On the last night before Alexander Knight left, Emily Hart asked him to spend it with her.
He held her in his arms with his strong and broad body, and he liked the fragrance of her body, which always lingered around his nose.
"Xin'er, when Uncle Li comes back in half a year, you might have grown up." Alexander Knight suddenly said with emotion. In the blink of an eye, this girl has grown up. He vaguely remembered that she always cried in his lap when she was a child.
"Uncle Li, no matter how old I grow, you will always be the one I love the most." Emily Hart squirmed towards Alexander Knight's arms, rubbing her palm-sized little face against him.
"The one you love the most?" Alexander Knight laughed evilly, "Girl, what kind of love do you have for Uncle Li?"
"Uncle Li...you are bad!" Emily Hart rubbed her sore eyes and turned her back to avoid facing Alexander Knight's teasing.
"Be good, you will definitely miss me after I leave, right?" Alexander Knight suddenly felt reluctant to leave this girl. He thought about how difficult it would be to be away from her for half a year.
"I definitely think about it." Emily Hart straightened her head again, "But it's also good that Uncle Li is not here..." She was so sleepy that she couldn't even open her eyes, but Uncle Li kept asking her questions.
"Why is it good? Don't you like me to accompany you?" Emily Hart's words made Alexander Knight suddenly furious. Does this girl dislike him so much?
"Uncle Li is always watching over me! Every day is like a cage, I don't like it at all." Emily Hart didn't even open her eyes. She replied softly and buried her head in the quilt.
"You little bastard, I only allow you to like me and belong to me alone. No one else is allowed to covet you!"
Alexander Knight grabbed Emily Hart's small body, then approached her, lowered his head and captured her lips, kissing her wildly, domineeringly, coldly...
"Hmm…"
Emily Hart was half asleep, and she only knew that her lips were blocked and she had difficulty breathing. She couldn't struggle out, and in the end, she could only let the man kiss and suck...
The next day.
The early morning sunlight shone through the window screens, and Emily Hart, who was sleeping, felt it was blinding. She turned over, pulled up the silk quilt and covered her head with it, wanting to continue sleeping in.
"Xin'er, little lazy pig, I'm leaving, won't you get up and see me off?"
In the quiet morning, Uncle Li's voice suddenly rang out. Emily Hart jumped out of bed and blinked her innocent eyes, "Uncle Li, are you really leaving today?"
Alexander Knight said "hmm", and he was dressed. He was as handsome and arrogant as ever, but in front of her, he was always gentle and affectionate.
"Uncle Li, when you come back in half a year, it will be winter, which is also my eighteenth birthday. You must prepare a big gift for me, otherwise I will be angry."
Emily Hart pouted, grabbed the man by the collar, and swayed back and forth coquettishly.
"That depends on what Yoshi reports to me. Have you been staying in the castle obediently or have your academic performance improved? Otherwise, I won't give you this gift." Alexander Knight put his arm around Emily Hart's willow-like waist and warned her in a dignified and domineering manner.
"Uncle Li, do you want to send someone to monitor me even though you are not in the castle?" Emily Hart was very dissatisfied when she heard Uncle Li warning her like this. She hated that Uncle Li was keeping her imprisoned like a pet.
"This is all for your own good." Alexander Knight would not allow Emily Hart, who was as pure as a blank sheet of paper, to be polluted by people from the outside world. She could only belong to him, whether in life or death.
"Uncle Li, tell me, what is the difference between me and other girls? Why don't you allow me to interact with the outside world and keep me in this golden cage?"
Whenever Emily Hart argued about this issue with Alexander Knight, her eyes would turn red with grievance. He didn't know how envious she was every time she saw other students being able to play freely.
"Not allowed means not allowed! What, now that you've grown up and become independent, you want to escape from me?" Alexander Knight's eyes suddenly turned red, he burst into anger, and looked at Emily Hart coldly.
"I hate you!" Emily Hart cried out, jumped off the bed and rushed out of the room. She hated Uncle Li for always imprisoning her like this. No one could stand this kind of caged life.
"Emily Hart!" Alexander Knight also roared angrily, but the person had already disappeared at the door.
He knew that as the girl grew older, the depression in her heart would grow with time. However, there were only two years left. In another two years, she would never cry again.
Alexander Knight's deep black eyes closed slightly, and the huge rise and fall of his chest gradually subsided.
After Emily Hart had a quarrel with Alexander Knight, she ran to the greenhouse and sobbed. Whenever she was angry or unhappy, she would come here to vent. This seemed to have become a habit for her.
"I wonder who has offended our little ancestor, huh?"
Emily Hart's tears fell drop by drop. She heard an evil voice and blinked her beautiful eyes and looked up, "Brother Yaosi."
Seeing the person who was comforting her, Emily Hart excitedly rushed over and hugged Ethan Lyle tightly. He was her favorite big brother who had always spoiled her, unlike Uncle Li who only knew how to imprison her.
"Little girl, what's wrong with you?" Ethan Lyle was still a little at a loss when Emily Hart suddenly threw herself into his arms. If Alexander Knight saw this scene, he would definitely step forward and chop him.
"Uncle Li only knows how to bully me! I don't like him..." Emily Hart would say this every time she quarreled with Alexander Knight, and afterward, she would say that she could never live without him.
"Silly girl, your Uncle Li has his own reasons, you should understand him." Ethan Lyle reached out and combed Emily Hart's seaweed-like black hair, his tone gentle for a moment.
"What difficulties did he have to imprison me for the rest of my life? He never let me step out of the castle since I was a child." Every time Emily Hart talked about this, her eyes would become moist involuntarily. This was the only thing that annoyed her about Uncle Li.
"There are a lot of bad guys out there. As a powerful figure in the business world, your uncle Li is bound to offend a lot of gangsters. And he dotes on you so much, he will definitely not let you get hurt."
Ethan Lyle's comfort was always effective. He calmed the crying Emily Hart with just a few words and stopped her from feeling wronged and worrying about this issue.
"Brother Yaosi, I really wish Uncle Li was an ordinary person, so that there wouldn't be so many bad guys targeting him." Emily Hart thought about it, and she no longer felt aggrieved. Instead, she was worried about whether Uncle Li would be in danger when he went out.
"Yeah, you should pay more attention to your Uncle Li. You shouldn't always quarrel with him and make his heart cold that dotes on you so much." Ethan Lyle put out his hand to wipe Emily Hart's tears and blew on her red and swollen eyes considerately.
"Is it really my fault?" Emily Hart lowered her head, looking as if she had done something wrong.
"Be good, let's go apologize to your uncle Li and admit his mistake, so that he can leave and feel relieved."
Ethan Lyle took Emily Hart's hand and led her into the main hall...
