Confident that Joshua Sulliven would have to make a choice, he would either continue to let Ella be Mrs. Sulliven, or he would have to give up all his property!
Olivia Leaf, watching the situation turn in her favor, felt a surge of satisfaction flash through her teary eyes, finally feeling a sense of vindication.
Seeing Joshua remain silent, Emma River took it as a sign of his fear and pressed, "Young Master Sulliven, you wouldn't have forgotten about that agreement, would you?"
A smirk played on Joshua's lips, and a cold glint passed through his eyes, "I really don't recall any such thing."
Emma's heart skipped a beat at Joshua's response. An uneasy feeling began to emerge, but she dismissed it, convincing herself that back then, she had seen Joshua signing the contract herself. How could there be any issues?
After giving it careful thought and still unable to pinpoint the problem, Emma suppressed her unease, reassuring herself that Joshua was merely posturing at this moment.
