Secretly Married to a Wealthy Husband

Chapter 635: Chapter 635: To Avoid Burning Oneself by Playing with Fire
 

Seeing her stop, the man smirked.

Then he extended his arms, reaching for Emily Walker’s neck…

Feeling the man’s breath approaching, Emily widened her eyes and instinctively reached out her hand to block his touch—

“You have something on your back that you didn’t remove.” Thomas Emiliano chuckled as he spoke.

Listening to him, Emily was taken aback, and her action to block him also stiffened.

Something? What kind of stuff?

Thomas Emiliano stretched his arm towards the back of Emily’s neck.

Not far away, at the corner spot, Thomas Emiliano glanced up and saw a tall figure standing there. He smirked at the corner of his mouth, and his face suddenly leaned towards Emily’s left side.

The stranger’s breath slowly approached, waking Emily up instinctively as she forcefully pushed the man away.

This man clearly had malicious intentions!

“What do you want—”

Emily was furious and was about to burst into a rant.

“You didn’t remove the tag.” Thomas Emiliano spoke as he raised the tag he had just taken out from the invisible zipper behind her.

Looking at the tag, Emily hesitated for a moment.

So he was helping her remove the tag, but was it necessary to get that close?

Emily frowned at him, but she had to admit he had helped her.

It would indeed be embarrassing if she went to the Grand Hall like that and was seen by others.

“Thank… Thank you.”

The man smirked as his gaze swept past her and glanced at the man behind her.

There was a clear sound of footsteps and leather shoes tapping on the ground from behind. Emily couldn’t help but look back, only to discover Baron Stuart approaching.

…When did Baron Stuart start standing there?

A pair of deep, unfathomable black eyes coldly stared at the man opposite. The aura surrounding him seemed to be invaded by coldness, congealing everything.

Baron Stuart’s face showed endless coldness, while Thomas Emiliano’s face still wore a light laugh.

Then, Baron Stuart also smirked. “Mr. Cairo, there are some things that we shouldn’t do excessively, or we might end up getting burned. Don’t you think so?”

Thomas Emiliano smiled, “Of course, whatever Young Lord says is right. However,” his gaze shifted to the woman in Baron Stuart’s arms, “Isn’t there a saying—better to die beneath the peony flowers and be a flirtatious ghost?”

Baron Stuart smirked, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes, “It’s just that, Mr. Cairo, you might not die beneath the peony flowers.”

Emily, on the side, didn’t understand the conversation between the two men at all.

She looked at Thomas Emiliano in front of her and then glanced at Baron Stuart beside her.

Was it her illusion? Although both men had smiles on their faces, why did she sense a hint of gunpowder?

The words had an obvious cautionary tone. Glancing at the man in front of him, Baron Stuart took Emily and turned to leave.

Watching the departing figures, the smile on Thomas Emiliano’s lips became even more unrestrained.

Originally, he just wanted to have a good play, but now the game seemed more and more interesting.

Just as he was enjoying himself in secret, his expression suddenly darkened.

“Who’s there, come out.”

Thomas Emiliano turned around. In the light not far away, a curvy figure emerged, clearly a woman.

The figure approached, and as the light came closer, the woman’s appearance gradually revealed itself from the shadows.

“Lady Vivian Ferguson.”

–

They walked towards the Banquet Hall, and not far away, Bella Stuart spotted the two coming down the stairs and excitedly ran over.

“It’s Brother and Emily!”

As Bella Stuart spoke, Vivian Ferguson beside her turned her gaze as well and followed her over.
