"Beryl, just put the puppy down." Emily didn't think she would have to tell Beryl twice to put the puppy down, "Did you hear me?" she asked again.
"Mommy, the bad guys are coming!" Beryl jogged to her, and put the puppy down. The puppy scurried away instantly.
Emily looked up and saw the man nearing them. She froze in place. What was Jack doing here?
"Miss Lu, What a coincidence!" Jack looked at her and Beryl with a gentle smile plastered on his face.
Emily's heart was beating rapidly as she tried to hide Beryl behind her. Then she suddenly felt conscious as if Jack would notice that she was purposely hiding her daughter so she remained in place, "Oh, such a coincidence."
She knew that her secrets would be divulged one day but she didn't expect that that day would come so soon. Like now. She should have prepared herself before she flew back to this country.
Jack just wanted to clear things out but Emily seemed to have forgotten, "She looks just like you, is she your daughter?"
Beryl piped in, "Mommy, he told he was my dad just now."
"..."
Emily clenched her fists but her face was calm, "He's not your father. Jack, this is the last time you're going to talk to my daughter and this is the last time you're going to play such a cruel joke on anyone."
"Miss Lu, listen to me, I can explain."
"Beryl, go wash your hands and don't touch the puppy anymore." Emily said completely ignoring Jack as she pulled Beryl inside.
Jack stepped forward and blocked Emily from leaving, "Miss Lu, whether or not you remember the past and whether or not you are Cloris or Emily or whoever you are, I just want you to know that Beryl is my daughter."
"I don't know why you left in the first place but now that you're back, I'm not letting you go," Jack added.
Unsurprisingly, the thing that Emily feared the most had already happened.
Since it looked like Jack really believed that she had lost her memory, she just kept up her pretenses, "Sorry
lry and Cloris. And he found exactly what he was looking for.
Lu family, Country D... Four years ago, Emily was kidnapped by a doctor whose name was Lu. And then the plane that Emily was supposed to be on crashed.
What if Emily wasn't there when the plane crashed? What if all the evidence of Emily's death was deliberately falsified by Sean? Four years ago, they all turned a blind eye against Sean and his mysterious family.
If he was just a doctor then he couldn't have done all of this. But if this Lu family from Country D was involved with Sean then everything would suddenly make sense.
The Lu family was a strong and powerful force in Country D. They ran a jewelry business as their front but behind the scenes, they were just laundering money. Even Jacob didn't know how powerful they really were.
But as long as it had something to do with Emily, he would stop at nothing to get to the bottom of this.
Knock knock! It was Jennifer - she walked in and said, "Jacob."
Jacob raised his head and he had a cold look on his face, "We're in the office, please call me Mr. Gu."
Jennifer turned sour but she still obeyed, "Yes, Mr. Gu."
"What's up?"
"I was asked to bring you something."
"Put it here." Jacob tapped on the table nonchalantly then he looked at Jennifer coldly, "What else?"
