Emma walked out of the coffee shop and was still unable to calm down for a long time. Actually, when Luisa took the blade to cut her pulse just now, she was also shocked.
However, this time, she did not soften her heart. She did not forgive her evil deeds because of her self-harm.
Thinking of the last time when she was frightened, Emma felt it. Luisa cutting her wrist was really not considered an act of apology. At most, it was a path of retreat that she had prepared for herself when she was at the end of her rope.
Trying to use death to threaten her forgiveness was really looking down on her. Why didn’t she be a bit more benevolent back then and let her go?
Ten minutes later, the ambulance arrived. Luisa was sent to the hospital.
The doctor did a check on her and found that her wound was not deep, but she still sutured three stitches.
Minlan sat by the bedside and looked at Luisa’s sluggish appearance. Her heart was anxious and uneasy as she advised, “Luisa, why did you do such a foolish thing?”
Luisa’s aggrieved tears instantly flowed out and she said hatefully, “Emma will never forgive me. She only came to see my outcome and to see me make a joke of myself. Mom, I would rather die than apologize to her. I didn’t do anything wrong. She shamelessly pestered Archie. If it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t have made a mistake. She was the one who ruined my life.”
Minlan looked at her in shock. “Is Archie really that important to you? He doesn’t love you. It’s not like you don’t know.”
“Of course it’s that important, Mom. You don’t know how embarrassing my situation is. Every time I go out and play with my friends, They always use this matter to make fun of me, because. . . Ever since I was young, I have always said in front of them that I would definitely be Mrs. Grafton’s. I have said this since I was a child. How many years has it been? Everyone is looking at me. Sometimes, I feel like I am Archie’s wife.” Luisa was in a trance. She spoke incoherently and looked out the window blankly.
Minlan gently hugged her head, “Luisa, I understand your pain. You have been proud since you were young. You are afraid of losing face in front of your friends. You are afraid that you will not be able to raise your head if you do not marry Archie. Is that so?”
“Mom, I do not want to be mocked by them. I do not want them to look down on me. That is why I want to marry Archie so badly.” Luisa burst into tears. In front of her mother, there was no trace of pride. There was only one pitiful person who wanted to maintain his self-esteem.
“It is the fault of our previous generation. We cannot blame you!” Minlan sighed. The entanglement of fate started from the previous generation.
Luisa felt even more aggrieved and cried, “Mom, I do not wish to beg Emma anymore. I really do not wish to lower myself to her. That person of hers is ruthless and will not forgive me. Mom, let dad think of a way.”
Minlan could only close her eyes in pain, “I will go and beg Emma for mercy.”
“I’m afraid that it will be useless even if you go. Let grandma go. Grandma definitely does not want to see me being locked up. Furthermore, Emma and grandma are the closest.” Luisa urgently said.
“I have to go back and discuss this matter with your dad. Do you want your grandma to know?” Minlan was afraid that if the old lady knew, she would get a heart attack from anger.
“Anyway, she has to know sooner or later.” Luisa said in a low voice.
“I say, why are you so bold? Don’t you know that kidnapping is against the law?” The more Minlan thought about it, the angrier she got.
“I was so angry at Emma that I lost my mind. How could I think about whether I’m breaking the law or not? I just want her to disappear quickly.” Luisa said righteously.
Minlan was so angry that she did not want to speak anymore.
After Emma left the coffee shop, she took the car to the company. In the car, she sent a message to Archie.
Very quickly, Archie called.
“Luisa beg you to forgive her? You agreed?” Archie’s voice was very low, but it could be heard that he was somewhat displeased.
Emma curled the corner of her mouth, “How can I forgive her? She should have eaten the consequences of her actions and had a good memory.”
“It’s right that you can think like this. I am really afraid that you will be soft-hearted and forgive her.” In the Tasya incident last time, Archie was somewhat dissatisfied with what she had done.
“I will not!” Emma said firmly.
“Luisa panicked, that’s why she came to you to plead for mercy. Don’t pay attention to her, let her be tortured by this fear for a period of time.”
“She just cut her wrist in front of me with a blade in the coffee shop. She wanted to use her death to force me to forgive her.”
Archie sneered coldly. “Don’t be fooled by her acting skills. She would do anything to achieve her goal.”
Emma smiled and said, “It seems that you know her tricks very well.”
“We have been playing together since we were young. I know what kind of person she is. In the beginning, I was really afraid that you were not her match. But now, it seems like my worries are unnecessary. You are indeed the daughter of Sandford Family.” Archie laughed. His voice was deep.
Emma instantly protested a little. “What do you mean by laughing? Are the daughters of the Sandford Family destined to be cruel bad people?”
“I’m not saying that the people of the Sandford Family are all bad, but at least in terms of principles, they still insist on their own character. Your grandmother was a famous woman in the business world, but she retired later.” Archie explained.
“My grandmother used to do business, but why is there no company in Sandford Family now? Is my grandmother’s company bankrupt?” Emma asked curiously.
“I am not very clear about this. You can ask your grandma.” Archie said faintly.
Emma had no choice but to not continue with this question. She frowned and said, “Why didn’t you come to find me last night?”
“What’s wrong? Did you miss me?” Archie asked in an evil manner.
Emma rolled her eyes. Why did this man come again?
“Yes, I miss you. I really want to see you, but you made me wait for an entire night. I am angry with you now.” Emma angrily gritted her teeth and said.
“You are going to be engaged to the Wolfleim Family in three months. How can you still be angry with me?” Archie’s tone became even more jealous.
Emma was stunned. It seemed that Archie was really angry about this matter.
“I didn’t promise to get engaged to them.” Emma immediately cut to the chase.
“But your father agreed. This meant. . . You also agreed.”
“It’s his business that he agreed to it. In any case, I didn’t agree to it.” Emma immediately made up her mind.
Archie’s tone became better. “At least you know what’s good for you. If you really agree, let’s see how I will let you off lightly.”
“Alright. Let’s not talk about us. Tell me about that bastard Heizi.” Emma changed the topic.
“What else do you need to say? Luisa came to you early to plead for mercy. I think the truth is already out.” Archie said with a faint smile.
Emma nodded her little head. “Yes, it seems that she is the one behind all of this. She really went too far by kidnapping me.”
“I’ll tell my grandfather about this today. When the time comes, I’ll tell you the result.” Archie’s tone suddenly became gentle.
Emma was delighted. “Really? Then I will wait for your good news.”
“Let’s do it this way. I’m about to board the plane!”
“Oh, okay!” Emma could only hang up the phone and found that the taxi driver was looking at her with a very strange look.
She was stunned and could only laugh dryly.
Did I say something that I shouldn’t have said just now?
Arriving at the door of Civada, Emma paid and got off the car.
She was in a very good mood. The prisoner was caught and Luisa was going to be punished according to the law. If Old Master Grafton knew about this matter, she didn’t know what kind of attitude he would have, but there must be one thing. Luisa was not fated to be in the position of Mrs. Grafton.
No matter how much Old Master Grafton liked her, it was impossible for him to accept a woman who had committed a crime to marry into the Grafton Family.
He cared about his reputation, but more about his character.
Emma sincerely hoped that Archie would bring her a good result.
She walked into the office and suddenly saw a bouquet of red roses on the desk.
She picked up the flowers and looked at them. There was a card on it with Yoseph’s name and a few words of blessing written on it.
“This guy. . . ” Emma was totally convinced by him. He actually started to give her flowers openly.
Emma held the flowers and strode out. She took the elevator to the top floor.
Yoseph’s assistant saw Emma holding the flowers and was shocked.
“Is President Yoseph in the office?” Emma asked.
“Yes, I will send him a message.” An assistant picked up the phone on the table and was about to make a call, but Emma had already strode through the assistant area and forcefully pushed open the office door.
When she held the flowers and was about to look for Yoseph to come and denounce him.
However, she discovered that there was not only Yoseph inside, there were also more than ten management staff. They seemed to be in a meeting.
Emma saw that Kevin was one of them, and her expression became a little stiff for some reason.
Yoseph stood up from the big black chair and walked over with a smile. He asked, “Emma, why are you in such a hurry to find me? Is there anything you need?”
Emma’s beautiful eyes widened a little. The words that she wanted to say were stuck in her throat.
“I. . . I’m fine!” Emma did not want to admit that she had received the roses from Yoseph in front of so many people.
Didn’t that mean she didn’t want to confess?
Yoseph’s deep eyes locked onto her flustered little face. He reached out his hand and gently pulled a petal, placing it at the tip of his nose and smelling it. “So fragrant. Who gave it to you?”
After Emma heard his words, she really couldn’t help but want to punch him in the face. Wasn’t this asking a question that she knew the answer to?
“Oh, it was given to me by Archie. I just wanted to bring it over for you to take a look. Aren’t you his friend? You have to share good things with him.” Emma’s brain spun quickly. In an instant, she used one sentence to make Yoseph’s face turn green.
Yoseph smiled helplessly. “Archie really has good taste. He picked such a fresh and beautiful rose for you.”
“Yes, he does have good taste. I won’t disturb President Yoseph’s meeting anymore!” Emma shook her long hair, turned around, and walked out of the office. She knocked on the door of the office.
“Damn Yoseph!” She stomped her feet, turned around, and gritted her teeth.
He must have brought these people here on purpose. He had already predicted that she would not spread this matter.
