They siblings are close, so they don’t need to be polite, but everyone in the room could sense that Emma Rosy had already been upset with Charles Taylor because of the Taylor Family’s excessive behavior.
Charles Taylor’s pursuit for more than two years still could not make Emma Rosy soften, there must be many reasons not known to outsiders, so Joe Wright did not help Charles Taylor to say clear, directly agreed.
Charles Taylor accompanied Emma Rosy to the hospital after landing and did not inform his assistant to pick him up, and took Joe Wright’s ride when he left.
When he promised to help Emma Rosy, Joe Wright had to ask about their experiences during the trip, and from the conversation, Charles Taylor realized he didn’t know about Alex Brown.
“You said Alex Brown is still alive? Back home? Lost his memory again?!” Joe Wright was so shocked that he almost ran a red light when he put his foot down.
Charles Taylor spread his hands: “Unbelievable? I had the same reaction when I first saw him.”
A person who was declared dead, brought back to the ashes, buried in the cemetery, suddenly reappeared one day, no one can accept. But for some reason, perhaps because Emma Rosy always believed that Alex Brown was still alive, Joe Wright calmed down after the initial surprise.
“When did he come back? I can’t believe I haven’t heard anything about what’s going on within the Brown Family.”
Alex Brown intentionally distanced himself from Emma Rosy, the “resurrection” of course, to hide from her and her people, with the Brown Family’s strength today, want to short time to hide from the Wright Family, is not impossible.
Charles Taylor rested one hand on his lap and tapped his fingertips: “According to Emma, we met him again on the day you and Eva got engaged.”
Joe Wright, who had his hands full as a newlywed that day, had heard that Emma Rosy had inexplicably disappeared for a while before the wedding reception took place, but hadn’t given it much thought. It turned out she had seen Alex Brown at the time.
However, with Alex Brown back, wouldn’t this one beside himself be full of crisis again?
Through the rear-view mirror, Joe Wright stole a few glances at Charles Taylor, the gaze is quite compassionate, however, he soon realized that his own business has not been resolved, right now is not the time to worry about others.
“Ahem… Mr. Taylor, if you see Eva when you get home later, can you apologize for me? The relationship between They families has been tense lately, and if I go to her, I’m afraid your elders will pressure her.”Joe Wright said.
Charles Taylor is always willing to help with anything related to Eva Taylor and Joe Wright’s relationship, so he agrees.
It took a few moments before he realized something was wrong.
“Apologize?” He frowned at Joe Wright: “You had a fight?
Joe Wright cleared his throat, prepared to be scolded, and told Charles Taylor about the accident that happened during the proposal: “… Although Grandpa’s safety is the most important, but leaving Eva , it was indeed my poor consideration, I knew I was wrong when I arrived at the hospital, but I didn’t have the face to contact her again.”
I knew I was wrong when I got to the hospital, but I didn’t have the face to contact her again.”
Charles Taylor sorted out the whole thing and stared sharply at Joe Wright, asking in a cold voice: “You mean that you left Eva alone at the scene halfway through the proposal and never contacted her again?”
The air pressure in the car instantly dropped to the freezing point, a chill creeping up the back, Joe Wright shrunk his neck, very embarrassed: “To be exact… is this.”
At that time in the hospital he did have a wavering about the future of their marriage, but after Master Wright’s reminder, and can no longer deceive themselves, as an excuse to dump the innocent Eva Taylor.
So his apology was sincere, and his attempt to coax Eva Taylor back was also sincere.
Charles Taylor looked at him for a long time, anger in the chest rampant, really want to pull the man outside the car beaten.
The most cherished sister, who has never been aggrieved since she was a child, how many times has she cried since she got together with him? How many changes have been made?
What about him? Even if he refused to love her, he went further and further to hurt her!
“You…”
Charles Taylor’s arm was trembling with anger as he raised his hand to point at him, but then he thought of his sister’s happy smile when she was by his side and finally sighed deeply: “Eva likes you a lot, I hope you won’t be reckless with this like!”
Joe Wright nodded guiltily, “I understand, something like that will never happen again.”
Charles Taylor grunted and turned his head away from him, only to throw down a sentence in a bad mood as he got out of the car.
“I’m only responsible for delivering the message, how to coax her after it’s over, figure it out yourself!”
Taylor Family.
When Charles Taylor entered the door, Carl Hollander and Sara Hollander hurriedly greeted him, obviously waiting for him.
“Have you been to the hospital? Do you know about Master Wright’s serious illness?” Carl Hollander asked a series of questions, the worry on his face did not seem to be fake.
Sara Hollander also nervously waiting for his answer, hands clasped in front of her chest, lips are bitten into shape.
Seeing this, Charles Taylor’s impulse to inquire is alleviated, but still board face, with a reproachful face: “Temporarily fine, but must be hospitalized for observation, a little more stimulation is very likely to be life-threatening.”
By deliberately describing Master Wright’s condition as serious, he intended to arouse the elders’ guilt and stop making trouble about the stock, and then find a suitable opportunity to apologize.
Sara Hollander exclaimed immediately after hearing this, and spun around in fear: “What can we do? If something really happens to him, the media will definitely blame it on us, the Taylor Family!
“It’s all your fault!” Carl Hollander glared at her, “I told you to wait for Charles to come back and deal with it, but you had to bring those brainless relatives to the Wright Family. The old man is too old to be stimulated, did I stop you then?”
“If you have time to worry about this with me, why don’t you find a way to deal with the media?” Sara Hollander yelled in frustration.
After witnessing the selfish faces of his elders and remembering Master Wright’s generosity and love, Charles Taylor was angry and saddened.
“You almost killed an old man, but not the slightest bit of regret? Is public opinion more important than human lives in your hearts?
Charles Taylor questioned sternly, and then said with contempt: “Don’t be too nervous, even if Master Wright really had an accident, people will not take out their grievances on you. Of course, the mistakes you have made must also be punished.”
Charles Taylor’s seniority is not high, but in the Taylor Family’s status no one can underestimate, Carl Hollander and Sara Hollander dare to treat Eva Taylor as a child, but dare not provoke his authority.
Seeing this, no matter what they think in their hearts, they both hang their heads and decide to visit the hospital at a later date.
“It’s up to you to decide which way you want to go!” With a cold glance at them, Charles Taylor walked upstairs.
As he passed Eva Taylor’s room, his anger-filled mind finally made room for Joe Wright’s request, and he stopped to knock on the door.
When no one answered, he called to the housekeeper who passed by: “Is the lady in?”
The housekeeper bent down respectfully, “Yes, young master.”
“Never came out?” Charles Taylor thought Eva Taylor had locked herself in her room and refused to see anyone since being left behind by Joe Wright.
“Well…” the housekeeper replied hesitantly as his head hung lower and lower, “Miss Royal came by and didn’t seem to be in a good mood after Miss talked to her.”
Royal Awad’s family is not as good as Eva Taylor’s, always comparing with her explicitly and implicitly. Now that the Taylor Family and Wright Family have a dislike for each other, he is sure Royal Awad will not say good things in her ears.
Charles Taylor waved his hand in annoyance, waved away the housekeeper, and then stood in the corridor and said in a loud voice: “Joe Wright asked me to bring you a message, two minutes, and it’s over.”
One second, two seconds, bang!
The door of the room was violently pulled open and Eva Taylor stood in the doorway, trying her best to hide her excitement, but her teary eyes betrayed her.
“What did he say?”
Is it a blessing or a misfortune to love someone so deeply?
Charles Taylor inexplicably generated a kind of sigh, but can not bear to hit his sister’s feelings, can only curl up his lips to comfort: “He asked me to help, on his behalf to apologize to you. You understand the situation at home recently, he is not convenient to come over.”
Apologize, it must be for him leaving in the middle of the proposal, right?
Eva Taylor’s tears glistened, after all, only she knew that what really chilled her was the conversation she happened to overhear in the hospital.
“Brother, what should I do?” She looked up at Charles Taylor, like a little girl who was bullied as a child and went home to her brother for protection, and said in a trembling voice: “Joe Wright doesn’t love me at all, and is willing to marry me only because I am liked by Master Wright and harmless to everyone in the Wright Family. But I… really love him!”
“Joe, at least he’s honest. And whether you love him or not, marriage becomes a responsibility that will sustain you to the end of your lives.” Charles Taylor said with relief.
At night, the black private car drove fast, two pillars of light illuminated the flat road in the distance.
And not far ahead at the intersection, a car like a beast hidden in the darkness, waiting for prey to come.
The pillars of light are approaching, the man presses the gas pedal hard and rams towards the private car –
“Alex Brown, president of Brown Group, who has been missing for two years, was involved in a car accident yesterday while on a business trip, and it is reported that the accident was not an accident, but was caused by a human being. The police have locked the suspect, according to sources, the suspect is a project company’s man surnamed Jiang, the details, pending investigation.”
Project company, the man surnamed Jiang, could it be…
“Clang!”
The fruit knife in her hand fell to the ground, the loud sound interrupted Emma Rosy’s thoughts, back to her mind, before she heard Master Wright’s persuasion.
“If you’re really worried, just call through and ask.”
It is no secret in the Wright Family that Alex Brown has come back from the dead, and while Master Wright is distressed by his granddaughter’s rocky love life and fears that Charles Taylor’s two-year effort will ultimately come to nothing, he respects Emma Rosy’s own thoughts.
“No, what am I worried about him for?” Emma Rosy picked up the fruit knife, subconsciously continued to peel apples, remembered that the knife was dirty, and threw the apples into the garbage, holding the knife in the middle of the ward, a look of indifference.
Master Wright looked at it, could not bear to punish, only raised his hand to turn off the TV, said he had to rest.
Emma Rosy put the knife back on the table, picked up the phone and went out: “I’ll go to the doctor’s and ask… about your recovery in the past two days, you can sleep at ease, call me if anything happens.”
After finding a contradictory excuse, Emma Rosy went to the corridor and closed the door of her room, and then called anxiously the number that was not in her phone but she knew by heart.
After a short beep that sounded like a century, a man’s voice finally sounded on the other line.
Unfortunately, it was not Alex Brown.
“Miss Richard, do you have a message for Mr. Brown?” Eric Chan asked quickly, seemingly busy.
Alex Brown did not bring his subordinates with him when he was on a business trip, Ivy Smith went there only after he was hospitalized, and now Eric Chan went to his side.
Does it prove that the situation there is so serious that even Ivy Smith can’t handle it alone?
Emma Rosy raised her hand to her chest, trying to calm her beating heart, and asked in a shaky voice, “He was in a car accident? The news said… that he… you were in the hospital? Would it disturb… me to call at this time?”
Both worried about Alex Brown’ injuries and afraid of disturbing each other.
Eric Chan has not seen Emma Rosy since they last parted in the rain, but has always helped Alex Brown keep an eye on her every move. A little further away, for the past two years, he would also regularly report her situation to Alex Brown.
So he should be considered the only witness to this mutually missed relationship.
Emma Rosy’s fear and panic at this moment, he can fully understand, and said with a little hesitation: “Mr. Brown has instructed not to disclose his situation to the public, but since you are asking…, Mr. Brown can not stay in this hospital, I’m afraid. .”
“What do you mean, to be transferred to a hospital? How badly is he hurt, and why can’t that hospital treat him?”
Emma Rosy asked, too distraught to keep her heart rate steady, she wanted to see for herself what his injuries were like if possible!
But Eric Chan’s answer was still vague, and when she tried to ask again, he had already hung up.
Throughout the night, Emma Rosy stared at the ceiling in a state of panic until dawn, never imagining that the only reason Eric Chan had hung up in such a hurry was because Alex Brown had found out.
Alex Brown came out of the consulting room, unnaturally stroked the cast on his left arm, and casually asked him, “Whose phone is that?”
“Oh, it’s just a spam phone.” Eric Chan put the phone into Alex Brown’ left pocket and lied.
He couldn’t let Mr. Brown know that he had deliberately described Mr. Brown’ broken left arm as a life-threatening condition, or he would be given a serious lecture.

The suspect is not caught, Alex Brown is injured and has to worry about his revenge, so he has to return to the capital accompanied by Eric Chan.
The rest of the work on the new project is left to Ivy Smith.
As soon as he stepped off the plane, Alex Brown was surprised by the ambulance outside the airport.
“Eric Chan, you better give me a reasonable explanation.” He looked at Eric Chan with an expressionless face and gritted his teeth.
Eric Chan laughed dryly, obviously also doubly helpless: “Mr. Adams heard that you were injured and had to arrange for you to be hospitalized to recuperate, I did not persuade, and did not dare to tell you in advance.
Alex Brown respects this second uncle from the bottom of his heart, so he is willing to listen to his arrangements.
Another point is that many distant relatives of the Brown Family are still watching from the shadows, and if the news of his “terminal illness” spreads, he is afraid it will cause another storm. It would be better to cooperate with the examination to make them give up.
“Let’s go!”
Alex Brown exhaled deeply and took the lead in the ambulance.
The day after Alex Brown was admitted to the city hospital, he dominated the headlines, but the exact extent of his injuries was not yet known.
Emma Rosy was so distraught and uncertain that she went to Master Wright, who had recently been released from the hospital, and Joe Wright, who was resting at home, for advice.
“I have a friend, she and her male friend had some… oh no, should say a lot of misunderstanding, originally very close relationship, but have not contact for a long time. But what about recently, that male friend was injured, and probably very serious.”
Stumbling, finally finished telling the story, Emma Rosy eyed They: “Do you think, she should go to visit ah?”
Master Wright did not pay much attention to her story, while twirling his fingers with the drama, while responding casually: “In front of life and death, past grudges can be put aside. She asked you for help, probably too embarrassed to go directly, why don’t you accompany her.”
