Chapter 412: Chapter 412: Just Don’t Want to Owe Anything

“Why?” Emily Walker looked at him, originally thinking that even if he didn’t give her the 30 million, it was understandable, after all, that was her uncle, not his uncle.

But since she had already asked for it, didn’t he like her? Didn’t he adore and love her? Then what’s wrong with giving her 30 million?

Uh, although she didn’t really want to ask him for money.

“No reason.” Baron Stuart stood up, picked her up by the waist, and walked towards the private room entrance.

He naturally wouldn’t explain to her about his displeasure.

Emily Walker was carried by him like this and left the Duke Station Throne.

It seemed that Baron Stuart wasn’t going to give her the 30 million.

At night, Emily Walker was still preoccupied with the Adams Family matter.

No matter what, he was her uncle, and if she didn’t help out, she would feel guilty.

Getting out of bed, Emily Walker tiptoed in slippers to Baron Stuart’s study room.

Carefully pushing open the door, she saw Baron Stuart sitting at his office desk with a serious expression.

She gently closed the door and then tiptoed over.

Hearing her footsteps, Baron Stuart looked up and immediately stopped working.

When she came closer, he pulled her into his lap and asked softly, “Why aren’t you sleeping?”

Emily sat in his arms, lifted her head and pressed her lips together for a moment before speaking, “After my father passed away, my little brother and I were kicked out by Elia Parker and her daughter. That night, my little brother got into a car accident, the perpetrator fled, and I was penniless.

I went to my uncle’s house, and he helped cover my little brother’s hospitalization fees and took me in for a few months.”

“To be honest, I didn’t really like my uncle, and I hated his wife and children even more, but he did take me in after all. I want to help him this once, not because of any gratitude, but because I don’t want to feel indebted to his family.”

She turned her head and looked at the man who remained calm, waiting for his response.

Baron Stuart looked up and stared at her for a long time before finally taking out a check from the drawer and filling it out for 30 million.

“It’s for the few months he took you in.” Baron Stuart handed her the check.

If he hadn’t taken Emily in, perhaps he and her would have nothing to do with each other today.

Emily took the check and excitedly kissed his cheek, “Thank you!”

Baron Stuart’s lips curved slightly, watching her face break into a smile, and his mood improved as well.

The next morning

After eating breakfast, Emily held the check, ready to give it to Henry Adams to help him through this difficult time.

But when she came to the Adams Family’s grand entrance gate and rang the doorbell for a long time, there was no response from inside, which puzzled Emily.

Could they all be out?

After reconsidering, Emily thought she’d go to her uncle’s company and see if they were there.

Coming to the Adams Family Business, Emily hadn’t even got out of the car when she saw a huge crowd gathering in front of the building as if something had happened.

Emily got out of the car and walked towards the onlooking crowd, noticing that their gazes were all focused on the direction above. So, she also looked up.

At this glance, she saw a figure standing on the edge of the 20-something-story building, looking like they were about to jump.

Due to the height, Emily didn’t know who was up there, until she heard the murmurs of the people around her and widened her eyes in surprise.

“What’s going on? Who is up there?”

“I heard it’s the boss of this corporation, who embezzled public funds and owes a lot of debt. Now driven into desperation, he’s prepared to end his life.”
