Daddy, Mommy had been in Prison novel Chapter 176

“Mr. Lane, we are sure that Robert has taken Eden. After sneaking out of the house with Eden, his people should be staying with Eden till now.”

Emma and Owen looked worried after hearing what Laurence said.

Laurence continued, “We have a plan. You might encounter obstacles at first, but soon, you will have the upper hand.”

“Mr. Knight, last time when you wanted to collaborate with us, you promised you would make Emma marry into the Simpson family, and you would make sure Emma gets their family wealth. However, until this very moment, all Emma did was taking care of that naive boy. Now tell me, why do you think you plan work?”

“There was never a hundred per cent guarantee in either getting people’s wealth or marrying a person. Great wealth comes with great danger. Mr. Lane, if you don’t want to collaborate with me, I can always look for somebody else to assist me.”

All Laurence wanted was the complicated relationship between Emma, Robert and Georgia.

People who knew you well knew how to torture you best.

Which was why he wanted to collaborate with the Lane family. But if the Lane family got over the top, he didn’t have to bear with them either.

Owen took a deep breath. All he could do was to remain humble. After all, he needed Laurence’s help.

“Mr. Knight, then tell me, what do we do now?”

“I have Robert’s mother, and this piece of information is enough to make Robert do whatever we ask him to do. However, Robert’s father is an element of uncertainty. I need to get rid of him. But he is always so well-protected by his security guard. So, if we are getting rid of him, we need to find a special occasion. Georgia and Robert are going to hold a wedding reception, and Robert’s father is going to be there. I will bring Robert’s mother over to their wedding reception. Then we can get rid of the whole Simpson family at once.”

“Before I succeed, Mr. Lane, I need you to remain patient. Let Robert thinks he got his revenge. If Robert is a life-threatening factor, I let my people bring you somewhere else. When I get my victory, then you can all come back here.”

“But of course, if you want to run away now, I let my people get you to a safe point. You can stay there until my plan succeeded.”

Emma clenched her fists. She was together with Robert for more than five years, and she was only a fiancé for him. He never wanted to marry her.

Emma has been waiting until she saw Robert and Georgia together.

Now, Robert wanted to marry Georgia, willingly. Who did Robert think she was? Was she a joke all these years?

Emma’s heart filled with jealousy and hatred. She spoke directly to Laurence over the phone.

“Mr. Knight, I don’t care what you are going to do with Robert. I want to torture Georgia myself.”

Georgia’s academic results were always better than hers since young.

And Georgia was always the teacher’s pet, and she was the peer’s favourite.

That was why Emma has been victimizing herself since junior high. She spread rumours about Georgia until Georgia went to college.

Now, both of them got into a fight in choosing husband as well.

But this time, Emma only allowed herself to win the fight. She would never allow herself to lose this fight for whatever reason.

“As long as I win, you are free to do anything to Georgia.”

Laurence made his promise. Emma told her father, “Father, I think Mr. Knight has got a point. We don’t need to do anything now. Let Robert win, and we’ll act like we are losing. Let Robert happily prepare their wedding reception, then we will give him the final strike.”

Owen closed his eyes and agreed to the decision. Emma walked out of the study room after Owen and she discussed the details of the plan over the phone. A maid walked towards Emma.

“Ms. Lane, Mrs. Lane was looking for you.”

Emma didn’t want to see Flora.

“Tell my mother that I’m occupied.”

The maid knelt before Emma.

“Ms. Lane. Mrs. Lane said if you don’t go see her, she will commit suicide. Please go and see her. She is very weak now.”

After all, Flora was Emma’s mother. Emma headed to Flora’s room at last.

Flora was lying on the bed, and she looked pale.

Her eyes were red and bloated, and her lips were pale.

Flora became agitated when she was Emma walked into the room.

“Emma, why did they say Eden left? What’s going on?”

“Mother, Eden ran away. He was afraid that father would beat him up, so he ran. He is in the police station now. You should leave him alone. People knew about the car accident. Neither of us could save him.”

Eden was Flora’s only son, and he was the reason why Owen liked her. Eden was why Flora became Mrs. Lane.

Now Owen knew that Flora cheated on him, and he hoped her die. Eden was in trouble as well. Flora felt hopeless.

Flora sat up from the bed and held Emma’s hands.

“Emma, please save me. Save your brother… If Eden is in trouble, your father wouldn’t look at me anymore. I won’t survive in this family!”

Emma smiled mockingly when she heard Flora begging her.

“Mother, do you think Eden is the reason why you’re in such a situation? If you didn’t cheat on father and make him mad, you’ll still be Mrs. Lane. Didn’t you realize your mistake? Father is never going to forgive you. Even if Eden stayed at home and he was favoured by father, Eden and I won’t see you as our mother.”

“But I am your mother!”

Flora shouted in anxiety.

“I gave birth to you. Emma, are you going to see your mother and your brother suffer? Owen was a selfish demon. I know you have been working with your father. Look at me and where I’m at now. If you did something he didn’t like someday, he would abandon you as well. Don’t you see it?”

Emma chuckled.

“Mother, I’m not you. I always know what I want. I don’t care if father sees me as her daughter. Most importantly, we work well together. However, you and Eden kept giving us troubles. I’ve had enough of both of you. I didn’t let father push you to the edge because you are my mother. I will give you a chance to live. Mother, resign yourself to your fate. The Simpson family is targeting us now. Father and I are barely surviving. Do you think our family is still as strong as we were?”

“You better reconsider your choice. I knew what you and your father did and what you did to Robert and Georgia six years ago. If you gave up on me now, I’ll be panic, and I might tell Robert what I knew.” Flora shouted angrily. Emma laughed after hearing what flora said.

“Mother, what are you saying? You are prisoned at home now, and you are not accessible to either phone or contacts numbers. How are you going to tell Robert what you knew? Furthermore, if you did that, I can assure you that I won’t allow you to survive, even without my father telling me to. Now, the chance I’m giving you is to go overseas with the big sum of money that I’m going to give you. Then, live there and never come back. Don’t even think about trying to escape.”

“Eden? What about Eden?”

Flora questioned.

“Mother, why do you think Robert is targeting us if Eden didn’t run over Wendy six years ago, and we tried to cover the truth? I can only try my best to keep you alive. After all, You’re my mother. Robert will never let Eden go. There’s no way to keep Eden alive.”

“Send me to America, and give me back whatever that’s under my name.”

All Flora wanted was to get out of this place.

Owen might beat her to death if Flora stayed here any longer. Flora might as well run away from this place like Emma suggested.

“I’ll see what I can do. Stay here now. If father doesn’t agree with me, then I’ll send you away quietly. Remember, don’t come back once you arrive America.”

Emma and Owen wanted to hide their plans from Robert, so they displayed some signs of struggle.

Emma posted a thread on an online platform.

“I could get people to post and say that they have videos from the accident, and those videos proved that Georgia was driving the car. Robert, if you have the time to get ghost-writers to attack me on the internet, might as well publish the video.”

It was rather lively on the internet. Robert didn’t respond to Emma’s thread at the moment.

Robert wanted the marketing plans he prepared to proceed. Now, he had to deal with Eden’s issue with Jason.

Selena told Robert and Jason her secret, so they had to deal with Eden.

According to Robert and Jason’s plan, Selena will bring Eden to the port and let Eden thought he successful stowed away.

However, when the car arrived at the port, Robert and Jason’s bodyguard appeared and tied Eden up.

Then, they found an abandoned factory nearby.

Robert and Jason didn’t even talk much. They ordered their bodyguard to beat Eden up and let him learn a lesson through fists.

Selena remained silent aside.

She didn’t care about the photos Eden has. The only thing she cared about was the secret of hers, and her brother can never be exposed.

Once it was exposed, it could hurt her stepparents, as well as her beloved brother.

Selena would never want such a thing to happen.

So, she quietly watched Robert and Jason dealt with Eden.

Selena used to be a cop, but now, she wanted Eden to suffer.
