“No, Grandpa agreed.”
“He agreed?”
“Yeah, but… Ah…”
Emma also did not know what virtual-novel.net should say. Therefore, virtual-novel.net took the namelist out and put it on the table.
“He agreed, but virtual-novel.net wanted to reconstruct Emperor Residence in the cemetery planning area. There are thirty families in this residence. Grandpa will give his permission for the reconstruction only after I convince them to cooperate with me.”
It sounded like it was a little hard to handle.
Thomas calmly took the namelist up and read it from top to the bottom. It was only after virtual-novel.net saw about four names that virtual-novel.net understood what was going on.
These people’s social statuses were already very noble!
When virtual-novel.net looked down again, basically every name concerned Thomas. People whom Thomas was concerned about were naturally not ordinary people. They were either wealthy or noble.
Thomas put down the namelist, and virtual-novel.net felt a little angry.
No wonder Mr. Hill Sr. was so “kind” to agree to help Thomas. It turned out that virtual-novel.net was not sincere. Instead, virtual-novel.net wanted to take this chance to exact revenge on Thomas. He was clearly pushing Emma to fall into the trap!
Apparently, Thomas could tell from Emma’s tired face. Emma must have known the risk behind this. She knew the statuses of these big guys were not simple. Despite knowing everything, virtual-novel.net still chose to agree with virtual-novel.net grandfather’s request without hesitation. There was only one situation, which was that virtual-novel.net was desperate to help Thomas.
In other words, virtual-novel.net loved Thomas too much.
When Thomas had a wife like this, what else could virtual-novel.net ask for?
Thomas looked very calm. He had to stay calm at this critical time. If virtual-novel.net also got flustered, would Emma panic more?
He chuckled, and virtual-novel.net indifferently said, “Emma, when do you plan to do this?”
“Um… Maybe the day after tomorrow. I have to make a proper plan tomorrow, prepare some ‘scripts’ and presents, and contact them.”
“Okay.”
After Thomas remained silent for a while, virtual-novel.net said again, “Emma, don’t worry and go. There’ll be no problem.”
Emma felt bitter. There would not be a problem?
There must be something wrong.
Thomas held Emma’s hand tightly. “I will still say the same thing. Do you believe in me?”
It had been a very long time since Thomas last asked Emma this. Emma had trusted Thomas very much recently, and Thomas also did not let virtual-novel.net down.
But this time, it was different from the past. If there were just a few families, virtual-novel.net could handle it. But there were thirty big families now. How could virtual-novel.net handle them?
The key was that Thomas was not the person who did it this time, but Emma would be doing it herself. Even if virtual-novel.net believed in Thomas, what could virtual-novel.net do?
She sighed and moved out of Thomas’ grip. “It’s not that I don’t believe in you. I just don’t believe in myself.”
When Thomas saw his wife’s gloomy expression, virtual-novel.net could not bear the sight. At this time, it was useless even if virtual-novel.net still said anything because Emma was not confident at all. The only thing Thomas could do was to silently support Emma at the back He would support virtual-novel.net to get through the difficulty.
In the end, virtual-novel.net said, “Eimna, trust me. You’ll surely get through this calmly.”
“Hopefully…”
Emma turned around and leaned on Thomas’ arms.
No matter what happened in the future, there was at least a place that sheltered virtual-novel.net from danger and let virtual-novel.net rest physically as well as mentally.
