C8 I Don't like You!

"Forget it! It's rare for Emily to come home every half a year, so there's no need to be angry over such a small matter."

Father Bernard rubbed his temples in a pained manner. This slightly aged man was a little helpless.

Sister-in-law pouted her lips, clearly dissatisfied.

After all, she had nothing to say after Father Bernard's words. Her husband had gone to work early in the morning, and no one was there to help her vent her anger. She could only eat her breakfast, her gaze occasionally glancing towards Emily.

"Oh, right, I haven't asked about the blind date yesterday." Sister-in-law's thin lips touched each other as she said, "I went back to my room and slept last night. I didn't report to Father about the situation! How is it? Did he not like you?"

Speaking of which, Sister-in-law had always regarded Emily as a thorn in her side. Because of what happened to her mother, Father Bernard had always felt guilty towards her. He had always wanted to make up for his daughter, and he had even given her a lot of shares in the company.

Nowadays, men and women were getting more and more equal. Who knew when the old man would leave the world and distribute a lot of inheritance to Emily?

Sister-in-law's heart was as clear as a mirror, so she liked to harshly criticize Emily. She was eager to cause a ruckus.

"I'm not ugly. If I say that I don't like her, then I should be the one who doesn't like her." Emily retorted coldly.

"Oh, her status is not bad. The Rodriguez family is a wealthy family that can shake the entire capital. Their businesses are spread throughout the country!" Sister-in-law pursed her lips and said angrily, "If it wasn't for Father desperately trying to pull connections for you, how could you find such a good husband? If you want someone else, even if you were dreaming, you would have to wake up. You still don't know what's good for you!"

If she could marry such a person, then she would not care about a little girl like Emily!

"With how shallow your eyes are, you can only stay in the Williams' family and talk nonsense with me."

Her words were like a knife stabbing into her sister-in-law's heart. The knife was still bleeding, and her sister-in-law's face was as black as it could get!

"Dad, can't you just take care of her? With her temper, no man would dare to take her! I think she might have scared the other party away yesterday. If she offends the Rodriguez family, the consequences will be unbearable!"

"Emily, your sister-in-law is right! Your temper has gotten worse over the years!" Father Shaw's expression was ugly. "Tell me, did you do anything wrong yesterday? The Rodriguez family is not like those small families in the past. You can't offend them. If you offend them, you might end up becoming enemies instead."

"Damn it!"

Emily could not take it anymore. She threw the cup of milk onto the ground and splashed the liquid all over the floor.

She, Emily, was so despicable that the Williams family had to push her out to seduce men!

Her sister-in-law kept provoking her, but no one spoke up for her. Even her father kept scolding her. What did she do wrong? She was just eating breakfast!

Emily had been in the entertainment industry for a long time. No one could see the sadness in her heart. In the end, she did not even have a place to rest. When she returned home, she was still being ridiculed. Although she was strong and fierce on the surface, her nose was still sour at this moment.

Emily took a deep breath and felt that she couldn't stand staying in the Williams' family for another second. She turned around and walked towards the main entrance.

"Niece, stop right there!" When Bernard saw that Emily was about to leave, he was so angry that he threw his chopsticks in the air.

Emily's footsteps were still as fast as ever. The moment the door was pushed open, the glaring sunlight made her eyes hurt.

It was unknown whether it was because she was unable to control her emotions or because she was tearing up, but her eyes were red and tears rolled down her cheeks.

What entered her line of sight was a black Lincoln limousine. The luxurious and elegant car reflected a low-profile light.

Beside the car, a peerless man was looking down at his phone. The bright light reflected off the black hair, long eyebrows, and phoenix eyes, which were stunning and blurred her line of sight.

Emily felt her pocket tremble.

She took out her phone and looked at the message. It was a message from Patrick: "Are you up, Iron Lady?"

Her nose was even more sore. The man in front of her seemed to have sensed something as well. The moment their gazes met, time seemed to slow down, as if it had been frozen for a century.

The woman was not as sloppy as she had been yesterday. Her hair was tied into a ponytail, and her tight white shirt outlined her good figure. Her straight black jeans made her legs look slender and elegant. She looked valiant and beautiful. This morning, she suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
