Chapter 162 Emily Was So Angry

Emily was surprised by how suddenly Edgar had become so easygoing.

She had already made up her mind that if Edgar really made her call that number right in front of him, she’d start bawling and beg for a few days grace before the other person could get a word in.

She thought, ‘My mom is so sharp that she’d definitely go along with my act.’

But to her shock, Edgar didn’t push her any further. Instead, he was actually planning to cover her debt

Emily had a vague feeling that maybe that phone call had now changed Edgar’s mind.

She quickly looked at Edgar, her eyes brimming with tears, her voice trembling with emotion. “Thank you, Dad. I know. I swear I’ll never do it again.”

Edgar said, his hands folded on the table, his eyes cold, “Emily, you’re a smart kid, and you know I don’t like people who act on their own.

‘After tomorrow’s Medical Association President’s lecture, I’m sending you abroad for a while. Do you understand?”

Emily knew exactly what Edgar was talking about. She sneaked onto that variety show and caused such a mess.

Right now, the only reason she was still part of the Anderson family was so she could attend the Medical Association’s ecture and try to talk Davis into helping Paula.

Once Davis agreed to their request, she’d be sent packing for real.

She’d be sent away for good.

Sent abroad, no questions asked.

t meant she’d never set foot in Centlandia again for the rest of her life.

She thought, ‘Leaving Centlandia, that was when things would get really dangerous. That person will definitely kill me.

But Edgar isn’t giving me a choice.

He is simply informing me.’

Emily didn’t dare challenge Edgar openly. Her whole body was shaking as she lowered her head and said in a choked voice,” I’ll do whatever you say, Dad.”

Edgar waved her off, telling someone to escort Emily back.

Brandon was about to go over and help her, but Edgar cut him off with a sharp command. “Let your assistant take her back. You’ve got a ton of problems waiting for you at the company. Where do you think you’re going?”

Brandon immediately stopped in his tracks and nodded.

As Emily was being helped up by the assistant and was about to leave the office, she could catch Edgar’s voice coming

from inside.

‘You don’t have feelings for her, do you?” Edgar asked.

Brandon hurriedly denied it, “No way, Dad. Of course not. I’ve always seen Emily as my own sisteṛ.”

Edgar let out a cold laugh. “Chase said he treats her like a real sister, but you saw how they acted together. Makes me wonder that, do you and Emily have that kind of relationship, too?”

Brandon kept denying it, “Really, Dad, we’re siblings. There’s nothing going on between us, I swear.”

‘Remember what you said,” Edgar said, clearly not wanting to keep talking about it. “Even if she and Whitney were switched at birth, you guys have lived together for nineteen years.

‘Blood or not, you still need to keep things appropriate between you two.”

Brandon nodded. “I understand, Dad.”

Then the office door closed completely, shutting out all sound.

Emily’s eyes flickered with icy resentment and cold malice.

She thought, ‘Thank heavens.

‘I still have a chance.

‘I still have my trump card.

Successfully unlocked!

‘I can’t leave Centlandia. No way am I going abroad.

‘If the Anderson family really forced me to go abroad, I’d have to use my own tricks to make sure I stayed put.’

Chapter 162 Emily Was So Angry

Her heart seethed with bitter hatred.

ddenly, her phone buzzed with a new message.

She glanced down at the screen.

Emily’s eyes widened in shook her fingers gripping her phone so tightly it felt like she might crush it. In her gaze, a flicker of agitation and panic flashed.

Her people had sent her a message.

They were staking out both the front and back entrances of Roynfort Broadcasting, ready to nab Kayla the moment the live stream ended.

They sensed something was off and sent someone in to check, only to find out that Kayla had already left the station the moment the show ended.

The last footage of Kayla after the show ended was her waiting for the elevator.

‘She slipped away like that?

*****

As they approached, the lead bodyguard immediately bowed. “Mr. Pierce.”

Ryan nodded, his eyes landing on the woman who had been dumped on the ground by the bodyguards, her arms and legs tied up, completely out cold.
