Chapter 164 The Exhortation
Chapter 164 The Exhortation
Emily found Mike on the rooftop of the building, just as what Vincent had said. Mike was feeling loneliness on the rooftop instead of enjoying the pleasure on the top.
Emily walked towards him.
"Emily......"
"Keep an eye on Murphy these days."
"What?" Mike frowned, seemingly confused why she said so.
"The day before yesterday, Murphy and I overheard something. She might care about it very much and wouldn't take any action. But I'm afraid that it might be in danger if she is curious about it."
Although Emily had persuaded Murphy not to mind what they had heard, it was very likely that Murphy wouldn't wait quietly. Emily thought of the time when they met with Murphy, who had been ready to protect her with the stick without any hesitation at that time.
Murphy was so innocent and fearless that she would be put in danger without hesitation. Emily didn't want to see that happen. Originally, Emily had wanted to remind Zoey to pay attention to Murphy, but now there was a more suitable person, wasn't there?
"What did you hear in Yun house?" Mike easily got the point.
"I have asked people to investigate the past of the Yun family. No matter what you find or what you guess, don't tell Brian. I have my own plan." Said Emily seriously.
Mike nodded. He knew that Emily would not hurt Brian, but protect him.
"Murphy is a nice girl. Don't miss her!" Emily said flatly.
Mike wasn't surprised that she could see through his mind. He knew Emily was a sensitive woman and it was understandable that she sensed.
"I don't deserve her." This was the only thing Mike could say.
"The love has nothing to do with deserving. It's just a matter of feelings. Think about it. If you have the courage to see her going into the arms of another man, I won't say anything more. But, Mike, do you have it?" Emily patted his shoulder and left with a smile.
Mike asked himself if he had the courage. He didn't know, but he could only insist. Looking at Mike's tall and strong back, Emily wanted to see how long he could hold on.
In the evening, the news about what had happened in France came to the ears of Emily and Brian. When they both received the phone call, they had almost hung up the phone at the same time after they finished eating and went back home.
"I didn't expect you are well-informed, Mr. Yun." Emily knew that Brian must pay attention to France, but she didn't expect that they would get the news at the same time. Emily was lying on the couch.
The reason why she could be so timely was that she had Zoey and John behind her. However, who was behind Brian? Brian had never hidden anything about this force. Emily knew that if she asked, Brian would tell her, but she didn't want to ask and wanted to investigate by herself. After all, it was a challenge, wasn't it?
Sometimes the others really didn't understand what was going on in Emily's mind. She could figure it out with a few words, but she had to figure it out by herself. But her endurance was impressive.
"The same news for you." Brian also sat on the sofa.
"This time, what the Heavenly Shadow did was really impressive. It's really strange to do this in front of the Locke family." When Brian sat down, Emily lay her head on his lap.
"Why do I feel that you are very happy?" Said Emily with a faint smile.
"Of course, I would like to see that the Locke family is in trouble, but I also like the way the Heavenly Shadow dealing with things."
"It seems that you really admire them." Brian said indifferently.
Emily put aside the magazine she had just read, "They are bold enough and always act arrogantly. They punish one as a warning to others, but they have their own principles. I always like such kind of people."
"Yes, you do. They resemble you a lot." Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
"With me?" Tilting her head to one side, Emily thought for a while when looking at Brian. She really looked like them. But there were a lot of people who were alike in actions. Was the boss of the Heavenly Shadow her relative? That should be impossible. Emily didn't think much as she was back to read the magazine again.
But Brian didn't think so. This time, his son disappeared coincidentally. Not to mention that when he investigated Emily, the information on Charles seemed to confirm something in many other ways.
"I'm sure that the Locke clan will not be reconciled this time." Brian said.
"Of course, the Locke family was blasted up, and they lost their reputation. If they are willing to accept it, then what else can they do? If they fight against the Heavenly Shadow, they will not get any benefit." Said Emily while reading the magazine intently.
"I'm afraid they are not in the mood to do that now. They are unable to deal with the situation, but to some extent, they have messed it up. For the once powerful forces of the French, even the Heavenly Shadow could do such a thing. Naturally, it also has a warning effect for the Locke family."
"Yo, Mr. Yun, you seem to know a lot about such things."
"And you are not bad either."
"Come on!" Emily continued to read the magazine. It was rare to see that she was so interested in it. Brian glanced at it, which was a magazine about fashion and jewelry.
"Do you want to buy jewelry?" In the past, Emily had never paid attention to such things. But today, she was interested in it.
"You know that I don't like wearing accessories. This one is enough." Emily shook her wrist. There was the bracelet that was bought by Charles at the auction when Emily and Brian first met. So she had been wearing it around that wrist all the time.
With a smile on his face, Brian answered, "Yes, it is a perfect match with you."
"Of course I am. I'm a charming lady, and I think I can deserve everything. By the way, have you taken the T-shirt that Murphy bought for Charles? "
"Yes, I put it in Charles' room. I also put yours in our room." Brian could see that Emily loved that T-shirt very much. Although this T-shirt could be seen everywhere in the shops, it meant a lot to Emily after all.
Emily had been accustomed to Brian's meticulous care. When she was browsing through a magazine, she happened to see the watch that she found when shopping today. On impulse, she handed it to Brian and asked, "How is it?"
Brian took it over and had a look. It was painted in black and white and looked pretty good. He said, "It's good."
"Do you take a fancy to it?"
"Would you buy me one?"
"The CEO of the World International should not lack a wristwatch, right?"
"Yes, you are right. But this one that you sent is different from those."
Calmly, Emily took the magazine back and continued to read it. "I'd better save some money for you, Mr. Yun. Besides, this one can only be found in Switzerland. It's not easy for me to buy it."
Brian just smiled. There was still disappointment in his eyes, but he didn't say much to Emily.
While reading the magazine, Emily looked at Brian and smiled proudly.
The next morning, after Emily just woke up, she called Charles, "Charles, how is it going?"
"Mommy, don't you feel ashamed to wake a child up like this? I will be very sad if you ignore me because of Mr. Yun. If I am sad, I won't do anything."
"Well, if you don't help me, I will fly there by myself. But I don't know what will happen to your treasures in your room."
Tears almost streamed down Charles' face. "Mommy, your baby doesn't have a special place in your heart, doesn't he?" he asked.
"No, you've always been in my heart." Although Emily did sound emotionless, she couldn't stand it anymore.
"For mommy's sake, I'm going to do it now."
"All right. Bye."
Then, Charles stared at the phone that had been hung up and burst into tears again. He wondered whether he was really dumped. The only response he got was some shouts. Jim dashed towards him.
"Who are you calling so early?" Brian woke up and asked.
"Charles, I ask him when to come back?" Emily replied in a low voice.
Brian was confused, but he didn't ask.
Emily was looking forward to getting that watch all the day. It was rare for her to be in such a good mood, so it was quite easy for her to deal with the work.
When Alice came to take the shift, she was surprised to see that Emily was in such an undisguised mood. "What funny thing has happened, Miss?"
"Of course there is something interesting. By the way, Alice, is your vacation over?"
"Yes." Alice replied coldly.
"Oh, does anything happen during your vacation?"
"What are you expecting, Miss?" Alice asked coldly.
"Nothing. I just heard that after you asked for leave, Vincent was absent-minded for the whole day and then no one knows where he went."
"Does his disappearance have anything to do with me?"
"No, I just thought of it accidentally," said Emily with a smile.
Alice didn't say anything, but somehow was touched, which could be seen from her expression. Emily was amused. But Alice would never tell the truth that she was blocked outside several times by Vincent. Vincent was not the only one who was embarrassed and she felt ashamed too.
"Since you are here, can I leave?" Then Emily stood up.
"When do you plan to make your identity public?"
"What's wrong? I don't care if my identity is public. You are here with Fern."
Alice gave a cold glance at Emily and said, "Let some people who are stupid see that there is someone behind you."
What Alice said was interesting, which made Emily immediately realize who she was referring to, "What did Selina do again?" There was only one person who dared to challenge her in this city.
"I happened to see that she was close to Ray. Take care of yourself."
