Speed Candles

Chapter 7 Unavoidable Confrontation

Emily also knew that she could get half the battle if she could make him happy today, but the man in

front of her was really disgusting. She had no choice but to bite the bullet, picked up the glass of wine

in front of her, and drank it.

“Miss Morris is a really good drinker. I think we would get drunk after a while.” Mr. Gray sitting opposite

said with a smile. He kept staring at Emily’s low-cut collar.

After drinking this glass, Emily could feel something really strange. She felt so giddy and couldn’t exert

her strength at all. She couldn’t even lift her hand up to stop Mr. Fox.

Mr. Fox was the bellwether among all the people in this room. They all needed to submit themselves to

his direction. Some of them saw Mr. Fox was winking at them, so they all got up to leave.

Emily felt nervous all of a sudden. This bastard must have added some drug in her glass. Feeling

things were in a bad way, she used all her strength to push the fat hand off her back.

Mr. Fox noticed what she did just now, so he stopped pretending to cater to her and became atrocious.

He pulled Emily to the sofa, “You bitch want to go even after entering my room? Where do you want to

go?”

“Fuck off.”

Emily kicked him on his round beer belly and wanted to get up.

Mr. Fox was chubby. He fell down on the ground after being kicked by Emily. He covered his belly with

one hand, and dragged her with the other.

Emily’s left shoe was pulled off by him. He stretched out his hand to pull her hair again. Emily could feel

her head hurt a lot.

“Bang…” The wine on the table was brought down by her and spilled all over the ground. She also fell

down.

Mr. Fox viciously squeezed her throat and slapped her on the face. He cursed her, “You are just a bitch.

Everyone can fuck you with money. Why are you pretending to be innocent now? Two years ago, you

even ruined your sister’s marriage…”

Emily tried her best to pick up the high heel on the ground, and then smashed them on Mr. Fox’s head,

“Ah…” Mr. Fox’s head started to bleed. The blood came down the forehead.

“You fucking deserve it. How dare you say that to me?” When he was suffering great pain, Emily cursed

him, and then rushed out.

D Restaurant was famous for its maze-like design, which was also the reason why the gang wanted to

lure her here. She went back and forth a few times, but still couldn’t find the exit.

“Mr. Fox is hurt by that woman. The police will be here soon. You send some people to catch her.” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“She poisoned her father just for getting money two years ago. This time, she must bear all the

consequences.”

The drug had taken effect. Emily’s vision was blurred, and her legs were becoming more and more

weak. She could hear Mr. Fox’s lackeys chasing after her all the way.

She looked up and saw that the VIP room in front of her was open. At ordinary times, people were not

allowed to enter into that room. No matter how influential Mr. Fox was, he didn’t dare to offend the man

in that room.

Emily decided to take the chance. She took off her dress as soon as she walked into that room. Then

she saw two familiar people in front of her. The woman was Hope, who led her to take the interview

that day, and the man was…Sebastian.

Hope was in a working uniform, with a suit, loose pants, matched with the stiletto. Sebastian was only

wearing a dark blue bathrobe. They both had folders in their hands, as if they were talking about work.

Because of her sudden arrival, they both felt surprised. Emily never thought that she would meet

Sebastian in this room. She couldn’t ask him to help her, so she could only keep silent.
