The reporters here were startled. They did not know how to do a report on this drama.
But they would definitely report about Miss Juliana's terminal illness.
This would be the headline.
They were just hesitating if they should write about what that girl had said.
Just as they were thinking, several sturdy men of the ZH Clan walked up to them and warned them one by one.
"Delete everything about that woman. Otherwise...."
This was clearly a threat and an order!
All the reporters nodded with a flattering smile.
Atwood sneered and sounded colder. He poked his walking stick at the carpet as he said slowly but sinisterly,
"Emmett ... I don't know if what that woman said is true. I hope it's not, otherwise...."
Atwood thought, "Otherwise, I'll kill that Elaine even if you try your best to hide and protect her!
"Dad! The engagement will go on. I love Mariana. It's a pity if I could not marry her. Priest? Let's start over."
Emmett gritted his teeth. His body tensed up as he tried his best to hide his emotions.
No matter how disgusted he was, he forced a smile and held Marina's hand. Then, he looked up at the priest.
It was as if Sally had never appeared.
The priest began to recite those vows again.
Emmett stared at him blankly. He felt that he could not hear anything. He just saw the priest's lips moving.
However, deep down in his heart, he was thinking,
"Elaine, can you understand why I'm doing this?"
"Marriage is nothing more than a piece of paper, a useless certificate to deceive the world."
"True love, however, may not show up in the public."
"If this is the only way to keep you safe, I can only do it!"
After the priest finished the vows, he waited for Emmett's reply again.
Everyone held their breath and waited for Emmett to say something.
Emmett closed his eyes and sighed,
"I ... do."
Marina, who was beside him, finally got relieved.
Sally, who was dragged thirty meters away, just got away from Jasper's mouth. Just as she was panting, she heard what Emmett said on the microphone.
"I do ... I do...."
Sally crouched down and cried out.
...
Jasper lowered his head and looked at Sally, who was crying in an inelegant posture. He rubbed his hands and got very anxious.
"Oh, stop crying, will you? Why are you crying?"
"Emmett was cursed by you in front of so many people, and you were really mean."
"You've said everything, but you're still crying?"
"I think Emmett and I really want to cry."
Jasper turned down the corners of his mouth and looked in the direction of the ceremony with a sorrowful expression.
"Bullshit! You men are all bastards! You're lying to us women!"
"You rich boys are even shittier!"
"Emmett wouldn't cry at all. He's a two-faced bastard. He lied to Elaine and got engaged just now!"
"Didn't you hear him? He said, 'I do.' He's happy to get engaged to that women, Maria or what!"
"He couldn't be happier now!"
"He's so despicable and shameless, yet he is the happiest now!"
"He would not cry at all."
Jasper sighed and shook his head.
"You women are childish."
"Tell me: do you think this ceremony is more important than Elaine's life?"
"What?"
Sally stopped crying. She was shocked and looked up at Jasper with tears.
"What does it have to do with her life? Don't scare me! Bastard!"
Jasper frowned and got annoyed.
"Thing are not all black and white as you think. There are many colors that are too dirty to be distinguished."
"Emmett ... Yes, he is the young master of the ZH Clan. He has power and the clan supports him. It is a big organization that has lasted for dozens of years."
"However, his father Atwood stills takes control of the Ninja."
"You probably have never heard of it. In short, Ninja is a group of assassins in the ZH Clan. But it's kind of above the whole clan."
"And Emmett is trying to take Ninja over bit by bit. He needs more time."
