Chapter 68
Second Chances Protecting Mrs. Hall
Chapter 68 After Liamâs trusted members of Team Thunder each went off to carry out their tasks, only one person stayed behind.
âI want to send you to investigate something.â Liam said.
âMr. Hall please give your orders.â
After careful consideration, Liam said, âEmma has been talking in her sleep, saying strange things.â
The words that Emma said in her sleep came to Liamâs mind. âElijah, you killed Liamt Iâm going to kill you! Liam, hurry up and leave... Liam, donât save me...â
These words were said unconsciously by Emma, leaving Liam very puzzled.
He was afraid that she still had some other painful experiences that he was unaware of.
âHelp me find out what exactly Emma went through in the past,â Liam said. âAlso, find out what exactly that guy called Elijah was involved with me in the past.â
âGot it, Mr. Hall After his subordinate left, Liam sat alone in the study, deep in thought.
âIf it happened just once, maybe Iâd think she was having a nightmare, he thought. âBut it happens multiple times, again and again. I have to suspect if thereâs something very important that Iâve overlooked When Emma woke up the next day, she was sticky all over. Even though she and Llam had yet to reach the stage where they got physical, this was already the second time they had been so intimate.
She was in the bathtub, applying a face mask and taking a bath, while learning about the latest developments regarding Elsie from Josiah.
âMiss Wilson, you werenât harsh enough the other day,â Josiah said. âHer mouth is almost healed now, and sheâs about to hold a charity auction for the wealthy ladies of Troin City.â
âAn auction?â Emma asked.
Josiah replied, âYeah.â
âLiam has kept your whereabouts hidden from the outside,â Josiah continued. âThe fire department and the police are investigating the explosion, and they are already suspecting Elsie. Elsie doesnât know you two have woken up. She thinks youâre both dead.â
Emma leaned back against the bathtub, holding her phone, and closed her eyes to rest.
âThis woman is really indifferent until sheâs caught redâhanded,â Josiah said. âThe police have already suspected her, but sheâs still hosting parties as if nothing has happened. Miss Wilson, is there anything we need to do next?â
âSheâs so eager to get into deep shit,â Emma said. âItâs not my style if I donât give her a ride!â
Emma smiled before adding coldly, âSend me the list of all the guests and the program for the day of the charity auction. Iâll make sure she never forgets that day for the rest of her life.â
Elsieâs charity auction was three days away.
1/4 Chapter 68 There had been no news of Emma and Liam for a week, and Leviâs fate was uncertain.
The possibility of escaping from such an explosion and surviving was almost zero, especially considering that Liam had just been in a car accident.
So, even if their bodies were not found, Elsie firmly believed that the two of them were dead.
Overjoyed, she immediately held Starry Night Charity Auction, which was the grandest event every year among the circle of wealthy ladies in Troln City Other than some wealthy women, topâtier celebrities in the entertainment Industry and socialites would also attend the event that night.
It would be a starâstudded event.
The person who was in the position to host this event was a symbol of peak power.
Elsie wore a luxurious haute couture Chapane gown that day.
The moment she appeared, she attracted everyoneâs attention.
âShe truly lives up to the reputation as the mistress of the Hall family. I heard that Chapane gowns are as difficult to order as gowns by Youthâ
âI wonât be able to order a Youth gown in my life, but if I can get sponsorship from Chapane for the red carpet event next year. I can wake up laughing even in my dreams,â another female celebrity said.
âEh?â another female celebrity said. âWasnât it said that Mr. Rivera has recently signed a contract to endorse Chapane?â She looked around and continued, âIs Mr. Rivera coming today? If he is, letâs talk to him and see if he can give us two spots.â
As the two female celebrities chatted, the auction began on the other side.
Every year, Starry Night Charity Auction was the center of attention for people from all walks of life.
Everyone who attended went all out, not only in dressing their best but also in donating items, each more expensive than the last.
The one who took the lead was undoubtedly Elsic, who was the focus of the evening.
âLetâs invite tonightâs starry goddess, Mrs. Hall, to give the opening speech!â
Elsie walked up the steps, her voluminous golden silk gown instantly making a grand entrance.
With a 45âfootâlong train, it was luxury at its finest.
She smiled smugly.
At the thought that she had already gotten rid of Liam and Emma, she smiled even more joyfully.
âMrs. Hall is spirited tonight. Sheâs in such a good state.â
âThatâs right. Previously, there were rumors that she was suppressed by the disabled eldest son of the Hall family... Now, it seems that the rumors are all false.â
âThat Liam is now a cripple,â a wealthy lady said. âRight now, the entire Hall family belongs to Elsie and Brad.â
âElsie can afford to wear this outfit. This goes to show how powerful she is. In the future, we have to side with her and not waste effort on that Chapter 68 cripple.â
Elsie stood under the spotlight, feeling more and more happy.
âLet us give thanks and appreciation for this wonderful evening!â she said.
âClap!â
The applause was thunderous.
The emcee also clapped vigorously.
âMrs. Hall is the first person in our country to wear a gown that was exclusively customâmade by Chapanel Tonightâs Starry Night Charity Gala will surely be a success!â
le stage.
Just then, a clear voice of someone talking indifferently could be heard coming from below the âExclusively customâmade by Chapane?â
Amidst the guestsâ expressions of good wishes, there was suddenly a strange noise, causing everyone to involuntarily turn and look at him.
In the crowd, a man was seen with his long legs crossed. He was dressed in a luxurious highâend white suit, and his handsome face was adorned with black sunglasses. His nose bridge was high.
He got up and pointed at the woman on the stage.
âHer gown is a fake,â he said.
Right after he said that, the entire place was in an uproar.
Everyone looked at Elsie in shock, thinking. A fake? No way!â
Elsieâs expression gradually became strange. âWho are you?â she said. âMy gown is genuine, and it was airâshipped from Antgem. What evidence do you have to say that my gown is fake?â
Even though she managed to maintain her composure, the fluster on her face could not be hidden.
Sean smiled as he took off his sunglasses.
During the instant he revealed his face, everyone widened their eyes, Initially, he disdained attending an event organized by Elsie.
ly come to sabotage Elsieâs event.
But today, he was entrusted by Emma to specifically Sean devised a strategy to achieve his goal of sabotaging Elsieâs event. He enunciated each word as he said, âI am the sole global. spokesperson for Chapane. If what I say is false, then are you saying yours is true? Chapane has been affected by the economy and hasnât sold any clothes at all for nearly half a year. The first order they received was for my niece. Where did you buy this dress youâre wearing?â
No one present had ever seen authentic Chapane clothes.
Initially, even if Elsie insisted that it was authentic, no one would doubt her words.
But unfortunately, Sean was currently the spokesperson for Chapane.
08:37 Tue, 9 Jul Chapter 68 His words represented authority.
Being exposed for wearing a counterfeit gown in such a situation was undoubtedly extremely embarrassing.
Elsieâs expression alternated between anger and awkwardness.
She struggled desperately, saying, âMere words are not sufficient prool. You are just a spokesperson. Can you speak on behalf of the entire Chapane brand?â
Sean was already prepared.
He immediately produced a preâprepared video of Chapane directorâs personal clarification and projected it onto the large screen of the entire charity gala.
