Ethan stared at Emma with deep and firm eyes, as if he wanted to find out something. Before he opened his mouth, Hiram had already taken the words over. His voice was gentle, as if he was negotiating with someone. He looked calm, but with an unquestionable momentum. "Emma, I'm sorry for Rebecca, but can we talk about it after Rebecca recovers a little? After all, she is emotional now. I'm afraid that she will get hurt! "
However, to her surprise, the first one who opened his mouth was Hiram. It seemed that he was defending his wife. For a moment, she felt uncomfortable in her heart, but with a faint smile at her mouth, she looked at him leisurely and said bluntly, "Hiram, you are more considerate. But after all, Rebecca is my sister. We have been separated for many years, and on this matter, it's reasonable for me to be a little hasty. I've been worried about my sister's injury and couldn't sleep well these days. I'm afraid that one day that nightmare will repeat on us again. So in order to avoid getting hurt again, I think we can't delay it anymore. After all, my sister is lying on the bed. I just want to give her an explanation today. If you don't agree, I think I have to find another way to solve this matter! "
There was more or less a hint of threat in her words. Emma meant that Alline was to blame for her sister's injury. If the Mo family insisted on defending her, she might find other ways to solve this matter. After all, no matter how wealthy the Mo family was, there was always a way to deal with Alline, but Hiram was angry at what Emma said. He had tried his best to persuade Emma these days, but he didn't expect that she was so stubborn. He deserved it, but Alline didn't do anything to her, especially when he understood what she meant.
He pursed his lips into a line and then pulled them apart with a faint smile in his eyes. "Emma, do you really mean it? "He asked slowly, just like usual greetings.
However, the coldness and toughness in the air were on the verge of breaking, as if something had suddenly smashed down and shattered the flowing ice on it.
Emma almost made it clear to him, but in return, she received more defense for Alline from Hiram. A trace of impatience rose in the bottom of her heart. "Well, it's just a joke. Hiram, why are you so serious? I came here today to solve this matter peacefully, or I wouldn't have been sitting here. We have made a conclusion. Next, it depends on us to solve it appropriately. "Although Emma was dissatisfied, she still softened her tone.
Since she was no longer aggressive, of course he wouldn't press her step by step. With a gentle and harmless smile on his thin lips, he said calmly, "Emma, what do you think we should do? "
Knowing that he had given the topic right back to her, Emma didn't refuse anymore. Although she was unhappy, she said slowly and calmly as usual, "This matter has been delayed for so many days. I also know that you have been trying to find evidence for Ms. Alline and reverse the case, but I wouldn't allow Rebecca to suffer these grievances, especially it was caused by me, but she was injured by accident instead. I have always been guilty to her, but she has always been softhearted and listens to you in everything. If I don't give my sister an explanation, I can't bear it anyway. So now the evidence is in my hand. Since you want to protect someone, and so do I, let's back down and show some sincerity! "
Emma's mind was very simple. Although this trap had been set up for a long time, it didn't mean that he couldn't find out anything. Now, Alline was wronged in this matter, but Emma couldn't watch the time pass with no progress.
From beginning to end, what she wanted was very simple. She wanted to go back to the Mo family and find out the real murderer that year!
