Chapter 93 - 96: Emma Shaw, Exposed (Revised)
When she said that, she was almost out of breath. After she finished, her beautiful peach blossom eyes closed as well.
“Don’t worry, the bleeding will stop soon. Rest assured… my husband will take you to the hospital right now.”
Aidan Lucas swallowed a few times to avoid losing his composure.
He had already noticed the blood on her ~ body.
But to keep her from worrying, he could only force himself not to look at the large patches of bright red stained on the skirt of her light-colored dress.
She was so young that she might not understand what it represented.
He had once accidentally seen the female companion of someone else experience such an accident, and at that time, he had quietly cursed their misfortune.
But now, seeing Lily Gray like this, his heart felt as if it had been tightly gripped, causing him almost unbearable pain.
No longer thinking about anything else, Aidan Lucas picked up this fragile woman in his arms.
He had plenty of time to slowly investigate this matter. Lily Gray’s safety was the most important thing at the moment. With a cold face and holding Lily Gray, Aidan Lucas left the banquet venue with his subordinates clearing the way.
Up the stairs, Emma Shaw, who had pushed someone, was now heading towards the lounge with her head down and panting heavily.
It had been too risky; she had heard Aidan Lucas’s voice just now.
Fearing Lily Gray would expose her on the spot, which would make many pieces of evidence impossible to eliminate, she decisively pushed Lily Gray down without thinking.
Fortunately, she was standing behind Lily Gray, who didn’t turn around to see her, and Aidan Lucas couldn’t possibly have seen her either. As long as she denied pushing Lily Gray, the couple couldn’t do anything to her.
In the end, she was still their aunt.
Emma Shaw was thinking about these things when she suddenly heard a voice coming from ahead.
“Aunt, what happened? Did you catch up with Lily Gray?”
She was startled, realizing it was Angelina Shaw who had come out of the lounge after not seeing her return for a while.
Patting her chest, Emma Shaw said confidently: “Don’t worry, even though 1 didn’t catch up with her, she won’t cause any more trouble now.”
Seeing that Angelina still didn’t understand, she explained: “Lily Gray just fell down the stairs, it was her ‘own carelessness’. After she wakes up, I’ll personally go to the hospital to ‘console’ her, ensuring that she won’t dare to say a word.”
Emma Shaw thought it out well; Lily Gray had been “schemed” against this time by her elder but without any evidence. After being taught a tough lesson, Lily Gray would only be more afraid of her in the future.
As there was no evidence, even if Lily Gray wanted to expose her, she couldn’t. Moreover, Lily Gray thought that her mother-in-law Emily Taylor was involved in the matter too, so she wouldn’t dare tell Aidan Lucas easily.
It seemed that Angelina was frightened by the hidden meaning in Emma Shaw’s words. She didn’t respond for a long time.
Emma Shaw sighed, knowing that the younger generation of the Shaw family still had tender hearts and weren’t very useful. If it weren’t for Angelina’s good character and dignified temperament, she wouldn’t have chosen her softest niece from her family side to help her.
“Look at you, just a little thing scared you into silence. This isn’t the first time we’ve done this. In the past, Ethan Wilson’s side had that…” Before she could finish, Emma Shaw finally looked up and realized that something was wrong.
The reason Angelina didn’t dare to speak was not because she was frightened by her words, but rather…
“Emily…Emily…how could you be here…”
Outside the lounge three doors away, Emily Taylor stood there, her gaze fixed on them with a deep and penetrating intensity..
