Chapter - 120

Emily’s mind was all over the place when she heard her mother’s instruction. “Mom, I’m just someone else’s employee! It’s gonna take forever for me to gather a hundred million!”

Madeleine suggested, “You’re a procurement specialist of the Schneider family, aren’t you? Why don’t you make use of a hundred million from the Schneider family? “We’ll return the hundred million to them once we’ve acquired Hamilton Construction!”

Emily felt extremely dejected.

Embezzlement of a hundred million? If it’s exposed by someone else, I’ll have to spend the rest of my life behind bars!

Mom’s overly biased! How can she put me at stake to fulfil Sam’s greed?

Emily sighed as she had no audacity to engage in such a risky activity, “Mom… I can’t possibly…”

A brand new Rolls Royce Shadow stopped in front of their house before Emily could finish her sentence.

Adam and Jeremy walked out of the car once it had been brought to a halt.

Madeleine and Emily were dumbfounded by the scene in front of them.

What the hell is going on? How did they afford such a luxurious vehicle?

It’s a Rolls Royce Shadow worthy of fifty million!

Why are they here in such a luxurious vehicle?

Jeremy rushed over and shook Madeleine’s hand enthusiastically, “Mrs. Clemons, thank you so much! You’re the one who saved my father! We’re here to express our gratitude!”

Madeleine was confused because Zeke had been the one who had saved Adam.

What? It has nothing to do with me! It was Zeke!

However, Jeremy winked and signalled her to play along with his eyes.

Madeleine realized something must have been going on behind the scene and decided to play along with Jeremy. “It’s nothing! I’m merely carrying out my duty as a fellow doctor! You don’t have to return the favour!”

Adam reached for the envelope he had brought along with him and handed it over to Madeleine, “Mrs. Clemons, we can’t possibly express our gratitude through words! “Here’s ten thousand for you! Please accept our token of gratitude!”

Ten thousand in return for treatment!

Madeleine and Emily’s minds were blown away once again because they couldn’t figure out the reason behind Adam’s generosity all of a sudden.

Emily realized they might have had been bestowed by a fortune when she recalled the existence of the luxurious vehicle worthy of fifty million they had arrived in!

She asked immediately, “Mr. Hinton, it seems like you’re having the best time of your life lately! What sort of lucky encounter have you run into?”

“Adam replied humbly, “We’re not lucky! Lily s the lucky one!”

“Lily’s the lucky one?” Emily cast a sceptical gaze at Lily, who had an arrogant smile on her face.

Jeremy explained, “The Williams family from Atheville has a thing for Lily. Hence, they have presented us with gifts worthy of two hundred million in the morning!”

Once again, Jeremy’s words blew Emily and Madeleine’s minds away.

The Williams family from Atheville… One of the top conglomerates of Eurasia…

A descendant from the upper echelon has a thing for someone like Lily?

They’ve presented them wedding gifts worthy of two hundred million?

She must have been blessed by their ancestors, right?

Adam replied, “This Rolls Royce is one of the gifts presented to us by the Williams family. We’ve decided to drop by to express our gratitude since Lily has brought us out for a walk!”

Although they said they were there to express their gratitude, it was, in fact, an attempt to show-off in disguise.

Adam had no intention to stay around anymore since they had achieved the goals they had in mind. They departed right after they finished sharing the great news they had.

Emily felt extremely dejected because Lacey and Lily used to please her back in the day.

However, they had gotten ahead of her in life ever since they ran into the right one in their lives.

She was the only one who had gotten nowhere further in life.

Hence, she felt extremely dejected whenever she compared herself to others.

Emily heaved a long sigh. Perhaps that’s my destiny in life…

Madeleine whispered, “Emily, do you think the Hinton family will lend us a hundred million if we try to borrow it from them?”

Emily replied with a bitter smile, “Mom, stop being hopeful. I’m sure you know the Hinton family better than me, right? They’ve always been a stingy bunch!”

Madeleine replied, “We’re merely borrowing it from them! We’re not asking them to give it to us!”

“If worse comes to worst, we’ll give them some of Hamilton Construction’s shares once we get our hands on it! They’ve always been known as a greedy bunch too! I’m sure they will give in to our request!”

Emily thought about it for a moment. “I guess you’re right! Alright, mom! I’ll get in touch with them soon!”
