Beverly sat back in the car. Her entire body was trembling with anger. This was a fraud! She had spent 99,000 on that chair, and then Elsie spent another 1,000 to bring it home. Now it was exactly 100,000!
Adding on the 500,000 she used to rebuild the swimming pool for Vincent, she was really running out of money!
"Mom, are you OK? What happened?"
As the car left, everyone heard Elsie's shout from the car as it was leaving. Everyone was looking at each other and did not know what was going on. Was it that they were so happy because they purchased a chair?
On the other side.
As soon as Beverly and Elsie left, Emily moved towards the door with her fastest speed. When she reached the door, the expression in Vincent's eyes when he walked into the private room appeared in her head. She thought for a moment and started heading back.
Ferne, Randy, and Armando were standing at the door of the private room. As they saw Emily coming, they immediately straightened up and shouted together, "Hello, Mrs. Scavo!"
This scene was scary and weird as one could imagine.
Imagine three men were standing at the door and called a teenager their sister-in-law. Emily's first reaction was to pull up her hat and cover her face. Then, she reached out her hand to Ferne.
Ferne was so excited that he was about to shake Emily's hands.
Before their hands reached, Emily, who Ferne adored, spoke in a soft voice, "Could I share half of the money you got from selling that chair? It was me who put the lipstick."
Ferne was shocked and speechless.
Randy laughed, "It seems like our little Mrs. Scavo is short of money." He rubbed his chin, "I remember something. We have not given Emily our greeting gifts yet."
Armando seemed to have finally found a chance to show himself. He quickly took out a card and handed it to Emily, "The money inside has six zeros after the first number."
Emily wanted some cash because she wanted to take a taxi later, and she did not have enough cash for it. She looked at the card in her hand and looked worried. Does a taxi driver accept payment with a card?
On the other hand, Randy and Ferne said with surprise, "Oh my god. Armando, you are too generous! Isn't this money for your wedding in the future?"
Because Armando's parents gave him so much pocket money that he could not spend all of it. Besides, his money was saved in one card, so his brothers made fun of him by saying that he was preparing money for his wife for the future. They did not expect Armando to give the card to Emily at the third time they met her.
Armando said, "My mother thinks I am useless."
Ferne was confused, "Why does she say that?"
"I cannot even spend 500,000 a month," Armando said melancholy. He lowered his head embarrassedly, "And that is why my mom always thinks that I am useless."
Emily was speechless this time.
Where did this feeling of envy come from?
Ferne and Randy were disdainful when they heard what Armando said. When the three of them were frolicking and teasing each other, the doors of the private room was opened. Rex was standing behind the door and made a gesture to Emily, "Miss Emily, please come in."
Randy unfurled his fan and half of his face was behind the words "Full of Eager" on the fans. He smiled at Emily with unspoken words in his throat. And then, he said to Emily, "It seems that we have wasted so much time that Vincent is unable to wait any longer."
Randy emphasized the last few words and said them slowly.
Ferne rushed into the room and cupped his fists, "Mr. Vincent, I have brought Emily here."
Emily was shocked.
Rex did not know what to say.
Armando was also speechless.
Randy went in and used the handle of the fan to knock on Ferne's head, "Come on, Randy. Didn't you notice that Mr. Vincent was staving? Hurry up and order some food."
Ferne echoed, "Randy was right."
Last time, they did not have the chance to tease Vincent because Arabella was here. Now that they had this precious opportunity, they would try everything they could to make fun of Vincent.
Unexpectedly, neither Vincent nor Emily reacted to their jokes at all.
Vincent sat steadily on the main seat. He was holding a teacup with his left hand as he was enjoying his tea. His eyes swept over his brothers as if he never knew them. No expression was on his face.
Ferne was immediately hurt by the coldness of Vincent. He buried his face in Armando's arms, "How could he do that to us!"
Randy was a little injured, too. Just as he was about to bury his face in Armando's arms, Ferne fiercely pushed him away, "Go away, Armando's warm embrace belongs to me!"
Randy had nothing to say.
He turned around to look at Emily who came in, and Rex who stood behind the door with no expressions. He immediately lost the mood to ask for comfort, and the only thing he could do was swing his folding fan with all his strength.
Emily directly walked to Vincent's side. She did not sit down. Instead, she just stood there, "The car is parked on HS Road."
Vincent put down the teacup. He tilted his head to look at her. A low and sexy voice slid out of his mouth, "I see."
Emily looked at him for a while. After that, she silently pushed the teacup in front of him aside, then reached out her hand to his chest.
Everyone in the room was extremely astonished. After all, many women were trying to approach Vincent but were chased out by Vincent's guards immediately. Vincent would never need to take any action by himself because he did not even like to touch women!
Therefore, when they saw Elsie and Vincent kissing each other in the lounge at Mr. Ian's birthday dinner, they were shocked. There was a moment that Ferne and Randy wanted to express their most sincere gratitude to Emily, thanking her for appearing so that they could relax. Among all these years, they were worried that Vincent would take a fancy to any of them. They were even preparing to introduce some men to Vincent. Fortunately, they did not!
Of course, they had also thought about what type of women Vincent would choose to spend the rest of his life with. Most of the women in their minds were similar as Arabella, but they never thought that their future sister-in-law would be so young.
She was full of bravery even though she looked small. She even dared to reach over to Vincent's chest, and put her hands on it!
Emily just wanted to see if they re-bandaged his woods properly. She lowered her head and saw that Vincent was wearing a rope that was hidden behind the collar of his shirt. It was the same color as the one she was wearing.
Her heart trembled slightly. She could not help herself but stretched her hand towards his neck. Before she reached it, Vincent held her hand.
Vincent's palm was very warm. He was surrounded by the fragrance of tea. The smell of tea was suffused with nicotine, which formed his unique cold smell.
Emily looked at Vincent calmly. From such a close distance, she could see his eyes. She saw herself in his dark and bottomless eyes.
She could feel that Vincent liked her.
It was different from how Eliot felt about her. It was extremely possessive.
At the very moment, there was no need to ask him why he was here. It was because of her.
"Do you want to marry me?" Emily stared at Vincent.
Her mother told her that a couple should love each other till the end of their lives.
Her mother also said that she should never share her man with others.
Emily could not remember all her mother had said. The only thing that impressed her was that night. Her mother cried, "Men can never be trusted. Emily, you should never trust a man easily. They are all liars and will only deceive your love."
No one would be able to cheat her again.
Emily told herself that she no longer had any unnecessary feelings, so whoever wants the rest could take it all.
