Charles Taylor had confessed everything to Master Wright when he brought Emma Richard back, and on hearing that, Master Wright spoke on his behalf, “Charles got you back six days ago and has been looking after you in the room ever since.”
“I mean … I haven’t been anywhere else since I was rescued?”Emma Richard tentatively pursued the question.
Receiving Master Wright’s gesture, Charles Taylor nodded slowly: “That’s right. The day before I rescued you, I received a phone call from Paul Johnson, promising him the money for the ransom, and it seems he betrayed Marisa Miller and fled the country with the money.”
About the process of the transaction, Alex Roberts had sent him an e-mail afterwards. And he took the initiative to mention it at this time, just to distract Emma Richard’s attention.
As a matter of fact, Emma Richard immediately became agitated when she learned that he had let Paul Johnson go: “You let him go? Why didn’t you call the police? You can’t trust a guy like him, what if he’s doing a joint show with Marisa Miller again?
Charles Taylor opened and closed his lips, slightly helpless: “I didn’t think about it that much at the time.”
Emma Richard’s life was at stake, and if it could be solved with money, no one would risk going to the police. Besides, he wasn’t there at the time of the incident, so how would he know what Alex Roberts was thinking?
As they continued to talk about the incident, they were afraid that it would be easy to reveal their weaknesses, so Master Wright changed the subject and told Emma Richard not to think too much and to get well.
The matter has come to this point, there is no point in talking about it.
Emma Richard exhaled deeply, is acquiescent, thinking that people have disappeared, are nowhere to find, … perhaps only her imagination.
However, at this moment Emma Richard does not know, Roberts Group has suffered a series of blows, there has been a financial crisis, the relevant departments to intervene, even its partner companies are subject to investigation. And the Wright Group’s life-saving materials company is also under review and investigation.
Joe Wright rushed out this morning to deal with this matter.
Eva leaned back in her seat, glanced at the sea of food on the table, shook her head and snorted: “When things go wrong, treats are first, and today I finally saw it with my own eyes.”
At the other end of the table, Joe Wright looked embarrassed.
The materials company was under scrutiny, and the goods stored in the warehouse would naturally be seized and released only when the source of compliance was confirmed. He is already trying to get through, the current dinner is a banquet to invite the relevant people.
When he met Master Wood and Eva at the entrance of the hotel, they also knew about the matter and seemed to have the intention of withdrawing from the conversation, so he had no choice but to invite them to join him, hoping that the banquet would be arranged properly.
He did not expect that Eva would actually give him a hard time on the spot.
The good thing is that Master Wood knows what is important and gave a wink to Eva to stop talking.
After this morning’s news, Eva is extremely disappointed with the Wright Group, thinking that they are only showing love and talking business, but have no strength, so she advised Master Wood to quit.
Master Wood is ready to give Joe Wright a second chance.
Unfortunately, the banquet was really boring to him.
Master Wood and Eva got up to say goodbye, Joe Wright sent outside the room, his heart suddenly annoyed.
He also understood that Master Wood would not like this kind of occasion, but he really could not understand the way of the two men, afraid that even without the opportunity to explain and request, directly received a letter of goodbye.
After all, Master Wood had moved out of the Wright Family some time ago and was living near the studio. If he quietly ran off to some village to live in seclusion again, and Eva went abroad directly, where would he find a designer even if he got the materials?
Now, all his efforts were in vain!
Joe Wright kicked at the wall and took a deep breath before returning to the room.
At the main table were the leaders of the relevant departments, and the business peers next to him could not resist the desire to ass-kiss, and immediately raised their glasses when they saw him enter.
“Mr. Wright you can make a mistake ah, Director Li came to be a guest in the middle of a busy day, you dare to neglect, must be punished with three glasses of wine!”
Joe Wright secretly frowned.
But the words have been said, in order to give full face to Director Li, Joe Wright painfully punished himself three cups, and then toast Director Li three cups, in a sound of applause and applause just settled, just that man began to babble again.
“In fact, in the younger generation of entrepreneurs, Mr. Wright has been considered the best, it’s a pity that his sister … Oh, the one called Emma Richard, is too much of a drag, how many times out of the heterosexual news, causing Wright Family The “shame.”
Emma Richard is also the rightful heir to the Wright Family, familiar with the Wright Family colleagues, more deeply know Joe Wright’s love for this nominal sister.
So when this statement was made, it was as if a switch was flipped in the room, and all of a sudden there was silence.
Joe Wright turned the glass in his hand, his face was smiling, but his expression was already cold: “Mr. Wang, we are all happy to gather together, your mouth can eat and drink as much as you want, but it is better to talk less.”
The man’s eyes glared, quite annoyed: “What do you mean by that? I have never been treated this way, you must apologize! And did I say that I was wrong, your sister was already a messy private life, everyone can see – ah!”
It took a few seconds for the crowd to recover from the shock after the cry of pain, and they hurriedly pulled Joe Wright, who was furious, and saw that his eyes were red and he looked as if he wanted to kill someone, while the beaten Mr. Wang fell to the ground, covering his face and moaning in pain, all hesitating and not knowing what to do.
Joe Wright broke free from the restraints and rushed forward to kick the man hard, without saying much, the jaw-dropping expression was horrifying enough.
In the end, it was so serious that the hotel manager secretly called the police.
It is all too common to have trouble at a drinking table. Director Lee left long ago to avoid suspicion, the man who was beaten was taken to the hospital, and the people went home one after another after explaining the situation, only Joe Wright was taken to the police station.
He and Eva Taylor engagement probably no one knows, so when the police contacted the family, directly called Eva Taylor phone. But when his fiancée rushed to bail, his fiancé’s attitude was a shock.
“Please inform my family that I will not go with her.”
When he saw Eva Taylor, Joe Wright turned around and walked back. The officer who brought him out was wide-eyed, thinking that he had never met such a person who had to stay in the holding cell since he joined the job, except for the mentally ill.
Eva Taylor was also shocked, but more embarrassed.
It was true that they were fighting and breaking up, but she had been trying to get them back, hadn’t she? And now, in front of all these people, he couldn’t show her any dignity?
“Joe!” If you’re still angry about the other day, I’ll go out and apologize to you, okay?” she whispered, almost pleading, “I’m done with the paperwork.
Joe Wright looked straight ahead and didn’t even look at her.
After a long time of stalemate, when she didn’t leave, Joe Wright turned to the officer and asked, “Why didn’t the police contact the family to make bail?”
The officer couldn’t speak, looked more embarrassed than Eva Taylor, his eyes turned between the two a few times before he stiffly explained: “Uh … this, isn’t she your … fiancée? ”
“We’ve broken up.” Joe Wright said without a ripple.
Pop–
Like a slap on the face, hot and painful. Joe Wright’s indifference, and the shock and pity flowing from the police officers, but also one after another attack.
Eva Taylor shook her head stiffly and staggered back, staring at Joe Wright incredulously, hoping to see a hint of intolerance in his expression, even if it was an apology. But the response was still unrelenting coldness.
Finally, she could no longer support, aggrieved and hurried away.
It was only then that Joe Wright turned his head and looked in the direction she had left and said softly, “I’m sorry.”
The Roberts Group’s successive accidents and the Wright Group’s implication are not coincidental, but rather a covert setup by someone. During this sensitive period, the Taylor Family should stay as far away as possible so as not to be affected.
And Eva Taylor, she had better take this opportunity to give up on him completely.
On the other hand, Eva Taylor ran out of the police station all the way, forgetting to even drive, her eyes blurred with tears, as if she was outside the world.
The red light hangs in the air as she crosses the street, eliciting numerous angry honks.
On the side of the road, Eva Taylor sits on a bench, still haunted by the memory of the scene, and Royal Awad hands over her milk tea, frowning and reprimanding, “Have something to drink. Why didn’t you look at the cars when you were crossing the road?”
Eva Taylor then came back to her senses and tried to curl her lips, showing a smile that was worse than crying: “Thank you cousin, if it wasn’t for you, I’m afraid …”
Royal Awad she waved her hand: “Forget it, hurry up and say what happened to you again?”
That said, in fact, she had already guessed that probably.
Eva Taylor needs a person to talk to, but does not have the courage to face what happened in the police station, so she had to say perfunctorily that she had a fight with her boyfriend.
As expected, Royal Awad satisfied smile, then make a look of heartache, think the time has come, then intentionally or unintentionally lead the topic to Emma Richard.
“There are some things cousin should not say, but … that Emma Richard, is there anything unusual recently?”
The implication of this statement is clear, Eva Taylor knows Royal Awad’s thoughts, but still her heart shakes.
Because from Emma Richard disappearance, Joe Wright will find excuses to break up with her, she admitted, stalking him and warning the female staff of these two things she did not do right, but why Joe Wright did not mention before, but at that time to take out to her quarrel?
From the expression, Royal Awad sensed her faltering, and pretended not to know and continued, “Don’t worry about it, I’m just guessing, after all, they were once married and live under the same roof, even if they didn’t feel it before, it’s inevitable that love will grow over time.”
Eva Taylor suffered another blow, hands unconsciously clenched, milk tea cup gradually deformed, cold liquid overflowed.
Sight sweeping over the pale green liquid on the floor, Royal Awad took her arm: “What’s wrong Eva , did …”
“No!”
Eva Taylor immediately denied, but the heart of a completely opposite idea, and could not help but ask: “Joe to Emma should be brother and sister, right, Emma is not in love with Alex Roberts? It seems that she has never been attracted to Joe, including before.”
Royal Awad nodded in agreement: “That’s natural, otherwise Joe Wright would have been so good to her that they would have gotten married long ago, what’s the matter with you?”
Eva Taylor felt her whole face burn again, barely restraining her embarrassment, and asked in a shaky voice, “Joe, is he that good to Emma …? How come I don’t see it?”
“Ah?!” Royal Awad looked at her in amazement, “It’s all over the internet, and you’re close to their brother and sister, would you not know?”
Yes, if you search Joe Wright and Emma Richard’s names on the Internet, all kinds of news will come to you. Some people lament their brother-sister relationship, but most gossip netizens are interested in discussing their affair.
She, Joe Wright’s rightful girlfriend and even fiancée, may not be as famous as his “sister.
After Royal Awad’s provocation, Eva Taylor’s suspicion and dissatisfaction with Joe Wright quickly shifted to Emma Richard, but if she had known what was going on and who was at the Wright Family home at the moment, she would not have done so.
Inside the mansion, Candy Hall stood in the hall, aggressively questioning Joe Wright’s whereabouts.
It had been a few days since the appointment was made for a week, but Joe Wright had not paid the money, instead, he did not answer her phone calls or text messages, so she decided to give him a good show, to let him know that she is not easy to bully.
“Let your young master come out, dare not admit what you do, what kind of man? With that, she casually waved her hand, and the antique furnishings next to her broke with a sound.
The housekeepers and servants of the Wright Family were not fools, so they swarmed to stop the strange woman, but before they could touch her clothes, they heard her shouting.
“Who dares to touch me? I’m pregnant with Joe Wright’s baby!”
Master Wright had just been invited downstairs and was so shocked that he almost fell down the stairs, but the maid was quick to help him.
After stabilizing himself, Master Wright waved his hand, and the crowd voluntarily retreated to the sides to make way for a pathway, then he walked up to the woman who was making trouble, his old but still sharp gaze looked at her for a moment, paying particular attention to the location of her stomach, and was not angry: “What did you say?”
“I’m pregnant, Joe Wright’s!” The woman lifted her jaw, rather smugly.
Master Wright did not hear, but his grip tightened: “What is your name, when and where did you meet Joe?”
He has seen all kinds of people in his life, and his eyes are as sharp as a torch, if the woman across the table is lying, it is difficult to remain calm under his questioning.
However, the woman still stood tall: “Hum, my name is Candy Hall, about a month or so ago and … no, I should say Joe Wright to pursue me and let me live in a villa along the river, and pay me monthly living expenses.”
Give a house, give money, is not this a mistress?!
Master Wright categorically did not believe his grandson would do such a thing, and was about to scold the woman for fraudulent blackmail, when the woman preempted him by saying, “By the way, that villa is under the Wright Family name, right, and it is full of my things.
There is a simpler way, hurry up and get Joe Wright back to see me, settle this matter as soon as possible, and save your Wright Family from losing face!”
“You …” Master Wright covered his chest and staggered backwards, the housekeeper stepped forward to help him, and in an anxious tone, he urged the maid to fetch medicine.
After taking the medicine, he took a deep breath to adjust for a moment, and then looked at Candy Hall, the angry look tinged with a trace of helplessness.
Although it has not been verified, he knows very well that even the most daring woman cannot come to the Wright Family to make trouble without evidence, not to mention the important matter of reputation. The Wright Family has many properties, and the small, inconspicuous cottage by the river, where would any crook pay attention?
He thought he was busy with business, or he was still thinking about calling off the engagement, so he didn’t pay much attention to it, but now he thought it had something to do with this woman.
“Get a guest room and put her up first.” Master Wright instructed the housekeeper in a deep voice.
The truth is how, still need to wait for Joe Wright back, if the woman is pregnant is true ….
Seemingly anticipating this outcome, Candy Hall painfully agreed, when Emma Richard just woke up from her nap and heard the argument, came out to check the situation and looked down at the crowd in bewilderment.
“Grandpa, this lady is …”
Master Wright sighed and didn’t answer positively, looking as if he was ashamed for Joe Wright: “You go and rest, don’t bother about that.”
Living in the same old house, even though Emma Richard spent most of her day resting, and even though Master Wright had instructed the servants not to chew on her, she soon found out Candy Hall’s identity.
Of course, with Candy Hall’s proud posture, it was hard for her not to notice.
Joe Wright was still running around for the material to be sealed. Master Wright understood and did not summon him home right away, but two days later, Charles Taylor and Eva Taylor, the siblings, came to the door first.
