Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart novel Chapter 161

Gerhard and Heather could naturally sense Vincent's anger. They looked at each other for a while and then stood there in a daze.

They didn't expect that Emelia would become Vincent's adopted daughter. To be honest, they couldn't afford to offend the Longerich family in the Capital.

Heather had always looked down on Emelia's family background, so she was used to being high and mighty in front of Emelia. Being suppressed by Emelia now, she was so angry that she felt dizzy again.

Especially when she thought that her precious daughter, Caroline, might really be punished by the law, she was even more desperate.

Emelia ignored them and said to Vincent on the phone, choking with sobs, "Mr. Longerich, your words are enough. I'll deal with it first."

Vincent reminded her a few more words before hanging up the phone.

Afterwards, Emelia walked over and opened the door, letting Julian in.

She had already frightened Gerhard and Heather with the power of Vincent. It was no longer a big deal for Julian to come in.

When it came to his family, she didn't need him to stand up for her, because it had long been meaningless.

Julian walked in with anger and eyed at Emelia to see if she was being treated with malice. However, Emelia looked away.

"Julian, look at her! She is the good girl you fall in love with!" Heather said in an eccentric tone.

Julian frowned and looked at Heather, who sneered, "You don't know yet, do you? She's really amazing now. She has become Vincent's adopted daughter."

Julian looked at Emelia in astonishment. She had become Vincent's adopted daughter?

When did this happen? How come he knew nothing about it?

But Emelia continued to avoid his gaze and did not explain anything to him.

Suddenly, Heather loudly said in a harsh and vicious tone. "Oh, my god, adopted daughter. Is it sound like a good word? Tell me, have you thrown yourself to his arms taking the advantage of Mrs. Longerich's illness?"

Emelia didn't expect that Heather would insult her like this. She was so infuriated that her face turned pale and her body trembled.

Julian was furious. If the person who had slandered Emelia in front of him today wasn't his mother, he would have slapped her in the face and taught her a lesson.

Julian gritted his teeth and stared at Heather, warning her word by word, "Mom, watch your mouth when you get out of here. If I hear any rumors outside, you will bear all the consequences!"

With the majesty and sharpness accumulated over so many years, even his parents were shocked by him at this moment.

When Heather came to her senses, her eyes were red with anger. "Julian, I'm your mother. Are you going to go against the whole family for this shameless woman now?"

Hearing that Elaine was called shameless by Heather, Julian raised his hand and pulled Elaine, whose face was so pale, behind his back to protect her.

Julian didn't know what he was going through. Those persons closed him the most were trying their best to hurt Emelia. Caroline, his mother, and now even his father was involved.

Julian stood in front of Heather and said coldly, "You mean you and my father and Caroline?"

Heather did not deny it. Julian said coldly, "But Grandpa is on my side."

The authority of Grandpa was enough to suppress Gerhard and Heather.

Heather was rendered speechless by his words. She couldn't speak for a moment because, to put it in detail, the Hughes family was in the control of Julian and Grandpa.

In fact, she and Gerhard had no real power at all.

The so-called charity meeting or manager was nothing but a good name.

Julian added, " Justice will prevail. As long as you, my father, and Caroline take the correct and friendly attitude in this matter, I believe that Emelia won't make things too difficult for you."

She was so gentle and kind. As long as she saw a little sincerity, it would turn into a small matter.

Unfortunately, neither Yvonne nor Caroline really wanted to apologize to her. In other words, they didn't really take Emelia seriously.

Thinking of this, Julian felt a sharp pain in his heart.

It was all his fault. It was all his fault that he hadn't given her enough protection in the past that she was looked down upon like this now.

If he treasured her before, Caroline would not dare go against her.

"You-" Seeing that Julian only spoke for Emelia, Heather was so angry that she burst into tears.

"Well, let's go first." Gerhard pulled Heather out and stopped her from making trouble again.

To be honest, Gerhard also had a headache about Heather's habit of making a fuss. If it weren't for those endless troubles made by her about his cheating back then, it wouldn't have come to this big...

As Heather was pulled out by Gerhard crying. Julian immediately closed the door. Through the door, he could hear Heather crying and scolding Gerhard. "All the men in the Hughes family! You're all bastards!"

Julian didn't want to pay attention to his hysterical mother, nor was he in the mood.

Because Emelia had already slowly squatted down along the wall, sadly hugging herself. Even though he couldn't see her expression, he could tell from her trembling shoulders that she was crying.

Julian clenched his fists tightly to suppress the endless pain in his heart.

Looking down at the person squatting on the ground, he said word by word seriously, "I know you are not that kind of person."

He believed in her. He believed that she was purely an adopted daughter to Vincent, although he did not know why they had such a relationship.

Emelia slowly raised her head and looked at him with mockery in her eyes. "What kind of person?"

Because of her pale face, she looked even more aloof at this time. Even her tone was impassive. She said, "Didn't you always think that I was the kind of person who was shameless and coveted wealth?"

In the three years he had spent with her, Julian had humiliated her many times about her climbing into his bed when he was drunk.

She had tried countless times to explain that she had been framed by Oliver, but he never listened.

He was certain that she was shameless, but now he said he believed that she was not that kind of person.

Wasn't it ironic?

As she spoke, Emelia cried again. It was unknown whether it was because of Heather or because of Julian's contradictory words.

Heather's dirty thoughts disgusted Emelia.

It didn't matter how Heather slandered her. But how could she talk about Vincent Longerich like that? Heather must have known about his reputation over the years. lightnoveldaily.com
