Chapter 353: The Question

At the mention of the Wade family, Emma thought to herself,

1 m not stupid, why would I mess with the Wade family?

Therefore, she denied it very righteously,

“I didn’t see anyone from the Wade family. How could I have offended them?”

However, after a few consecutive calls, Emma felt a little uncertain. She had a feeling that things were going to develop in an unpredictable direction.

So, when she received a call from her mother again, asking her to tell her what happened at the party that night, Emma finally couldn’t stand it anymore. She was agitated and a little flustered, but she still refused to admit it. Instead, she threw a tantrum at Mrs. Watson.

“I’ve told you so many times that they’re the ones bullying me. Don’t you and Father believe me? If that’s the case, then I’ll just pretend that nothing happened that night. Anyway, nothing happened to me. I’m just being bullied a little, and I won’t die!”

In the past, after hearing her daughter say this, Mrs. Watson might have compromised and stopped asking, but it was clear that they couldn’t let her fool around with the current situation.

Mrs. Watson avoided her husband’s gaze, turned around, and asked in a low but stern voice,

“I’ll only ask you one question. Do you take drugs or not?”

Emma’s heart skipped a beat. She didn’t tell her parents about the drug at all, but her mother knew about it, which meant that someone had leaked it to them.

This had gone beyond Emma’s original plan. In a panic, she could only push all the blame to Serena and David.

“It’s something that Serena and David brought. It’s a few candies. Someone might have accidentally eaten them at the banquet.”

When Mrs. Watson heard her daughter’s flustered tone and the fact that Emma had mentioned the candy, she was certain that Emma wasn’t innocent in this matter. Because Serena and David were her followers, they couldn’t have taken out the candy without her permission.

Mrs. Watson shut her eyes tightly to hide her disappointment. She continued to ask,

“Then, who came up with the idea to frame the Le family?”

Emma still pushed the blame onto Serena and David. She cried out,

“They were the ones who started it and they were the ones who carried it out. I don’t know how things turned out like this.”

“Then why did Serena and the others attack the Le family?”

Emma made up a story.

“Maybe they had a dispute? I don’t know.”

“Today is only the second day that the Le family has arrived in Wade town. This is their first time meeting each other. What kind of big conflict could they have that would cause them to use drugs to frame them?”

Emma grabbed her hair and spun around on the bed.

“Maybe Serena is interested in Le Wan’s boyfriend. After all, he’s a handsome young man who can easily win the hearts of girls. As you know, Serena’s appearance is not outstanding. If she wants to achieve her goal, she will definitely have to use some special means.”

Mrs. Watson came to a conclusion after hearing that.

“So, you’re interested in Le Wan’s boyfriend and want to lay your hands on him?”

“I didn’t!” Emma shrieked and denied, “I won’t fall for such a man. He’s arrogant, unromantic, and hard like a stone. So what if he’s good-looking? He’s still a very annoying person.”

Especially after Zhai Jing was unmoved by her seduction and even watched Le Wan lay her hands on her, the throbbing in Emma’s heart had completely turned into hatred.

Mrs. Watson took a deep breath. “Alright, I’m clear about what happened.”

She warned Emma sternly,

“You know very well what happened tonight, but because you’re our daughter, we cant allow your reputation to be damaged. So, your father and I will find a way to settle this matter, but this doesn’t mean that you can get through this safely.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about… Emma immediately protested. “No, you understand.” Mrs. Watson interrupted her,

“The Le family isn’t a place you can bully as you please. It’s not easy to settle this matter. Your father and I are still troubled by it. Before that, I hope you can settle down and not do anything unnecessary.”

She paused for a moment.

“If you don’t want to be found out about the drowning incident three years ago, you’d better stay in the villa and not go anywhere. I’ll arrange for someone to take you home as soon as possible.”

Emma was about to refute but when the incident of three years ago was brought up, she suddenly became speechless and didn’t dare to say another word..
