When Emmett arrived, he saw Marina waiting at the door.
Perhaps he hated her so much, so when he saw her, he couldn't help but frown.
"Why are you waiting here? You can go in and wait in the room."
Marina wore a short skirt today. It was tangerine and it contrasted with her fair skin.
She had put on makeup, especially around her eyes.
However, Emmett didn't care about that.
He cared the most about Elaine.
Marina smiled charmingly. "It doesn't matter. It will be so boring to wait inside alone. Besides, I've just
arrived and wanted to go in with you so we can look intimate!"
Emmett narrowed his eyes and glanced away emotionlessly.
How scheming Marina was! She secretly called the media and it seemed that she wanted to spread the
matter of them eating together.
But Emmett wouldn't give it a shit!
Let it be!
Just now, Emmett saw a flash of light from the bushes. Maybe the media were taking photos there.
"We're about to separate and will be strangers soon. What's it for?"
Emmett said coldly and then walked past Marina into the restaurant.
Marina's smile froze, then she blinked her eyes and followed up.
She trotted along to catch up.
Looking at Emmett, she said, "Emmett, we have been here before, do you remember? At that time, I
was popular and all kinds of newspaper wanted to have us in their report. They even followed us when
we had lunch and we had one here."
Emmett suddenly stopped.
Yes, he remembered it. However, what he remembered was that Elaine, instead of Marina, had had
lunch here.
At that time, Elaine was barefoot and was having fun here.
Back then, he saw a young man flirting with her, and he got angry.
What a sweet memory!
A faint smile flashed on Emmett's handsome face.
***
Marina's heart skipped a beat when she saw Emmett's expression.
Emmett raised his eyebrows and kept walking forward with that warm memory, and he could not speed
up no matter what.
He had memories of Elaine here.
Emmett walked slowly. His mind was full of the memories of his past with Elaine. Taking advantage of
this, Marina walked side by side with Emmett, and such an intimate scene was seen by Elaine.
Emmett walked into the room with a cold face. Marina went in with him and sat down.
Just as the waiter was about to serve them water, Marina grabbed Emmett's cup.
She said with a smile, "It's not clean. I'll clean it first."
As she said that, she took the tableware to the desk by the door and cleaned it personally with hot
water.
Emmett pursed his lips and stared coldly at Marina.
Marina had been smiling elegantly when cleaning.
After cleaning, Marina took out a small paper bag. She threw it into Emmett's cup, and quickly poured
water in it.
The paper bag disappeared when the water was poured in. And it just looked like a cup of green tea.
The fragrance was filled with the cup.
"There you go."
Marina placed the cup in front of Emmett.
Then, she cleaned her cup in the same way.
It was common for many people who ate in restaurants to clean the tableware.
Marina poured herself some water and sat down nobly. She took a few sips of tea. Then she raised her
eyelids and looked straight at Emmett.
She asked, "Why don't you taste it?"
"Okay."
Emmett answered. Then he picked up the cup and took a sip.
'Oh, yeah!'
Marina cheered in her heart.
She succeeded again!
After Emmett took the last dose of medicine, she would succeed completely. At that time, she would be
the only one in Emmett's heart. Elaine would no longer be a threat to her.
***
"Let's get it straight. You are a smart girl, so I don't want to waste so much time."
Emmett looked impatient.
However, Marina had been smiling. She looked very happy.
"Well, Emmett, we have got it straight. We're the closest, and we won't separate from each other
forever."
Marina smiled at Emmett and took a sip of tea.
Emmett was very disgusted with her for her expression and her attitude.
He didn't want to look at Marina who had put on a heavy makeup, so he looked out of the window.
Emmett sneered. "Don't you remember we've been using each other since the beginning? You just
helped me get rid of Juliana."
Marina interrupted, "Oh no, darling, not only to get rid of Juliana, I've also protected Elaine for you! I
have made great contributions for you!"
Emmett stared at Marina sharply. His gaze was merciless and vicious!
Marina trembled by his gaze, and her smile immediately dissipated.
They looked at each other. Emmett was so fierce, while Marina was so scared.
"Marina, don't play any tricks on me! You are not capable to do it and you will regret it! Understand?"
"Yes ... I have always understood it. Emmett, you are the boss. I don't dare to play tricks on you."
"Now that I have got rid of Julianne, we don't need to act anymore. Tomorrow, you can make an
announcement, saying that you will break off the engagement because of personality clashes."
Marina was sad.
Although Marina had known the result, when she heard the heartless words from Emmett, her heart
couldn't help skipping a beat.
'Emmett, you're so merciless!'
"Tomorrow?"
"Yes, tomorrow! We can't delay any longer. I don't want to have anything to do with you. Marina, you
should understand what I mean. Please get this task done perfectly."
Marina stared blankly at Emmett, and her heart was filled with bitterness.
'Emmett, why do you hate me so much? Why do you choose Elaine instead of me?'
***
When the dishes were served, Emmett picked up the fork and knife, lowered his head and looked at
the dishes. He did not want to look at Marina.
Marina took some deep breaths and said in a trembling voice, "Emmett, can I be your lover? I don't
want any status. I can make the announcement as you said, as long as I can be your lover..."
"Can you stop talking about it?" Emmett raised his eyes and looked at Marina fiercely. He was angry.
"Marina, should you be so groveling?"
"I don't want any status! I am willing to be groveling. Emmett, you should know my love for you..."
"I don't know and I don't want to know!" Emmett interrupted Marina ruthlessly again. His lips rose
slightly. He looked sexy and charming.
"Ms. Clooney, I have told you more than once that I have not fallen in love with you. Please do not be
so stubborn. You can tell me your condition. For example, how much money should I pay to make up
for you?"
Emmett said calmly and kept her status to the lowest.
"Money? You want to make up for me by money?"
Marina raised her voice in disbelief.
Although she was not as wealthy as Emmett, she came from a noble family after all. She didn't need
the money at all.
Marina said sharply, "I did it not for money!"
"Okay. Great! You have spine and starch. I am very happy to hear that you did it not for money. Then it
becomes simpler. You can make the announcement tomorrow. Upon my understanding, you take this
noble task for the safety of your family!"
Emmett gritted his teeth when saying "noble".
This was not the end. After everybody knew that he and Marina had broken up peacefully and had
nothing to do with each other, he would get even with her!
'Marina, do you think I don't know what you have done?
You have hurt Elaine. Let's wait and see!'
Marina was disappointed.
He didn't give her a chance even though she tried so hard.
'Emmett, don't blame me for playing tricks on you. You forced me to do this!'
Marina took a deep breath and raised her head with a smile.
***
"Okay, but if you want me to make an announcement tomorrow, you have to promise me one thing."
Emmett snorted and said, "What is that?"
It was definitely a bad idea!
Emmett was indifferent.
Marina blinked her eyes and pretended to be innocent. "It's not a big deal. It's just a small case for
you..."
