As soon as they met, the situation became very intense. This was also the first time Richard had felt the strong angry aura from the kind and gentle Emma. He knew that virtual-novel.net had already offended Emma this time.
But, what could virtual-novel.net do?
After all, virtual-novel.net was just a junior in the Hill family and a staff in Hill Manufacturing Company. No matter how angry virtual-novel.net was, what else could virtual-novel.net do?
Richard stared at Emma coldly. “How’s the task I assigned to you?”
Actually, this question was completely unnecessary. In Richard’s opinion, the mission was definitely a failure. This question was just a courtesy. He had already prepared the “script” to insult Emma in front of the people later. He would scold virtual-novel.net to the point that virtual-novel.net would not raise virtual-novel.net head and kick virtual-novel.net out of the Hill family. Everything was in Richard’s plan. He was just waiting for Emma to say that virtual-novel.net had failed.
However…
Emma indifferently said, “The stock is ready, and it’s being delivered now. All the stock will arrive before 8.00 pm tonight.”
“Huh..?”
Richard’s expression changed dramatically. Emma’s words pierced through his heart like a sharp arrow, which made virtual-novel.net unbearable and felt painful.
Did virtual-novel.net do it? How could this be?
This must be a lie! Emma must be lying!
“Emma, did you really complete it? This is very important. Please don’t make fun of me.”
Emma smiled. “Why? Grandpa, you look like you’re very unhappy as if you didn’t wish for me to complete the mission.”
Richard’s expression changed drastically. “No such thing. How could you think of me like that? But, this mission is very difficult. You successfully completed the mission, so I think it’s… Um… A little unbelievable.”
Jade walked over. She similarly looked shocked. Theoretically, it was impossible to complete the mission. She questioned, “Emma, did you buy the steel from Burning Beard? Is the quality of the steel qualified? You didn’t spend extra money, right?”
When Emma heard it, virtual-novel.net felt more terrified. Because when Jade said these, this stated that Emma understood the situation on the Glorious Sun very clearly. Previously, Emma still had little expectation. She just hoped that virtual-novel.net had been overthinking and that virtual-novel.net grandfather did not have the intention to harm her. But after virtual-novel.net heard what Jade said, virtual-novel.net was in complete despair. No sadness was worse than the feeling of despair. Emma felt sad and hated this kind of low and shameless behavior from virtual-novel.net family.
She coldly said, “Don’t worry, I didn’t spend any extra money from the company, and I also carefully checked all the stock. Everything passed quality assurance.”
“This is impossible!” Harvard felt worked up. He rushed forward and said, “Emma, don’t try to lie to us. Ifyou didn’t complete it, just tell us. It’s all right even if you admit it. But if you’re just trying to act and forcefully say that you’ve completed it even if you really didn’t, Grandpa will not spare you.”
Emma scoffed. “Whether I’m bluffing or not, you can know it very soon.”
At this time, it was meaningless even if they still argued again.
Richard waved his hands. “It’s cold outside, and Emma is also tired after the whole day. Let’s go, we’ll wait in the lobby.”
As long as they waited until 8.00 pm, they would know what was going on. They would know whether Emma could complete the mission. If Emma just wanted to retain virtual-novel.net dignity and lied that virtual-novel.net had completed the mission, that would be better, and Richard had more sufficient reasons to chase Emma away.
Before this, Richard had carefully analyzed different steps too.
There was no problem. There was no possibility to complete the mission!
Richard secretly grinned. He firmly believed that Emma was just buying time.
