Chapter 14
Chapter 14 Emily Johnson
They were all anxious, and a few were even so anxious that they cried.
Seeing udia standing here, one of them rushed over and asked, “Miss, have you seen a woman in a
red dress, around forty or fifty years old?”
The one who asked was a little girl. Her eyes were red, and there was some trembling on her
shoulders. She was worried and also scared.
udia shook her head.
The little girl cried again and looked elsewhere.
udia remembered reading gossip somewhere that the mother of several children of the Friedan
family, Emily Johnson, had me ntal problems since her daughter went missing and needed a lot of care
and attention, so it was true.
Actually, Emily was a miserable woman.
The greatest pain in the world was the pain of losing a child. Emily wanted a daughter so badly. She
had three sons before she had a daughter, but before Emily could raise her daughter, she disappeared.
udia’s heart was a little stuffy at the thought.
She thought, “I hope nothing happens to this daughter-loving Emily.”
In the hospital, Edmond woke up.
Rosalie, who had been standing by, choked with joy when she saw him wake up, “Edmond, you’re
awake!”

Edmond opened his mouth and asked, “How is she?”
“Who?” Rosalie was confused.
“udia.”
Rosalie pretended toe to her senses and say, “She’s fine, and she insisted on getting out of the
hospital. It seems she went to meet the elders of the Friedan family.”
Edmond pursed his lips as the words came out.
Rosalie watched his expression carefully.
She was told by her best friend who attended the party at the Friedan family that udia also went to
the party.
Rosalie said that on purpose.
“Edmond, if she insists on being with Waldron, we should give her our blessing.”
Blessings…
Edmond sneered, anger brewing in his heart.
He could give his blessing, but not to udia and Waldron.
Seeing that he was angry, Rosalie hastened to hold his hand affectionately. “Cicely said she wanted to
see us married early, on a date early next month. Edmond, will you marry me?”
Rosalie was apprehensive and expectant.
Edmond promised to take good care of her before, and now that he had divorced, and Cicely agreed, it
was time for them to get married.
At her expectant nce, however, Edmond drew his hand away.
“Edmond.” Rosalie grabbed her coat nervously. “Don’t you want Cicely to be happy? Cicely would love
to see me married to you.”
“So does she want you to marry Edmond or Tristen?”
Rosalie froze, and in an instant, her face went from pale to red, from red to livid.
“When we have a wedding, do people call me Tristen or Edmond? Aren’t you afraid of getting exposed
at the wedding?”
A low voice emanated from his throat, the tone of his voice yful and the sarcasm in his eyes.
Rosalie had long thought about this and smiled sweetly, “We don’t need to have a big wedding, and
we’ll just invite a few familiar people then. As long as everything is arranged, Cicely won’t notice any of
this.”
Edmond’s gaze deepened, a sneer in his low voice. “Mom thinks of me as my brother now. Are you
going to think of me as him too?”
“No, Edmond, I…” Rosalie panicked and stood up. “You know, it’s always been you I’ve liked all these
years, so how could I ever think of you as Tristen?”
“Let’s put this matter on hold.” Edmond’s eyshes lowered, his eyesnding on his cell phone, and he
unconsciously stepped off the bed.
“Edmond, don’te down. The doctor said you still need to recuperate.” Rosalie stopped him in a
panic, tears filling her eyes.
Edmond pursed his lips as his eyesnded on his legs and couldn’t help but think of the scene where
udia rushed into the fire to save him.

udia was deliberately taking it out on him with those words, wasn’t
she?
A warmth flooded through his heart as he touched the spot where udia had touched him.
Seeing him struggle to get up, Rosalie cried,rge tears sliding down her face.
She cried and hugged Edmond. “Are you going to see her?”
“Edmond, she’s going to see Waldron! Can’t you just stand by and do nothing?”
Stand by…
His spine tensed, and he clenched his fists.
He could spare udia and bless her, but he couldn’t watch her ruin her life.
The moment udia-rushed into the fire and saved him, he couldn’t stand by anymore.
With Waldron leading the way, udia followed him to the cottage on the property.
For once, she was not “Mrs. Lamont”, just udia.
“I’ll show you my familyter.”
udia thought, “Family…
There’s something strange about how that sounds.” N?velDrama.Org holds this content.
She didn’t think much of it, just handed him the handbag in her hand.
“This is a birthday present for your dad.”
Waldron picked up the bag and looked inside. It was tightly wrapped. so he couldn’t see what it was.
Waldron raised his eyebrows and smiled, “I’ll get them. You’ll give it to him yourselfter.”
After saying that, he ran away. His footsteps were brisk, and he was a bit impatient.
Instead, she tensed as she waited.
The Friedan family was the richest family in the city. Their assets were among the highest in the
country.
She hadn’t expected Waldron to be so weing as to introduce his family to her.
Who was she? She was just a small designer, so how could she let the Friedan family’s elderse to
see her?
The more udia thought about it, the ruder it seemed. She stood up to go after Waldron and ran into
someone head-on.
“Ugh!”
The woman was wearing a long purple dress, and because she was walking fast, she didn’t see
udia.
The wine spilled, and the girl in the long purple dress first sized up udia a few times. She hadn’t
seen udia before.
She attended all kinds of banquets from time to time and had seen all kinds of rich youngdies, and
there were not many she did not know.
Seeing udia’s good-looking but unfamiliar face, she instantly

judged that udia wouldn’t have a big background. Maybe udia was just an inte celebrity.
“Thisdy, you ruined my dress.” She pointed to a certain part of her waist, her voice shrill. “Remember
to pay me when the banquet is over. It’s Haute Couture, only 50 thousand dors or so.”
udia shot a nce at her dress. Coincidentally, udia also had one, but it wasn’t Haute Couture,
but a regr dress from a certain brand from two years ago. When it came out new, it was only 4
thousand dors, but now she asked udia for 50 thousand dors!
Just now, it was clear that she bumped into udia.
udia smiled, looking gorgeous.
“This youngdy, if I remember correctly, you just bumped into me yourself, didn’t you?”
“I bumped into you myself? Are you blind?” The girl in purple suddenly stormed out, sshing the rest
of the wine in her ss onto udia’s dress. “If you can’t afford to pay for it, enjoy this ss of red
wine with me.”
udia’s waist was wrapped tightly in a red dress that curved just right.
The red wine sshed onto her body like a dark flower that bloomed around her waist.
Chapter 15 So What?
Many people were attracted by the noise, and they gathered around.
“What a pity. Gilda, your clothes are destroyed.”
A sharp voice sounded. It was a girl who held a circr fan in her hand. Her name was Anna. Anna
behaved as if she hadn’t seen udia. She was just staring at the purple-clothed girl.
Gilda saw that udia’s dress was also stained with red wine. She smiled, and she put the wine ss
aside. Gilda said, “She can’t afford topensate for my clothes. So, I can only do the ti t for tat.”
Hearing this, Anna then looked at udia. She noticed what udia was wearing. She said, “Her
clothes…”
“What’s wrong with her clothes? Could it be more expensive than mine?” Gilda snorted.and said. She
was a rtive of the Friedan family. Because of this, many people respected her. If someone destroyed
her clothes, she would ask for whatever amount of money she wanted and the one wouldn’t refuse. It
was the first time that Gilda was refused to bepensated today.
She thought, “She is just an online celebrity. She can’t do anything to take revenge on me although I
bullied her.”
Anna kept silent. She didn’t tell the truth that udia’s clothes were more expensive than Gilda’s.
Gilda touched her nails. Seeing udia walk away, she thought that udia was afraid and left. Gilda
was about to say something to mock udia. However, udia walked to her again.
This time, udia held a ss of wine in her hand.
Under everyone’s gaze, udia spilled wine onto Gilda’s clothes.
Small wine stains becamerge stains.
udia looked at Gilda coldly.
Then, she said, “Ms. Friedan, you are right. If you can’t afford it, I should do tit for tat. My clothes are
much more expensive than yours.”
Gilda was stunned.
And the others present were all shocked.
Anna was surprised. She said, “Miss, do you know who she is? Herst name is Friedan.”
Here, people surnamed Friedan were rted to Thomas. The Friedan family was very powerful.
However, udia poured a ss of wine on Gilda.
Particrly, it was at the Friedan’s ce.
“Herst name is Friedan. So what?” udia wasn’t afraid at all. “There are so many people surnamed
Friedan in the world. Does everyone surnamed Friedan pour wine on others and ckmail people?”
Hearing this, Gilda became angry and shouted, “When did I ckmail you?”
udia smiled mockingly and said, “You said that your clothes are haute couture and worth 50
thousand dors.”
udia looked around with a smile and saw that the people around
moved their gaze to Gilda. Gilda gently ruffled the hair on her forehead and smiled amorously.
Annaughed and said, “50 thousand dors?”
Gilda was embarrassed.
The people who came here today were big shots. They could tell the price of the clothes of Gilda at a
nce.
Gilda’s dress was indeed not haute couture, and the 50 thousand dors was also exaggerated. Gilda
did not expect that udia would directly say it out.
“I see that thisdy’s clothes look like a certain brand’s haute couture. It must be very expensive.” Anna
looked at udia with a smile.
Gilda also looked over.
Before, Gilda felt that udia’s dress looked very familiar, but she automatically ignored her identity
and thought she wore a fake one.
When Anna said that, Gilda was embarrassed.
udia didn’t answer. She didn’t have a decent identity, and she didn’t want to be famous.
However, there were many people and someone knew her.
“I remember! She is Edmond’s ex-wife.”
Hearing Edmond’s name, people around were excited.
Edmond was very famous.
Many girls wanted to marry him.
He was talented, rich, powerful, and very handsome.

Edmond was very charming.
Many years ago, Edmond was a yboy, rich and arrogant. He was pursued by many female students
when he was in school. Later, after the death of the eldest son of the Lamont family, he suddenly
changed his temperament. He took over the family business and made the Lamont family as powerful
as in the past.
Even though there were rumors of his rtionship with Waldron, it still did not prevent some women
from having fancy about him.
The public had always been curious about what kind of woman Edmond would marry.
They wondered what kind of woman could get married to Edmond.
udia felt that everyone was staring at her.
“I am sorry. It turns out that you are Mr. Lamont’s ex-wife.” Gilda seemed to have changed her attitude,
but her words were sharp. “No wonder you behave so tough, but unfortunately, it seems that Mr.
Lamont doesn’t like you!”
Everyone knew that Edmond didn’t like udia and many people mocked her because of that.
udia smiled mockingly.
Waldron walked over and said, “Why is everybody here?” He looked sad.
Waldron didn’t find his mother. His brother and father didn’t have time to see udia. He nned to
find another chance to let his family meet udia.
Waldron looked at udia and saw the wine stains. He became angry and asked, “Who did it?”
Everyone fell silent.
“Waldron.” Gilda changed her attitude and greeted Waldron.
Waldron looked at her and asked, “Who are you?”
Gilda felt embarrassed.
Although her surname was Friedan, she was a distant rtive of Waldron. Waldron was arrogant and
domineering, and it was normal for him not to remember Gilda.
Gilda felt that he humiliated her when Waldron asked who she was in front of so many people.
Waldron nced at the stain. It was just on the waist. The soaked fabric was tightly pasted to her skin.
The curious gazes of the men around udia made him very unpleasant.
Waldron was also a man, so he knew what they were thinking.
He walked up to udia, took off his suit, and handed it to her. “Put it on.”
Seeing that she didn’t move, Waldron helped her put it on directly.
Seeing this, some people even wanted to scream.
They thought, “Isn’t Waldron Edmond’s boyfriend?
Why does he care so much about Edmond’s ex-wife?”
Gilda was even more confused. Before she could think clearly, Waldron looked at her and asked, “Did
you do it?”
Waldron saw that Gilda’s dress was also stained with wine.
Gilda said hesitantly, “It was her who poured wine on me!”
