This was the first time that Uncle Li had lost his temper with Emily Hart since she was a child, and it dealt a heavy blow to her young heart. Until she came to the table, her wounded heart had not healed for a long time.
"Xin'er, are you still angry with Uncle Li?" Alexander Knight could see what the girl was feeling, and his voice became softer and softer.
"Uncle Li, what gift are you going to give me for my eighteenth birthday?" Emily Hart wiped away her tears and looked up at the evil and arrogant man in front of her.
"In Uncle Li's heart, eighteen is not your coming-of-age ceremony. Only when you are twenty, you will truly grow up. Then, Uncle Li will give you a big surprise." There was a strange flash in Alexander Knight's deep black eyes, which disappeared in an instant. He stretched out his hand and slid it across Emily Hart's cheek.
"Big surprise? Uncle Li, I don't like the gifts you give me anymore. You give me something every birthday. You give me a piano so I can keep playing it, and you give me painting tools so I can keep learning to paint. You're not giving me a gift, you're forcing me."
Emily Hart grabbed Uncle Li by the collar, pouted her lips playfully, and kept shaking her head, ready to fight to the end.
"Little girl, when did you become so clever?" Alexander Knight smiled wickedly and pinched Emily Hart's little face lovingly.
"Uncle Li, you said you wouldn't let me climb into your bed in the middle of the night. Is it because I have an aunt, so Xin'er can't sleep with you?"
Emily Hart asked blankly, blinking her charming eyes.
Alexander Knight's face suddenly turned cold, "You want me to find you an aunt?"
"Of course I hope so. If Uncle Li gets married and has kids, then I'll have a lot of fun and won't be bored alone in the castle." Emily Hart clapped her hands excitedly, looking forward to having a little baby in the castle.
"Since our Xin'er likes children, Uncle Li will reluctantly give you a child." Alexander Knight's black eyes were teasing, and his big hands stroked Emily Hart's flat belly.
"Uncle Li, what are you talking about!" Emily Hart's cheeks turned red. She didn't like Uncle Li teasing her like this.
"Xin'er..."
Looking at the cute little person in his arms, with rosy cheeks, skin as white as snow, and flustered eyes, it makes people have the illusion of wanting to pity her very much, and Alexander Knight can't help but be dazzled.
"Uncle Li, don't do this, I don't like you doing this!" Emily Hart got up from the man's arms, turned around and ran out of his sight. Uncle Li's gaze was too hot, making her feel very uncomfortable.
Watching the little girl's running back, Alexander Knight's forehead was covered with sweat. He thought that perhaps it was his hot breath that burned the ignorant girl.
Emily Hart ran all the way, ran into the room, hurriedly closed the door, and squatted down panting.
Uncle Li, what happened?
Even though she was still young, she understood the subtle changes in men. She could see Uncle Li's heavy breath and hot body clearly, and her heart became heavy and suppressed.
As far as she can remember, she has been living with Uncle Li. She has no parents. Uncle Li said that both his parents passed away when she was very young. He has become the closest relative in her life, but it is only family affection.
Uncle Li's reaction today really frightened her. He was her uncle, how could he...
"Ding Ding—"
Emily Hart received a text message reminder. She hurriedly took it out to check. It was a message from her classmate Rachel Cooper - "Little love, I'll take you to a nice place tonight. See you at KK Empire. Don't break the promise."
Emily Hart deleted the text messages in a hurry after reading them. Uncle Li did not allow her to have any contact with the outside world. Every time she chatted with her classmates secretly, she would then delete everything as if nothing had happened.
Originally, Emily Hart never dared to disobey Uncle Li's orders, let alone sneak out to play. But today she was in a bad mood, and Uncle Li treated her like that, which made her intend to sneak out.
"Li, Uncle Li..."
Emily Hart had just made up her mind and opened the door when she found Uncle Li standing at the door. She was so panicked that she tightly grasped her cell phone, fearing that Uncle Li would discover her little secret.
"Take it out!" The man's voice was cold and unyielding.
"Uncle Li, no, it's nothing, I just checked the time." Emily Hart didn't dare to look directly at the tall and mighty man in front of her and could only lower her head timidly.
"Oh, really?" Alexander Knight held Emily Hart's hand, took the phone from her, checked it for a long time, and when he found nothing unusual, he calmed down again, "Xin'er, you are not allowed to contact people from the outside world. Some people approach you for a purpose, understand?"
"Uncle Li, I remember everything you said, and I will definitely obey you." Emily Hart narrowed her beautiful eyes and nodded obediently.
"I have something tonight and will be back late. You should go to bed early. If you are scared, let Mrs. Carter stay with you for a while." Alexander Knight smiled comfortably when he saw the obedient Emily Hart and rubbed her seaweed-like black hair.
"Well, Uncle Li, you can go out and do your work. I'm not afraid." Emily Hart secretly thought about her own little plan. If Uncle Li came back later, she could sneak out and play with her classmates for a while longer.
Alexander Knight could see that something was wrong with this girl. In the past, when she heard that he was going out, she would beg him to take her with him, but today she was abnormal and told him to just go ahead and do his thing?
"Uncle Li, please go and do your work. I have to go practice the piano." Emily Hart was surprisingly well-behaved. She took a piece of bread and slipped away from under Alexander Knight's nose.
He stared at Emily Hart's back as she walked away, with an evil and presumptuous smile on his lips...
