Emily's mother Christine had to remind Leo of this thing, after all, daughter and business are very
important for Charles.
Christine continued.
“Now that Charles has this idea, I can no longer help you keep Emily. After all, Charles knows I'm
faking illness.”
“How long will it take?”
Leo was also aware of the seriousness of the problem and was afraid that his efforts would be in vain if
Emily went aboard for a long time.
“I don't know that yet.”
Christine could not give the exact time, because she had not yet discussed this matter in detail with her
husband and daughter.
Since this was the case, Leo felt that he should tell them about his relationship with Emily, and there
might be a chance to save the situation.
Just then, Charles came back from work.
“Leo is there, you hadn’t been here for many days.”
“Hello, Charles. I was sick and busy so I had not come in the past days.”
Leo rose to greet respectfully.
Then he couldn't wait to speak.
“Charles, come and sit, I have something to tell you.”
Leo stood and did not sit down until Charles came and sat down.
“OK, go ahead.”
Charles said with a generous manner.
“Well, actually I and...”
Before he could finish, he heard a huge sound from upstairs, then Emily came close to him.
Emily wearing pajamas, hair messy and sleepy eyes ran downstairs in panic, came to Leo to cover
Leo’s mouth.
“Tell me what you want to say.”
Emily stared at Leo, but in front of her parents, her voice was not presumptuous.
Emily was flustered because she read Leo's message. Afraid Leo really said it out, she rushed down to
stop him.
“Mom, Dad, I'm taking him upstairs. We have something to say.”
Emily pulled Leo upstairs. And later she looked back to her parents.
“Mom, Dad, get dinner ready. Leo will eat here.”
Emily had to do so, or her parents would follow upstairs to eavesdrop. And it would have no difference
with that Leo said it out, and her parent would sure marry him to Leo.
She pulled Leo into her his room, confirmed that parents did not come after and then locked the door.
“Come here, don't stand by the door.”
Afraid that her parents would hear them, Emily pulled Leo to the cloakroom.
“Are you crazy that you could talk to my parents about that?”
In the cloakroom, she did not give Leo time for panting but angrily blamed Leo.
When she woke up and saw Leo's message, she checked the time to make sure Leo was at her house.
She was so frightened at the moment as if she had seen a ghost.
Emily was scared, now if she could talk to Leo in a harmonious manner, she must be crazy.
“You just woke up? Did you just see my message?”
Leo was not angry, but gave a smile when he saw that Emily was messy. Well, Leo was in a great
mood to see her no matter what she looked like or what she said.
“Yes, but why are you smiling? Is it funny that I look like this? If funny, why do you still pester me? I will
be like this every day after we get married.”
Emily was angry that Leo was smiling at this moment. She did not know what to say but mentioned
marriage unconsciously.
Emily was furious, but Leo gave a happy smile. He did not answer Emily's question, but directly held
Emily into his arms.
“There seems to be hope for me. You are already thinking of marriage. Don't worry. I love you even if
you are like this or a dissatisfied wife.”
Leo said sincerely. No matter what kind of person Emily was, what he would become later, he loved her
as always.
“You...”
Emily was touched by Leo's words. In a close distance, she felt his heartbeat so real, hoping that his
words were as real as his heartbeat.
“Let's start over, give me another chance, I will not let you down, I will not deceive you again.”
Leo once again confessed his love.
This time Emily did not interrupt Leo's words, she did not immediately say no. She was seriously
thinking about whether this man's chest could be relied on for a lifetime and whether it could warm her
for a lifetime.
Emily rationally pushed Leo away, stepped back to keep her distance.
“Leo, Dad asked me to help him when I came back from business school. Actually, I wanted to go
abroad to enrich myself and then come back to help my family. I can't let my parents support me
forever. I have to do something.”
Emily did not directly answer Leo's question, because she had not made up her mind.
Getting along with Leo these days made her touched, but she did not have impulse to say yes now.
She wanted to give herself some time to think it over.
“Will you go abroad? How long will it take?”
Leo did not force Emily, knowing that she still minded his past.
“I will be back in about two months. I want to go abroad. I will think about our situation and give you an
answer in two months.”
Emily originally wanted to be aboard for a few years, but not she shortened it to two months.
But Leo could not accept that she went abroad, because it was too difficult to meet. Besides, with two
months apart from him, she might probably forget him. She might say no to him when she came back.
“If you believe me, I'll give you an opinion.”
Leo must find a way, or Emily would run away again.
“What?”
Emily wanted to listen to Leo's opinion, she would adopt it if she could.
“Don’t go abroad. Just study at B University. You are new at business, you may not be able to use what
you have learned abroad. B University has a class of economic management, the things you learned
will be more practical and useful. It's just longer than the time you spend abroad, it is about five
months.”
“But it's may be good. You have your own company, so you can spend the five months learning and
getting family with the running of your company.”
“After you enter the company to work for a period of time, you have a stable performance, then you can
study abroad.”
“If you want to work in the company and to help Charles, pay attention to talent from the start, build
your own team, and find the right assistants you trust. Only then can you relax when you come to
work.”
Leo said specifically. According to Emily's current situation, he developed a set of plans. He could not
only keep Emily around, but also let Emily learn. .
Emily listened to him carefully and then gave it a consideration. Leo was a brilliant man and an
excellent leader. He had experience in this field.
In this case she should listen to Leo's opinion.
“Well, I'll talk it over with Dad.”
Emily herself still could not make up her mind, and she needed more people to give her advice.
“Ok, you should think about it.”
“After discussion with Charles, if you decide to study in B University, I can let you go to the class at any
time.”
Leo confidently said, because he could easily fix it.
“Ok. But you can't tell my parents that we... we slept together in this five months.”
Emily had to say that, or she wouldn't have time to think about it.
“Five months? You said you'd think about it in two months. Why now it's five months?”
Leo rebelled. Two months was a long time to wait. Five would break him.
“I'm talking about study time. If I study for two months, I'll give you two months. If I study for five
months, I'll give you five months. Tell me, should I go abroad or stay?”
Emily threatened Leo, but now Leo knew the weakness of Emily, Emily could not threaten him.
“I can't wait for five months. I have to talk to your parents now.”
Leo turned to go outside, and Emily hurried to pull Leo.
“You can't tell them now, four months, four months, ok?”
Emily compromised, but Leo was satisfied. He shook his head without speaking.
“Three months?”
Leo still shook his head.”
“Two and a half months, that's my bottom line. If you insist on telling my parents, I will definitely choose
to go abroad. I am not sure how many months I will come back.”
Emily angrily let go of Leo's hand. She had repeatedly flinched, if Leo did not agree, there was nothing
she could do.
She had to show a tough attitude, or Leo would not give her two months.
“Ok, Two and a half months.”
Leo could bear the extra half a month. But he couldn't bear it without a deadline.
For the first time, the two reached an agreement, and for the first time, there was no argument. It was a
good direction, a pleasant start.
In order to be safe, Leo found an opportunity to secretly tell Charles about it. Charles agreed with Leo's
opinion and said he was willing to cooperate with Leo to make Emily stay.
Winnie and Brian seemed to be hiding from each other since they told the kids. Winnie tried not to
report work, and Brian tried not to let Winnie to see him.
Such a situation was confortable for Winnie.
With the pain Brian gave her, without the disdain the Bennet family gave her, she finally felt that she
could breathe.
Winnie felt that one day Brian would soon drive her out of the Bennet Group, in this way, she would
completely get rid of Brian, and sooner or later she would get over.
