Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 621

What?

Ariah's eyes widened, and she instantly froze. "What do you mean by that? How could Emily suddenly disappear? Wasn't she still fine when we were at home yesterday?"

Why did Emily disappear overnight?

Ariah wondered whether she had misheard Mack's words.

"Emily is missing? Is she not at home? Do you mean you can't get in touch with her?"

In order to make sure that she got the right message, Ariah confirmed it with Mack on the phone again.

Mack nodded and said, "Yes, that's what I meant."

Ariah took a deep breath. "What's going on? Please tell me everything."

"In the morning, we still didn't know that Emily had been missing because she usually got up late. At 10 o'clock, the servants didn't call her, thinking she was sleeping late. However, when it was time for lunch, she still hadn't come down, so your mother asked the servants to wake her up, which was when we found she was not in her room."

"It's possible that she's gone out alone."

Although they couldn't find Emily for the time being, it didn't mean that she was missing.

"We thought so too, but when we called her, we couldn't get in touch with her at all, so we had to Kobi. He said that when he went out this morning, Emily was still sleeping in bed."

Ariah frowned, "Calm down. Let's lodge a police report first."

"You don't need to teach me this. I know what to do. I call you to inform you that if you have nothing in the afternoon, you can go back to the Hudson Family. By the way, ask Jimmy to come back with you. He didn't answer my phone either, which was why I called you."

How could Jimmy not answer his phone?

He had even sent her to the hospital this morning.

"Okay, I got it. I'll contact him later."

After hanging up, Ariah immediately called Jimmy, but he didn't answer.

"What's going on?" she muttered.

Since she couldn't figure it out, she didn't bother to think too much about it either. After packing up, she immediately rushed to the Hudson Family.

At the same time, Kobi was driving slowly on the road. Upon passing through a remote area, they came to a very hold residence.

After stepping into the house, he went to the bedroom and opened the door.

The noises awakened the person lying on the bed.

Kobi turned on the light and said to the woman on the bed, 'Are you hungry? I brought you some food."

The woman on the bed glared at him.

With a smile, Kobi uttered, "Oh, I forgot that your mouth was sealed and you couldn't speak."

He then put down the things in his hand. "It may be a little painful to tear the tape. Hold on a little, okay?" This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

As he tore the tape, Emily's tears welled up in her eyes out of pain.

Kobi then untied the rope on her hands and feet. Seeing that she was free now, Emily stood up and wanted to flee. In a violent manner, Kobi pulled her back and looked at her stolidly. "Do you still want me to tie you up?"

"No, no." Emily shook her head repeatedly.

"Then you have to stay here obediently."

Left with no choice, she could only nod. "I won't run away. Please don't tie me up." "Good girl." Kobi patted her head.

As Emily stepped back, she looked at him alertly. "Are you really the man?"

Kobi frowned. "What do you mean by that?"

"Are you the real Kobi?"

Kobi started laughing. "I'm the only one who knows that you're here. Do you think I'm real or fake?"

Seeing Emily didn't believe him, he asked again, "Do you want me to tell you how we first met?"

"Tell me!"

"You came to my research institute with your father. You didn't know anything, yet you were curious about everything. When you touched some apparatus, you clumsily knocked over some test tubes and almost burned the institute. Do you remember that?"

It was him.

It was really Kobi.

How could she forget how they first met?

Emily's tears dropped all of a sudden. "W- Why don't you just kill me?"

She sat there with her knees in her arms, as tears started to stream down her face. She thought that she would definitely die last night. However, when she woke up, she realized that she was still in this room.

In the course of one night, she had thought about many things.

She suspected that Kobi had been planning something illegal, which she got to know by accident. He must be afraid that she would spread the news, or else he would not have done this to her.

Last night, Kobi had been so ruthless and cold. He didn't even stop the fake Kobi that wanted to take advantage of her...

That was why Emily thought that she would definitely be killed. She didn't expect that she would still see him again.

"Let's eat first." Kobi took out the food box one by one. "You haven't eaten for one whole day. I'm sure you're hungry."

"No, I'm not!" Emily did not want to eat, for she only wanted to leave this place. "Let go of me, Kobi! Let return to my home. I swear I won't say anything."

"I will let you go..."

"Really?"

"But not now."

Her face instantly darkened as she sat there with her back against the wall.

Looking at her with a frown, he called her again,

"Emily, come over and eat."

"Why don't you kill me?" However, she was still mumbling on her own in the corner.

Why did he have to spare her life? Why?

"Why should I kill you?"

"Because I ran into you and the man who looks like you" Emily glared at him. "Kobi, who is the person actually?"

Kobi stared at her with a faint smile. "If we are twins, do you think we would look identical?"

"What? Are both of you twins?"

She had never heard that the Hudson Family had another son besides Kobi.

With an indifferent expression, he said, "What an impressive imagination."

Her face went beet red when she knew that she had been ridiculed. Biting her lips, she asked, "If you aren't twins, then why do both of you look alike?"

"He disguised himself as me."

Emily looked at him in confusion.

Kobi smiled and continued, "There's no need for you to ask if you don't understand. Alright, come over and eat. I'll tell you everything you want to know after that."

Emily pursed her lips and sat where she was.

"Don't you want to eat?"

Once Kobi opened the food box, the fragrance triggered her senses. How could Emily not be hungry? The moment she smelled the fragrance, her stomach started to rumble.

She was just too weak.

Emily clutched at her stomach, but she still refused to move forward, which showed how stubborn she was.

As his eyebrows twitched, he looked at her. "Do you want me to feed you?"

"No!"

"Then please eat it now, or else I will just throw it away."

As he spoke, Kobi rose to his feet and was about to throw it into the dustbin.

Emily couldn't take it any longer, so she yelled, "I'll eat. Please don't throw it away!"

Once she snatched the food from Kobi's hand, she lowered her head to eat. Her antics made him snort as he sat down in front of her.

"Kobi, can you tell me what you plan to do now?"
