Enchanted By His Charm - Chapter 927 927: Emery Commit Suicide

A moment later, Lenard stepped forth, patted Jay’s shoulder, and said, “Well, I will go with you.”

Turning to Lenard, Jay replied, “You cannot get close to those drug dealers. They asked me to meet them alone.”

“I know, but I can be your backup,” replied Lenard firmly.

Jay looked serious and said nothing more.

Jay set out to Florida, which made all of the people live in terror and uncertainty, especially Mary, who couldn’t feel at ease. Irish persuaded Mary that Jay and Lenard would ask for help from the local police. The drug dealers took the initiative to show up this time, and it was a good chance to arrest them. Although it was dangerous, Jay and Lenard were experienced after being police officers for years, and they must know how to cope with it.

However, Mary was not relieved by Irish’s words at all. Jay was her only son, and it was natural for a mother to worry about her son’s safety. Steven also stayed at home and kept the telephone in hand.

Irish has no work and stays with Mary and Steven at home. Irish was a spiritual pillar at this critical moment. Joseph thought it was good for Irish because it could distract her attention, and she would not feel depressed anymore.

Joseph tried to finish his work as early as possible every day and then drove to Mary’s house for dinner. After that, he would drive Irish back.

On the day after Jay left for Florida, Shirley asked Roy to Ruby’s house since she was going to have a family meeting. Shirley designated Ruby’s house as a meeting place because Ruby was reluctant to go anywhere but stayed at home.

Shirley asked Roy and Ruby to work together to take precautions against Joseph. Kelly and William were in too vile a mood to work since they were worried about their daughter all day. Shirley was clear that both were out of energy to stand against Joseph. If Roy and Ruby ignore the current situation, Shirley worries that Joseph will seize Runestone Group.

However, Roy disagreed with what Shirley said, while Ruby just remained silent.

Shirley got anxious and said, “Do you know the critical moment? I heard from those old shareholders that Joseph would make the third renovation happen when he would take the opportunity to take in your shares.”

Ruby just answered idly, “Then I have no solutions.”

Shirley was so angry that she knocked on her head and shouted, “If it were not for Emery, would your shares have been bought by him? There will be nothing for you!”

Ruby was helpless.

The bedroom door was closed half, and Emery was crying inside it.

Jay had gone there for three days. There was no news from him except for the first day when he called. Mary was worried about him, while Steven was also absent-minded. Irish was also concerned about Jay. At this time, Joseph comforted them that Jay had arrived in Orlando. Everything was just fine. The reason why there was no action was that those bad guys had no action, either. Jay was waiting.

Irish felt strange about why Joseph was so clear about Jay’s whereabouts, and Joseph just answered that he had asked for help from his friends to protect Jay silently. In Orlando, police officers’ frequent actions would be noticeable, so other actions were needed if necessary.

Mary and Steven thanked Joseph for his thoughtful help.

Joseph made friends with those who had no stable jobs. However, she could understand that it was unavoidable for him with his status and position.

When they got home at night, Mia had left.

Irish was still not so assured. Leaning against the sofa, she changed the channels without any aim. Joseph went out of the shower. Seeing her unhappy, Joseph just comforted her that Jay would be okay.

She turned around to hold him, “I don’t know why. I just feel that something bad may happen. I’m very nervous.”

Joseph patted her back softly. His voice was very gentle.

“It will be okay.”

If it were at the usual time, she would feel better, but tonight she was still anxious.

“I want to go to Florida.” She spurted out.

Joseph got shocked, and then he just frowned, “Nonsense.”

“I’m sincere,” Irish said.

Joseph held her face and said word by word, “You should be sincere since it’s a big issue.”

Irish looked into his eyes, “Joseph, you are so reasonable.”

“Reasonable guys are needed.” Joseph lowered his head and kissed her lips lightly.

The phone rang suddenly. It was Joseph’s.

Somehow Irish’s heart beat quickly. He patted him lightly, and he picked up the phone.

However, Irish saw Joseph’s cold face. After that, she felt more and more nervous.

As he put down the phone, Irish couldn’t wait to ask him what had happened.

Joseph looked at her and said, “Emery killed herself.”

****

It was 10 pm. The police officers blocked Ruby’s house. Some reporters arrived, but they were just stopped outside of the warning line by the police officers.

It was investigated that Emery committed suicide. She left a piece of posthumous paper. The legal, medical expert said that she died at around 9 pm when she jumped from the rooftop and died soon after. There was no fighting, bruise, or scar on her body, representing that she had nobody to attack others. From her pose of falling, it could be proved that she committed suicide.

When Joseph arrived at the spot, Emery’s body had been taken away, but blood was on the floor. It circled into a river, looking scary under the bright lamp. The police officers marked the body figure on the spot while still searching the spot.

The reporters flooded forward when they saw Joseph, putting the cameras in front of him. They asked questions about the fact that Emery had left a posthumous piece of paper.

Joseph just answered, “I’m sorry, but I am not sure, either.”

He held Irish into the spot.

In the room, Ruby cried sadly. She couldn’t stand the police officers’ questions and just held the envelope tightly. Roy and Cassie were also there, as well as Shirley. They were holding and comforting Ruby lightly.

When Irish saw the scene, she felt that the master might be true.

Unlucky things happened to the Lakes family.

Just in a short time, she became a person without any job. Lilith was kidnapped, while Jay went to Florida missing. Now, Emery committed suicide. That was true. Everything needed to be dealt with.

There were police officers in the room. A policewoman was standing beside Ruby, helpless. “You keep on crying. How can we pursue our investigations? Don’t cry. Just answer my questions.”

Ruby raised her head. As she was to answer the policewoman’s question, she saw Joseph in her tears. She stood up suddenly, rushing to Joseph madly.

“It is you who killed Emery. Joseph, you are a killer. Damn it. Go to hell.” Ruby held him, shouting.

The policewoman saw it and just came forward immediately.

As Joseph’s wife, Irish would protect Joseph well. However, she was unhappy to see that scene and pushed Ruby away. Her voice was not polite, either.

“Ruby, what are you doing? The legal medical expert says that she killed herself. How can you scold others since you didn’t take care of her? How can you condemn my husband?”

Roy immediately came forward to persuade them. Cassie was on Irish’s side, “It is the fact that Emery committed suicide. Ruby, can you stop blaming others?”

Ruby angrily showed the envelope in her hand, shouting with tears, “This is Emery’s letter! The reason why she chose to commit suicide was that she didn’t want me to be exploited by Joseph! He threatened me then, so I could only give part of the shares. What is the result? Everyone targeted Emery! What’s wrong with her? She just wanted to stay with me! She was worried that Joseph would make drastic changes to the board. She knew that Joseph was planning to take my share. She didn’t want to become my weakness, so she just…”

She couldn’t stop crying.

“Your hatred is really ridiculous!” Irish stared at her, “First, you need to be clear that Emery committed suicide. Joseph didn’t kill her. Secondly, she couldn’t get over the mental difficulties. It has nothing to do with others. If you want to blame someone, you can blame yourself. Emery could have lived a happy life if it were not for you.”
