Archie’s fury was written on his face, causing James to feel slightly worried. He quickly told him what he had heard by chance.
“Young master, don’t be angry. I heard something at Civada. It might have something to do with Miss Emma’s change.” James heard it in the elevator. He was also shocked at that time, but he didn’t dare to make wild guesses.
“What is it?” Archie narrowed his eyes.
“I heard a few employees in the elevator talking about old master going to Civada to find her today. Could it be that old master told Miss Emma something that changed her temperament?”
“Grandfather looked for her? Why didn’t you say so earlier?” Archie gave him a somewhat resentful look.
Cold sweat broke out on James’s back. “Sorry, young master. I didn’t have time to say it before you got angry.”
Only then did Archie calm down from his anger. He rubbed his forehead with a headache. “Now it seems that grandpa must have said something to her.”
“Could it be that old master advised Miss Emma to leave you?”
“Other than this possibility, I’m afraid that my grandfather will not look for her because of other things.” Archie made a very firm guess.
“Miss Emma should be very loyal to young master. Why would she suddenly be cold and heartless to you just because of a few words of advice from old master? Could it be that. . . Miss Emma took old master’s money. . .”
“Do you think she would betray me for money?” Archie refused to accept this fact. He felt that love was priceless.
James immediately laughed dryly. “Young master, I was just guessing. I don’t know what exactly happened.”
“Humph, I believe my judgment is not so bad. Emma would not leave me for money.” Archie said very arrogantly.
“If it was not about money, then why? Miss Emma seemed to have really changed into a different person.” James sighed. He really could not figure it out.
“Maybe the coldness is because of her appearance. In her heart, she still cares about me. What did my grandfather say to her?” Archie’s eyes gradually narrowed, and for a moment, his heart was in chaos.
“Why don’t we wait a little later when Miss Emma is here. You can ask her in detail.” James saw young master’s confused look and quickly advised him in a low voice.
Archie could only listen to his advice and not think too much.
That’s right, only when he saw her would he be able to ask her clearly.
Looking at the sky outside the window, he could only hope that the sky would quickly turn dark.
Emma got off work and walked out of Civada’s main door. She found that driver, who usually took her to work, was sitting in the car waiting for her.
Emma’s heart ached slightly.
“Miss Emma, Young Master Archie already told me to send you home safely!” driver said sincerely.
Emma sighed. Why was Archie still willing to send a chauffeur to pick her up?
Could it be that what she said today was not enough? to make him give up?
That shirt that she accidentally left at home did not make him angry?
“Thank you!” Emma did not have any other place to go, so she just sat in driver’s car and went home first.
That home was also given to her by Archie. Although she didn’t live for a long time, it also carried her happiness and memories.
She was afraid that she couldn’t stay any longer. She had to find another place to stay.
Actually, Emma did not lack money now. She had a balance of nearly 100 million in a card.
Even though that money was saved by Archie from time to time, Emma could still take it out and use it urgently. Her salary was also included in it.
Emma returned home and sat blankly in the darkness.
In a day, her life was completely changed again.
What should she do next? Should she keep a distance from Archie?
The bitterness in her heart continued to spread. In the end, Emma still silently helped herself pack up a pack.
Furthermore, she decided to find a new place to stay tomorrow, a place that had nothing to do with Archie.
Around nine o’clock at night, Emma heard the sound of the door opening and was shocked.
Who would come at this time?
Could it be that James came back to help Archie get something?
“Why didn’t you turn on the light?” Suddenly, Emma heard a familiar voice that could not be more familiar.
It was Archie!
Oh my god, Emma sat on the sofa in a daze. She only felt that the light above her head was instantly turned on. Her sadness had nowhere to hide.
“Archie? Why did you come back? Shouldn’t you be in the hospital?” Emma was stunned. Archie had actually appeared in front of her house.
Archie was wearing a suit. If it were not for his stiff movements, she would not have been able to tell that he had been injured.
“Explain to me, which wild man did this shirt belong to?” Archie held the shirt in his hand and approached her step by step.
Emma quickly straightened her expression and stood up from the sofa.
Seeing the angry resentment in Archie’s eyes, she quickly looked away and calmed her emotions before replying, “Not some wild man. It was a male friend of mine who lent it to me to wear.”
“Your male friend? Jimmy? Have you forgotten what you promised me? I won’t allow you to have any more contact with him, but you dare to ignore my words?” Archie became even angrier, and his tone became even heavier as he condemned her.
Emma did not dare to drag his anger onto Jimmy, so she quickly shook her head. “Of course it’s not his. I don’t just have one male friend.”
“He is not the only one? Emma, it seems that you have hidden it very well. How many more things behind the scenes that I don’t know about?” Archie’s tall body instantly forced her to the corner of the wall.
Emma had nowhere to retreat. She could only stand straight on the arm of the wall. Her eyes were slightly cold. “Archie, don’t dare to run around at this time. Go back to the hospital. If you have anything to say, we will talk after you recover.”
“You don’t want to answer my call. Don’t tell me you don’t want to see me even if I come to find you?” Archie reached out one hand and placed it heavily beside her ear. Due to the injury, it was difficult to raise the other arm, but Emma was still trapped by him.
“I didn’t say I wouldn’t see you.” Emma explained in a panic.
“Did my grandfather look for you today? What did he say to you? Why did you suddenly become so cold to me?” Archie’s tone suddenly became gentle, and he no longer had the same anger as before.
Emma held her breath. So Archie knew that his grandfather had come to find her?
“He didn’t say anything. He just told me not to disturb your recovery.” Emma felt extremely guilty.
“That’s really obedient. If he told you not to come, you really wouldn’t come? In your heart, I have no status?” As Archie spoke, his thin lips were already at the tip of her ear. The heat that came out from his mouth made Emma’s heart panic.
“Archie, your grandfather is right. If you are with me, it will be a disaster. Why don’t we separate for some time and calm down? Think about what kind of life is better for us.” Emma finally said out the words in her heart.
“Disaster?” Archie’s eyes were frozen and his tone was hurt. “Emma, when you fall in love with me, it can only be described as disaster to you. When did I, Archie, become so unbearable?”
Emma knew that Archie misunderstood her words, but she also did not want to explain.
“Your grandfather really cares about you. Your safety concerns the entire Grafton Family. Archie, let’s not continue to love each other like this, alright? Just treat it as thinking for the Grafton Family and me.” Emma spoke in a somewhat discouraged manner. Her intention to back off was obvious.
Archie looked at her in shock. That bright and beautiful face of his was at a loss at this moment.
He suddenly reached out his hand and grabbed her chin. His eyes stared at her sad little face. “Emma, who allowed you to give up just like that? I don’t agree. Listen to me clearly. I will never agree to let you go.”
“Archie, don’t you understand? If we are together, you will not be blessed. My identity as the youngest daughter of Sandford Family has not been made public yet. Once the news spread one day. . .? a brother-in-law are entangled with a woman. How should I end this? Can you bear such a scandal?” Emma had always made herself try her best to ignore the relationship between their identities. But she knew that it was not indifference. This relationship did not exist.
“I’m not afraid. I don’t care if you’re the Sandford Family’s youngest daughter or not. I only want you. Emma, fall in love with me. Are you afraid?” Archie would not shrink back, but no matter how much criticism he had to bear, he would not let go of her.
Since they were entangled, they would continue to entangle with each other for generations to come.
Emma was stunned. Her entire body trembled continuously. Was she afraid?
What was there to be afraid of?
She was afraid because he would get hurt and be implicated.
“Archie, calm down. Maybe we are just having a moment of passion right now.” Emma could no longer indulge herself and accompany him without caring about anything else. She really had some concerns.
If she and Archie continued to entangle with each other like this, if she really angered Old Master Grafton, she would not want to see any punishment be given to Archie.
“Excitement? Don’t tell me that you are just indulging in a moment of passion when you are with me.” Archie couldn’t believe it.
Emma shook her head, bit her lower lip, and tried hard to explain something. “No, that’s not what I meant. I just want to say that we need to calm down now.”
“You are leaving me. How can I calm down? Emma, not everyone can be as carefree as you.” Archie was completely hurt. His little face, which was calmer than his, was locked. It was so delicate and cute, but it was full of ruthlessness.
Emma’s beautiful eyes were beating hard, and her breathing gradually calmed down. “Archie. Just take it that I can’t love a noble family like you, a young master. In the past, I used to love a noble family like you but it’s not the right door and now I can finally be on par with you, but my identity is messed up, and maybe it’s destined to be. . .”
Emma did not even finish her sentence when the lip was forcefully snatched away by the man.
The man’s lips were overbearing to the point that there was not a trace of leeway. He fiercely bit her lip, as if wanting to make her feel pain and wake up!
