Chapter 204: 204: Canceling the Engagement 1

Emily expected the man to be waiting for her at home, but when she arrived at the private residence, the villa was empty, even Mrs. Noelle was not there.

Taking out her key to open the living room entrance, Emily sat down on the sofa in the empty house, with no intention to go upstairs. She planned to wait for him to return and have a clear conversation.

However, Mrs. Noelle came back from grocery shopping in no time, only to inform her that the young master was not coming tonight.

What did that mean?

If he was not coming, why did he have her come here in the first place!?

“Mrs. Noelle, I have some errands to run, so I better take my leave now.” Emily said, and picking up her small backpack, she got up to leave.

However, she was stopped by Clayton Howard right at the front door.

“Lady Carter, please pardon my bluntness, but if you leave here today, I’m afraid you won’t be able to see your little brother tomorrow.” Clayton said casually, with an indifferent expression.

For the following few days, except for going to work in the morning, Emily would be picked up by Clayton Howard after work and brought back to the villa, without Baron Stuart showing up at all.

One day after work, as usual, Emily went out of the company building, only to find the man she hadn’t seen in almost a week waiting for her instead of Clayton.

As soon as she appeared, Baron Stuart got out of the car and opened the door.

“Get in the car.” He quickly pulled her into the car as soon as she approached him.

Watching the car driving away, Wallace Carter did not seem as anxious as before.

My sister… she likes Baron Stuart, doesn’t she?

Turning around, Wallace was about to head to the bus station when a familiar male voice came from behind.

“Wallace!” From the white Maserati, Adrian Nash walked down with a smile.

“Brother Jackie?” Wallace was taken by surprise.

He had heard that Brother Jackie had gone on a business trip to France and it had been a long time since he last saw him.

Adrian Nash walked over and asked with a puzzled look after looking around and seeing that Wallace was alone, “Where’s your sister?”

Wallace Carter was startled and the smile on his face suddenly vanished.

He knew that Adrian Nash liked his sister, but, in her heart, there was only Baron Stuart.

No matter how good Brother Jackie had been to the two siblings, to his sister, he was just a friend of the opposite sex…

“My sister seems…to be with Baron Stuart of the Futuren Group.” Perhaps it would be better for both Brother Jackie and his sister if he were to speak openly, freeing them from the dilemmas of love and friendship.

Adrian Nash was taken aback upon hearing this and the smile dropped off his face.

He lowered his eyelids, smiled with a touch of bitterness and said softly,

“Indeed.”

“Brother Jackie, if you truly like my sister, why don’t you do something about it?” Compared to Baron Stuart, Wallace preferred his sister ending up with Adrian Nash.

Adrian Nash looked up, gazing at the distant sky, and revealed a bitter smile, whispering, “Taking action…will it win her heart…”

“…” Wallace looked at him, seeming to see through the emotions hidden in his heart.

“Where are we going?” Along the way, Emily noticed that they were not going towards his villa.

But as soon as she turned her head, a refined male face appeared in her line of sight. In less than a week, she…seemed to miss this handsome face..
