My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 984 - Provoking The Wrong Person?

Hearing his voice, Emma immediately looked at Paul with vigilance. "You're just wasting my time, there's nothing to talk about!"

Paul opened his eyes and looked at her, but said nothing.

Indra behind him came straight to Emma and stretched his arms towards a private room. "Over here."

At this moment, Emma was a little uneasy.

Although she didn't know much about the situation in Surabaya, she had heard of some of the powerful families here before coming.

But none of the information she'd read mentioned anything about a disabled old man from one of the big families!

At this moment, Emma watched Indra's movements warily, and thought the man was just bluffing. "What if I don't want to?!"

Indra's face sank, and he stepped forward with a serious face. But before he could say anything, he heard Paul say behind him, "You should still come along. Since you know that boy surnamed Hiroshi, then call him too!"

At this moment, Merry blinked. The boy surnamed Hiroshi should be her father… right?!

After all, Samuel was the head of the Hiroshi family, but in this old man's eyes, he was still the Hiroshi family's boy.

This uncle is really amazing!

No matter how suspicious Emma was in her heart, when she suddenly heard Paul mention Samuel's name, her heart was flooded with bad feelings.

It seemed that this old man was indeed someone powerful.

Emma couldn't help but regret her response earlier, and there was a trace of admiration in her eyes for Paul.

This kind of situation is not good for her!

But when she heard the old man tell her to call Samuel, Emma secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She was sure that Samuel wouldn't stay silent when he saw her being bullied.

...

Not long after, Emma followed Indra to a private room inside the restaurant that had been prepared.

Seeing this sight, Anna came to Merry's side with her red cheeks, then removed her arm and whispered, "Merry, my aunt didn't mean it that way, can your uncle not embarrass her?"

Merry frowned and looked at Anna, she gently touched her cheek which was beaten by Emma and said sadly, "She deserves to be humiliated, who gave her the right to hit you!"

Anna sighed and shook her head after hearing this. "It's really my fault, I've done something stupid. My father already warned me about Jade and not to let people know the situation. I was too worried. Yesterday, I accidentally told you about Jade. My aunt never did anything to me. Maybe I went too far to make her angry today."

Anna wasn't stupid, but because of her guilt, she still wanted to help Emma by interceding.

She did not know that her aunt's attitude towards Merry was very problematic.

So for this matter, she planned to discuss it with her elder brother when they returned.

Before the matter was resolved, she decided not to say anything.

At this moment, Merry heard Anna blaming herself, and subconsciously glanced at Paul.

The distance between them wasn't far, and the old man could hear exactly what Anna was saying.

Even though Paul has pushed his feelings away from the world, that doesn't mean he doesn't have a heart.

Today, his heart was moved only because of Merry.

At this time, seeing the little girl, Paul suddenly became gentle.

He stretched out his eyebrows and said to the two girls, "Since you are afraid that I will embarrass her, then come in and sit down together!"

As the words fell, Paul called out to Clifford again. "Are you Jean's subordinate? Push me in, then call my son and ask him to come."

Clifford walked respectfully behind the wheelchair. Pushing Paul forward, he vaguely raised his head at Merry and Anna, and motioned for them to go with him.

...

The private room is elegantly and luxuriously decorated.

It is very spacious, with a long table large enough to accommodate more than ten people.

Fresh flowers and all kinds of beautiful tableware are also placed on its clean and tidy surface.

Currently, Paul sat at the table taking off his hat and handed it to Indra.

Sitting behind the table, Emma seemed to be deliberately distancing herself from Paul.

When Merry and Anna sat down one by one, Paul rubbed his forehead and said to Indra, "Get us some tea and also a bag of ice for the little girl."

Indra walked out, and he looked at Clifford then said to him while looking at the door. "You go and guard the door. When the others come, let them in straight away."

"Yes sir."

As the two of them left, Paul looked around the table. Wiping his hands on the napkin, he looked at Emma. "I just heard this little girl from the Sylvester family call you aunty, so… you're also from the Sylvester family?"

Emma was surprised by his calm demeanor, blinked and nodded. "Yes, I'm from the Sylvester family, do you also know about my family?"

Sylvester Family from Parma is rarely known by Indonesians.

How did this old man know?

Facing Emma's implicitly suspicious eyes, Paul raised his mouth nonchalantly, folded the napkin in his palm, and asked calmly, "It's just a family in Parma, do you think it's hard to figure out?"

Emma frowned, she felt there was a trace that she was being belittled.

The Sylvester family, while not mysterious, have many years of background and family history.

And when her surname comes out of Paul's mouth, it's as if it's not worth mentioning.

Emma's fingers on her knees curled slightly, she withdrew her gaze from Paul's face, her expression sinking into deep thought.

Was she provoking someone dangerous?!

At this time, Indra entered the room just in time.

Behind him were two maids who brought them three cups of tea, after which they left in a hurry.

"Master, this is the ice bag!" Indra walked over and handed the ice bag to the front.

Seeing this, Paul glanced at Merry, and Indra immediately understood.

When the little girl took the ice bag from Indra, she looked at Paul gratefully. "Thank you, uncle!"

When the words came out, she held the ice bag and pressed it against Anna's cheek.

She didn't know how much force Emma used when she slapped Anna.

In just a few minutes, half of Anna's cheeks were swollen, and even the traces of the woman's palms were clearly visible.

Merry put the ice on Anna's cheek carefully, she didn't forget to give Emma a cruel look.

Inside the room, silence immediately spread.

This waiting time was undoubtedly difficult for Emma.

Since she didn't know Paul's goal, it made her feel like she was sitting on a sharp surface.

In less than fifteen minutes, suddenly a voice came from the door.

When everyone followed the voice, they saw Clifford pushing the door, and behind him were Samuel and Erika.

"Mother!"

Merry shouted at Erika, put the ice bag in Anna's hands, got up and ran towards her.

She was surprised that her mother came too!
