Stay Around You Now And Forever novel (Hunter Jackson) novel Chapter 74

Emily lifted the cup up and took a shallow taste of the fragrant tea.

 

While being gazed by so many people, yet Emily didn't seem even a little bit uncomfortable.

 

"Emily Gale, what exactly do you mean?” Snowy was always the most impatient one.

 

Snowy thought, “So many people are waiting for her explanation. And how come she doesn't even take it seriously?”

 

“There's no point. Do I have to explain in the face of lies?”

 

Emily put down the cup, hooked her lips, and smiled, “Shouldn't the one who brings out a charge need to present relative evidence as well these days? If she said that I had kicked her out, she would have to show the proof."

 

“Otherwise, I'll have to explain every time if someone comes to make a slanderous remark against me. I surely don’t have so much time.”

 

What Emily had said was reasonable. However, did she mean that Rosy had slandered her by saying so?

 

Rosy, however, did not get angry and just whispered, “It’s not like that at all. It's me who didn't want to hinder Miss Gale from appreciating the bag. That's why I dared not try on the shoes and hurriedly walked out.”

 

She looked at Emily with a smile, looking somewhat uneasy and fearful.

 

"I'm sorry, Miss Gale. It's all a misunderstanding. And it's my fault.’

 

"Rosy! You've been bullied and you are admitting that you were wrong! Since when had the children from the Jackson family been bullied like this?”

 

It was so infuriating to the extreme! How could Rosy Jackson endure it?

 

"Emily Gale, I want you to apologize to Rosy!”

 

But Emily shrugged, "I didn't do anything wrong. So why should I apologize?"

 

Moreover, she took out her phone, tapped the recording button, and placed it on the table.

 

As she fixed her indifferent gaze on Rosy, suddenly, the look in her eyes was cold.

 

"Come on. Tell me exactly what I did to you at that time. I'm a person who always deals with things truthfully. Since you said that I had bullied you, you'd better make your words clear.

 

"Now I'll record what we will say. When the time comes, the police will investigate it. If what you said is a lie, then you probably can't escape from the slander charge.”

 

“Emily Gale, how dare you threaten me?" The look on Tabby's face went dark. She thought that Emily had crossed the line.

 

Sarah also felt that there was no need for them to make such a big scene.

 

She hurriedly whispered, “Emily, it's just a small matter. There's no need... "

 

"No, Aunt Sarah, I think it's quite necessary”

 

This time, Emily didn't compromise at all as she said, "Go ahead. When you're done, I'll see you at the police station.”

 

Rosy didn't expect that Emily could be so tough.

 

She thought, “All the people here are all surnamed Jackson. How come, Emily Gale, an outsider, has the guts to do this?”

 

“Could it be that she wouldn't care about the fact that the members from the Jackson family might murder her in the future?”

 

"Well? How come you dare not say anything? How did I have you kicked out of the store? You're going to make the details clear.”

 

Emily pushed the phone back in Rosy’s direction, smiling shallowly, "I'm waiting.”

 

Several tables of ladies, who sat on the surrounding tables, fixed their gazes on Rosy.

 

The Second Lady wanted to come over and stand up for her daughter, only to be persuaded back by the maids around her.

 

The children had to settle the quarrel between themselves. It was a family gathering tonight. If they did make a big scene, regardless of who was in the right or wrong, the elders who were involved would have to be blamed.

 

The situation just now was just like this with the Grand Lady, Sarah. When the Grand Master came over here, he first put the blame on Sarah without asking for the details first.

 

As the second madam looked at her daughter's aggrieved appearance, she couldn't be more painful.

 

But, the maid convinced her to go back.

 

She simply dared not make a spectacle of herself at such a big party.

 

Rosy didn't expect Emily to be so difficult to handle. She indeed found Emily's reckless and fearless appearance a headache!

 

"I, told you all. It was just a misunderstanding, I... "

 

"No, that's not what you just said.” Emily sneered.

 

"Emily, you've had enough! Did you have to force her?" Tabby pulled Rosy onto herself.

 

"Do you have to bully others like that?"
