Chapter 14 Andrew is a Waiter

Looking at Mario’s disgruntled expression, Emily was about to burst into laughter. For these past six

months, she finally felt a hint of pleasure.

But she didn’t plan on paying Mario any attention.

“Come on, cousin, I’m begging you. Grandpa and your uncles are all waiting for you. I promise, if you’ll

go, I’ll never talk back to you again. Whatever you tell me to do, I’ll do it.”

The second she heard this, Emily was elated, and said, “Alright, then get out of here!”

Mario’s expression grew dim. He bitterly smiled and asked, “Then, will you come?”

“Get lost!” Emily said in a cold tone.

Mario walked out in a humiliated manner. Right now, he felt like he wanted to kill Emily.

She told him to get lost!

But he didn’t leave right away. Since he was here to beg for Emily’s help, if he wasn’t sincere, there

was no way she’d go to the meeting, and grandpa would definitely skin him alive.

After a while, Emily also came out; she told Mario, “Sometimes, you can’t be too proud as a person.

You might end up asking for help sooner or later as well.”

“What was before won’t always stay the same. I hope you’ll remember well what kind of state you are

in today.”

After she was done speaking, she headed into the Martin family’s conference room.

Mario looked up and glared at Emily. There was no way he’d let Emily off the hook for this.

Emily got a good look at the Martin family. None of them treated her like a member of the family.

The second she entered the conference room, everyone’s expression was odd. Each one looked very

enthusiastic and was full of smiles.

Sure enough, the moment she sat down, grandpa cut to the chase and asked her directly, “Emily, the

reason we called you here today is to ask you when you will go sign the contract with Mr. Fraser. How

come we haven’t seen you these past few days?”

“Yeah, Emily; it’s better to get this settled early; what if they retract on their offer. These days, there’s

word out that our family is getting played.” Eden added.

Emily looked at the two of them, and said bluntly, “Grandpa, didn’t you ask cousin to go sign?”

The second she said this, Brian’s face instantly turned red. He quickly added, “What, that’s not true;

who said so?”

Emily looked at Mario and said, “Him; he said so himself.”

“Wh- wh- what!” Brian threw a death stare over at Mario.

Then he laughed and said, “I was worried that you’d be too tired! So I asked Mario to help you out.

After all, he’s your cousin; he should help you out when he can. We can’t just let him idle around.”

Emily laughed drily in her mind; help her out? Where was he to help her out when she was still working

in the office? Now that she was about to sign the contract, he was here to “help her out”. Never had

she seen a more shameless person.

“Emily, don’t play coy; now’s not the time. Hurry and get the contract signed, that’s the most important

thing right now.”

Emily said, “I’m not going to sign. You guys are quite capable, no? Go sign it yourselves.”

Mario couldn’t stand it anymore; he clenched his fists and was about to speak.

Eden blurted out, “Emily, it’s my fault. Since we’re all family, please, don’t fight with your cousin,

alright?”

Eden never looked up to Emily and always talked down on her. But now, even he knew he had to

soften his attitude.

Emily looked to Brian and said, “Grandpa, I know the Martin family has always taken care of me and

my mother. I don’t want to hassle you all, but I just want to get the respect I deserve.”

Eden butt in and quickly said, “Of course, of course; we’ll definitely respect you from now on. Can you

sign the contract now?”

“I won’t sign just yet; I want to see how you all behave.” Emily learned from Andrew to hold herself in a

higher position of power.

Up to this point, Mario couldn’t hold it in anymore, and he burst out, “Emily, what are you doing?

Everyone in the family is begging you, what more do you want? If I could have signed, would we come

to ask you? It’s because we’re giving you face that we asked you to come. You’ve been living and Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

eating off our family for so long, isn’t it time you contributed a bit to the family?”

“Well, interesting.” Emily said, then stood up and got ready to leave.

This was like a slap to the face to everyone present.

Mario angrily complained, “Grandpa, you see that? This person’s way too defiant, she doesn’t even

respect you. And that’s before signing the contract; imagine what’ll happen after signing the contract.”

“Yeah, dad; Emily is getting way out of league.”

“Let’s wait and see; we still need her, so that’s why she’s acting so arrogant.”

The Martin family’s conference room was filled with the voice of accusations.

“Enough!” Brian shouted out in anger. He took a deep breath and said, “Which one of you has the

ability to sign the contract?”

“Shouting like this, what do you expect to get done? In any way, you all have to convince Emily to sign

the contract within these few days.”

Having said this, Brian got up and left.

Emily let out a long sigh of relief after she left the conference room. Never did she expect that she’d be

able to act high and mighty as she did today.

The Martin family did everything they could to suppress her. Today, she was finally able to retaliate.

In a few days, it would be her birthday; it’d be the first birthday without her father.

It might be a lonely birthday; maybe no one would even remember. But she was determined to be well,

and let her father in heaven rest in peace.

From these past few days, Andrew was able to accomplish two things. The first thing was, Emily’s

birthday was coming up in ten days, so he was planning a big surprise for her. The second thing was to

recover. Right now, he was only at 30% of his full capacity. He became injured on the battlefield during

his fight with the commanders of the seven kingdoms. Also, hearing the news of Peter’s death, he was

incredibly devastated, and it also affected his body’s recovery.

Therefore, he picked out a teahouse with a better atmosphere in K City to recuperate. Today, he

returned again to Wanzhonglou. A waitress carried tea and walked toward Andrew. Suddenly, she

tripped and fell on Andrew. The tea was poured on him as well.

“I, I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry, sir, I didn’t mean to.” The waitress was about to burst into tears as she

apologized.

“Don’t worry.” Andrew replied in a calm manner.

He touched his wet clothes. This was not helpful to remove the blood in his body.

He asked the waitress, “Do you have any dry change of clothes?”

The waitress nodded emphatically and said, “Yes, yes, but only our uniforms.”

“That’s fine; can I borrow a set to wear?” The water on his body obstructed Andrew from unleash his

abilities.

“Alright, right away.” The waitress hurried to retrieve a set of uniform in the worker’s lounge.

After he got changed, Andrew continued to expel the blood inside him.

Meanwhile, as Emily was out shopping, she suddenly received a text message.

She looked at her phone; her best friend Mary sent a photo and a string of voice messages.

The photo was a waiter. Upon a closer look, the waiter was Andrew, and he was at the Wanzhonglou.

Emily was shocked at that Andrew was taking a part time job as a waiter.

No wonder he always headed out early in the morning these past few days.
