Emily Allen lay on Ryan Richard’s chest, and sighed when she heard his question.
She lightly pat his chest and complained, "It can’t be helped, he dare not go."
Upon hearing this, Ryan was shocked and began to sit up, looking at Emily with surprise, "Why?"
Emily was startled by his reaction, looking back at him blankly.
He imdiately realized his mistake, thinking he couldn’t let Emily think he was using her.
So he quickly lied back down, pulling her into his arms again and kissing her forehead.
"No, I was wondering, if we finalize this quickly would we both be rich?"
Emily was a bit skeptical, but she didn’t argue with him, and said, "You do know who Charlotte Thompson is working with now, it’s Justin Battleson! If he finds out we’re threatening Charlotte behind her back, there’ll be hell to pay. That’s why dad won’t go."
Justin Battleson, again Justin Battleson?
Ryan Richard fell into deep thought, he clearly rembered how Justin Battleson beat and humiliated him last ti. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have co to find Emily Allen.
However, Justin Battleson is still the stumbling block here. Does he really have to give up?
The answer is no, he will never compromise!
Seeing Ryan quiet, Emily curiously asked, "What are you thinking?"
Realizing, Ryan quickly softened his expression, and with a smile, he pulled Emily into his arms again.
He delicately asked, "Did you try to ask? There might be so room for a turnaround. Think about it, so much money, it’s not sothing we can earn in this lifeti, right?"
Emily’s eyes flickered, she couldn’t give up, but what could she do? Her father Ethan Allen’s concern was not groundless, and she couldn’t ignore Justin Battleson’s influence.
She pushed Ryan away, and helplessly said, "We can’t make that kind of money, but Charlotte has it, and she has Justin Battleson supporting her. What can I do?"
Ryan Richard wasn’t willing to give up, and continued, "It’s okay, you can go back and persuade your uncle again. Maybe if Charlotte really values family affection, she will be willing to settle with money!"
Emily was moved.
After all, she could despise her mother and her for Aunt Watson, which showed she did care about family relations. Perhaps Charlotte would care more about her relationship with her biological father Ethan Allen.
...
At the Allen family, after Emily left, Ethan Allen continued to drown his sorrows in his study.
Mia Stewart couldn’t stand it anymore, and brought up the matter about Charlotte Thompson again when she ca to serve him fruit.
"I can’t go on living like this, relying on your small factory for a living. Taking care of your daily needs is tough enough. Now that it’s conclusively proven that Charlotte is Sophie Allen, I don’t care.... if you don’t approach her for money..."
Mia put on her old airs and began to threaten Ethan Allen.
Ethan is not one to be ssed with, he smashed his glass and roared, "Whoever wants to go, just go! I won’t do it. Do you know who Justin Battleson is? I’d be courting death if he found out."
Mia didn’t give up and said cunningly, "You could go quietly, without letting him find out?"
Ethan looked at her, hesitating.
He knew the fate of the Allen family was in his hands, and he wasn’t willing to let the family decline.
"Ethan, you know I married you, gave birth to Emily, and have I ever led a happy life...?"
"Initially we were doing well, but then that wench Sophie Allen humiliated us at Emily’s birthday party, and then so unknown power destroyed our company, what kind of life have we lived these past five years?"
"Ethan Allen! I’ve had enough!"
Mia suddenly started crying and whining, and Ethan was heartbroken.
He admonished her a few tis, but the buzzing in his ears made him uncomfortable.
After Mia left, Ethan sat at his desk, itching to do sothing.
Regarding Charlotte’s current position, if he could nd the relationship, he could rise with the tide.
But, would Charlotte really forgive the Allen family? He was uncertain.
After considering for a long ti, he slapped the table and made up his mind.
