Stay Around You Now And Forever

Chapter 304: Never Giving up

Emily did not know when her stomach had become so fragile.

Just looking at some unsightly food, she vomited for a long time.

Most importantly, because there was no food in her stomach, she was retching.

Finally, she stopped retch and changed into a new set of clothes. In the end, she ate takeout.

In the evening, Henry went back to his room to take a bath, but she took out the business card from her bag and called Joe.

“Help me investigate one person, Luke Cooke from Luke’s Detective Agency.”

This was the first way she thought after sleeping in car by the sea.

She found the card in Matriarch Jackson’s book. It meant that Matriarch Jackson must have looked for the private detective.

At first, she did not know Wendy at all.

In other words, this detective agency told Matriarch Jackson that she was the one who Matriarch Jackson was looking for.

“What’s more, please find another person.”

…

Two days later, it was weekend. Emily arranged the matter with the Sharp Group and went out with Joe.

“Luke received a huge sum of money three months ago. After that, he went abroad to travel. This detective agency was also closed and relocated.”

“A huge sum of money?” Emily stopped her fingers to swipe the phone as she looked at his side face.

“That’s right. Do not worry. I have already checked everything for you. The money was indeed transferred by Matriarch Jackson.”

Emily felt nervous as she stared at him, “So, maybe he went abroad because of Matriarch Jackson’s order.”

It must be because Matriarch Jackson did not want the Jackson family to know about this matter, especially Patriarch Jackson. Therefore, she gave a huge sum of money for Luke to leave.

He said that he was going on a tour, but she was afraid that he would not return to Bentson City in a short time.

From the beginning, Matriarch Jackson did not want Patriarch Jackson to know his granddaughter’s existence.

Emily was also a woman. She could understand Matriarch Jackson’s worries. She was afraid that Patriarch Jackson would not like the existence of his granddaughter.

However, she was reluctant to leave her granddaughter behind, so she tried her best to get Hunter to be engaged to her.

Matriarch Jackson wanted her granddaughter to stay with her, and marriage was the best way to get her back to the Jackson family.

This could explain why Matriarch Jackson had always been so persistent in her previous life and insisted on Hunter marrying her.

She had done a lot for her granddaughter.

“Milady, this person who was found out, must be you. Otherwise, Matriarch Jackson wouldn’t have performed like that.”

Joe grasped the steering wheel and said firmly, “But don’t worry. I will definitely help you find Luke!”

Emily nodded and calmed down.

The enemies they had to face were too powerful. They could even change the information in the hospital database. What else could they not do?

If it was someone else, she might have already given up.

However, she would not give up, and she definitely could not!

“Joe, you have to be careful too. I don’t know if those people will be watching you.”

“What do they dare to do in a public place? Do not worry. I will be fine.”

The car stopped on a street. Joe got off the car first, and Emily followed him.

“Is she here?” This place looked a little remote as it was surrounded by some small restaurants and some cheap brand clothing shops.

Joe suddenly stopped talking because he had already seen the girl in front of him, “She works nearby. I’ll go and take a look.”

When the girl saw Joe, she did not notice him. However, after seeing Emily standing with Joe, her expression changed and she turned around and left.

“It’s her! Joe, quickly chase her back!” Emily immediately rushed forward.

Joe was much faster than her. In a few seconds, he chased after her and blocked the girl into a corner of the street.

“What are you doing? You… If you dare to come over again, I will call for help!” The girl said in a deep voice.

“I don’t want to do anything, but she has something to ask you.”

Joe was expressionless as he looked at Emily.

When the girl saw Emily, she immediately turned her face away and said, “You’ve got the wrong person. I have to go back to work. Go away!”

“How long do you want to hide?” Emily quickened her pace and walked over.

She didn’t know what had happened in these two days. She felt a bit uncomfortable. She walked a little faster and began to be out of breath.

In the past, she wasn’t so weak!

Emily ignored her inexplicable weakness and stared at Evie seriously.

“Why don’t you look at me? Are you feeling guilty? Evie, you did something wrong to me!”

“I didn’t!” This girl was indeed the maid she had fired from the Jackson family, Evie.

Evie looked at her and said unhappily, “What kind of guilt do I have towards you? You drove me away from the Jackson family. Shouldn’t you be guilty of me?”

“You helped Wendy. If she wanted to deal with Matriarch Jackson, you would be the spy Wendy places to her!”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. Milady, you’re not the young madam of the Jackson family now, and I’m not the maid of the Jackson family. Why are you questioning me?” Evie’s expression changed, but she quickly recovered her composure.

“I have evidence of your collusion with Wendy.”

As expected, Evie changed her expression. However, Emily knew her little change.

She was the spy Wendy had placed next to Matriarch Jackson. At that time, she felt that something was wrong with Evie.

An ordinary maid wouldn’t be so presumptuous in front of her host.

Sure enough, it was because she had a backer.

“Milady, don’t say nonsense. I’ve already left the Jackson family. You cannot do anything to me anymore.”

Emily ignored her words and asked indifferently, “How much did Wendy pay you?”

“I... I didn’t receive any money!” Evie turned up the volume and said loudly.

“You are not guilty. Why are you saying so loudly?” Joe snorted and said disdainfully, “I’ll find out if you receive the money.”

“What can you find?”

“He can find anything, including your relatives in City L and your illegitimate daughter.”

“What are you talking about?” Emily’s words made Evie so anxious that she almost jumped up.

How did she know? How would she know?

“You are very cautious. You even control yourself not to visit her. It’s impossible for others to know that you were already… when you were seventeen.”

“Shut up! Shut up! I didn’t, I didn’t do anything!”

Evie was so emotional that she wanted to pounce over and covered Emily’s mouth.

Joe pushed her back, “Don’t worry. No one else knows about this matter yet.”

“What exactly do you want to do?” Evie was so angry and anxious that tears almost rolled down her cheeks.

No one should know her illegitimate daughter!

She had a boyfriend now. If her boyfriend knew it, he would break up with her!

“I didn’t want to embarrass you. As long as you’re honest, I won’t tell your boyfriend.”

Emily’s compassion was almost gone in her previous life. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

These people had once lied to Matriarch Jackson, but she had tried her best not to destroy them.

“Tell me, what happened to the day Wendy appeared in front of Matriarch Jackson with Talia’s clothes? What did you do to her before I came?”
