Chapter 220 - Look Like Gay Men 1

Maury had been lying in bed for four whole days. He felt that he was in a good mental state, so he got out of bed and planned to go to work. But he was stopped by Eliot. "Dad, mom and I will take care of the company. Don't worry. Rest at home for a few more days."

Maury looked at Emily and remembered that he hadn't fulfilled his promise to take her out for fun. He blinked at her. "Alright, then I'll stay at home for another two days."

After Eliot left, Maury immediately got out of bed and got dressed. He then said to Emily, "Go out quietly first and wait for Dad at the door."

Emily understood what he was going to do. She smiled, "Alright."

Elsie went to school today. Emily didn't need to avoid her and went downstairs directly. When Harold saw her at the door, he immediately said, "Beverly has gone out. The thing you told me to keep an eye on has made progress...."

Emily paused for a moment before figuring out what Harold was talking about. She asked, "Her lover?"

Harold nodded. "Beverly has seen him twice."

Emily smiled. "Very good. Where has she gone?"

Harold gave Emily an address.

After Maury drove out, he saw Emily coming with Harold. Maury wanted to say that there was no need for Harold to keep their company, but Harold opened the driver's seat door and said, "I'll drive."

Maury thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. He got out of the car and sat in the back seat with Emily. Then he asked her, "Are you satisfied with this bodyguard?"

Emily nodded. "He's good."

Maury didn't know how she defined this. He just said, "As long as he can take good care of you."

Somehow, Maury found Emily was no different from a normal child in the past few days. Moreover, she was even more outstanding than Elsie in every aspect, such as temperament. When she stood there in silence, no one would fail to notice her. Perhaps she learned it with Vincent. Otherwise, Maury didn't know how to explain this phenomenon.

The car quickly drove to an amusement park. Before entering, Emily pointed at the café and said, "I want to drink that!"

Maury reminded her. "It's very bitter. You won't like it."

Emily pursed her lips, as if she longed for the coffee. Maury could only take her inside. The café laid emphasis on privacy. Wooden boards separated it into many private rooms, which extended to the innermost part of the café.

Maury sat in the hall and waited for the waiter to serve coffee. However, Emily ran to the corridor of the private room and looked at the portrait hanging on the wall with curiosity.

Not long after, Maury came over with a cup of coffee. Coincidentally, a private room door opened. Beverly walked out from inside with a smile on her face. When she saw Maury, she stiffened with fear.

Emily was happy secretly, but she looked innocent. She shouted at Beverly and the man following behind her. "Hello, Beverly."

Maury was stunned. But he calmly asked, "Is he a client?"

Beverly's expression finally returned to normal. "Yes, I told you before that he is Daniel Brooks, the manager of Marketing Department of Prosperity Group...."

"His is surnamed Brooks as well?" Maury looked up. Daniel was in his forties and looked younger than him.

"Yes, that's right. What a coincidence. We have the same surname." Beverly smiled embarrassedly.

Emily stole a glance at Daniel. Middle-aged, he wasn't bald, nor did he have a beer belly. His skin was well maintained, looking younger than Maury. It wasn't hard to tell how handsome he was when he was young. Emily felt that he was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him before.

"Then go back to your work. I'll take Emily to have fun." Maury stretched out his hand and pulled Emily out.

Beverly exhaled heavily, watching them walk away. Then, she looked at Daniel and let out a long sigh of relief, "I was almost scared to death just now...."

Daniel smiled and held her waist. "Nothing to be afraid of. I'm here with you."

Beverly patted his hand away and said, "Don't come on me in public to avoid being discovered."

Daniel hugged her and said, "So what? I hug my lover. It had nothing to do with Maury."

Even though s, Beverly knew how dangerous this action was, her heart was throbbing like a girl. She liked Daniel's domineering side.

Maury took Emily all the way to the amusement park. He bought tickets, brought her in, and told her to sit on a merry-go-round. Then he called Eliot, "Have we been cooperating with Prosperity Group recently?"

Eliot remembered that this group was recommended by Beverly half a month ago. "Yes. What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Maury hung up the phone, hoping he was thinking too much.

Emily sat on the merry-go-round and looked at Maury's expression. Although she felt guilt for her father, she wanted to continue, even if she would hurt him and Eliot in the end or ... destroy the family.

Although Maury was a little suspicious, when he arrived at the company the next day and saw that there was indeed a cooperative relationship with Luo Feng Group, he dispelled his doubts. Ever since Maury caught Beverly, she no longer dared to meet Daniel privately. They did not see each other for several days.

Matthew returned. He would occasionally live outside for a period of time. He stayed at home for a very short period of time, but there would always be something unpleasant happening when he returned.

After knowing that Emily was back, he called her to the study and asked her some questions, all of which were about why Vincent kept her in his place. Besides, Matthew asked what Vincent usually did and if he had spoken to her. Matthew wished that Vincent would fall in love with this stupid granddaughter, so that the Britts could rise to prominence because of Emily.

Emily kept talking incoherently for a long time so that Matthew lost his patience. He waved his hand and let her leave. When she left, he called Elsie over to say something.

Later, the lights in Elsie's room were on all the time, as if she was choosing clothes.

December 6th was Vincent's birthday.. The birthday banquet was held at the famous Garden Hotel in City Y.
