Chapter 411: Chapter 411: In Urgent Need of 30 Million
“This is wine, not tea.” Baron Stuart looked at her and raised the confiscated wine glass.
It was only then that Emily Walker remembered that she was pregnant with a baby and shouldn’t touch alcohol.
“What’s wrong with you?” Baron Stuart could feel that there seemed to be something she was hesitant to talk about.
Emily lowered her head, and after a while, she spoke softly, “I-I need 30 million.”
She didn’t want to save Emma Hudson and her children, she wanted to save the only uncle who still cared about her a little.
Helping them this once, she would have no more debts or ties to their family, as if repaying them for taking her in for a few months.
Upon hearing this, Baron Stuart couldn’t help but feel a bit surprised. Throughout their time together, Emily had never asked him for a single cent, and now, not only did she take the initiative, but she also asked for 30 million right away.
30 million wasn’t much to him, but he didn’t know what she needed the money for.
“What do you need so much money for?” He looked at her and asked softly.
Seeing his calm face, Emily thought he was reluctant to give it. “I… ”
Should she tell him about her uncle’s company going bankrupt? But with Baron Stuart’s character, other people’s business failures seemed to have nothing to do with him and wouldn’t move his compassionate heart, would it?
But if she didn’t tell the truth, how could she explain the 30 million?
Baron Stuart remained silent, waiting for her to continue speaking.
“I-I have an uncle who urgently needs 30 million…” As she said this, she felt like she was really with him just for the money.
Emily felt very distressed. It made it seem like she was with him just for the money.
Baron Stuart frowned when he heard her words, then pondered for a moment before slowly saying, “You mean the one who sent you to my bed?”
She would not mention it, but he had forgotten about such a person.
It could be said that thanks to that so-called uncle, he got to know the woman in his arms.
However, Baron Stuart was not a person who would be grateful to others.
He thought the same as Emily.
At the beginning, it was fortunate that she was sent to him instead of someone else. He could not imagine what would have happened to Emily today if she had been given to someone else.
Unable to help herself, Emily raised her head and looked at him with a puzzled expression.
How did he know that it was her uncle and aunt who sent her to his bed?
“You… You’ve known all along?” Emily was stunned.
“Yes, I almost forgot about it, but you reminded me.” It was clear what kind of people they were from the fact they would send their own niece to a stranger’s bed.
Thinking about this, a layer of coldness gradually filled the ink jade-like eyes of Baron Stuart, becoming more and more mysterious and unfathomable.
“So… do you have the 30 million?” Emily raised her head and without noticing the coldness in his eyes, she asked with a blank face.
As he heard her words, Baron Stuart lowered his head. At this time, the coldness in his eyes had already receded, replaced by endless tenderness. “Do you want to help them?”
“Yes.” Emily nodded earnestly.
After all, she had no ability to obtain the 30 million herself, yet still asked him for it.
In fact, if he didn’t want to give it, she wouldn’t insist. At least she did everything she could and didn’t just stand by and watch her uncle’s family suffer without helping.
“I do have 30 million, but if you take it to help those people, I won’t give it to you.” Baron Stuart looked at her, his eyes resolute.
As for those who had almost ruined his woman’s life, Baron Stuart would not help them even if he had money to spare on beggars.
