“Heh, you are here.”
Snowy clasped her hands and looked at Robin Bailey, mockery was obvious in her eyes, “Stop him! Only if he agrees, Lands Corporation can survive and all of you can keep your job.”
Soon, a whole bunch of people stopped in front of Robin Bailey and Elise, and they all sounded pretty angry and righteous, “You can’t leave, and Robin Bailey, you have to give us an explanation today.”
“You caused all the trouble, and you are running away?”
“You will have to give us an explanation, or you won’t be leaving today.”
One burly man blocked the doorway. Clearly, they would not let Robin Bailey leave.
And at that moment, Robin Bailey, holding Elise, walked towards the door and lifted his eyes. His eyes, as dark as ink, swept across the crowd.
“Get out!”
At once, everyone inexplicably felt frightened, their expressions changed dramatically, and they backed away as if they were facing a fierce beast.
Robin Bailey helped Elise and walked out the door. Then, they heaved a long sigh of relief. When they thought about what had just happened, they couldn’t even breathe, let alone stopping them.
“Should we go after them?”
Someone hesitated for a moment and asked Snowy.
“Rubbish! There are so many of you and you just let them go?”
Snowy cursed. but in fact, she still felt a twinge of panic. Just when Robin Bailey looked at her, she felt a knife on her neck.
She felt that Robin Bailey could have killed her with his eyes if he had wanted to.
Even now, she still felt panicky.
Snowy took a long sigh. She looked over at Robin Bailey and Elise and sneered, “Where can you go? It’s not we that are after you this time.”
On the way back, Robin Bailey kept wiping those eggs on Elise with a paper towel. He kept apologizing.
“You don’t have to apologize.”
Elise felt touched when she saw how gentle Robin Bailey was when he was wiping those eggs off her and how he protected her in his embrace just now.
That sense of security touched her inexplicably.
But soon she shook her head, and with a look of disappointment in her eyes she said, “I really didn’t expect them to do something like this to me. I started Lands Corporation, and I promoted most of them, but now, they are all targeting me. Did I do something wrong? I really don’t.”
“You did nothing wrong.”
Robin Bailey reached out his hand and touched Elise’s cheek, “It’s the world that’s wrong. I would change the whole world for you if you wanted to.”
“When did you learn that, you sweet mough.”
She had a moment of joy in her heart, but then, she couldn’t help but feel disappointed. She knew that Robin Bailey was just comforting her. He’s just a security guard, so how could he change the world?
“Well, let’s go home and take a shower.”
Elise adjusted her expression. She didn’t want her joy to show. After all, she was a high and dominant super girl! Oh no, she was already a high and dominant super wife now.
However, after returning to the villa, they discovered something was wrong.
The door was locked.
Rodney’s expression was extremely complicated, and he wanted to say something, but couldn’t.
He adjusted his expression. But Karen yelled with her hands on her hips, “They called us. Our stock has dropped three points since yesterday. You know what three points means? That’s a lot of millions.”
“If it continues to fall and gets to the bottom, the ten percent share will be completely useless. This is all because of Robin Bailey and you’re responsible.”
“In three days at the most, our company, and even our entire family, will be bankrupt under the Lucas Corporation’s crackdown. Even if we have got kicked out already, Elise, you’re part of the family, so don’t you think you should talk to Robin Bailey?”
Karen had already received David’s call, and she already knew how serious this matter was. If Robin Bailey didn’t apologize, and Lands Corporation went bankrupt, then their ten percent would be useless.
Once that ten percent became worthless, the family would not be able to afford their current lifestyle and she would not be able to afford her luxuries and card games.
Luxuries were her life.
So, today, they had to get Robin Bailey to agree.
“Mom.”
Elise looked at Karen and looked reluctant, so she looked to Rodney, “Dad, can you…”
However, before she could finish her sentence, Rodney waved his hand, “Enough.”
“Dad, you’re willing to help us.” Elise thought her father wanted her mother to stop talking, but Rodney looked over at her.
He sounded somewhat reluctant, “The family have talked to me on the phone, too. They told me that if Robin Bailey would just kneel down and apologize to Master Lucas tomorrow, then they would allow us to move back.”
Originally, they were from the main branch, but after what happened seven years ago, they were kicked out of that family. This was the greatest regret for Rodney.
Now that he had a chance to go back again, he sure would not just let it go.
“Dad!”
Elise looked at the two, who were now all against her.
They both wanted her to give up Robin Bailey, but she didn’t want to, because she had already given up Robin Bailey once.
That time, she swore in her mind that if Robin Bailey did nothing wrong to her, then she would not give up on him again.
This time, she had made the same decision.
“Come on, let’s go to the hotel.”
Elise pulled Robin Bailey and headed for the door. Robin Bailey froze, but in the next second, there was a touch of tenderness in his eyes. He felt he was so lucky to have such a wife.
After the two left, Rodney frowned and said, “Is it… right?”
“Of course, tomorrow we will have to make that Robin Bailey kneel to Master Lucas. What is that Robin Bailey? A wimp! And what is Master Lucas? An heir to such a group! They can’t be more different.”
Karen didn’t even need a comparison to know that Reginald Lucas was so much better than Robin Bailey.
She should have just let it go.
It was just a necklace. It was not even for them. It was for that bastard Leslie! How could they miss out on a Master Lucas for a bastard! They should have kicked Robin Bailey out and taken in Master Lucas. After all, she had always wanted such a son-in-law.
