Chapter 363

Penny remained in a bowed position, seemingly awaiting Emma’s decision.

The policeman also said, “Miss Garcia, strictly speaking, Miss Nicholas’s actions don’t reach the level of breaking the law, but morally, it’s definitely not right. Miss Garcia, if you have any requests, feel free to voice them. As long as they’re within reason, I believe Miss Nicholas would be willing to comply.”

“I… I don’t have any requests,” Emma replied in panic.

“Miss Garcia, please, you must punish me,” Penny said sincerely.

“No… there’s really no need.” Emma’s heart filled with a hint of anxiety, and she quickly added, “I… I won’t pursue this matter.”

“Miss Garcia, are you sure…” the policeman was about to inquire further.

Emma nodded before she stood up and ran away.

The policeman was a little stunned. “This…”

Penny gritted her teeth and looked at Eason pitifully, “Brother, is Miss Garcia still unable to forgive me?”

Eason frowned and said directly, “I’m going to check her out.”

He left Penny behind and chased after Emma.

Penny looked at the back of Eason, and a trace of pain flashed in her eyes.

She had humbly apologized to someone she looked down on.

But in the end, Eason still chased after Emma, not even sparing her a glance.

Penny bit her lower lip tightly.

It didn’t matter. She could bear it, again and again.

What’s more, she had a tactic for this matter.

That was Judith’s dissatisfaction!

Eason could ignore Emma’s illness and her past.

But Judith couldn’t!

As a queen, Judith could ignore her daughter–in–law’s family background, but she would definitely hope that her future daughter–in–law could take on the responsibility of being a princess and join Eason in shouldering his burdens.

However, Emma had depression.

ala Chatroom JMM M It would be nice if she didn’t become a burden to Eason, let alone helping him or being a supportive wife.

If Eason insisted on being with Emma, he would not be able to get through Judith!

Penny took a deep breath, She was very unwilling to give up.

However, she really couldn’t do anything anymore.

The best way was to let Judith take action.

55% 09:51 Penny took a deep breath and smiled gently at the policeman. “Sir, if Miss Garcia has any requests, please do let me know. Whatever the request may be, as long as it’s within my capability, I won’t hesitate to fulfill it.”

Penny turned herself in with such a good attitude.

The policeman’s expression softened and he agreed. “Okay, if there is any news, I will inform you immediately.”

Eason soon caught up with Emma.

“Emma” He grabbed Emma’s arm nervously.

Emma seemed off just now, and he was concerned that her condition might relapse..

“I’m fine.” Emma lowered her head and avoided Eason’s gaze.

Eason felt sorry for her. “I’m sorry for what Penny did.”

Emma shook her head and bitterly smiled. “I can’t blame her. From her perspective, it’s understandable why she wouldn’t want someone like me to be with you.”

Emma felt that she had been too optimistic about the situation.

Even if Eason liked her, she liked Eason too, and at the moment, they were just dating with no issues arising.

If they stayed together, it was only a matter of time before they married.

Then she would have to get along with Eason’s family.

She was willing to try, but it was uncertain whether her condition could be constantly stable.

As for Eason’s family, why would they tolerate her, an emotionally unstable patient?

“Emma.” Eason frowned.

Emma looked up at Eason, her eyes slightly red. “Eason, do you think it’s time we part ways?”

A few days ago, she asked Eason if he wanted to have a try.

Jala Chatroom 55% 09:51 The next day, Eason gave her a positive reply.

The two of them had officially been together for three days.

In the past three days, Emma felt like she was in a dream.

But it was just a dream.

She was unwilling to tolerate another disappointment, nor could she accept a relationship that yielded no positive outcomes In that case, it was better to end it as soon as possible.

“Emma,” Eason said in a cold voice, “do you know what you’re talking about?”

“Yes,” Emma said with difficulty and determination, “It’s time for us to go our separate ways, Eason.”

It was best for them to end the relationship while they were still in the beginning stages and had not yet developed strong emotions for one another.

There was a sharp pain in Emma’s heart when she said this.

However, she knew that this might be the best choice.

Eason looked at Emma and said coldly, “I don’t agree.”

Emma lowered her head and said softly, “Eason, we can choose to be together willfully. However, what happened to Penny reminds me of one thing. You are not alone. You have a family. If you choose me, you’ll be like bearing a burden. Perhaps, you are willing to do that, but what about your family? What obligation do they have to bear such a burden with you?”

Emma looked up at Eason and said, “So, Eason, it was not Penny who was wrong. It was us.”

Emma explained her thoughts in a serious tone.

Then, she didn’t dare to look at the expression of Eason. She turned around and was about to leave.

“Emma.” Eason stopped her again.

“You’re a smart person, Eason,” Emma said softly. “You should know that I’m right. Since the two of us are destined not to end up together, perhaps it’s better not to start at all.”

Some people might prefer to savor the present moment without worrying about the outcome.

But Emma knew that she was not that kind of person.

She was so serious that even she was a little scared.

She feared that her deepening feelings for Eason would cause her to persist in her pursuit of him, even if he regretted it and wanted to leave in the future, and that she would be willing to risk everything for him.

Join Chatroom In that case, even she would look down on herself.

“Choosing to give up when faced with challenges. Is that your decision?” Eason asked with a cold face.

“It’s not that I choose to give up. Giving up is the best choice.” Emma trembled.

Eason sneered. “From a young age, I’ve always known that I must fight for what I want. I won’t give up until I’ve at least tried. Emma, I’m not sure if we can make it to the end, but if I quit, it’ll only be because our feelings for each other have faded, not because of any other weird reasons.

Eason sounded calm and confident.

Emma was stunned and looked at Eason in a daze.

People like Eason were born to shine.

People like her were like the dust on the ground.

She thought that she could only admire the light forever.

But one day, the light took the initiative to hug her.

Emma had always felt that this was a miracle.

What did a miracle mean?

Even if it did happen, it might be fleeting.

Emma had always felt uncertain about her relationship with Eason. She always felt that she would lose him at any time.

Therefore, this time, after encountering a minor setback, she was quick to throw in the towel.

It was as if, if she suggested giving up first, she wouldn’t be considered as being abandoned.

But Eason told her that he would fight for anything he wanted in such a fierce and rude way.

At this moment, Emma felt her heart beating wildly.

The speed of her heartbeat made her feel as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

“…” Emma wanted to say something.

Eason softened his expression and interrupted Emma gently but firmly, “Why don’t we make a bet?”

“Eh?” Emma looked at Eason in a daze.

“What you’re worried about now is that my family won’t accept you. Penny knew that she was wrong and probably won’t stand in the way. The only issue is my mother. So, let’s bet on her attitude,” Eason said confidently.

“How should we go about it?” Emma looked at him blankly.

55% 09:52 Eason smiled and said, “It’s simple. Give me three days to persuade my mom. After three days, I’ll take you to meet her. If, at that time, she shows even the slightest sign of dissatisfaction with you, we part ways. If she chooses to support us, then we continue. How about that?”

‘Is it possible to make a bet like this? Emma thought.

Emma was a little stunned.

Obviously, if Judith knew that Emma had depression, she would definitely not be satisfied with her.

Was it possible to completely change the attitude of Judith in three days?

“To bet or not to bet? Eason raised his eyebrows.

Emma glanced at him timidly and said, “Then… let’s give it a try?”

Eason smiled and ruffled her hair. “Silly girl, just trust me.”

Eason was so confident and charming.

Emma’s face turned slightly red.

A few minutes later.

Eason saw Emma off and returned to his car.

However, the confident and charming Eason immediately took out his mobile phone and made a phone call..

As soon as the phone was connected, he said flatteringly, “Susan, you must help me this time.”

That humble demeanor was a far cry from the previously confident look.

Susan was also a little confused when she received the call, “Hmm?”

Eason told her the whole story quickly and then said pitifully, “Susan, no one can help me except you this time. If you don’t help me, I’m going to live in your house.”

After listening to the whole story, Susan was still in shock. When she heard how Eason pleaded, she could not help want to laugh.

However, after thinking about it, Susan felt that she really had to help him with it.

“I’ll give it a try,” said Susan.

Eason was overjoyed. “I’m relying on you for this.”

He was very self–aware.

Judith usually didn’t take his opinion seriously.

but Moreover, if he put in a good word for Emma in front of Judith, it might backfire.

It was the best way to get Susan to speak up for them.

“That’s…” Susan hung up the phone and smiled helplessly Although she was helpless, she went to find Judith that night.

When Susan arrived, Judith and Penny had just finished dinner.

Judith was asking Penny something, and her face did not look good.

Susan walked over with a smile. “Aunt Judith, Penny.”

1son 6932 “Susan, you’re here.” Judith, who had been wearing a straight face, immediately smiled brightly. She walked over and pulled Susan to her side with her own hands.

Susan chuckled. “What are you guys talking about? The atmosphere seems a bit tense.”

Judith looked gloomy again. She said angrily, “It’s all because of Emma. I’m an open–minded mother. I don’t care about Emma’s background. I just want her to be healthy. Is that too much to ask? How can your brother be with someone whose mood is so unpredictable? Penny was in the right to not want her to be with Eason. So why did Penny have to apologize? And Emma accepted it without even considering whether she deserved it or not!”

Judith got angrier and angrier as she spoke, looking like a ticking time bomb.

The attitude of Judith was completely within the expectations of Penny.

Penny’s eyes slightly flashed, but she said softly, “Mom, I was wrong.”

Judith said unreasonably, “It’s nice of you to apologize. It’s her fault that she accepted it.”

“Mom.” Penny timely showed a helpless expression.

Susan’s gaze flickered slightly.

Judith’s bias against Emma was even more pronounced than she had imagined.

“What gives Eason the assurance to assure Emma that he would take care of the situation with Judith within three days?

“It’s one thing for him to brag, but I’m the one left to deal with the consequences, Susan thought.

Susan sighed and began to work.

Instead of talking about Emma, she said softly, “Aunt Judith, I want to stay here tonight and sleep with you, okay?”

Judith suddenly showed a look of surprise. “Of course.”

It was unusual for Susan to express such intimacy, so Judith couldn’t turn her down.

1x 09:52 Tim feeling a bit fanely with Ben away on his business trip. It’d be great to catch up and chat, Susan said with a smile. “Yes, absolutely dith happily sureed, completely forgetting that she was angry just now.

Penny frowned She felt that it was a little strange that Susan suddenly wanted to stay.

But after thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be no problem.

Perhaps, Susan simply wanted to show some intimacy to Judith Penny now focused on driving Emma nway and did not care about how close Susan and Judith were Anyway, no matter how good their relationship was, her position remained rock solid.

In the evening Susan and Judith slept in the naine toom.

Susan leaned against the bed and played games on her phone.

Judith did not play games, but she wanted to chat with Susan So, she asked curiously, “tusan, what game are you playing?”

“It’s a story–driven game. If you’re interested, you can join me, Aunt Judith.” Susan smiled.

Judith was eager to engage in more conversation with Susan, so she quickly agreed.

After helping Judith with downloading the game, Susan introduced her to some basic operations and then allowed Judith to play by hersell.

Initially, Judith played this game to create shared topics of discussion with Suman.

But as she played, she was immersed in it.

The main reason was that the operation of this game was really simple. The game was mainly based on the story. With a story driven focus, Judith only had to make a few practical decisions.

The game was very short.

la story.

In an hour, Judith finished the whole story.

Although the operation of this game was average, the story was really amazing.

By the time Judith was done, her face was covered with tears.

That was a love story.

55% 09:52 Judith seemed to experience a heart–wrenching love, and profound sadness after playing the game, a feeling she knew she would never forget.

“What’s wrong? Did this game make you so sad?” Susan quickly said, “Let’s change to another one.”

This time, Susan found a joyful game.

Judith was originally full of sadness. After playing the game for a while, she began to smile from time to time.

a “The game designer of this game is so amazing. How could he think of such a funny story? He must be a very optimistic and cheerful person.” Judith couldn’t help asking Susan said gently. “This designer’s games are masterpieces of storytelling. These two are only her ordinary level of work. If you’re interested, I’ve got her top–notch work.”

‘A game that makes people cry one moment and laugh the next, and it’s only her ordinary level of work?

“How amazing would that top–notch work be? Judith thought.

Judith was intrigued right away. “Then I must give it a try!”

Susan copied the game for Judith, then beamed with delight as she watched Judith become engrossed in playing.

She didn’t expect it would be so easy to spark Judith’s interest in the game.

It seemed there was hope for completing Eason’s request.
