The cruise is at the port, and the passengers disembark one after another.
Emma sat in Archie’s car and returned to the Sandford Family.
The moment she entered the house, Minlan cried out in alarm, “Emma, why are you back? Didn’t you say that it was a journey of two days and one night?”
“Mom, there was an accident, so I came back early.” Emma replied.
“What accident? Who had an accident?” Minlan asked in surprise.
Emma was so tired that she leaned against the sofa. Minlan quickly brought her a cup of water and she took a big gulp before saying, “Mom, I almost drowned in the sea. Someone ambushed me and pushed me into the sea from the splint.”
“My God, who is so vicious to harm you?” Minlan was so scared that her heart almost stopped beating. Her astute eyes hurriedly swept over her daughter, “Emma, are you alright?”
Emma shook her head. “I’m fine. Mom, it was Archie who saved my life. He jumped into the sea to save me at all costs.”
“Archie?” When she heard this name, Minlan’s face changed and became very pale.
Emma looked at her mother and said very firmly, “It is him, mom. He saved my life. I owe him a life.”
“Emma, you are on Young Master Yoseph’s cruise. How did Archie save you? Could it be a trick of his to get someone to push you into the sea? Then, there will be a scene of a hero saving a beauty, and he wants to win your heart?” Minlan had a suspicious personality. It made her think of another possibility in an instant and her expression turned ugly.
Emma was shocked and could not believe that her mother would think so badly of Archie.
“Mom, the person who pushed me into the sea. She was dragged into the sea by me. She was already dead. Furthermore, she was definitely not someone arranged by Archie. She was my former friend Tasya, the popular female celebrity now. She hates me because Yoseph likes me. She was infatuated with Yoseph because of love. That’s why she wants to kill me.” Emma quickly explained the matter in detail, afraid that her mother would really accuse Archie unjustly.
“Tasya? That popular female celebrity?” Minlan also knew how to watch TV dramas and knew about Tasya.
“Yes, that’s her!” Emma nodded her head vigorously, “She was jealous that Yoseph liked me and wanted to push me into the sea to kill me.”
“How can she be so vicious? She deserved it. Is she really dead?” Minlan thought about how her little daughter, whom she found with great difficulty, was almost murdered again. She was so angry that her liver was trembling.
Emma’s beautiful little face was trembling. There was sadness on her face. “Yes, she fell into the sea. I’m afraid they won’t even be able to find her corpse.”
“She deserves it. If she didn’t harm you, she wouldn’t have died in the sea.” Minlan did not pity Tasya’s death at all.
“Mom, I owe Archie my life. How do you think I should pay it back?” Emma looked at her mother with some anticipation, hoping that she could give her a satisfactory answer.
Minlan was stunned, her face changing between red and white.
“Emma, he is a man, it is only right to save you.” Minlan did not know how to answer so she answered randomly.
Emma was a little disappointed, “Mom, you know how to repay kindness. A drop of water needs to be repaid in spring. Furthermore, he saved my life.”
When Minlan heard this, her face turned pale.
“Emma, do you still have thoughts about Archie?” Minlan had an angry expression.
Emma knew that her mother did not like her relationship with Archie. This seemed to be because when her father was elected as the president, Archie did not support him and even stepped over him.
“Mom, I’m a little tired. I want to go upstairs to rest.” Emma did not get the answer she wanted and her heart was also depressed.
Minlan looked at her back and suddenly said, “He saved your life. Your dad and I will think of a way to thank him.”
When Emma heard this, her heart became even more empty.
In the end, no matter how good Archie was to her, her parents did not want her to date him. This was no longer a personal grudge. It had already escalated to a political struggle.
It was too sad. Why did her love involve political interests?
In the evening, Emma saw a black luxury car parked outside the house.
She stood up and saw Yoseph’s figure appear at the door with a fruit basket in his hand. There was also a bouquet of bright and glistening roses.
“Emma, are you better? It’s all my fault that I didn’t take good care of you.” Yoseph’s handsome face was full of self-blame and guilt.
Emma frowned and softly replied, “I’m fine. Thank you for your concern.”
“This rose was specially ordered for you. You must take it. This is a token of my appreciation. I hope that you can get out of the nightmare as soon as possible.” Yoseph personally delivered the rose to her.
Emma looked at it. It was neither right nor wrong to accept it.
The flower language of the rose was a passionate love.
If she accepted it, did it mean that she had accepted something?
“That, you came to see me, I am already very happy, this flower. . . ”
“Young Master Yoseph is here!” Minlan hurriedly walked down the stairs. When she saw the flower, she immediately cried out in surprise. “Aiya, this is a very rare type of rose. It must be very expensive.”
Minlan quickly walked over and took the rose. Then, she stuffed it into Emma’s arms, who was dumbstruck, “Emma, hurry up and take it. Look, how good Young Master Yoseph is to you. He gave you such an expensive rose.”
“Auntie, I came specially to apologize to you. Emma followed me out to sea this time and almost got into an accident. I am still shocked. I hope you can forgive my negligence.” Yoseph said with a sincere face.
Minlan was really more and more satisfied with Yoseph, this son-in-law.
He was modest and polite, and he was handsome. He also cared about his daughter. More importantly, he was gentle and blond, and he respected her very much.
Where could she find such a perfect man? She felt that it was a pity that he did not cherish this silly daughter of hers.
Emma stiffly held the flower. From the corner of her eyes, she saw her mother’s satisfied expression and her heart was especially flustered.
What should she do? Her mother seemed to be more and more satisfied with Yoseph.
“Cough. . . Mother, I’ll go upstairs and raise the roses.” Emma wanted to run away.
Minlan pulled her back. “Emma, you can talk to Young Master Yoseph. Leave this flower to the servants to take care of.”
Emma wanted to escape but could not. She could only look at Yoseph with a dry smile. “Do you want tea? I will make some for you.”
“Emma, thank you!” Yoseph still liked the feeling of being taken care of by her. Even if it was just a small matter like making a pot of tea for him.
In the end, Yoseph was persuaded by Minlan to stay and only left after dinner.
During the meal, the communication between Dexon and Yoseph became more and more like a family.
This made Emma very embarrassed. Heavens, under this kind of atmosphere, she didn’t even dare to breathe heavily.
No, tomorrow, she had to find Archie to relieve her boredom.
The two conditions that he mentioned previously should be counted.
Then he should have no objections to stealing from him tomorrow.
Thinking of this, Emma’s small mouth could not help but curl into a smile. But when she thought about how she was eating at this moment, and that her parents and Yoseph were both there, the smile on her face disappeared.
She really didn’t want her marriage to become a sacrifice for political interests. If she wanted to marry, she had to marry the man she liked.
Only in this way would her life not be in vain.
Ever since she experienced the suffocating feeling of death in the sea, she realized that human life was very fragile.
Therefore, to be able to live in the present, she must really cherish it. Furthermore, she must not waste time.
She had decided, no matter what kind of choice her parents wanted her to make in the end, She only had one choice, and that was Archie.
The next morning, Emma sneaked out the door.
She deliberately went out with her mother on her back, afraid that her mother would grab her to practice with those socialites and ladies, which was why she learned so many messy things.
Emma drove the sports car straight to the center of the city.
She parked the car by the side of the road and looked through the window at the tall building that stretched into the night sky. It stood straight at the center of the building and became the landmark of the city. When she thought about the man she loved controlling the entire building, Emma’s heart started to jump wildly again.
