“H-How did you get your hands on these?” Emma gulped as she was suddenly overcome with anxiety.

It was photographs of her and Arthur, some of which were taken during their hotel stay. If these photos were leaked, she could never dream about paving a new life again!

However, she could not afford to jeopardize her career, so she asked seriously, “How did you get these photos?”

“Easy. I even have a recording of you two. Wanna listen to it, Emma?”

While Elspeth leisurely skimmed through the recordings on her phone, Emma broke out in a cold sweat.

“No, thanks.”

Suddenly, Emma surveyed the surrounding crowd and felt a deep, dark hatred fill her heart. Elspeth must be doing this on purpose! She purposefully chose such an open space to humiliate me!

“So, do you still want to sign the business transfer agreement, Miss Walker?” Elspeth chuckled mockingly. Now that the matter was a foregone conclusion, Emma only asked for trouble when she agreed to meet them that day.

“Let’s put this matter on hold for the time being. I’ll think about it again.” Emma was so enraged that she trembled when she thought about passing up such a rare opportunity. Since she was the lone wolf in the confrontation, she could not afford to lose her cool, so she had to endure the demeaning treatment.

She then stood up and attempted to leave, but suddenly, a mocking sneer came from behind her. “How could we give up on the contract today? Let’s sit and have a good chat.”

Arthur appeared out of nowhere, but the calm smile on his face was enough to make people feel uncomfortable. Afterward, he pulled the chair beside Emma and took a seat.

“Arthur!” The moment she noticed him, she instantly brightened up. “What brings you here?”

Then, he ruffled her hair with a smile and replied, “I came over to check on the situation since I was free. What’s the matter? Isn’t it going well?”

“T-They claimed to have photos of us spending the night at a hotel, but I think they are all edited. They also threatened me and didn’t let me sign the contract.”
