Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart
Chapter 432 Save Me

Julian didn't get back to Riverside City until Sunday evening. But for Emelia's urging, he might have stayed for several days.

Emelia felt quite tired. The whole precious weekend was spent with Julian. So, she promised to herself in mind that she would stay at the capital to accompany Vincent and Naomi when the training ended next week.

After seeing Julian off Sunday evening, Emelia got back to the hotel where she lived during the training. Olivia had gone so Emelia lived in her original room.

The matter with Olivia had come to an end and no one called her for reconciling anymore and Olivia didn't contact her in any form since then.

When the training started again tomorrow morning, Emelia knew one thing when hearing other's talking, that was, she didn't fit in as part of the group.

They would have such an impression because she was absent in all the dinner party and game party organized by them.

Emelia had no idea how to explain.

Julian had been with her since last Friday so she didn't even get the time to accompany her parents, let alone to attend those parties.

Actually, at first Emelia wasn't quite sure whether she should attend these parties to fit in this group or not.

But Julian said, "Why do you want to fit in? Didn't you learn enough from Olivia's case? You still got Nina, Maisie and many other old friends as friends. They are the ones who care about you the most. Sometimes you just care too much about how others think of you."

He continued, "You don't know how to refuse strangers' request but sometimes you can refuse mine coldly and toughly."

Emelia didn't know what to say. His words were unpleasant but she knew he was right.

Indeed, Nina, Maisie were good friends of hers and that's enough. She didn't need to fawn on anyone else or to fit in any group when she didn't like to do so.

Nina, Maisie, or even Jean, who was now almost out of touch with her, didn't approach her due to her position or her prominent background.

They became friends with each other just because they were attracted by others' character.

She definitely didn't want to make friends with the type of person such as Olivia who approached her only for benefits. So, Emelia decided not to attend these parties.

One day when Emelia finished her training and got back to her room, she received a call from Heather Duncan.

Hearing Heather's voice, Emelia felt as if she had gone back in time.

Emelia hadn't been in touch with Heather since Heather was sent abroad forcibly by Julian after Caroline's death.

The scene of how Heather gave a slap on her face could still appear vividly before her mind's eyes.

The moment she answered the call, she heard Heather crying from the other side, "I'm so sorry, Emelia. I shouldn't have been so mean to you and I shouldn't have treated you so bad... I... I shouldn't have slapped you."

"I just want to say sorry to you..." her crying wasn't pleasant to hear and Emelia frowned.

Emelia knew Heather must have some ulterior motives. Otherwise, she wouldn't apologize to her in such a humble way.

So, she said in a low voice, "What do you want from me?"

Heather stopped crying but still choked with sobs, "I beg you, Emelia, to say something for me to Julian. Please, persuade him to let me come back."

Heather then burst into tears again, "I couldn't get accustomed to the life here. I can't speak the language hear and I don't like the food and the lifestyle here. And I have to stay with Gerhard Hughes all day long. I even want to kill myself!"

The bitterness in her words told Emelia that she was telling the truth.

Emelia also knew how she was suffering right now. But why did she call her?

Julian was her son and it might be more easily for her to beg her own son.

Over this, Heather answered the question in her mind, "I know what you have in mind now. I did try to contact Julian for several times, but he either ignored me or didn't agree to let me go home."

"Only one of the ten phone calls I gave him could be answered," Heather said while sobbing, "I knew he hates me bad, but now confining me to this place couldn't make up for the mistakes I have made. So, please, help me, Emelia."

Hearing her words, Emelia didn't think she could manage to persuade Julian for Heather's sake so she declined, "I don't think I can help."

Then she didn't say anything and was about to hang up the phone.

Heather stopped her quickly, "No, Emelia, now you are the only one Julian will listen to. He will agree if it is you who persuade him!"

Heather was afraid that Emelia would decline her for a second time so she continued, "And I want you to know I won't get back to Riverside City anymore. I will replace a nice place to live and I won't intervene in your relationship anymore, no matter you are infertile or not."

"Please, Emelia, please save me." Heather said while sobbing, "You don't know what I'm suffering now. I fell ill several days ago and I had to go to the hospital. But Gerhard didn't accompany me to the hospital. I cannot speak the native language and I don't know how to describe my symptoms to the doctor."

"I will die someday if I was forced to stay here any longer!"

In fact, it was Grandpa Hughes who suggested that she give a phone call to Emelia for help.

Heather had been constantly calling Julian or Grandpa Hughes to tell how painful the life was here since she was sent abroad.

This time, when she called Grandpa Hughes for help, he told her that now only Emelia could help her.

When Heather was passionately in love with Gerhard, he was also willing to do whatever she wanted. So, she knew Grandpa Hughes meant that her son was now in deep love with Emelia. Mixed feeling bubbled up in Heather's mind. No matter how hard she tried, she didn't manage to drive Emelia away from her son.

She knew Grandpa Hughes was right.

Now, Heather would rather live a happy life than continue to be an enemy of Emelia.

Therefore, she gave a phone call without hesitation to Emelia to beg her to save her.

When she was replaceing fault with Emelia and when she was looking down upon Emelia in the past, it had never occurred to her that one day she would have to beg Emelia.

Emelia couldn't stand the sound of her crying anymore so she said in a cold voice, "I will try to persuade him. But I don't know whether he will listen to me or not." Then Emelia hung up the phone.

Actually, she didn't care what Heather was suffering but she knew she needed to do that for Julian's sake. Otherwise, Julian might be criticized by the general public as an unfilial son. When Heather couldn't stand her life abroad anymore, she might even inform the media that she was bullied by her own son.

Heather was the kind of person who could do that.00000
