Chapter 245


    Chapter 245 Misunderstanding


    After udia and Arianna left the mall, Arianna was still muttering, “Has my uncle lost his mind? How


    could he not see through such a trick?”


    udia chuckled, recalling the time when Edmond and Rosalie were entangled. She also wondered if


    Edmond was out of his mind, unable to see that Rosalie was such an obvious gold-digger. Now


    thinking about it, it wasn’t that men couldn’t see it, but they were habitually immersed in the illusion of


    gentleness.


    Arianna was talking while she and herpanion,den with bags, got into the car. Arianna said she


    was pregnant and couldn’t lift heavy things, so most of the stuff was still carried by Arianna.


    “Where to?” Arianna asked, buckling her seatbelt and raising an eyebrow.


    udia was deep in thought when a convertible sports car sped by. She happened to catch a glimpse


    of the person inside.


    It was Felicia and Thomas.


    “Do you know how to tail a car?” udia smirked, “Follow that car ahead.”


    Back then, when she was in the organization, she undertook various


    tasks, one of which was to teach mistresses a lesson.


    Emily disdained to lecture Felicia, so she did it.


    Arianna intuitively stepped on the gas and quickly followed.


    In a certain room of the Johnson’s manor, the thick golden-red patterned carpet as spotless, the walls


    were adorned with beautifully clean carved wallpaper, and the exquisite crystal chandelier was so


    bright that it was hard to keep one’s eyes open.


    In the corner, on the sofa, sat an old woman and a finely dressed Emily.


    “Do you want to reconsider the matter about Thomas?” Mnie looked at her beloved little daughter,


    her heart twisted into a knot.


    Yesterday, her family had embarrassed Thomas in front of so many people, and she had been feeling


    uneasy ever since.


    “Mom, are you also trying to persuade me?” Emilyughed helplessly. At her age, getting a divorce had


    be a joke.


    “I’m not trying to persuade you, I just want you to think carefully about the many years of feelings


    you’ve had. I’m afraid you’ll make a decision in a moment of impulse,” Mnie sighed. “I’m old, half in


    the grave, and all I want is for you to be happy. Whatever decision you make, your father and I will


    support you. If you ever want toe back, there will always be a ce for you in this home.”


    Emily’s nose was both dry and sour. It is said that a married daughter has no home, yet she was so


    fortunate. Despite being sick for many years, she still had a home.


    “Mom, I understand what you mean. After I meet with Thomas, I will talk to him properly.”


    Mnie nodded in satisfaction, “That Felicia can’t stir up any trouble, the most important thing is


    Thomas himself.”


    Just then, the butler came over and knocked on the door, whispering, “Madam, Ms. Emily, Thomas has


    arrived and is outside the door.”


    Speak of the devil and he shall appear.


    Emily calmly walked downstairs, seeing Thomas anxiously standing by the door from a distance, her


    heart suddenly stirred.


    After recovering from her illness, her gratitude towards Thomas surpassed her feelings for him. She


    never expected that he had been by her side all these years. She thought she would see the light at the


    end of the tunnel, but she never expected it to end in such a melodramatic


    way.


    The moment Thomas saw Emily, the shameful scene fromst night shed in his mind. The guilt deep


    in his heart vanished, reced by endless anger.


    “Emily, you Johnson family are really vicious. What did Elva do to offend you? Were you trying to break


    her legs?”


    31.90%


    Thomasunched into a barrage of usations right off the bat.


    N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    Emily’s face suddenly turned cold: “Thomas, what are you talking about? What does Elva’s broken leg


    have to do with our family? Raging mindlessly at your age, I think you’ve really gone se nile!”


    “Elva is in the hospital now, her leg was broken when she came here yesterday. If it wasn’t you guys,


    then who could it be?” Thomas was infuriated by her calling him “se nile”. “You’ve never liked her, now


    she’s in Vencumfield, and she’s not bothering you guys, why can’t you even spare a disabled person?


    No matter what, she’s still our daughter!”


    Emily didn’t know what he was ranting about, but she roughly understood the meaning of his words.


    Elva, for some unknown reason, broke her prosthetic limb and med them for it.


    Emily had originally wanted to have a good chat with Thomas, but now she hadpletely lost


    interest.


    “She has parents, how is she our daughter?” Emily looked coldly at Thoma s’s surprised face, walked


    to the edge of the sofa, took out a pile of documents from her handbag and threw them in front of him,


    “Elva has been in contact with her parents, using our money to support them. All the evidence is here,


    only a fool like you is still being deceived by her.”


    Thoma s’s lips quivered, his eyes filled with shock.


    40 705


    Elva’s parents weren’t actually dead?


    Upon seeing the photo above, Thoma s’s face instantly turned pale, veins bulging on his forehead,


    throbbing faintly.


    The person on this, is the one who Elva imed to be her uncle and auntst time.


    Also, Elva’s leg had nothing to do with me, nor with my family. Don’t jump to conclusions based on


    rumors.


    Emily’s voice was calm, her heart as still as water.


    Seeing these materials, Thomas felt as if he had been doused with a bucket of cold water, instantly


    sobering up. He looked at Emily, his lips trembling, “Emily, I… I’m sorry, I was too impulsive.”


    Emily waved her hand dismissively, saying coldly, “Hurry up and leave, I have guestsingter.”


    Thomas wanted to exin a couple of things, but the disdainful look she gave him made his face heat


    up a bit.


    He never imagined that Elva would deceive him


    He originally thought that Elva was the only rtive standing by his side, but now thinking about it, he


    himself was the clown.


    “Why are you still here? Waiting for dinner?” Emily’s voice was as cold as an ice pick


    Thoma s’s heart clenched tightly,


    Just as he was about to walk out the door, he bumped into someone


    head-on.


    “Marcos!”


    The guest Emily mentioned turned out to be Marcos!


    Thinking of the Johnson family’s attitude and Marcos’ motivation, Thomas suddenly realized,


    “Alright, very well…” He stared intently at Marcos, “How long have you two been together?”


    Marcos furrowed his brow, “Thomas, just because you’re dirty doesn’t mean everyone else is.”


    Thomas snorted coldly, nced at Emily, and quickly walked away.


    In the Ferguson’s manor, the luxurious decorations were all in a vintage style. Horace was sitting on the


    sofa, listening to the detective’s report


    “Edmond’s death was indeed strange, as no one had seen him after he


    died. But because the idea of faking death was too incredible, no one had ever doubted it. Mr.


    Ferguson, did you receive any information?”


    The speaker, wearing ck sunsses, couldn’t help but reveal a look of shock on his face.


    He was quite well-known in the detective world, but resurrection was indeed rare.


    But ording to the investigation, it was indeed possible that Edmond was still alive.


    “Tristen could die and live again, why couldn’t he?” Horace’s handsome face held a hint of sarcasm.


    “Did you check on Magnus? Is he the same person as Edmond?”
