Mom, Please Marry Daddy novel Chapter 88

"Father, you go first. I have something to talk with Emily."

Charlie hesitated, but he looked at Star. Seeing that she was persistent with her eyes, he knew that he couldn't persuade her to go away. He looked at Emily, who was still smiling. Since Emily returned home from abroad, he couldn't see through Emily, his niece. He could only shake his head and chase after Michael without saying anything.

Star stared at Emily, who stretched out her arms and leaned against the sofa leisurely. "So you can say anything you want to say. I don't think I have anything to say to you."

Star glanced at Mike and Vincent, who were sitting at the side of Emily like two guardian gods, the executive president and the vice president of the of the World International. They were both very powerful and popular outside, but they were willing to stay by the side of Emily now.

Even if Star was not good enough, she knew that if Emily merely relied on the identity of the president's wife of the World International, she would not be able to get the sincerity of the two of them. Even if they pretended to be humble and tough for the sake of Brian, she still needed Brian to give her the respect.

But now it seemed that this was not the case. Both Vincent and Mike gave Emily respect from the bottom of their hearts. As for Brian, Emily's husband, who had been dealing with documents since they came in, he gave her absolute respect.

Everything she once dreamed of, she envied and she pursued was lost now. She did not hesitate to destroy anything that Emily wished for, but she got nothing now, which was exactly what she strove to destroy.

Even though Emily had nothing at some time, even though she had been despised, expelled from the Xia clan, and even without the protection of her so-called family, she was still superior and radiated a unique light, and then she made the people who laughed, sneered at, hurt her, and received the punishment they deserved.

Silence followed. It was deathly silent. Vincent, Mike were about to leave, but apparently, Emily didn't care much about the situation, so they wanted to watch the play here of course. Besides, the show that Emily performed was absolutely excellent, and they didn't want to miss it. However, the silence now was so depressing.

On the contrary, Brian, who was sitting behind Emily, was in a calm state all the time, dealing with the documents in his hand as usual. He would completely leave everything about Star to Emily to deal with.

"Your gaze made me think that you're living a life that is as hopeless as death. Do you want to give up of the world? What's wrong, Miss Star? The fame, wealth, status and love you pursue now don't matter to you anymore. I can't see them in your eyes."

Star smiled, and her pale face made her smile look even more embarrassed. "Emily, I am very jealous of you."

"Well, I've known that. And you've also said that. There's no need to repeat it now. Or do you want to do something to me?" Emily said jokingly.

"What can I do to you now? And with my current identity, what can I do to the wife of the CEO of the World International?"

"Who knows? As an old saying goes, a hundred eyed man should die without stiffened."

"Should I thank you for thinking so highly of me?"

"You're welcome."

"You are just as arrogant as before. That's what makes me jealous crazily. I can stand your status, but I can't bear that you take Sawyer away from me. I have only him. So I want to hurt you and keep the love, but I didn't expect it will still hurt myself in the end."

When Emily heard these words, a great deal of bitterness could be sensed, but she didn't care and just listened aside. She felt that she just heard some boring words.

"What? Are you admitting your fault in front of me now? This isn't like what you would do."

"Yes, you think so. In your eyes, I am a woman who spares no pains to get what I want by all means, including hurting the innocent. I tried to keep what I want by my side, but I didn't want to do that. I was forced into a dead end. I thought I could win you with some means, but I didn't expect that I would get nothing in the end."

"Do you want to wake up and turn around?"

Star smiled and said, "Go back? Where is the way to go back? I can't go back anymore. If my heart is dead, what's the use of going back?"

Ever since she got married with Sawyer, his cold attitude towards her as if she didn't exist at all had gradually stopped the beating in her heart. She gradually calmed down, and stop the thought that she would win everything regardless of the consequences.

Everything was far from what she had imagined. If it was a plot seven years ago, then the relationship she had worked for seven years would end up with a result that she had never imagined. She had always believed that she was not wrong, but no matter how she felt right about this, no one could understand.
