Chapter 142 Paying for What One Have Done
It rained on Saturday. Nancy held the lunch box that was about to be given to her father and Marcus, sitting at the door with her pets.
"Miss Brook."
Philip came over, holding an umbrella. He took the lunch box out of Nancy's hands.
Louis scooped Nancy up into his arms and opened the black umbrella standing beside him.
"Let's go."
Nancy waved goodbye to her pets over Louis' shoulders.
"Goodbye, I'll be back soon."
Adolph barked.
Harley mewed.
"Goodbye."
Adolph and Harley seemed to understand what Nancy said and said goodbye to her one by one. The Brook's villa was very lively at that moment. Nancy smiled broadly.
"Nancy, I know you came to deliver lunch to your father."
"Good afternoon, Nancy. It's nice of you to deliver meals to your father."
As soon as Nancy arrived at her father's company, she immediately attracted widespread attention. Everyone who saw her would greet her with a smile and envied Mr. Brook for having such a good daughter.
Nancy held Louis' hand with a sweet smile on her face. She was a little bit shy, but she still greeted everyone in a soft voice.
The greeting didn't stop until Nancy and Louis came upstairs to James' office.
James was still at the meeting. So Nancy put the lunch box on the table and played Fun Fest on her mobile phone on the sofa. Louis also sat beside her to play games.
A secretary walked in quietly and left after serving them some fruit.
Soon, the door was opened again. Nancy was eating grapes and thought her had father came back. She turned her head merrily but was surprised to find a woman with heavy makeup and a curvy figure.
"Miss Emily Mott, please leave here. You are not allowed to enter Mr. Brook's office."
Some security guards and the secretary stopped Emily at the door.
Emily took off her sunglasses and arrogantly said, "Mr. Brook asked me to come here. Do you know my relationship with Mr. Brook? Let me in quickly, or bear the consequences!"
The security guards and the secretary remained unmoved.
"Sorry, please leave here."
Emily rolled her eyes in disgust, "You'd better let me in and wait for Mr. Brook in his office. Otherwise, believe it or not, I'll ask him to fire you."
"Sorry, Miss Mott. But Mr. Brook didn't say that you had an appointment with him."
Emily was irritated immediately, "I am about to marry your boss. So don't block my way!"
Both Louis and Nancy were stunned.
The secretary looked at Emily with contempt, "I don't know what you mean. Mr. Brook and Mrs. Brook love each other dearly."
Emily rolled her eyes upwards again, "I am talking about Marcus instead of Mr. James Brook. Mr. James Brook will be my father-in-law."
The rest of the people here were speechless.
It was good to have confidence. But excessive confidence drove one to become unashamed.
"But you still can't come in until Mr. Brook comes back."
Emily snorted angrily, "I met Marcus as early as when he was in Country M. I also took a photo together with him. Yesterday, I had a good chat with Mr. Brook. He was satisfied with me. So I believe I will marry Marcus soon. How dare you block my way?"
The security guards and the secretary were lost for words once again.
They wondered why Emily was so brazen. They didn't like her, let alone Marcus.
"What an ugly woman. Why are you so arrogant?"
Louis, who was in James' office, couldn't help but speak. Emily looked over the security guard's shoulders at Louis and her face distorted with fury.
"Bad boy, how dare you say that! Why did that boy and girl enter the office? Kick them out at once. "
Unexpectedly, Emily regarded herself as a host and gave orders to the secretary. The secretary was calm, because she was experienced and knew how to deal with brazen people.
"Miss Mott, I think you should leave here."
Emily glared at her, "Do you want to be fired? Let me in right now. Otherwise, my father-in-law, Mr. Brook, will punish you."
In fact, Emily came to James' office because she failed to find Marcus.
"What are you doing?"
Seeing James come back, Emily didn't dare to be arrogant anymore. She took on a smile quickly.
"Mr. Brook, nice to see you again. I am Emily. Yesterday, my father had a good chat with you about business cooperation."
So Mr. Brook was only satisfied with the business cooperation, the secretary and security guards thought contemptuously.
James frowned at Emily, "One can't enter my office without my permission. How did you come here?"
One of the security guards stepped forward and explained, "Mr. Brook, we tried to stop Miss Mott but she... As long as we touched her, she kept saying that we sexually harassed her."
So the security guards didn't know what to do.
James was displeased and said grimly, "Miss Mott, you are well-educated, so you should know we can call the police if one breaks into my company."
Emily's smile suddenly froze on her lips. The secretary standing aside suppressed a smile. Didn't you say Mr. Brook was very satisfied with you? This is the so-called satisfaction, she thought.
"Uncle James, you missed the chance to see this..."
Louis looked at Emily up and down and said in disgust, "This auntie."
Emily was shocked by the address.
She was unsteady on her feet and almost sprained her ankle. Her face distorted even more with anger.
"This auntie said that you are her future father-in-law and she will marry Marcus soon..."
Louis looked at Emily meaningfully with his arms folded.
James was angry but still wore a smile on his face. It was a false and hypocritical smile.
"Miss Emily Mott, I didn't notice you yesterday. The Brook family has strict family rules. I will only acknowledge the girl as my daughter-in-law who was brought back home by my son. And I ignore those who claim to be his girlfriend. So please mind your words. I hope my son has a good reputation."
James hinted that Emily's brazen pursuit of Marcus would blacken Marcus' name. And the Brook family wouldn't accept her!
"Hahaha..."
Louis burst into laughter while others tried hard to hold back their smiles.
Emily's face went pale because of fury.
"Send Miss Mott out of the company."
The secretary said with a smile. "Miss Mott, please?"
Emily left in her high heels quickly. She was thick-skinned but still felt extremely embarrassed.
She wondered why James was very sharp with such a pretty girl like her.
"By the way, Miss Mott, please don't post that fake photo online. Otherwise, Mr. James Brook and Mr. Marcus Brook will get angry."
Emily left in a hurry.
"Dad."
Nancy walked out of the office to greet James softly. Then she was swept up into his arms.
"Nancy, it's nice of you to deliver lunch to me. Thank you, my dear."
Nancy shook her head, "Never mind. I didn't cook and I just brought it to you by car."
James was touched to find all the food in the lunch box was his favorite. He thought he had a caring daughter. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"Where's your mother?"
Nancy muttered, "She went shopping with her good friend. I didn't want to go with her."
She went shopping with her mother twice. She thought it was more tiring than running with Marcus in the morning.
James laughed and rubbed Nancy's head. To be honest, he would rather work overtime than go shopping with his wife.
He thought shopping with women was the most tiring thing. Some fragile women would become energetic every time they go shopping as if they would never feel tired.
After a short stay at James' office, Nancy and Louis went to find Marcus.
As soon as they arrived at Marcus' studio, Louis wore an evil grin and told Marcus all about Emily.
"Marcus, I didn't expect that your future wife would come here to find you with your photo."
Marcus glanced at him with cold eyes, "Are you asking for trouble?"
Louis smiled, "What I said is true. Nancy can prove it. A woman went to your father's company. She claimed to be your future wife and Uncle James is her future father-in-law."
Nancy nodded, "It's right. But Dad asked her to leave."
Louis laughed, "In fact, she was scolded and then left. After all, no one can bear Uncle James' sharp tongue."
