Chapter 161: The increasingly bizarre developments
Although she was followed by Wang's mother, Lauren sat by the pool as usual, breathing in the fresh
air outside.
"Miss, would you like something to drink?"
The sun was really hot outside. Although there is a sun umbrella. But Wang's mother still feels as if the
sunlight can penetrate her skin.
Lauren put down the fetal book in her hand and gave a light smile to Wang's mother.
"Wang Ma, I'm not tired. If you are feeling tired, you can go to your room to rest, and it's almost time for
dinner, don't you have to prepare dinner for the young master?"
Wang Ma shook her head with a bitter smile.
"Although the young master came back to live these days, but every day came back very late. And
every time, he drank like a drunk. I really don't know, what happened in the past few days to make the Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
young master so miserable."
Lauren lifted her phoenix eyes.
"You say he comes back drunk every day?"
Lauren had been locked up in her room for the last few days, so she knew nothing about Matthew's
affairs.
"Yes, and the strange thing is that Miss. Shangguan hasn't been back to the mansion for the past few
days. I wonder if the fact that the young master would get drunk has anything to do with Miss.
Shangguan."
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart. Wang Ma's words made Lauren's heart.
Produces a burst of tingling.
It seems that Emily in his heart, really occupies a certain place, otherwise would not her departure, will
make Matthew such a pain.
Lauren's face showed a bitter smile as she gently stroked her stomach.
"Wang Ma, I'm a little tired and want to go back to my room to rest, so you should go down and rest
too."
Lauren stood up. He wanted to go back to his room to rest. Just as she stood up, she heard the sound
of Matthew's car coming back. She subconsciously looked up. But saw the car rushing directly towards
her direction.
"Ah."
Lauren cried out in fear and hurriedly ran to the back. But her speed, simply can not be compared with
the car, see the car is about to hit their own, Lauren had to helplessly close their eyes, hands
subconsciously covered the stomach, waiting for the pain to come.
Thankfully, the car stopped just a meter away from her, with a long trail of brakes behind it.
"Matthew, do you really hate me so much that you're going to let me and the baby inside my belly, die a
horrible death under your car?"
Lauren stood up and rushed straight to the car door, slapping vigorously against it, looking at the man
inside with a pained face.
Matthew opened the door directly, not paying any attention, because of his own movements, and let the
door has been leaning Lauren fell to the ground.
Looking at Lauren, who had fallen to the ground, Matthew, who was already drunk, suddenly had a
strange glint in his eyes, but soon, his face, the original drunkenness returned.
Although he hid it quickly, Lauren, who was sitting on the floor, still caught it clearly She was a little
surprised and didn't understand why Matthew, who was drunk, had such a look in his eyes
"Matthew, tell me, what the hell is going on?"
Knowing that Matthew must have encountered some situation, otherwise he has always been spirited,
is not as haggard as now.
"What's happening?"
Matthew laughed out loud, his originally handsome face was excessively hideous and terrifying looking
because of the excessive force.
Matthew suddenly pulled Lauren up from the floor with great force, pulling her by the collar of her shirt
and pulling her into his arms.
"Did you know that because of your good friend, I lost
Nearly ten million dollars is now under the suspicion of all the shareholders. Because of your good
friend, I am now in the group, completely driven empty by those few shareholders, becoming a
president without any real power, now are you satisfied?"
Anger made Matthew take out all his anger, all of it, on Lauren's body.
"You mean Emily?"
Lauren blushed profusely, unable to believe she had heard such news.
"No, Emily loves you so much and with you two having an intimate relationship, how could she set her
man up? No, that's not true."
Lauren shook her head violently in disbelief.
"Don't be talking, Lauren, all the things are blamed on my Matthew's over negligence, which caused
the situation today. But don't worry, how could I, Matthew, be defeated by a woman? What you see
today is just an illusion. It won't take long for you to understand. What I'm going to do,"
Leaving a period of frantic laughter in his wake, Matthew stomped on his slightly drunken feet and
headed upstairs to his room.
While watching Matthew's departing back, Lauren had a creepy feeling.
Lauren, back in her room, hurriedly took out Emily's business card from the drawer and plucked her
phone number.
The phone rang for a long time before someone answered, but the person who answered was not
Emily, whom he was familiar with, but an unfamiliar man's voice.
"Hello, is Emily there, please?"
Never heard each other's voice, Lauren hesitated half a day, or asked the other side.
"This is Wook, Emily is on break. May I ask what's up?"
Lauren could feel the cold air travel down the line to her body.
"Can you put Emily on the phone for me, I have something I want to ask him."
The man did not speak for half a day and waited for a long time, just when Lauren wanted to hang up
the phone, the man's voice came to her ear.
"Wait a minute, I'll give the phone to the lady right away."
After another long time, Lauren was finally on the phone and heard Emily's voice.
"Emily, it's Lauren, do you have time now?" Hearing Emily's voice, Lauren was a little excited.
"I'm here, go ahead, what's going on?"
Emily's voice was very weak and interspersed with coughing and coughing sounds.
"Emily, are you sick?"
"Lauren, what exactly is it that you want from me?"
Emily's voice was a little impatient.
"I want to ask you if the reason Matthew is now being ostracized by shareholders is because you,
Shangguan's Group, withdrew the resort's funding."
"Don't be talking, you wait for me now at the cafe near Yin's Group, I'll be waiting for you there." After
saying that, Emily hung up the phone.
The beeping sound coming from her ears. It made Lauren even more surprised. She remembered that
she seemed to have heard Matthew say earlier that Emily was now in a foreign country, but why did
she ask herself to a cafe near Yin's Group?
The more she thought about it, the stranger it became, Lauren simply grabbed her bag and left the
room.
What made her even more strange was that Wang's mother, who had always followed her in the past,
seemed to have stopped following her after Matthew left.
Lauren, who was in a hurry to get out of the house, did not pay much attention and left the mansion,
not noticing at all that the two stern gazes on the second floor were locked on her body. Until she sat in
the cab.
"Young master, won't you send someone to follow Miss. Li?"
Wang Ma, who was standing beside Matthew, really felt a little strange and didn't understand what the
young master was thinking.
"Wang Ma, go down and rest, and don't come out of your room for the next few days, or you can go
back home for a few days."
"Back home?" Wang Ma looked at Matthew with a puzzled expression.
"Go back home, I'll give you a big vacation for a few days, and I'll have someone pick you up in a few
days. And didn't you say that your son is sick, just so you can take this opportunity to take good care of
her."
Knowing that Matthew arranged this. There must be something going on, Wang Ma had to go back to
her room and simply pack up her clothes, then turn around and leave.
After making sure Wang's mother had left, Matthew also picked up his car keys and left the mansion.
Café
Lauren, who had been sitting in the cafe for half an hour, hadn't waited for Emily, which made her even
stranger, constantly looking at the time on her wrist.
"Sorry, I'm late, are you a little anxious to wait?"
Just when Lauren wanted to leave, Emily sat down opposite Lauren with the help of Wook.
"Emily, what the hell is going on? You usually don't like wearing sunglasses the most."
Seeing that in broad daylight there are still sunglasses that can cover most of her face, Lauren is even
more strange, and a breath seems to surround herself instantly.
Emily removed the glasses from her face, and when she saw a bruised Emily, Lauren's mouth opened
wide in surprise.
"Oh my God, what the hell is going on here Emily, who the hell did this to you?"
One of Emily's eyes was simply too swollen to open. The look was very scary.
"It's my grandfather, you didn't expect that, did you?"
Emily put on her sunglasses again, took the coffee that Asahi brought up and gently took a shallow
taste.
"It's impossible, I've met your grandfather before. He is an amiable old man, especially he loves you so
much and has always loved you like a baby, it is impossible for him to do something to hurt you."
''Ha, ha, ha''
Emily let out a sharp laugh, which she stopped only when she realized that the guests next door had
their eyes focused on her.
"Lauren, what you saw was all a bit of a sham, as to what really happened in it, I'm sure you'll
understand later, but please give this to Matthew."
Emily gave a wink to Asahi, who understood, nodded, took out a check from her folder, and placed it in
front of Lauren's face.
"Ten million?"
Lauren covered her mouth in surprise when she saw the contents of the check.
"This is the 10 million dollars we put in upfront, as for the next amount, I will pass it to Matthew via
check, you give this to him first, he can get through the hard time now, those shareholders will not do
anything against him after seeing this money."
Lauren carefully put the check in her bag.
"Emily, why don't you give it to Matthew yourself? And you two, aren't you already together? If you were
the one to give this check to him, I'm sure he would be happy."
Although it hurts to see Emily and Matthew intimate images, but for Emily who has helped himself,
Lauren still hope that she can be happy, even if this happiness is based on their own pain.
The corners of Emily's mouth, slightly hooked upward, curved in a bizarre arc.
"Lauren, I know you love Matthew very much, I'm really sad about the picture you saw that morning,
but don't worry, I won't snatch the happiness from your hands, between Matthew and me, it will only be
two parallel lines that can't intersect, as for this check for you to pass on to him, I have my own
reasoning, in a few days I will appear at the I'll show up at the resort's steep reception in a few days,
and I'll tell you more about it then, so go back first."
Knowing Emily's character, what she doesn't want to talk about, no one can make her talk.
Lauren had to nod, pick up her bag, and leave the cafe.
"Wook, follow the plan, and remember, don't let this Lauren die right away, I want to watch her suffer
little by little, little by little, closer to death."
The expression on Asahi's face was a little less than natural. The right hand was clenched into a heavy
fist and placed against his stomach. A painful expression was on his face.
"You had another seizure?"
Emily looked at Asahi behind her with a worried face, and Asahi nodded.
"A little, but don't worry, I'll do what you've asked me to do, now I'll send you back to the hotel and I'll
have someone do your thing."
Emily nodded, handed her hand into Asahi's large hand, and the two left through the VIP lane of the
cafe with extremely pained expressions.
