The next morning, Emily woke up in high spirits. Due to her good night's sleep, she even enjoyed her breakfast more than usual.
When Ariah saw that Emily had a good appetite, she smiled, "What do you plan to do next?"
However, Emily took a sip of soy milk and then frowned. "To tell you the truth, I don't know. Lennon is a scary person, and I've been afraid of him since young. I think he's very powerful and resourceful that there's nothing that he couldn't do..."
Quietly, Ariah listened.
"Besides, this time, he wants to take me back to be his wife, and I don't know what to do." Distressed, Emily pouted, "For now, your place is the only safe place, and I'm sure that he must have sent his men to search other places."
"Do you want to call your brother for help?"
"My brother?" With a snort, Emily continued, "He's on Lennon's side, so he definitely won't help me. In fact, he's already doing me a favor by not helping Lennon to kidnap me back home."
Then, Ariah laughed, "He's still your brother after all."
Meanwhile, Emily pursed her lips.
"He was indeed worried about you. Back then, when you were kidnapped from the hospital, he was extremely anxious that he even barged into the Pooler Family in the middle of the night just to look for you." Slowly, Ariah told Emily what happened in the past few days, "After all, you're his sister, so of course, he would care about you."
With a glance, Emily asked, "Is he really worried about me?"
"Of course."
"Okay... I'll call him later and tell him that I'm safe now."
"That would be the best."
After breakfast, Emily gave Eric a call. Just as Ariah finished cleaning up the cutleries, Jimmy returned.
The moment Jimmy saw Emily seated in the living room, he asked with a look of disgust, "Why are you still here?"
The night before, Jimmy was driven back by Ariah because of Emily, and the reason was that if Jimmy were to stay for the night, it would be inconvenient for Emily.
Therefore, Jimmy wasn't hoping to see Emily here at all.
After Emily was done calling Eric, she turned to answer Jimmy, "I would still be staying here for the next few days. So, will you despise me even more?"
However, Jimmy curled his lips and said, "No, I won't, and you can stay as long as you want."
Not only Emily but even Ariah was also shocked. When did Jimmy become so generous?
"You're not chasing me away?" Suspicious, Emily asked again.
"Why should I chase you away? You can stay in this house for as long as you want since Ariah will be moving into my place tonight." After Jimmy finished, he brought Ariah into the bedroom. "Go change your clothes. We are heading to the Civil Affairs Bureau."
For a moment, Ariah was stunned. "Why are we going to the Civil Affairs Bureau?"
"To restore our marriage."
"Wow!" Excitedly, Emily jumped from the couch. "Are you guys really going to get married again?"
Immediately, Jimmy pushed Ariah into the bedroom and closed the door as he raised his eyebrows and looked at Emily, "Why, are you against it?"
"Oh, what's there to object to? I'm just really happy for you guys."
Indeed, Emily was really happy because she could see that Ariah loved Jimmy. Now that they were about to form marital ties, Emily was happy for them.
It was then that Jimmy's expression took a turn for the better, "Well, I guess my effort of saving you was not in vain."
As Emily thought about how they tried to look for her, she quickly said, "Oh, right. I haven't had a chance to thank you. Thank you for helping me."
Leaned against the wall, Jimmy raised his eyebrows slightly. All this time, Jimmy had always thought that Emily was a spoiled princess, but he didn't expect that she was not so annoying after all.
"I didn't prepare any wedding gifts for you guys, and I don't think I can prepare one right now." Embarrassed, Emily spread out her hands and said, "When I get some money, then I'll buy you gifts."
However, Jimmy suddenly asked, "Since you're already engaged to another man, why were you did you date Kobi?"
