This night, outside the window, deeper in the bedroom, it was warm and passionate.
After taking a shower, Emma leaned against his arms tiredly and suddenly thought of something and said: “I want to take a leave of absence tomorrow, is that okay?”
“You want to take a leave of absence on your first day of work?” Archie pretended to be angry and put on a stern face. “Why do you want to take leave?”
“My grandma asked me to accompany her to see Luisa.” Emma quickly explained.
Archie ruffled her long hair and said mischievously, “Seeing that you were so enthusiastic just now, I will let you.”
Emma’s small face turned red from embarrassment and lightly punched him in annoyance. “Who is enthusiastic?”
“It’s you, isn’t it? It’s almost squeezing me dry!” Archie liked to tease her. Looking at her shy and helpless appearance, he only felt that his mood was great.
Emma shyly hid in his embrace and did not want to talk to him anymore.
When this man was bad, he could really make one’s heart melt into his bones.
The morning sunlight fell by the window and Emma forced herself to wake up early.
Archie saw that she did not have enough sleep and frowned. “Anyway, I have already given you leave. You can sleep for a while more.”
“No, I need to get used to waking up early!” Emma said firmly.
Archie could not do anything to her. “I will send you to Sandford Family along the way.”
“Alright!” Emma quickly washed up, put on her clothes, and went downstairs to eat breakfast.
She knew that Archie would have an early meeting at eight o’clock in the morning. Furthermore, it was a routine that had to be done at all times.
It was no wonder that every time he woke up, it would be six-thirty in the morning. It turned out that everything was because of work.
When she thought about how Archie could persist in getting up so early every day, Emma’s heart ached, and she also wanted to follow his steps.
Since Archie wanted to help her become a stronger woman, she also wanted to be a little more powerful.
When she arrived at the entrance of Sandford Family, she happened to meet Dexon’s car and was about to leave.
Archie’s long motorcade blocked his way. He asked the driver to honk wildly.
Emma saw this scene and quickly said to Archie, “I got off the car. You should hurry up and leave.”
“What is there to be anxious about? I haven’t kissed you yet.” Archie also knew that Dexon was deliberately urging him.
But he still wanted to stop for a while.
“Uh!” Emma was stunned. The next second, her little head was grabbed by Archie’s large palm. Her thin lips forcefully kissed her little mouth for two seconds.
“Be good. Get out of the car. Call me if you need anything!” Archie patted her dumbstruck little face and said as if he still wanted to continue.
Emma’s little face turned red again, and she glared at him angrily. She pushed the door and got out of the car.
Only after Archie’s motorcade had left did Dexon’s car get out.
Emma deliberately took a look at Dexon’s expression. Sure enough, it was extremely dark and hard to see.
It was over. Archie was too bad. He did it on purpose.
Emma could no longer stop Archie from causing trouble. She could only sigh helplessly.
Entering the living room, Madam Sandford was already prepared to go out.
“Mom, do you want to go together?” Emma looked at Minlan who was standing by the side and asked.
Minlan shook her head. “I am not going over. I just went to take a look a few days ago.”
“Okay, I’ll go with grandma!” Emma nodded.
“Emma. . . ” Minlan suddenly held her hand and her eyes were sore. “Emma, your sister will be sentenced in a few days. Can you. . . Can you help her beg for mercy? Give her a few years less and let her come out as soon as possible!”
Emma was stunned and looked at her grandmother. Madam Sandford’s expression was also filled with sadness.
“Emma, just treat it as mother begging you. Although your sister did such a terrible thing, she had already been punished. I believe that her nature is not that bad. It is only right to let her suffer in prison. However, can you reduce the sentence by a few years? Even if you reduce the sentence by a year, it’s still good.” The more Minlan spoke, the more pained she felt. Tears kept falling down.
Emma did not know how to reply and just stood there blankly. Her voice was somewhat stiff. “Let me think about it.”
“Emma, you are a good child. After all, she is your elder sister. You two are biological sisters and are related by blood.” Minlan tried her best to persuade her.
Emma also felt heartache. The person who did not take this blood relationship seriously was Luisa.
She turned her head to look at Madam Sandford who had a sad expression, “Grandma, is this also your intention?”
Madam Sandford’s expression became even more sorrowful.
“Grandma, since you all wish for her to be taught a lesson and be a new person, Then I’ll talk to Archie and see if there’s any way to reduce her sentence by a few years!” Emma really did not want to see her grandma nearly seventy years old and still have to bear the pain brought by her offspring. That was the most sorrowful thing.
“Emma, thank you!” Madam Sandford looked at her gratefully and also had tears in her eyes.
“Grandma, let’s go. What do you want to thank me for?” Emma supported her and walked towards the car outside the door.
Minlan saw that Emma finally let out a sigh of relief and also let out a long breath.
Actually, if Emma was determined not to let Luisa go, they would also be helpless.
But they all knew that Emma was definitely not that kind of steel-hearted person. Hence, they could only play the family card.
Arriving at the female detention center, Emma supported Madam Sandford into a room.
After a while, Luisa walked in with heavy steps in handcuffs.
When she saw Madam Sandford, there was some joy on her face but when she saw Emma standing by the side, her entire body trembled in anger and she gritted her teeth.
“Luisa, sit down and talk!” Madam Sandford directly opened her mouth to speak.
Luisa forcefully endured her resentment and sat down.
Emma stood beside her grandmother and her gaze indifferently swept across her angry expression.
It seemed that Luisa did not even realize the mistakes she had made. Even after being locked up, her arrogance was still so arrogant.
She really had to consider whether she should help her plead or not.
“Grandma, it’s good that you came to see me. Why did you bring her here? You clearly know that I don’t want to see her.” Luisa immediately said with resentment.
Madam Sandford however said with a sullen face, “Luisa, why are you still saying this kind of thing? If not for Emma not bickering with you, do you think you would still be able to stay in the detention center? I’m afraid you would have already been locked up in the prison.”
Luisa thought hard and her face quickly turned pale.
“Grandma, save me. I don’t want to stay in this kind of place. The people here are so cold. I’m so scared.” Luisa looked at everyone and the first thing she did was to ask for help.
Madam Sandford shook her head, “Luisa, grandma came to see you. She can’t save you. You have to bear the consequences of your mistakes. Wait until you turn over a new leaf and become a good person again.”
“Grandma. . . ” Luisa cried in despair. Then, she looked at Emma.
