Emma sat down at the table and looked at the nobleman sitting opposite her. She couldn’t help but ask, “Archie, did you put that recording online?”
“It wasn’t me, it was my uncle!” Archie said lightly. He looked at her with an unfathomable gaze. “Do you mind?”
Emma shook her head. “How could I mind? You are helping me uphold justice. I am grateful to you.”
“Your father must have the intention to kill me at this moment.” Archie laughed at himself.
Emma was shocked.
Archie slightly leaned over. The warm large palm gently pressed on the back of her hand, as if comforting her. “No matter how much pressure I bear, I will avenge you. I will not allow them to bully you.”
Emma’s heart was greatly moved. Her clear eyes were filled with tears. On the handsome and firm face of the man, there was a flash. “Archie, thank you. Thank you for protecting me like this. Actually. . . If it wasn’t for you, Luisa would have hurt me. She wouldn’t have been able to receive the punishment she deserved. The Sandford Family would definitely protect her. Then, they wanted me to bear with it. They wanted me to do it for the sake of my family. I want to swallow this humiliation and grievance by myself, but I don’t want it to be like this. I think Luisa deserves to be taught a lesson.”
Archie gently patted the back of her hand twice. “You are right. To those who hurt you. That’s the attitude. . . Otherwise, if the lesson isn’t painful enough, she will continue to hurt you for the second time.”
“Today, I saw the video of Luisa being arrested on the Internet. She used her hand to cover her face. I don’t know if she has any regrets for what she did to me back then.” Emma said lightly.
Archie looked at her sad face and comforted her in a low voice, “Alright, don’t think about this. Luisa has already been punished. I’m worried that the people of Sandford Family will have a problem with you regarding this matter.”
“I am not afraid!” Emma laughed sarcastically. “Anyway, I am not the one who committed the crime. I am the victim.”
Archie nodded. “That’s right. You are the victim. If Sandford Family finds out that you have gone too far in this matter, come back to my side.”
“Can. . . Can I follow you back to the Grafton Family?” Emma asked carefully.
“I will bring you back tonight. The current situation is very delicate. I am worried that you will get hurt.”
“Okay, then I will go back with you!” The corner of Emma’s mouth raised slightly. At this moment, her drifting heart seemed to have someone to rely on.
After dinner, Archie brought Emma to the presidential suite on the top floor to rest.
“Tonight, are we going to sleep here?” Emma asked with a red face.
Archie sat down on the sofa and patted his thigh. “Come here!”
Emma lightly walked over. The large palm tightly wrapped around her waist and placed her on his lap. “Emma, are you afraid of being with me?”
“What are you afraid of?” Emma blinked her eyes.
Archie’s finger rubbed against her pink lip and his voice was low and hoarse, “When your identity is announced, our relationship will change. Everyone knows that the person I should marry is Luisa but in the end, the person I want to marry is you.”
Emma was startled for a moment. She had never thought about this matter.
But rumors were sometimes more painful than real swords and spears.
“As long as you don’t say it in front of me, I will pretend that I don’t know anything.” Emma lightly leaned against his chest and listened to his powerful heartbeat. The panic in her heart was slightly suppressed.
“If anyone dares to speak nonsense, you will tear her mouth.”
“I am not that violent!”
“Then I’ll send someone to carry out violence for you!”
Emma raised her small face and stared blankly at Archie, who was very close to her. “As long as you do not shrink back, I will not.”
“I have never backed off!” Archie looked at her bright red lip and lifted her chin with his finger. He couldn’t help but kiss her.
A man’s kiss was the same as his temperament. It was overbearing and violent. It demanded her sweetness inch by inch.
Emma’s mind went blank. She weakly grabbed his shirt and panted.
Archie looked at her infatuated expression. His thin lips curled up slightly and he bent down. He picked her up horizontally and walked straight to the bedroom.
Wolfleim Family!
Study room!
Jasson was sitting behind his desk, and Yoseph was holding a Magic Cube. He quickly flipped through it, and in the blink of an eye, the cube had been pieced together.
“If Archie really chooses Benny’s side, we should consider it carefully.” Jasson’s dignified and steady voice rang out.
Yoseph threw the Magic Cube into the trash can. His handsome face was gloomy, and his voice was cold. “Indeed. If we can’t form an alliance, then we are enemies.”
“But Wolfleim and Archie have close to 100 billion business deals in the business world. How do you plan to deal with this matter?” Jasson looked at his son with a cold and sharp gaze, waiting for his answer.
“I will look for Archie tomorrow. I want to know his position clearly. If he really doesn’t stand on our side, then I can only make up my mind to end this with him.” Yoseph thought for a while and said.
“It seems that a storm is coming in the shopping mall of H Country. I really hope this is a win-win situation.”
“Impossible, this is destined to be a situation where both sides are heavily injured” Yoseph sneered.
Jasson looked at his son’s gradually turning cold face and asked, “Yoseph, when did you fall in love with Emma?”
Yoseph was slightly startled. He lowered his head and was silent.
“What? Even father can’t say it?” Jasson’s tone became stern.
“I have liked her for a long time. Dad, I am determined to get her.” Yoseph’s tone was very firm.
“You are determined to get her? A divorced woman, are you in the heart of Father? Father has raised you for so many years. Is it because he wants you to find a second-hand woman to carry on your family line?” Jasson was very angry. He felt that his son was too useless.
Yoseph knew that his father would use this matter to talk about him. He was already prepared.
“Dad, I don’t mind her past. She was originally my fiancée. I was just fulfilling our engagement.”
Jasson punched the table. “Even if you don’t marry her, the Sandford Family won’t dare to have any objections.”
“Dad, I don’t like to give my woman to someone else. Archie has already chosen Benny. Do I still want him to take my woman away from me?” Yoseph said with some hatred.
Jasson frowned. “Are you not convinced?”
“I just don’t want to lose to him anymore.” Yoseph was really unwilling.
Jasson looked at his son’s firm attitude and knew that he was serious this time. He could only nod. “Alright. You are right. If we lose our own woman, then our Wolfleim Family will become a joke.”
Yoseph looked at his father and heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. His father’s support had undoubtedly given him a greater motivation.
The next morning, Emma woke up from the man’s embrace.
Outside the window, snow was flying everywhere and the cold air was dense.
Emma had a dream last night. The scene in the dream made her break out in cold sweat.
When she woke up, she felt the large palm pressing on her abdomen and her heart calmed down a little.
She subconsciously curled up in the man’s arms.
Why would she dream about the scene of her and Yoseph getting married? This was too strange. How could she possibly marry Yoseph?
She would only be Archie’s bride for the rest of her life.
“What’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare?” A man’s deep and steady voice sounded beside his ear.
Emma shook her head. “No, what time is it now?”
“It’s still early, just past six o’clock! Let’s sleep a little more.” Archie patted her arm and whispered.
Emma nodded. This time, there was no nightmare disturbance. She slept for more than two hours.
When she woke up, Archie was no longer by her side.
She sat up in a trance and walked out of the living room. She saw a neat set of female clothing on the sofa. There was also a note left by Archie.
So he had gone to the company early in the morning.
Emma touched her sore waist and thought about the scene of her red face and heartbeat last night. She felt an indescribable sweetness in her heart.
She really hoped that this beautiful time could last a little longer.
At this moment, Archie was sitting in his office when he heard his assistant’s transmission. “President Archie, Young Master Yoseph is here!”
“Let him in!” Archie adjusted his clothes. His eyes were cold and sharp.
He seemed to have predicted that Yoseph would come and find him because he was the one who made the decision first.
The current situation of Wolfleim was relatively passive.
Yoseph pushed open the door and entered. After that, he flung the office door hard.
Archie’s thin lips twitched. “Did you eat gunpowder this morning? Why are you so angry?”
Yoseph walked straight to his desk and put his hands on the table. The table trembled. “Archie, what are you playing?”
“If you have something to say, let’s calm down and talk. You are like this. . . ”
“You want me to calm down? When did you become Benny’s guest? What is your relationship with him? Cooperation?”
Archie looked at his good friend’s sarcastic question and his expression changed slightly, but his tone was still calm and collected. “I just feel that Dexon is not suitable to be the president. His ability is limited. If we support him to become the president, it will be a disaster for H Country.”
“Archie, don’t be too arrogant. You want to marry his daughter, but at the same time, you want to ruin his reputation. Don’t you think your actions are too much?” Yoseph sneered, unable to hide his anger.
Archie’s expression instantly turned cold. “Who is the one who caused this? Me? At the old lady’s birthday banquet, he wanted to marry Emma to you in front of me. He should have predicted the hostile situation today.”
“Emma is my woman.” Yoseph’s tone also had a trace of coldness and anger.
“Your woman? Has she ever loved you?” Archie mocked.
“Regardless of whether she loves me or not, I want to marry her.”
“How dare you!” Archie punched the table hard. His tone was unquestionable. “She is mine!”
