My Most Precious Wife novel Chapter 8

Chapter 8 What Did You Give Me?

"Emily is home? What's going on? Get her to come down immediately!"

As he arrived home, Charles stomped his feet in anger when he heard that Emily was upstairs in her room. He thought that his little daughter had met with an accident or at least was with Master Hunter but she, why did she come home alone? Does she intend to abandon her marriage?

This good for nothing! She isn't even that pretty and yet Master Hunter was willing to marry her, how can she be so useless! If she offends Master Hunter, how will the Gale family survive in Bentson City? She's going to drag all of us down.

His wife Kate glared at the maid and shouted, "Hurry and get Emily down!"

"Yes, Madam!" The maid rushed upstairs.

Wendy walked briskly into the house and also heard that Emily is home. She looked at Kate and Kate nodded. Wendy rushed over to Charles who is now furious, she said softly, "Dad, you have high blood pressure. Don't get overly agitated, it's not good for your health.

How could Charles calm down?

"Emily ran away from her engagement, how are we going to explain to Master Hunter?"

"Dad, it was Grandmother Jackson's wish that our family is bound by marriage. What happened tonight, I'm afraid, afraid that Master Hunter won't marry Emily anymore."

Wendy lowered her voice further, "If our families are not bound by marriage, Grandmother Jackson will definitely be very upset. We really can't allow this marriage to be cancelled."

Charles replied hopelessly, "As you said, Master Hunter will not want this fool Emily anymore. How can we salvage this engagement?"

"How about..." Wendy started to blush, some words shouldn't be said by her, a well-known socialite in Bentson City.

Kate of course knew what her daughter meant and continued, "Originally, it was the wish of Grandmother Jackson to bind the Jackson and Gale families in marriage, but it appears to me that Master Hunter isn't that fond of Emily."

"What do you mean?" Charles seems to sense an opportunity.

Kate said immediately, "If we were to change another daughter of the Gale family, someone who is far prettier and talented, perhaps Master Hunter will approve ..."

"Oh yes, in this case second sister will take my place and become the fiancée of Master Hunter."

Emily was coming down the stairs and leaned over the banister, laughed as she looked at Wendy, "But second sister, aren't you already with Jackson family's second son, Vincent Jackson?"

"You... don't you talk nonsense. It's Vincent who is chasing me but I have not agreed." Wendy raised her head and looked clearly at Emily's face, and was shocked, "Emily, you... why don't you have any makeup on? You..."

Kate was also surprised to see that Emily's face was clean. How can this girl reveal her face without any makeup?

"It's already so late, why do I have to make up if I was about to go to bed?"

Emily smiled slyly and stared at Wendy, pretending to be naive.

"Second sister, you taught me how to make up and said that a lady cannot be seen without makeup. But now I realize that I look even better without makeup!"

Charles was stupefied. Normally Emily likes to makeup heavily, but ... but now she actually looks so pretty without makeup!

Wendy's heart sank on seeing her father's expression. She could only force out a laugh. "No, no, it was Emily who always wants to make up. When did I say something like that?"

Once she finished, she changed the topic, "Emily, what happened tonight? Where did you go? Why didn't you turn up at the engagement ceremony?"

She was still that compassionate and gentle sister in front of Emily. With that concerned expression, she definitely acted very well in the role of a sister.

Emily laughed coldly within, in her previous life, it was this lying Wendy who caused her a life of misery. She even caused the death of Vincent Jackson.

Today, the heavens gave her another chance to relive this life. She'll waste her reincarnation If she doesn't deal properly with this sister.

Emily flashed her eyes at her sister and said, "Second sister, I'm not sure why I became dizzy and my whole body heated up after drinking what you gave me."

She rubbed her temples to show that she has not fully recovered.

"I was afraid that I'll make a fool of myself and hurried home for a cold shower. I'm still feeling rather uncomfortable."

She looked towards Wendy and while her eyes betray a hint of a smile, that innocent face of hers acted as if she didn't know what was going on.

"Second sister, what did you let me drink? Why did my body feel so strange?"
