Antonio was right, I could leave this house right at this moment and see the most influential family sleeping on the streets tomorrow, begging for a coin to survive.
I highly doubt any of the people living in this massive mansion would be capable of surviving on the streets or even working for that matter.
But no...
That's not what I want. I don't know why, but I want to have Emma in my hands. I want to make her suffer as much as possible until she can no longer lift her gaze from the ground.
"Mr. Zhoa, with all due respect, I don't think Mrs. Wlop can endure this situation for much longer, let alone allow me to sit at her table," Antonio said.
"Furthermore, Mr. Wlop will continue to try and persuade you to give him all the shares he has acquired from your company," Antonio mentioned.
"You're right, Antonio. Emiliano Wlop will keep insisting that I give up all the shares he purchased from his companies, but that cherished dream will never happen. If Emma wants them, she will have to pay a very high price," I replied.
After finishing speaking, I continued walking back into the mansion. As I entered, I saw Emma slowly descending the mansion's staircase...
Tonight, Emma was wearing a strapless, V-neck, form-fitting blue dress that accentuated her sexy body. Her long black hair cascaded over her shoulders. Her makeup style was different from a few years ago. Even her gaze and smile seemed different, as if she were a different woman.
The Emma in front of me had something different in her eyes, a strange sparkle that I couldn't decipher even after a few seconds of looking at her.
Unable to resist, my eyes focused on her, despite not wanting to look at her in this way because of all the pain she caused me in the past. I must admit it's impossible to deny her beauty.
Emma looked just as beautiful as in the past, or maybe even more so. There's that indescribable sparkle in her eyes that attracts me to her.
The more I look at her, the more I realize there's something peculiar about her. I don't know what it is, but it's something different...
Emma approached me with a mysterious smile playing on her lips, unexpectedly resting her hand gently on my arm.
"Mr. Zhoa, I hope I didn't keep you waiting for too long," Emma's voice sounded somewhat different than I remembered.
"Emma, as beautiful and cynical as ever," I wanted to say, but I couldn't. I just held her hand tighter and kissed it.
"For you, I am capable of waiting a lifetime," I responded with a satisfied smile.
"Mr. Zhoa, please come with us. Let's go to the dining room, dinner is ready," Mrs. Wlop commented upon realizing I couldn't take my eyes off Emma.
"Mr. Zhoa, please join us in the dining room for dinner, and then we can discuss our marriage."
I wasn't expecting these words from Emma. I thought by now she would be furious about becoming my wife, but it seems like what she desires most is to be my wife...
At this moment, I wish I had some kind of power to know what she and her nefarious family are planning against me.
"Let's go to the dining room," I responded affectionately, never taking my eyes off her.
Upon arriving at the dining room, I pulled out the chair for Emma to take her seat, like a true gentleman. Then, I sat down next to her, observing the hosts taking their respective places.
As Antonio pulled out his chair to sit down, Tania Wlop stood up from her seat, furious.
"You cannot sit at this table!"
"Who do you think you are?"
"Just another member of this family!"
"You're nothing more than a servant!"
Tania's words shattered the last bit of patience I had left. If things were going to be like this, it's best for all of us to start removing our masks.
I am not liking at all the way this family tries to walk all over me. Completely enraged, I stood up from the chair, hitting the table in front of me forcefully.
It was the last straw how this woman pretends to be a lady when she actually has nothing, as this mansion is under my name and I am the one who decides who sits beside me.
"Mrs. Wlop, if you don't like things the way they are, you and your family can start packing your things to leave this mansion right now, since all of this is under my name and the Zhoa Company."
"I want you out of this property by tomorrow at the latest, or else I will have you evicted!"
At that moment, I no longer wanted this absurd revenge, let alone having Emma and her damn family around.
I believe seeing them all on the streets would be quite satisfying for me, and I wouldn't have to endure it.
Everyone was stunned by my words, just when I thought I had gotten rid of this family. Emma took hold of my hands, pleading for me not to leave.
"Mr. Zhoa, please don't go. My mother didn't mean to anger you this way."
I looked back at Emma, who was holding my hand tightly. It was as if she was trying to keep me by force. Or perhaps it was just my imagination, and what she really wanted was for me not to kick them out of this mansion...
I shook Emma's hand off mine and left the luxurious dining room. I don't want anything to do with this woman, I'd rather see her begging for a coin on the street just to survive.
"Mr. Zhoa, please don't go..."
Furious, I stopped upon hearing Emma's plea. I turned my head back, and seeing her behind me made me completely enraged.
Immediately, I went back to where she was standing, without thinking, I placed my hand on her neck... I had every intention of killing this wicked woman with my own hands...
