Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 683

Emily was stunned when she saw what was in his hand.

She didn't expect that he had picked up the case in the trash can. He squinted at her with his clear eyes. She didn't know whether it was because he stood against light, but his eyes looked glacial. Simon's pupils dilated. He repeated in a deep voice, "What is this?"

Emily was shocked by his serious tone. The words "For Emergency Postcoital Contraception" were written in big letters on the case. She swallowed hard quietly and pursed her lips. "Don't you know..." Hearing this, Simon seemed to be very angry. This time, he didn't hide what he thought and hissed at her, "Do you know that this medicine does no good to your body? You can only eat it twice a year! At most! What were you thinking about?"

"... Now I know it!" Emily frowned.

She wasn't a doctor, so she didn't know much about that. She couldn't understand why he got mad at her.

Simon tightened his grip, so the cardboard case was slightly twisted. He stood a bed away from her and looked at her with his cold eyes. He paused for two seconds and asked, "Why do you take medicine?" "You've forgotten to wear condoms!" Emily answered without hesitation. In fact, it was indeed his fault.

"You took it before?" Simon held it more tightly.

Emily pursed her lips and answered honestly, "Last two times are on my rhythm..."

Simon's Adam's apple rolled quickly, and he stared at her silently for a while. Suddenly, he threw the case back into the trash can, picked up the shirt and coat on the ground, and said, "I get something to do in the hospital. I have to go now!"

After saying these words in a cold voice, he sullenly walked out of the bedroom.

He slammed the door so hard that she heard glass of the window rattle.

Emily stood alone in the room for a long time before she came to herself. The scent left in the room was still warm. She had a hollow, empty feeling in her stomach as she sat at the end of the bed, with her face clouded over with anger.

"What the f*ck has gotten into you?"

After missioning round the whole city with a camera for almost a day, Emily could finally rest when she returned to the station and handed back the machine. There was still half an hour before she got off work. She took out her phone from her pocket and glanced at it. No message.

Simon would have called her at this time.

At the thought of him slamming the door and leaving in the morning, Emily pursed her lips and turned her face away. "Tina, I miss Isla. Let's go to hospital together."

"Wonders never cease!" Tina said with an expression of being surprised. "You do not hang out with Simon but stay with me in the hospital?"

"No, I won't hang out with him." Emily muttered unnaturally.

After work, they took the subway directly to the private hospital. Last time, she saw Tina and Wilson arguing here. After that, Isla was transferred here and lived in the best pediatric ward. When they arrived, Wilson had just left for the ward was full of dolls and other toys.

Isla, who was wearing a hospital gown, was very excited. She took Emily's hand as she repeated that she had a father now and told Emily dolls' stories. Tina, who stood beside, went pale because every "father" her daughter said was torturous for her.

After leaving the ward, Emily sighed and held Tina's hand.

Tina sniffed and shook her head at her.

After coming out of the elevator, Tina became a bit more cheerful. As they were deciding on what's for dinner, Tina suddenly pointed to somewhere and said to her, "Dr. Chin is there, but the girl next to him..." Tina quickly buttoned up. She looked a little chagrined as she tried to distract Emily's attention.

Emily had already looked over. Simon was standing next to a red sedan a few steps ahead. He had already taken off his doctor's coat and changed into casual clothes. Next to him was a gorgeous woman. Wearing a light- colored coat, a pair of cropped leggings and high-heeled shoes, she looked very elegant, and had good features. In particular, she had put on a delicate makeup, which made her more eye- catching.

He was always surrounded by beauties...

Because the woman was facing them, she keenly felt the attention. She took the car key and asked, "Dr. Chin, do you know them?"

Hearing this, Simon tilted his head and looked over.

Emily's hands clenched tightly, and she suddenly felt that the clock was turned back since she had seen a similar scene in the club before.

However, the difference was that Simon didn't say that he didn't know her this time. Instead, he opened the door of the passenger seat and said, "Let's go!"

The red sedan car drove out of the hospital in the sunset and soon disappeared.

"Emily, are you alright?" Tina asked tentatively.

"Of course I'm good!" Emily gritted her teeth and said agitatedly, "Don't you want to have burgers? I'll eat two!"

After arriving at MacDonald's, she indeed ate two Cheeseburgers. Tina stared at her and stopped her from eating more by joking that she was turning jealousy into appetite. When Tina went to the bathroom, Emily's cell phone rang.

Emily wiped her mouth and took it out. When she saw her aunt was calling, she hesitated for a moment.

She tried hard to recall the blind date. She should be polite all the time. In the end, the man left first, so she thought that either he did not like her or he really had something urgent to do.

But after all, she still felt guilty, so she answered it with caution. "Hello...my lovely aunt?"

After a moment's silence, aunt did not mention the blind date, but hurriedly said, "Emily, we got into trouble. Come back now!"

Hearing her aunt's anxious tone over the phone, Emily didn't dare to delay any longer. She bought the ticket for the train and rushed back to the town.

When she got home, it was already late. When she opened the door and saw the scene inside the house, which was totally different than before, she got shocked and asked, "What happened? Did someone break in? Did you get robbed?"

Emily had a sneaking suspicion that someone had broke in. Thief would only jumble up things for searching articles of value, but in here almost all the furniture had been moved. The house was a disaster area of broken glasses.

Aunt was sitting on the sofa wiping her tears, while the uncle was sitting on the other side, smoking with his head down. Selena, who stood next to him with a plaster cast, was wrapping gauze around his head. There was a deathly hush in the room.

Seeing the red blood on the gauze, Emily quickly stepped forward and asked, "Are you injured? Did you get hit when the criminals came in? Did you fight them? Are you okay? Why don't you go to the hospital?"

"Emily, we didn't get robbed..." Selena choked with sobs.

"What happened?" Emily frowned in confusion.

"Emily, let me tell you!" Aunt stood up with tears in her eyes. "It's all your uncle's fault! Last month, his childhood friend came to us and said that he invested his money into a good account. He asked everyone he knew for backers. He promised us huge profits because the rate he offered was higher than bank interest. For one hundred thousand dollars we'll receive ten thousand a year! So your uncle publicized it in his company as a guarantee. Everyone gave money to him when they heard that they could get such an enormous windfall. But he couldn't get in touch with his friend since last week! His friend decamped with all the money."

Aunt reached out and pointed to her husband and scolded, "Why don't you say something? It's all your fault. Now you just sit there and smoke. Smoking can't solve the problem! I told you not to do it, but you just don't listen! We can lose money, but many people are implicated in this case. We have no money to pay them!"

Uncle looked very depressed and painful. He smoked incessantly and said, "How could I know that he would escape? We grew up together. When I couldn't pay my college fees, he supported me. How could I turn him down since he came to ask for my help! Besides, what he does is legal. I just helped him out of my kindness. I want everyone to earn more money!"

"Money, money. He has run away! How can we get our money back!" Aunt was so angry that she kept sobbing.

"Did you call the police?" Emily kindly handed her a napkin.

"Of course we did, so we knew that his friend had gone missing for a long time. We couldn't find him!" Aunt shook her head and cried, "These backers are the colleagues in your uncle's company, an enterprise that evolved from a chemical plant. They all know each other well for so many years that they gave all the money to your uncle! Although local police have already initiated an investigation into this event, we can't get enough money in a short time. Besides, we don't know if we

can get all money back. Your uncle signed a contract, so they ask him for the money! They smashed our home and said that they would come back tomorrow morning!"

When Emily heard this, she finally understood why her family had become like this.

Her uncle committed a crime of illegal fund-raising out of kindness, because he trusted wrong person due to his simple and honest character. Although it was not him who took the money away, so many people gave their money to him, so he had to pay them back and assuage their outrage. After all, it was not easy saving up money.

Emily helped her aunt sit down again and asked with a frown, "Auntie, how much is it in total?"

"One million dollars in total!" Her face was convulsed with rage when she said.

"What? One million!" Emily stared at her with wide eyes.

She thought they owed at most three or four hundred thousand, however, she didn't expect they owed a million dollars!

Perhaps this was not a big deal for a rich family, but for her aunt who had been living in the town for a long time, due to their limited salaries, it would be impossible for them to get such a huge sum of money even though

they worked up until their death.
