Please Come Back, Honey!

Chapter 193

"That's right." Susanna gently hugged her and said, "Karma will get them soon."

Emma's speculation was correct. The reason why Steven and Simon came to harass her was that they had taken someone's money.

The father and son had a very bad life after being kicked out of Jonestown by Trevor, but they unexpectedly received a call from Alice.

Alice said that as long as they harassed Emma and made her unhappy, the family would keep giving them money, so Steven and his son agreed to it immediately.

Simon glanced at the sum of money he had just received and couldn't help but sigh. "Emma obstructed our way of making money, but she also allowed us to make a profit."

She was the reason why Trevor drove them out of Jonestown, as well as why Alice was sending them money.

Steven sneered and said, "For such a woman, Trevor went against his parents and sent his sister to prison. Something is wrong with him."

After Trevor's words fell, Simon suddenly jumped up in excitement. "Dad, I have a good idea."

Steven raised his eyes and signaled for him to continue, so Simon said sinisterly, "Trevor cares about Emma so much. If we kidnap her to blackmail Trevor, do you think he will give us money to get her

back?"

As soon as Steven heard that there was money involved, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Nonetheless, he was still sensible. After thinking about it, he said in a deep voice, "We can't take any risks. Now that Alice is providing us with money, we should play it safe first."

Simon said, "Let's extort a huge sum of money from Trevor. Once we get the money, we'll take it away and go abroad."

"Do you think it's so easy to go abroad?" Steven disagreed with Simon's proposal. "If the two of us can't speak the local language, we'd face a lot of trouble by then!"

Simon thought for a while and felt that Steven's words also made sense. He didn't do well at school. Although Steven spent a lot of money to get Simon to attend an international prestigious school, Simon did not manage to learn anything well and could only understand foreign languages but not speak them.

On the contrary, Emma, whose studies Steven had never paid attention to since she was a child, went to an ordinary school but got flying colors during her exams.

The reason why Alice targeted Emma like this was to express the anger in her heart.

Because of Wilson's pressure, Arianna's case could not go through the back door at all and could only be judged strictly in accordance with the law.

Alice had also inquired Arianna's lawyer about what would happen to her case. The lawyer said that Arianna's action did constitute a kidnapping, but since Arianna hadn't caused any substantial harm to Emma in the end, she might be given probation first.

Probation indirectly meant that she didn't need to go to jail. As long as she abided by the law during the probation period, she would be free after her probation.

Alice was relieved; at the very least, Arianna didn't have to go to prison and be tortured there.

After all, ever since Arianna was born, she had been the apple of her family's eye. How could she endure the torturous prison condition? This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Even if Arianna ended up with probation, Alice didn't plan on letting Emma go because her daughter's reputation was completely ruined by this incident. Alice had completely forgotten that even if it didn't happen, her precious daughter's reputation would have been ruined by Arianna herself.

In any case, famous families in Jonestown would not consider marrying Arianna.

However, Alice put all these faults on Emma and blamed her for causing Arianna to have a criminal record that would become a stain on her life.

That was why she tried her best to cause distress to Emma and found Steven and his son. It was the result of Alice's discussion with Crystal's mother, Rosalina Letter. Although Trevor had fought with Crystal and Thomas, it didn't affect the relationship between the two families.

Although they took advantage of Steven and Simon's greed, they also underestimated the extent of the duo's greediness.

After Steven and his son discussed it, they contacted Wilson privately again, trying to get money from him as well.

When Wilson received a call from Steven, he was surprised at first. "Who is this?"

Steven went straight to the point. "I heard that Emma has acknowledged you as her godfather, am I right?"

Steven's tone made Wilson frown at once as he could naturally hear the filth in Steven's tone.

However, he still maintained sufficient composure. "And you are?"

Steven said, "I am Steven, Emma's adoptive father."

Wilson was silent for a while at his end, then he raised his eyebrows and said lightly, "Oh."

Steven thought that Wilson would say a few more words, but he didn't expect him to be silent after saying one word. Thus, he had to take the initiative to say, "Well, I'm Emma's adoptive father. Now that you've acknowledged her as your goddaughter, shouldn't we meet?"

Since he was afraid that Wilson wouldn't understand, Steven said again, "Shouldn't you give us something to show your friendship with us?"

Steven thought that Wilson would definitely be annoyed, but the latter agreed happily, "Sure."

Steven was taken aback all of a sudden, then he said in disbelief through the phone, "W-What? Do you

agree?"

Wilson laughed. "Yes, I think we should meet, and I should give you something."

Across the phone, Steven couldn't see that Wilson's smile was actually a sneer at this time.

Wilson hadn't been able to find Steven and Simon to settle their scores. After all, they had bullied and schemed against his own flesh and blood. Every time he thought about it, his chest hurt.

He heard that Steven and his son were expelled from Jonestown by Trevor some time ago. He didn't have time to find someone to inquire about their whereabouts, but in the end, Steven came to find him himself.

Naturally, he would meet them and help Emma deal with the pair. Whatever Steven and his son did to his daughter, he would pay them back. They put his daughter on Trevor's bed, so he could also put Steven's son on a woman's bed. Moreover, it could even be a woman they hated.

He had always been a gentle and refined person, but that didn't mean he had no temper at all. If someone hurt the people he cared about, he would be more vicious than anyone.

Now that Wilson agreed to meet so happily and even promised to give them a gift, Steven was so shocked that he was speechless for a while. Didn't Alice say that Wilson was not easy to convince at all? Alice also said that it was because of Wilson that both Crystal and Arianna had to be humble in front of Emma.

Why was Wilson so nice to him?

Since he wanted Steven to let his guard down, Wilson said affectionately, "After all, you raised Emma. After so many years of hard work, I have to give you a little something."

Steven immediately laughed. "Yes, yes."

Wilson added, "In that case, let's make an appointment to meet. You can decide the time and place."
