Yes!How could I forget about Mark Johnson's son?After their divorce,the child had been living with Emily.He must know more than Mark Johnson.If he was willing to help,it would be much easier for me.
I was racking my brains thinking about how to get him to help when the young man who was dressed extremely simply last time came out,carrying a bag of garbage.Through the street lamp,I finally saw his face clearly.He looked somewhat similar to Emily.
"Another fool who was deceived."
This sentence was like a fuse,instantly igniting my anger.I pointed at him.
"What do you mean?Are you calling me an idiot?"
He saw my anger and realized that he might have said the wrong thing.He immediately explained.
"I'm not calling you an idiot.This is the truth.This woman is a liar.She brings back different men every once in a while and asks for money for various reasons.When your wallet is emptied,she'll leave you."
He was so familiar with Emily.Last time I came,he had called Emily mom.Could he be Emily and Mark Johnson's son?I pestered him relentlessly and confirmed his identity,and then asked for his contact information.
I wanted to talk to him more,but when I looked at the time,I realized that I had been out for a long time.I couldn't arouse the suspicion of her family yet.Thinking of this,I immediately walked back to Emily's house.
As soon as I entered the house,Emily started to mock me in a sarcastic tone.
"Who were you flirting with?You didn't come back for so long."
I snorted and imitated her tone.
"Do you not trust me that much?I just went out to smoke a cigarette.There's no flirting with other girls."
She seemed to be angry that I imitated her.She said harshly.
"Ethan Lewis,you're not sleeping with me tonight!You go sleep on the sofa.You actually dare to bully me in my house!"
After Emily's parents received the 400,000-dollar bride price,they didn't dare to say much and comforted me kindly.
"Lovers'quarrels will be over in a few days."
I couldn't have been happier not to sleep with her.After the three of them fell asleep,I took out my phone and sent a message to Mark Johnson.
"As far as I know,Emily has deceived many other people.Mr.Johnson,please contact the media.We can expose all this.When the time is right,I'll send her to prison."
I waited for a long time,but Mark Johnson didn't reply.He must have fallen asleep.It was getting late,and I couldn't resist the sleepiness either.I slowly fell asleep.
When I woke up,I opened my phone.Mark Johnson still hadn't replied.At this time,Emily also woke up.She walked to her parents'room to discuss something.
Not long after,she walked back to me and touched my face with her hand.
"Honey,let's take a plane back.I've already booked the tickets.Driving back is too tiring,and I feel sorry for you."
My heart sank suddenly.I could only hope that Mark Johnson had done everything well.
I held her hand,with fake happiness in my eyes.
"I was mean to you last night,but you still think so carefully for me.I'm sorry,honey.Emily,you really love me."
Emily smiled gently.
"Of course I'm sincere to you."
She was saying sweet words,but I knew clearly in my heart that she was only after my money.
We drove to the airport.The plane was delayed for two hours due to snow.We were waiting in the boarding hall,and Emily fell asleep on my shoulder.I observed her carefully.
She was really beautiful,with long eyelashes,big eyes,thin lips,and a petite face.She looked both pitiful and cute.Thinking of her clingy appearance usually,in fact,I hoped more than anyone that this was all false.
