Please Come Back, Honey!

Chapter 179

In the evening, Emma, Wilson, and Nina went to the Young Family's old house for a formal dinner. The Young Family was flourishing, so the setting was very grand.

As Wilson previously said, perhaps it was because he had introduced Emma's existence to the family in advance, for everyone was very friendly to Emma. As such, she wasn't as nervous as she had been.

What she didn't know was that Wilson had also told the family about her origins. Everyone was happy for him, and they also felt distressed and sorry for Emma since she had lived away from family for so many years.

In particular, Celestia, the old madam of the Young Family, held Emma's hand and kept crying. Although Emma was a little puzzled as to why everyone was so agitated when they saw her, she was willing to attribute this enthusiasm to their kindness. Celestia even insisted on giving her a set of emerald jewelry which contained earrings, necklaces, rings, and bracelets.

As soon as Emma saw the color of the emerald stones, she knew that they were very expensive. How could she dare to accept it?

However, Celestia and everyone else persuaded her to accept the gift, so Emma had to accept it. She thought that she would put it at Wilson and Nina's home when she returned and let them keep it for her.

Similarly, Wilson and Nina had also prepared a gift for her. It was a house in Jonestown so that she wouldn't have to rent a place. Emma was so surprised that she was speechless. Nina said to her warmly, "You live alone in Jonestown. Only when you have a home of your own will you have a sense

of belonging and security."

Wilson added, "We found out that your best friend lives here, so we also bought a house for you. You can be close to her now, and the two of you can take care of each other."

Emma's eyes turned red all of a sudden; she couldn't help but be moved by Wilson and Nina's thoroughness. She didn't have many thoughts about the house, but they even thought about arranging for her to stay close to her best friend, which immediately moved her.

In the past, Steven's parents—Emma's so-called grandparents—were not good to her at all.

At first, they didn't know that she was not their biological granddaughter, and they hated her in every possible way just because she was a girl. When they found out that she was not their biological granddaughter later on, their rejection and disgust for her became even more severe. She was not even allowed to visit their house during the New Year. She was unhappy even when she was younger, especially whenever Simon returned from New Year's visits and showed her his bulging pockets full of all kinds of snacks and candies.

She had also secretly hidden away to cry many times, and she also asked her adoptive mother in frustration why her grandparents didn't like her. However, what kind of answer could she get for such a question? In the end, her adoptive mother could only hold her and cry too.

Yet, at this moment, in the face of the love and kindness of everyone in the Young Family, Emma felt that her misfortunes in the past had been left behind.

Celestia brought her into her arms and said tearfully, "Good girl. You have suffered for so many years.

Don't worry, you will have a good life in the future."

What Celestia said was not an exaggeration at all, for the entire Young Family wanted to give the best to her.

Wilson was the youngest child of Celestia, so Emma was naturally the youngest of the younger generation. Her cousin brothers and sisters above her gave her many gifts such as limited-edition bags, designer jewelry, and so on. Emma accepted so many gifts that she had nowhere to put them.

She was also very self-conscious that she didn't have any gifts for them. One of her cousins who ran a fashion brand smiled and said to her, "Your presence is the best gift to us."

That cousin also handed her a card. "This card is for you. In the future, you can have free clothes all year round at my stores."

Emma glanced at the logo on the card and couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise. This seemed to be the fashion brand that Susanna had recently worked with. A few days ago, Susanna went to shoot an advertisement for this brand. It turned out that this brand was run by the Young Family.

The cousin seemed to see through Emma's thoughts and said with a chuckle, "Yes, it's the brand endorsed by your good friend."

"What a coincidence." Emma took the card with a smile. "Thank you."

Emma didn't know what to say; although she felt that she couldn't wear such high-end luxury clothing on normal days, she had to accept her cousin's gift nonetheless.

The hustle and bustle of the dinner continued until late, and Emma was tired but happy when she returned to the hotel.

This kind of life was something she had never imagined before. Tonight, Celestia even mentioned that she would make Wilson's adoption public. However, Emma thought about it and decided not to announce it just yet.

She was not used to being given attention all the time, and she just wanted to write stories quietly. As such, Celestia chose to respect her decision.

Emma stayed in Kingsford for three days. The more she stayed, the less she wanted to leave. Celestia and Wilson didn't want her to leave either.

However, even though she was on cloud nine, someone else couldn't hold back anymore.

One day, Emma received a call from Cerys. Cerys had a brief chat with her and said, "Regarding the 'The Love Story of Imperial Consort Rose' project, Mr. Bateson feels that your script should be progressing well, and we need to hold a meeting to discuss its further development. Since President Zurich is the director, he can participate via video conference instead of attending the meeting in person, but as a screenwriter, shouldn't you be here physically?"

Emma didn't think much about it and only thought that Cerys' words made sense.

Wesley couldn't possibly leave, so she was the only one who had to hurry back to the meeting.

As such, she happily agreed to it. "Alright, when will the meeting be held? I will book my return flight immediately."

Cerys said, "It'll be held tomorrow at 9.00AM in the conference room."

Emma replied, "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Emma booked a ticket and told Wilson that she was going to leave. Wilson was naturally reluctant to let her go, but he also knew that it was unrealistic to keep Emma in Kingsford all the time.

Although everyone in the Young Family hoped that Emma could come to Kingsford to live, this wish would definitely not come true for the time being.

Wilson sent Emma to the airport. Before she left, he told her seriously, "Keep away from Trevor when you go back."

Emma smiled and comforted him, saying, "Don't worry."

As long as Trevor didn't take the initiative to find her, she would never look for him first. In fact, she wanted to be miles away from Trevor.

However, the future was not set in stone. Emma didn't expect that she and Trevor had to go to the hospital together the same night she returned to Jonestown.

The man went to her house at night and said that he wanted to see Minnie.

Minnie happened to come out from under the couch, and when Trevor raised his hand to touch Minnie, it scratched Trevor's hand out of fright.

When Emma saw that the back of Trevor's hand was bleeding, she panicked since Minnie had not been vaccinated against rabies yet.

According to the pet shop where Trevor purchased Minnie, Minnie recently had its other vaccines, and it would take some time before it could get the rabies vaccine.

"Quick, go to the hospital." Emma pulled Trevor up immediately.

However, he didn't take it seriously. "It's such a small injury."

Emma's voice was stern. "Just go. Minnie has not been vaccinated against rabies. It is very dangerous."

Trevor pursed his lips and went out with her.

One day, Emma received a call from Cerys. Cerys had a brief chat with her and said, "Regarding the 'The Love Story of Imperial Consort Rose' project, Mr. Bateson feels that your script should be progressing well, and we need to hold a meeting to discuss its further development. Since President Zurich is the director, he can participate via video conference instead of attending the meeting in person, but as a screenwriter, shouldn't you be here physically?"
