Chapter 178
The reporter added, "No, Mr. Bateson. We want to ask who that girl is. We are very curious about
which socialite has won your heart."
Trevor was provoked by the word 'socialite'. If the girl was not a socialite, could she not win his heart?
He instinctively felt sorry for Emma, so he said with a sullen face, "What does her identity have to do
with you?"
The reporter was speechless again. Several of them looked at each other and broke out in cold sweat.
Everyone in the Jonestown media circle knew that it was extremely difficult to interview Trevor. They
had mustered up the courage to ask him questions this time, but they were still ill-treated and turned
into scum.
At this moment, the cold-faced Trevor had already gotten into the car that came to pick him up and left.
After Susanna sent this video, she called Emma again. "Why did Trevor come back? He followed you
to Kingsford and stayed there overnight, didn't he?"
Every time Susanna mentioned Trevor, she had a gloating expression on her face. She couldn't control
it; as long as she saw Trevor collapse, she would feel very relieved.
During the three years when Emma had been married to Trevor, Emma didn't see anything wrong with
him, but Susanna had been furious as a bystander. She wanted to tear Trevor, Arianna, and Crystal
apart.
Emma had been secretly upset because of what happened that morning with Trevor, so she confided in
Susanna.
Susanna nearly died of laughter after hearing this. "I know why Trevor doesn't want to stay in Kingsford
anymore."
Emma sighed and asked, "Why?"
Susanna answered, "You made him lose his male ego, that's why. He was ready, but you said you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtregretted it and even ran away."
Emma was embarrassed. "Are you sure it's because of this?"
Susanna was confident. "I can guarantee that he probably wants to die of irritation because of this."
She then added, "You don't have to feel embarrassed to see him. I think he won't be able to meet you
in a short period without being embarrassed to death either. Hahaha…"
After Susanna finished speaking, she laughed again, and Emma was relieved to hear her analyze
Trevor's thoughts this way.
It would be better if Trevor didn't want to see her, and it would save everyone the embarrassment.
Then, Emma asked Susanna worriedly again, "No one is digging into my matters on the internet, right?
Are they still viciously scolding me?"
Emma had been staying with Wilson and his wife, so she had no time to read the comments online.
She was also a little reluctant to read them. When Steven caused trouble the last time, she had been
frightened by the nasty comments.
"No, there's none."
Susanna continued, "First of all, this trending news was withdrawn very quickly, and the trend
disappeared after a while. Secondly, I don't know what happened to the netizens this time. Perhaps a
man like Trevor is too successful, making everyone else jealous. Everyone is having fun seeing him
getting hindered by obstacles in his relationship, so they are full of praise for you. Everyone says that
you have a backbone for resisting the temptation of a man like Trevor who has both wealth and looks.
They're saying that you are awesome!" Susanna had always been on the front line of such news, so
she knew the trend of comments very well.
What was more, she even joined in and commented, 'Things happen for a reason. Mr. Bateson must
have deserved that kind of treatment.'
At first, Susanna was afraid that everyone would scold Emma, so she tried to criticize Trevor, implying
that the man must have done something bad to receive a slap from a girl.
When the public opinion sided with Emma, Susanna quietened down.
Emma lowered her eyes and said, "How am I awesome? I was fascinated by him too at first."
She had been hurt later on and was finally unmoved by him now.
"Don't think about the unpleasant things in the past; just check out how elevated your position is in front
of him now."
After Susanna finished laughing at Trevor, she suddenly changed to a serious tone and said, "Emma,
don't you think Trevor is serious about you, though?"
Emma shook her head in complete denial. "I don't think so."
In fact, she had been thinking a lot about this issue recently. From the time Trevor volunteered to pay
Steven to help her turn over the tide, as well as when Trevor gave her the unprecedented gift of Minnie
last time.
Emma initially believed Trevor's words about him falling in love with her, but she rationally overturned
those thoughts.
She then said to Susanna, "He has no shortage of women around him. Why should he choose me, the
ex-wife who once made him lose face? Besides, he's losing more of his reputation because of his
choice right now."
Susanna said, "If he really loves you, he wouldn't care about his reputation."
Emma shook her head. "The grass is always greener on the other side, huh?"
Having said that, Emma murmured again, "Perhaps he'll stop if we really have sex."
Susanna giggled and suggested, "Well, why don't you two try to have sex? It'll be in exchange for him
leaving you alone in the future."
Emma felt a headache coming on. "Please, Superstar Susanna, this is just my guess. I can't sleep with
him just because of a guess."
"That's right," Susanna said solemnly. "If he becomes addicted to you after having sex, not only would
you be unable to get rid of him, but you will become even more entangled with him. It will be
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtroublesome."
Emma was speechless.
Can't my best friend think of something better?
Not long after Emma ended the call with Susanna, Wilson knocked on the door and entered the study.
Wilson pretended not to know Emma's origins and asked about her parents' situation. Emma told him
the truth and naturally mentioned that Steven and Simon had brought her to Trevor's bed in the past.
Of course, Wilson didn’t know about this before. He only found out that Steven and Simon were
leeching Trevor off his money. Some time ago, they also accused Emma of not supporting them
financially, but they stopped after being proven wrong.
As soon as Wilson heard that Emma and Trevor's marriage came about like this and learned that
Trevor also treated her very badly after the marriage, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood; he
even took deep breaths while holding his chest to stop himself from passing out.
She was his own flesh and blood. Even a little sadness coming from her would cause him pain that was
magnified countless times. In fact, the pain was acute and unbearable.
As Nina said, although there was no paternity test evidence, he still concluded that Emma was his
daughter, and his inexplicable intimacy and love for her was enough to explain everything.
When he realized that his precious daughter had been treated like this, Wilson, who had always been
gentle and refined, was filled with so much hatred that he wanted to kill Steven, Simon, and Trevor—
the men who didn't cherish his daughter.
Emma didn't expect Wilson to be so angry, so she hurriedly comforted him by saying, "Don’t be angry,
Mr. Young. It's all over; am I not doing well now? We have to go through hardships to grow up.
Although that marriage tore me apart, I am the best version of myself right now."
Wilson looked at the sensible and beautiful girl in front of him and swore in his heart that he would use
all his love to make up for the hurt she had previously suffered for the rest of his life.
The first thing was to keep her away from Trevor.
Emma felt a headache coming on. "Please, Superstar Susanna, this is just my guess. I can't sleep with
him just because of a guess."
