Brodie has always been an impatient person and usually just calls Emma for three hours without seeing results, the call, then, will come in again.
At the moment.
When Emma saw the call from Brodie, her heart was in her throat and she was so annoyed that she wanted to slam her phone.
But she dared not refuse to answer this person's phone, afraid that Brodie will give what is in his hand to Alina.
If it really came to that, she can guess what price Emma would really pay for it.
Eventually, she picked up the phone.
"Hello."
"Why hasn't it arrived yet?" The man, very impatient and annoyed, angrily said to Emma.
Emma was already irritable, and now she was pinching her brow with a headache.
She said, "It's not that I won't give it to you, it's that I don't, right now, have any money."
"What? You bitch."
"My account has been frozen." Not surprisingly, Caleb’s account has been frozen too.
This is definitely the handiwork of Alina.
And to think it was Alina, Emma hates even more.
Why did that damned woman have to push her like that? Wasn't it enough to humiliate her since she was a child?
"You tricked me?"
"I'm not fooling you, my account is now frozen and won't be unblocked until this is over."
"Then it seems that..."
"Brodie." Hearing the dangerous tone, Emma's tone was heavier.
Even if the man didn't say it outright, Emma almost always knew exactly how this man was going to threaten her.
Taking a deep breath, she said to Brodie, "We are grasshoppers on the same rope, I advise you not to be a jerk."
"I'm on the same rope as you? Are you crazy?"
"It was you..."
"Do you have any proof?" Just as Emma finished her words, she was directly interrupted by Brodie.
Yes, is there any proof?
At this moment, her heart was heaving.
Yes, she had no proof, there was nothing on her side of anything that Brodie did, but Brodie had evidence of what she had done.
"Even if I didn't, if I accused you, you'd be..."
"Are you tired of living?"
The man, hearing the threat in Emma's tone, sounded more dangerous.
Now Emma was naturally scared and very tormented, yet even so, there was nothing more she could do.
There was nothing left for her to do but to rise to the occasion, except to hear her say to the other side of the phone, "Don't push me, okay?"
She was, literally, about to be driven mad, and there was nothing more she could do about it.
"Hmph."
"..."
"You've got three more days." The man said in a malevolent tone.
Emma's heart was heaving.
"I said, my account..." Without waiting for her to finish, the man simply hung up.
And now Brodie is not going to listen to anything, he just needs his money.
Emma is going crazy.
"Ah." A hysterical, frantic scream came out from her mouth.
