Emma felt a little uneasy when the wedding was mentioned. She also quickly picked up the cup and drank some tea.
Benny’s seemingly gentle gaze swept across Emma’s face and then he asked, “Miss Emma, are you really Vice President Dexon’s daughter? But your surname is Quinsley, and his surname is Sandford!”
Emma was slightly startled.
Then she looked at Archie and Archie used his eyes to encourage her. Then she said in a low voice, “Actually, I only recognized him because he lost his daughter outside.”
“So that’s how it is. After hearing what you said, I think I remember someone saying that there was indeed a younger daughter of Sandford Family who was lost as soon as she was born. It’s you, what a poor child.” Benny said with a warm voice.
“It’s me!” Emma was also a little sad.
Benny filled up the tea for the two of them and then thought of something. He looked at Archie and asked, “Is the engagement between the Grafton Family and the Sandford Family still valid?”
Archie’s eyes darkened. His tone was cold. “Luisa has already been locked up. Of course it has no effect.”
“But what about Wolfleim Family?” Benny seemed to have some understanding about the matters between these few families.
Archie’s handsome face froze, and Emma also trembled slightly.
“I don’t care what the Wolfleim Family’s attitude is. Emma is my woman. They already know about it.” Archie’s tone was very firm.
Emma looked at him and saw his firm and sharp chin line and his thin lips that symbolized dominance. She also tightly pursed her lips.
Her heart settled down for no reason.
As long as Archie could persist in this relationship between the two of them, she was not afraid of fate entangling with him.
Benny nodded, but his expression did not relax. “The election has just ended. I believe Dexon should be satisfied now. If you were not generous enough to let him go. . . I’m afraid he will not be able to keep his position as the vice president.”
“I’m just afraid that he won’t owe me this favor.” Archie sneered.
Emma thought about how Dexon did not answer the phone and her heart sank for no reason.
That’s right, what was her father thinking?
Archie had already let him go, but he was still unwilling to marry her to Archie?
“Chie, if Sandford Family makes things difficult for you, uncle will step in for you.” Benny thought of something and said with a sad expression, “Your mother has left, and your grandfather and grandmother are also overseas. Uncle can be considered your family.”
Thinking of his mother who had passed away, Archie’s expression became sad.
“Alright, let’s not talk about the past. It’s late. You guys go back first!” Benny didn’t want the atmosphere to be too heavy, so he stood up and wanted to send them away.
Archie nodded. He held Emma’s little hand and followed her out of the study.
In the corridor, he met Joji. Archie greeted him, “Cousin, I’ll be leaving first!”
Joji’s face changed quickly. He also smiled. “Take care, cousin. Come and visit me when you have time.”
“Of course!” Archie answered. He had already held Emma’s hand and walked down the stairs.
Emma only relaxed when she got into the car.
She gently leaned on Archie’s shoulder and felt a little tired.
“Archie, was that person your uncle’s son just now?” She asked casually.
“Yes, his name is Joji Henfox!” Archie replied.
“Oh!” Emma understood. “What is he doing now?”
“Maybe he will also be in politics. He used to be a member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Later, he went overseas for training. This time, when he comes back, he will definitely take advantage of the situation to improve.” Archie did not know much about this cousin of his. He did not get along with him much either.
Maybe it was because the two of them had different personalities and the topics they talked about were not the same, so they naturally distanced themselves from each other.
Emma recalled that she accidentally looked into Joji’s eyes just now. When she saw the touch of coldness between his brows, she looked up at Archie. In the end, she still did not say it out loud.
She did not want to provoke any conflict between Archie and the Henfox Family.
Benny returned to the study and planned to rest for a while in the study.
Joji walked in with concern on his face. “Dad, if you are tired, go back to your room and sleep. I will take care of the rest.”
“I’ll just sit here for a while. I’ll sleep later. I won’t be able to sleep well even if I sleep early.” Benny shook his head. The sudden change in identity had made him busy and excited. He could not sleep well.
“Dad, what did you talk about with your cousin?” Joji asked curiously.
“Nothing, just some personal matters.” Benny replied faintly.
“Is the woman beside cousin his girlfriend? She looks a little improper.” Joji mocked on purpose.
Benny’s expression became stern and scolded him lightly. “Don’t speak nonsense. That girl’s name is Emma. Her character is not bad.”
Joji shrugged his shoulders. “Then pretend I didn’t say anything. However, younger sister doesn’t seem to like her very much. Just now, she was crying to me in the room, saying that this Emma is a very scheming woman.”
“Your sister’s performance today made me a little disappointed.” Benny could be considered a fair person. He was still very concerned about this matter.
“What happened to sister again? She just casually mentioned that she is Dexon’s daughter. Isn’t this the truth?” Joji instantly wanted to defend Yunita.
“What do you know? A political storm, a small matter can cause a huge storm. I just took the position of president. I don’t want anyone to be swayed by my position.” Benny’s expression immediately became stern.
“Dad, Emma is Dexon’s daughter. What is there to be afraid of? Isn’t the reason why he lost this competition because of Dexon’s incompetence?” Joji was very dissatisfied with his dad’s attitude. He was kind and amiable to Archie, but he was always strict to himself. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
“Enough. Stop arguing. Go out now.” Benny didn’t want to explain the complicated relationship between them.
“Dad, am I really your biological son? You have always talked to Archie about everything. When you talk to me, you only know how to blame me. Yes, your son is not as good as Archie, but I am your son.” Joji immediately expressed his dissatisfaction, and his face turned pale.
Benny was stunned.
Then, he slapped a book on the table on his face. “When you are qualified, come and eat Archie’s vinegar.”
Joji was so scared that he quickly dodged, but the resentment in his heart deepened.
He knocked on the door and ran downstairs angrily.
Yunita saw her brother angrily throw the door of the study out and was so scared that her whole body trembled.
“Brother, you quarreled with Dad again?” She quickly chased downstairs.
“Humph, he likes Archie so much. Let him find Archie to be his son.” Joji said with a violent temper.
Yunita was stunned.
Did her father really like Archie?
If she let Archie be his son-in-law, wouldn’t it be the same as making him his son?
Thinking of this, Yunita became more and more determined in her goal.
No matter what, she wanted to be with Archie.
