Chapter 86

Tess eyed Emma from head to toe and said, “Got it. So you’re the waiter here.” She laughed smugly.

When Simon saw Emma, he frowned unhappily. After all, Emma had personally undermined Elsie last time, leaving him with a bad impression of her.

The chairmen of the other companies were confused. “Tess, do you know her?”

Tess snorted disdainfully. “Why would I know such a waiter? Call your manager over. I want to change

the waiter.”

Even though Emma had a bad temper, she was still professional. She said calmly, “Miss, it’s peak period now. There are no other waiters. It’s just me.”

In other words, Tess should be content and stop causing trouble.

As expected, Tess was so angry that she gritted her teeth. After holding it in for a few seconds, she said angrily, “Pour me wine.”

Emma’s expression did not change. According to seniority, she first poured wine for Simon, who was the host. Then, when she poured wine for Tess, something happened.

Tess deliberately pushed Emma’s hand and spilled the red wine. “Look. My clothes are stained.” She said sarcastically, “Do you know how to pour wine? My clothes can’t be washed. Now that they’re dirty, they can’t be worn anymore.”

Simon could see their little interaction at a glance. He wiped his mouth with a napkin and said, “Tess, I chose the restaurant. Use this card to buy whatever clothes you like. Take it as my compensation for you.”

“Really?” Tess beamed with joy. “Thank you, Simon. You treat me like my own father.”

Emma was a little unhappy. From Simon’s angle, he could very well see that Tess had deliberately

pushed her. He knew that she was married to Liam, but he still gave his credit card to Liam’s suitor to spend. She didn’t know what he was up to.

Emma was unhappy inwardly but her expression did not change at all.

“Why are you still standing here? I don’t want to see you.” Tess was used to being pampered. Even in front of others, she would not restrain her emotions.

Seeing this, Emma’s colleagues wanted to get her out of there first.

At this moment, the door of the private room opened. A fall man in a black sit webet in the first person he saw was Emma. He remembered that she had told him last night that the school wanted her to intern at this hotel for some time. He didn’t expect her to be assigned to their private room today. There were so many people in the private room that he frowned unhappily

When Liam saw Tess, he understood what this meal meant. When he heard Froma and Tess outside the door just now, he had roughly guessed what had happened in the private room.

Liam reached out and grabbed Emma’s wrist. “Let’s ”

“Stop right there,” Simon looked dissatisfied. “Did I say you can leaver”

Liam sneered, “Dad, encouraging your child to have an affair is not a smart mom With that, he looked at Tess in front of everyone. “Tess, I’m already married to Emma Let’s not waste for hother’s

war

time.”

Simon held onto the back of his chair before sitting down. He was so angry that his chest ached, iter thought that his son was acting on impulse. Even if I am married Emma, he could still get a divorce it he did not make it public, its impact could be minimized.

But Liam had announced it in front of so many people now. Everyone present knew this was a matchmaking party that Simon had set up tonight. Liam humiliated his father in public.

As expected, Liam was Liam. He was just like before, arrogant and unruly

Tess couldn’t stand being humiliated. Her expression had already become extremely ugly. Her eyes were red as the pointed at Emma, “What’s so good about her? We’re sitting here eating, she’s just a waitress, Liam, don’t be fooled by such a cunning woman. Stop before you go too far.”

When Liam heard this, he could not take it anymore. He pulled Emma even more tightly to him and took a step forward. “With her ability, she can bankrupt your family in an instant. If you don’t want to ruin your family, you’re the one who should stop”

When Liam finished, the private room fell silent for a moment. The few shareholders, and even Simon, looked at Emma with a hint of curiosity. They thought, ‘Who is she? How can the make a big family like the Curry family go bankrupt in an instant?”

Tess, who had lost control of her gmotions, wanted to attack Emma, Emma saw her actions and instinctively blocked Liam, but she was firmly protected behind Liam.

Tess did not dare to do anything, and burst into tears.

Liam turned and said sternly to Emma, “You’ve blocked a cup thrown at me, Elsie’s needles, and the discussions of the crowd. From today onward, I will stand before you for everything”

Emma’s eyes turned red. This was Liam, the man who had loved her with his life in both lifetimes.

“Okay…”

Emma let Liam lead her out of the private room. Liam was a guest. Since a guest was taking her away, the manager could not say anything.

After his legs recovered, Liam could drive himself. He didn’t bring Levi with him today.

Liam held Emma’s hand and let her sit in the passenger seat.

“Your father seems to want you to be with Tess,” Emma said.

Liam slowly started the car. “No. He doesn’t fancy someone like Tess. He probably arranged this show for you.”

Emma pursed her lips. “I see.” Simon had deliberately shown this to her to make her unhappy. Simon knew that Emma would come there for an internship, so he purposely decided to eat there.

On the other hand, Liam thought it was just a family party between the father and son, so his face darkened when he arrived.

“Will your father be angry if we embarrass him?” Emma asked.

Liam looked at Emma as he drove. “So what if he’s angry?”

Emma thought so too. She had offended Liam’s stepmother and his younger brother. It did not matter if there was one more person.

As they spoke, Emma realized that Liam had driven to an empty river. “Hey, this doesn’t seem to be the way to Icovine Estate. Where are you taking me?”

The world outside the car gradually became remote. Even the lights were not as bright as in the city.

Liam’s well–defined face looked even more unfathomable in the silent night. “Take a guess.”

Finally, the car stopped at an empty pier.

Emma opened the window, and fresh air rushed in. There was a full moon in the sky above the river, and the atmosphere was just right.

Not long after Emma closed her eyes to enjoy the fresh air, she felt Liam’s body towering over her. He pressed a button that closed the windows.

“Why did you close the window?” Emma opened her eyes and looked at Liam suspiciously.

Liam’s smile deepened, and his voice was hoarse. “Don’t tell me you want others to see…”
