દા Robert held her hand and struggled with his words for a long time before finally saying, âEmma, you might not be able to go to the banquet.â
Seeing his hesitation, Emma felt bad. âRobert, say what you want I can take it.â
Robert said, âEmma, you may not be able to go to the banquet.â
Upon hearing this, Emma was slightly startled. She thought Robert was just playing with her.
She thought all his promises to be with her forever were empty words. Otherwise, heâd bring her to meet his family. Thinking of this, she looked at Robert with a look of grievance. âRobert, you donât want to take me to see your family?â âNo, itâs not like that,â
Robert was emotional, but after saying this, he lowered his head, unable to meet her gaze.
He didnât know what to say. He couldnât just tell Emma that she wasnât allowed to attend the banquet. If so, she would be very sad.
âTake me with you, okay?â Emma held Robertâs wrist, and her tone was the coquettish tone of a younger girl.
âEmma, itâs not that I donât want to take you to the banquet tonight. Itâs that my dad-
Robert didnât finish his sentence, but Emma understood. She frowned and looked at him. âMr. Davis doesnât want me there, right?â
âIâm sorry, Emma,â Robertâs eyes were full of guilt. Emma looked at him and withdrew the hand that took him.
Robert panicked. âEmma.â
Before he finished speaking, Emma interrupted, âItâs okay. I know Iâm just an adopted daughter. Itâs normal for Mr. Davis to dislike me. So we should stop seeing each other in the future.â
âWhat are you talking about?â
âInstead of going on like this, itâs better to stop right now. Itâs good for us.â
Hearing Emma say such heartless words, Robert felt heartless. âDonât you know how well I treat you?â
âI know you treat me well, but if Mr. Davis doesnât agree, thereâs no future for us. Will you fight Mr. Davis for me?â
âI will,â Robert said with anger in his eyes, and Emma was stunned by him for a moment.
But then she restrained her expression, âIf thatâs the case, then take me with you.â
Hearing this, Robert thought for a moment before finally nodding. âOkay,â For Emma, he would do anything.
Hearing this, Emma took his hand and rested her head on his shoulder.

From the beginning, she never thought of letting go of Holden. He was her last bargaining chip. As long as she held onto him, there was still hope for her to return to the Rosewood family.
Just now, it was just a show. As long as she could successfully attend the banquet, she would have the opportunity to win the favor of the Davis family.
As long as the Davis family could recognize her, then she would have the backing of the Davis family.
When Elysia arrived at Grand Restaurant, Justin was already there. He was sitting by the window, wearing a white shirt.
Elysia walked straight over and sat down. âYouâre quite early.â
âNot really,â Justin said and handed her the menu.
Elysia ordered a few dishes at random and handed the menu back to Justin. âFeel free to order anything. My treat.â
Justin smiled and ordered without looking at the menu, already knowing what he wanted.
The waiter took the orders and left.
Elysia smiled, âYou come here a lot?â
Justin nodded. âThe food is great. So I often come here.â
âI can see why. Iâve never been here before. This place looks nice.
Justin felt a pang of sadness.
Elysia had a hard life before, so it would be rare for her to dine in such an upscale place.
She should have been held in the palm of her hand and grown up in luxury, but she had actually lived a difficult life.
If she had been living in the Rosewood residence, then the person they grew up with would be her.
They would be childhood sweethearts and have many happy memories.
âWhat are you thinking about?â
âNothing,â He looked at Elysia. Although they werenât childhood sweethearts, he was glad that they were friends now.
Meanwhile, the general manager of Grand Restaurant followed Zane with a flattering face, respectful and polite. âMr. Hartley, this way please.â
Zane nodded lightly, and when he looked up, he saw Elysia sitting by the window, and his heart jumped with joy.
But when he looked at the man sitting opposite Elysia, he couldnât help frowning.
He remembered that man who was Elysiaâs classmate. They met at the birthday party.
The manager noticed Zaneâs sudden change in demeanor and worried that he had done something wrong.
He wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and asked tremblingly, Mr. Hartley, is there something wrong?â Zane raised his hand.
âIâve got something to do. You can leave me here.â

Chapter 113 Mr. Huang breathed a sigh of relief. âIf thereâs anything I can do to help, just let me know.â
Zane didnât respond and walked over to Elysia.
413 The manager looked at Zaneâs back and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He thought someone might be in trouble. So he turned around and left.
Zane was getting closer and closer to Elysia. Justin had seen him and wondered what he was going to do.
Before he could figure it out, Zane stopped by Elysia.
âElysia.
Hearing the familiar voice, Elysia looked back. When she saw Zame standing in front of her, she was a little surprised. âWhy are you here?â
âIâm here for business and happened to see you. Are you guys having dinner?â
âYes.â
âWhat a coincidence! I havenât had dinner yet. Do you mind if I join you?â
Elysia didnât say anything. Zane looked at Justin. âDo you mind?
