Marina stood up in excitement and smiled gently. She did not expect Emmett to step forward and hold
her in his arms.
He came with a sweet fragrance. Marina was so excited that she almost fainted.
Emmett was rarely so passionate and Marina was not used it.
"Emmett...."
"Why didn't you call me? Are you okay?"
Emmett murmured affectionately and left Juliana high and dry. Juliana was very angry, her face
darkening.
"Emmett! Why do you like Marina that much? That's really gross. You're exasperating!" shouted Juliana
inwardly.
Atwood coughed loudly twice and said, "Emmett, Juliana is also here. Didn't you see her?"
Only then did Emmett pretend to be surprised and let go of Marina.
He looked at Juliana and said, "Oh, Miss Juliana is here too! I didn't see her just now."
Juliana's face darkened even more.
How could it be true?
So, Emmett only had eyes for Marina?
"Emmett, I'm playing chess with Ms. Clooney. Don't think of me as a real dragon. I'm kind and gentle to
Marina."
Her words were barbed.
Atwood chuckled, "Juliana, it's your fault."
Everyone was shocked, especially Juliana. She didn't expect Atwood to say that since he had always
been on her side.
Only Emmett put on a cold smile. He knew his father too well.
As expected, Atwood continued, "Juliana, Ms. Clooney is the guest. As Emmett's future wife, you
should greet Ms. Clooney. Why didn't you ask the servants to serve her some tea?"
(⊙o⊙) Marina froze there.
Julianne reacted with a bright smile.
Emmett held Marina and looked up at the sky, waiting quietly for Atwood's next words.
They kept talking nonsense in the garden. It was a little awkward.
...
Of course, Marina felt the most embarrassed.
So, Atwood thought he, Juliana, and Emmett were a family.
He had considered Juliana as his daughter-in-law.
Noticing Atwood spoke up for her, Julianne was very proud.
Holding Marina's hand, Emmett remained silent.
When Atwood was about to end the conversation, he suddenly said,
"It's normal for the Smiths, especially Emmett, to have a few wives, right?"
(⊙o⊙) Emmett, Juliana, and Marina were all taken aback by Atwood's words.
What did he mean?
Emmett narrowed his eyes and stared at his smiling father.
He knew Atwood was rather reckless.... He didn't expect him to make such a move! How amazing!
"Juliana, Ms. Clooney, I shouldn't interfere with your personal affairs. However, the Smith family is no
ordinary family, and I have only one son. Therefore, I attach great importance to Emmett's marriage.
Both of you are very outstanding. I think you two can try to get along well and help Emmett."
What a shock!
Both Juliana and Marina were stunned.
However, Emmett pursed his lips and didn't say anything.
Marina stole a glance at Emmett. His cold expression scared her out of her wits.
Before Marina could say anything, Julianne shouted,
"How can that be? I won't share my man with other women!"
Emmett interrupted, "Don't worry. It's not going to happen."
Atwood still smiled faintly. He really looked like a kind old man.
"Oh, Juliana, if you don't agree, I can't say anything else about it. There are no arranged marriages in
China. Emmett wants to marry Marina. I'm old and don't want to interfere in your affairs. Your choice."
...
"What...?"
Juliana frowned as she looked at Atwood.
Atwood made it very clear. He wanted Juliana to know it would be best if she agreed to share a man
with Marina. Otherwise, she would be out.
Emmett left the Smith's with Marina, his face darkening.
Marina stole a few glances at Emmett and didn't dare to say a word.
A husband two wives.... How ridiculous! How could Atwood come up with this idea?
However ...
It was a hopeful sign for Marina.
Could it be that she had the chance to marry Emmett?
At the thought of this, Marina's heart beat faster.
It might be a good thing for her to marry Emmett with Juliana.
Emmett had already had three bottles of whiskey when Lucas arrived at Y Nightclub.
"What's going on? President Smith, why are you drinking alone?"
Lucas dropped the car keys, took off his coat, and glanced sideways at Emmett, who was drinking with
his brows furrowed.
Emmett wore a light green V-neck undergarment, white slacks, and white leather shoes.
His smooth skin, coupled with his red lips and white teeth made him quite attractive.
Lucas wanted to mock Emmett and say, "Oh, you are so handsome in this light."
However, he took a closer look and noticed Emmett was annoyed. He immediately pulled his tongue
back and didn't say anything.
"You don't say a word but keep drinking. It seems that you are very unhappy."
Jasper sighed and waved his hand to let Lucas sit next to Emmett.
"Oh? What's wrong? Didn't you make out with Elaine today?"
Emmett clutched the wine glass in his hand and stared at it. He remained silent.
Jasper said in surprise, "Huh? You also know what happened today?"
...
"Nonsense! My girlfriend has been with Elaine. Because of Emmett and Elaine, Hazel kept droning on
during lunch. It was quite hard to hear. So, Emmett, you owe me big. I have suffered a lot because of
you."
Hazel had been thinking about Emmett and Elaine at noon. So, she had no interest in anything else.
Lucas wanted to make out with her a few times, but she refused.
Lucas got horny but couldn't be satisfied, which made him very depressed....
Jasper remembered something and sighed in frustration,
"Women are born to annoy men. It's just horrible! Why are there women in this world?"
(⊙_⊙)
"What? Did you hook up with a new woman?" said Lucas, his eyes widening.
"No, I didn't! I'm so unlucky. I've never been so embarrassed in my entire life...."
Lucas and Jasper started to chat, while Emmett was still drinking alone.
Emmett drank too much at once, so he felt a little dizzy. Actually, it wasn't only because of alcohol, but
also because he was thinking too hard.
He gently pressed his long fingers into his temples, his eyes slightly closed, and then exhaled slowly.
"You two are so noisy! You are even noisier than women!"
Emmett roared.
What?!! (⊙v⊙)
Lucas and Jasper were both dumbfounded.
Jasper muttered, "Let's lower our voices. Don't provoke him. He's annoyed. Don't get in the way."
Lucas curled his lips and said, "What? I can't even speak anymore. Hey, why don't you ask your dear
Elaine over? Isn't she still working here? Let her take care of this bad-tempered guy."
Jasper was astonished.
He felt ridiculous to hear "your dear Elaine" from Lucas.
"This is the only way."
Jasper sighed and nodded.
Lucas grinned, "You go! You go call Elaine over!"
...
"Why me? Why don't you go? Your girlfriend is her good friend! You go!"
"I'll drink with Emmett. You are his assistant, so you should go."
Lucas pushed Jasper.
Jasper's eyes widened in anger.
"Why am I always unlucky? I've been that humiliated during the day...."
Lucas ignored Jasper's complaint and sat down next to Emmett. He took the wine and drank it up.
Jasper could only walk out to look for Elaine.
"Excuse me, there is a person called Elaine. Where is she?"
Jasper asked a waiter.
The waiter was struggling to hold the seven bottles of wine. So, he didn't have the time to talk to
Jasper. He pouted and said,
"Oh, she is over there! The woman in shirt and trousers with a walkie-talkie in her hand!"
Then the waiter hurriedly left.
Otherwise, he would drop the big tray.
"Oh? Shirt and trousers? In Y Nightclub, the staff rarely wear trousers. Isn't that too strange?"
Jasper muttered as he walked along the corridor.
A woman in shirt and trousers stood in front with her back to Jasper. She was talking on the walkie-
talkie.
"Elaine looks like professionals. She gets it now."
Jasper smiled and walked behind her. Suddenly, he patted her shoulder and called, "Hey!"
It was so sudden and unexpected.
It gave Elaine quite a start. She jumped and then turned slowly and stiffly to Jasper.
(∞ _ ∞)
They looked at each other in embarrassment.
Jasper's eyes almost popped out of his head. His mouth opened so wide that it could even hold an
egg.
