My Ex, Please Love Me Again

Chapter 56 Afraid to Face Emelia



Emelia was so furious that she burst into tears.

As soon as Harry saw her crying, he was about to swing his fist at the assistant director again.

Emelia cried and stopped him, “Don’t…”

She still had her wits about her. With so much noise, the restaurant manager rushed over, and if he continued to fight, Harry’s image would be ruined.

She desperately tried to stop Harry, who then stopped to get up from that assistant director.

The assistant director was beaten so badly that his nose bled. Harvey grabbed a packet of tissues and handed it to him to stop the bleeding.

He hid behind Harvey while covering his nose and cursing with hatred, “Harry! I’ll help you if you want to die, wait for me!”

“How dare you threaten me?” Harry said and was about to go forward again, while the restaurant manager hurriedly stopped him, “Calm down, calm down! Everyone, calm down.”Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

The restaurant was located next to a famous tv and film set, so the restaurant manager knew Harry and Harvey, and was a person who could pay attention to the interests of the whole. He immediately closed the door of the private room, isolating the waiters and other customers who were trying to watch from outside.

“Call the police! I want the police!” The assistant director screamed in exasperation.

Emelia was flustered. Harry was a popular actor, once the police was called, it would tarnish Harry’s image.

Harry was not afraid at all and glared viciously at the assistant director, “If you have the guts, call the police, you pervert, I still think I have not beaten you hard enough.”

Harry said as he was about to step forward again to make a move, and the assistant director hurriedly hid behind Harvey again.

Emelia had calmed down after initially being angry and crying, she pulled Harry and asked Harvey and the assistant director, “Did Yvonne ask you to do this?”

Before Harvey said anything, the assistant director arrogantly shouted, “Yes, what? Are you afraid? If you’re afraid, hurry up and apologize to me!”

Harry snapped, “Dream on!”

The assistant director gritted his teeth and threatened, “Harry, you don’t know about Yvonne’s relationship with Julian, do you? She is about to marry into the Hughes family and become the hostess of the Hughes family, do you believe that Julian will block you!”

“Yvonne merely had a pillow talk to Julian and Emelia was asked to modify the script, so you can imagine that it was just a piece of cake for her to get Julian to block you.”

Harry looked at Emelia incredulously, “Is it true what he said?”

Harry did not know that Emelia had gone through the fact of modifying the script, and thought that her work was progressing quite well.

He was even unaware that Julian would be so dim-witted as to allow Yvonne to do whatever she wanted to do in work matters.

Emelia did not answer Harry’s question, nor did she want to.

Whatever Julian’s purpose in asking her to modify the script, she had already done so.

She pulled Harry and said, “Let’s go.”

“Go?” The assistant director opened his mouth, “You beat me up like this, and you want to leave?”

Emelia sneered, “If you hadn’t laid your hands on me in the first place, you wouldn’t have been beaten!”

Emelia was on Harry’s side no matter what, even if it was wrong to hit that scumbag.

The assistant director, looking at the way the two were defending each other, asked with a swollen half-face, “What’s with you two?”

Harry snorted lightly, “Why do you care?”

The assistant director laughed contemptuously, “Ms. Jones, I can’t see that you still have this ability to even hook up with such a young boy.”

“You act like you’re pure and innocent, but you’re a slut behind the scenes.”

As the assistant director’s words fell, Emelia was so angry that she trembled.

Harry shook off her tug on his hand straight away and swung hard again.

The restaurant manager and Harvey managed to pull Harry away, but the assistant director spat out a mouthful of blood and yelled, “Call the police! I want to call the police!”

The incident eventually ended with the arrival of the police who took them to the police station.

The restaurant manager was wise enough to clear the restaurant beforehand, but there was no guarantee that anyone had seen or heard or even captured the video of Harry beating someone up.

This incident alarmed Viggo and also the top management of Harry’s company.

Julian also knew about it, and it was Nina who called him.

Nina cursed over the phone, “Julian Hughes, fuck you! You fucking asshole!”

“You’re divorced and you still won’t fucking let Emelia go. Discipline that scheming bitch of yours! If you bully Emelia again, I’ll hunt you down!”

Julian was inexplicably scolded, and his tone was naturally displeased, “What’s going on?”

“What’s going on? Ask that bitch Yvonne yourself!” Nina hung up the phone after yelling this again.

Julian frowned and called David in, telling him to find out what had happened.

Nina was so angry, so something must have happened to Emelia.

Not long after, David came in and reported with a heavy expression, “Harvey and his assistant director asked Emelia to have dinner, saying they were discussing the script, but the assistant director made a move on Emelia and was beaten up by Harry, which led to the police station.”

“Laid hands on Emelia in broad daylight?” The moment Julian heard this description of David, he instantly became enraged.

As someone who often went to various social occasions, Julian knew that some men do like to lay their filthy hands on women and take advantage of them.

Most of the time he chose to ignore it, but the thought of it happening to Emelia made him want to chop the assistant director’s hand off.

And the last time when Harvey tried to touch Emelia’s waist, he couldn’t even stand it, otherwise he wouldn’t have asked Maisie to contact another director for replacement.

David nodded in response, and then hesitantly said, “It is said that the assistant director called out that it was Yvonne who instructed him to do so, in order to drive Emelia out of the project.”

Julian’s face was as gloomy as it could be.

David suggested at the right time, “Now should we press down this matter first? It’s bad for Harry if the news is spread, and he got into this kind of trouble because of Emelia.”

If something had happened to Harry, Emelia would have felt guilty and blamed herself.

By protecting Harry, it would at least solve a big problem for Emelia.

David felt that his boss should do that, which was why he had the audacity to have such an offer.

Julian naturally knew the original intention of David’s proposal, and without any hesitation, he ordered, “Use all connections to suppress this matter, and don’t allow any word to leak out.”

After he had finished instructing, he added, “Tell Maisie to go to the police station with me.”

When he finished, he got up and took the car key and left. Maisie then got into the car with him.

The reason why Julian brought Maisie was because Maisie was on good terms with Emelia and Maisie could help him ease his relationship with Emelia.

Julian didn’t know what was wrong with him, since Emelia had given him a hard time last time, he was a bit afraid to face her.

Or perhaps it could be said that he was afraid to face Emelia, who always gave him the cold shoulder.
