Mom, Please Marry Daddy

Chapter 51 Strange Concern

Flushed in anger, Cassie could barely breathe. "How dare you?"

"Do you want to have a try?"

Emily grabbed Cassie's throat harder, and the air got dark immediately. Then Cassie was aware that Emily wasn't joking and that Emily was really going to kill her. At that moment, she realized what was the real fear, then she patted on Emily's hand with all her strength.

Emily relaxed her hand and asked, "What did you do to Charles?"

"Keke... I just slapped him. " Breathing hard, Cassie was not as arrogant as before.

"Well, you slapped him, then how are you going to pay me back?"

Emily reached out the other hand to stroke her cheeks and said, "Give me this face!"

As she spoke, she took out a folded dagger from her sleeve. She stole it from them when they got into the car just now. She didn't expect that the dagger would come in handy. The sharp dagger slashed at Cassie's delicate cheek.

"What are you doing?" Cassie shivered at the sight of the dagger.

"You know what? Charles cares about his face the most. I have never hit him since he was a child. How dare you hit him?"

Emily suddenly turned her wrist and made the sharp point of the dagger at Cassie's face. The dagger was now stained with blood, and a trail of blood was left on Cassie's face, which, of course, wasn't enough to disfigure her.

"Which part should we cut next?" Looking at Cassie's face up and down, Emily said in a calm tone as if Cassie was a lamb to be slaughtered in front of Emily.

Cassie was totally scared out of her wits. She had never seen such a scene before. The only thought Cassie had was that Emily was a monster in her mind now.

The kidnappers were shocked to see this scene. They had seen a lot of blood, but none of them had seen a woman as intimidating as the woman in front of them. They must not go forward. That was the conclusion they came to at this moment.

The cold dagger was pointing at Cassie's face again. With a slight smile on Emily's face, she didn't stop but looked at her. It was not until a figure appeared in front of the door that Cassie was struggling desperately as if she had found a life-saving straw.

"Brian, help me. This woman is crazy..."

That was what Brian saw when he came. The coldness and cruelty that Emily uttered was like a sharp knife that cut off anything that she couldn't bear. But it made Brian feel sorry for Emily when he saw her impassive look. He walked up to block the knife that Emily was putting down.

"What? You feel sorry for her?" Emily raised her head to look at Brian.

"It's not worth staining your hands. It makes Charles feel bad if he knows that."

Brian was telling the truth. Gazing at the dagger in her hand, Emily thought of Charles and stared at him for a few seconds.

"Do you know that Charles got hurt?" Emily's tone was so peaceful that people couldn't tell what it was, but it gave people a desolate feeling.

"Yes."

"Charles was not attracted by the system at all these days in Vincent's house. He was just recuperating, wasn't he?"

"Yes." Brian gave an affirmative answer.

"Ha ha, you are really hiding it from me."

Angrily, Emily threw the dagger on the ground and stuck in front of Brian.

"Cassie, don't let me see you again. Otherwise, it would not be as simple as just destroying your face."

Without giving a glance at Brian, Emily drove away at full speed. Brian picked up the dagger in front of him. He could see that Emily was very angry. He could guess that now the place that Emily wanted to go most was the home of Vincent.

"I have given you a chance to prepare your retreat within 24 hours, but now it seems that you don't take it to heart. It's really disappointing."

Brian said without any emotions, but his words sent shivers down to Cassie. "Brian..."

"Do you know where the person who always goes against my bottom line is now?"

Brian's face looked a little similar to that of Emily's, which scared the hell out of Cassie.

"Brian, I'm sorry. I'm sorry..." Suddenly, it dawned on Cassie that she had made a huge mistake all this time. In her eyes, Brian was a little bit like Emily, and the man in front of her might be even more ruthless than Emily.

"I never give others the second chance. Cassie, you shouldn't have done that." Brian turned to the others standing there and asked, "What did she tell you?"

These people had heard of the reputation of Brian, but they didn't know who he was. But his arrogance intimidated them. "Miss Cassie asked us to bring Miss Emily here..." one of them said. The man said in a trembling voice.

"And then?"

Brian touched the dagger in his hand casually. The silver blade reflected a cold light, so these people had to tell the truth.

"Ruin Miss Emily's reputation again..." They didn't speak out directly that Cassie wanted them to insult Emily. In fact, it had the same meaning. People who spoke didn't dare to look at Brian, so they lowered their heads to avoid eye contact with him. Brian wielded the dagger and the dagger drew a sharp arc in front of Cassie.

"Now that Miss Cassie said so, you may do as she says. I believe she will be happy to become your target."

"Brian, you can't, you can't do this to me."

"Will you let Emily go if she didn't threaten you today? You will pay for it since it's your idea. I never force anything. But if you can get out of here, I will not force you. Don't forget this lesson, Cassie."

Brian turned around and glanced at them. "I remember all of you, and you can do whatever you want. But there's no place for you in T City. You must have seen the end of the Harvey Gang. Don't challenge my limits."

Those people were stunned right away. It was Brian who defeated Harvey Gang, so they had no power to oppose him and would be kicked out of the city.

Damn it! They looked at Cassie, and thought it was all this woman's fault. They had to provoke the people they couldn't provoke, and the fierce light in their eyes could tear Cassie apart.

Brian ignored the screams from inside the room. If Cassie could get out, he wouldn't do anything except asking her not to show up in front of them. If she couldn't escape, she would be trapped in the snare she made and wouldn't let her arrangement wasted.

He was never a kind-hearted man, let alone she was just a stranger who hurt the one he cared about. But it seemed that he still needed to spend a lot of effort on Emily. Emily stared at him with such cold eyes. Brian hoped that Emily would not show that coldness to him.

The doorbell rang many times. At last, Charles came and asked, "Uncle Vincent, did you forget the key?"

As he said that and opened the door, he didn't see who was standing at the door.

"Oh, I really don't have the key to this house."

Hearing the familiar voice from the other end of the line, Charles shivered with fear. "Mommy..." he muttered. Then he covered her face quickly.

"We haven't seen each other for only two days, but you begin to dislike me. You are really heartless. I haven't seen you for two days and I miss you so much, but I can't imagine that you don't miss me and even cover your face with your hands. I'm so ashamed of it."

"Dear mommy, my love for you is endless. How can I not miss you? A mosquito bit me just now. I just put some medicine on my face, but I don't want to damage my handsome image in front of you again."

"Put down your hands." Suddenly, Emily said in a serious tone, which made Charles realize that if his plan had been exposed, he could do nothing but put down his hands.

Emily looked at his face carefully. It had been covered with a thin layer of ointment, which had no obvious marks and was just a little swollen. Such face made Emily uncomfortable. "Does it still hurt?"

Noticing the slight concern on his mother's face, he comforted, "It's not hurt for a long time. I'm good at recovery. Mommy, don't worry. It's my fault to hide it from you. Don't be angry, okay?"

"Huh! Don't you know that you shouldn't hide it from me? I think you are working well together with Mr. Brian." Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Emily was angry obviously. Charles blinked his bright eyes.

"Well, Mommy, just give Mr. Brian a chance to perform. It's not easy to be promoted to be my father, so he have to seek justice for his son. As you see, I'm quite satisfied with Mr. Brian's ability."

He wanted to explain to his mother.

Emily just knew that why Brian had done so much to the Qin family these days. But even so, it couldn't be denied that the father and son had conspired to cheat her. Thinking of the slap on Charles's face, Emily wished she could scratch Cassie's face.

"Why are you hit by Cassie?"

"Well, I was just absent-minded and wanted to see what kind of tricks she was playing. I didn't expect that she would be so crazy."

"Charles, do you remember what I told you when you came back from abroad?" He nodded and replied, "Yes."

"Charles, I don't care how you play. If you play too much, I will take responsibility for you. But you have to promise me that you won't get hurt."

"Mommy, I'm sorry." He lowered his head and hugged her.

"Charles, don't get injured again. Don't do it again. I can't stand it." She didn't know what she would do next time.

"Don't worry. I won't use extreme powers or get hurt in the future." His own injury would break Emily's heart and make her crazy, which he had known about even when he was just a few years old.

"Okay, I got it."

"It seems that the problem has been solved." While standing at the door and watching this warm scene in the living room, Brian had a different feeling as well.

"Of course. I'm the apple of Mommy's eye. How could she be angry with me? Are you jealous, Mr. Brian?"

"Yeah, I do feel a little jealous. What should I do?"

Hearing that, Charles was flustered. As a father, Charles didn't think it was suitable to say that in front of his children. He would be laughed by others if a father strived for favor with his son.
