Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart
Chapter 405 Julian's Decision

It was Julian who kicked Larry. Julian rushed out when he saw Larry trying to take advantage of Emelia, but Julian didn't expect Emelia to hit Larry's crotch. When Larry took a step back, Julian kicked him hard with the help of inertia.

No sooner had Julian kicked Larry away when he pulled Emelia, who lost her balance, into his arms.

To relieve Julian, Emelia leaned on him and said softly, "Don't worry. I'm fine."

Emelia was telling the truth. Derek didn't do anything to her, so she just felt limp because of the drug.

"Nobody moves. This is the police!"

"Put your hands in the air!"

Behind Julian, the policemen rushed out. One of them stepped forward to hold down Larry, and the other stepped forward to stop Derek's driver from driving.

Larry struggled desperately to escape, but he stopped when he met the police's dark muzzle.

As for Derek, he was lying on the ground with a pale face and with great despair in his eyes.

In the end, everything fell apart.

Derek didn't expect Julian to have suspected him. Thus, it was just a trap, which Julian took advantage of to replace where Larry was.

The police outside the factory also broke open the iron gate and rushed in. The factory was surrounded in an instant, so Larry and Suzanne were unable to escape. Desperate and angry, Derek passed out.

Suzanne rushed out with a box in her hand, and yelled at the police, "Don't move, or I will destroy all these seals!"

"You idiot!" Julian, who was hugging Emelia, said coldly.

"Put down the box, and squat down with your hands behind your head!" The police shouted at Suzanne.

Suzanne ignored them but looked across the crowd at Julian.

Julian was so tall and outstanding that he always distinguished himself in the crowd.

Seeing that Julian was holding Emelia, Suzanne was irritated.

Suzanne shouted with furious eyes, "Julian! I'm not inferior to Emelia at all. Why don't you like me?"

Hearing this, everyone was lost for words.

They thought Suzanne was shameless.

No wonder Julian didn't like her.

No one would like a woman who resorted to kidnapping and extortion.

And no one would like a woman who didn't obey the law at all.

"What you need is a psychiatrist!" Julian said with disgust on his face and then helped Emelia to get into the car and left.

The police would deal with the rest, so Julian didn't want to see Suzanne being round the bend.

Seeing this, Suzanne cried angrily. The police took the opportunity to knock down the box off her hands, twisted her hands, and handcuffed her.

It put an end to the extortion.

Suzanne and Larry were taken to the police station, while Derek was taken to the hospital.

Larry had killed someone, so he might well be sentenced to death.

Suzanne and Derek, as accomplices, would replace themselves in the hands of the law.

Julian took Emelia to the hospital. Emelia felt better after the drug gradually wore off, but Julian remained worried.

The doctor gave Emelia a full work-up. According to the blood test, there were no other harmful drugs in her body. Reading this, Julian breathed a long sigh of relief.

He squeezed Emelia's shoulders and said, "Whatever you say in the future, you are not allowed to take any more chances."

"I see." Emelia felt that Julian was very nervous, so she didn't want to argue with him for the time being.

After the work-up, Emelia and Julian decided to return to the hotel.

A policeman stopped them and said to Julian, "Derek wants to see you."

Julian sneered, took Emelia's hand, and followed the police to Derek's ward.

Derek's forehead was bandaged, and he looked much more haggard. When Derek saw Julian, he apologized in shame, "Mr. Hughes, Miss Jones, I'm so sorry for what happened. As an apology, I'd like to offer a reduction of 50%."

Derek thought that it was a great temptation, but Julian squinted and smiled gracefully. "I'm sorry. I don't plan to take that piece of land."

"What?" Derek was shocked.

Julian repeated it slowly, "I mean I don't want your land anymore."

Derek froze, speechless for a while.

"But you..." Derek was overwhelmed by shock.

"Mr. Hughes, please think of what you're doing."

"If you think I'm not sincere enough, then I can cut it by 80%." Derek said sadly, "I'm old, so I don't need too much money. However, Suzanne will be alone after I die, so I want to leave some money for her!" Julian offered a high price, so even 20% of it was enough for Suzanne to live well for the rest of her life.

"If you are worried about Suzanne, I can't agree." Julian mocked, "Your family have been so vicious against me, so I won't use my money to keep Suzanne safe."

Derek froze. He didn't expect Julian to say that.

After a long while, Derek pointed at Julian in fury. "Do you know the price for that?"

"If you don't want my land, then you will have to give up this industrial park, and the money you paid for those factories will be in vain!"

Julian smiled gently. "I'm not short of money, so I can afford this."

Derek didn't expect that Julian was so determined. Julian would rather give up than buy Derek's land. Derek's eyes dulled, so he quickly covered his chest and took a deep breath. Derek made a big mistake.

He had thought he could leave a great deal of money for Suzanne, but Julian didn't want the land anymore.

If what happened tonight spread out, no one would dare to make a deal with Derek.

Without money, what could Suzanne do for the rest of her life?

She was spoiled since she was a child, so she was unable to make a living. Worse still, she was so arrogant...

As Larry's accomplice, Suzanne would inevitably be sent to prison. With this, it would be even more difficult for her to survive after she was released.

When Derek thought of this, he felt that something was surging in his chest, with the taste of blood filling his throat. The next second, he spit out a mouthful of blood and passed out.
