Love Together, Be With You Never

Chapter 77 Deal with Emmalee

Ever since I was a little girl, I hadn't had my own room in the Cornell's and I always slept in the dirty

and dark attic. However, Emmalee always paid visits here, so she was more like the other daughter of

Marvin. And each time she came, she would be treated as well as Alicia.

"Dad, if I sleep in that room, where will Emmalee sleep?" I shouted.

"What do you mean you'll sleep in that room? I'll sleep there, and you'll go back to your attic." Emmalee

was assertive and loud.

Darting an astonishing look at Marvin, I asked, "Dad, is she right? But Kieran is a clean freak. If

someone sleeps in that room, I guess, Kieran will never step a foot in it."

"Of course you'll sleep in that room. Emmalee, go and rest in the guest room in the west." Marvin

replied immediately.

"Uncle." Emmalee grumbled, not knowing the situation.

"It's settled." Marvin turned around and left, not giving Emmalee the chance to speak.

Going upstairs slowly, I brushed past Emmalee and Alicia. I stopped on the staircase above them,

saying, "I'm a member of the family and you're merely a guest. Without my permission, you'll never get

what you want in this house. Alicia, am I right?"

I continued to go upstairs with a smile before Alicia replied.

"Rachael, wait and see." Emmalee shouted in rage behind me, which I didn't care at all.

Late at night.

When I walked out of my bedroom, I saw Emmalee sitting on a bench in the garden with resentment.

Seeing me, Emmalee looked like a provoked hedgehog. She stood up right the second and said, "What

are you doing here?"

I slowly walked to the bench opposite her and sat down. I looked up at the moon in the sky. The moon

looked especially bright tonight without being covered by any cloud and mist.

"What the hell are you gonna do?" Emmalee gave me a hostile glare.

Forcing a sneer, I looked up at her with my staring eyes, "Emmalee, if you want to get something from

the Cornell family or Alicia, you'd better one thing. You'll get what you want only when the Cornell

family or Alicia is willing to give you the chance. Otherwise, you'll get nothing, even if you are acting like

a loyal hanger-on."

"What do you mean?" Rushing over with a blaze of anger, Emmalee was about to slap me in the face.

I looked up, staring into her, "Am I wrong?"

Emmalee's eyes were burning with rage, but she didn't do it to me in the end. Although Emmalee was

ignorant and didn't know about sizing up the situation, she wasn't a fool anyway. Anyone would sense

something if being humiliated like yesterday and being treated differently like today. So, she wouldn't

get a good sleep tonight.

"Rachael, what on earth do you mean?" Emmalee darted a vigilant look at me.

I relaxed my hands to support my back, saying, "Since you're being such a loyal hanger-on of Alicia, Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

what do you think you'll get from her? A bright future or a good man?"

"Good night. I'll go back to sleep." I stood up and left before Emmalee could say something. 'What

Emmalee will say doesn't matter at all, but I can really take advantage of her.' I thought to myself. I

went back to my room with a faint smile on my face. And I did have a nice sleep.

The next day, I woke up as dawn broke. When I went downstairs, Alicia and Emmalee were sitting

together and having their breakfast. And Emmalee was courteously fawning on Alicia while Alicia only

accepted it with a smile on her face as well as a glitter of superiority and arrogance in her eyes.

"Alicia, look, Marlon and you will get engaged on Saturday, so we'll be a family soon. Marlon is so

powerful. Could you mention the Paris fashion show to Marlon? I believe I can go to the show as long

as Marlon pulls the strings." Emmalee flattered Alicia without sounding too forward.

Finishing the last bite of her breakfast, Alicia wiped her mouth and said to Emmalee in a serious tone,

"Emmalee, you know it. We've been getting along well with each other since childhood, and I do care

about you. But Marlon has been on the trot these days. Don't worry. I'll mention it to him as long as he

has time."

Right at this moment, a horn sounded outside the door, and so did the cell phone of Alicia. She

immediately picked it up and said, "Marlon, I'm coming." Then she went out in a joyous mood without a

glance at Emmalee.

I walked down the stairs, saying "Why not have a look?" As I was walking towards the window,

Emmalee followed.

Marlon got out of the car at the door of the house and opened the car door for Alicia politely. A trace of

shyness gleamed on the face of Alicia, and she kissed Marlon on his face. Then, she got into the care

and Marlon drove away from the Cornell's.

The overwhelming pain dulled me, but I was still standing beside the window and staring into space

with my hands tightly clenched into fists. 'Alicia, enjoy the great time you're having now, because you'll

soon taste the endless pain.' I thought to myself.

I took a deep breath and suppressed all my emotions. Heading back at Emmalee, I saw the hint of

jealousy in her eyes. I flicked a smile, "You got it? You guess how soon she'll mention your requirement

to Marlon, if you keep being her hanger-on. Or otherwise, you'll mention nothing to Marlon whatever

you do."

Alicia would naturally mention nothing to Marlon as who she was, not to mention she knew so well of

Emmalee. Emmalee would steal anyone's boyfriend without caring about whose boyfriend the man

actually was. So, in fact, Alicia was always being vigilant to Emmalee.

"Emmalee, what exactly are you going to do? To wait for your master to reward you or fight for

yourself? "

Emmalee said with a stare at me, "What do you want?"

Curving a smile at Emmalee, I gave Kaleb's business card to her, "I want nothing. If you want to fight

for yourself, then you can come to the man."

Emmalee surveyed Kaleb's business card, saying, "Who is he? Why do you ask me to come to him?"

I leaned lazily against the wall, saying, "You'll get to know who he is when you get there. To tell you the

truth, the man seems to be a doctor, but he actually is the son of the dean of the hospital."

Emmalee's eyes glinted, since a rich guy would always be her prior choice.

"I said before, instead of waiting for the reward from your master, why not fight for yourself? You will

only have to do what you used to do without anything else. Go and coax that guy. Emmalee, I believe

you'll soon become the master of your own future."

"Well, why did you do that?" Emmalee looked vigilant.

Darting a noncommittal look at her, I said, "It's a win-win proposal. But if you don't trust me, just forget

it."

My phone rang at this moment. It was the call from Armand. I looked outside, and found Armand

waiting outside for me respectfully. I was wondering why Armand knew I was here, but later I felt

relieved. Since people like him would always know everything.

After waving to Armand, I said to Emmalee, "It's you call." I turned around and walked out.

"Miss Alicia." Armand opened the car door for me respectfully. I saw the reluctant glitter in Emmalee's

eyes through the window before I got into the car. I curved a smile and thought to myself, 'Perfect.

That's exactly what I want.'

There were only Armand and me on the car today, so it was quiet all along the way. If there was a deep

fear inside me when I met Kieran, I would feel inexplicably amiable when looking at Armand.

"Armand, thank you so much for last night," I said sincerely.

"Miss Alicia, I was just doing my job. You didn't have to thank me." Armand replied.

I smiled, "I know, but I did want to express my appreciation."
