While looking at the familiar cafe, Lauren's heart was filled with many emotions.
Although the person doing the opposite of himself is the same woman, but the identity has changed radically. Last time, Emily was in her best friend's body from doing across the table, but now it's different, she is no longer her best friend, but her niece.
"When did you learn of your own identity?"
After a long period of calm, it was Emily who broke the silence, her face no longer filled with the confidence and calmness of before, but with haggardness.
The haggardness is frightening.
"Not too long ago, but I really didn't think that you and I would become the relationship we are now."
Looking at the coffee in front of her, Lauren had a sick feeling. She had a feeling of regret. Regret for agreeing to meet with Emily.
"Lauren. you should know that I have always treated you as a good friend, why did you have to bring me so much harm during the reception? Does my previous help really mean nothing at all in your heart?"
Emily's emotions got a little out of control and she shouted at Lauren.
"Emily, this is not like your usual self, huh? Usually you are very elegant, but now you are like a little shrew, aren't you afraid that there will be reporters here? Is this the way you treat your aunt?"
Facing Emily's accusation, Lauren's face, still wearing a bashful expression, picked up her coffee cup and just gently sniffed.
"Lauren, you're so proud of yourself now, aren't you? You're soaring to the top, but I'm telling you, you'll never become a phoenix, because you don't deserve it."
Realizing that her actions had become the center of attention in the café, Emily made her way back to her chair, though her tone was still very angry.
"Not worthy?"
Lauren is not slow to put down the cup in her hand, the corners of her mouth hooked up a sneer.
"Emily, tell me, what do you mean by worthy? Are you just worthy? Is that what your tutor taught you, to talk to your aunt in such a tone?"
Lauren's attitude completely enraged Emily.
"Lauren, are you trying to force my hand on you?"
Emily 'Tengdi' stood up and pointed a finger at Lauren with an ironic face.
"Emily, why be so angry, you don't want tomorrow's newspaper to be your front page headline hit, give it up, you and I are aunt and niece relationship, this can't be changed, even if you usually how confident, you have no way to change the sins your grandfather once made."
Lauren calmly called the waiter to the side and served a glass of freshly squeezed juice.
"Lauren, I really didn't expect that you would become so vicious now, and actually give up all the good I did for you, and also make yourself a woman on high, I really admire you, and admire your deliberate."
Emily took a deep breath in order to calm herself to sit across from Lauren, although the face is still very ugly, but the mood is much calmer.
"Emily, these are your grandfather's fine traditions, or else how could I be so savvy? Go back and tell your grandfather that I really want to thank him for giving me so many excellent genes so that I can do what I want to do painfully."
Lauren took a gentle sip of her juice, then picked up the bag by her side and stood up.
"Emily, I don't want to be your enemy, so I hope you can think through what you should do next. Don't let yourself do something you regret."
After leaving a word with a deeper meaning, Lauren turned around and left the cafe.
Lauren had just left when the waiter who had just brought her the juice came up to Emily.
"Miss. Shangguan, it's done, it's going exactly as you planned, are you satisfied?"
The waiter's face showed a greedy expression.
Emily gave a cold snort. She opened her bag, took out the check she had prepared and put it in front of the waiter.
"Take this money and leave here immediately or your life will be in danger at any moment, Matthew will not spare a man who hurts her woman."
Looking at the amount on the check, the waiter's face, with a satisfied smile, carefully put the check away in his arms.
"Miss. Shangguan, don't worry, I have already done the formalities to resign and will leave here immediately, and I promise not to appear in your presence again."
Emily nodded, stood up and went to the waiter.
"Remember your promise, and if you show up in front of me again, I promise that even if Matthew doesn't want your life, I will make you regret coming into this world."
In the narrow phoenix eyes, a gloomy glint flashed. The waiter's face turned pale with fright and she hurriedly kept making assurances. Only when Emily left her sight did she cover her rapidly beating heart and let out a long sigh of relief.
Lauren, who walked out of the cafe, drove her car aimlessly on the street and did not return to the mansion immediately.
After driving on the street for a while, Lauren wanted to make a phone call to Matthew, and only then did she realize that she had just been in too much of a hurry and seemed to have pulled the phone in the cafe.
Lauren turned the car around and went back to the cafe once again.
"Miss, I'd like to ask if you've seen the phone I just put on the table?"
Lauren had to go to the desk and ask the desk clerk for her cell phone because she couldn't find it on the desk.
The staff took out a cell phone from below.
"Miss, is this the phone, please?"
Seeing her phone, Lauren smiled and nodded.
"Yes, this is my phone, thank you for keeping it for me."
The staff shook his head and placed the phone in Lauren's hand with enthusiasm.
Holding the lost and found phone, Lauren's face, showing a smile, was just about to pull up and call Matthew when she felt some discomfort in her stomach and she felt a hot stream flowing out from between her legs.
Lauren realized that something was not quite right and rushed to grab her phone and run to the restroom of the cafe.
When she ran to the bathroom and unzipped her pants, the blood red in front of her face scared her so much that she almost fainted.
