Second Chances

Chapter 19 

Emma thought, ‘Liam’s so insecure and must be jealous again. He was not there when Elijah’s parents came at me, and Jack played the hero. Liam’s probably in a bad mood right now. I need to do something about it.’ 

Just then, Liam’s wheelchair stopped. Emma seized the moment, wrapped her arms around him, and hugged him tight. “Did you come back because you got my message and were worried about me being bullied?” She felt his muscles tense under his suit as she hugged him. 

Levi was standing to the side, watching as Liam’s gloomy face turned into a smile the moment Emma hugged him. 

Liam’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he said, “Yes.” 

“Liam, you’re so nice to me!” said Emma. 

Liam didn’t know what to say. Her sweet talk really got to him. He couldn’t be jealous anymore, even if he tried. Liam awkwardly raised his hand and gently lifted her face, looking at her closely. “Are you hurt?” 

Emma shook her head docily. 

Liam’s face eased a bit more, “Don’t worry. I’ll take care of the Taylor family.” 

“Okay,” Emma nodded and just had to give him a kiss on his handsome face. “You really spoil me, Liam. I love you so much!” She knew this always worked on him, so she kept doing it until his anger was eased. 

Liam’s voice became hoarse, and his breathing became heavier. “Don’t do this in public.” 

Emma could see that Liam was expressionless on the surface but was actually very excited inside. “You mean we can do this at home?” 

Liam raised his brow. “Wanna try?” 

Emma dared not continue teasing him and said, “I think I have classes.” 

Liam narrowed his eyes and smiled. “I’ve asked for a day off for you.” 

He was not gonna let her slip away so easily after turning him on. 

After saying that, Liam held Emma onto his lap. Emma didn’t struggle, as she didn’t want to ruin his good mood. 

At this time, they were sitting in the wheelchair, and Levie was bewildered. “Are we…going back to the car, Mr. Liam?” 

“Push my wheelchair,” said Liam faintly. 

Levi was like, ‘Who? Me? Isn’t this an automatic wheelchair? And wouldn’t it be better to let Miss Wilson push you? Why do I have to be here 

and watch your PDA?‘ 

Of course, he didn’t have the nerve to spit it out. He asked with his eyes almost welling up. “You mean, I push the two of you?” 

“Or? How about you sit in the wheelchair, and I’ll push you?” said Liam coldly. “Emma can’t walk. She just got frightened.” 

Levi thought, ‘Man, do you hear what you just said? I’m sure a bit of fright won’t take away her ability to walk!‘ 

Upon arriving at the Icovine Estate, Emma stepped out of the car and was surprised to see a group of reporters gathered around the gate. “What’s happening here?” Emma frowned and noticed that the two people at the front were Mateo and Nora.

Nora immediately rushed over to Emma when she saw her. “Emma, the police are going to the hospital today to arrest Aria. She is your sister. You can’t just sit back and watch her go to jaill Look at her she’s really sorry. Can you bear to send her to jail?” Nora said, taking out her phone and showing Emma a video. 

“Emma, I’m so sorry for everything I’ve done to you, I was young and ignorant. I regret it so much! I’ve lost my baby, and the Taylor family won’t accept me. All I want is not to go to jail. Emma, I’m your sister. Please forgive me and save me!” Aria said in the video. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Emma looked at Aria’s pale face in the video. It was hard to imagine that this was the same demon that pushed her into the fire in her previous life. Emma sneered. “Who am I to forgive? Only the law can judge you. None of us has the right to interfere.” 

In the morning, the Taylor family went to Emma at the school, and now the Wilson family had gone out of their way to come to Liam’s manor. As expected, the atmosphere was already somber as Liam sat aside. 

Just then, a reporter spoke up. “Emma, you married Liam Hall and then watched your family go bankrupt. That’s heartless! No matter what, they are your father and your grandmother. Even if they didn’t raise you, they still gave you life, right? The Hall family is a decent family, Will Liam’s parents accept a heartless woman like you in their family? Please answer my question!” 

Emma asked the reporter back. “The most important thing to be a reporter is to seek truth from facts. What kind of reporter are you if you 

don’t even have the most basic professionalism?” 

The young and reckless reporter raised his camera and snapped a few quick pictures of Emma. “You pushed your sister and caused her miscarriage. Am I wrong about you being heartless?” 

Nora gritted her teeth and stared straight at the reporter. She had paid him to ask tough questions to Emma. He was the only one who dared 

do it in front of Liam, while everyone else was worried about him. 

“Who told you that Emma pushed Aria?” Liam’s face grew more and more serious, and his voice grew colder. He opened the car door and got 

out in his wheelchair, immediately surrounded by the bodyguards at Icovine Estate. However, the reporters were even more excited and swarmed around. Emma even saw one person’s camera bump into Liam. Originally, they wouldn’t dare act so wild around Liam, but today, they were fighting for tomorrow’s headlines. They also knew that Liam could not easily shake them off because of his legs, so they recklessly pestered him. The camera was heavy, and it must have hurt a little when it hit him. 

Emma rushed over and stood in front of Liam, totally forgetting about the camera. Her arms automatically shielded him. She spoke in a tough tone, asking, “What are you doing? Are you out of your mind?” Her strong presence made the reporters take a step back. 

“The police had released the surveillance video, and it clearly showed that Aria fell on her own on purpose. I didn’t want to take it personally because I thought you guys were only doing your job, but now you’re making it harder on yourselves. I always held a grudge. Come over again, and I’ll break your legs,” said Emma. 

The reporters looked at Emma and remained silent. Even the bodyguards were surprised. The reporters that they couldn’t drive away with all 

their efforts were actually scared by Emma and didn’t dare to speak. 

Liam watched Emma’s back with a complex expression as she stood before him. ‘Is she protecting me? It’s not just me protecting her. It 

seems she’s got my back, too. Even though everyone in this world wants me dead, she’s sticking with me despite the cameras,‘ he pondered. 

Liam’s heart skipped a beat. 

It was only after a long time that Liam returned to his senses. He spoke indifferently, “You disgrace your job by distorting facts.” Then he ordered a bodyguard at his side, “Take him.” 

Hearing what he said, the reporter panicked, “What do you mean? What are you going do?” 

A burly man stepped forward and spoke indifferently. “Samuel Taylor, Elijah Taylor’s cousin, a junior in the School of Journalism and Communication, right?” 

Samuel was shocked. “How do you know?”

The bodyguard said, “You’ve been making up scandals about Miss Wilson many times, and Mr. Hall has been on to you for a long time.” He snatched Smauel’s camera with one hand. With a bam, the camera was smashed.
