Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 335: $250

On the other side, Emily, dressed in a pale purple gown, jumped out of the car, and Mr. Langdon's voice rang in her ears:

"Emily, don't wander off tonight. Today's attendees are all prominent figures, and you are about to take over the Langdon family business. You need to establish good relationships with these uncles and elders."

"Dad, I know. It's just those four families, right? I've memorized their information by heart," Emily replied impatiently.

"My girl, your rash nature is why I can't help but worry," Mr. Langdon shook his head. From her childhood, his daughter had never been the graceful debutante that others

were.

She was lively, almost tomboyish, always mixing with boys from a young age. Just when she had finally decided to take over the company, Mr. Langdon felt anything but reassured.

"Dad, just relax. Your daughter isn't that tomboy anymore."

After some heartbreaking experiences, she had transformed entirely.

That scoundrel had once criticized her for not being feminine enough, hadn't he? Now she wore long dresses, high heels, and makeup, determined to make him regret his words profoundly.

"By the way, there's an update on the Montgomery family. Their daughter is about to become the vice president. We have some dealings with the Montgomery family, so make sure you treat Miss Montgomery well," her father quickly added.

The last time he took his daughter to a gathering, he had lost sight of Emily for just a moment, and she ended up giving someone's daughter a black eye and a bloody nose. Today was a Montgomery family event, and he needed to keep a close eye on her. Emily hated being constrained and no sooner had they entered the hall than she blended into the crowd, slipping away from Mr. Langdon's watchful eye.

Unfortunately, today was not Emily's day. As she turned her head, she spotted Kevin and Amelia Stewart huddled close together, that pretentious woman.

It was rumored that Amelia was the illegitimate daughter of the Stewart family, never acknowledged until the legitimate son was killed in a car accident, leading them to finally bring Amelia into the fold.

The Stewart family owned a modest company, half the size of the Langdon's, and Emily had never disclosed her own family's wealth to Kevin.

It wasn't that she deliberately hid it; she simply never liked to flaunt her background. Even though her family owned luxury cars and lived in a mansion, she never showed off.
