“Emily, you brought so many people here, and you’re all looking so fierce and malicious. I don’t suppose you’re here to play catch-up with me?”
Compared with Emily’s anxiousness, Wendy looked unnerved and very much at ease. She took the clothes that she had picked and walked toward the fitting room. Emily rushed past her to block her way.
“Where is Kate? Tell me!”
“What do you want with my mother? She did something fun today and is in a good mood, so she went abroad for a vacation to celebrate it.”
Wendy looked at Emily’s pale face with an evil grin on her lips.
“The thing she did sounded fun, just like bungee jumping. Oh, you know, right?”
“You!” Emily’s heart tightened. She zoomed forward to grab Wendy by her collar.
The salespeople in the shop were taken aback and immediately went to stop Emily. However, Wendy behaved like it was a regular occurrence. She waved her hand casually, a signal for everyone to retreat.
“Step away, please. I’m talking to my sister. Why are you all so nosy? Go away!”
The salespeople were stunned. They wanted to help their most precious customer who looked as if she had been bullied. They did not want her to be offended, in case she would refuse to frequent their shop in the future. No one would reject a big fat bonus. However, Wendy had referred to that girl as her sister.
“What’s wrong? Can’t sisters talk?” Wendy frowned.
“No… of course not…” A few salespeople exchanged awkward looks with each other.
Wendy’s face sank. “Go away!”
None of them dared to stay, so they scattered away. Henry wanted to go over to them, but Ewan stopped him. He could still see the two sisters from where he stood.
It seemed that Emily had the upper hand, but if they were to pick a fight, he would still be able to rush over there immediately. He did not expect Wendy to turn down help. She even sent the sales assistants away. Emily seemed to have better self-defense skills than her sister, who was a spoiled young lady. However, he was too far away to hear their muffled conversation.
Wendy had a smile on her face. She said, “Emily, this is a public area. Everyone will know that you’re at fault.”
Emily grabbed her by the collar with her trembling fingers. She tried to restrain herself as she knew that her purpose was to find out about Kate’s location. However, it was hard for her to hold back. She knew that Wendy would never tell her.
“What the hell do you want? Why did you do this to Sally? What has she done to offend you so?”
“What do I have against Sally?” Wendy shrugged with no concern. “It has always been you.”
She sneered. “If I have to make things clear, then I’d say you are why Sally suffers so much. Haven’t you realized that yet?”
“So it’s true. One of your people did that to her? Was it Kate?”
Emily’s hands shook so badly that she could no longer control herself. She doubted that Kate’s appearance on the seventh floor and her trip abroad were mere coincidences. Sally had no conflict with them, but what was that Wendy had said? Was that her confession?
“Yeah, we did that. What do you want to do about it?”
“Wendy!” Emily pinned her against the wall of the fitting room.
Her eyes flashed furiously, and her hands continued to shake. She did not reduce her force against Wendy, though. She exhausted all the strength in her body as she wished to tear Wendy into pieces!
“Why? You could have come at me if you wanted me! Why did you do that to Sally?”
Wendy’s eyes swept over her sister to make sure that she did not have any recording devices on her. She had been prepared for Emily’s questions. She used words to get under Emily’s skin, and yet she had not admitted any wrongdoings. She also did not mention anything about Sally’s fall. Even if Emily had recorded their conversation, she did not have any evidence at all.
Wendy could hardly breathe when Emily pressed her body against the fitting room. She had underestimated the girl’s strength! However, her facial expression remained unchanged, and she even laughed at her.
“You are like an invincible cockroach, Emily. I have wanted to crush you for a long time, and I have never succeeded. So, I am targeting your friends instead.
“I let her off easy. I should have found some men to play around with her.”
“How dare you!” Emily was almost entirely out of control.
Wendy had no idea that her words had stabbed Emily’s heart.
In her previous life, Sally was abandoned by the seaside after some gangsters had raped her. Emily could never forget the pain! She never thought that Wendy would have the same idea again! That vicious woman! Why was she so cruel and malicious?!
“If she doesn’t die, I must remember to do so in the future. Would you like to give it a try?”
“Wendy!”
“Unless you kill me, Emily, I will send people to entertain your friends one by one.”
“You have another good friend called Lois, right? She might look a little ugly, but I’m sure those men would still be willing to play with her.”
“Wendy! How dare you! I will kill you!”
Wendy was not at all afraid to stir Emily’s rage that day. Even though she was alone, she was calm and collected. Emily failed to see through her plans because she was still in shock. She did not manage to analyze Wendy’s abnormal behavior.
When they arrived at the fitting room’s entrance, Wendy made sure that there were no surveillance cameras. Her smile disappeared, and she looked at Emily with a fiercely cold look. Then, she took out a knife from her bag and dangled it between them.
She glared at Emily and gritted her teeth. “Not only do I want your friends dead, but I also want you to die! Go to hell, Emily!”
She drove the knife toward Emily…
Henry could no longer see the two of them around the fitting room. He pushed through Ewan to head over to them. He felt perturbed whenever Emily was out of his sight.
Ewan did not expect him to make a sudden move, and Henry managed to push past him. He quickly regained his footing and tried to stop Henry before it was too late.
“Second Young Master Sharp, I assure you that there’s no one there to help Miss Wendy.”
He was the one who arranged the manpower. He had told the truth when he said that no one was with Wendy. He would not lie to Henry.
“They are sisters. Let them sort out their issues. Second Young Master Sharp, why do you want to get involved?”
“Move away!” Henry commanded with a sullen look. “If you don’t move, don’t blame me for my next actions!”
If it were another girl with Emily, he would not have a problem with it. However, Emily was with Wendy, a callous and cruel lady! Furthermore, Emily was too impulsive that day. He was not sure what she would do if she lost her mind.
“Second Young Master Sharp… You!”
Henry’s iron fist landed on Ewan’s face with a loud thud. Ewan stumbled backward due to the momentum. He staggered and was thrown off his balance, so he landed on the ground on one knee.
No one expected the gentle and well-mannered Second Young Master would punch another man! Eldest Young Master Jackson’s best bodyguard tried to dodge the heavy punch, but Second Young Master Sharp was too fast for him!
