Sawyer’s condition was more stable. The doctor concluded that he would definitely wake up tomorrow night at the earliest, and the morning after tomorrow at the latest.
Emily felt relieved.
That night, she made an excuse and left the hospital. But she didn’t go back to the Gale’s house.
She went to another place.
The door of the room was actually no different from a normal top-grade suite.
However, it seemed to be chilling, perhaps because it was his room.
Emily knocked on the door. It was Liam who opened the door.
Liam didn’t seem to be surprised at all.
Emily had to suppose that they knew her whereabouts well all the time.
Liam’s expression was unacceptable for Emily.
She wondered if they knew she was coming.
Emily felt a stronger bitterness, but there was nothing she could do about it.
“Miss Emily, you are here.” Sure enough, Liam didn’t hide that he knew she would come.
“Why do you know I would come here?” Emily frowned, still unhappy.
She believed that her two cousins, Francis and Joseph, would never expose her whereabouts.
Moreover, they had no idea that she would come here.
If they knew, they would definitely stop her.
“Nothing. Young Master Hunter guessed that you would come.”
Liam smiled and opened the door.
Emily took a deep breath and walked in.
Liam did not say a word and left.
The moment the door was closed behind her, for some reason, she suddenly felt that she returned to the gilded cage.
Emily stood behind the door, staring at the man and clenching her fists tightly. He was sitting on the sofa and drinking wine.
Hunter didn’t even look up as he poured himself a glass of wine while reading some files.
Emily did not know how long she had been looking at him. Both of them kept silence, and the air in the room became even gloomier.
After a long while, Emily took a deep breath and walked towards him.
“Young Master Hunter, can I have a talk with you?”
“Do you think you can enter my room if I don’t agree to talk with you?”
Hunter still did not look up. He finished reading the files and threw them aside, and then he poured himself a glass of wine.
When he was drinking, he leaned against the sofa and glanced at her indifferently.
He was indifferent, but at the very least, he gave her the chance to speak.
After all, he “agreed” to let her in, didn’t he?
“Why did you tell Joseph that you want me in exchange?”
Hunter’s indifference suddenly diverted Emily from what she was thinking before entering the room.
Hunter picked up the glass and looked at her indifferently.
This kind of gaze sank Emily into slight unease.
She never was able to see through this man’s thoughts. She never was able to guess what he was thinking.
When she thought that she knew him well enough, maybe she was just cheating herself.
“Young Master Hunter, what exactly do you want?”
“I want you.” Hunter’s indifference almost drove Emily crazy.
He smiled, “Didn’t I say it clearly?”
Emily did not know if he was serious.
“I don’t think I deserve this.”
After all, their agreement hadn’t come to an end. If he really wanted her, she couldn’t resist.
