Isabella couldn't deny that she was scared.
She stared at Emma and said, "Do you dare?"
"Why wouldn't I?" Emma's smile became even more sinister. "I dare to play, but do you dare to bet your life?"
Isabella shuddered all over, as if she was meeting Emma for the first time, with disbelief written all over her face.
Was this the same Emma who used to be a typical vase, with nothing but a pretty face and a spoiled rich girl attitude? Apart from her good family background, she was foolish from head to toe! She would believe anything you told her and take any act as rnow.
But now. .. She was full of killing intent, like a demon coming to the world.
Isabella had no doubt that if Emma went crazy again, she might strangle her right now. She couldn't help feeling a little anxious.
Her eyes kept glancing towards the door of the ward.
Emma asked calmly, "What? Are you waiting for your Brother William to come, you can start your performance?"
Isabella's face turned pale and green.
Emma, on the other hand, had let go of her and casually took a tissue from the side to wipe her hands. She sneered, "Don't worry, I don't want that dog thing. And even if you use him as a backing, what can you do to me?"
Emma couldn't help but sigh.
"Some things are just a matter of fate."
With that, she walked away briskly, leaving Isabella with a twisted expression of anger.
It was true.
One's fate was determined by their background and status, and Emma had everything since birth.
But no matter how hard she tried, she could never escape the issue of her inferior status in this city where fame and fortune were everything.
Even if William really break off the engagement with Emma, the Taylor Family would never accept her as their daughter-in-law due to her unsuitable background.
Thinking of this, Isabella gritted her teeth and made up her mind -
She must turn her relationship with William into a done deal in the shortest time possible.
At the hospital entrance, William had bought breakfast and was ready to go upstairs when he saw an acquaintance. He walked over with a smile and greeted him.
"Mr. Yuan, long time no see. I heard your company has been having some problems. If you need any help, I'm willing to help you solve your current difficulties."
Although William was young, he had been handling the company's affairs under Mason's guidance since he was a teenager. He could be considered as Mason's successor. In his eyes, Yuan Xiao was a very talented creative genius. If he could recruit him, it would be a great boost to the company.
Moreover, Yuan Xiao's company had gone bankrupt and he was trying to raise money for his sick daughter. William thought that there wouldn't be many people willing to help at this time, so if he offered to help, Yuan Xiao would surely be grateful.
However, as soon as he made the offer, he was refused.
"No need, our company's crisis has been resolved.
Thank you for your concern, Young Master Taylor," Yuan Xiao politely smiled and left without any intention of befriending him.
In his eyes, William was no different from those who kicked a man when he was down, just waiting for him to hit rock bottom so they could buy his company at a lower price.
It was all about calculating their own interests, regardless of whether they wanted to help or not.
In contrast, the girl who gave him 60 million without saying a word was the epitome of honesty and fairness. She didn't take advantage of him in any way and even gave him the best conditions.
She didn't even leave anything behind except for a phone call. Wasn't she afraid that he would run away with the 60 million overnight?
Thinking of this, Yuan Xiao took the initiative to call Emma. But before the call could connect, they met at the elevator.
Yuan Xiao was pleasantly surprised, "Miss, I was just thinking of inviting you to meet. I have the contract ready, when would it be convenient for you to sign?"
Emma looked at the time and said, "There's a café nearby, let's go there."
"Okay."
The two of them left the hospital.
After sitting down at the café, Emma asked about his daughter's condition, and he said the surgery was very successful. She could be discharged from the hospital in a few days and rest at home.
Emma nodded and didn't ask anything else. She didn't even look at the contract's content, waved her hand, and signed her name.
Yuan Xiao sighed helplessly, "Boss, you should at least look at the contract's content. Trusting people so easily can lead to being deceived."
"Trust people, don't doubt them. I trust you."
Emma smiled and said, "But this matter is confidential.
Don't tell anyone that the behind the scenes, big boss is me, even if you meet me in other situations, pretend you don't know me, okay?"
The sixty million was obtained from Thomas, and it couldn't be discovered.
As for her acquisition of the company, she didn't want anyone to know.
"Okay, I understand."
It had to be said that Yuan Xiao was a very qualified partner. He didn't ask for reasons, just smiled and asked, "What's your name, boss?"
Yuan Xiao felt helpless. He knew nothing about this young girl, but she seemed to be familiar with him.
"Emma."
Emma introduced herself, then got up and said goodbye, "I'm leaving now. If you need anything, just give me a call, Uncle Yuan."
"Okay... sure."
It wasn't until Emma left that Yuan Xiao took a deep breath.
"Emma? Benjamin's darling daughter from the Miller Family Group?"
Speaking of which, Emma's reputation in the entire city is quite well-known, mostly due to the uproar caused by her engagement with William.
Emma has also been labeled as a lovesick fool, chasing after a man relentlessly and being rejected by him repeatedly, which has led to a lot of criticism and negative comments about her.
Most people just took it as a joke, and Emma's negative reputation has grown.
Yuan Xiao once heard someone at a banquet mocking Benjamin with this matter, sarcastically saying that his daughter is just a vase, a fool who doesn't even care about her own dignity for the sake of a man.
But what about Emma herself?
She has an outstanding temperament, speaks and acts decisively. She is beautiful and has clear thinking, and compared to Benjamin, she is simply better in every way! How could she be the person described in the rumors?
Yuan Xiao couldn't help but sigh.
Rumors are not to be believed, not to be believed!
....
After Emma returned home, she saw that Thomas and Scarlett had already packed up their belongings, but they were still lingering at the villa gate, unwilling to leave.
Obviously, they still wanted to plead with Benjamin for forgiveness.
The servant who was responsible for driving them away was in a dilemma and didn't know what to do.
Until he saw Emma come back, his eyes lit up and he immediately shouted, "Miss Emma!"
"I'll handle this, you guys go back to your work," Emma said.
"Thank you, Miss!" the servant replied.
Watching the couple standing under the sun, Emma smiled and asked calmly, "Does Second Uncle not feel guilty when he sees me?
Remember, you arranged for me to be kidnapped.
You didn't even apologize to me and only thought about how to please my father?"
