Chapter 182: A Deadly Intuition
Emmett immediately turns sulky.
He takes out his mobile phone and dials ine’s number.
Nobody picks up.
“Damn! Don’t she know she needs my permission to go off work at lunch?”
Emmett curses softly. He doesn’t want to show his temper in front of Jasper, so he tries to leave his
anger behind, and focus on discussing the project in the Sahara Desert with Jasper.
After a while, Jasper remembers, “I saw Oliver’s car downstairs when I came up. Didn’t hee
here?”
“Who?”
Emmett lifts his eyes and stares at Jasper.
It is a dubious and cold look.
Jaspers feels scared, “Did I said something wrong? I just came back, and I know nothing!” Jasper
thinks.
“Oliver’s car. It looks like Oliver’s car.”
“Oliver was at downstairs?” Emmett knocks the table with his fingertips, trying to connect the dots
between Oliver appearance and ine’s disappearance.
“Shit!” Emmett throws away the pen he is holding and curses loudly.
Jasper doesn’t know why Emmett is pissed off.
Little did he know, Emmett is jealous. Extremely jealous.
Jasper feels that something is wrong when he walks out of Emmett’s office.
When he arrives in his office, he cleans up his desk, then makes a call to Lucas.
“Lucas.”
“Jasper, how are you doing there?”
“I’m back in the office now.”
“That’s fast. Dinner is on me tonight then!”
“Save it. We are all overwhelmed by work here. Everyone needs to work overtime.”
“Since you are back, you need to know this. Something big happened.”
“What happened?”
“Oliver and Emmett turn against each other.”
“What?”
Jasper is shocked after Lucas has done exining what happen the other night.
He is sweating.
He did say something wrong just now when he was in Emmett’s office.
“Lucas, I am dead. I mentioned Oliver when I was in Emmett’s office earlier. I am so dead.”
Jasper mumbles.
Lucas rubs his forehead over the head. He prays for Oliver.
“It’s fine. We’ve all died before. You’re not the first. I have no idea how this is going to end unless one
of them give up on ine.”
Jasper says firmly, “I can assure you that Emmett is not going to give up. He is not the kind of person
that would change his mind because of what people say.”
Lucas sighs, “This is why it is a sad thing to see. Oliver seems to be pretty serious this time too. He is
determined to get ine.”
Both of Jasper and Lucas remain silent after. They don''t know what to do about the situation too.
Oliver and ine go to the hospital to check on Oliver’s wound.
ine gasps the moment she sees the wound.
She starts to tear.
The wound is long and deep. There are many stitches on it, and ine could still see the bruises under
the skin.
It is horrifying.
Oliver raises his head, and he sees ine tearing. He smiles at her tofort her, “I’m fine. It doesn’t
hurt anymore. Don’t be worried.”
ine bites her lips, and her voice is shaky, “It must have hurt so much.”
Oliver holds ine’s hand and put it in front of his chest. She could feel his heartbeat.
“It doesn’t hurt at all with you by my side.”
ine stuns.
How can she be unmoved when multiple confessiones from a handsome guy like Oliver?
But the feeling she had towards him isn’t the kind that lovers have.
“Oliver, I’m sorry but I…”
Oliver knows what ine is going to say. He stops her immediately, “Don’t say it, ine. Pieces of
advice don''t always work. Don’t you have to go back to work? I will send you back to the office now.”
When they arrive at the office building, Oliver opens the door and helps ine out of the car. ine
stuns the moment she raises her head.
Emmett is standing right in front of the main entrance.
His arms akimbo and stares coldly at Oliver and ine.
His brows are furrow, and he looks like he is going to breathe fire out of his eyes.
Emmett looks inapproachable.
The staffs hide in the corner of the lobby, wondering why Emmett decides to stand in front of the main
entrance.
ine doesn’t know what to say. She has lost for words the moment her eyes meet Emmett’s.
Oliver is surprised to see Emmett too. He sneers after pausing for a second.
Emmettpresses his lips, roll his sleeves up and walks towards Oliver and ine.
ine’s heart is racing. She has a feeling like she is going to die today as Emmett walks towards her.
Emmett squints his eyes, and everyone could feel the coldness he has in his eyes.
ine shivers by only looking at Emmett’s eyes.
The gentleness in Emmett disappears again?
Oliver takes a step forward and pulls ine further away from Emmett with his injured hand.
ine immediately realizes, “No, Oliver is injured. I can’t let him take the punches for me.”
So, ine too takes a step forward, opens her arms and stand in front of Olive. She has her lips
compressed and thinking, “This is it!”
She rushes forward Emmett and says, “Emmett, if you want to beat someone up, punch me. Leave
Oliver alone.”
ine is scared, and her voice is shaky.
Oliver is worried. He tries to pull her away, “What are you doing, ine? Come behind me.”
Oliver is the young master of the Young family. He doesn’t need a woman to protect him no matter how
seriously injured he is.
“If you want to beat someone, then punch me! Oliver, stand behind me. You are injured!”
ine raises her chin and straightens her back. She is trying to show her inner heroine.
Emmett stops at a distance away from Oliver and ine. He sneers in anger.
“Hey, ine. I can see that you would die for your lover boy, huh? How lovely.”

Emmett’s words are like swords stabbing into ine’s heart.
Amongst the coldness in his words, there is also jealousy.
What a joke, ine! Do you want to protect Oliver now?
Spending only a short afternoon with him and you fell for him already?
Is he your baby boy now?
“No matter what you say, Oli is injured. You can’t do this to an injured person! Be reasonable! Don’t
reason with your fist!”
“Oli?” Emmett clenches his teeth, “You are calling him that now?”
Emmett is a sensitive person. He realizes ine changes how she addresses Oliver.
It was only yesterday that ine is still referring to Oliver as Master Young.
And she is calling him Oli now? So intimately?
Emmett clenches his fist. He is too angry.
“What’s wrong with that?”
ine widens her eyes and tries to make herself look brave.
Oliver sighs, “Emmett, do you have to be this petty? I asked her to call me Oli. You know, since we are
fighting over her, shouldn’t you get used to the new norm?”
“Shut up!” Emmett stares at Oliver in furious. He takes a few deep breaths, “Don’t get in between of a
couple. ine and I don’t need your interference.”
“I can’t do that. If you are as great as you said, marry ine then! I won’t disturb her if you marry her.
Can you do it? No? Then don’te and take out your furry here. We are all on equal ground. We are
all only a man who is trying to pursue ine!”
Emmett takes a few deep breaths, again, trying to calm his tone, “Oli, we are friends for years. I don’t
want to ruin our friendship. You are always a little brother to me. I have given you so many things, can’t
you let me have ine this time?”
Oliver wobbles slightly the moment he hears what Emmett says. His words do affect him. Oliver
chokes, “I tried. I really tried, but I can’t do it. I didn’t want to ruin our friendship either, but I couldn’t give
up on ine.”
Emmett sneers, “Then, don’t me me!”
ine is startled by what Emmett says.
What is he going to do to Oliver?
Oliver nods, “I’ll be waiting. Emmett, don’t forget that JY Group isn’t the kind ofpany that you can
toy around. Furthermore, wealth isn’t the key to winning ady’s heart.”
Emmett and Oliver stare at each other from a distance.
“ine,e over,” Emmett reaches out his hand to ine.
When ine is about to walk towards Emmett, she pauses and turns around. She says to Oliver, “Go
home now. Take good care of your arms.”
Emmett squints his eyes as ine talks to Oliver.
Oliver nods, “I will. I will call youter.”
Emmett can’t stand it anymore. He is so jealous now. He grabs ine over, put his arms around her,
and brings her back into the office building.
