Chapter 828
Emily was stunned. She thought that she had identally knocked into silent mode or that her
phone had been hung up. She looked at the screen and saw that it was still showing that she was
on the phone. She cried out in confusion, "Addy?"
There was no response from the other end of the phone. Instead, there was a strange silence.
Just as Emily was hesitating whether or not to hang up, she heard a cry of pain. "Ah-"
Startled, she quickly said, "Hello? Addy? Addy?"
Emily put the phone screen in front of her eyes. The screen showed that the phone had been hung
up. She swallowed and couldn''t help looking at Simon for help.
When Simon saw her face change dramatically, he had leaned over and sat next to her. He said in a
low voice, "Maybe it''s disconnected. Emily, try it again!"
When Emily heard this, she called again, but there was only the sound of system prompt on the
other end.
"The phone can''t be connected!" She shook her head. Somehow, her heart was in a mess. She was
a little worried. "Simon, do you think something will happen?"
Simon frowned.
The more Emily thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. After all, she had
gotten through to the other end of the phone just now. Suddenly, there was no sound. Furthermore,
there was a low cry that she wasn''t sure of. After a few consecutive calls, she still couldn''t connect...
After hesitating for a while, she said first, "Let''s go over and have a look!"
Half an hourter, the ck Cayenne drove to a high-endmunity.
Just now, on the phone, Addy said that she was at home, so they drove over directly. When Addy
announced her marriage, she mentioned that she would invite them to live in her house after
honeymoon, and knew that Sean had just bought a new real estate as their wedding house.
After the car stopped, Simon took her into the building.
The elevator rose to a certain level at a constant speed. With a ringing, it opened. The building is
equipped with one staircase with only one household at every level. There was only one security
door. Simon raised his hand and knocked on the door.
After a long time, there was no sound at all.
When they were looking at each other speechlessly, the security door was suddenly opened from
the inside.
When the person inside saw them, she was stunned. After a while, she asked, "Simon, Emily, what
brings you here?"
At the same time, Emily and Simon were also surprised, because Addy''s face was covered with
bruises, her long hair was messy like withered grass, and her clothes were wrinkled, which made
her look extremely embarrassed.
"Oh my god!" Emily cried out involuntarily.

Simon said in shock, "Addy, what''s wrong with you?"
Addy quickly lowered her head and tried to hide her bruises with her long hair. "I, I''m fine!"
Emily and Simon followed Addy into the house. After passing through the porch, they found that the
living room was in a mess. The ss of the French window even had broken lines, and there was a
ashtray with broken corners beside the corner of the wall.
He opened his mouth but say nothing,pletely shocked by what he saw.
Addy seemed to be a little flustered, but it was toote to tidy up. She hurriedly picked up the
electrical appliances and other things on the ground. Under the background wall of the TV, the
mobile phone lied there. The screen had been broken. It seemed that it couldn''t be used anymore.
No wonder Addy could not be connectedter.
Emily looked around and was guessing what had just happened. "Addy, you suddenly hung up on
the phone. I seemed to have heard your screams, so we were worried about you, so we came over
to have a look! The wound on your face..."
"I''m fine, I''m really fine!" Addy shook her head repeatedly.
How could you be fine...
The light in the room was much brighter than that in the porch. At the same time, the bruises on
Addy''s face were also more obvious. The bruises looked especially shocking, and the whole person
seemed particrly gaunt.
Simon said in a low voice, "Do you have a medical kit at home?"
"Yes, I''ll get it!" Addy nodded her head.
After taking out the medical kit, Emily helped her apply the medicine. Fortunately, they were just
some skin traumas, but really shocking. Such a beautiful face now was red and swollen, and it
made her feel ufortable when saw it.
Looking at the mess in the living room again, she couldn''t help frowning and asking, "Addy, did your
house get robbed? Was it a burry? Why didn''t you call the security? Did you call the police?"
It seemed that there was only one reason that made sense. Although it was a high-rise housing, the
level where Addy lived was rtively low. It was also possible that there was a thief at this time.
Perhaps she met the thief by ident, which caused a conflict...
When Emily was still making guesses, Addy shook her head. "No..."
"If there is such a situation, let the police handle it!" Simon said in a low voice.
However, after hearing that, Addy kept shaking her head. "No, I don''t need to call the police!"
"Don''t call the police?" Emily was stunned and said in a very puzzled manner. "Addy, Simon is right.
We have to call the police. Only when the policee can we catch the gangster!"
Simon took out the phone from his trouser pocket.
Addy suddenly stood up and stopped him. She said in a trembling voice, "It''s Sean who beat me..."
Emily was shocked.
Sean?
Addy''s husband. They had just gotten married, and it had only been a few days since their
honeymoon. They were in their newly-married period, which was the sweetest period of their
rtionship. How could it be...
The most important thing was that Emily had seen Mr. Jules, who was handsome and elegant, and
looked like a gentleman. She couldn''t associate Mr. Jules with the initiator who hurt Addy so heavily!
But judging from the tearful look on Addy''s face, it was impossible for her to lie.
Emily swallowed her saliva and two words fled into her mind, "Domestic violence..."
In the early days when she was a reporter''s assistant, when she was arranged to interview some
news about people''s livelihood, she had interviewed such family conflicts, and there were also many
wives who were abused by their husbands. When she and Tina went there with the machine, she
almost encountered the same situation as Addy.
As a woman, Emily couldn''t help feeling a little angry. "Mr. Jules, how can he do this?"
Silently putting down the phone, Simon frowned and asked, "Addy, are you sure you don''t need to
call the police?" "I''m sure!" Addy nodded firmly. She wiped the tears from her eyes with a tissue,
and squeezed out a smile. "Sorry, it''s sote that you came over at night! In fact, it''s nothing
serious. It''s just a little skin trauma. And It was just a little contradiction between husband and wife.
Sean drank too much tonight, so he lost control! He treats me very well in daily life. How can I call
the police to catch my husband? We''re all right. Don''t worry about me!"
Emily could tell that Addy really didn''t want to call the police, and she seemed to be very tolerant of
Sean.
In fact, it was understandable to think about it. After all, they were newly married...
