Chapter 369 Perilous Moments

After mulling it over, she turned to Harlan and said, "No need, you can just see me off. I drove myself here."

Emily glanced behind Harlan, staring intently for a few seconds. Seeing nothing, she wondered if she had imagined it. Maybe she was just too nervous.

Her heart still pounded with unease, but she tried to reassure herself.

After saying goodbye to Harlan, Emily started her car and drove away from the Ward Mansion, heading west at a steady pace through the dark night.

Suddenly, something unexpected happened.

A blinding light flashed from behind a car not far away, dazzling Emily. She had no choice but to stop her car.

As soon as she stopped, the car behind her followed suit.

Roger's men got out of the car.

It was too dark to see the road clearly.

But Emily could clearly hear someone outside yelling at her, not just yelling, but also banging on her window.

"Get out of the car!"

"Get out!"

Could it be robbers? But there shouldn't be any crooks around the Ward Mansion, right?

Emily quickly replayed everything that had happened in her mind.

After a moment, she came to a conclusion-they were most likely Roger's men.

Roger had been glaring at her earlier. If it weren't for Leo, he probably would have torn her apart. Now, had he sent someone to teach her a lesson?

It made sense. His own daughter was in such a state.

Since he couldn't take it out on Leo, Roger must have decided to blame it all on her. The thought made Emily even more scared.

There was no way she was going to open the window or the door.

That would be asking for death.

Emily frantically searched for her phone to call the police, but after fumbling around several times, she suddenly remembered she had left her phone at the Ward Mansion!
