Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart novel Chapter 67

Since Nina and Emelia had invited her to dinner last time, Maisie wanted to invite her back.

That day, she called Emelia. As soon as the phone was connected, Maisie heard a violent knock on the door, accompanied by a man's exasperated roar.

Maisie was shocked and hurriedly asked Emelia, "What had happened?"

Emelia’ voice sounded calm. "It's nothing. Someone was drunk and making a scene outside the corridor. Why are you here?"

"Are you free tonight? I want to invite you to dinner with Nina..." As soon as Maisie finished speaking, there was a heavy kick on the door again, which startled her.

"I'm sorry, Maisie. I'm busy today. Let's meet another day." Emelia' svoice trembled slightly, but she still replied to Maisie politely.

Maisie had to say, "Okay, but is there really nothing wrong with you?"

"Don't worry. I'll hang up first." Emelia replied and hung up the phone.

While hanging up the phone, Maisie heard the man's voice again. "Emelia, open the door!"

Maisie's intuition told her that something must have happened to Emelia.

She sat in her office and thought for long with a frown. Suddenly, she stood up in shock.

That man's voice... If she guessed it correctly, it should be Talyor Jones, Emelia’ brother.

Maisie knew about the past of Emelia and Julian, so she naturally knew how unreliable Taylor Jones was.

It was said that before Emelia went abroad, she transferred all the money in one of her account to her brother Taylor and her father Oliver Jones in order to make a clean cut with them.

In addition, she didn't dare tell them after her return, but she seemed to have heard from the phone that Taylor had gone to find Emelia.

Thinking of this, Maisie got up and hurried to Julian's office. After knocking on the door and entering, she said anxiously, "Mr. Hughes, something may have happened to Emelia."

"What's wrong with her?" Julian put down his work and asked her with a frown.

Maisie said, "I just called her and heard someone kicking her door. That person may be... Taylor Jones."

Hearing the name Taylor Jones, Julian immediately stood up from his seat.

He knew better than anyone how despicable and shameless Taylor was. Taylor had nothing else to do with Emelia. He was definitely going to ask for money.

Given Emelia's current situation, how would she get the money?

In the past, when she was still Mrs. Hughes, he had always been the one to deal with the greed of Taylor and Oliver Jones.

For him, giving the father and son some money every month was nothing worth mentioning.

But for the current Emelia, it was probably a nightmare.

That was the result of her insistence on divorce and abandoning her status as Mrs. Hughes!

Julian thought with hatred, but he still took the car key and said, "I'll go and have a look."

Maisie followed and said, "I'll go with you."

The boss doesn't know how to talk in front of Emelia, so she'd better help ease the tension.

When Julian and Maisie arrived at Emelia's residence, they discovered that the police had actually arrived.

Two police officers were holding Taylor, who was shouting curse words at Emelia's door, and other two police officers were talking to Emelia inside.

At the door, there were several neighbors of the same building, but under the persuasion of the police, they had been ready to leave.

Julian didn't even look at Taylor. He greeted the two policemen with a gloomy face. "Hello, I'm Julian, a friend of the owner. I'm here to see what happened."

The name Julian was very famous in Riverside City. As soon as he reported his name, the two policemen quickly smiled at him.

"So it's Mr. Hughes. Please come in." As they spoke, they pulled Taylor aside and made way for Julian to let him in.

Taylor was so shocked that he couldn't speak when he saw Julian.

A year ago, in a text message from Emelia, she had informed them that she had divorced Julian, and then had given them a sum of money before disappearing.

Taylor and Oliver were so angry that they almost died of anger.

But since they couldn't get in touch with Emelia, they had no choice but to make a fuss with Julian. The result was that he threw the divorce certificate to them.

Originally, they wanted to ask for another sum of money from Julian, but he directly asked the security guard to throw them out.

Taylor didn't expect to see Julian again today. He was so happy that he forgot what to say.

After entering through the door, he immediately saw Emelia standing in the middle of the living room. She was dressed in a white homewear, her face pale and her shoulders trembling as she answered the police's question.

She lowered her eyes, and spoke while covering her waist with one hand.

Julian followed her hand and saw a big footprint on her waist. It was obvious that she had been kicked by Taylor.

Moreover, the kick hurt her. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been holding her waist all the time.

At the thought of her slender body, Julian wanted to strangle Taylor to death.

How malicious was Taylor to kick her?

After all, she was his sister!

As a brother, Julian felt that Taylor was such a bastard.

Seeing him come in from afar, Emelia was startled, but then an endless amount of embarrassment and shame flooded her heart.

Why did Julian see her every time she was down and helpless?

Is that God's will to punish her for being snored by Julian?

In addition, the existence of Taylor and Oliver was the main reason why Emelia had been unable to raise his head in front of Julian.

Emelia awkwardly looked away, not wanting to face Julian.

When Maisie called her just now, she had tried her best to pretend as if nothing had happened. She just didn't want Julian to know about it.

But now...

The policeman who was in charge of questioning Emelia greeted him and then asked in confusion, "What's your relationship?"

"I'm her friend."

"I don't know him well."

The two gave a completely different answer.

The policeman looked at them. He didn't know what to say.

Julian gritted his teeth and stared at Emelia drooping her head. Did she say that they weren't familiar with each other?

What an ungrateful person!

Did she forget who had punished Harvey Norman and helped her vent her anger?

"Brother!"

"Brother!"

Taylor came to his senses outside the door and shouted excitedly.

Emelia’ expression immediately became extremely awkward, and she had nowhere to hide.

She had been dealing with the police calmly since they arrived. At this moment, she quickly walked over and shouted at Taylor, "Shut up!"

She and Julian had divorced for a year. How could he say that?

She had thoroughly trampled on the last trace of her self-esteem in front of Julian.

Also, she didn't want others to know that she had a marriage with Julian.

She didn't want others to know that she was not very kind-hearted.

Everyone would definitely think that it was just a wishful thinking for her to try to get Julian's heart. She deserved to get divorced.
