Oliver's Substitute Bride (Oliver and Jessica) novel Chapter 240

In order to meet Gavin, Emily went to beg for help and was almost taken advantage of by others.

Later, she had no choice but to beg her father Terence for help.

Terence refused harshly. "We can't get involved with the Kim family. I've long heard that some people deliberately united to destroy them."

"Father, then why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"If I had told you earlier, wouldn't it happen?" Terence lit up a cigarette. "Do you think I want to watch the Kim family being destroyed?"

When he knew that someone was going to give the Kim family a hard time, he asked someone he trusted to pass the news to the Kim family. He only made the hint but was then betrayed.

Therefore, when Gavin bought that budda head, he deliberately said that Terence had seen it before.

He had no choice but to stand by and ignore. Otherwise, he would lead the war to the Youngren family.

There were dozens of members in the Youngren family, so he didn't dare to act rashly anymore. Otherwise, their safety might be threatened.

"Then what should I do now to help the Kim family?" Emily was so anxious that she began to cry in front of Terence.

Seeing his youngest daughter's crying, he only sighed, "Forget that Gavin."

Previously, he asked her to break up with Gavin.

But his daughter had grown up, the more disciplined he was, the more rebellious she became.

He could only turn a blind eye and wait for them to be incompatible and broke up.

"No, I won't give up on him. If I were separated from him at this time, I wouldn't forgive myself."

"Emily, someone is trying to destroy the Kim family on purpose." Terence couldn't help but tell her the truth.

She was stunned. It seemed that something must have happened to Gavin.

She had been uneasy because she was afraid that her father would be dragged into this.

"Who on earth wants to harm the Kim family?" She asked.

"Stop trying to help them. Just break up with him. It's good for both of you."

After that, Terence left the study.

Later, after Gavin was bailed out, Emily stopped working in Birmingham for the time being.

They didn't go to meet each other much.

A few days later, Gavin asked Emily out and went to meet him on the shore of Bin River, where they had their first date.

When she saw him, she felt really bad.

The man standing in front of her was no longer that handsome, cynical man.

He had lost a lot of weight and his eyes were full of vicissitudes.

She hugged him.

He hesitated for a few seconds before he held her tightly in his arms.

He knew that this might be their last hug.

From now on, they had to go in separate ways.

"Emily."

"Gavin, no matter what happens, don't give up hope." She looked at his haggard face, and her heart was aching.

"I will remember your words." He said.

"Whatever you need me to do, I can do it for you."

He forced out a smile. "Thank you. I just want you to take care of yourself."

He had told her before that he must marry her and take care of her for the rest of her life.

At that time, he was in high spirits, and it seemed that everything was under his control.
