Second Chances Protecting Mrs. Hall

Chapter 60

Liam could no longer suppress his overwhelming feelings. He kissed Emma deeply, longing for intimacy with her, wanting to get physical with her right now.

But there were still too many obstacles, causing him great anguish.

Liam’s kiss had never been so dominant and intense, almost as if it were tinged with aggression.

After a long while, he let go, leaving Emma slightly breathless.

“Aren’t you afraid of me after she told you those things?” he asked, his voice somewhat hoarse.

Emma looked at the expression of this proud man, who was careful for her sake, and bandaged his wounds with heartache.

“What’s so scary about you?” she said. “All I know is that they treat you poorly. In the past, you didn’t have me. Now you do, and all people who mistreat you, I’ll repay them a thousandfold for what they do to you! Even if it’s hell, I’ll be there with you!”

She was slender, yet her eyes revealed utmost stubbornness,

That was the aura of dominance that belonged solely to her.

Liam held Emma’s hand tightly. They were intimate.

At this moment, the last emotional barrier in his heart was broken. He thought, ‘In this lifetime, Emma is my life!‘

In the Hall family’s villa, Elsie was sitting in the room.

Thinking of the humiliation she had suffered today, her face contorted.

She stared intently at the information on the computer and immediately called Kate.

“Kate, I’ll give you one last chance!” she said. “If you still can’t do it well, you can forget about marrying into the Hall family.”

On the phone, Kate answered while crying softly with sniffles.

She wanted to cry but had no tears.

If it weren’t for the fact that the Johnson family had focused all their attention on her younger brother over the years and that she was not valued at all, as a socialite, she would not have had to strive hard to cozy up to Elsie and Brad.

When Kate received an email from Elsle, her eyes were suddenly filled with menace.

She thought, “Emmal it’s all because of herl After experiencing so many failures, I understand Emma’s point of weakness that can be exploited better than anyone. Now, with the secret weapon Elsie gave me, Emma will surely be in deep shit this time!”

Liam’s hand was not seriously injured. Emma bandaged it for him, The wound would recover in a few days.

When Emma went to school the next day, she noticed that it was surrounded by police officers.

After returning to class, Emma asked her classmates, “What’s with those police officers standing at the school gate?”
