Kamron stared at Emily in disbelief. Since she was Vincent's girlfriend, why would she hit him? Was it Vincent's intention?
No, that was impossible.
If Vincent was unhappy with him, he would never let a woman take actions.
Moreover, he remained a tie with that person, so why would Vincent take an action against him?
Kamron thought about that again and again but could not find an answer. Then he stood there and stared fixedly at Emily. Although the girl was a little violent, she was really a beauty. Just as he was looking at her, he met Emily's cold gaze. She took a very quick glance at him and didn't stop, as if she had scanned through a row of ordinary tea sets. There was not the slightest hint of sentiment in her eyes.
Kamron's heart was suddenly stirred, and he felt an undefined vexation and depression.
The butler walked out, with a birthday hat on his head. Behind the butler was a row of bodyguards. They stood in front of Eliot. The butler said, "Mr. Eliot, we don't care about the fight between you and Mr. Marquise. However, the fight happened at the Scavo's. If the Buckleys come to blame us, we will still give an explanation."
Eliot nodded, "I'm sorry."
Many people knew that Marquise and he used to be classmates in university. Although the two of them weren't particularly close friends, they still had a quite good friendship. Eliot had probably been angry for too long because Marquise hurt his sister, so he couldn't help but let out his anger today.
The butler smiled, "Mr. Eliot is too serious. What I said just now is not to accuse you, but to tell you that we will handle the matter properly, since it happened in the Scavo's. You need not worry too much."
Eliot was slightly stunned. He raised his head and saw Vincent's assistant Rex walk out. Rex said, "Mr. Eliot, thank your sister very much for saving Mr. Rolando in the pool. He likes Miss Emily very much, so he intends to keep her in the Scavo's for a few more days. He just asked Miss Emily for her consent, and she agreed. Do you see...?"
The crowd had a more heated discussion.
"What? That little retard from the Britt family saved Mr. Rolando?"
"Isn't Mr. Rolando a famous swimmer?"
"Perhaps he's too old to swim?"
"How can a man who swims across the Yangtze River drown himself in the pool?"
"Leg cramp?"
"I find that you are too jealous to admit that Mr. Rolando was saved by a little retard. But this is the truth. If you don't believe that, there is nothing you can do."
The crowd felt that this person's words were reasonable, so they turned around and nodded at him. When they turned around, they saw Ferne, Armando and Randy standing behind them.
"..."
Ferne grinned at them, "Stop looking, or I'll tear your eyeballs out and eat with liquor."
"..."
The crowd trembled and left.
Eliot personally taught Emily swimming, but he never taught her how to save people. He only taught her how to protect herself, and even told her not to save a drowning person, no matter who was young or old and woman or man.
Eliot looked at Emily from afar and felt that there was something different about his sister. He had known everything she did, including what she was thinking, but he didn't know when there seemed to be a distance between her and him. For example, at this moment, he stood far away and couldn't understand what she was thinking.
Emily, dressed in a white dress, walked down the stairs. When she passed by the table, she took a white towel. Everyone held their breath as she walked straight to Eliot and wiped the blood off his hands with the towel.
"Eliot, don't fight in the future, okay?" She lowered her head and spoke in a soft voice.
Eliot took the towel and wiped his hands. Blood dried up on the back of his palm. He raised his hand to touch her head but stopped when he saw the blood in his hands.
He just replied, "Alright."
Pausing for a moment, he raised his head to look at Vincent and then looked at Emily, "Emily, do you like this place?"
Emily nodded.
What Eliot really wanted to ask is whether Emily was afraid of Vincent or not.
He had clearly warned her that Vincent was a jackal that didn't spit out bones. But he was standing in the Scavo's and just had a fight with Marquise. At this moment, he could only force a smile, "Okay."
He suddenly recalled that Emily was sent back by Mr. Vincent after the banquet of the Scavo family last time. Later, on Elsie's birthday banquet, Vincent appeared on Emily's balcony. And then ... the two of them came down together.
He had too many questions to ask, but he suppressed his curiosity. He only whispered to Emily, "Alright, live here for a few days. When do you miss home? I will take you home."
Emily nodded, "I know."
The butler asked some servants to clean up the bloodstains on the ground. Rex asked Eliot to go to the lounge and bandaged the wound. Eliot looked at the back of his hand and said, "I am okay. It is not serious."
This was the second time that Emily had stayed outside overnight, apart from staying in the countryside to catch fireflies. But this was not the countryside, and there were no fireflies here either. Eliot didn't understand why Emily had agreed to stay here. Just because of Mr. Rolando's hospitality?
Mr. Matthew's attitude towards Emily had always been tepid. Did Emily also long for Grandpa's love?
Thinking of this, Eliot's attitude finally softened a little. He said to Emily, "I will go back first. Take good care of yourself. If you are unhappy, you must call Eliot. No matter how late it is, Eliot will answer it."
Emily nodded, "I will."
Eliot looked so wistful as he went away.
Sydnee quickly stuffed the key into Emily's hand when there was no one beside Emily, and she hurriedly said, "Keep it."
Then she also left.
When she arrived at the entrance, Sydnee found that Eliot hadn't left yet. He was standing at the door of his car, with his eyes fixedly staring at the door. When he found it was Sydnee, Eliot was obviously a little disappointed. Then, he hid his emotions again.
Sydnee was also a little embarrassed when she saw Eliot. She didn't expect that he hadn't left yet, so she could only nod and smile as a greeting. Then, she got in the car.
Eliot wasn't an imprudent man. However, because of the affairs of the company and Elsie, he hadn't slept well for a long time. He knew that Marquise would definitely attend Vincent's banquet. Both of them deliberately avoided meeting each other.
Unexpectedly, the bastard Marquise had just broke up with Elsie, and immediately he began to court Miss Sydnee of the Dickerson family. The entire Britt family was in deep trouble because of Elsie. Father and mother hadn't talked with each other for a long time, and the family members hadn't even had a meal at the same table. Eliot couldn't suppress his anger after seeing the disgusting face of Marquise.
The cold wind calmed him down. Eliot suddenly regretted that he had get some innocent people involved.
He watched Sydnee's car drive away before sitting in his own car.. Forget it, he would spare time to apologize in the future.
