Filed To Story: My Accidental Bride Is a Fashion Circle Queen Novel
What Emma wanted to know wasn’t something difficult to find out. Lisa simply had to do a quick search and she got what she was looking for. Most importantly, Luke also helped her out. The couple quickly grasped onto the details of the two rich boys and found records of their time spent in drug rehabilitation facilities.
More importantly, Luke also found hints pointing to the possibility that they were back in the habit. From what he heard, they were currently looking for a seller.
They were much too brave. Whose industry did they think they were in? Eric was firm on his opinion against artists doing drugs. He had zero tolerance!
So many police sacrificed their lives every year in the war against drugs. Who was going to bring them back to life?
So, it didn’t take long before Emma held the evidence she wanted in her hands. After all, she had access to the best information resource.
“Emma…what do you plan on doing now?”
“I will have to wait and see what the three boys plan to do. As long as they leave Herman alone, I’ll let the police handle it quietly. But…if they do anything, I will have no choice but to teach them a lesson.” Emma paused for a moment and continued, “It will also be a lesson for Herman.”
“It’s your birthday that day, though…”
“It’s not as important as protecting Herman.”
Since she had promised her mother to take care of him, this was her responsibility…
“What if Lafayette does something wrong?” Flossie queried.
“We will talk about it when it happens… To be honest, I’ve heard him sing and it is really not bad. So, I’m looking forward to hearing him perform on Wednesday.” After speaking, Emma looked at herself in the mirror and laughed, “Actually, I haven’t been a good sister or daughter in the past. Before I have children with Eric, I want to play out these roles properly. I hope the child we have in the future will be optimistic, diligent and have a healthy mind and body.”
“Have you decided when you would have children?”
“I’m thinking the end of the year. I’m turning 27 and Eric is already 33; it’s time we should have a child,” Emma replied.
“Does Mr. Roborts know this?”
“He always understands me without me saying anything,” Emma smiled as she continued to remove her makeup.
Of course, Emma’s words changed Flossie’s opinion of her once again.
Before meeting Emma, she had thought she was just like any other celebrity: eating, drinking and playing around all day. She assumed, since she had a lot of money, food and clothes wouldn’t be an issue. As a result, she would live quite a shallow life.
But, after getting to know her, she realized she was a person filled with emotion. In fact, she could be described as quite an interesting person.
She did not follow the crowd or keep up with tends.
She did what she wanted and loved who she wanted.
She was happy to step down from a high position at any time and wouldn’t complain if she was stuck at the bottom.
She seemed quiet, but she maintained her strength. On the surface she appeared weak, but in reality, she knew exactly who her friends and enemies were.
That’s how she gained Eric’s adoration…
A person should be able to handle both highs and lows.
…
This time, the set was located in a rainforest. As the conditions were harsh and it was night time, it didn’t take long before Emma and Craig ran out of energy to continue.
Because of standing continuously under the rain, Craig ended up with a fever.
Xiner ran around taking care of him, handing him medicine and an ice pack. In his fuzzy-minded state, Craig saw Xiner and mumbled, “If I knew you’d be this worried, I should have a caught a fever a few more times.”
“Stop joking,” Xiner punched him in the ch*st.
“Are you going to keep me company tonight?” Craig asked pitifully as he sat in his chair, looking nothing like a 30-something-year-old man.
“If I don’t keep you company, who would? If I wasn’t your assistant, what would you have done?”
“I still would have had to deal with it even if your on my own.”
These words somehow tugged at Xiner’s heartstrings, so her voice softened, “Won’t you feel lonely with no family or friends by your side? Humans are social animals; it is impossible for someone to spend their entire life on their own – unless their ill.”
Xiner understood this feeling well; only illness had the ability to push everyone away. Apart from this, there was no other reason why a person would prefer to be on their own.
“It’s cause I can’t be bothered!” After speaking, Craig closed his eyes and did not say another word.
Xiner still had a lot of questions: why did Craig insist on her being his assistant? Why couldn’t he be bothered to do anything? And if he couldn’t be bothered to do anything, then why was he so serious when it came to acting?
He definitely had a story to tell! Xiner was certain.
W
But, what could she do to make him open up to her?
In the middle of the night, Craig suddenly started shaking uncontrollably. Xiner was so frightened that she immediately covered him with a blanket. Craig took advantage of the moment to pull Xiner in for a hug, but she reacted with a slap across the face, almost breaking his nose.
“How could you take advantage of having a fever to get a hug, jerk!”
“How did you know I was fine?” Craig complained as he held onto his nose.
“You were overacting too much!”
“Really? Then I need to hold back a little next time,” Craig took a deep breath and laid back down. “I’ve seriously got a headache, I’m not lying.”
“When you got sick in the past, who took care of you?”
Hearing this question, Craig fl*pped over and mumbled, “You’re disturbing my sleep… Go out.”
“You moody b*stard.”
But, the more he acted this way, the more Xiner was certain…
…he definitely had a secret.
