Emma had never thought that Emily, who was as proud as a peacock, would actually ask for her help. She still used this kind of submissive tone.
“Yes, I beg you to put in a good word for my mother and tell Grandfather not to force her to divorce my father.” In Emily’s eyes, There was sadness and anxiety in her eyes.
Emma’s brows slightly knitted. “Why should I help you? Besides, You saw that day, your mother laid glass slag on the floor and hurt me. Was what I said a lie?”
Emily was unable to refute. Actually, after she quarreled with Emma in the living room that day, she also went upstairs. When she saw the bloodstains on the floor, she was somewhat shocked.
“My mother did indeed injure you, but she already knows that she was wrong. In any case, you are a member of the Quinsley Family, even though you have now become the daughter of the Vice President. Please don’t let the Quinsley Family disperse just because my parents have raised you for so many years, alright?” Emily thought of her mother’s desperate look. She finally understood what fear and uneasiness meant.
Emma saw that Emily was actually so worried that her tears even fell. She knew that she also sincerely came to beg her this time.
“Why did you come to beg me? Didn’t you hate me for snatching Archie?” Emma mocked him.
When Emily heard Archie’s name, a deep pain flashed across her eyes, “I have always known. Even if you hadn’t appeared, Archie wouldn’t have really married me. I have always hated you, but I am not willing to accept it. I know that I’m too selfish, and I’ve always liked to bully you since I was young. At that time, I was young and insensible, but now that I’ve grown up, I know… The bad things I’ve done to you in the past were truly the results of my failed education.”
Emma had never dared to hope that Emily would lower her proud head, but at this moment when she said those words, her true feelings were revealed and it was obvious that she was repenting.
“How do you know that if I go and beg grandpa, he will let you go?” Emma sighed and her tone was no longer as cold as before.
Emily, the granddaughter of Quinsley Family, was useless even if she begged. She was afraid that Emma too would not be of any use.
“Grandfather values you so much now. He will definitely listen to you.” Emily originally wanted to receive Emma’s humiliation in order to resolve this matter.
But what surprised her was that Emma did not make things too difficult for her.
Emma’s expression became slightly more serious. “I promise to help your mother plead for mercy, but please go back and tell your mother that if she dares to play tricks on me next time, I will not forgive her for the rest of my life.”
After Emily got the result she wanted, her expression immediately became happier. She promised, “After my mother was taught a lesson this time, she will definitely not dare to do bad things again. Don’t worry.”
“Alright, you can go out first. I will call grandpa later.”
Emily then turned around and left.
Walking out of the design department, Emily’s mood was touched. Before Emma married Archie, although she and Emma could not be as close as sisters, they could not talk to each other.
But ever since the ruined wedding, there was some distance between the two of them. They would pinch each other every time they met.
During this period of time, her life had been very dark… Now, because of the divorce between her parents, she had been dealt a blow. She truly felt the deep malice that came from life.
But just now, when she went to plead with Emma.
Not knowing if it was because her office was too bright or her words made Emily feel a trace of warmth, she suddenly felt that her life was no longer that dark.
It turned out that the feeling of getting along with a person with a good character was actually as relaxed as a spring breeze.
Jimmy liked Emma. Did he also like this kind of relaxed and happy feeling?
Emily seemed to have her aperture opened by something and suddenly wanted to get rid of the dark days of the past. Like Emma, she actively faced life with an optimistic attitude.
When she truly became better, would Jimmy look at her a few more times?
Emily could be considered to have some fame in Civada now. Her main role in a youth idol drama seemed to be as popular as ever.
However, in a place where women fought the most intensely, Emily did not dare to take herself too seriously.
Seeing a few big shots that were even more famous than her passing by, she immediately went forward to greet them as if she wanted to curry favor with them and get familiar with them.
“Emily!” Suddenly, a voice called out to Emily. Emily turned her head and took a look. It was actually Emma’s best friend, Tasya.
Tasya’s dream in the past was to be a big star. Now, she did not know what kind of luck she had. She actually made a name for herself in Civada and could not help but get selected as the female lead for a few big blockbusters. She also endorsed many advertisements and seemed to want to become a big shot.
She had heard from others that she had gone to see Civada’s boss Yoseph a few times. The recent dramas and endorsements she had received had a lot to do with Yoseph.
Emily was also a smart person. Of course, she knew that Tasya was relying on Emma behind her back. It was through Emma that she had the opportunity to get close to Yoseph.
When she thought of this, Emily could not help but feel a little jealous of her.
In the past, Emily did not buy Tasya’s account but now that she was in the limelight, she could not keep a cold face.
“It’s you. I heard that you have been developing very well recently. Congratulations, you are really lucky!” Tasya was wearing a snow-white mink skin and her long hair was tied up in front of her chest. She had a tall figure and a curvy appearance. Her temperament was becoming more and more graceful.
“Are you free? Come to my side and sit down to have a good chat. Anyway, we are in the same industry.” Tasya said lightly.
Emily originally wanted to go home. After all, the house was still in a mess. But since Tasya had already invited her, she had no choice but to go. She could only nod her head. “Okay.”
Tasya now had six assistants by her side, and her lounge was next door to a big star.
Furthermore, this lounge was beautifully decorated, very spacious, and had a good view.
Emily secretly gritted her teeth. Sure enough, the higher her position, the better the treatment.
Tasya got the assistant to make a cup of coffee for the two of them and brought it over. Tasya crossed her legs and revealed the brand new high heels that she had just endorsed. It was said that it had not been listed yet but Tasya was already wearing it.
Emily secretly sized up the other party and found that not only were the shoes she was wearing the latest model, even the few big brand bags behind her were also limited edition. There was also the diamond necklace on her chest and the bracelet on her wrist. Almost all of them were luxury goods.
Why did this woman suddenly become so rich?
In the past when she was friends with Emma, she was still full of poverty.
Comparisons were simply infuriating.
Emily was hit hard. She felt that in the time she had wasted, everyone had surpassed her.
With such a blow and comparison, Emily swore that she would never look at money again. She would never die of drunkenness because of any feelings. Otherwise, she would only be at the same place at the end of the day, while others would be at the top of the world.
“Let’s drink and see. This coffee is a very expensive brand.” Tasya seemed to have done it on purpose and wanted to suppress Emily at every turn.
It was also true that when she and Emma had argued before, Emily had also rolled her eyes quite a bit.
Everyone was dark and had the intention to take revenge.
Even if this grudge was formed from a very long distance, once there was a chance, she still wanted to retaliate.
Emily looked at the color of the coffee and felt that it was definitely delicious. Furthermore, just by smelling the burnt fragrance, it was already considered a treasure.
But!
Tasya deliberately mentioned that it was very expensive and she suddenly did not want to drink it anymore. No matter how expensive it was, if it was compared, it would make people feel that it was tasteless.
“If you have nothing else to do, I have to go home. My mother is sick. I have to go back and take care of her.” Emily felt like she had been played like a monkey. She immediately could not sit still and wanted to leave.
Tasya suddenly opened her mouth and said, “The reaction of the youth drama you were playing was not bad. Do you want to play another role?”
Emily was stunned and did not know what she meant by this.
Indeed, once her drama was completed, she would not be able to catch up and would immediately become an idle person. If she could not find the next script, the popularity that she had worked so hard to get would once again be drowned out.
“Tasya, what do you mean by this?” She knew that Tasya always got the best script. Furthermore, they were all female characters. If she could help introduce them… In that movie, her character would definitely have a chance.
Tasya smiled very seductively. “I don’t mean anything else. The director has been looking for an actress for the third female lead recently and is worried about not finding a good one. When I saw you just now, I suddenly felt that you are very suitable.”
“Which movie are you talking about?” Emily asked curiously.
“The Medical Consort Under Heaven!”
Emily’s entire body shook violently. Medical Consort Under Heaven was a very popular IP ancient costume drama recently. It was already popular before filming. If she could take on another role in it, then her popularity would definitely soar.
Emily’s expression was a little happy. “Tasya, at least we have some friendship. Can you come in front of the director and say a few good words for me?”
“Of course I will say something good. But… Do you know that the director needs to personally audition?” Tasya suddenly covered her mouth and laughed.
Emily was shocked by this sentence and her face turned pale.
“Think about it. If you really want to act, this opportunity will be yours. Of course, if you don’t want to audition, I have other things to ask you for help with.” Tasya said with a mysterious expression.
“What do you want me to help you with?” Emily was shocked.
“I broke off relations with Emma, do you know?” This sentence shocked Emily.
“How could this be? Aren’t you all best friends? How could you cut ties?”
Tasya’s face flushed with resentment. “What counts as the best? Is snatching the man that other people like counted?”
Emily was shocked. Could it be that Emma actually competed with Tasya for Yoseph?
