Chapter 51

The next day, Emma received a call from Sebastian’s mother, Yolanda Dow,

Yolanda mentioned that the Gomez family was facing trouble because of Aria, and since Mateo and Nora couldn’t help her, she hoped Emma could step in.

Josiah was skeptical. “Miss Wilson, the Gomez family is under police investigation. They might be trying to drag you down. Maybe you shouldn’t go.”

Emma sneered. “They probably think the enemy of their enemy is their friend. But Sebastian’s uncle nearly killed Uncle Sean. Do they really think they can get away with that?”

Josiah smirked. “You’re right.”

“So, in this game, it doesn’t hurt to play along. Besides, I have my own plans.” Emma smiled.

Emma arrived at the club Yolanda had specified. Security guards stood at the entrance to the private room.

Inside, an elegant middle–aged woman sat at a massive dining table, wearing an emerald necklace recently acquired at an auction, rumored

to be worth over 10 million dollars.

Yolanda, who had gained immense popularity for acquiring this emerald, had made international news, showcasing the Gomez family’s wealth once again.

Today, she wore the emerald, clearly to assert her power and authority over Emma. A subtle form of intimidation.

Seeing Emma, Yolanda pointed to the seat in front of her. “Take a seat.”

Emma pulled out a chair and sat down, her presence commanding attention.

Yolanda watched her closely. Emma, dressed in a sleek black dress and high heels, with long flowing hair and legs crossed, exuded a lazy confidence. Even with sunglasses perched on her nose, there was an undeniable arrogance about her.
