“Oh my God! Is that a mafia boss? He looks majestic.”
“What? Hah! Have you ever seen such a young and handsome mafia boss? Haven’t you ever watched
TV? The mafia boss is always the strong looking old and ugly man.”
“Why are there so many people around him?”
“Those are his bodyguards. Please, stop being so stupid. I can see you have never seen this before
but can’t you just use your common sense?”
“The girl in his arms is so lucky! How did she get to be with such a rich and handsome man?”
Some girls who are shopping start to gossip excitedly.
But their gossip is only filled with theirm drooling over Emmett’s good looks and jealousy over Elaine’s
luck.
Elaine has long been aware of the unusual scorching gazes from her surroundings. She hurriedly
struggles to get free, not wanting to be seen in public with Emmett in such an intimate position.
However, Emmett doesn’t let her go.
“Hey! We shouldn’t be stuck together this close. Can’t you let go a bit? Just stay away a little.”
“Stay away? Why? We have already had sex. I know every bit of your body and you know every bit of
mine. We are that close; how can we keep a distance then?”
Elaine’s ears tuns bright red.
Emmett is an expert at shutting her up with his dirty words.
And she doesn’t even dare to retort to such vulgar words.
Some of Emmett’s beautiful hair are resting on half of his forehead; his eyes look as deep as an ocean,
making many girls want to drown in them.
“Come. Come on and see what kind of cellphone you like the best out of these brands. Choose the one
you want.”
Emmett brings Elaine closer to the cellphone counter, still holding her, and taps the counter glass with
his long fingers.
Elaine pouts thoughtfully, as she leans over the counter and looks down.
“Uh! I don’t know. Pick anyone, I don’t care.”
“Show us your best and most expensive cell phones, that are popular among women.”
Emmett says to the attendant behind the counter lightly; at the same time casually running his fingers
through Elaine’s hair, gathering it behind her neck.
His movements are so gentle, that it breaks the hearts of many of the girls around them.
“Sure, President Smith!”
The attendant nods and smiles at him in a flattering way.
President Smith?
Elaine is bewildered, “How does she know you?”
“Ha ha, your man is very popular, don’t you know? The center of everyone’s attention and desires.”
Emmett laughs lightly and teases Elaine; she rolls her eyes as her lips curl into a slight smile.
Emmett furtively raises his wrist to check the time, and then lowers his gaze and glances at Elaine.
He has not told her that this mall was established by Oliver and Emmett owns some of the shares here.
He occasionally comes to visit the board of directors and cut a ribbon here or there for a certain event,
which is why most of the employees know him.
However, his visit here today is not without reason.
He is here because an hour ago he received a call saying that Oliver has already been discharged from
the hospital and will be going to the mall for a meeting that he must attend.
Oliver, since you just declared war on me, how can I just sit and watch?
Emmett is playing with his phone, flipping it in his hands. Every now and then he glances at that text
message.
“Emmett, if between you and Elaine I can only choose one, then I choose Elaine. I will try my best to
win over her heart. Will you dare to compete with me?” – Oliver.
Emmett sighs. Oliver, are you really going to break off our friendship for Elaine?
Compete?
Ha ha, okay, just come! I, Emmett Smith, is not afraid of anything in this world!
He doesn’t send a reply back to Oliver; he doesn’t see Oliver as a threat that he should be afraid of.
However, the thought of Oliver kissing Elaine passionately makes his heart hurt as if someone just
stabbed it.
He must get his revenge!
Oliver! I don’t really care however you act usually, but I can’t ignore you this time… It’s my woman,
she’s mine. I really have to teach you a lesson this time.
Coming out of his thoughts, he lowers his head to look down at the girl in his arms.
Elaine looks carefully at all the cellphones on the counter and uses them a little. However, she still can’t
figure out which one she wants.
“Have you decided which one you want?”
Emmett gradually slips his hand from her shoulder down to her waist, tightening his hold.
The soft curves on her small exquisite body fit right into his hands.
Elaine shakes her head and murmurs, “These are too expensive. I don’t want such an expensive one,
just a regular one around a thousand yuan would do.”
Emmett chuckles. She always says such cute things inadvertently and makes him feel better, “Can you
not consider the price for once? How is it expensive when it’s not costing you money?”
“I have a lot of debt. I still owe you a million…”
“Did you forget? I wrote off your debt in Italy. Wait until we get back to the company, I will make you
burn that contract with your own hands.”
“But…”
“But what? You are my woman now. It’s only natural for me to spend my money on you. What makes
me feel uncomfortable is you not spending my money. Don’t forget you promised to give me three
months to move your heart.”
In the face of Emmett’s next-level eloquence, Elain is left speechless.
When did she promised him three months? That time, that promise too was a forced one under his
high-pressure policy.
Elaine wrinkles her nose and says, “But I still think these are a bit too expensive. I am just a student,
there’s no need for me to use such an expensive phone.”
“Wrong! You are not just a student; you are an extraordinary student… You are Emmett Smith’s
woman. My woman must use the best things.”
Elaine cringes.
Ugh! Please don’t keep putting Emmett Smith’s woman in every sentence, okay? She says inwardly.
“Then… I’ll take this one.”
She points to a cellphone under the counter and says.
Emmett also bends over to see, his body almost covering hers as he looks. Then he bursts out
laughing.
“This one is just nine hundred yuan. That’s too cheap! No way!”
Elaine becomes impatient, “Who is the one choosing a phone here? Me or you?”
“Okay, then let me choose. If I leave it up to you, you will just end up choosing a terrible one for
yourself. Spending money on you makes me really happy.”
The sweet words that he just blurts out makes Elaine dumbfounded.
She hopes he would stop doing this. It makes her really confused.
Emmett lowers his head and kisses her on the top of her head, then tells the attendant, “We will take
this one.”
“President Smith has a very good eye. This is the latest model that has just been released, with great
functions and excellent performance.”
Elaine sticks her tongue between her teeth and mutters, “And it’s price is also the best. Oh God, why is
a cell phone so expensive?”
It’s nearly ten thousand yuan… This makes her really distressed.
After putting in her old SIM card into the new phone, Emmett turns it on and passes it to Elaine. He
coaxed her in a child-like tone, “Here, take it. Your new toy!”
After all, she does have a child-like disposition. After getting something new she is always full of joy
and curiosity. She immediately takes it and presses the screen to play with it.
Emmett glances forward briefly and sees a familiar figure walking in.
He immediately tightens his arms around Elaine’s waist, bends over and presses his face into her
cheek, almost kissing her. He says, “Do you even know how to use it? You don’t, right? Ha ha!”
Elaine doesn’t even look up from the screen and responds unconvincingly, “Of course I know. Don’t you
dare look down on me.”
Oliver who has just walked in with four secretaries, is originally supposed to walk directly towards the
VIP elevators. However, he suddenly sees the arrogant crowd around the counter.
It is impossible to miss.
A dozen body guards are too eye-catching.
He freezes on the spot, unable to move.
Who is he seeing?
He can’t believe his eyes.
His eyes are wide in shock; his left arm, still in a sling, is trembling slightly.
Isn’t that Elaine?
His Elaine…
His heart is suddenly on fire, as if it has just been stabbed a few times.
“Mr. Young, this way please!”
Seeing him motionless, his secretary leans towards him and reminds in a low voice.
But it is as if he can’t hear anything!
He maintains his position, unmoving, looking frightened. He stares ahead with his eyes wide open,
looking somewhere with hurt expressions.
Elaine smiling in Emmett’s arms!
Smiling innocently like a happy child!
What are they looking at together? There faces are so close as if Emmett is kissing her.
Emmett’s arms are around her waist, they look more intimate that any couple out there.
Oliver’s face becomes pale.
Who can save him at this moment? Who can save his pitiful heart from the pain?
His whole body is trembling.
