Love Together, Be With You Never novel Chapter 127

Armand had worked for Kieran for so long, so I thought that he must often punish and beat people. He might even have done some terrible things. Therefore, they must have some special pills or tools. And I was right!

At the coffee shop.

Emmalee was already there when I went over. I sat down, and she said unhappily, "What took you so long? I've been waiting for you!"

I only smiled, "It's worth the wait."

Emmalee didn't say anything. Instead, she leaned back and sized me up. "I've heard about what happened last night. Rachael, you did it! But no matter what you did, Marlon still loves Alicia. He has removed all the scandals this morning!"

"Really?"

"Yeah. If it weren't for Marlon, how could so many scandals disappear today?"

"So what?" I did not care about it.

"This means that no matter what you do, you can't defeat Alicia. Because Marlon still loves her, and you're not gonna win!"

I didn't say anything. Emmalee was right. I only wanted Alicia and Marlon to break up, so that my baby would have his father. But I never realized that if I wanted to get back at Alicia and the Cornells, I must make her get abandoned by Marlon. It would be best if he started hating her. Then Alicia would lose a powerful protector. That would be easier for me to get back at them!

"Emmalee, you're right. But Marlon would not always forgive Alicia. Especially she might have cheated on him. Let us say she is not pregnant with his kid!" I smiled.

Emmalee was shocked and stared at me. "You mean it?"

I got comfortable on my chair. "I just thought that Alicia might do it. After all, you know her well. So, what do you think?"

Emmalee's face changed. She leaned closer to me and asked seriously, "What do you want?"

I lowered my head and played with my fingers. "Nothing important. I just want to find the father of Alicia's baby. After all, it breaks my heart if my cute nephew doesn't know who his father is."

Emmalee stared at me and narrowed her eyes. "You come to me for her baby's father? You mean she's pregnant with Kaleb's kid?"

I looked at her and smiled. This was the first time that Emmalee had been so smart.

"Rachael, are you fucking kidding me?" Emmalee was so angry that she banged on the table and got up, attracting everyone's attention.

I hushed her and smiled as I pulled her back to her seat. "Emmalee, don't get angry!"

Emmalee shook off my hand. She did not sit down but glared at me. "I helped you because you said that you can make Kaleb marry me. But now he has a child. Why would I marry him?"

As she shouted, more people turned around and stared at her. They might see her as a mistress. After all, Emmalee was wearing a skimpy skirt, which simply showed her character.

I didn't say anything and just looked at her quietly.

"Say something! Are you tricking me? Is it because I bullied you before?" Emmalee questioned me.

I took a sip, put the cup down, and slowly said, "Emmalee, let me get this straight. You've bullied me since you were a kid. But I didn't lose anything because of that. So, I don't hate you. Besides, I meet someone who is more hateful. You're not the 'priority'."

Emmalee finally quieted down. "Then what do you mean? You said that I could marry Kaleb!"

I looked at her and suddenly felt that she was so pitiful. Emmalee was just like me. Her family left her no choice. She had to endure and flatter others since she was a kid. However, unlike her, I did not have to live a luxurious and enviable life. But it was her life goal, and she tried so hard.

"Do you love Kaleb?" I asked.

Emmalee choked on my words.

"Then do you like him?" I asked again.

Emmalee did not answer my question. She opened her eyes wide and looked at me in confusion. I could tell that she did not like Kaleb, let alone love him. She treated Kaleb like she had done to other toffs. She did not have any feelings for him. She only wanted benefits and money!

"Emmalee, you don't like Kaleb at all. You only see him as your money maker, a springboard for you to live a better life. Am I right?" I looked into Emmalee's eyes.

Anger began to seep away from her eyes. She sat back down. She became quiet and suddenly smiled mockingly, "Of course. I don't like anyone!"

"So, you don't care if you can marry Kaleb. You don't care if Alicia has his child. You're angry because you don't get enough rewards for what you have done."

Emmalee did not retort. I continued, "However, I promise that you can marry him later if you still want to. Alicia's child is not a threat. If you don't want to marry him, you can get enough money from him to live a good life!"

"What do you want me to do?" Emmalee asked calmly.

"Have Kaleb take this!" I handed the bottle to her and said, "After he takes the pill, he will tell you whatever you ask. And he will not remember anything when he wakes up. You just need to take a video!"

"Great!" Emmalee agreed.

After I told her what to do, I left the coffee shop. I wanted to find Adrian and discuss the product going online tomorrow. But I took a detour to the construction site where Dane worked.

It was eleven o'clock in summer, so it was very hot now. I could see Dane pushing a cart full of bricks in the distance, all sweaty. His fair skin had turned black.

I suddenly remembered that Dane was the cutest guy at school. Girls lined up for him. Back then, he was very flamboyant and did not fear anything.

Dane also saw me. He left the cart there and walked over quickly. He seemed to be a little excited and happy. "Rachael, you, what are you doing here?"
