A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 1453 Impossible To Explain Clearly

As the old saying went, aged ginger was more pungent. When Hunk used his smooth tactics, the young ones didn't stand a chance.

Standing by the door of the room, Louis wanted to say something, but decided against it. He and Emily were still talking to each other when they noticed their father slowly going downstairs.

"Do you want me to cover for you again?" Emily asked out of kindness. She had no idea if she would be scolded by the old man if she were to interfere.

Whenever Louis saw his reflection in Emily's eyes, he could tell that he was no more than just an empty shell. He had no life left in him.

"You should at least buy a gift for Janet. I know you haven't seen each other for quite a long time, but I reckon she will be happy if you bring her a bunch of roses,"

Instead of answering, he just dismissively waved his hand and drove
