Chapter 739: Chapter 739

Emily Allen was a bit slow-care, she was indeed fond of the money, but she wasn’t ridiculous enough to be all grabby about it.

"Even if we know she’s Sophie Allen, what’s the point? Are you suggesting we reach out to her? Don’t forget about the things we’ve done in the past."

Emily was very clear that even if Charlotte Thompson was Sophie Allen, she couldn’t mess with the current Charlotte.

And she didn’t dare to.

If Charlotte didn’t come to her for trouble, she would be grateful.

Ryan Richard tightly held on to Emily, and continued, "Not a kin, but for money. No one knows she’s Sophie Allen, so if you threaten her, she’ll definitely give you money."

Ryan made it sound simple, but Emily, who has been through the hardships of society, how could she possibly be used by him so easily?

She looked at Ryan with interest and questioned, "Why don’t you go for it? Why come here and share a profit with me?"

Ryan stuttered when his soft spot was hit.

If he hadn’t been watched by Justin Battleson and warned, he wouldn’t have let Charlotte off easily. Moreover, he would have shared the money with Emily. He had no choice but to use Emily to avoid pressure from Justin on the Richard Corporation.

Ryan was nervous, repeatedly wiping his hands on his pants, "It’s not... my status is not quite suitable. If it turns out more than it’s worth."

Emily was skeptical, "How much are you asking for?"

"Ten million, we split it in half." Ryan held out the bait.

"Ten million? Are you mad, impossible?" Emily immediately felt the situation was impossible when she heard Ryan’s ridiculous demand.

Ryan hastily explained: "You’re not unaware of who her ’gold mine’ currently is. Ten million must be peanuts to her."

Emily slumped down in her seat, feeling that Ryan was simplifying everything too much.

Speaking of Sophie, she only thought of how she had bullied Charlotte afterwards. However, the Allen family was targeted and suffered a severe downfall. Her life was miserable; hence, she stepped into the entertainment circle.

Now thinking about it, it’s laughable how her life turned out, and what kind of person Charlotte is. If she knew not only she was blackmailing her but also asking for such a huge amount of money, she felt she would definitely get herself killed.

"I’m not doing it, you go on your own."

Emily refused, decisively.

If Ryan could face Charlotte himself, he wouldn’t have come here to beg Emily. However, Emily was his last straw, and he knew he needed to hang on to her.

He held Emily’s hand and persuaded her kindly: "Think about it carefully. If you miss out on this chance, can we still turn around and recover? What if she clears up things later, we won’t be able to hold anything against her."

Emily remained firm, and Ryan continued to sweet-talk her: "Consider this, what status does Charlotte hold now? She can’t still be bothered about the things we did in the past. Moreover, you know. If it hadn’t been for her leaving, leaving my company in a mess of broken affairs. I wouldn’t have ended up . So, I’m merely getting back what is rightfully mine."

Emily turned to the other side, but Ryan turned her back, "If you don’t feel comfortable, let your dad try. After all, he is Sophie’s biological father. I bet she wouldn’t ignore that."

Sophie was swayed, "Moreover, with the Sophie connection, there’s nothing she can’t get. I heard you’ve been shooting a horror film lately. It must be hard, isn’t it? Even after it is aired, it probably won’t get much attention. Do you really plan to rely on your body to gain resources for a lifetime?"

"No." Emily recalled her experiences and felt an instant revulsion.

Everyone had the right to strive for a better life, and she was no exception.

If blame had to be cast, she could only blame Sophie for her unfortunate fate and accidentally messing with Emily. This update is available on noveⅼfire.net
