Emma Rosy was staring at the decorations in the corner of the table and didn’t seem to hear his words.
Joe Wright took over when the situation was awkward: “Just give her tea or lemonade, what about Eva?”
When Joe Wright took the initiative to ask her, Eva Taylor’s cheeks flushed and she answered in a soft voice.
The four of them were sitting opposite each other, but no one spoke up, the atmosphere was serious as if the leaders were having a meeting, Eva Taylor cleared her throat and took the initiative to start the conversation.
“Emma, that… Keira forgive me? It’s embarrassing to make her cry.”
The hand under the dining table was touched by Joe Wright, Emma Rosy jerked her head up, trying to raise the corners of her lips, the despondent look could not be concealed.
“It’s okay, kids don’t know any better, don’t take it personally.”
From Charles Taylor’s perspective, he could see the watery glow under her eyes in the sunlight.
Eva Taylor was about to say something else, but Charles Taylor stopped her with a look and gestured for her to take Emma Rosy away first.
Thinking that her brother was going to teach Joe Wright another lesson, Eva Taylor, though reluctant, had to obey and get up: “Emma, I want to go to the bathroom, can you look for it with me?”
This is a really bad lie, you’ve been here before, you still don’t know where the bathroom is?
However, Emma Rosy just wanted to find a chance to adjust her mood, so she gave in to her excuse and left the table together.
After watching They disappear around the corner, Charles Taylor asked Joe Wright, “What’s wrong with her?”
Joe Wright bristled, the reason for Emma Rosy’s depressed mood was not something that had to be kept secret, but Charles Taylor was so concerned about Emma Rosy that he was very upset.
“This restaurant… Alex Brown has brought Emma here many times.” Talking about it, Joe Wright curbed the anger when arguing and suddenly became heavy.
Charles Taylor has always been uninterested in the emotional experiences of the next person, but has an extraordinary curiosity about Emma Rosy’s past. After learning of her trauma, he even unconsciously blamed Alex Brown.
But any man with a sense of responsibility would never do such a thing!
In the washroom, Emma Rosy stood in front of the mirror, staring at herself in the mirror.
The image in front of her eyes gradually blurred, and suddenly, it seems to see the past.
After her release from prison, Alex Brown first asked her to dinner at this restaurant.
Later, their relationship eased up a bit, but they didn’t know how to get along, stealing glances at each other during dinner, and occasionally their eyes would collide.
The good times, however, are always the shortest…
“Emma.”
Eva Taylor approached from behind, rushing to wash her hands when she finally couldn’t help her curiosity: “Are you not feeling well?”
Emma Rosy looked at her, looking a little helpless: “You’re asking me why I’m in a bad mood, right?”
In fact, there is nothing to hide, but the mere memory of those past, the heart will be flooded with bursts of stinging pain, say the words will be more difficult.
“… He has brought me here before.” There was a long silence before Emma Rosy answered in a soft voice.
Eva Taylor did not have to guess who it was.
“I’m sorry.” She didn’t expect to mention Emma Rosy’s sadness, and she wanted to slap herself, and secretly blamed herself, why couldn’t she control her mouth?
Emma Rosy shook her head: “It’s my problem. I’m the one who should apologize for making you all uncomfortable.”
She smiles at Eva Taylor and reminds her that it’s time to go back.
They sisters walked out arm in arm, but a man suddenly leapt out at the end of the hallway and ran right into Emma Rosy.
“What the hell is wrong with you!… eh, do not apologize and you run?
“Forget it, I’m fine, and she didn’t mean it.” Emma Rosy rubbed her arm, which hurt from the bump, and said soothingly.
Unfortunately, Eva Taylor’s voice was so loud that even They men in the hall were alerted.
They men arrived one after the other, and after hearing what had happened, Joe Wright suddenly grabbed Emma Rosy nervously: “Where is it hurt?”
“Not hurt?” Joe Wright’s face was suspicious, and he looked at the fragments of the dinner plate on the ground: “What’s that about?”
Everyone looked together, only to see the ground among the debris, golden fried fish steak lying alone in the center, and around the red liquid has appeared…
The heart jolts, the four people look at each other, all found an extremely strange thing.
From the time they entered the restaurant until now, only saw a waiter, in addition to see no one else, not even diners. And right now, it’s clearly mealtime!
Emma Rosy was in a depressed mood, and everyone’s attention was on her, so they didn’t even notice how weird the situation was.
“Brother…” Eva Taylor moved closer to Charles Taylor’s direction, clutching his sleeve and blushing a little from fear.
Charles Taylor patted her on the back of her hand and said comfortingly, “Maybe there’s something wrong inside the restaurant, don’t worry, I’ll go over and take a look.”
After sending They girls back to the lobby to wait, Joe Wright and Charles Taylor walked together deeper into the restaurant.
Passing by the broken plates, a closer look, found the red-brown carpet was stained with a trail of blood, follow the trail to the back of the kitchen, behind the neat kitchen counter, there was a man’s body lying!
That’s why it’s a corpse, the knife wound around the blood has dried, and the man with a blue face, is staring at the ceiling with vacant eyes!
A murder has taken place in the restaurant, which is full of weirdness.
The police car buzzed in front of the restaurant, the detectives went to the back kitchen to investigate the scene, while the rest of the police officers questioned Emma Rosy in the lobby.
After the initial investigation, the four were put into a police car and taken to the police station.
Swish!
In the dimly lit interrogation room, a powerful desk lamp comes on and shines directly on Emma Rosy’s face.
The light was so blinding that she raised her hand to block it, but was rebuked and had to squint at They police officers seated across from her.
