"Yes, it has been a long time, you have grown up to such a big boy."
"After so many years, it's time for me to grow up."
"You're right. When I last saw you, you were a child of around 11 years old. I didn't expect you to
become an outstanding adult now."
Walter smiled and said nothing. After a long while, he said: "how are you?"
"Haven't you seen it? It's great now." Said Emily in a casual way, shrugging her shoulders.
"As long as you are happy." In this way, the Xia clan wouldn't relieve their evils.
"Walter, you're so young. It's easy to become old if you think too much, but I don't want to see a youth
who is tortured by the underworld." Although Emily said it lightly, it caused a great disturbance in
Walter's heart.
"Don't you hate them?"
"What do I hate? The Xia clan, Star, Michael or anyone else, including you?"
Walter was stunned, looking disappointed.
With a slight smile on his face, Emily said, "Walter, how can I not hate them for what they said to me
seven years ago? I have to endure the pain of losing my parents as time goes by."
"But I've already taken my revenge. Do I really have to make the Xia clan lose a few lives as a real
revenge? Although I don't mind these people's lives, I know that my parents don't want to see this
happen."
"Uncle Tristan and aunt are both gentle people. They won't want to see you like this." Walter chimed in.
"So that's all for today. Besides, you have nothing to do with all these revenges. I can tell the difference
between good and bad. Don't you have too much responsibility, Walter?"
Walter was stunned for a while and then replied, "well, you have known it."
"Well, the Xia Company has received financial support from the external capital in the past few years.
The Xia Company under the control of Michael has become weaker than ever before. If it weren't for
the regular cooperation abroad, the Xia Company would have been ruined many years ago. I just didn't
expect that you would be able to help the Xia Company from abroad at such a young age."
"I have persuaded Grandpa, but he didn't listen to me. My father always listens to Grandpa, and even
so, I don't want to see the Xia Company decline. That's where Uncle and aunt are protected, and it's
your property, but what I did can just help a little. It has already formed a big trend to decrease."
"Walter, don't deny what you have done. Indeed, you have helped the Xia Company. It's not easy for
you to reach this level at your age, and it's worthy to be gratified."
"It's all in the past. Now that the Xia Company is back to you, uncle Tristan may rest in heaven with
peace."
Walter still remembered the scene that Tristan held him in his arms. He didn't expect his gentle uncle
would leave in such a way, and he didn't expect that all the flames of anger were caused by the
jealousy of his half blooded sister.
Because of jealousy, they destroyed the lives of Emily, Tristan and the Xia clan. Now everything was
fine, but the wound in the heart of Emily should never be healed.
"I haven't taken over the Xia Company yet."
Walter was taken aback. "What do you mean?"
"Very simple. How about handing over the Xia Company to you?"
This time, Walter was completely shocked. "Why?"
"As for the reason, I don't want to be bothered. Now that Michael has made a lot of trouble for the Xia
Company, it will take too much effort to clean it up. Now that it was caused by Michael, of course your
father, my uncle, Charlie, also has some responsibility. So, Walter, don't you think you should take this
responsibility?"
At the same time, Walter also felt that there was something wrong, but he didn't know what it was.
"What? You don't accept it?" Said Emily with a slight smile.
"No, it's not that I don't accept it. But how can you trust me to have it with me? I'm still a student."
"Education is not a problem. Since you have worked hard for the Xia Company in the past few years,
you are capable in working. As for whether you graduated or not, I believe you can make an
arrangement. In fact, I believe you can do that because I believe that among the Xia clan's members, I
believe that the Xia Company can recover in your hand."
It was impossible for him not to be excited. For the sake of Emily's trust in him, he had no reason to
refuse it. "Emily, I can take over the Xia Company now, but when the Xia Company recovers, it still
belongs to you."
But Emily didn't reply. At that moment, the office door was opened and Charlie was shocked too.
"Are you really going to hand over the Xia Company to Walter?"
"Uncle, you've heard it. Walter is capable of doing that, and I've always been afraid of getting in trouble.
I just can't let my parents' hard work be wasted. But if the Xia clan has a person who can support them,
I will be very happy. After all, I have the World International behind me, so I don't need to work here."
Charlie stood there without saying a word. Emily's sight passed him slightly and looked at Michael
behind him. He wasn't as arrogant as before.
"Walter, I'll hand over the Xia Company to you today, and I won't ask anything about it. But remember
one thing, Michael, my past grandfather, please don't let him interfere in the Xia Company anymore.
Otherwise, don't blame me for getting to the bottom of this matter."
Upon hearing this, Michael trembled with fear.
Walter sighed and said, "I remember that. I will take good care of my grandfather."
Upon hearing this, Emily didn't linger in the room anymore. Charles and Brian didn't know what to say
to the Xia clan, because they were just here to see how the heir of the Xia clan would be like. Once
they saw that, they would leave.
When Emily walked up to Charlie, she stopped and said, "uncle, thank you for what you did seven
years ago."
Flustered, Charlie watched the three of them leaving. It seemed that he couldn't see through Emily, but
he also understood why she still had respect for him.
Seven years ago, when Emily was treated cruelly, Charlie once secretly gave her a sum of money
without leaving any trace. This little inadvertent kindness made Emily remember it for so many years.
Perhaps they were the most innocent people who knew nothing about the life compared with Emily,
and they were also the most tired people in the life.
"Dad, sister Emily..." Walter wanted to ask what Emily had just told him.
Charlie shook his head and said, "Walter, since Emily has chosen you, and you want to do what you
want to do, then do it. I won't stop you, and your mother won't stop you."
"Yes, I know."
"I'll take your grandpa home. I can't help with the business. I'm not a qualified father." Either to Star or
to Walter, he did not do his best.
Walter didn't say anything, and Charlie didn't force him to say anything more. He left with Michael, who
was still in a trance. These two days, Michael suffered a lot.
Leaving the Xia Company, Emily took another look at it.
"Don't worry. I'm sure the person you choose will be a good choice." Brian said.
Of course Emily knew that, so she held up Charles in his arms.
"Charles, I believe in your ability, remember, to tell your descendants to ensure that the Xia Company
will be safe for the third lifetime."
There was no other things Tristan left in the world, only the Xia Company. They gave her endless care
in the two years, and there was nothing to repay the gratitude, so she had to do her best to protect the
Xia Company in her lifetime. She believed that Charles could do it.
"I know, Mommy. I will do it."
Emily nodded slightly. With Emily in his arms, Brian knew what the Xia Company meant in her heart, so
he didn't ask or say anything. He just slowly passed the warmth to her, letting her understand that even
if Tristan was not there, she was still in warmth.
Emily also understood what Brian said. She smiled with comfort and got closer to him. Charles also
smiled. He knew the warmth he felt at this moment was called happiness.
There was finally a day when peace was restored, and when happiness came to bear the blow.
That night, Charles kept browsing the information about Emily, but there was very little useful. At last,
he decided to put it aside. He believed that his mother would tell this to him sooner or later.
That night, Emily woke up from a nightmare in the middle of the night. She sensed that her body was
soaked in cold sweat, but Brian didn't ask anything. He quietly hugged her and Emily looked out at the
dark night. Her eyes were as sharp as ice, as if it had been buried in the lonely and cold night in
thousands of years.
In the night, Haze sent a message to Zoey. After he listened to the message, his fingers tightened. It
didn't stretch out again in the all night.
At the same time, someone received a phone call in a villa somewhere abroad. It was so fierce that it
involved everyone. All the forces trembled in the darkness. Whether they were well prepared or not,
none of them were able to escape from the whirlpool.
"How are you feeling?" Looking at Emily who had barely slept the whole night, Brian said.
Since Emily had been woken up by the nightmare at midnight, she could not fall asleep again. Even in
the arms of Emily, feeling the warmth from his arm, she did not feel sleepy at all. She could only open
her eyes until that the dawn in the East was covered by the morning sun.
Emily lifted the quilt and sat on the bed. She stared at the sun and said, "I feel the blood in my body
move."
Brian's eyes darkened. Even though he was usually calm, he could feel the blood in her voice.
"Is there any trouble?" Brian put a glass of water on Emily's hand and kept holding her hand.
"I don't know. But I have nightmares which haven't happened for a long time appeared again in my
dreams. I almost forget those facts in the past."
