Chapter 352 - 352: Warning: Part 1
Mrs. Ward reminded her,
“Three years ago, Emma was 15 years old, but she’s 18 now. She’s not a child anymore, is she? At the very least, she’s an adult who can take responsibility before the law.”
This was a warning to Mrs. Watson. If Emma committed another crime, she would send her to prison without hesitation and let Emma receive the punishment she deserved.
Mrs. Wade hung up the phone, and Mrs. Watson sat on the sofa, feeling a little weak.
She didn’t expect that Mrs. Wade would dig up the incident of falling into the water from three years ago.
At that time, a cleaner’s daughter fell into the lake. Emma and her two friends were playing next to her, and they were seen bullying the girl, so they were thought to be related to the fall.
But at that time, Emma’s group of three claimed that they were innocent. They didn’t know the girl who fell into the water at all, and they didn’t touch her. She fell into the water while picking up a plastic bottle floating on the lake.
At that time, the words and actions of the three people were actually somewhat contradictory. However, because the girl who fell into the water was born with a lack of intelligence, and she was shocked by the fall, she couldn’t say a complete sentence, let alone describe the process of her falling into the water.
Therefore, the couple chose to believe Emma’s words, thinking that the girl’s family wanted to extort her. In order not to affect Emma’s reputation, they could only admit that she was unlucky and spend a sum of money to suppress this matter.
However, from what Mrs. Wade had said, it was obvious that she had some evidence, but it wasn’t publicly available because it hadn’t caused a major accident at the time.
However, Mrs. Watson still couldn’t believe that her daughter would do such a thing. She raised her head and looked at her husband, who was pacing around the house with his cell phone in his hand. It was obvious that he hadn’t been very successful in contacting the Le family.
She gulped and calmed her flustered emotions. Before things became clear, she didn’t want her husband to hear about the drowning incident three years ago.
Because her husband had always wanted her to return to the family, to be a
housewife and raise her children, but this obviously didn’t fit Mrs. Watson’s ideal, so she refused.
Because of this, the couple had a lot of disagreements, and their relationship only eased after they saw their three children grow up healthily.
If he found out that there was a big problem with Emma’s education, he would definitely push all the blame on her and deprive her of her power in the company. This wasn’t a situation that Mrs. Watson was happy to see. She composed herself, then stood up and walked to her husband.
“I’ve just contacted Mrs. Wade. She’s indeed on good terms with the Le family, and she’s completely convinced by the other party’s words. She’s going to stand on the Le family’s side, so we have to think of a countermeasure in advance.” Mrs. Watson said, half-jokingly.
But obviously, Mr. Watson wasn’t a person who was easy to fool since he had achieved good results in the business world. He stared at his wife and asked,
“Tell me, does Emma have a habit of taking drugs?
“How’s that possible?” Mrs. Watson retorted in a sharp voice.
She paused for a moment, and her tone softened a little.
“Don’t you know what kind of character Emma has as her father? Although she was indeed a little arrogant now, she hadn’t picked up these bad habits. At the very least, whenever I see her, she’s always been very well-behaved. As her father, have you ever seen her get into any bad habits?”
As Mrs. Watson tried to absolve her daughter of her mistake, she also secretly reminded her husband that as a father, he was responsible for raising his daughter.
Mr. Watson had not seen his daughter’s bad habits, so he hadn’t expected this to happen. Now that the Le family was so unyielding, Mrs. Wade believed in the Le family’s words.
They weren’t afraid of revealing the matter to show their confidence. It must be that Emma’s side had left something in their hands.
Mr. Watson flicked his hair in frustration. call Emma again and ask her to answer honestly what happened at the party tonight.
As for Emma, she thought that after she complained to her parents, they would help her teach the Le family a lesson and avenge her.
Unexpectedly, after complaining, she received several phone calls from her parents, one of which inexplicably involved the Wade family, asking if she had offended anyone from the Wade family..
