"Yes, Wendy is my granddaughter, back then..."
"Grandpa!" Before Patriarch Gale could speak, he was interrupted by Wendy.
Wendy took his arm and said anxiously, "Grandpa, I am very uncomfortable, I have to go back. I will go back soon."
"Wendy..."
"Grandpa, I...I'm going to throw up! Grandpa, take me to the doctor, my stomach hurts!"
Wendy was sweating profusely!
Damn it, how could they bump into Emily here and let Emily know that she was a member of the Gale family?
If this dying old man told Emily about Talia, it would be even worse!
Although Emily was not so easy to fool, she had to use the excuse.
"Grandpa, my stomach really hurts, I'm so uncomfortable, and I’m going to see a doctor!"
Was this nausea or a stomachache?
However, seeing his granddaughter look so uncomfortable, Patriarch Gale couldn't think about anything else.
"Emily, I will take Wendy to the doctor first, and then I will contact you to have a meal with your parents, you..."
"Grandpa!" Wendy whispered!
"Okay, I'll take you to the doctor right away." Patriarch Gale was also anxious and he helped Wendy walk out of the crowd.
As he walked, he didn't forget to make orders, "Hurry up, get the car here! Hurry up!"
Seeing them walking away, Emily squinted and looked at their distant figures.
Wendy was clearly faking a stomachache or nausea, she could see through it at a glance.
It was also because Patriarch Gale was too kind to see clearly.
Or, he was just too nervous about his "granddaughter"?
Granddaughter... how could Wendy be his granddaughter?
"Emily, who were those just now? Why were you with Wendy?"
Sally and Lois had not dared to come over just now, and they had been watching for a long time.
"They were from the Gale family of City L." Emily said lightly.
"City L...the Gale family? They have the same surname as you." Sally didn't react for a while, "Are they your relatives?"
Lois suddenly widened her eyes and looked shocked, "The Gale family of City L? Is it that Gale family? The one that runs pharmaceutical business?"
Emily nodded, still looking at the figures outside the crowd.
After they got in the car, they couldn’t see anyone anymore.
A security guard from the school cleared the road for them in front of their car. They drove out quickly and soon disappeared.
Wendy was the granddaughter of Patriarch Gale from City L...Was it a joke?
Could it be that she wasn't Charles's daughter?
"Why is Wendy with them? It seemed that they were family."
Lois also felt weird. Although Wendy and Emily had always been at odds with each other, they were still sisters.
If they were relatives, how come they didn’t seem to know Emily?
"I have no idea." Emily didn't intend to tell them what Joseph said just now.
It was a bit complicated; she couldn't explain it to them clearly.
The phone in her bag vibrated, and Emily picked it up in a slightly quieter place, "Henry?"
"I'm at your school. Should I take you to the company or to the apartment?" She heard Henry's deep magnetic voice.
"What are you doing in my school?"
Emily was a little surprised. At this point, he should be at work.
"You have no class in the afternoon; don't you want to go back to your company or apartment?"
"I can go back by myself..."
"I’m worried about you. Where are you? I'm coming to you." He insisted.
Emily felt a little warm, knowing what he was worried about.
However, it was in broad daylight in school. There was nothing to worry about.
"I am in Skyler University, with Sally and Lois."
