Chapter 622
While eating with her head lowered, Emily asked worriedly, "I know you''re nning on doing
something. Can you tell me what you''re going to do?"
However, Kobi only looked at her with an indifferent expression.
Raising her head, Emily looked at him intently. "Are you afraid that I''ll tell anyone where I am now?"
With this, she smiled bitterly. "Now that I am locked up by you, what else can I do?"
Since she couldn''t get out of here, she wouldn''t be able to get in touch with anyone.
Moreover, even if she could run away, she might not tell others what had happened to her.
Until now, she still loved this man very much.
If she told on him, it would do him no good, which was also a form of betrayal.
"Have you finished eating?" asked Kobi who avoided answering her question.
"You promised to let me know what I wanted to know. Do you remember that?" said Emily who bit
her lips.
"Don''t try to provoke me!" Kobi raised her chin and added, "There''s still some food in the container. I
hope I won''t need to send you to the hospital."
"Are you are afraid that your identity will be revealed if you send me to the hospital?" Emily was
quite smart sometimes. "Now that I am gone, the Hudson Family must be very anxious. If they can''t
find me, you will be suspected."
Because of their rtionship, the Hudson Family would definitely think of her when they failed to
find her.
ncing at her, he smiled and responded, "Well, I could lie to them. I told them that you sneaked
back to Mathines out of anger?"
"You..."
"You don''t know many people in Beachmarsh City, and no one will keep looking for you, especially
when it''s logical to im that you have returned to your home in Mathines." Kobi shook his head
andughed. "Don''t y tricks on me. You will never win."
Emily really didn''t know how to trick him. She hoped she had seen through him a long time ago.
"Kobi, have you ever loved me?" Emily looked at him and asked suddenly.
Kobi frowned but didn''t answer her question.
Staring at him, she muttered, "I know you still love me. I don''t think you could forget the happy times
we spent together. You have always been serious in our rtionship, right?"
If he didn''t love her, why would spare her life?
If he had no feelings for her at all, he would have definitely killed her without hesitation.
But he didn''t.
Looking at her with a stolid expression, he said, "I spared your life because I don''t want to get
myself into trouble."
"W-What?"
"Killing you won''t do me any good, so the best way is to keep you alive," Kobi replied faintly. "If you
die, your family will definitely look for me, which would be a huge trouble for me, so why would I
want to kill you?"
Emily felt stinging pain course through her body as she heard that.
After a long time, she smiled bitterly. "Should I thank you for not killing me?"
The expression on her face was so pale as tears seemed to well up in her eyes that glittered with
love mingled with despair.
Kobi couldn''t help but feel a jolt in his heart when he looked at her.
This was a facial expression which he had never seen before, and he was so shocked that he could
not utter a single word.
After a long time, Emily put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands and wiped off her tears.
"Please leave me. I don''t want to see you."
Pursing his lips, he stared at her. "Aren''t you gonna ask me to let you go?"
"Will you?"
"Of course no."
"See? I knew you won''t let me go." Emilyughed sarcastically.

However, Kobi only stared at her and smiled. Suddenly, he lifted his hand to touch her face. "Why
don''t you sleep for a while?"
What?!
She didn''t want to sleep!
She had been lying on this bed for nearly twenty hours, which was a torturing experience.
Emily was about to push his hand away when she suddenly sensed that something was wrong with
her head that felt very dizzy.
"I..."
She stretched out her hand to grab Kobi''s arm and asked him confusedly, "What happened to me?"
With a grin, he answered, "You''ll be fine after the sleep."
Upon hearing what he said, she seemed to have thought of something. In disbelief, she stared at
the food and asked, "D-Did you poison the food?" "That''s a smart guess," said Kobi jovially.
Emily red at him as she understood why he had insisted on making her finish the food.
"W-What are you going to do?"
As she saw Kobi stand up, she wanted to grab his hand, but she was too weak to move. "Kobi, what
do you want to do to me?"
Squatting down, he pushed her hand away. "Don''t worry. It''s just a little poison. You''ll be fine."
She was so weak that she fainted after being pushed by Kobi, who then left the room.
Soon after that, she saw Kobie to the room with a device.
Was this why he had rented this house a long time ago?
Carrying Emily, who kept struggling, to the bed, he gave her a kiss on her forehead. "Don''t be so
stubborn. Have a good sleep, okay?"
With her eyes wide open, she asked in fear, "What''s this?"
"A device that can stimte one''s brain," Kobi did not conceal anything from her in his response.
Emily watched him turn on the device and stick some pads on her head. "Are you going to stimte
my brain?"
"Why do you want to do that?"
"Because you have witnessed something that should have been kept secret. Those memories
shouldn''t exist."
Emily had always been obtuse, and her academic results were not very bad too. She would
selectively ignore questions that she didn''t understand. Nevertheless, she was so observant at this
moment and had even guessed what he wanted to do next.
"Do you want to erase my memories?" Emily asked in shock. "That''s impossible. How is that
possible?"
"One''s memories are very unreliable and can be easily altered. For me, this kind of thing is as easy
as ABC." Kobi smiled and shook his head to interrupt her words. "Also, do you remember that your
father has been investing in my research institute? That''s what I have been studying for so many
years."
Just then, Kobi bent down and caressed her cheek while whispering softly, "If your father finds out
that the things he''s always wanted to study have ended up with his daughter, I wonder what his
expression will be like?"
