baron Stuarts hand tightened on the white bedding.
Such a woman, he assumed she had taken his warning seriously but unexpectedly, she sneaked away while he was unconscious!
Fine, very well!
If she dared to escape, then she better make sure he doesnt find her!
Fuming, Baron Stuart sternly ordered, Go find her, regardless of the methods, you must bring that woman back to me!
Once he found her, he would surely teach her a lesson and show her what it meant to be obedient!
Yes, Ill do it right away! epting the order, yton Howard was about to leave the hospital room.
Wait. Baron looked like he suddenly remembered something. His deep eyes narrowed slightly, and his thin lips moved, Go check on her little brother. Considering her temperament, she wouldnt possibly leave her brother behind and run off alone..

Did this woman overestimate herself, or did she underestimate him? It would be no problem to locate her, even if she fled E City and went overseas.
yton Howard understood immediately upon hearing this and promptly left, Yes.
At this moment, on the floor across from where Baron Stuart was staying.
Emily Walker had just finished the discharge procedures with her little brother.
Do you feel tired? Although Wace Carter had recovered well, Emily was still worried about him leaving the hospital. As they walked towards the elevator, she asked anxiously.
Wace smiled calmly and looked at his sister, Sister, Im not as fragile as you think. A week ago, I started walking alone to the hospital garden.
After another week of recuperation, he was practically just like any other normal person.
The siblings reached the elevator entrance, and as there were many people, they had to wait for the elevator that wasing up from the first floor.
As the elevator reached the 12th floor, the door opened, and 13 people immediately poured out, pushing Emily and Wace to the side as they waited for the elevator.
yton Howard, who had just emerged from the elevator, seemingly did not notice the siblings either, as he headed straight for Waces hospital room after exiting.
Seeing this familiar figure, Emily suddenly paused. What was he doing here?
As she watched the direction in which yton was going, could it be that he was looking for her little brother!?
Realizing this, Emily quickly pulled herself together, grabbing Wace and heading into the elevator.
If yton Howard was truly here for her brother, then it must mean that that man had already woken up and realized that she had left!
Emily hurriedly pushed Wace into the elevator, and swiftly pressed the button for the first floor!
After leaving the inpatient department and arriving at the guard station, Emily took out the luggage box she had stored there earlier. Worried about being found by yton, she didnt dare to dy and ran towards the hospital entrance.
Seeing his sister holding a luggage box, Wace was puzzled.
Could it be that, in the past few months, his sister had not found a ce to stay?
Emily was walking too hastily,pletely failing to notice another man who was about to leave the hospital at that very moment and they identally collided head-on.
Ahhiss Emilys forehead collided directly with the mans sturdy chest, causing her to frown in pain as if shed run into a wall.
A woman suddenly crashed into his arms, and Adrian Nash didnt notice for a moment. He quickly extended his arms to help the person who had almost fallen in his embrace.
Sister, are you alright? Wace hurried over and reimed his sister from the mans arms!
Wace was very puzzled by his sisters haste and couldnt understand what had suddenlye over her.
Only then did Adrian notice the woman who had bumped into him, and his face lit up with excitement, as well as surprise, Emily?n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Hearing the familiar voice, Emily paused for a moment and then looked up at the man shed collided with.
Boss Despite having met several times, Emily still habitually called Adrian Boss and was very surprised to bump into him here.
Adrian chuckled helplessly. When could he finally be true friends with her?
Should I call you Lady Carter? He looked at her and asked with a smile.
Emily hesitated for a moment, then embarrassedlyughed when she understood his meaning, No need, just use my name.
Thats what Ive been wishing for. Adrians lips curved as he noticed her luggage. Where are you going?
Dears, Mia Harizon will return to Baltimore tomorrow. I will be home at night, so the update might be dyed..

Thest time they met, he seemed to realize that the little girl had some connection with Baron Stuart of the Futuren Group. Each and every time, she seemed to be rather embarrassed. Out of the three times theyve met, she had her luggage with her twice.
Emily Walker noticed him looking at her suitcase, and also at this very moment, she noticed that someone was looking tor her in the background.
I, I am here to pick up my little brother. We can chat next time. As soon as she finished speaking, she impatiently grabbed Wace Carters hand and rushed out of the hospitals grand entrance.
Seeing this, Adrian Nash immediately chased after her, grabbing her arm, asking, Where are you going? Let me take you there!
He was aware of the enchanting peach blossom, which surprised many passersby at the hospital entrance.
Emily Walker then looked at the hand on her arm and then looked back in the direction of the hospital. If it was convenient, why not take a ride?
Thank you then.
The three of them got into the white Porsche and disappeared from the hospital entrance in the blink of an eye.
yton Howard, who found out that Emily Walker and her brother had just finished their discharge surgery, also came chasing out, but didnt see the siblings anywhere.
In the Porsche, Emily Walker kept looking back from time to time, always worried that someone was following them from behind.
However, when the car had already driven a considerable distance away from the hospital, she realized that her worries seemed a bit unnecessary.
Perhaps, yton Howard was not looking for her, it was just a coincidence that she saw him.
No matter what, her departure might not matter to Baron Stuart. It would be better to leave, for both of them.
She would no longer be med for leading people on, and Baron Stuart could continue his marriage as well.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Looking at the retreating city outside the car window, Emily Walker gradually fell into deep thought.
Wace Carter, who was sitting next to her, seemed to have noticed her abnormality early on and slowly said, Sis, whats really going on?
She also looked hurried when they were leaving the hospital earlier, and now she kept ncing behind her, as if someone was pursuing her.
Its nothing. Emily Walker didnt borate much, but leaned back on the seat, looking a bit tired from the deep thought.
She had been slightly weak since she donated blood the day before, and now it seemed particrly draining to think.
Adrian Nash, in the drivers seat, saw her tired look through the rearview mirror, and a strange feeling shed in his heart.
The car pulled away at the crossroads, and waiting for the traffic lights, Adrian
Nash couldnt help but ask, You havent told me where youre heading yet?
He turned his head, a devilish smile hanging on his lips, looking at her in the back seat.
Upon hearing this, Emily Walker was pulled back from her thoughts, sitting upright to look at the devilishly charming man in the drivers seat.
For a moment, it was indeed quite a tough question for her.
I She hesitated for a moment, actually, she didnt know where to go.
She gave a self-deprecating smile, it seemed as if her life never had a destination?
Wace Carter looked at his sister, he had no idea how she held up on her own while he was hospitalized.
The high medical and hospital fees, as a twenty-year-old girl, how did his sister manage that?
At this thought, Wace remembered the man who came to the hospital with his sister beforeBaron Stuart.
He is the sole heir of the Futuren Group, with a valuable worth, from any angle, this man is the worlds finest, wless in every way..

How did Older Sister get to know him in the first ce? And now, with her luggage box, could it be?
Wace nced at his sister without letting too much show on his face.
No matter what she had done initially, in the end, it was all for him.
Are you guys looking for a ce to stay? Seeing Emily hesitate to speak, Adrian Nash spoke up again, with a smile still hanging on the corner of his mouth, as if to untie her tongue-tied predicament.
Upon hearing his voice, Emily paused for a moment, then recovered and hesitated before nodding, Uh
Instead of saying theres nowhere to go, saying they are looking for a ce would at least be less embarrassing.
As Emily finished speaking, the green light came on. Adrian Nash slightly curved his thin lips, turning the steering wheel, and the Porsche swiftly drove in another direction.
I happen to know a friend who has a house for rent. Why dont I take you to have a look?
About 20 minutester, the white Porsche stopped in front of a residentialmunity.
Emily and Wace got out of the car and looked around. Rows of small Western-style vis were spectacrly impressive. Though they couldnt be called luxurious, they were quite exquisite.
Especially the surrounding green scenery, it was really soothing to the eyes.
Looking at such a house, Emily looked puzzled and turned her head to nce at Adrian puzzledly.
Adrian seemed to guess her confusion, his thin lips slightly curled, raising a perfect arch, How about the houses here?
He had a house inside, but it wasnt exactly his; it was left to him by his deceased mother and had been vacant ever since.
Emily became even more puzzled by his words.
Could the friend he was talking about be this ce? But with her and Waces current financial situation, they couldnt afford to rent such a house.
Then, Adrian took a keyring out of his pocket, waved it in front of Emily, and smiled, Are you satisfied?
Looking at the dangling keys in front of her, Emilys eyebrows furrowed in surprise, and she asked incredulously, What is this?
Adrian smiled lightly and turned his face towards the Western-style vi, looking somewhat lonely, This house has been empty for many years. So? Empty with no one living in it? Asking her to live here?
Emily lowered her eyelids. She indeed has no ce to go for now, but she wasnt at the point of asking for help.
Boss Emily almost blurted out the title boss but quickly caught herself and paused before correcting, Thank you for your kindness, but my brother and I will still look for a ce.
Having said that, Emily wanted to turn around and leave.
Seeing this, Adrian immediately turned around and grabbed her arm, Hey, Emily, I just want to be friends with you; even if you dont like it here, you dont have to be so direct, its so embarrassing for me.
He looked at Emily helplessly, the smile on the corner of his mouth at this moment somewhat strained. Her sudden, straightforward rejection really made him feel awkward.
It was as if he was being oversensitive.
But he did seem a little oversensitive!
Upon hearing him say that, Emily immediately realized that her words were indeed too blunt, and she quickly turned around, looking slightly apologetic.
Im sorry, I just thought
I know, its probably hard for you to ept my sudden offer, but I really just want to Adrian paused, seemingly struggling to exin his feelings at the moment, I want tosimply help a friend, thats all. Seriously, nothing more..

He spoke with a sincere expression, as if he was afraid she would misunderstand him.
And his sudden sincerity made Emily feel a bit at a loss, as if she had really hurt the self-esteem of this man?
After a pause, Emily slowly began, Regardless, Im still very grateful to you, but She nced at the Western-style vi in front of her, then turned her gaze to Adrian Nash, My brother and I cant afford to live here for now.
Thats not a problem. Adrian hurriedly said, if what she was worried about was this, then it wasnt a problem at all. He pressed his lips together, as if pondering something, then looked up at her, If you dont have the rent now, you can pay it when you have the moneyter!
Upon hearing this, Emily naturally understood the meaning behind it.
This exquisite house, and its a full set, even if it doesnt cost ten thousand, it should be at least seven or eight thousand. He said he would payter?
Although she hadnt read many books, she could clearly grasp the way people deal with things. Him saying this undoubtedly meant that he wanted her to move into this house.
Yes, thats right, maybe he just wanted to help her, but this favor was too great, she couldnt ept it.
She didnt want to pretend to be aloof and saintly, but she just didnt want to be tied to someone like this. After all, she and he were only acquainted through a few encounters, and they hadnt known each other for long enough.
I really appreciate it, but its not necessary. Emily said, her expression somewhat cold and it was evident that she was in a bad mood, Wace, lets go.
She might be able to ept the favors of a friend like Gabrie Teddy, but she didnt want to ept anything from the man in front of her.
It wasnt because she thought he was a bad person, but
Having experienced such a wealthy nobleman once, she had barely escaped the notoriety. How could she easily fall into it again?
Once she epted, perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, she would not only ept his temporary help, but there might be another kind of rumor.
Baron Stuart was a well-known man worldwide, and the man in front of her was also an influential figure. She didnt want to be involved with either of them.
Dont be like this. Seeing her determination to leave, Adrian felt helpless for the first time, and in fact, he didnt want her to leave either.
Because, it seemed that she had nowhere else to go. It was already 3:30 PM, and finding a house wasnt something that could be done quickly. If she didnt find one, she couldnt sleep on the street, could she?
He grabbed her again, I know you dont want to owe anyone, butat least you need a temporary ce to stay, right? Its not easy to find a house, what if vou dont find a suitable one tonight?
Even though there are hotels on the street, but she wouldnt be able to afford the cost of one night there.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Upon hearing this, Emily seemed to have also thought of this problem.
If she didnt find a house, where would she and her brother sleep?
Can you just stay here for one night? You can put your stuff in and look for a house anytime, and youll have a ce to stay, right? Seeing her silence, Adrian continued speaking.
He wasnt sure about his own thoughts, as if he cared too much about her?
Emily raised her head, and in fact, he was right. No matter what, she needed to have a ce to stay, which would also make it easier to find a house.
Moreover, her brother had been discharged from the hospital earlier, and she didnt know how well his body had recovered. It was better to be careful. ThenIll, Ill give you the rent for one day first. After saying this, Emily reached for the money in her pocket..

Adrian Nash quickly held her hand that was taking out money andughed. I realized that being your friend is really difficult.
Its just for one night, and if you really dont want to receive undeserved gains, then Adrian Nash turned his head, pointing at the house, No one has lived here for several years. If you truly want to pay rent, help me clean up the first floor. Consider it as offsetting the rent, alright?
Several hundred USD was nothing but the price of a cup of liquor to him. What did he need it for?
Emily Walker looked up at him, then lowered her eyes in thought.
It seemed that he was right. No matter what, she needed a ce to stay tonight.
Then thank you.
Seeing her finally agree, Adrian Nash couldnt help but let out a long sigh of relief. It seemed that bing friends with her was not easy at all.
Lets go.
They entered the courtyard and opened the grand entrance to the living room.
The furniture inside was covered with white cloths, and due to no one living there for a long time, the ce was now dusty and neglected!
The dust-covered furniture was like Adrian Nashs childhood memories, sealed under dust. As time passed, now when looking at it, it didnt seem as fresh in memory as it had been initially.
Sorry, its just that no one has cleaned it in a really long time. Seeing the thickyers of dust everywhere, Adrian Nash hurriedly lifted the white cloth from the sofa. But since he had never done this before, when he lifted it, the dust fell back onto the sofa, making things awkward in an instant.
Now there was nowhere left for her and her little brother to sit.
Looking at his awkward movements and expression, Emily Walker didnt care and chuckled softly. You all stand for a while, Ill go clean.
After saying that, Emily Walker looked around and found cleaning tools and an apron in a room.
Fortunately, the water and electricity in the house hadnt been cut off, making the cleaning not so troublesome.
Wace Carter, who was nearby, saw his older sister cleaning by herself and couldnt help but join in. He picked up a cloth, carried a water bucket, and started wiping the floor!
After spending a few months in the hospital, he needed to exercise his muscles or else they would be stiff!
Seeing the siblings working so happily, Adrian Nash experienced such a scene for the first time. He never thought that doing housework could be so enjoyable!
With an itch in his heart, Adrian Nash suddenly wanted to try it as well. He took a mop from the side and began wiping the floor after Emily Walker.
So, like that, the three of them worked together C one used a vacuum cleaner in front, another followed behind mopping the floor, and thest one wiped the floor clean with a wet towel.
After two hours of hard work, the living room and bedrooms were finally restored to their original appearances, shining anew!
Were finally done! It was Wace Carters first time doing housework, and he was so tired that he copsed on the sofa, huffing and puffing.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
It was also Adrian Nashs first time, but he didnt feel tired. Instead, he thought it was pretty interesting.
Both meny on the sofa, while Emily Walker went to check the two rooms on the first floor. Presumably, these rooms had once been used by servants, as there was clutter piled up in the corners of the walls.
Having tidied up the two rooms once again, which she and her little brother were going to stay in tonight, she came out to the living room half an hourter.
When she came out, she found that Adrian Nash was gone, but her little brother was curled up on the sofa, watching TV..

Wace, where is he? Seeing that he was not there, Emily Walker couldnt help but feel puzzled.
Upon hearing her voice, Wace turned his head to look at his sister who just came out of the room, Brother Jackie? He said hes going out for a bit. Brother Jackie?
Emily looked baffled, when did her little brother start calling him brother?
Wace, youre too rash, why are you calling him Brother Jackie when you just met? Emily obviously felt dissatisfied about this matter. After all, she couldnt even call him by his name yet, whereas her little brother was already calling him brother.
Wace, however, didnt think much of it and exined, I didnt, at first I was calling him Mr. Nash, but he told me its fine to call him by his name, saying that he is ten years older than me, so I can call him brother if I want. If I called him by his name, wouldnt that seem even more impolite?
By the end, Wace leaned on the back of the sofa, looking earnestly at Emily, seemingly full of curiosity about this question.
But then again, it seemed that Adrian Nash was quite concerned about his sister, wasnt he?
Upon hearing this, Emily paused and thought that it was just a way of addressing each other. It doesnt matter that much.
Having cleaned all afternoon, Emily was a bit tired, so she decided to take a seat in the sofa and rest for a while.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Meanwhile, Adrian Nash, who had just left, was at his Sea Sky Hotel, having the waiter prepare three dinners for him.
Just as the waiter packed the meals into a paper bag, and he carried it out, he saw a familiar figure at the reception desk.
He stopped in his tracks, nced at the reception desk not far away, and narrowed his eyes.
Wasnt that yton Howard, who was always with Baron Stuart? What was he doing here?
yton quickly inquired at the front desk about the registration records and made sure that Emily and her brother had indeed not checked into the hotel before turning to leave.
Ordinary hotel reception desks are not supposed to disclose guest information, but Baron Stuart had that privilege.
After leaving the hotel, yton suddenly felt that perhaps his Young Master
was being overly suspicious. Maybe Emily was not really with Adrian Nash.
Just a few hours ago, upon learning that Emily and her brother had left the hospital, Baron Stuart immediately checked the hospital surveince video and found that she had met Adrian Nash as soon as she came out.
This left Baron Stuart seething with anger, but nowhere to vent it!
That damned woman! She had gone to great lengths to evade him, only to get into another mans car right after leaving the hospital. How infuriating!
Every time he thought of thest time the two had rented a room at the Sea Sky Hotel, Baron Stuart became even more agitated, wishing he could capture that woman and punish her properly!
Noticing yton leaving the hotel, Adrian Nash slightly narrowed his eyes, then turned to the reception desk and approached it.
What was that man doing? With a charming smile hanging on his lips, Adrian Nash asked, looking at the two beautifuldies at the front desk.
Upon hearing his voice, both receptionists involuntarily looked up. Seeing their boss before them, they were somewhat surprised and stood up hurriedly.
They both then turned to look at the hotel entrance, where yton had just left.
That gentleman was asking about a person named Emily Walker to see if she had checked into our hotel, Receptionist A replied.
Once again, he nced at the entrance where yton had already driven away by now.
Adrian Nashs calm face seemed to have guessed something.
He remembered thest time when Baron Stuart personally took Emily away, their rtionship back then seemed to be quite unusual. This time. could it be that

At six oclock in the evening, Adrian Nash returned to the small manor.
Perhaps he was tired, as he saw his siblings leaning on the sofa taking a nap as soon as he entered the living room.
He quietly walked towards the single sofa, watching Emily Walker who was already fast asleep. Her features were not exactly refined, but they were refreshing and attractive. Her thick eyshes slightly curled up, resting on her fair cheeks, giving her an appealing fresh look.
Her tightly closed eyes seemed to sense a shadow moving in front of her. Emily
fluttered her eyelids slightly and then opened her eyes, greeted by the sight ot an attractive face close to hers. She was startled and quickly sat up on the sofa.
Bending over, Adrian Nash didnt expect her to suddenly open her eyes. His expression was somewhat awkward.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
For a moment just now, he seemed to be captivated by her sleeping face and was slightly entranced.
Emily straightened up, feeling somewhat ufortable under his steady gaze. Furthermore, she didnt understand why he was staring at her so intently.
She didnt know if it was her imagination, but they were so close just now that she had the impression this man was trying to kiss her
It seemed like she needed to move out as soon as possible.
Whenwhen did you get home? Both of them looked slightly embarrassed. Emily lowered her eyelids and asked unnaturally.
Adrian Nash too,posed his unusual thoughts, with a simple, rxed and charming smile, he easily dispelled the awkwardness.
I just arrived home. There might be some dust on your face from cleaning earlier. After saying that, Adrian Nash unscrupulously reached out, his thumb naturally brushing against Emilys cheeks as if wiping away the dust that didnt even exist.
The unexpected touch left Emily startled once again.
She quicklyposed herself. No wonder he was looking at her so closely just now; it was because she had dust on her face. It looked like she was overthinking.
However was there really dust on her face? She remembered washing her face after cleaning.
Emily lowered her eyelids again, her eyebrows furrowing as she wondered if there really was dust on her face.
Alright, I bought dinner home. Adrian Nash lifted the dinner he had bought in his hand, gave Emily a warm smile and then turned to wake Wace Carter who was still sleeping on the sofa, Wace, its time for dinner.
Seeing the two addressing each other so familiarly, Emily was puzzled.
It seemed like they had a good rtionship? They even called each other by their first names, as if they had known each other for a long time.
The three of them sat down at the dining table for dinner. As Adrian Nash watched this scene unfold, his smile deepened. For more than ten years, it seemed like he had always eaten alone.
Of course, besides those so-called girlfriends, he mostly ate alone at home.
The sight before him made him feel strangely nice.
But just as Adrian Nash was smirking and enjoying this unusual feeling, the next second Emily did something that shattered this peace entirely!
This is for the meal. Emily took out a bill from her pocket at some point and ced it in front of him.
Looking at the note in front of him, Adrian Nash paused with his chopsticks halfway to his mouth, then looked up at the woman before him.
Did this woman have to settle every single expense with him, including those for Charlotte Taylor? She truly was a buzzkill.
He sighed, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and looked at her helplessly with his enchanting peach blossom eyes. He said with a lighthearted smile, Its just dinner.. Cant you stop being so calctive?
Chapter 155 - 155: 155: Looking for Work

Trantor: 549690339
It was just a dinner. He didnt know how many women he had paid the bill for, but the one in front of him didnt even give him the chance to be a gentleman. She was truly unique.
Many women would have longed for the chance to have dinner with him, but this woman just killed the thing hed always been proud of.
Emily waspletely unmoved and calmly handed the money to him.
After all, they werent that familiar with each other, especially when it came to money. It was better to keep things clear.
Dont you remember? Adrian Nash sighed helplessly, he really couldnt bring himself to take money from a woman.
Emily raised her pupils, somewhat confused by his question. Remember what?
Our first meeting at the park where you helped me, do you remember? That time, he had been chased by bodyguards hired by his father, and if it hadnt been for Emily, he might not have been able to avoid them so easily.
Emily frowned as she lowered her eyelids and began to recall
At that park, it was true that he seemed to be chased by someone. But why bring it up now?
She raised her head and looked at him quizzically. I remember; what about it?
Adrian Nash smiled, Thanks to you that time, I was able to escape. So let me treat you to this meal, okay?
Watching the conversation between the two, Wace also raised his head. He hadnt expected his older sister to have saved Adrian Nash. Had they known each other for a long time?
From his attitude towards Emily, it seemed that he truly cared for her and even seemed to be trying to please her.
Even though their family was now in dire circumstances, if Adrian Nash didnt mind, he might be a very good match for Emily!
Under Adrian Nashs insistence, Emily put away the money and continued eating her dinner.
It was past 8 PM when they were done with dinner, and it was time for Adrian Nash to go home.
Before leaving, he took down the tabletputer from the car and handed it to Emily and Wace, telling them that they could look at houses online that night and maybe find one they liked.
However, Emily and Wace searched all night but couldnt find a suitable ce C they were either too expensive, too remote, or mainly due to the high house prices average people just couldnt afford them.
Having no other choice, they decided to give up looking online and personally visit some older residential areas the next day.
Sometimes, older people stayed home while other family members went out to work. If those older persons had spare rooms, they might rent them out for some extra ie.
People in such situations were generally not well-off. Some of those old people didnt use the inte, so they had to post rental information on advertisement billboards outside the residential area or near their homes.
Early the next morning, the siblings left their house. Emily went house hunting and Wace went to find a job, so if they found a slightly expensive house, they could at least support themselves a bit better.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Wace, you havent fully recovered yet. Do you want to wait a little while before looking for a job? Emily was still worried about her brothers health as they got off the bus.
Wace simply waved her off with a smile, assuring her not to worry. Sister, my body has been fine for a while now. Hospitals just hope you stay longer so they can make more money.
Thats what he thought, because he knew his own body better than anyone.
Right now, the most important thing was to find a job to ease some of the financial pressure for his older sister..

Trantor: 549690339
After searching all morning, the siblings still couldnt find a house. They finally found a satisfactory one, but they had to give it up because they didnt have enough money for the deposit.
Now, Emily Walker had only a little over two thousand dors on her. Where could thev find a house that was both cheaD and not too remote?n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Even if they found one, once they paid the rent, they would have no money left for living expenses for her and her little brother.
Sis, why dont we go find work first? Maybe we could even find a job that includes room and board. Despite the scorching sun, Wace Carter didnt feel tired at all. Instead, he tried to lift his sisters spirits.
However, such jobs that include room and board were scarce in the flourishing city. With house prices so high, which boss would be willing to do that? Business people were notoriously stingy, who would buy a house for their employees to live in?
Of course, there were some in suburban factories Maybe
Emily suddenly had an idea. What if she and her brother moved to one of those remote development zones? News on TV often reported about them. The working hours were longer, but the sry was not low, and there were collective dormitories avable for living.
Thinking about this, Emily turned her head and looked at her brother Wace, Wace, would you liketo go check out a factory?
Wace was taken aback, not expecting his sister to lower their standards like this.
Although their family, the Carter Family, was not considered as aristocratic, the servants back home would at least call her Lady and he was a bona fide rich second generation in the campus.
Now, were they really going to fall to working in a factory?
But there was nothing wrong with that, as long as they could earn money, anywhere would do!
Okay! Wace agreed immediately. As long as his sister could live a better life, he would do anything.
Then, the two went to a Labour Services Office where there was plenty of factory information from the suburbs.
They saw an advertisement for a factory, saying: Work 15 hours a day, basic sry ranging from 3,000 to 6,000, the more you work, the more you earn, room and board included.
Seeing this information made Emily hesitate for a moment. The sry might be higher than her job at the Milk Tea Shop. But it meant working 15 hours a day, from 8 AM till 11 PM.
Though the hours were long, having room and board was not bad either.
She turned and looked at her brother, Wace, should we go to this one? Wace checked the ckboard and nodded, Okay.
15 hours a day was not a big deal; he was mainly worried about whether his sister could handle it physically.
After all, they had both been raised in rtivefort and had not experienced much hardship in their lives.
Having made this decision, the siblings returned to Adrian Nashs small manor.
It was already noon, so the two simply cooked two instant noodles as their lunch for the day.
Boys usually have a bigger appetite, so Emily gave half of hers to Wace.
Life might be a bit tough, but every time she thought of her brother who had been lying in a hospital bed, now able to sit beside her and eat, all of Emilys bitterness vanished.
In this world, at least she was not alone; at least she still had her brother
Wace.
After they had lunch, Adrian Nash came to visit.
It was perfect timing because Emily wanted to return the key to the small manor to him.
Looking at the key, Adrian hesitated for a moment and then looked up, Have you found a house?
Emily smiled and shook her head, No, my brother and I decided to work in a suburban factory. They provide room and board so we wont need to find a house..

Although life might be a bit difficult and tiring, as long as they can get by, its not a big deal. The most important thing is
Once she goes to the suburbs, she wouldnt have any connection with that man
anymore.
Now, she wonders how hes doing and if he would look for her?
When her thoughts drifted to that point, Emily suddenly snapped back to reality. What was she thinking about?
Work in a factory!? Adrian Nash looked shocked at her words. Factory work is the most tiring, how could her weak body handle it?
Emily, I dont want to scare you, but do you know how hard factory work is? Its not as simple as you think. Many unscrupulous factories make employees work all night long. Are you sure you want to work in a ce like that?
Although Adrian never went to such a ce, as a businessman, he knew a little about those factories.
Seeing his somewhat agitated reaction, Emily was stunned.
She then said, I know, but that doesnt matter to me.
She believed she could handle it.
Is it just that youck work and a ce to live? When youre struggling, let me help you, okay? For some reason, when Adrian thought about her suffering in those remote suburbs, he felt an inexplicable urge of anxiety.
Once she goes to that kind of ce, would their connection also lessen?
Befuddled by his sudden fit of impatience, Emily looked at him.
Whats wrong with this man all of a sudden?
Adrian turned to Wace, Wace, a friend of mine is a photographer, and hes currently in need of an assistant. If youre willing, I can introduce you to him.
Upon hearing this, Wace nced at his sister somewhat unexpectedly.
Emily was also very surprised. Why was this man continuously helping them?
Emily, as you said, Wace just got discharged from the hospital. If he works more than ten hours a day or does night shifts, can his body handle it?
Seeing both siblings silent, Adrian continued.
Hearing this, Emily realized she only thought about finding a job,pletely neglecting her brothers health.
Im not doing this to please you. My friend really needs an assistant, and you two are looking for work, right? Why are you willing to go work in such a ce while rejecting my help? Or is it, Adrian paused for a moment, looking a bit dejected, you simply dont want to be friends with me?
Upon hearing this, Emily lifted her eyes and looked at him, exining, Of course not!
Hes already helped her so much; how could she not want to be friends with him?
However, friends being friends, she didnt want their rtionship to be built on unnecessary gossip.
Thest time she entered Futuren Group, it was because of Baron Stuart, and many people were specting about her identity behind her back.
Since its not the case, why dont you just ept my simple help as a friend? At this time, Adrians tone already carried a hint of pleading.
The truth is, this time he didnt deliberately help her. This morning, his friend Jasonined to him about how hard the job was and he identally discovered Jasons assistant had suddenly resigned, so they currently needed a new one.
Afterward, he thought of Emily and Wace needing a job too. So he came here to see if they wanted to go..n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om

But Although worried about her little brothers health, Emily Walker still found it difficult to decide, after all, whether Wace Carter could handle the job was still a problem.
She turned her head to look at Wace, and indeed, he couldnt afford to be too overworked in his current condition. Otherwise, any ident would make everything worse.
But, Brother Jackie, Wace opened his mouth and looked at him, saying silently, Ive never worked as an assistant before
He had never done anything before; he was just a high school student before his hospitalization.
Adrian Nash smiled at those words, Dont worry about that. The assistants work is all very simple. Just help my friend manage some of his things when hes in need.
Really? Wace was a little moved.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
If thats the case, why not let my sister go instead? If the work was so easy and simple, it would be better to let his sister do it.
Upon hearing this, Emily turned her head and looked at her little brother in astonishment.
Both of youe with me. Adrian Nash didnt want to dwell on this issue any longer. He grabbed their hands and led them out the door.
Half an hourter, a white Porsche stopped in front of an international bridal photographypany building.
Seeing the signboard of the bridal photographypany, Emily and Wace were both puzzled.
My friend is upstairs; Ill take you to meet him. Having said that, Adrian Nash again took their hands and led them into the building.
The elevator went straight to the third floor, and Emily and Wace followed Adrian Nash into aprehensive office.
Oh, what brings our great young master Adrian to my humble ce? A young man walked out of the office, with a handsome face and sunny demeanor.
Adrian Nash didnt have time to chat with him, getting straight to the point,
Dont you need an assistant?
Hearing this, Jason was taken aback, then noticed the man and woman behind him. Did Adrian bring him assistants?
Of course, he would wee having an assistant!
He almost died from overwork in the past few days!
Come on in, have a seat! Upon hearing there were assistants, Jason immediately pulled the three of them into the office, offering them tea and water.
The international bridal photographypany was not owned by Adrian Nash. He knew that if he asked Emily to work at his familyspany, she might not agree. But if she came here, it would be a different story.
Introducing the siblings to work here was just a matter of course. Even as a friend, its the most normal thing to do.
Jasons gaze began to focus on the man and woman sitting upright. He had justined about his hard work in the morning, and the next second, Adrian Nash brought two people to him. This was unusual, not his style.
In the past, even when he was on the verge of copsing from exhaustion, Adrian would never care about his life.
But now
Jason looked at Emily on the opposite side, a very ordinary girl, not Adrian Nashs type. So it was His eyes nced at Wace on the other side. Although he was 180 cm tall, judging from his face, he should still be a student, which probably had nothing to do with Adrian.
So, what exactly made Adrian change his usual ways, then?
Jason rubbed his chin and began to ponder carefully.
Hey! Seeing him lost in thought, Adrian Nash started to feel a bit annoyed. Was he intending to ignore the three of them or what?
Snapping back to reality, Jason hurriedly looked up at the three of them..

To take or not to take? Adrian Nash didnt want to waste words, he would take it or leave it!
However, if Jason dared not to take it, he would definitely die a miserable death!
Feeling the sharp gaze from Adrian Nash, Jason couldnt help swallowing his saliva. This was noting to ask for his opinion, but to force him to take someone, okay!
Take, of course take, its best if I get both of them. My makeup artist is also in need of an assistant. This was not false, his partner Antonio Bailey indeed needed an assistant, too.
Upon hearing this, Emily Walker was taken aback, she couldnt help but wonder if it was really such a coincidence?
Adrian Nash slightly hooked the corner of his mouth. He didnt expect this kid to be quite cooperative.
Meanwhile, on the other side, at the hospital.
Baron Stuart was emotionless, half-leaning against the hospital bed, waiting for yton Howard to report the results to him.
Young Lord, an hour ago, Young Master Nash took Miss Walker and her little brother into a bridal photographypany. Last night, when yton found out that Emily was staying in a small manor under Adrian Nashs name, he wanted to bring Emily to the hospital but was suddenly stopped by Adrian Nashs men.
It seemed like this was Adrian Nashs deliberate arrangement.
Hearing this, Baron Stuarts ck obsidian-like pupils were instantly filled with raging anger!
A bridal photographypany?
Whats she doing there? Baron Stuart tried to suppress his anger, his thin lips lightly opened, and his voice was extremely cold.
yton hesitated for a moment, furrowing his eyebrows as if pondering over something, then he said, Im sorry, Young Master, it seems like Young Master Nash knows were looking for Miss Emily. Every time I try to go in and investigate, Im always stopped by his people.
An hour ago, the same thing happened when he tried to enter the bridal photographypany, seemingly as if Young Master Nash didnt want them to get close to Miss Walker.
Hearing this, Baron Stuarts eyes narrowed slightly, Adrian Nash?
Yes, yton nodded.
Following that, Baron Stuart let out a sneer.
He wanted to see how Adrian Nash was going to steal his woman!
The next second, he saw Baron Stuart lift the white bedsheet and get up from the hospital bed.
Seeing him suddenly get out of bed, yton stared at him in astonishment, Young Lord?
His back injury had only been stitched up for two days, and it was far from healed. Getting out of bed now would likely tear the wound open.
But Baron Stuartpletely ignored him and directly changed out of his hospital gown, putting on his light blue shirt.
Fastening the buttons on his chest and cuffs, Baron Stuarts eyes grew cold. Lets pay Young Master Nash a visit.
With those words, Baron Stuart raised the corner of his mouth and strode towards the hospital room exit.
Watching him leave the hospital room, yton was worried.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The doctor repeatedly told him that it was best not to get out of bed and move around before the wound healed. Once torn, he might lose a lot of blood again.
But as for their Young Lords temper, not to mention him, even if Madam came herself, it would be difficult to stop him from doing what he wanted at this moment.
Despite his concern, yton still followed closely behind.
The car drove smoothly through the bustling city district. Ten-plus minutester, the ck Bentley stopped in front of the International Bridal Photography Building.
Baron Stuart sat in the back seat, looking out the car window towards the entrance of the building.
His sharp gaze observed every move at the entrance of the building. As long as the bodyguards dressed in ck silk were still there, it meant that the woman was also still inside.
Opening the car door, Baron Stuart got out of the car, exuding an intimidating aura. His eyes held a slight chill that made people reluctant to approach, giving others a sense of fear.

He took a light step forward, walking gracefully towards the front of the building.
Seeing the approaching pair, the few bodyguards waiting at the grand entrance immediately tensed up.
If yton Howard was at his side, they could stop him. But now, in front of them was Young Lord of Futuren Group, Baron Stuart.
Baron Stuart lifted his cold gaze, sweeping it across the ck uniformed bodyguard opposite him.
The moment the bodyguards eyes met his icy pupils, he stiffened, as if feeling a wave of coldness sweeping through his body, sending chills to his heart.
Young Lord StuartI The bodyguard spoke slowly, despite being afraid of Baron Stuarts suffocating aura, they dared not let him pass easily.
After all, they belonged to Adrian Nash, and if they were found negligent, they couldnt bear the punishment from the Young Master.
But the man in front of them was also not someone they could offend.
Baron Stuart kept silent, his cold, icy gaze fixed on the bodyguard in front of him.
In the end, the bodyguard was afraid of causing offense and took a step back.
Lifting his cold gaze, Baron Stuart strode towards the tower buildings reception desk, with yton Howard following closely behind.
This was a bridal photographypany, and as Baron Stuart headed for the elevator, he wondered what that woman was doing here with other men.
Suppressing his anger, Baron Stuart entered the elevator. Just as yton Howard was about to follow, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of another elevator door opening, and two men and a woman walked out of it.
Upon recognizing the faces of the three people who stepped out of the elevator, Howard hesitated for a moment, then turned his head towards Baron Stuart inside the elevator.
Young Lord Stuart, its Lady Carter.
As soon as Howard spoke, Emily Walker, Adrian Nash, and the three others immediately turned their heads at the sound. Upon seeing Howard, their expressions turned to surprise.
Wasnt that yton Howard who was always by that mans side? Why was he here?
The appearance of yton Howard surprised Emily, not knowing whether it was a coincidence or some other reason.
But the next second, when she saw the man walking out of the elevator, her entire expression turned nk, her pupils dting as she couldnt believe that the figure in front of her was that man.
He Wasnt he supposed to be hospitalized? Why would he appear here?N?v(el)B\\jnn
As for Baron Stuarts appearance, not only was Emily surprised, but so was Adrian Nash.
Originally, he had been wondering how Howard was able to enter here, but now he realized that Baron Stuart hade in person.
Baron Stuart walked out of the elevator, looking a bit frosty at the woman in front of him. It had only been a few days since hest saw her, and she seemed different, looking pale as if malnourished.
Thinking about this, Baron Stuarts ears echoed with Be Stuarts words.
Was this womans malnourished appearance the result of her giving all the blood in her body to him?
Baron Stuarts deep eyes stared intently at the woman opposite him, with everything else around him seemingly vanishing like nothing but air,pletely out of his sight.
Upon meeting his gaze, Emily didnt dodge but returned the look.
She hadnt seen him since thest time he was brought into the emergency room, and she didnt know if his wound had healed yet.
However, seeing his spirited condition now, still with that cold and unruly attitude, she supposed it shouldnt be a big problem anymore.
But his back was so deeply injured, and he had lost so much blood, could he really be discharged from the hospital in just a few days?
Of course, Emily didnt know that Baron Stuart hadnt recovered and had discharged himself from the hospital with injuries, and even Mia Harizon didnt know the true purpose of this!

Its quite a coincidence to meet Young Lord here. Noticing the two had been staring at each other for a long time, Adrian Nash finally spoke, breaking the silent atmosphere.
Most importantly, he seemed less and less inclined to have any connection between the woman by his side and Baron Stuart.
If Emily Walkers homelessness this time was due to Baron Stuart, then he would never let Emily go by his side again.
Upon hearing this, Baron Stuart raised his eyes and looked at Adrian Nash next to Emily Walker.
The two were very close, one tall and one short. In Baron Stuarts view, this scene was always an eyesore, making him want to destroy it!
He looked coldly at Adrian Nash, his handsome face revealing a touch of unapproachable coldness as his thin lips spoke, Young Master Nash is overthinking it; I came here only to retrieve something that belongs to me. After saying that, he nced at Emily Walker nearby.
Upon receiving her gaze and words, Emily was slightly stunned, not quite understanding what he meant by this.
Coming here to take back something that belongs to him?
Was she overthinking things? Or was he justing to this bridal photographypany to take back something? After all, he was already engaged to Cam Walker, which must be rted.
Oh? Adrian Nash raised a mocking smile upon hearing this and asked, What did Young Lord lose here?
Inside, he knew that the so-called thing Baron Stuart was referring to was none other than Emily Walker herself.
Adrian Nash nced at Emily Walker beside him; if she was willing, he would never let her return to Baron Stuarts side again.
Person. Baron Stuart spoke, uttering a single word while his eyes remained fixed on Emily.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
After saying that, he strode towards her.
From beginning to end, Baron Stuarts gaze had been on Emily, never moving away even when he approached her.
This damned woman, he wanted to ask her why she ran away, why she got so close to other men as soon as she left!
I should have warned you not to run away from me without permission. He looked at her, thin lips lightly opening, no visible emotions on his handsome face, which appeared gloomy.
His tone made Emily feel a slight sense of oppression; atter a few days of not seeing each other, this man seemed to have be somewhat unfamiliar. Was he angry at her for leaving without saying goodbye?
No, it shouldnt be; her leaving had no effect on him.
I dont understand what youre saying. Emily spoke calmly, her gaze bing somewhat indifferent as she looked at him.
But this indifference only made Baron Stuart more annoyed!
Now she looked at him as if he were a stranger, which made him extremely ufortable!
Dont understand? Baron Stuart narrowed his eyes, his voice cold as ice. This damned woman was now pretending to be dumb with him?
Fine, very well, he wanted to see how she continued to y dumb!
Have you forgotten? The cold face suddenly turned into a smirk. He looked at her, his handsome face slowly lowering, the sexy corner of his lips slightly hooked, enthralling.
Seeing his face slowly approaching, Emily inexplicably felt a little nervous. What on earth did this man want to do?
She subconsciously leaned back as if to avoid his approach and slowly asked, What do you mean?
What do I mean? Baron Stuart sneered, closing in on her, Are you sure you want me to say it out loud? In front of your little brother and others?

Chapter 162 - 162: 162: What Are You to Me?
Trantor: 549690339
His lips curled slightly, but Emily Walker could not discern a smile on his face, ratherhe appeared despicable!
What on earth was this damn man going to say in front of her little brother? About their rtionship? Or something else?
Thinking about what had happened between them, Emily started to feel uneasy. He wouldnt deliberately say something shameful here, would he? Emily bit her lower lip, clueless about what this man wanted, What on earth do you want?
What do I want? saying this, the smirk on Baron Stuarts face vanished and was reced by seething rage. He growled, Who gave you the permission to leave?
She was his. Only he could grant her permission to leave.
Seeing his sudden anger, Emily was taken aback.
Who let her go? Wasnt it his loving mother and sweet fiancee?
Emily would, of course, not reveal such hard to address issues to him. After all, in others eyes, she was the home-wrecking mistress forced out by his mother and fiancee. This would be an embarrassment for any woman.
Since she had decided to leave, she might as well keep some dignity for herself.
Why cant I leave? Emily lifted her face, her stubborn gaze fixed on him, retorting, I didnt sell myself to you. Why do I need your permission? What exactly are you to me?
Her sudden counter-question made Baron Stuart hesitate. He couldnte up with an answer to her points.
What was she to him? His woman?
However, being as domineering as he was, he didnt feel the need to answer things he didnt want to.
I said no, so its no! His tone was intimidating, his words forced out between his teeth.
This woman, her temper was just as stubborn after not seeing her for a few days!
Hearing this, Emily found itughable. She sarcastically replied, Im sorry, but your no has no legal effect.
Wrapping up the conversation, Emily no longer wished to argue with the man in front of her. She turned around, intending to head towards the front door.
Seeing her turn to leave, Baron Stuart exploded!
Emily Walker! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
His sudden rage froze Emily in her tracks. This mans anger was truly terrifying.
Possibly due to the anger, Baron Stuarts back bulged due to the force exerted, and a sharp pain shot from his wound.
He frowned slightly, didnt pay too much attention, instead, he lifted his furious gaze, staring at the woman in front of him.
Emily paused in her steps, then turned around. Today, perhaps she should rify everything she wanted to say. After this, she wouldnt want any more involvement with this man!
As she turned around, she noticed his slightly furrowed brows and beads of sweat on his forehead. She was slightly taken aback but didnt think much and attributed it to his rage.
Looking at him, she replied firm, Im grateful to you for providing the surgery fees to save my brother! Im also grateful to you Emily became thoughtful at this point, this was the first time, apart from her father, that another man had held her close.
Thinking back to the time of the ident a few days ago, this man had shielded her beneath him at that crucial moment. But why? She still didnt understand.
Thank you for protecting me that day! However, Ive also given you a blood transfusion in return, so we are now even! He had saved her life, and she had repaid him with her blood, werent they equal now?
Chapter 163 - 163: 163: You can ‘t repay what you owe me, not even in this lifetime
Chapter 163 - 163: 163: You can t repay what you owe me, not even in this lifetime
Trantor: 549690339
So were even? Huh, Baron Stuart scoffed.
You owe me so much that youll never be able to repay everything in this lifetime, Baron Stuart stared at her, his tone oppressive.
How could she easily repay all the things she owed him?
Hearing this, Emily Walker couldnt help but find his remark funny but also felt annoyed, So, tell me, what do I owe you?
Baron Stuart looked at her and then closed the distance, speaking unhurriedly, Rent, physical intimacy, and my first time. These are all debts you owe me.
Do you think youve paid them off?
He said it with a straight face, shocking everyone around him!
Especially Emily, upon hearing his words, her eyeballs nearly popped out; this man had absolutely no shame!
Talking about his first time? Why didnt he just say that he even gave her their first kiss!
Emily was so angry that she couldnt even speak. She nced at the others nearby and immediately grabbed Baron Stuarts arm, walking straight out the door!
The arm Emily grabbed happened to be the same side of Baron Stuarts back that was injured. Her sudden pull caused him some pain.
However, Baron Stuart didnt say anything, only slightly furrowing his brow.
She dragged the man behind her out of the photographypany and pulled him to a corner by the wall. At this moment, Emily didnt know where she got the strength, but she fiercely pushed the man in front of her against the wall, yelling angrily, What exactly do you want? What do I have to do for you to let me go?!
Emily roared, her small face flushed with anger. How could this man utter those words so shamelessly?
As she pushed him hard against the wall, Baron Stuarts injured scap area cracked open again from the collision. Suppressing the pain, his handsome eyebrows furrowed even more. Perspiration began to appear on his forehead as it seemed the force was stronger this time.
Noticing his furrowed eyebrows, Emily hesitated and looked puzzled.
Just as she was about to ask him what was wrong, the pain on his face suddenly disappeared, reced by a devilish smile.
Compared to the pain in his back, he was more interested in her angry look at this moment.
Werent you just telling me to say it? Youre so contradictory. One moment, you want me to speak, and the next, youre so angry. His tone was casual, yet it infuriated Emily to no end!
She was just worried about him, so could it be that his pain was all an act earlier?
What a shameless man! Could he be any more despicable?!
The more she was provoked, the more yful Baron Stuart became, And also, once youve repaid everything you owe me, Ill naturally let you go.
Hearing his words, Emily was about to explode with anger, clenching her hands by her sides.
Her chest rose and fell as her anger surged. ring at him, she yelled, What do I owe you?! As for the first time, shouldnt that be mine?!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Her cheeks were flushed with anger as she retorted.
At this moment, she couldnt care less about anything. Since he wanted to calcte, she would settle it well!
For men like him, she didnt believe it was his first time!
Hearing her words, Baron Stuarts smile deepened, Really? So it was your first time too. Thats quite a coincidence.
She wanted to punch someone.
But, she endured it.
Fine, since its the first time for both of us, lets consider it even. Is that okay? Emily calmed down. If it meant severing ties with him, she was willing to ept anything. Even if it was her first time, shed acknowledge it!
How can that do? You have to take responsibility for me, and in return, I should be responsible for you, Baron Stuart said lightly and nonchntly, looking at her as if it was only natural..

Trantor: 549690339
Emily Walker waspletely dumbfounded.
Responsible? This man said that she should be responsible!?
She really wanted to be speechless in anger!
Gritting her teeth, she stared at him, I dont want your responsibility!
Thats fine too, but you have to be responsible for me.
Hold it in.
Emily took a deep breath, trying to suppress the anger in her heart.
Fine, you want me to be responsible for you? How? How am I supposed to stay by your side? Under what pretense? As a gossip-worthy mistress? Or a secret lover? Emilys tone was firm, and a faint mist rose in her eyes for some reason. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Every time she thought about it, she didnt understand why her heart ached.
Her sudden words caught Baron Stuart off guard, and the yful smile on his face disappeared in an instant.
Mistress, lover, why did these words sound so ironic in his ears?
Cant speak? Seeing his silence, Emily continued, So your so-called responsibility is just to have me stay by your side as a gossip-worthy mistress, right?
Baron Stuart looked at her for a long time before finally opening his mouth.
Perhaps there was no way to answer, but he let out a sentence, Whats wrong with being my mistress? Many people would fight for it.
He had no way to answer her question at this moment, but if this could keep her by his side, he would not hesitate.
As long as he could keep her by his side, any method would do.
At his words, Emilys face turned pale in an instant.
What did you say? She looked at him incredulously, her voice trembling.
How could this man say such things so casually?
Even if its being a mistress, whats wrong with it? Whats wrong with staying by my side? At this moment, Baron Stuarts heart was also filled with a sudden irritability. He had never thought about these questions and didnt know how to answer them.
His words were like a cold, bone-chilling sword, so cold that Emilys heart turned to ice.
Then what if Im with Adrian Nash now? What if youre just my lover? How would you feel? Emily looked at him, her eyes filled with pain.
How could this man say such words?
Whats wrong with being a mistress? Ha, is he saying that shes only worthy of being a mistress?
Hearing this, Baron Stuarts originally calm eyes suddenly turned cold, and he snapped, I forbid you to be with him!
She could not be with any other man besides him, absolutely not!
By what right!? Emily roared back in anger. He could say such things himself, but on what grounds did he not allow her to be with others!
Because I said so, Emily, I forbid you to be with any other man. If you dare, Ill kill you for sure. If she were to abandon him, he would rather destroy her by his own hand.
Emily was taken aback again. This man was too overbearing,pletely disregarding others thoughts!
Then kill me, its best to do it now! If she had to be imprisoned by him, she might as well die!
Her defiance undoubtedly angered Baron Stuart to the extreme. He stepped forward, raised his hand, and tightly gripped her chin. The anger on his face was clearly visible, and his scarlet eyes stared straight at her, his sharp gaze seeming to strangle her!
He gritted out the words one by one, Emily Walker, you listen clearly. I wont be the first to kill you. If you dare to be with other men, I will make your little brother pay the price.

Chapter 165 - 165: Emily Walker’s Anger
Chapter 165: Emily Walkers Anger
Trantor: 549690339
Upon hearing this, Emily Walkers eyes widened in shock, incredulously staring at the man before her.
After a moment, she finally snapped in anger, You lunatic! Do you have no humanity?!? With a sudden forceful motion, she swung her chin free from his grip and shouted at the top of her lungs.
This man actually threatened to kill her little brother!
What was she to him? A trapped pet?
Baron Stuart remained silent, his eyes bloodshot from anger.
Her forceful push reopened the wound on his back, small beads of sweat dripping from his forehead.
Furrowing his brow, he could feel the warm sensation of liquid slowly trickling down his back, sticking to his sky-blue shirt.
I told you, youre not allowed to be with any other man. You can try me if you dont believe it. Suppressing the irritation in his heart, Baron Stuart stared straight at her, emphasizing every word with seriousness.
He was slowly realizing that he seemed to be bewitched by her, bing increasingly irritable and restless because of her every word, even to the extent of threatening her in this way.
But why did this woman have to provoke him? Why couldnt she just be content to stay by his side?
Maybe she was just a mistress in the eyes of others, but to him, she was worth much more than a mere mistress. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Baron Stuart didnt dare acknowledge the truth of his feelings and where their importancey.
On what basis What gives you the right!? At this point, Emily was furious beyond measure, her voice hoarse from screaming, and she suddenly threw her clenched fists towards Baron Stuarts chest.
At this moment, she felt so powerless against the man before her. What exactly did she need to do to free herself from this devilish man?
Emilys tearful eyes glistened with unyielding anger as Baron Stuart grabbed her outstretched fists.
He remained silent all night, his every intention to keep her by his side, but now her furious eyes pierced him painfully.
All I want is for you to obediently stay by my side. He grabbed her wildly iling fists and stared at her with a cold gaze.
Hearing this, Emily paused for a moment before suddenly calming down. However, her angry eyes were anything but, locked on him as she spoke deliberately, I will absolutely never stay by your side, never!!!
It was clear that she was just outraged, but why was her heart aching so much?
Looking at her resolute eyes, Baron Stuarts heart felt unbearably restless. This woman, why did she have to challenge him like this? As long as she behaved, it would be beneficial for everyone.
He stared at her for a long time, as if trying to peer into her clear eyes for answers. Why was this woman so unwilling to stay by his side? Was it just because she didnt want to be a mistress?
If not a mistress, then what did she want to be? The Stuart Familys young mistress?
Do you care about Cam Walkers existence? After staring at her for a long time, Baron Stuart suddenly asked.
This unexpected question caught Emily off guard, and she momentarily forgot to struggle, seeming sensitive to the topic.
Why was he suddenly asking this?
What did he mean by her caring about Cam Walkers existence?
Tell me, do you care about her existence? Seeing her hesitate, Baron Stuart asked again.
How he wished her answer would be yes..

Trantor: 549690339
Emily Walker paused for a long time, then finally regained her thoughts, Of course not, why would I care about her existence? She asked him back.
Cam Walker is his fiancee, and she has nothing to do with her. How could she possibly care about her existence?
Upon hearing this, Baron Stuarts deep eyes suddenly darkened.
If she didnt care, why was she so fiercely opposed to being the mistress?
Then why wont you stay by my side obediently? Baron Stuart asked again.
Hearing this, Emily felt likeughing. How many women in this world would be willing to stay by a mans side as a mistress?
Perhaps there are many such women, but who would be content with being a hidden mistress? Who doesnt want to be the rightful wife?
Baron Stuart also thought so. Not to be narcissistic, but countless women flocked to him like moths to a me, even if they were only mistresses or lovers.
The reason I dont want to stay by your side is because Emily spoke urgently but stuttered, then continued, is because I dont like you.
Yes, she doesnt like him, which is why she is unwilling to stay by his side.
After saying this, Emily secretly told herself in her heart.
However, upon hearing herst sentence, Baron Stuarts expression suddenly turned solemn.
He stared at her silently for a long time, then finally let go of her hand and slowly spat out one word, Get lost.
He lowered his gaze without looking at Emily again, his face cold and indifferent, devoid of warmth, like a corner of an iceberg.
Seeing his suddenly cooling face, Emily hesitated for a moment, somewhat puzzled.
Did she say something wrong? Why had this man suddenly be so cold, like an iceberg?
He had just asked her to stay by his side, but now he was nonchntly telling her to get lost.
Shed get lost, dly.
Without saying anything further, Emily nced at him and then turned around, leaving without any hesitation.
Baron Stuart kept his head down, clearly in a terrible mood.
At this time, yton Howard, who had been waiting not far away, saw Emilye out but didnt see his young master. He couldnt help but be suspicious and walked towards the direction she hade from.
Sister, are you alright? Wace Carter, who was very attentive, saw at a nce that his sisters eyes were red from crying. He was worried that she had been wronged somehow.
Emily came over and looked at her brother and Adrian Nash, forcing a weak smile, Im fine.
After saying this, she couldnt help but look back. At this time, Baron Stuart and yton Howard were walking out from the corner.
yton Howard followed behind Baron Stuart, and when he saw the fresh blood staining his light blue shirt, he couldnt help but open his eyes wide in astonishment.
Young Master, your wound
Baron Stuart remained silent, just with a cold face as he walked towards the ck Bentley, not even ncing at Emily standing nearby, as if she had be a stranger to him within a second.
Because the angle between them was from the side, Emily did not see the wound on his back.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
yton Howard looked at the silent young master, then at Emily not far away, not knowing what the tangle between them was.
Emily, too, was confused and puzzled by Baron Stuarts sudden coldness. Watching him walk into the ck Bentley without looking back, she lowered her gaze, turned to her brother and Adrian Nash.
Lets go.
After that, the three of them got into the white Porsche..

Baron Stuart sat in the back seat with a cold expression, looking at the three people entering the colorful Porsche through the outside rearview mirror.
His eyes were cold, all the anger long gone, even the deep-rooted rage vanished at this moment.
Seeing his back stained red with blood, yton Howard didnt dare to pause for a moment, starting the car and immediately heading toward the hospital.
Go back to the Stuart manor, Baron calmly spoke up midway, his eyes cold throughout.
Half an hourter, the ck Bentley arrived at the Stuart Manor. At this moment, a red sports car was apanying them into the grand courtyard.
yton nced at the drivers seat of the red sports car and looked back at Baron Stuart in the rear seat through the rearview mirror. He whispered softly, Its Lady Walker.
In the back seat, Baron Stuart had no expression at all, his face cold as ice.
The two luxury cars drove into the Stuart familys parking garage. Baron Stuart and Cam Walker got out of the car together.
Baron, Cam Walker immediately ran over with a smile as soon as she saw him. Just as she was about to hold his arm, she noticed the bright red blood stain on his scap and couldnt help but widen her eyes in shock. Baron, your wound
It was as if Baron could neither see her nor hear her words. He just walked towards the living room entrance on his own.
At this time, Vivian Ferguson, hearing themotion, rushed out of the living room. When she saw her son, her anxious heart finally settled down, but the worry still showed on her face.
Baron, the doctor said you discharged yourself from the hospital. How could you not take care of yourself like this? Why must you make your mother worry?
Still feeling unease about the blood transfusion, Baron didnt pay attention to his mother Vivian and instead walked silently towards the living room.
Madam, Young Masters wound has reopened, we must call Doctor Gavin immediately! yton, closely following, revealed a worried expression as well while speaking to Vivian.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Upon hearing this, Vivians face changed dramatically. She quickly turned around and indeed saw her sons back already dyed red by fresh blood as he entered the living room.
Lan, quickly call Doctor Gavin toe over! Scarlett finished speaking and anxiously rushed into the living room, arriving in front of her son.
Baron, what happened? How could your wound suddenly reopen like this? Vivians heart tightened again at the thought of her son barely clinging to life due to excessive blood loss before.
Baron sat on the sofa, taking off his coat, while looking at Lan who just finished making the phone call, Get me a change of clothes.
Looking at the shocking wound, Lan was also startled and anxiously replied, Yes!
After saying that, she hurriedly ran to the second floor.
yton, how could you let Baron discharge himself before he fully recovered? Seeing his reopened wound, Cam suddenly turned her head and used yton.
Beforeing here, she had gone to the hospital and learned that Baron had suddenly left on his own. She thought he had returned to the Stuart Manor, only to witness this scene.
Upon hearing Camsment, Vivian couldnt help but look at yton, her face inevitably bing somewhat displeased.
Who gave you the right to criticize my people? Baron slowly looked up, his sharp eyes staring straight at Cam Walker, his voice cold as thin ice.
His words made both Cam Walker and Vivian Ferguson slightly stunned, especially Cam Walker, whose face turned somewhat embarrassed..

In front of a servant, Noblewoman Herself was unwilling to give her any face, causing her face to start turning ugly.
She was worrying about him when she med yton Howard, but he treated her like this!
Looking at the stalemate between the two, Vivian Ferguson immediately smiled and looked at her son, Baron Stuart, Cam is just worried about you, how can you talk to her like that!
Baron Stuart nced at his mother, his voice cold, Mother, when did you start learning to lie?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Caught by his question, Vivian Ferguson was stunned for a moment, not understanding his words.
Whats wrong with you, Baron Stuart? What lie did Mother tell? Vivian Ferguson seemed to have forgotten about the blood transfusion, and hadnt realized what kind of lies she had told, which caused her son to speak to her in such a cold tone. This was unprecedented.
Baron Stuart looked at his mother intently, then looked away, ignoring her.
At this moment, Doctor Gavin arrived.
Fortunately, the wound did notpletely open. After Doctor Gavins suturing, the bleeding was finally stopped.
Baron Stuart put on a clean white shirt. Due to the location of the injury affecting his arm, he struggled putting on the shirt. Seeing this, Cam Walker wanted toe and help, but she was stopped by a sharp cold nce from Baron Stuart, causing her to hesitate, not daring to approach.
Cam Walker secretly clenched her teeth, wondering if he had discovered that the blood wasnt hers? Otherwise, why was he still so cold and indifferent to her now, even worse than before?
After changing his clothes, Baron Stuart went upstairs without acknowledging Cam or his mother, Vivian Ferguson.
Watching her son go upstairs alone, Vivian Ferguson worried for a moment, then turned her head to look at yton Howard, asking in a deep voice, Where did Baron Stuart go just now?
She was worried that her son had suddenly left the hospital because of the girl named Emily Walker.
Feeling Madams displeasure, yton Howard lowered his head, replying calmly, He went to talk business with an important client.
Upon hearing this, both Vivian Ferguson and Cam Walker were doubtful, Is it true?
Yes, yton Howard nodded with an unchanged expression. He knew that
Madam has always been concerned about Young Lords rtionship with Lady Carter, so it was better not to let Madam know about todays incident involving Lady Carter to avoid furtherplications.
However, what exactly happened between Young Lord and Lady Carter, as they seemed to have had an unpleasant argument?
On the second floor, after returning to his room, Baron Stuart was already sweating from the pain he had suppressed earlier. Although he had changed into clean clothes, the sticky feeling still annoyed him.
He went into the bathroom, intending to take a quick shower while avoiding the wound.
His hand identally touched the mandarin duck stone on his neck. Baron Stuart paused, then without hesitation, tore off the mandarin duck stone from his neck.
After taking a bath and bringing out the mandarin duck stone, Baron Stuart stared at it for a long time before throwing it into the trash can
Stepping out of the room, Baron Stuart came to the study. He stayed in the study dealing with work all afternoon, not allowing anyone to disturb him, even Vivian Ferguson was blocked outside the room door.
It wasnt until dinner time that Vivian Ferguson went upstairs again, knocking on the door of the study, Baron Stuart, its time to go downstairs for dinner.
Her sons injuries had notpletely healed, and Vivian Ferguson was worried that he might not go downstairs to eat dinner..

However, that wasnt the case. About ten secondster, the door to the study opened, and Baron Stuart walked out.
Seeing hime out, Vivian Ferguson finally felt relieved and smiled slightly, Its time for dinner!
At the dining table, Cam Walker was kept behind by Vivian Ferguson to join them tor dinner.
At this time, Be Stuart also came back.
Brother,e sit here! Be Stuart pointed to the spot next to her, motioning Baron Stuart to sit there.
When Cam wasnt around, she and her brother would sit on opposite sides. Now when looking at the woman across the table, Be Stuart was clearly unweing, but since she was in front of her mother, she couldnt be too obvious about it, and simply maintained a cold indifference.
As soon as Be Stuart spoke, she was promptly met with a re from Vivian Ferguson, as if to say she had no sense of propriety.
Then, she lifted her head, and smiled at her son Baron Stuart, Baron, you sit over there.
Since Cam was sitting on the side that Baron had to walk by, Vivian naturally wanted to promote the rtionship between the two and pointed to the spot beside Cam.
It was just a meal after all, and Baron didnt pay much attention to it. He sat down next to Cam without thinking too much about it.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Because, before that, it had always been his spot.
Vivian also knew this point, and thats why she let Cam sit next to Barons usual spot.
She knew that her son had always had this habit: once a thing was determined, it would be very hard to change.
His sitting down like this delighted Cam, who couldnt help but secretly hooked the corner of her lips into a smile. After all, Be had called for him to sit over there, but he didnt and chose to sit by her instead.
Cam, eat more vegetables. Since they were to be inws soon, Vivian naturally treated Cam with more courtesy.
Thinking of Emily Walker, she wished her son could be together with Cam even more.
Cam smiled and nodded, then looked at Baron beside her. Since he was injured now, should his fiance help him with the dishes?
Upon thinking about this, Cam smiled slightly, picked a chicken leg from a te, and put it into Barons bowl, You lost so much blood today; eat more to regain your strength!
She smiled at him, and ever since he chose to sit next to her, Cam had looked happy.
As Baron bowed his head to eat, a chicken leg suddenly appeared in his bowl. He couldnt help but pause, expressionlessly looking at the extra chicken leg in his bowl.
It seemed she used the same chopsticks she was using to pick it for him?
Baron had a quirk: he never touched or approached things he disliked.
Seeing his suddenly cold face, Cams smile froze, not understanding why he suddenly became unhappy. Was it because she took the dish he didnt like? Seeing this, Vivian quickly chimed in with a smile, Baron, look how good Cam is to you, picking your favorite chicken leg out of all these dishes!
Be, on the other hand, couldnt help but roll her eyes at her mother, Mother! Are we supposed to pick green vegetables and radishes for my brother?
Of course, we pick the good dishes! Besides, where did her brother ever show a love for chicken legs? He just didnt dislike it, okay!
Hearing this, Vivian couldnt help but re at her daughter. This mischievous girl, always causing trouble!
Feeling her mothers re, Be pouted and silently lowered her head to eat.
Seeing that Baron didnt intend to touch the chicken leg she picked, Cam couldnt help but feel embarrassed, even hesitating to use her own chopsticks.

Trantor: 549690339
Baron Stuart nced at the chicken leg in his bowl, and somehow, suddenly turned to look at Cam Walker and asked coldly, Do you know how to cook instant noodles?
It seemed that, for the first time, Baron Stuart was looking at her directly.
Cam Walker was a little taken aback and stuttered, What?
Cooking instant noodles.
Vivian Ferguson and Be Stuart, who were beside him, were also baffled by his words. Instant noodles had never been seen in the Stuart family before.
Why was he suddenly bringing up instant noodles now?
All three women looked at him at the same time, but Baron Stuart still had his eyes on Cam Walker, waiting for her answer.
A momentter, Cam Walker slowly came to her senses. Was he asking her to cook instant noodles?
But how? For the past 22 years, she had never cooked!
Not knowing how to respond to Baron Stuarts sudden and inexplicable words, Cam Walker hesitated.
If she said she couldnt, would he disdain her even more?
No, absolutely not!
She smiled, I Ill give it a try.
Baron Stuart watched her, then put down his bowl and chopsticks and said coldly, Sister-inw Brooke, prepare two packs of instant noodles. Hearing his order, Sister-inw Brooke had a baffled look on her face, but after a moment of confusion, she bowed and said, Yes.
About ten minutester, Sister-inw Brooke returned with the instant noodles.
Cam Walker picked up the two packs of instant noodles in front of her, looked at the expressionless Baron Stuart, and then helplessly entered the kitchen.
Having lived for more than twenty years, she had always been pampered and never cooked. Thinking about this, she suddenly felt like she was being treated like a maid.
Cam Walker approached the kitchen and looked at the instant noodles on the kitchen counter. Although she had never cooked them before, she at least knew to boil water first.N?v(el)B\\jnn
So, Cam Walker filled half of a pot with water, and after the water boiled, she clumsily added the noodles.
If it werent for Baron Stuart, and if it werent for her trying to sessfully be a member of the Stuart family and win Baron Stuarts heart, why would Cam Walker be subject to such servant-like treatment here!
More than ten minutester, the pot of instant noodles was finally ready and smelling great!
Since the seasoning in instant noodles is quite abundant, the cooked noodles had a delicious smell.
Cam Walker held the bowl of noodles and suddenly felt a small sense of aplishment. She hadnt expected that her first time cooking would produce such fragrant noodles.
As she carried the noodles out, Cam Walker walked carefully to the side of the dining table. At this time, Baron Stuart, Vivian Ferguson, and Cam Walker were all still sitting at the dining table front.
Though Vivian Ferguson was a little unhappy about her sons sudden and unreasonable request, she smiled faintly when she saw Cam Walkering out sessfully.
Cam Walker ced the noodles in front of Baron Stuart. Be Stuart, who was next to him, saw cooked instant noodles for the first time and couldnt help swallowing. It seemed like they tasted good.
Vivian Ferguson looked at the cooked instant noodles and couldnt help but frown. She looked at her son, Baron Stuart, can this can this be eaten? Baron Stuart didnt speak, just gazed indifferently at the bowl of noodles in front of him.
Although they were both instant noodles, the ones in front of him werepletely different from the first ones he had tasted.
Why arent there any eggs and tomatoes? Baron Stuart didnt even look at Cam Walker, just stared at the bowl of noodles and asked coldly, his face remaining expressionless.
At his question, Cam Walker paused, feeling somewhat bewildered.
What eggs and tomatoes? Do they need to be added when cooking noodles?

Then how about I-Ill go and cook you another bowl? Although Cam was unwilling to say this, she had no choice. After all, she would rather be a bit humiliated herself, as long as it could satisfy Baron Stuart.
Baron Stuart ignored her and merely nced at the noodles before getting up and leaving the dining table.
That bowl of noodles somehow looked different from the first time.
Looking at the neglected noodles and Baron Stuarts retreating figure up the stairs, Cam felt hatred gnawing at her heart!
She had finally swallowed her pride and spent a long time in the kitchen preparing this bowl of noodles like a servant. Yet Baron Stuart didnt even bother to take a single bite, which made her feel humiliated. It felt like he was deliberately humiliating her!N?v(el)B\\jnn
As his figure disappeared at the stairs entrance on the second floor, Cam clenched her fists and forcefully suppressed her dissatisfaction in her heart.
Feeling the atmosphere growing awkward, Vivian Ferguson hurriedly smiled and said, Cam, you didnt eat much just now. Come on, sit down and eat some more.
As her words fell, Vivian reached out to invite Cam back to the dining table front.
Indeed, Cam was still hungry because she had been busy preparing instant noodles for Baron Stuart just now and hadnt even had a couple of bites of her meal.
Be Stuart, who didnt like her anyway, also stood up and said, Im full. You can eat slowly, Mother.
Having said that, she headed towards the second floor as well.
At night, feeling bored Be went to her brothers room to chat with him but didnt find her brother there. He must be busy working in the study room again!
Her brother was so awesome. Ever since their grandpa handed over the Futuren Group to him to managepletely, the Stuart Familys business had been growing bigger and bigger. Now it was almost too much to handle. However, she believed that nothing could stop her brother!
This was the reason she admired her brother the most!
Because Baron Stuart had always pampered her since childhood, Be had no habit of knocking on doors. When she arrived at the study room door, she pushed it open without hesitation.
Upon entering, she indeed saw her brother sitting at the office desk.
Baron Stuart was fully absorbed in his work and didnt need to look up to know it was his sister who had opened the door.
That was because in their home, Be Stuart was the only one who could enter his territory without knocking on the door.
Baron Stuart didnt look up but kept working with a serious and solemn expression on his face.
Brother Be cautiously approached and spoke, knowing that her brother didnt like to be disturbed when he was working.
But she was just too bored!
Moreover, she wanted to ask him why he suddenly thought of having Cam cook those noodles for him tonight. After all, they never saw those things at their home.
Without raising his head, Baron Stuart simply said, You should be sleeping at this hour.
Hehe I cant sleep, I want to chat with you. Be sat down on the sofa nearby, looking lively and adorable in her little white rabbit pajamas.
I dont have time, Baron Stuart replied, his face expressionless, and his mindpletely focused on the document.
But, this was strange. In the past, whenever she went to find her brother, even if he was busy, he would always raise his head and give her a smile.
Brother Be looked at him, her eyebrows furrowing in suspicion. Today. I mean, the noodles you had Cam cook, how did you suddenly think of having her cook instant noodles for you? Have you eaten them before? Where did you try them?

Tell her when it happened, and shell go try it out someday, as it seems to have a pretty good taste.
Baron Stuart paused in the middle of signing, his gaze lifted slightly, as if his thoughts had drifted to another ce.
After a moment, he finally spoke up, seeming dazed, I havent tried it.
Hearing this, Be Stuart frowned in disappointment, as she had initially thought that her brother had already tried it and would tell her the address.
She never expected that he hadnt tried it at all.
Why did he ask Cam Walker to cook it then? Was it just to mess with Cam Walker?
Hmm, that was a possibility!
Oh Be Stuart sat on the sofa hugging a pillow, swinging her legs lightly, then changed the topic. By the way, brother, have you met with Emily Walker? Hows her health? Upon mentioning this, Be Stuart lowered her face and mumbled to herself, Losing so much blood all at once, I wonder if she has recovered yet
She spoke naturally, not seeming to be talking to Baron Stuart at all.
However, upon hearing this topic, Baron Stuarts hand, browsing the file folder, paused once more.
He put down the document in his hand, raised his cold face, and looked at Be
Stuart sitting on the sofa, his voice deep, Go back to your room and sleep.
Be Stuart raised her head, wondering whats wrong with her elder brother?
Alright, it seemed that she was disturbing his work!
Reluctantly, she left Baron Stuarts study room and returned to her own room. As soon as she entered, the cell phone on her bed rang.
She nced at the caller ID, which showed it was from Leonardo Bryson, and immediately answered with excitement.
Thankfully, her elder brother asked her to return to the room; otherwise, she would have missed Leonardo Brysons call!
Thus, Be Stuart who was bored chatted with Leonardo Bryson untilte at night before going to sleep.
Early the next morning, Baron Stuart, as usual, got up on time. Although he is recovering at home, he still maintains his habit of waking up on time every day.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
After changing his shirt and washing up, Baron Stuart went downstairs for breakfast.
During breakfast, Be Stuart suddenly discovered something.
She sat facing Baron Stuart and asked with confusion, Brother, where is your pendant? Did you return it to Emily Catching herself before finishing, Be Stuart quickly nced at her mother, who was sitting nearby.
Mother seemed to dislike Emily Walker, so this matter should be kept from her.
For the past few days, she had seen her brother wearing the mandarin duck stone pendant. Why was it missing today?
Hearing her words, Baron Stuarts chewing motion paused only to respond indifferently, I threw it away.
What? He threw it away? Be Stuart looked bewildered.
Wasnt that thing Emily Walkers? Why did he throw it away?
Brother, why did you throw it away? That thing belonged to Emily Again, stopping mid-sentence, Be Stuart nced at her mother.
Vivian Ferguson seemed to have caught on to something, and inquired curiously, What mandarin duck stone?
Nothing, just a pendant I bought a while ago. I didnt like it, so I just threw it away. And with that, Baron Stuart continued eating his breakfast with a cold expression.
Be Stuart slowly chewed her food, looking at her brother.
Something was wrong, something was abnormal about her brother, there must be a problem!
After breakfast, Baron Stuart got up and returned to his room on the second floor.
Upon entering the room, his gaze involuntarily went towards the trash can where the mandarin duck stone was thrown away yesterday.
However, as his eyes swept across, the trash can fromst night was nowpletely empty
He jolted, his eyebrows furrowing slightly..

After a standoff of just under three seconds, Baron Stuart quickly turned to dash downstairs, hollering at the living room, Who cleaned my room today!? He was furiously indignant, visibly in a terrible mood.
Still at the dinner table, Vivian Ferguson and Be Stuart were both taken aback as they saw him suddenly rush down and rage at the servants. Their movements halted mid-meal, watching him in a daze.
Servants were always terrified when the master was angry, fearing they had identally provoked their master, thus losing their good jobs.
A few of the aunt servants hurried to the living room after hearing his shout, their hearts racing in fear as they looked up at the Young Master on the staircase.
Stuart, what happened? Vivian Ferguson also got up and walked into the living room. Seeing her son enraged, she became somewhat puzzled.
Baron Stuart ignored his own mother and instead red with evident anger, I asked who cleaned my room?!
Time seemed to stand still for a few seconds. The atmosphere was somewhat terrifying, as if the entire living room was filled with the smell of gunpowder, just waiting to explode.
A momentter, a servant aunt came in from outside the living room just in time to hear Baron Stuarts roar.
She shivered, taking a fearful step forward without daring to look at Baron
Stuart, her voice trembling, It it was me.
All the servants of the Stuart family knew that their young master did not like other people cleaning his room while he was still in it, so the aunt servants would only go up to tidy and organize the room when he went downstairs for breakfast.
This was how it had always been until now, and today was no exception.
But why did the young master suddenly lose his temper? Could it be that he lost something? Or did she break something?
But ording to her memory, she didnt think she had broken anything.
Hearing her, Baron Stuart turned to the aunt servant, his voice grave, Who told you to clean the trash can?
The aunt paused, somewhat taken aback.
Didnt the young master dislike leftover stuff from the previous day being in his room the next day? So cleaning the trash can every day was a must.
Seeing his grumpy face, the servant was terrified, thinking she had done something she shouldnt have, and was panicking.
Being servants, no matter how right they were, they were always wrong in front of the master!
Seeing her son irrationally getting angry, Vivian Ferguson on the side had no choice but to speak, Stuart, isnt it always that someone cleans your room when you are eating? That rule was made by you.
Baron Stuart nced at the scared servant aunt, still ignoring his mother, but he did take in her words.
Where did you throw the trash from my room? Baron Stuart stared at the servant, asking in a deep voice.
The aunt was filled with fear, and her voice trembled as she said, Atat the first trash can at the entrance of the residential area
Before the servant could finish speaking, Baron Stuart was already seen dashing out.
(Note: The residential area refers to an upscale viplex, not a residential district.)
Watching her brother who suddenly rushed out, Be Stuart also had a puzzled look on her face. Could it be that her brother had lost something?
The Stuart Manor wasnt far from the entrance, and about ten minutester, Baron Stuart returned, his light blue shirt in disarray. This was the first time that she had seen him in such a state.
Because her brother was the cleanest person she knew!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Vivian Ferguson at the side was so surprised that she could hardly speak, asking, Stu Stuart, what is.

Baron Stuart walked past the mother and daughter with a nk expression, heading towards the staircase entrance.
When he passed by Be Stuart, she clearly saw the thin string in her brothers hand, with the mandarin duck stone hanging at the end.
Did Brother go to look for the mandarin duck stone? But, he said he threw it away, right?
Huh? Could it be that it was thrown into that trash can? But if he decided to throw it away, why did he go back and find it again?
A series of questions shed in Be Stuarts mind.
With Adrian Nashs introduction, Emily Walker and her brother Wace Carter sessfully joined the bridal photographypany. As he said, being an assistant wasnt very difficult. Perhaps because of Adrians connections, Emily and Wace were treated well at thepany.
Emily saw other assistants scolded and punished daily, but she and her brother didnt have to face that.
The bridal photographypany had good perks; the best being a monthly housing allowance.
This meant a 1,000 USD monthly supplement, half the normal rent cost.
Emily and Wace received abined 2,000 USD allowance every month. Emily was initially doubtful about this, butter learned from her colleagues that thepany did indeed offer such benefits.
With the extra allowance, Emily and Wace rented a two-room, one-hall apartment for 3,000 USD a month, leaving them to pay only 1,000 USD each month.
Life had finally settled down.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
One day after work, Emily thought it was time for her brother to have a proper set of clothes since getting discharged from the hospital. Seeing other assistants dressed well, she decided to take him shopping that evening.
Not having dinner together, the two hurried to Pedestrian Street to buy clothes.
Wace, what do you want for dinner tonight? Emily felt guilty for not knowing how to cook. Unable to make her brothers favorite dishes, she could only prepare instant noodles.
Wace smiled, I am fine with anything, as long as Sister has it.
He would always say that. Although Emily felt grateful, she couldnt help but think she wasnt taking care of him properly.
Sister, lets not buy clothes for me right now. We can buy them once we get our sry. Wace was worried their living expenses wouldnt be enough, as they hadnt yet received their sries.
But Emily smiled and said, Its fine. You dont have any decent clothes yet.
After trying on different options in various shops, they finally bought Wace a decent casual shirt and pants, which cost just over 380 yuan.
By the time they finished shopping, it was already 7 PM. Since it was summer, the sky hadnt darkened yet.
On their way past a supermarket, they still hadnt had dinner. As usual, Emily could only buy instant noodles to cook and eat.
Are you tired of eating this? After leaving the supermarket, Emily looked at her brother and asked with a smile.
No! Wace replied with a smile.
Emily smiled, thinking her brother had be much more understanding.
Just as they were about to leave Pedestrian Street, they ran into Be Stuart.
Noticing a familiar figure from the corner of her eye, Be paused, turned around, and stared at the familiar silhouette.
Wasnt that ?
Emily! Be Stuart wasnt sure, but she called Emilys name anyway.
Hearing her name, Emily stopped and looked back with confusion.
It really is you! As soon as she saw Emily, Be walked over and looked her up and down.
PS: My dears, I apologize for thete update today!

Although she didnt particrly like her before, ever since she had given her brother a blood transfusion, Be Stuarts regard for her had grown a bit. Looking at Be Stuart in front of her, Emily Walker was somewhat surprised, and at the same time, she felt a strange sensation burgeoning in her heart.
It had been half a month since thest time she saw that man.
And at this moment, she unexpectedly bumped into his sister here.
Emily Walker pursed her lips and gave a smallugh.
She noticed the man next to her, who seemed quite tall but whose face revealed an age not too different from hers.
Its odd, did Emily Walker dump her outstanding brother and start to be with this pretty boy?
Thinking of her brothers abnormal behavior during this period, Be Stuart couldnt help but specte secretly.
By the way, have you been feeling better since thest time you gave my brother a blood transfusion? Be Stuart unusually took on a caring tone today, making Emily Walker feel a tad ufortable.
What happened to Young Miss Stuart all of a sudden? Why did even her tone change?
Upon hearing this, Wace Carter looked at Emily Walker in shock and asked, Sis, who did you give a blood transfraction to?
He had no idea that the girl in front of him was Baron Stuarts sister.
No wonder his sister looked much paler after she was discharged from the hospital. And here he thought it was due to a rough life. But it turns out she had given someone else a blood transfusion.
Emily Walker turned her head to look at Wace Carter. Up to this moment, her little brother had no idea shed given blood to Baron Stuart. And judging from his expression, he had been quite worried about her rtionship with Baron Stuart.
Howe, you dont recognize my brother? Before Emily Walker had a chance to speak, Be Stuart haughtily broke in, throwing a scornful nce at Wace Carter.
Just thinking that this handsome man might be her brothers rival made her inexplicably annoyed, and naturally, she didnt show him a friendly face. Upon receiving Be Stuarts scornful look, Wace Carter appeared confused.
Did he offend this girl somewhere?
And also, her brother? Who was her brother? Was he supposed to know him?
Looking at her appearance, it seemed to resemble somebodys face but he couldnt remember who it was for a moment.
Who is your brother? Wace Carter asked in a calm tone.
Hearing this, Be Stuart looked at him surprised and a bit annoyed. You dont know my brother?
No wonder he dared to rival her brother for a woman. So, it turned out that he didnt know her brother!
Ha, kiddo, let me tell you, youd better run away before my brother discovers you! If he finds out that youve been going after his woman, youll most certainly meet a terrible end.
After saying this, Be Stuart shook her head as if it was a pity, and her sympathizing gaze swept over him. She genuinely felt sorry for him. After all, he appeared to be in his early twenties. It would be a pity if he died young. The baffling words confused Wace Carter, even Emily Walker seemed to be puzzled.
Only after a long while, did Emily Walker seem toprehend what Be Stuart was implying. She turned to Be Stuart and said, Miss Stuart, this is my younger brother, Wace Carter.
What?
Be Stuart faltered for a moment, ncing between Emily Walker and Wace Carter.
Her younger brother?
Sis, hearing this, Wace Carter finally understood something, You called her Miss Stuart? Is she Is she Baron Stuarts younger sister, the youngdy from the Stuart family?
Hed heard that she was 18 years old. So the arrogant youngdy in front of him must be the same one hed heard about..n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om

Emily Walker pursed her lips slightly and didnt say much. Instead, she turned to Be Stuart, Lady Stuart, were going to leave now.
Saying that, the siblings were about to leave.
Watching their departing figures, Be immediately chased after them, Hey, I have so many questions to ask you!
Seeing her rushing up, Emily looked surprised, and with a frown, stared at her.
I, I want to ask you, are you feeling better? Ever since thest time she saw her pale and leaving the hospital, Be had been quite concerned about her.
Hearing the question, Emily smiled. She wasnt used to the sudden change in
Be yet. Im much better now, thank you.
Oh Be nodded her head, eyes downcast, as if she still had a lot of questions to ask but couldnt think of anything for the moment. N?v(el)B\\jnn
Following her drooping gaze, Be spotted the transparent bag in Emilys hand.
Whats that?
Emily looked where she was pointing, Instant noodles.
Instant noodles? Werent those the noodles her brother wanted to make for Cam Walker recently? Be furrowed her brows in confusion before looking back up at Emily. Why did you buy these?
Embarrassed by this topic, Emily still didnt feel too ashamed and just told the truth, We havent had dinner yet, so we thought wed take them home to cook.
Upon hearing that, Bes eyes lit up, Cooked? Can Ie over to your ce to eat?!
She looked at Emily with glowing eyes, holding her clothes near her chest with both hands and begging.
Caught off guard by her sudden reaction, Emily hesitated and asked, Come to my ce to eat?
Yes! Be nodded her head eagerly, having wanted to try this taste for a long time!
Emily was dumbfounded. What was going on with young Miss Foster? She actually wanted to go to her house to eat instant noodles?
Looking at her expectant gaze, Emily somehow agreed, possibly unable to resist her pitiful, pleading look.
The three of them arrived at a residential building, where Emily and her brother lived on the second floor.
Looking at the decent environment of the residential area, it was Bes first time visiting such a ce.
They entered the living room, which was small in Bes perspectivepared to her own house.
She sat down on the small sofa in the living room and as a courtesy, Cam Walker poured her a ss of boiled water.
Looking at the water ss on the tea table, Be didnt like it. As a habit, she looked up and asked, Do you have anything like fruit juice?
Hearing that, Cam Walker hesitated, as young Miss Foster was really hard to serve, Sorry, we dont have those things.
They didnt even have fruit juice? Be was skeptical.
Emily came out of the kitchen, having put the stuff away. As neither she nor her brother liked fruit juice, they didnt have any of those things.
How about I make you a cup of milk tea instead? Serving the guest with boiled water didnt seem too considerate.
The only thing Emily could think of was Mandarins Duck Milk Tea, as she remembered that Be loved to drink milk tea from her store when she was working there.
However, she wasnt sure if Be would like Mandarins Duck Milk Tea.
A few minutester, Emily brought a cup of Mandarins Duck Milk Tea in front of Be, But its not pudding-vored.
Its fine! It was better than boiled water, Beughed.
She took a small sip of the milk tea, a faint bitterness mixed with a thick milky aroma. It tasted somewhat simr to coffee but with its own unique vor..

Half an hourter, the three-minute instant noodles were ready.
Looking at the fragrant three bowls of noodles, Be Stuart was eager to dig in.
There were eggs and tomatoes in them, which looked even better than those made by Cam Walker!
Well then, Im going to start eating! she said as she couldnt wait any longer, picking up her chopsticks, blowing on the noodles, and preparing to put them in her mouth. Just then, her cell phone ringtone sounded.
Be took out her cell phone with a touch of annoyance, wondering who the hell dared interrupt her meal!
She nced at the caller ID, and it read: Mother!
Oh, its Mom!
Hello, Mom!
Be, why havent youe home yet? Its almost 8 PM. Vivian Ferguson, who was sitting in the living room, looked worried.
Mom, dont worry. Im at Emilys Be paused, then quickly changed her words, Im at a ssmates house for dinner. Ill be back home soon.
ssmate? Which ssmate? Vivian Ferguson asked, frowning.
Uhanyway, you dont know them. Thats it, Ill be back soon. Bye! As if fearing her mother would continue probing, Be hurriedly hung up the phone without waiting for Vivian to reply.
Looking at the hung-up phone, Vivian Ferguson was helpless.
ncing at Baron Stuart on the sofa, she said, Baron, its time for dinner. Wheres Be? Baron asked calmly as he took a seat at the dining table.
She said shes having dinner at a ssmates house and will be backter.

At 3 PM, the makeup artist Antonio Bailey anxiously said to the photographer
Jason, Im leaving the rest to you, Emily! Lets go.
Antonio quickly packed up his things and prepared to leave the studio with Emily.
Seeing this, Jason hurriedly asked, Hey, where are you guys going?
I have no choice. A good friend is having an engagement party, and I have to make her the most beautiful bride in the world tonight! Antonio said, pulling Emily along and looking back at Jason.
Hey, you two are going together?!
Of course! Emily is my assistant, and tonights event is also considered part of my working hours, so if Emily goes, shell get extra overtime pay! Antonio smiled and left the photographypany with Emily.
Sister Carter, arent we going to do makeup for your friend? About half an hourter, their car arrived at arge shopping mall, where Antonio was busy selecting dresses while Emily looked puzzled by his side.
Yes, but after we finish our work, well just go to her engagement banquet. Antonio picked out a dress for himself and then ced a white rhinestone dress on Emily, saying, Come on, try this one.
Looking at the dress being stuffed into her hands, Emily wondered if she was really going to attend the banquet.
Do I have to attend too? Emily asked Antonio, Of course! Ive already agreed with my friend. Besides, how would you get home alone?
Antonio is a twenty-four-year-old woman, righteous by nature, who also took good care of Emily at work.
After the two had selected their dresses, they headed to the most luxurious five-star hotel in E City.
The car arrived at the hotel entrance, and Emily stepped out, only to realize that the so-called five-star luxury hotel was in fact the Futuren Hotel.
Looking at the familiar hotel entrance, Emily felt as if something had been touched deep within her heart. She hesitated and stood still, staring nkly at the reception hall.
Seeing her not moving, Antonio, who had already walked ahead, turned around and asked, Whats wrong?

Emily Walker came to her senses and smiled, Its fine.
Then, the two of them walked to the second floors Wedding Banquet Host Floor.
Emily was not surprised by the luxurious environment here, because she had been here before.
At this time, it was only half past four in the afternoon, so the Banquet Hall was not crowded, with only the staff invited by the organizer and the security personnel from the Futuren Hotel working here.
As they approached the Banquet Hall, some of the relevant employees were busy decorating the hall with pink roses and pure lilies, which looked so romantic and elegant.
Emily couldnt help but feel a little envious of tonights bride, who must be the most beautiful and happiest of all.
Hey, old ssmate, Im here, where are you? Antonio Bailey called her old ssmate, who happened to be the soon-to-be bride tonight.
After receiving the specific address over the phone, Antonio hung up and took Emily with her to the Brides Makeup and Resting Room.
Just as they arrived at the rooms door, they saw a beautifully shaped woman standing by the door, looking at them.
Long time no see, old ssmate. Antonio walked over, hugged the beautiful woman, and then let go, You are really enviable, with both a fulfilling career and love life!
Youre one to talk. Wheres your Jason? the beautiful woman joked.
Dont even mention him to me! Antonio couldnt help but nce at the soon-to-be bride when she thought of Jason.
Meanwhile, Emily seemed to have heard some shocking news, her pupils widening.
So it turned out that Sister Carter and Jason were
By the way, this is my assistant Emily Walker. I mentioned her to you before. Antonio turned to Emily and introduced her to the soon-to-be bride.
The soonto-be bride looked at Emily, smiled slightly, and reached out her hand, Hello, wee to my wedding banquet.
Seeing the extended hand, Emily felt ttered and reached out her own hand, not forgetting to wipe it on her body first, Hello.
Because the woman in front of her looked so noble and beautiful, and her face seemed familiar
!!! I remember now!
It was the popr movie star Rosanne Nichols, who had transitioned from the modeling industry to the film industry!
She really was beautiful, even more so than how she looked on TV.
Emily was not someone who chased after stars, but she was still shocked by Rosanne Nichols appearance.
After some small talk, everyone entered the Makeup Room to begin preparations for Rosannes big day. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Before long, the soon-to-be groom arrived.
By the time everyones makeup was done and everything was in ce, it waste evening about six. At this time, some prominent families, international movie stars, and well-known figures from the entertainment and business circles who were invited to the banquet tonight have arrived one after another, alling to congratte the couple.
Alright, take a look, I guarantee youll be the most beautiful bride tonight! Looking at herself in the mirror, Rosanne Nichols smiled faintly, looking at Antonio Bailey, who was leaning on her shoulder in the mirror reflections,
Thanks to my old ssmate then.
Alright, you and your assistant should also change your clothes quickly. The wedding banquet is about to begin. After that, Rosanne stood up and took Emily and Antonio into another dressing room.
By the time everything was ready, it was already 7 PM, and the Banquet Hall was already filled with guests.
Emily wore a pure white knee-length strapless dress, with a rhinestone embellished bow tie on the chest, perfectly fitting under the bust, making her look charming and innocent at the same time..

Her silky long hair that hangs on either side of her cheeks was skillfully pinned up at the back of her head by Antonio Bailey, leaving the rest of the hair naturally trailing down her back. She looked pure and sweet.
After Antonios careful styling, Emily Walker instantly transformed into a delicate and charming young woman.
Here, stuff this in! Because Emilys chest was on the smaller side, the strapless dress she was wearing didnt tter her figure as much as it could. Antonio had no choice but to stuff two chest pads inside, making the ensemble look perfect.
Emily stood still, feeling ufortable no matter how she adjusted to the sudden addition to her chest.
Sister Carter, is it too tight? She furrowed her brow; the dress was wrapped so tightly around her by Antonio!
Antonio, however, lookedpletely nonchnt. While fussing with the dress, she said, This isnt tight. You dont know how much other women squeeze themselves just to show off their cleavage!
After saying this, Antonio tightened the back of Emilys dress even more, causing her to wince in pain.
All right, were done!
After they were both finished dressing, the two walked out of the rxation room and headed towards the banquet hall. However, as they left the room, they collided with a man head on.
Wearing high heels, Emily nearly stumbled and fell after being bumped into by the man. Antonio quickly grabbed her, asking, Are you all right?
Emily shook her head and looked at the man who had fallen to the ground after the collision.
RyleeRylee, why are you marrying someone else, when I cherish you so much
The man appeared to be in his forties, seemingly drunk, lying on the ground and mumbling to himself.
Lets go, dont bother with him. Antonio had little patience for inebriated men, and without lingering, quickly pulled Emily into the wedding banquet hall. n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
The wedding celebration began, filling the banquet hall withughter and chatter.
Emily stood quietly to the side, feeling somewhat uneasy in this setting.
The bride was Antonios ssmate, and naturally, many other ssmates attended the event. Soon Antonio was whisked away by others, leaving Emily alone.
There was a suddenmotion in the hall, and Emily, holding her wine ss, followed everyones line of sight.
At this moment, she saw the grand entrance being pushed open by two security guards, with a man in a ck suit entering from outside.
His handsome face, carved like jade, emanated an unweing frostiness. His entire being exuded an unstoppable radiance. Even though the newlyweds were the stars of the show, the instant the man entered, it seemed as if he stole everyones attention.
Baron Stuart entered the wedding banquet hall with an icy expression, paying no attention to Emily in the crowd.
However, Emily noticed him, her expression freezing in disbelief.
Why was he here?
Looking around, Emily suddenly felt an urge to flee.
She once said that she would avoid ces where he was present.
Today, there was no way she could take a detour, but she could try avoiding him, right?
As Baron Stuart entered the grand hall, he suddenly paused, furrowing his brow before looking around.
Due to his tall and upright stature, even in a wedding banquet hall filled with guests, he could still see everything with perfect rity.
However, at this time, Emily had already swiftly entered a corridor at the back of the banquet hall, unnoticed.
Walking down the hallway, she suddenly realized how small the world was. The man she had been trying so desperately to avoid seemed to appear wherever she was, at every moment.

She had changed her job, and there was no longer any connection with that man, but still, as a humble makeup assistant, she finds herself at this upscale Futuren Hotel C a ce she cant ever seem to forget.
Long time no see. Rosanne Nichols, seeing Baron Stuart walk in, couldnt help but move forward and greet him with a smile.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Baron Stuart looked up and saw the woman standing before him, his expression was calm, but the coldness he used to carry was gone.
Congrattions. He spoke quietly, neither warm nor cold, his mind flickering back to their university years of youth and romance.
Rosanne looked at him, a bittersweet smile lifting the corner of her mouth.
Best wishes to you too.
When he got engaged, she hadnt received an invitation from the Stuart family, and so, she couldnt be there to bless him. Now, she couldnt help but wonder if that was a regret.
Baron Stuarts deep gaze was fixed on the woman in front of him. She was truly beautiful. During their university years, he had fallen for her beauty.
But before their rtionship could blossom, her family background had been met with utter disapproval from Grandpa Zachary, and they had lost contact for many years since, only asionally running into each other at public events.
Baron Stuart was not here to attend her wedding or to wish her well. He was here simply because the wedding was held at Futuren Hotel, and as a result he received an invitation from the grooms parents.
Just as the two were talking, Antonio Bailey walked in.
She was a good friend of Rosanne Nichols and naturally knew of Baron Stuart.
After all, during their university years, they both were touted as the perfect couple.
Vivian, youre here. This is Baron Stuart, you Remembering their past from university, Rosanne hesitated for a moment. You should know him.
Antonio Bailey smiled calmly. Although Rosanne had faced opposition from the Stuart family during their university years, and despite the heartbreak that
came with it, she had gotten over it. After all this time, Rosanne had found her
happiness, and those old memories didnt weigh her down anymore.
Perhaps it was the imposing and dignified aura of the man before her that left her unable to pluck up the courage to even shake his hand. She just nodded and said, Hello, with a smile.
Rosanne Nichols turned her head and smiled at Baron Stuart, This is my best friend in college, Antonio Bailey.
Although Baron Stuart wasnt very familiar with Antonio Bailey, he seemed to vaguely remember her always being around Rosanne on campus, and that they were quite close.
On the basis of his deep, mysterious gaze, Baron Stuart merely nced at Antonio Bailey but did not say a word, only nodding curtly.
Speaking of which, wheres your assistant? In the absence of Emily Walker, Rosanne Nichols asked in surprise.
Only after being questioned did Antonio Bailey suddenly remember the existence of Emily Walker!
Oh! She began to look around anxiously, but being of short stature, she couldnt see much.
She was so busy catching up with her ssmates that she hadpletely forgotten about Emily Walker. With a hotel this big, it would be disastrous if she lost her. Adrian Nash, her boss, would surely be livid!
Just when she was lost in her thoughts, a voice that was both sexy and maic suddenly echoed in her ears.
Long time no see, young lord. Adrian Nash walked up with a tall ss in his hand. His thin lips lifted into a perfect curve and his shining eyes were fixed on Baron Stuart,den with hidden meanings.
Baron Stuart lifted his gaze at the sound of Adrians voice, looking at him. For some reason, in his mind, the ordinary but clear face of Emily Walker shed before him..

I remember thest time I saw her, she got into Adrian Nashs car.
Damn it, has she been with this man all along these past half a month?
The thought of it made Baron Stuarts face turn sour, a hint of irritability flickering across it.
Ignoring Adrian Nash, he took a light sip of his high-end red wine.
By the way, where is Emily Walker? Adrian Nash seemed to do it on purpose, he nced at Antonio Bailey standing on one side, but from the corner of his eye, he took a covert look at Baron Stuart, as if he were dering something.
At his words, the hand that Baron Stuart had around his wine ss paused. How long had it been since hest heard that name?
His abnormality was clearly noticed by Adrian Nash, who secretly curled the corner of his mouth victoriously.
On the other hand, Antonio Baileyughed awkwardly, AhEmily, she was here just now, let me go and check.
With that, she slipped out of the crowd.
Adrian Nash turned his head, a sexy and charming smile ying on his lips the entire time. Regardless, the feeling of victory coursed through him at having been able to take Emily away from Baron Stuart.
Baron Stuart, shall we have a drink? He held out his wine ss,ughing as he watched Baron Stuart.
Baron Stuart shot a cold look at the wine in his hand and walked away without acknowledging the offer, his face expressionless.
Watching his retreating figure, Adrian Nashs smile deepened.
Rosanne Nichols on the side was somewhat puzzled.
Congrattions, our campus beauty. Adrian Nash turned his face nonchntly andughed as he looked at Rosanne Nichols.
Rosanne Nichols came back to reality, Thank you.
Emily Walker unknowingly found herself in the restroom, feeling a sense of tranquility in the quietness.
Standing in front of the washbasin, staring at herself in the huge mirror, on second thoughts, didnt she look good once she was made up?
Indeed, as the international top makeup artist, Sister Carter did justice to her fame by transforming her from an ugly duckling to a beautiful swan!
Having used the restroom, Emily decided against going back to the banquet hall, preferring to find a quiet spot to spend the lingering hours instead.
Barely stepping out of the restroom, she bumped into a familiar face around the corner, her feet stopping dead in their tracks, her expression stupefied.
The perfect, jade-like face was as stunning as always, irresistibly alluring.
Seeing the person in front of him, Baron Stuart was equally surprised. But he kept that surprise tucked under his cold expression, his face, as always, void of any warmth.
Seeing his icy gaze, Emily instinctively lowered her eyes.
This man, when he had that cold look on his face, he always emitted a king-like domineering coldness, sending chills down ones spine and making it hard to look into his icy gaze.
Ah, Emily, I finally found you! Howe you are here all by yourself? At this moment, Antonio Bailey ran over. Since she was behind Baron Stuart, she didnt notice the man was Baron Stuart. She ran past him to grab Emilys hand, Lets go, Adrian Nash has been looking around for you. If he doesnt see you soon, he is going to kill me!
Emily was taken aback by Antonio Baileys sudden appearance and words. However, she let herself be dragged away, giving a hesitant nce back at the man standing there.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
But, Adrian Nash was looking for her? Did Adrian Nash himselfe as well?
The man left behind, Baron Stuart, clenched his fist when he heard those words!
Was she really with Adrian Nash?
Thinking about how her beauty tonight was likely the result of meticulous dressing up for Adrian Nash, Baron Stuart could hardly contain the anger rising in him, spreading throughout his body.
He abruptly turned his head, watching the two run towards the wedding banquet hall..

Just as he turned around, Emily Walker stumbled and fell t on her face due to being pulled too quickly by Antonio Bailey and not being very good at walking in high heels
Emily Walkernded embarrassingly on the ground, her brows furrowed, her butt aching. She didnt know whether the man behind her had left or not. If that man saw her in this position, shed bepletely humiliated.
Ah, Emily, are you okay? Antonio Bailey felt somewhat guilty, and hurriedly helped Emily Walker up.
Upon standing up, Emily Walker couldnt help but nce over to see if the man who had been standing there had left.
But as she looked, she nearly lost her breath. The man was walking towards the two of them!
As Baron Stuart approached the two women, his gaze remained fixed on Emily Walkers face.
Only then did Antonio Bailey notice his handsome face, her eyes widening in surprise!
Baron She almost blurted out Baron Stuarts name. She got used to calling
him that during her university years with Rosanne Nichols. Of course, she
never addressed him by his name directly, only mentioning it when chatting
with Rosanne Nichols.
What are you doing here? Not knowing how to address him, Antonio Bailey simply skipped over it.
Baron Stuart didnt even look at her, ring at Emily Walker with anger in his eyes.
Seeing this, Antonio Bailey couldnt help but feel puzzled. Could these two know each other?
Emily, do you know Young Master Stuart? she cautiously whispered into Emily Walkers ear.
Emily Walker came back to her senses, nced at Antonio Bailey, and indifferently shook her head, Lets go.
Just as they turned to leave, they heard Baron Stuarts furious voice, piercing their eardrums!
Emily Walker! Baron Stuart roared. This woman actually imed not to know him? Was she that eager to see Adrian Nash?!
Stunned by his deafening roar, the two women paused simultaneously. Antonio Bailey, in particr, was frightened by the terrifying sound and couldnt help but look back at Baron Stuart.
His icy re and anger on his face made her secretly swallow, having heard that this man was capricious and unpredictable, but she never thought it would be true.
As Baron Stuart slowly approached, his sharp gaze swept over Antonio Bailey, who trembled in fear.
Seeing his cold eyes, Antonio Bailey felt shivers down her spine and wondered if she would be killed by his gaze if she didnt leave now.
You, you guys chat She let go of Emily Walkers hand and left as if escaping.
Sister Carter
Emily Walker wanted to catch up, but Baron Stuart stopped her with one shout,
Are you in such a hurry to see him?
Emily Walker paused, and turned to look at him. There was some confusion in her eyes, but she quickly understood.
It seems like its none of your business. She lowered her head, a little afraid to meet his gaze.N?v(el)B\\jnn
Hearing this, Baron Stuarts anger deepened, his face bing even uglier.
So, are you together with him now? He advanced towards her, his voice colder than ever before.
She was a little scared of his approach, and slowly retreated.
She couldnt figure out this man. So much time had passed, why was he bothering her again now? It seemed like she couldnt guard herself well enough against him, and yet he always pursued her relentlessly.
Tell me! Are you with him now or not? The thought of her fair body lying beneath Adrian Nash night after night agitated Baron Stuarts heart, and he had no ce to vent his frustration.
His voice turned from cold to angry, making people dare not to provoke him so easily..

Emily Walker calmed herself, then raised her head and stared directly at the man before her, speaking decisively, I already said, it has nothing to do with you! Why should I tell you!?
She had nowhere to retreat, and was easily backed into a corner by Baron
Stuart, who looked down at her angrily from above.
Why did this woman always appear so stubborn in front of him? Wouldnt it kill her to be a little more obedient?n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Are you really with him now? Are you so eager to find a man!? It had been just a few months since she left him, yet she was already with Adrian Nash. Thinking about this made Baron Stuart even more furious.
Feeling insulted by his tone, Emily grew angry as well, and retorted, Yes! So what if Im eager to find a man?! This is my business, what right do you have to question me?!
After saying that, Emily tried to break free from his hands pinning her against both sides of the corridor wall, looking up steadfastly and saying, Move aside, hes waiting for me in the wedding banquet room now.
As if intentional, Emily didnt understand why she feltpelled to say such words.
But Baron Stuart couldnt let her go. After hearing her final sentence, it was even more impossible for him to let her go!
With anger in his eyes, he stared straight at her, feeling furious, yet not knowing how to vent it.
From the beginning, he had said that she belonged to him, both body and soul; she could only belong to him!
Dominant and forceful, he kissed her amidst her struggle, subconsciously wanting to possess this womanpletely, both her body and soul, he wanted them all!
Mm His sudden passionate kiss left Emily momentarily stunned, unable to break free. Mmlet goI
Before she could speak, Baron Stuart took the opportunity to delve deeper into her mouth.
While controlling her iling hands, he pinned her tightly against the corner of the wall, the intense kiss growing more and more passionate. It was as if he hadnt tasted her lips in a long, long time; quickly, Baron Stuart became addicted, kissing her more and more wildly
Emily was well aware that this mans kisses held a magical power that could make her sink into them unintentionally; gradually, she lost the strength to resist.
After their passionate encounter, it took a while for Baron Stuart to be satisfied. He slowly released her, his gaze lingering on her swollen lips, as if they were his private property that no other man could touch.
Her kisses had been quite clumsy after all. Was this woman really with Adrian Nash?
Taking advantage of his loosened grip, Emily took deep breaths, feeling as if he was a top predator!
As her breathing steadied, she suddenly came back to her senses. She had clearly been resisting his kiss, but had unknowingly fallen into it in the end, feeling totally humiliated!
Flushed with anger, she nced at the man in front of her, then forcefully pushed the man who had pinned her away, and hurried to the other end of the corridor.
At the other end of the corridor, Adrian Nash stood in the distance, witnessing their passionate kiss in its entirety, his hands clenched at his sides He thought he had won, but it turned out he had only thought so.
Emilys heart had never been with him.
He turned and headed back to the wedding banquet room.
It was Antonio Bailey who had told him that Emily and Baron Stuart were together, so he hade looking for them, only to see such a scene.
If he had known what was going to happen, he would have rather note; even if her heart belonged to Baron Stuart, he could have pretended not to see it as long as he didnt witness it himself..

Some things are far more brutal and heartbreaking when witnessed with ones own eyes than in reality.
Emily Walker, her face flushed with shame, hurried to the staircase of the hotel.
Watching her figure disappear around the corner, Baron Stuart gazed at her for a long time before turning around, not following her.
Sitting on the steps in the corridor, Emily seemed to feel her swollen lips. Atter sitting down, she took out her cell phone from the small leather bag she had with her dress and took a look at the screen, seeing her own swollen lips.
That man was really
She was even more pathetic, being kissed by him until she forgot to struggle. It was so humiliating.
Looking at how the lipstick had been wiped clean by that man, Emily stood up to go to the restroom to fix her lipstick but heard footsteps and a mans murmuring voice as she was about to stand up.
Rylee Rylee I love you so much, whywhy did you marry that bastard ?
Where are you,e out and see me
Hearing the faint voice, Emily looked around and found that the sound wasing from above her head. She stood up and looked at the staircase leading to the third floor.
Looking up, she indeed saw a drunken man stumbling down the staircase. Perhaps because he was drunk, the next second, the drunken man tumbled down the staircase and rolled to Emilys feet.
She instinctively stepped back and looked down at the man on the ground, who seemed to be the one who had bumped into her in front of the bathroom door earlier.
Seeing the bloodstain on his forehead from the fall, Emily felt sympathy and was about to speak, Mister you
Although she was worried about the drunken man, as a woman, she was still somewhat scared. After all, the man in front of her was so drunk that he couldnt even walk.
Emily extended her hand, wanting to bend down to help the man but then drew back.
What if he lost his senses while drunk like this?
However, was it really okay to just leave? What if the man died like this?
Looking at the blood stain gradually flowing from the mans forehead, Emily hesitated and decided to help him up first, then call an ambnce for him.
The man lying on the ground seemed to notice a woman standing beside him, but his eyes were blurry, and he couldnt see the womans face clearly.
Rylee is it really you? The man tried to reach out to grab Emily.
Seeing the hand suddenly reaching towards her, Emily was frightened and instinctively moved back.
Who was this Rylee? She wasnt Rylee!n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Mister, are you all right? Do you want me to call an ambnce for you? She tentatively asked, looking at the man lying on the ground with a guarded face.
He seemed very hurt, not even recognizing people.
Rylee dont leave, you know I love you so much, for you I The man suddenly stretched out a hand and forcefully grabbed Emily by the ankle!
Being grabbed by the foot by a stranger, and a drunk one at that, Emily couldnt help but scream, Ah! What are you doing let go of me, let go!
Emily was so scared that she lifted her foot and tried to shake off the hand, but she couldnt. Instead, she was dragged to the ground by the man.
Her bottom hit the ground again, and Emilys face contorted in pain, nearly in tears.
You finally agreed to see me Do you know, Ive even divorced my wife for you.

Before Emily Walker could recover from the pain, she saw the drunken man suddenly get up from the ground and pounce towards her.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
She was ready to struggle to stand up, but the man directly pounced on her, making Emilys face turn pale as she tried to push him away.
Hey! What are you doingGet up, let go of me!
Oh heavens, can anyone help her? How did she encounter such a pervert!
Ryleel love you, I really love you, Rylee The man forcefully pinned her down, all he could see in front of him was Rosanne Nichols.
What Ryleelm not Rylee, my name is Emily Walker! Emily struggled and shouted. She was disgusted by this strange man on top of her, and the position was terrifying!
Let golet go of me! Emily wanted to push the man away with all her might, but his somewhat fat body made him immovable no matter how hard she tried.
She started to panic, feeling extremely frightened in her heart. This man, would he do something horrible to her?
Ryleel wont let you marry that manl want you now Driven by alcohol, the man suddenly turned fierce, his angry eyes full of possessiveness.
The next second, he leaned down and started kissing the fair skin of Emilys vicle
Emilys eyes widened, feeling utterly disgusted and repulsed by the mans touch, and more than anything, she was terrified and frightened!
Ahh!!! She screamed in horror, struggling with her hands, Let go Let go of me! Im not Rosanne Nichols Im not!
The man seemed not to hear her cries. His desires only deepened, and he even started to tear Emilys white wedding dress
The chilliness from the torn clothes made Emily momentarily numb, and her fear intensified. She didnt want to be defiled by this man!
With that thought, Emily didnt know where she suddenly found the strength, used her hands and feet together, and finally kicked the man off her!
She desperately tried to escape from the ground, but the next second the man grabbed her foot and dragged her back.
Let go Let go of me Emily looked at the man who caught her foot in fear, her eyes filled with helplessness and panic, and even more so, tears.
After being kissed and nibbled aimlessly on her vicle by the man, her neck was now stained red with the fresh blood from the mans forehead, a shocking sight.
The man dragged Emily back, once again pressing his whole body onto her, mumbling to himself, I want you I wont let you marry that bastard!
Having said that, he started tearing at Emilys clothes again.
Her clothes were ripped and messy, with the breast stickers on her chest nearly visible.
Let golet go of me Im not Rosanne Nicholslm not! The helpless tears slowly fell from the corner of her eyes. From the mans ravings, she finally realized that he mistook her for todays bride, Rosanne Nichols.
The whole white dress was torn, revealing the pinkish-yellow breast stickers.
In an instant, Emily froze, her body trembling, as her wide-open eyes filled with fear. At this moment, she didnt know what to do, who would save her, who would help her
Save meBaron Stuart! Regaining her consciousness, she cried out loud, her mind suddenly having a strong awareness, unconsciously yelling out Baron Stuarts name.

Save meBaron Stuart! Conscious again, she cried out loudly; unexpectedly, his name flew out of her mouth as a sudden strong intent consumed her mind.
The echo of her desperate outcry still lingered in the corridor, filled with helplessness. For the first time, Emily Walker was gripped by overwhelming terror and fear.
She closed her eyes; her distressed expression was an image of pure despair.
This ce was far from the wedding banquet hall, nobody would venture into this deste staircase corridor, let alone rescue her.
Just as she closed her eyes in despair, the weight on her body vanished unexpectedly.
She slowly opened her eyes to see a tall figure vehemently raining blows and kicks on the drunken man, like a man possessed.
Emily Walker managed to crawl weakly, clenching her torn clothes tightly against her chest, her face still marked by fear and dread.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Baron Stuart resembled a frenzied lion, his bloodthirsty and crimson pupils ring angrily at the man before him, veins bulging on his forehead due to his rage.
Punch after punch, he brutally beat the drunken man, but no amount of physical violence could quench the anger raging in his heart at that moment!
The drunken man, battered to imbnce, tumbled down the staircase, but Baron Stuart didnt feel relief. He chased after, raining more blows and kicks; the mans face was reduced to a bloody mess and he started to whimper painfully.
Witnessing the bloody scene at the bottom of the stairs, Emily Walker became even more afraid, tightly wrapping herself with her own hands.
His slim, long legs brutally kicked the mans groin, anyone audacious enough to touch his woman would pay the lifelong price!
Only when the man could no longer whimper did Baron Stuart stop his assaults. He quickly returned to Emily Walkers side.
Observing her messy hair, dishevelled body, and the fresh blood on her neck made Baron Stuarts heart jolt heavily as if something was tearing through his chest.
The sight of her trembling body intensified his heartache.
If he hadnt received a sudden phone call earlier, detouring him back to the restroom, he wouldnt have stumbled upon this scene.
If he had not received that call, did not turn back, he dared not imagine what vile humiliation the woman before him would have endured.
He quickly disrobed his suit and cloaked her trembling body with it before lifting her into his arms and slowly walking towards the nearby elevator.
At that moment, yton Howard, who was trying to find him, approached and was left stunned upon seeing Emily Walker in his arms.
Young Lord
Fetch Doctor Gavin. Baron Stuart sternly uttered the words, cradling Emily Walker as he entered the elevator.
On hearing this, yton hurriedly took out his phone and dialed Doctor Gavins number.
The elevator went directly to the 68th floor, where Baron Stuarts private room was located.
Emily Walker was ced on the bed, her body still shaking uncontrobly.
Seeing her trembling body and the startled look on her tear-streaked face made Baron Stuarts heart clench severely. The sight of the blood on her neck was a dreadful sight to behold.
Tell me, where are you hurt? he asked, leaning closer to her with an unprecedented gentleness in his voice.
Emily shook her head. Since her evening dress had been torn, she felt somewhat embarrassed in front of the man and clutched the suit draped over her, doing her best to cover her chest that had only the light pink chest patch left.
Observing the bloodstains on her neck, Baron Stuart wasnt convinced that she wasnt injured. Wanting to ensure if the bloodstain was indeed hers, he reached out to touch the bloodstain under her neck..

Just as his hand was about to reach out, Emily Walker felt embarrassed and quickly said, Im fine, this blood isnt mine
Thinking of the drunken man who had bitten and gnawed at her vicle, Emily felt an extreme difort and disgust.
I I want to take a bath she said with a trembling voice, because her emotions were not yetpletely stable.
Baron Stuart looked at her and whispered softly, Alright.
Upon getting his consent, Emily tried to get off the bed and go to the bathroom, but Baron Stuart scooped her up and carried her directly to the bathroom.
Once in the bathroom, Baron Stuart put her in therge bathtub and then took the showerhead to wash the blood stains off her body.
Even in the bathtub, Emily was still reluctant to take off the suit she was wearing. Of course, the main reason was that Baron Stuart hadnt left, and she couldnt help but feel embarrassed.
Even though he had already seen her body, at this moment, she still felt shy. Coupled with the lingering shadow of what had happened, her emotions had not yet fully settled.
I, I can handle it myself After saying that, Emily reached out to take the showerhead from his hand.
Baron Stuart refused, his tone gentle but with an undeniable dominance, Ill do it.
Emily was stubborn and insisted on not letting him help.
If he didnt give her the showerhead, she simply wouldnt take off her suit, tightly wrapping herself in it.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Seeing her silent and looking so defiant, Baron Stuart felt defeated for the first time.
Ill be outside, call me if you need me, he said softly as he looked at her.
This time, Emily nodded obediently. As long as he left, everything would be fine, and she wouldnt need to call for him anyway.
Handing her the showerhead, Baron Stuart turned and left the bathroom.
With him gone, Emily began to wash away the various stains of blood on her body. Just thinking about the drunk mans saliva made her feel extremely disgusted and no matter how hard she scrubbed, she couldnt seem to wash away the disgusting feeling.
Half an hourter, after washing with warm water, the bloodstains on her neck were cleaned. However, Emily still didnt feel it was enough and continued to scrub vigorously with a towel. Her fair skin turned red from the scrubbing, almost breaking the skin.
Baron Stuart, sitting on the sofa outside the door, couldnt help but worry as she took so long. Just as he was about to get up, he suddenly heard a burst of cellphone ringtone.
Following the sound, he saw the small purse that Emily had been carrying at the wedding banquet lying on the bed.
He got up and walked over, opened the purse, and pulled out the cell phone. He nced at the caller ID, which showed: Sister Carter.
After a moment of silence, Baron Stuart slid the answer button.
Hello? Emily, where are you? Antonio Baileys anxious voice came from the other end of the phone, as the wedding banquet was about to end and she still couldnt find Emily.
As she had seen Emily with Baron Stuart earlier and couldnt find her even after checking the restroom, Antonio couldnt help but worry.
Shes fine, Baron Stuarts deep voice sounded through the phone.
Without waiting for Antonio to speak, he hung up the call.
Looking at the disconnected cell phone, Antonio was momentarily stunned.
Adrian Nash and Rosanne Nichols, who were by her side, hurriedly asked, What happened? Did you find Emily?
As Emily had disappeared during her own wedding banquet, Rosanne was also worried.
Antonio came to her senses and looked at Adrian Nash and Rosanne, saying nkly, A man answered her phone. He said shes fine
Hearing it was a man, Adrian naturally thought of Baron Stuart.
Indeed, Emily was with him. From the very beginning, Adrian was destined to be the losing side..

A man? Rosanne Nichols furrowed her eyebrows, Could it be that Emily Walker has other friends here?
In her impression, she thought that the ordinary Emily Walker was visiting this high-ss ce for the first time, and the people she and her fianc had invited to the banquet were all from the upper-ss society. ording to Emilys family background, she shouldnt know these people. Could she have other friends too?
Antonio Bailey tilted his head and pondered for a while before saying, Maybe
She seems to know Baron Stuart from the Futuren Group.
After speaking, he looked up at Rosanne Nichols.
Rosanne Nichols was stunned, Emily Walker and Baron Stuart knew each other?
Inside the room, Baron Stuart hung up the phone and was about to go to the bathroom when the bathroom door opened.
Emily Walker was wrapped in a bath towel, possibly unustomed to it, and still draped his suit over her body when she came out.
At this moment, the doorbell rang, and yton Howard brought Doctor Gavin over.
Emily Walker was not meeting Doctor Gavin for the first time, so she naturally recognized him.
Im fine, I dont need a check-up, Emily said hastily, shaking her head as
Doctor Gavin was about to examine her body.
She was just scared and not injured anywhere.
After taking a bath, Baron Stuart also saw that her fair neck was not injured, and he felt relieved. However, he was still worried about whether she was injured elsewhere.
Are you sure youre okay? Baron Stuart approached her and asked.
Emily Walker looked at him and shook her head, indicating that she was fine.
ncing at yton Howard and Doctor Gavin, the two immediately understood and turned to leave.
After the two left, Emily Walker looked at the time, it was already 9 PM, and she was not sure if the wedding banquet had ended.
After thinking about it, she decided to make a call to Antonio Bailey. After all, she had no clothes to wear now, so she needed Sister Carter to help her deliver a set of clothes.
Seeing her picking up the phone, Baron Stuart walked over, Who are you trying to find?
His tone was faintly sour, unsure if she was about to call Adrian Nash.
Emily lifted her gaze to look at him, her expression slightly stunned, I, I want
Sister Carter to help me bring a set of clothes.
What was the matter with him? She just wanted to make a call to Antonio Bailey. Why did he look so concerned?
Baron Stuarts pupils narrowed slightly, Not calling Adrian Nash?
What would she call Adrian Nash for?
Emily Walker shook her head, not understanding the meaning of his words,n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
Upon hearing this, the sour feeling in Baron Stuarts heart instantly disappeared, and he immediately took the phone out of her hand, saying, The wedding banquet is over, they should have gone back. Ill have someone prepare clothes for you in a while.
Looking at the phone that was taken away, Emily Walker didnt react for a moment, staring nkly at his back.
Seeing that the child behind him didnt follow, Baron Stuart simply turned around, and without her realizing it, he picked her up in his arms.
Her body was lifted into the air, and Emily finally reacted, her pupils widened as she looked at him, What are you going to do?
Baron Stuart didnt say anything, but carried her to therge bed, and then put her down, You need to rest.
Having said that, he began to carefully cover her with a thin quilt.
Ill leave in a while, Emily sat up, wanting to push away the bedding and get out of bed, but was stopped by him.
Holding her with his deep ck pupils, his tone was gentle but carried an undeniable strong will, Sleep, Ill take you back when the clothes arrive.
Emily paused, and although this man was domineering, she saw love and caring in his shiny ck eyes.
Was he worried about her?
Unconsciously, she chose to trust him and obedientlyy down..

Actually, from the beginning to now, herplexion has been very poor, and Baron Stuart has noticed this, thats why he asked her again and again if shes sure shes okay.
Seeing her lying down obediently, Baron Stuart was satisfied and smiled.N?v(el)B\\jnn
He looked up at her sleeping face, and suddenly thought about how she called out his name during a previous crisis.
Does this mean that he has a different position in this womans heart?
She didnt know how much time had passed when Emily Walker woke up from sleep, frowning as the room was dimly lit.
Just about to get up, she found herself wrapped in a pair of strong arms, unable to move in an instant.
Emily was startled, wondering what time it was now.
She struggled to get up and check the time, but was interrupted by a sexy, deep voice, Sleep.
Listening to the familiar voice, Emily paused and spoke softly, Didnt you say you would take me back?
She remembered that before she slept, he said he would take her back once the clothes arrived. But now, he was the one sleeping on the bed. Hmm. Baron Stuart closed his eyes and responded indifferently.
Hmm? Thats it?
Emily frowned in confusion, wondering what did he mean by hmm? Was he going to take her back or not?
What time is it now? Emily asked again.
I dont know.
I I need to go back now. With that, Emily tried to get up again.
Baron Stuart hadnt been sleeping from the beginning. When he saw her wake up, he simply didnt bother to sleep anymore and suddenly propped himself up on one arm beside her, Cant sleep? How about we chat instead?
Emily looked up, and under the dim light, she could still see his handsome face clearly, Chat about what?
Thats not right. Its not about chatting now; she needs to go back, otherwise her little brother would be worried about her.
Baron Stuart stared at her intently, and after half a moment, he finally spoke,
Whatever happens in the future, the first thing you think of must be me. Emily looked at him, not understanding what he meant by that, What?
You said you were with Adrian Nash, right? So why did you call my name? Every time he thought about her calling his name at that time, Baron Stuart felt very happy.
When he asked her, Emilys face instantly turned red, and she wanted to hide in a hole in the ground.
She didnt know why, but at that time, the only thing she could think of was
his beautiful face. In utter desperation, she called out his name without even thinking it through.
Tell me. Baron Stuarts voice was pressing, wanting to know what was on her mind.
Emilys buried face was immediately pulled up by him.
She was somewhat embarrassed and angry, and removed his hand, muttering quietly, Im not with him.
When he heard this, Baron Stuarts body froze, and a perfect smile appeared on his face.
He hooked her chin, his eyes fixed on her with determination, You are not allowed to be with any other man except me.
Emily didnt argue with his selfish and domineering statement.
He wanted her not to be with other men, but what about him? He could only hide her behind him, never to see the light of day again.
This kind of life was too humiliating, too painful, and too tiring for her.
The next day
Early in the morning, Emily woke up from a deep sleep. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the man by the floor mirror, who was about to put on a light blue shirt at this time.
Looking at the scar on his scap, Emily knew that it was left because of her..

ncing at the time, it was already 7:30 AM, and she needed to get up for work too.
Turning her head to look at the bedside table, as before, her clothes were already prepared when she woke up.
After the two of them washed up, they came to the living room and found that someone had already prepared breakfast.
Having finished breakfast, the two left the Futuren Hotel together.
Outside the building, yton Howard was already there with the car key, waiting.
At this time, Cam Walker, who was passing by the Futuren Hotel, saw this scene from the car.
Stop the car. Early in the morning, she thought she was seeing things, so she hurriedly asked the driver to pull over. When she confirmed that the woman standing at the hotel entrance was Emily Walker, she couldnt help but grind her teeth in anger.
This despicable woman actually sneaked here to see Baron Stuart again; could it be that she stayed herest night?
She knew that Baron Stuart had a private room on the 68th floor.
Baron Stuart took the car key and then got into the white Ferrari with Emily Walker.
Watching the two drive away, Cam Walkers anger caused the corners of her mouth to twitch.
Even yton Howard was kicked out of the car, where were these two going?
Thinking about this, Cam Walker turned her head and looked at the driver in the drivers seat, You get out first.
The driver obediently got out of the car, and Cam Walker quickly started the car and followed Baron Stuarts Ferrari.
Twenty minutester, the car stopped in front of Mansa Photography Company.
Emily Walker looked outside the car window and was about to get out of the Ferrari, but Baron Stuart pulled her back.
She turned her head, somewhat puzzled, and saw his handsome face
approaching slowly. Without any warning, he nted a deep kiss on her lips.
Releasing her lips, his deep voice rang out, If you dont want to be a mistress, then be my girlfriend, Baron Stuart.
Upon hearing this, Emily Walker was stunned, her eyes widened as she looked at him, not understanding his meaning.
Not a mistress but a girlfriend? But doesnt he have Cam?
Youre going to bete if you dont go in now. Baron Stuart smiled and nced at thepany building outside the car window.
Only then did Emily react and hurriedly opened the car door and ran towards thepany building, not having time to guess his words meaning.
Watching her figure disappear in front of thepany building, Baron Stuart smirked with satisfaction and drove away.
The sight of the two kissing only made Cam Walker even angrier.
She always thought that Emily Walker had left with dignity, but unexpectedly, she came back when Cam slightly rxed her guard. Was she really not going to give up until she saw the coffin?
Seeing Baron Stuarts car disappearing, Cam Walker opened the drivers door and strode arrogantly into Mansa Wedding Photography.
On the second floor, Wace Carter was anxiously waiting early in the morning.
Since Emily didnte home all night and her phone couldnt be reached, he was worried to the point of almost calling the police!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Antonio Bailey and Jason were also waiting anxiously nearby.
Sister! The elevator door opened, and Emily walked out. Wace immediately ran over and asked with worry, Where were youst night!?
Seeing her little brothers worried face, Emily knew that he must care a lot about her.
She smiled and said, Im fine.
Then why didnt you answer my calls? He had tried calling her all night, but her phone was turned off.
At that, Emily hesitated.
It must have been that she fell asleepst night, and the man hadnt bothered to wake her up when her little brother called.
My cell phone was out of power. She randomly made up an excuse.

Sister. Seeing that she was fine, Wace also rxed. But he had heard from Antonio about what happenedst night, Are you still with him?
Emily looked up and gazed at her brother who was just taller than her. She knew, he asked this question because he was worried about her.
She silently lowered her head, not knowing how to respond to this question.
Seeing her in difficulty, Wace smiled, Sister, actually Brother Jackie has been quite nice to you.
Adrian Nash was indeed good to them both. Inparison to Baron Stuart, he was hoping more that Emily would be with Jackie. At least, Jackie was sincere towards Emily.
In front of Baron Stuart, his sister was forever known as the mistress or sponsored lover.
Upon hearing this, Emily raised her gaze. She was aware that Adrian Nash was good to her; he was kind to her and Wace.
But
Wace, are we to submit willingly just because others treat us well?
Her words startled him. He did not want Emily to submit herself to Adrian Nash, but he was also hoping for Emily to have a good future.
Sister, I just hope that you Wace tried to exin.
I know you mean well, Emily lowered her head. She did not me him and paused, but, I dont want to confuse affection with obligation.
After that, Emily moved past Wace, preparing to enter the office.
What a nice thing to say, huh! At this moment, a voice filled with sarcasm rang out. Everyone turned to look and immediately spotted Cam Walker at the elevator door.
Emily was a bit surprised at her arrival.
Wace also looked confused at the woman approaching from the other side. He had no idea who she was, but he could tell that she had ill intentions.
Seeing her air of arrogance, Antonio walked over, crossed her arms and impatiently asked, Lady, who are you looking for?
Cam nced coldly at Antonio, not responding to her question and slowly approached Emily with a dark expression on her face.
Emily couldnt help but wonder, was she under surveince day and night? She just encountered Baron Stuart yesterday, and today Cam Walker was already causing her trouble.
p!
Another resounding p echoed. No one expected that Cam, who was slowly approaching Emily, would suddenly p her.
Emily certainly hadnt expected that she would suddenly p her. The whole person was stupefied, her left cheek burning like a fire wound.
Seeing his sister inexplicably pped, Wace, out of anger, pushed Cam away, furiously asking, Why did you p my sister!?
Always proud and arrogant, Cam did not expect anyone to dare shove her. With this push, she lost her bnce and violently hit the left elevator door.
Only a bang was heard. When Cam raised her head, arge bump had appeared on her forehead, which was also bruised.
Everyone watched with eyes wide open. Antonio and Jason, who were standing nearby, clearly did not expect such a scene either.
Cam frowned in pain, touching her own painful forehead. Seeing this situation, she widened her eyes immediately!
She turned her head, her angry gaze directly on Emily and Wace, You dare to hit me?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
You were the one who hit first! Wace seemed to not let it go. He was about to charge at Cam Walker, but was stopped by Emily in time..

Wace!
Wace turned his head and saw the fingerprints on his sisters face, his heart aching for her.
Whats wrong with me hitting her!? She shamelessly seduced my fianc, dont I even have the right to hit her! Cam Walker stood up and righteously pointed at the two of them!
Fianc? Wace was taken aback. Could she be Cam Walker?n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Even if she was, it was still wrong to bully his sister!
Its reallyughable. You cant even control your own fianc, what right do you have to hit my sister!? Wace retorted.
Cam Walker was speechless with anger, unable to speak. You
What you? I heard that Baron Stuart doesnt even like you, right? Youre just his nominal fiance at best. What right do you have to hit Emily Walker!? As far as I know, Baron Stuart actually likes Emily Walker, and youPfft, youre just a name on paper.
Antonio Bailey, who was beside Emily, couldnt help but speak up for her disdainfully.
Actually, she didnt know whether Baron Stuart liked Emily or not. However, seeing Cams shrewish appearance, she naturally wanted to find some words to upset her!
She wasnt sure whether Baron Stuart liked Emily or not, but from the engagement report, she knew that Baron Stuart was forced into the engagement by the Old Master of the Stuart Family and that they hadnt even exchanged engagement rings.
Thinking of this, Antonio sneered and asked, By the way, I heard that Baron Stuart didnt even buy you an engagement ring, right?
Antonios words undoubtedly hit Cams sore spot. That was what she cared about the most. Not to mention the engagement ring, even now, Baron Stuart still wore his tinum single ring.
Thats my business, its none of your concern! Cam Walker roared angrily,pletely losing the demeanor of a youngdy.
Antonio scoffed, Pfft, who has the mind to care about your trifling matters? Im just kindly reminding you that although you are Baron Stuarts fiance in name, has he acknowledged you? Youd better be careful and not do anything demeaning, lest Baron Stuart gets displeased and throws you Antonio paused before raising a deeply mocking smile, and continued, word by word, Out, on, the, street!
If it werent for the power of the Stuart Family, such a hasty engagement ceremony would be denied everywhere, right?
But then again, as long as the Stuart Family said they were engaged, they were engaged. No one dared to gossip or criticize, and who would risk offending the powerful Stuart Family over such trivial details?
You! Cam Walker was so angry she couldnt find the words. She had never been so humiliated her entire life, and she was furious!
At this moment, her cell phone rang.
She looked at the caller ID, and it was her mother, Ang Reid, calling. Only then did Cam realize her loss of dignity and calmed herself down to answer the phone.
Cam, why havent you arrived yet? Ang Reids gentle voice came through the phone. She and her husband had been waiting for their daughter for a long time and couldnt help but worry as she still hadnt arrived.
Cam nced at Antonio and Wace in front of her, ready to say something, but a sudden idea shed in her mind, as if she had thought of a n.
She didnt believe that thebined power of the Stuart and Bailey Families couldnt drive Emily Walker away!
Ill be there right away.
After hanging up the phone, Cam Walker red fiercely at the three of them before turning around and leaving the photographypany..

A Luxury Jewellery Mall, Couple Reid is waiting for Cam Walker in the VIP room.
It will be the Stuart Familys Elder Ladys birthday in a few days, and the Walker Family Members didnt know what kind of gift to choose. So, they called their daughter, who, being a girl herself, might have some suggestions.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
At this time, Ang Reid and her husband were admiring a few gold diamond brooches when the door of the VIP room was pushed open. They couldnt help but look up.
Cam, youre here Ang Reid raised her head only to discover arge bruise on her forehead. Startled, she quickly got up and went to her daughter.
Worried, she asked, Cam, what happened to your forehead?
With a wronged look on her face, Cam Walker burst into tears before she could even speak. Mom I got beaten up
As she spoke, she threw herself into Ang Reids arms and sobbed bitterly.
Ang Reid was taken aback. Before she could react, Baxter Walker had quickly stood up and asked incredulously, What!? You were beaten up?
This was unprecedented. Although the Walker Family was not as prominent as the Stuart Family, they were not to be offended by ordinary people in E City. With teary eyes, Cam Walker looked at her father and nodded, Yes!
Ang Reid, who knew her daughters temperament well, feared that her pride might have caused her to offend someone, leading to this trouble. Cam, did you say something excessive to someone else?
Although her daughter was haughty, Ang Reid couldnt help but feel heartache now that her daughter had been beaten up. After all, she only had one daughter.
I didnt. I just
Tell your dad who hit you. Ill stand up for you! Baxter Walker wasnt particrly indulgent towards his daughter, but as his daughter, she absolutely couldnt be beaten up for no reason.
It was that woman outside of Baron Stuart! Cam Walker held back her tears and looked at her father with anger in her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Baxter Walkers face changed dramatically, and he stared at his daughter incredulously, What? The woman outside of Baron Stuart?
Ang Reid was also obviously shocked by her daughters words. Although she was very clear that Baron Stuart didnt like her daughter, they were already engaged. She didnt expect that Baron Stuart, who had always maintained a clean reputation and had no scandalous news in the past, would actually have a woman on the side.
Cam, are you telling the truth? Ang Reid worried that her daughter might have made up the story out of spite.
Cam Walker turned her head, looking somewhat dissatisfied at her mother, Mom, dont you believe me?
Ang Reid was silent, only looking at her daughter with worry.
Maybe Ive been too proud since I was young, but this is true. If you dont believe it, you can ask him in person. Even Aunt Stuart has known about this for a long time
Cam Walker turned away. In fact, she was the biggest victim. She had never been acknowledged as Baron Stuarts fiancee, and now that this news might be public knowledge, it would be the same as Baron Stuart denying her as his fiancee in front of everyone.
What? Madam Foster knows too? Baxter Walker was somewhat displeased, and his expression darkened.
He didnt expect that even though the two families were engaged, the Stuart Family would allow Baron Stuart to be involved in such a scandalous affair.
Yes, thest time Baron Stuart had an ident, it was because of that woman.. Aunt Stuart had originally kicked her out, but who knew that when I passed by the Futuren Hotel early this morning, that woman walked out of the Futuren Hotel with Baron Stuart!

Dad, you should know, they were in Baron Stuarts private room all night, so what do you think theming out early in the morning means? The more Cam Walker spoke, the angrier she became. Every time she recalled the image of the two people kissing in the car that morning, she wished she could tear Emily Walker apart!
She and Baron Stuart had grown up together, but let alone kisses, he had never been willing to even touch her hand.
Then, I found that woman and wanted her to stop pestering Stuart, but she actually let her friend humiliate me and pushed me down, Cam pointed to the wound on her forehead, This happened because they pushed me and I hit the elevator door.n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
As Cam spoke, she gritted her teeth in secret, not believing that she couldnt drive Emily away from Stuarts side.
She knew her father well. Since she had suffered such an injury, he would definitely confront the Stuart Family on her behalf.
Baxter Walker was a prideful man. His only daughter would never be allowed to suffer in vain, no matter what the circumstances. Especially when the opponent was just a mistress!
Lets go to the Stuarts house right now.
After finishing his words, Baxter Walker left the jewelry shop with the mother and daughter duo, no longer interested in picking out a birthday gift.
Hearing her fathers words, Cam secretly smirked.
At 5:30 PM, people in thepany were still leaving work, and Emily Walker was no exception. She gathered her things and went with her brother to the elevator.
After a days time, the fingerprints on her face had faded without a trace.
Sis, dont hang out with Baron Stuart from Futuren Group anymore, said Wace Carter, heartbroken to see what his sister endured today.
At this moment, the elevator door opened, and Emily stepped out.
She knew her brother was worried that she might run into simr problems in the future.
I know, Emily smiled, trying not to let her little brother worry about her. The two exited thepany building and headed for the bus station.
Just then, they heard a honking sound not far away.
Both of them stopped and turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound.
A sapphire blue Bugatti sports car was there, with a manzily sitting in the drivers seat. He opened the car door and got out after seeing them stop.
When Baron Stuart removed his brown CHOPARD sunsses, his smooth linen-colored short hair and charming features attracted the attention of passersby.
Seeing him, Emily froze, not understanding why the man would appear here at this time.
Wace, who was standing next to her, didnt have any good feelings about the man. Even though his condition improved so quickly, it had a lot to do with Baron Stuart, but thinking about how this man had humiliated his sister, he couldnt bring himself to appreciate him.
He pulled Emily behind him, who was still in astonishment, and then turned to look at Baron Stuart expressionlessly, his voice cold, Please dont bother my sister anymore.
Baron Stuart stopped, narrowed his eyes, and then hooked the corner of his lips coldly, Bothering her is my business, and its none of your concern, he said lightly.
His tone was light, and his lips seemed to be smiling, but there was an undeniable air of nobility that made people afraid.
Even Wace, who didnt like the man, had to admit that he was a king-like figure.
At a loss for words, Wace couldnt fight against the powerful Baron Stuart.
Emily pushed her brother aside and walked out, always maintaining a distance of one meter from Stuart.
Her expression had be colder than before, What are you here for?

Seeing her, Baron Stuart seductively curved his lips into a degree of charm,Come dine with me.
Emily Walkers face sank unhappily, Thanks, but I dont need it. She finished speaking and was about to take hold of Wace Carter to leave.
