Chapter 346
Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love
Emma took the car and left.
Judith then darkened her face and averted her eyes to Eason.
She stared at Eason expressionlessly. âYouâve done a good job.â
Eason tried to defend himself and said, âMom, believe me. I didnât do that.â
âDonât deny it anymore.â Judith was angry. âIf you truly like her, you should admit it. Why are you so irresponsible? Eason, you really let me down.â
Eason was speechless and didnât know how to reply to his mother.
He was sure that he had been wrongly accused.
Judith looked at Eason and asked again, âOr are you really playing tricks on that girl?â
Eason didnât know how to defend himself.
So he simply gave no words.
Judith snorted and said, âIf you like her, then you have to treat her well. I donât care about her family background. As long as she is a good girl, I will be satisfied enough. As for Caroline, I will talk to her for you. Understand?â
Eason said helplessly, âMom, itâs a misunderstanding.â
âMisunderstanding?â Judith was enraged. âIâve already arranged everything well for you. Take the opportunity.â
âButâ¦â Eason wanted to say something more.
However, Judith looked at him coldly. âCharacter is of great importance. Donât let me down.â
Emergency calls only u Eason was utterly speechless.
Now it had been a hard problem to deal with.
If he said that he didnât like Emma, it seemed that he was playing tricks on her and then he would become a real scumbag.
But it was true that he had never sent such a message to Emma.
Of course, no one believed him when he told the truth.
Looking at the bright eyes of Judith, Eason could only nod and say, âYes, I got it.â
âHum, thatâs fine.â Judith snorted. In fact, she was quite delighted.
She was so happy to see her son fall in love with a girl and the girl seemed to have a crush on Eason as well. With her assistance, Judith believed that her wish to have grandchildren was about to come true.
Judith smiled in delight.
Eason was rather puzzled.
He had no idea who sent the message to Emma.
He was sure that he had never sent such a message.
But the message did exist.
Eason went back home.
Knitting his brows, Eason was pondering the problem.
Meanwhile, Penny came downstairs. When she saw Eason frowning and looking unhappy, she got a bit excited.
She walked up to Eason and said gently, âEason, donât you have a blind date today? Why are you back so early?â
Penny pretended to have a headache and did not go with Eason.
As Eason and Judith left, Penny secretly followed them. Then she abetted Emma at the door.
Seeing Emma come in, Penny immediately left for fear of being discovered.
Therefore, Penny still did not know what had happened in the Orange Bistro.
âThereâs something wrong,â responded Eason with a worried expression on his face.
âSomething wrong?â Penny was overjoyed.
She was more than happy to see that there was something wrong.
Emma seemed to have really messed up Easonâs blind date.
âYes,â Eason replied simply, as he was unwilling to say more.
Seeing that, Penny was relieved.
It seemed that the blind date had been completely destroyed.
âEason, itâs okay to have an unsuccessful blind date. You are so excellent that you will definitely find a great girlfriend in the future,â Penny comforted him in a gentle voice..
Eason nodded in reply.
Penny was afraid that she would give herself away, so she went back to her room after talking with Eason for a short while.
Eason stared at the back of Penny, and a light flashed in his eyes.
When Emma took out her phone to show him the message.
He took a glance at the specific time.
Now he recalled what was going on when Emma received this text messageâ¦
Emergency calls only When he came out of the bathroom after taking a shower this afternoon, he happened to see Penny holding his phone.
He was sure that he was not the one who sent the message.
And the other people didnât have a chance to get in touch with his phone.
While Penny was an exception.
Eason frowned, confused.
Penny?
If it was Penny who sent the message, why did she do that?
Was she deliberately playing jokes on Emma?
Why?
Eason had no idea why Penny sent the message.
If he questioned Penny in person, she would definitely feel embarrassed. Eason didnât want to do that for the time being.
However, Eason couldnât help feeling guilty when he thought of Emmaâs wet eyes.
He didnât lie to Emma. But Penny, who sent the message, was his younger sister. Then there would be no difference.
Eason couldnât help thinking of the scene when Emma came in.
She was pretty nervous and shy.
Emma was a timid girl, but she encouraged herself to tell him her feelings seriously.
If Eason told her that the message was fakeâ¦
And it was just a prankâ¦
How embarrassed and sad would Emma be?
For some reason, Eason felt a little distressed and worried.
Knowing nothing about the truth, Judith happily began to prepare for the dinner of the next day.
She also sent her people to investigate Emma.
Knowing that Emma worked for Susan and had a good relationship with Susan, Judith told Susan about the dinner, inviting her to come with Emma. Then Emma would feel much better while having dinner with them.
Susan hung up the phone.
She couldnât help but feel a little confused.
What⦠What was going on?
Susan began wondering if she had misheard.
Eason wanted to pursue Emma!
The two of them didnât seem to get along well with each other at first.
Why did he suddenly fall in love with Emma?
Was it the destined love?
Susan didnât know what was going on, but she felt quite happy for Eason.
After all, Susan firmly believed that Emma was a good girl.
The next day came soon.
It was approaching the offâduty time.
Emma kept looking at her watch with a nervous expression.
Yesterday she got muddled up, giving Judith her phone number and even promising Judith a bunch of things.
For example⦠she should go to the Nicholas family for dinner tonight.
And now it was almost time.
She had completely regretted following Judithâs advice.
How could she agree to have dinner with them at that time?
When she tried to recall what was going on at that time, she only remembered the gentle smile of Judith.
Judith seemed to have the magic that she could make people want to promise her everything.g Emma glanced at her watch again.
One minute later, it would be the time to get off work.
She didnât want to go to the Nicholas family.
So she had to find an excuse as soon as possible.
Would it be okay to say that she had a stomachache?
What about telling them that she had something urgent to do?â
Emma was trying her best to come up with an excuse.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
When Emma opened the door, Susan winked at her and said, âLetâs go. Iâll come to have dinner with you.â
Emergency calls only profound sense of fear and foreboding arose in Emmaâs mind. âWhere⦠where are we going?â
Susan looked at her blankly. âThe Nicholas family. Didnât you make an appointment with them?â
Emma dried up.
Was it too late if she said that she suddenly had a stomachache?
âCome on.â Susan smiled at her.
Emma didnât give any words.
It seemed that there was no time left for her.
Ben was already waiting downstairs.
It was the first time for Emma to sit in one car with her boss. She was so nervous that she stood there still.
She couldnât wait to finish the trip as soon as possible.
But she changed her mind when she realized that she would reach the Nicholas family when the car stopped.
She wished that the car could run ahead forever.
