Second Chances

Chapter 68 

After Liam’s trusted members of Team Thunder each went off to carry out their tasks, only one person stayed behind. 

“I want to send you to investigate something.” Liam said. 

“Mr. Hall please give your orders.” 

After careful consideration, Liam said, “Emma has been talking in her sleep, saying strange things.” 

The words that Emma said in her sleep came to Liam’s mind. ‘Elijah, you killed Liamt I’m going to kill you! Liam, hurry up and leave… Liam, don’t save me…” 

These words were said unconsciously by Emma, leaving Liam very puzzled. 

He was afraid that she still had some other painful experiences that he was unaware of. 

“Help me find out what exactly Emma went through in the past,” Liam said. “Also, find out what exactly that guy called Elijah was involved with me in the past.” 

“Got it, Mr. Hall 

After his subordinate left, Liam sat alone in the study, deep in thought. 

“If it happened just once, maybe I’d think she was having a nightmare, he thought. ‘But it happens multiple times, again and again. I have to suspect if there’s something very important that I’ve overlooked 

When Emma woke up the next day, she was sticky all over. Even though she and Llam had yet to reach the stage where they got physical, this was already the second time they had been so intimate. 

She was in the bathtub, applying a face mask and taking a bath, while learning about the latest developments regarding Elsie from Josiah. 

“Miss Wilson, you weren’t harsh enough the other day,” Josiah said. “Her mouth is almost healed now, and she’s about to hold a charity auction for the wealthy ladies of Troin City.” 

“An auction?” Emma asked. 

Josiah replied, “Yeah.” 

“Liam has kept your whereabouts hidden from the outside,” Josiah continued. “The fire department and the police are investigating the explosion, and they are already suspecting Elsie. Elsie doesn’t know you two have woken up. She thinks you’re both dead.” 

Emma leaned back against the bathtub, holding her phone, and closed her eyes to rest. 

“This woman is really indifferent until she’s caught red–handed,” Josiah said. “The police have already suspected her, but she’s still hosting parties as if nothing has happened. Miss Wilson, is there anything we need to do next?” 

“She’s so eager to get into deep shit,” Emma said. “It’s not my style if I don’t give her a ride!” 

Emma smiled before adding coldly, “Send me the list of all the guests and the program for the day of the charity auction. I’ll make sure she never forgets that day for the rest of her life.” 

Elsie’s charity auction was three days away.

Chapter 68 

There had been no news of Emma and Liam for a week, and Levi’s fate was uncertain. 

The possibility of escaping from such an explosion and surviving was almost zero, especially considering that Liam had just been in a car 

accident. 

So, even if their bodies were not found, Elsie firmly believed that the two of them were dead. 

Overjoyed, she immediately held Starry Night Charity Auction, which was the grandest event every year among the circle of wealthy ladies in Troln City 

Other than some wealthy women, top–tier celebrities in the entertainment Industry and socialites would also attend the event that night. 

It would be a star–studded event. 

The person who was in the position to host this event was a symbol of peak power. 

Elsie wore a luxurious haute couture Chapane gown that day. 

The moment she appeared, she attracted everyone’s attention. 

“She truly lives up to the reputation as the mistress of the Hall family. I heard that Chapane gowns are as difficult to order as gowns by Youth” 

“I won’t be able to order a Youth gown in my life, but if I can get sponsorship from Chapane for the red carpet event next year. I can wake up laughing even in my dreams,” another female celebrity said. 

“Eh?” another female celebrity said. “Wasn’t it said that Mr. Rivera has recently signed a contract to endorse Chapane?” She looked around and continued, “Is Mr. Rivera coming today? If he is, let’s talk to him and see if he can give us two spots.” 

As the two female celebrities chatted, the auction began on the other side. 

Every year, Starry Night Charity Auction was the center of attention for people from all walks of life. 

Everyone who attended went all out, not only in dressing their best but also in donating items, each more expensive than the last. 

The one who took the lead was undoubtedly Elsic, who was the focus of the evening. 

“Let’s invite tonight’s starry goddess, Mrs. Hall, to give the opening speech!” 

Elsie walked up the steps, her voluminous golden silk gown instantly making a grand entrance. 

With a 45–foot–long train, it was luxury at its finest. 

She smiled smugly. 

At the thought that she had already gotten rid of Liam and Emma, she smiled even more joyfully. 

“Mrs. Hall is spirited tonight. She’s in such a good state.” 

“That’s right. Previously, there were rumors that she was suppressed by the disabled eldest son of the Hall family… Now, it seems that the 

rumors are all false.” 

“That Liam is now a cripple,” a wealthy lady said. “Right now, the entire Hall family belongs to Elsie and Brad.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Elsie can afford to wear this outfit. This goes to show how powerful she is. In the future, we have to side with her and not waste effort on that

cripple.” 

Elsie stood under the spotlight, feeling more and more happy. 

“Let us give thanks and appreciation for this wonderful evening!” she said. 

“Clap!” 

The applause was thunderous. 

The emcee also clapped vigorously. 

“Mrs. Hall is the first person in our country to wear a gown that was exclusively custom–made by Chapanel Tonight’s Starry Night Charity Gala will surely be a success!” 

le stage. 

Just then, a clear voice of someone talking indifferently could be heard coming from below the 

“Exclusively custom–made by Chapane?” 

Amidst the guests‘ expressions of good wishes, there was suddenly a strange noise, causing everyone to involuntarily turn and look at him. 

In the crowd, a man was seen with his long legs crossed. He was dressed in a luxurious high–end white suit, and his handsome face was adorned with black sunglasses. His nose bridge was high. 

He got up and pointed at the woman on the stage. 

“Her gown is a fake,” he said. 

Right after he said that, the entire place was in an uproar. 

Everyone looked at Elsie in shock, thinking. A fake? No way!” 

Elsie’s expression gradually became strange. “Who are you?” she said. “My gown is genuine, and it was air–shipped from Antgem. What evidence do you have to say that my gown is fake?” 

Even though she managed to maintain her composure, the fluster on her face could not be hidden. 

Sean smiled as he took off his sunglasses. 

During the instant he revealed his face, everyone widened their eyes,

But today, he was entrusted by Emma to specifically 

Sean devised a strategy to achieve his goal of sabotaging Elsie’s event. He enunciated each word as he said, “I am the sole global. spokesperson for Chapane. If what I say is false, then are you saying yours is true? Chapane has been affected by the economy and hasn’t sold any clothes at all for nearly half a year. The first order they received was for my niece. Where did you buy this dress you’re wearing?” 

No one present had ever seen authentic Chapane clothes. 

Initially, even if Elsie insisted that it was authentic, no one would doubt her words. 

But unfortunately, Sean was currently the spokesperson for Chapane.

His words represented authority. 

Being exposed for wearing a counterfeit gown in such a situation was undoubtedly extremely embarrassing. 

Elsie’s expression alternated between anger and awkwardness. 

She struggled desperately, saying, “Mere words are not sufficient prool. You are just a spokesperson. Can you speak on behalf of the entire Chapane brand?” 

Sean was already prepared. 

He immediately produced a pre–prepared video of Chapane director’s personal clarification and projected it onto the large screen of the entire charity gala.
