The Spoiled Girl - Chapter 1543 Visit
These new products were nothing like anyone had seen before. To add to that, they were priced at reasonable prices, making their competitive value extremely high. As a result, people on the internet couldn’t stop talking about the products. Everybody in the design world anxiously waited for the release. In just a span of three days, all of the brand new products were completely sold out from every store shelf and online shop.
Love and Dream had just been established a few months ago and already garnered such a prestigious reputation. This made everyone in the design industry appreciate Emily’s success.
“Jonas, what are you doing here?”
Emily asked when she noticed an unexpected visitor at her door.
With a faint smile, Jonas placed his hand on the frame of the office door and replied, “Emily, I heard that your product launch for this season was a big hit. I thought it was a good idea to come here and congratulate you personally.”
Emily wanted to close the door, but Jonas was standing in the way. This handsome man’s arrival started to pique the curiosity of the employees outside. They couldn’t help but look inside and see what was going on.
Emily didn’t know what to do at that point and just responded, “Well then, thank you.”
The look on Jonas’s face showed his dissatisfaction with her response. He then said, “Shouldn’t you be inviting a supportive friend to come inside?”
At that point, Emily felt completely helpless. Long ago, she had already made a decision to stay away from him. Not a single cell in her body wanted him to come near her.
Unfortunately, letting Jonas just stand outside would definitely spark some unnecessary rumors. Moreover, Emily felt a little guilty about ignoring a friend who had come from far away just to congratulate her. Her kind nature couldn’t let him leave without inviting him inside for at least a glass of water.
“All right, come in.” Emily stepped aside to make room for Jonas.
As soon as Jonas walked past by Emily, a mischievous smile appeared on his face.
He knew that Emily would agree to his request as soon as he mentioned the word “friend.”
When Emily returned to her seat, the look on Jonas’s face returned to normal. He was standing with his back turned against the door, which blocked the view of the people outside.
“Emily, you look so drained. Did you stay up all night just to finish the designs?” Jonas asked while approaching Emily’s desk. He then looked straight into her eyes and waited for her response.
Emily didn’t know how to respond and simply said, “Uh.” What he had said about staying up all night was true, but she didn’t think she looked that horrible.
His words made her distraught and before she knew it, Jonas was already standing behind her. “H
is face.
Jonas was just a few steps away from completely hypnotizing Emily. It seemed like he was going to succeed. But just in the nick of time, the door burst wide open.
“Stop!”
Jacob shouted while standing at the door. More than a dozen men dressed in black stood behind him. In a blink of an eye, Jacob rushed inside and kicked Jonas right in the stomach, which sent him flying to the ground.
Jacob’s men stormed inside and held Jonas in place.
Right after, Jacob approached Emily and helped her stand. With eyes filled with concern, he asked “Are you hurt anywhere? I’m so sorry that I took so long.”
The fear Emily had felt earlier made her face turn ghostly pale. But in order to appease Jacob, she nodded along in agreement.
“I’m fine. You came just in time.”
Not being able to move a single inch, Jonas knew something bad was going to happen to him. He’d been exposed and had to think of a way to get out of this situation.
“Emily, how can you just watch while Jacob is harassing me like this? I didn’t do anything wrong. Why did he kick me and why is he ordering his men to restrain me?”
Jonas didn’t struggle at all, so that he could come across as someone who was innocent and didn’t know what was going on. Unfortunately for him, Jacob and his men didn’t buy it. Jacob’s men proceeded to take turns punching and kicking him. He was beaten so badly that his skin turned black and blue.
Upon seeing Jonas in such a badly bruised state, Emily feel a little sympathetic. But when she remembered that this man had come to her with the intention of hypnotizing her again, her kind nature quickly disappeared.
With a frighteningly frigid voice, Emily uttered, “Stop acting stupid, Jonas. You can’t fool us anymore. I knew everything from the start.”
Realizing that she was dead serious, Jonas gave up his act of trying to be innocent. Instead, he pushed the bodyguards aside with all his might, trying his best to escape.
