Chapter 350
On that day, Emily hid in the villa and witnessed Thomas’ miracles with her own eyes. Since then, she had been filled with curiosity about him. Gunnar, the Genius of Capitalis, was no match for him. Even Rafael, a powerful figure with extraordinary perceptiveness, shows such respect for him. I wonder what kind of man he is.
Emily, with a height of 5’7″, had a well-proportioned figure like Olivia. Her oval face was stunningly beautiful, making her a remarkable beauty. However, instead of the cold arrogance Olivia had, Emily had a touch of playfulness, making her more of an adorable type.
Thomas only glanced at her for one second before retracting his gaze. It’s important to show respect when meeting someone for the first time. Staring at them would be incredibly disrespectful, especially when it’s a young woman.
“Hello, Thomas. I’m Emily. Kyrie is my grandfather, and Colby is my brother.” She took the initiative to reach out her hand and introduce herself with a smile.
When he heard that, his expression froze. Wait, she’s Colby’s sister? That means she’s the lady of the Travis Family. Why did they send the lady of the family to deliver a pill? But this shows how seriously the Travis Family takes this matter.
As a grateful person, he silently noted down everything the Travis Family had done for him. If they needed him in the future, he would definitely repay their kindness.
After they shook hands, Emily took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to Thomas. “There’s a Toxin Expulsion Pill inside. I believe my brother has already told you its specific purpose, right?”
“He did.” Thomas nodded.
“Well, let me remind you that Miss Pearson probably doesn’t know about the sacrificial mission she carries. When you give her this medicine, it’s better not to tell her. Otherwise, she might not be able to accept it.”
“Don’t worry. I know.”
It would be difficult for anyone, let alone Olivia, to accept the fact that she was designated as a sacrifice by her biological father and needed to face the tragic fate of having her blood drained after being humiliated.
After that, Thomas invited Emily to get in the car. Since the Travis Family had helped him so much, and now that the lady of the family had come to his turf, he had to extend his hospitality, of course.
On the way, she kept staring at him without taking her eyes off him. It seemed like she wanted to see through the enigmatic man before her with this approach.
However, he couldn’t handle it. A minute or two would be fine, but being stared at by a stunningly beautiful young girl for half an hour made his face blush like an apple.
“Oh, Thomas. I didn’t expect you to be so easily embarrassed.” She started teasing him, being the outgoing person she was. If it weren’t for seeing it with my own eyes, who would believe that this shy young man and the confident and powerful man who dominated the Travis Family’s arena two days ago are the same person?
Thomas shook his head helplessly, his face becoming even redder as if he could start bleeding at any moment.
After a while, the car stopped at Northpine Villa. It was still early, so he wanted to let Emily rest at home and wait until Olivia finished work in the evening. Then, the three of them could go out together for a meal.
Just as the two entered the villa, they saw Chloe coming down from upstairs. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“Thomas, you’re back.” Chloe had a smile on her face, and she was holding Thomas’ just-changed quilt cover in her hands.
Before Thomas went to Capitalis, he had left a key to this place for her. Although she knew he had returned from Capitalis, she was still a little worried. She had waited at home the whole day but didn’t see him return to the rental house. So, she decided to come and check on him and tidy up the house, changing the bed sheets and quilt cover.
However, when she saw Emily standing beside Thomas, the smile on her face instantly froze. Who is she? Why is she with Thomas? Why did he bring her home? Wasn’t he living here with Olivia? Why did a girl suddenly come out of nowhere?
A bunch of questions appeared in her mind. I already have enough rivals. I absolutely cannot add any more. I have Molly as an internal concern and Olivia as an external threat. If this girl joins the picture as well, how am I supposed to survive? Will it take forever to win over my beloved Thomas?
Like Chloe, Emily also blinked her curious eyes as she stared at her. Who is this beautiful girl? She looks like a gentle lady who has stepped out of an ancient painting.
Meanwhile, Thomas felt awkward, for he hadn’t expected Chloe to come to Northpine Villa, especially without notifying him.
“Ahem, let me introduce you. This is my sister, Chloe. And this is Emily, my friend’s sister. She just got off the plane.”
Ah, I see! Chloe finally calmed the racing heart in her chest. She hadn’t clearly remembered what Emily’s relationship was with Thomas. All she knew was that as long as the girl wasn’t his girlfriend, it was fine.
“Hello,” Chloe said, taking the initiative to greet her.
In reply, Emily put on a faint smile. She wasn’t reserved and was outgoing, so in no time, the two started chatting.
Ring! Ring!
Just then, Thomas’ phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was from Quincy.
“Hello,” he answered the call and walked out of the villa.
“Thomas, Taylor said that he wanted to meet you but you rejected him?” Quincy called him about this matter. The man Taylor had sent to Keyshire Property didn’t see Thomas at all, so Taylor had no choice but to tell Quincy to reach out to Thomas and arrange a meeting between them.
Taylor was currently waiting in Quincy’s office. Of course, he didn’t come empty-handed. He brought important information for Quincy.
The joint operation of the four families to capture Olivia had failed, enraging the six old monsters. Originally, they had planned to complete Olivia’s sacrificial ceremony first and then deal with Thomas, but now they had changed their minds. They wanted to kill Thomas first and then capture Olivia. Tomorrow at noon, they would come looking for trouble with Thomas.
When Taylor found out, he couldn’t sit still anymore. I have to reach an agreement with Thomas before the six old monsters attack him. He didn’t care about Thomas’ life or death; what he cared about was whether his family could escape from the Six Greatest Families.
“Well, you can say that.” Thomas didn’t plan to hide, so he told the truth.
“Come to my office now, Thomas. Taylor is waiting for you here. We’ll talk when we meet. He wants to cooperate with you.”
At his words, Thomas was taken aback. Taylor wants to cooperate with me? What kind of cooperation are we talking about?
