When Hunter went upstairs, Emily's door was closed.
He was a little hesitant, thinking whether he should knock on that door or not.
He was always the almighty young master of the Jackson family. But now, he didn't even dare to open a door. This seemed a bit…unbelievable.
Liam White came from behind and whispered, "Young master, how about I go take a look at ma'am?"
"What do you want to look at?" Hunter looked displeased.
She was his woman. How could he let others see?
"I, I didn't mean that," Liam was startled by his stern look. My God, how did he understand his words in such a way?
He just saw that the fearless young master didn't even dare to open a door and wanted to help him.
He didn't mean any harm, sob sob!
Hunter finally walked up to that door and raised his hand to knock.
It was his woman's room. He didn't need anyone else to open the door.
There was no response from the person in the room. She ignored him!
Hunter's eyebrows furrowed. In the past, whoever dared to treat him like this, the person would never have the chance to appear in front of him again.
Even Liam was a little worried. Will the young master be so angry that he kicks the door open?
Although the young master usually looked cold and calm, his temper was sometimes very fiery.
But to his surprise, Hunter didn't kick the door. He knocked once more patiently.
Still no response.
Liam was a little uneasy. Ma'am's temper didn't seem to be any better than the young master's.
This was the third time. Hunter knocked on Emily's door. This time, he knocked a little heavier.
The person inside finally walked over. The footsteps were approaching.
Liam let out a sigh of relief. He wanted to hurry back to his room and not interfere with the couple's sweet talk. However, his shoulders suddenly felt a tension, violently, he was pulled over by Hunter.
So, when Emily opened the door, what she saw was a stunned Liam.
"What?" she didn't look friendly. She was in a bad mood tonight.
"I, I…came to greet ma'am, ha, haha…"
Liam felt so awkward that he even got goosebumps. Young master, you…just now who was the one saying boldly that his woman doesn't need anyone else to look at?
Now when ma'am came to open the door, he acted as if he was not part of this, standing at the side and watching indifferently.
But, you're the one who wanted to see ma'am, okay?
But of course, Liam wouldn't dare to expose him. He could only force himself to smile, "Ma'am…"
"No need for you to greet me!" Emily turned around and was about to slam the door shut with force.
A large palm reached out from behind Liam and gently pushed back the door which was about to close.
"Although he is a subordinate, he came to greet you out of goodwill. So why humiliate him like that?"
The tall figure leaned against the door, looked cold and arrogant. But, if you looked closely, you would see a sign of nervousness in his eyes.
Is the young master…afraid of being kicked out by ma'am?
The nervousness in him, Liam could see clearly.
But he didn't understand, why such an arrogant man would want to come and get the cold shoulder?
Right now, ma'am doesn't seem to be easy to deal with at all.
Usually, if something like this happened, the young master would never try to fawn the person. He would have just kicked the person in the face.
Ma'am seemed…a little different to the young master.
Emily looked at Hunter, who was beside the door and snorted, "What does it have to do with you?"
She wasn't trying to humiliate anyone. Liam was just doing what he told him to do and hadn't done anything wrong.
Even if there were anything wrong, Hunter would be the one in the wrong. She wouldn't pick on Liam unreasonably.
She just didn't want to see him and his people. Did he even want to take away that right?
For several times he tried to ask her about it, but what came out from his mouth was a mess even to himself.
But after all, he just wanted to ask a question.
"Does your hand…still hurt?"
"Is this a concern for me, Master Jackson?" she smirked.
Hunter's arrogant pride was hurt again. Why is this woman so ungrateful?
"The old man is holding a family banquet tomorrow. I just don't want you to embarrass me in front of the Jackson family."
"Don't worry, even if I embarrass anyone, it won't be you, Master Jackson!" She reached out her hand and was about to close the door once more.
But his big palm pressed against the door and wouldn't let her keep himself out.
"Get out of my way. I want to rest now!" Emily looked displeased.
"This is my place, and no one is in charge of where I want to go," he not only didn't step out of the way, instead, he walked in.
This was quite a good excuse. It was his villa anyway. The whole area was his, including this room.
"Well, then is it okay if I get out?" she hadn't wanted to stay here tonight anyway. She wanted to go visit Sally Cox.
If Hunter hadn't brought her back, she'd be in the hospital right now.
Hunter glanced at Liam, who was still stunned at the door. Without hesitating, Liam immediately closed the door.
"Liam, what are you doing?" Emily almost wanted to kick the door.
Liam, who was guarding outside, said, "It's getting late. Ma'am and the young master should rest early."
These two, stop tormenting him!
It was not easy to be his assistant. Even when they were quarreling, he had to be the one to reconcile.
Sigh! The young master was so smart and intelligent, why wouldn't he just do it by force?
It's not like him at all to make it so awkward!
