Zephaniah couldn’t imagine what Annie must have done.
“Tell me where she is!”
“Calm down, getting angry won’t change a thing. In fact, it will cause you more troubles,” Zephaniah hugged Yadanar tightly.
“I don’t care!”
“I care!” Zephaniah yelled. “Just endure it for now, I will make Annie pay for what she has done – a hundred, no, a thousand-fold!”
Yadanar’s eyes turned red. It took her a lot of effort to endure the suffering and anger that she felt.
Zephaniah took this opportunity to carry Yadanar in his arms, straight into the bathroom. He then placed her in the bathtub and washed her down with warm water.
“Trust me, trust me!”
Hearing Zephaniah repeat these two words, Yadanar suddenly looked up at him like a child. Seeing this, Zephaniah felt even more guilty, “I shouldn’t have left you here on your own. From now on, I will take you everywhere I go. I will never leave you alone again.”
Yadanar had already put aside her intention to immediately seek revenge, but her fists remained tightly clenched, “I will definitely destroy her. Definitely!”
In this aspect, Yadanar was very similar to Emma. She never appeared weak in front of others, displaying a clear distinction bet**en herself and other women.
However, the difference bet**en Yadanar and Emma, was the fact that the more quiet Emma was, the more dangerous she was. Because, the more quiet she was, the more calculations she was doing in her mind to overthrow her enemies. On the other hand, Yadanar’s reactions were a lot more explosive.
If Annie was standing right in front of her, there was no doubt that Yadanar would tear her apart without hesitation.
Zephaniah’s heart ached. This incident reminded him of how he failed to protect Yunxin in the past. He seemed to always allow those around him to get hurt.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you to get some rest.” After helping Yadanar clean up, Zephaniah carried her towards her bedroom, “Have a good night’s rest and calm yourself down.”
“Go do what you need to do. I won’t add to your troubles,” Yadanar said as she sat on her bed.
Zephaniah was about to say something else, but he was suddenly interrupted by a phone call from Lithika. Zephaniah immediately picked up the phone and handed it to Yadanar.
Yadanar lowered her head and cried out, “Mom…”
This simple word made both Lithika and Zephaniah’s hearts break.
“Hand the phone to Zephaniah,” Lithika said angrily.
Zephaniah overheard and quickly took the phone from Yadanar’s hand. Of course, he was already prepared to be scolded.
“You better clarify for my daughter, otherwise, I won’t play nice.”
“Auntie Bai, don’t worry. No matter what it takes, I will help Hadassahng return to normal.”
“You better do as you say,” Lithika warned. “Although we don’t have a man in the family, we aren’t easy to bully. If you can’t protect my daughter, then hand her back, I can handle the matter on my own.”
“Auntie Bai, trust me.”
“Comfort my daughter instead.”
After speaking, Lithika hung up the phone. Of course, Emma’s l*ps curved slightly upwards as she overheard the entire conversation from the living room.
This was how Eric’s mother should be like. This was the dominance that Eric’s mother should possess.
She was nothing like the shameless Wren.
Of course, no one could afford to provoke anyone in the Roborts Family. Since they dared to do it, then they would need to face the consequences.
…
After putting down the phone, Zephaniah reached out his hand and gently patted Yadanar on the head, “It was my fault for not protecting you well.”
“Why did you do so much for me behind-the-scenes?” Yadanar questioned confusedly. “My role, my game, and all the other random matters, why did you do what you have done?”
“You are my signed artist, what’s wrong with what I have done?”
Yadanar looked deep into Zephaniah’s eyes; she didn’t want to miss the slightest change in his exp**ssion. A moment later, she said in a weak voice, “Annie said that you’ve been biased towards me.”
“You’re my signed artist. If I want to be biased, what can she do about it?” As Zephaniah spoke, he began to sound like a military general that found it hard to understand his own reasoning.
Yadanar looked at Zephaniah seriously. Without a word, she let out a slight sob and lay down on the bed, “Go do what you need to do. I’m going to get some sleep.”
Zephaniah originally wanted to say something else. But, at a time like this, he couldn’t let his guard down as there was too much drama happening on the outside.
Yadanar was in quite a predicament. On one hand, she was upset because of the humiliation she had suffered, but on the other, her heart was slightly moved by all that Zephaniah had done for her.
Was there actually people in this world that offered help for no reason and was there actually someone who was biased towards her from the bottom of their hearts?
…
The next morning.
Lisa finally gave Emma a response. She had arranged for Emma to meet with Director Matt from ‘The Savage Wars’ and the meeting location was already confirmed. They were to meet in a private room at the Intercontinental Hotel.
Apart from a few good friends in the industry, not many people managed to invite Emma to events, not even if they were large scale events. Yet, for the sake of Yadanar, she personally attended to the matter. No one would believe it if they didn’t see it with their own eyes. After all, who was Emma and who was Yadanar in comparison?”
“Do you want me to accompany you?” Eric asked as he put on his striped suit, moments before Emma was to head out.
Emma picked an outfit and shook her head, “You don’t need to make an appearance for something small like this.”
“Listen. No matter the time and place, all I care about is your body.”
Emma giggled as she hugged Eric from behind, even though it was a very light hug, “Did you know? I really enjoy hugging you from behind. This way, I can completely hide behind your broad shoulders as if it’s the world’s most reliable wall.”
After hearing this, Eric stood still and let Emma hug him as he provided her with the most tangible sense of safety.
“Americans are hard to handle. If you come across any difficulty, remember to give me a call.”
“OK,” Emma nodded.
A moment later, Emma stepped out of the villa. Just outside, she ran into Luke who she hasn’t seen for a long time.
“You’re back.”
“Madam, please get in. The President asked me to drive you to the hotel,” Luke said as he opened the car door.
Emma nodded and boarded the car. But, after the car door closed, she asked, “Did you find anything useful from your investigation overseas?”
“No, everything was normal. Wren survived the fire from over a decade ago and there was proof that she had spent some time in the hospital because of it. When she awoke, she was a little different in personality, but the doctor said it was due to post traumatic shock. Apart from this, I didn’t find anything else,” Luke replied.
There was a fire…
With this information, Emma was reminded of the burns on Lithika’s body. It seemed, the issue with their identities started from that moment.
But, it wasn’t currently time to dwell on this issue, because the person she needed to first help was Lithika’s daughter, A.K.A Eric’s sister.
It didn’t take long before Emma, Luke and their accompanying bodyguards arrived at the Intercontinental Hotel. At the same time, the director of ‘The Savage Wars’ and the main person in charge was already sitting casually on the sofa.
“Emma!” Director Matt was filled with joy as he saw Emma. He had already heard about her from multiple sources. “I never thought I’d get to meet such a legendary woman. I’m quite surprised.”
Emma smiled as she shook hands with the two men and said in perfect English, “It is also my honor to meet the two of you.”
“But, we don’t know each other, so why did you want to see us?” Matt asked as he propped his chin up on his hand.
