Chapter 65

Chapter 65 Brad and Elsie stayed in the hospital.

They wanted to ted to keep tabs on Liam’s latest condition and to prevent Emma from finding out the mastermind behind the car accident.

With Liam’s fate uncertain, Emma had to deal with these two people on his behalf.

“You don’t have to accompany me,” Emma said, her tone very calm. “If there’s any new update about him, I’ll inform you.”

But Elsie said sarcastically, “What do you mean you will inform us? Liam is a member of our family, and Brad is his blood brother!”

“Emma, it happens that I’m not busy at the company today,” Brad said, “Let me stay here and keep Liam company any too.”

Emma thought, “With just a few words, they actually refuse to leave. Since they’re not cooperating, I’ll have to get tough.”

She came up with an excuse and walked to the fire escape to make a call.

“Vere, your first task is here now,” she said, It had been a few days since Vere joined Emma’s organization. In addition to preparing for his studies abroad, he had also gotten to know Josiah and other subordinates of Emma.

This phone call from Emma undoubtedly excited him greatly.

He was in a crowded environment, and he was eager to give it a try.

“What do you need me to do?” he asked.

Emma sneered and said, “The person you’ll be dealing with today is Brad, the person who currently wields the most power in the Hall family. Do you dare to do it?”

Ten minutes later, when Emma returned from the fire escape, Brad and Elsie were still shamelessly guarding the entrance of Liam’s ward.

When Emma was away earlier, Elsie tried to ask the doctor about Liam’s condition. To her surprise, the doctor and Levi were Liam’s lackeys. Not only did they not tell her, but they treated her very coldly Elsie was sulking.

When she saw Emma, she spoke even more sarcastically.

“Humph, isn’t a certain someone afraid that we may play tricks?” she said. “How come that person still has time to make calls?

Why doesn’t that person stand guard by the door of the ward 24/7?”

“Mom, don’t talk to Emma like that,” Brad persuaded politely.

In public, he often gave off a humble and polite vibe. Compared to Liam’s decisive and forceful demeanor, many people thought Brad was the one more worth working for.

This was a person who was good at confusing others. It was as if he was really speaking up for Emma.

But Emma remained resolute, unmoved in the slightest, “How much longer are you guys going to keep watch here?” Emma said. “You want me to call Mr. Simon and ask him to send you back, huh?”

Elsie smiled smugly and said, “Don’t think you can rely on a little cleverness to get Simon to back you up. He has never sided with anyone, especially not with an ambitious ingrate like Liam!”

“Oh, by the way.” Elsie continued as she looked at Emma, “Mr. Simon went to Ralbridge for a meeting yesterday. He’s probably too busy to take calls right now. Do you need me to call him for you?”

Ordinary people would have been furious when they heard this, but Emma was eerily calm.

Before long, Brad’s phone rang.

He picked up the phone. His long legs, wrapped in suit pants, moved a few steps into the distance.

“Hello?” he said. “What?”

Emma could sense the subtle change in Brad’s tone.

She thought, Though he is expressionless, he must be burning with anxiety right now!‘

After hanging up. Brad frowned and returned with an extremely grim expression.

“I have something urgent to attend to at the office,” he said. “Mom, you should go home earlier too Elsie was shocked. “What could be so urgent that it’s more important than the current matter?” she asked.

Brad glanced at Emma, his expression incredibly complex He did not say much, but he had already begun to call someone to send Elsie home.

“Brad, you have come to your senses and want to leave, huh? Emma said. “See, I told you. You should show some sincerity if you want to pray for your brother. Go to the church and earnestly pray for blessings. No one prays for blessings by facing a ward.

If word gets out, won’t people laugh their heads off? Haha...”

Emma’s bright little face looked innocent and pure. She smiled without any reservation.

Levi, who was at the side, noticed that menace surged in Brad’s gaze as he looked at Emma.

He thought, ‘And she can actually laugh at him heartily! She’s simply fearless!‘

Brad looked at Emma with a sinister expression and said, “Then you stay here and keep my brother company!”

Emma ignored the sense of warning in his words.

Brad thought, “If I can put Liam in deep shit and cause him to be severely injured, I can also send her to the grave with him.

Emma only smiled and waved at him, saying, “Thank you, I won’t wish for you to go to jail to keep Kate company. Drive safe as you head to the office.”

When Brad left, the veins on his forehead were bulging.

Levi could not help but give Emma a thumbs up.

He said, “Mrs. Hall, you’re really witty... I’ve never seen Mr. Brad lose his composure like this before!”

Emma sneered and said, “Everyone has their weaknesses. Those with weak character will reveal their true colors at the slightest pressure.”

2/4 Chapter 65 Levi nodded like a chick pecking at seeds.

He suddenly realized something. “Mrs. Hall’s face was still pale when she came to the hospital earlier, but when she saw Brad and his mom, she instantly changed her state, he thought. Her readiness for confrontation was exceptionally high. Later, she mocked Brad with an innocent expression. Now, she had a cold expression, like she’s strategizing behind the scenes... While Brad revealed his true colors under pressure, she seamlessly switched between these three states. How strong must her mental fortitude be?”

Just then, Emma said. “Levi, it’s getting late. Go eat first, I’ll take care of things here.”

Levi said, “Um... Alright. Please wait for me for a while, Mrs. Hall. I’ll be right back.”

“Okay,” Emma said.

After Levi left, Emma called Vere.

Vere reported, “Not only did I cause their company’s system to collapse this time, but I also obtained a lot of evidence that can be used to control Brad. He will salvage the company’s market value in the next few days, so he probably has no time to bother with his brother’s “Well done,” Emma said.

Her expression and tone were very calm, as if Vere’s success was already within her expectations.

At the other end of the line, Vere was silent for two seconds before continuing, “it’s all thanks to your precise guidance...

Otherwise, with the Halls Group’s top–notch domestic corporate security systems, it would be very difficult for me to hack in,”

“No problem.” Emma said. “You’ll get used to it after doing it lots of times. The first mission is a success. Go collect your reward from the organization.”

“Okay,” Vere said.

He was filled with excitement.

In Stox’s organization, which rooted out traitors and punished evildoers, many talented individuals kept appearing The people who worked together in the organization were all top experts in the world.

Geniuses like Vere took pride in joining Stox.

The previous scholarship could only cover his tuition fees abroad in the coming years. Now that he worked for Emma, he would not have to worry about living expenses anymore.

Levi finished eating. Emma did not want to eat anything initially. She just wanted to keep watch over Liam.

However, Levi kept persuading Emma to eat. Annoyed, she had no choice but to go downstairs and walk around to deal with Levi’s insistence.

As soon as she returned, she saw Levi pacing anxiously in the corridor.

“What happened?” Emma asked, frowning.

Levi was flustered. “Mrs. Hall, the doctor said Mr. Hall is missing!” he said.

“Missing?” Emma said.

Her expression changed drastically.

3M Chapter 65 She thought. “How could a living person who is fine just disappear?”

An intense sense of foreboding spread in Emma’s heart.

Levi said, “I’m contacting the hospital’s security control center to retrieve all the surveillance footage..

“It’s too late!” Emma said as she gritted her teeth. “Since the other party dared to make a move, they must have made thorough preparations. Levi, come with me now!”
