Chapter 372 Just Trust Her

Hunter was still eating, ignoring Emily’s words.

Emily bit her lip, not willing to give up.

“Hunter, you said that Grandma was the person you respected the most. Don’t you want to know about
her …”

“You’re full, aren’t you?”

The man finally spoke, but he didn’t catch a glimpse of her at all.

Emily suddenly felt sad in her heart.

She could no longer find anyone in the Jackson family to rely on.

Patriarch would not agree to dig the lake again.

Hunter was her only hope!

“Hunter, the matriarch’s death is unclear. You have the responsibility to give her justice!”

Hunter put down his chopsticks and his expression darkened.

“When the accident happened, were you not the only one on the scene?”

Emily was dumbfound. What did he mean?

Did he still not believe her until now? Did he still think it was related to her?

“It’s not me!” She tightened her grip on the embroidered tablecloth, her fingertips trembling slightly.

“If you don’t believe me, you can dig up the lake.”



“Since you’re full, then go up, take a shower and wait for me.”

“Hunter …”

“Bring her up.” Hunter’s indifferent words were absolute orders here.

In order to prevent him from getting even angrier, Liam immediately put down his chopsticks and
walked to Emily.

“Miss Emily, please go upstairs.”

Emily stared at Hunter’s calm eyes.

She was still unwilling to give up. Did he really not want to know what had happened at that time?

Or was it that he had already decided that she was the murder?

“Hunter.”

“Miss Emily, I’ll send you up!”

Liam’s voice grew louder, trying to stop Emily, lest Hunter should be angry.

His temper was worse than Emily knew now.

“Please don’t make things difficult for me!” Liam said in a deep voice.

Emily bit her lip and finally left.

That night, he returned to his room at ten o’clock.

Just after taking a shower, he threw Emily on the bed.



She lay on the bed and did not resist at all. However, she did not give up persuading him.

“Why aren’t you willing to give it a try? He’s your favorite grandmother!”

The man behind her did not say anything. He just threw the bathrobe on a chair beside him.

Emily gritted her teeth and silently endured his rage.

He was more terrifying than ever before. He almost tore her into pieces when they made out.

Finally, she couldn’t help but burst into cries. “Why?”

No one answered her.

But she actually knew that he was just punishing her.

He was furious because she sat together with Manson and act intimate with other men.

He was petty in some aspects.

She hurt.

She grabbed the sheets beneath her and began to sob.

…

Sunlight shone on the bed through the French window.

The girl under the blanket slowly opened her eyes and immediately closed them.

Emily couldn’t adapt to the strong light.

After a while, she opened her eyes again and saw everything in the room clearly.



Hunter left.

There was his smelling in the air, but she couldn’t feel his temperature on the sheets.

She hurt all over her body.

Emily grabbed the blanket and sat up with all strength.

She wanted to wash her face, but she didn’t have the strength.

Looking at the empty room, she was suddenly drowned in a sense of despair.

He didn’t trust her. No matter what she said or did, he wouldn’t believe her again!

He would never believe her.

She had tried best to control herself, but finally tears rolled down her face.

In the early morning, Emily was alone in the room. It was so cold that the sunlight could not bring her
warmth.

She sat on the bed and put her arms around her legs. She was crying silently.

However, she was crying hard, but she did not know why she was crying.

She had hurt him so much that he thought she had betrayed her.

Wasn’t it the most normal thing that he did not trust her?

It would be a miracle if he trusted her.

However, how would a miracle happen?



The so-called miracles were only things that desperate people could come up with to comfort
themselves.

She no longer believed it.

She raised her hand and wiped her tears from her face.

Her tears hadn’t dried up yet, but she had calmed down.

She told herself to stop crying, because tears have no value here.

She lifted the blanket and slowly got off the bed.

When she stood on the ground, her legs were so painful that she almost fell down.

That beast!

When he went crazy, he was simply not a human!

She hurt so much.

It was only three months. When the agreement ended, everything would be over.

Emily washed her face and brushed her teeth before she went downstairs.

After having some snacks, she walked out of the hall and into the courtyard.

Everyone was busy while she was bored.

She felt sick today and was not in a good mood, either.

Even if she went back to read, she wouldn’t be able to fix her attention on books.



Then, Emily walked out of the WongRiver Pavilion.

She got on the sightseeing bus and drove towards the Jackson Group’s backyard.

The closer she got to the backyard, the more she felt that it was strange today.

Why was there such a loud noise from the backyard? It seemed a big project.

The closer she got to the backyard, the louder the noise was.

There were a lot of people, and it seemed to be very lively.

Was it the place where the accident happened? What were they doing?

Emily stopped the sightseeing bus, endured the pain and walked towards the filled lake.

Along the way, she could meet many servants who came over from that direction.

“What’s going on over there? What’s everyone doing?” She grabbed one of them and asked in a low
voice.

The new maid didn’t know Emily.

Hearing the question, she replied, “Young Master Hunter is digging up the lake.”

“Digging?”

“Yeah, I heard that it was a lake before. I don’t know why it was filled up, but now, it’s going to be dug
up again.”

The maid didn’t understand what the rich people were things. She thought it would waste a lot of
money to fill it up and dig it up again.



However, the Jackson family was really rich.

No one cared about money at all.

Emily couldn’t remember when the maid left.

The words of the maid lingered in her mind all the time. She were thinking that the lake was about to be
dug up.

Hunter wanted to dig up the lake that had been filled up!

He was digging up the lake!

Ignoring the pain in her legs, she quickly walked over.

When Emily saw the tall figure standing in the sunlight, she could feel the warmth hidden behind his
chilly back. She couldn’t help but cover her lips and tears rolled down her cheeks.

It turned out that there really was a miracle in this world.

It turned out that miracles were not the thing that desperate people came up with to comfort
themselves.

A miracle had appeared in her life.

She leaned against a tree and covered her lips tightly.

At the most painful times, her tears would roll out of her eyes, but she would try her best to not cry.

Now, she couldn’t help but cry when she looked at that figure.

Hunter, what kind of person were you?



He would make her desperate, but also give her the greatest hope.

She knew that he did this for the sake of the matriarch.

But at least, he believed her!

As long as he trusted her, it was enough!
