Emmett hugged her tightly and said in a deep voice, "I thought about marrying you, but I don't make
promise that I can't keep. I won't deceive you with sweet words. At that time, I couldn't give you any
promise. The situation was very complicated, so I couldn't marry you. But now, there's no barrier
between us. No one can stop me from marrying you. I will propose to you right now. Moreover, Elaine, I
don't want you to misunderstand that I'm flirting with you or regarding you as my mistress. It's not like
that. I'm serious. I'm very serious about my affection for you. It's all my fault that I've never told you that
I love you. If Oliver didn't say that women need real promises, I wouldn't realize what's wrong between
us. I love you so much and I only love you. I want to spend my rest of life with you, but you didn't know
it. Now that you understand, will you marry me? "
Elaine was moved and surprised.
Yes, her heart knot was always his attitude towards her.
She didn't know what she meant to Emmett.
Was she a lover, or a toy? She didn't know. She was confused.
Hearing Emmett's sincere confession, Elaine could finally open her heart. She was so happy as if she
were walking on air.
Emmett waited for her answer with a smile.
Elaine was shocked for a while and then she came to her senses. She punched Emmett in the chest
and complained, "You are so bad! Why didn't you say earlier that you want to marry me? You're so
annoying!"
In their relationship, she always indulged in self-pity and she couldn't get a sense of security.
Emmett laughed as he hugged Elaine and kissed her on the neck.
...
Elaine hugged Emmett's neck and started sobbing.
"What's wrong? Why are you crying? What makes you upset? Tell me!" Emmett held Elaine's face and
gently wiped the tears off her face with his big hand.
"Don't cry, baby. You look ugly now."
"Don't say I'm ugly. Don't say that!"
"Alright, you are beautiful. Tell me, why are you crying?"
"I am touched. I always think that you are flirting with me and I'm just your mistress. I thought you
would not be with me for long. Sometimes I even laughed at myself for being a mistress. Bad-bear
Smith, you're so bad. Why are you so outstanding? Why am I attracted to you? Why didn't you tell me
earlier so that I wouldn't be sad for such a long time? I order you to wash my underwear for the rest of
life!"
"OK, I'll wash all your clothes. And I will 'wash' you too."
Emmett kissed Elaine's red lips and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry for making you unhappy. I should
have told you earlier. Actually, I wanted to spend my life with you long before."
"Did Oliver tell you that I'm angry not because I don't love you, but because I'm very confused?"
"Yes, it's Oliver. He has a lot of experience in this field. I admire him very much."
"Then, I have to thank him some other day."
"Why do you thank him? From this matter, you can see how pure I am. I did never date with any
woman before, so I don't understand what a woman is thinking. But you can tell Oliver has dated so
many women, so he knows women's thoughts well. The conclusion is you can't get close to Oliver. He
is a playboy."
Elaine pursed her lips.
'Bad-bear Smith, you are really cunning. You even spoke ill of Oliver although he has helped you, let
alone others.'
When Sophia brought in the deliveryman of the restaurant, she was so shocked that she almost fell on
the carpet.
What happened?
Emmett was laughing gently and sitting in the chair with Elaine in his arms?
Elaine was pinching Emmett's ear?
Goodness, Sophia was going to collapse!
The kindest and most harmless girl could bully the fiercest and most vicious man?
Her world was turned upside down!
...
When Sophia brought the deliveryman into the president's office, Elaine was sitting on Emmett's lap to
play computer games with him. And Elaine tugged at Emmett's ears with a smile, saying that he was
bad at games.
"You're so stupid. You look pretty smart. Why are you so stupid with the game? I'm better at it than you.
You've lost a lot of my points!"
Elaine was not good at so many things. But she did well in games. She even concentrated more on
games than listening to the teacher in class.
She even didn't know that Sophia had come in.
She moved her bum in displeasure and mumbled on Emmett's legs. And she clicked the mouse quickly
when she fixed her eyes on the computer screen.
When Sophia stepped in the office, she was in an elegant smile, but after she looked up and saw what
happened inside, she staggered and almost fell over. If she really fell to the ground, she would be very
embarrassed.
"Mr. Smith, here's the meal ... this..."
Sophia couldn't stop peeking at them. This was rare. She thought with excitement that they made a
perfect couple.
"Put it on the coffee table over there."
Emmett looked up with a faint smile.
He was smiling!
Sophia rubbed her eyes. She couldn't believe that the most cold-blooded president of the Tianyi Group
would smile! And he was still smiling!
It was so scary!
Sophia trembled as she led the deliveryman to the low table beside the sofa and asked him to put the
delicate dishes on it.
Sophia glanced at them secretly and hurried to leave.
As soon as she left the room, she raised her head as if she won a big prize. She said in the secretary's
office loudly, "Everyone, big news. Do you want to hear it?"
Everyone looked up at Sophia with curiosity.
"What news?"
"Is it about Mr. Smith?"
"Is it a gossip?"
Other employees in the company thought that these senior secretaries didn't care about other things
except work. No one expected that they also liked to gossip.
...
Sophia looked around and smiled, "Guess what I saw when I entered the president's office."
Everyone was excited, and they got goose bumps.
It was about Emmett!
"What did you see?"
"Was Mr. Smith teasing Elaine?"
"Was Mr. Smith losing his temper?"
Sophia shook her finger, "No."
"You would be definitely shocked if you saw that! When I went in to deliver the food, I saw that Elaine
was sitting on Mr. Smith's lap. They were so intimate. Elaine was just playing games, and she pulled
Mr. Smith's ear like a spoiled child!"
At this point, all the secretaries gasped!
Someone could actually sit on Emmett's lap and pull his ear?
Goodness, this was so astonishing.
"Furthermore, Mr. Smith was happy about that. He kept smiling."
Everyone gasped again.
Emmett was smiling? They never saw that...
"Sophia, does that mean Elaine will be our president's wife?"
"Does he really keep Elaine?"
Sophia's face darkened and she sighed, "But to be honest, I still feel sorry for Elaine. After all, Mr.
Smith can't marry her at will. Elaine can't be accepted by the Smiths. So, she could only stay with Mr.
Smith in secret, and she would not marry into his family. Oh, poor girl. She's really a pure girl."
All the secretaries were shocked and nodded in silence.
They all knew that Elaine had a good temper. She was an optimistic girl who was always in a smile.
"What are you doing? The company pays you high salary, but you are gossiping in work hours. Do you
want to be fired?"
...
Jasper heard what they were talking, so he scared the secretaries in a gloomy face.
Sophia was scared.
Sophia was so frightened that her eyes widened. She quickly sneaked back to her seat and
concentrated on her work.
All the other secretaries lowered their heads and pretended to be busy.
The entire secretary room fell into silence.
Jasper glared at them and left with leisure. After Elaine married to Emmett, these idiots would definitely
be shocked.
Of course, many people in wealthy family didn't marry for love.
However, that probably had nothing to do with Emmett. Emmett was powerful and independent, so
nobody could control him.
Elaine sniffed as she played games. "What smells so nice?"
Emmett chuckled. She ignored him when playing games, but she was sensitive to the smell of food.
She was indeed a foodie.
"It's our meal. Let's have it. I prepared your favorite dishes."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'm starving!"
Elaine jumped off Emmett's leg and ran towards the short table. Emmett stood up lazily and walked
behind Elaine. He held her hand and said, "Wash your hands first."
