Sebastian supported Emma. However, she indulged her adoptive daughter in drugging my son and assisted her. Fortunately, it was a harmless drug. In the future, if Ann is dissatisfied with Sebastian, will she poison him? Won't he be dead?

Philip was getting angrier the more he thought about it. In the end, he growled coldly, "I hate those who bend the law for personal gain the most. No matter who they are, if they violate the law, they will be punished by the law! Quinton, report everything to the police!"

"Yes, sir!" Quinton's cell phone was always in his hand. After receiving the order, Quinton quickly called the police.

"Philip!" Emma looked at Philip in disbelief. "Ann is my only daughter. If she is sentenced to jail, her reputation will be ruined forever. This punishment is too cruel. Can't you give her a lighter punishment for me?"

"No." Philip then announced firmly, "I have made it clear that no one can bend the law for personal gain. If one violates the law, one must be punished by the law. No one can be an exception!"

"Philip, you—" Emma looked at Philip pleadingly with tears glistening in her eyes. Her voice was trembling as she mumbled, "Can't you make an exception for me?"

"No!" Philip shouted.

Emma widened her eyes and looked at Philip in disbelief.

She couldn't believe the man would treat her like this.

Although she failed to marry Philip and her sister became Philip's wife, the woman who accompanied Philip the longest was Emma, instead of her sister.

Emma always thought Philip loved her and that in his heart, she was unique.

However, Emma was his sister-in-law; they couldn't be together due to the pressure of society.

Even if she failed to marry him and be his wife, she thought she was his confidante and a unique existence as compared to others.

If Emma asked about anything, Philip would meet her request despite all difficulties.

It was true in the past.

However, Philip didn't care for me when a tricky thing happened! Why is this happening?

Looking at Emma's disappointed expression, Sebastian couldn't help but grin sarcastically.

Emma was his mother's only younger sister. Before his mother's death, his mother had asked Philip to help care for Emma and Ann.

As Philip loved his wife, he listened to her every word. So, Philip cared for Emma like his sister and regarded Ann as his child.

However, they were not his true family.

Moreover, even if Emma was Philip's real sister and he had a niece he treated as his own, they were not as important as his son.

To put it bluntly, it was a matter of closeness and distance.

When the interest of Emma and Ann did not conflict with Philip, he could answer the plea.

However, when the interests were conflicted, Philip would safeguard his own interests instead.

It was normal, but Emma didn't think so.

She mistakenly thought her status in Philip's mind was higher than Sebastian's.

This was because Emma had a crush on Philip!

The revelation made Sebastian sick.

Since Sebastian was a child, Emma and Philip had treated each other in the same way. Just like earlier, Emma acted like a spoiled child to Philip when she was unhappy or trying to ask for something.

In the past, Sebastian hadn't thought about it much. Maybe he had seen it too much, and it was no longer a surprise to him anymore. He thought it was a habit that Emma had inherited from her youth. There was quite a gap between Emma's and Philip's age, so she regarded Philip as her elder brother and used to act like a spoiled child, so she could not change her habit even though she was getting older.

The relationship between them was something that Sebastian had gotten used to seeing ever since he was a child, so he never thought badly about it.

However, when his subordinate found out that Harriet killed her own sister to marry her brother-in-law, Robert, Sebastian understood the truth.

Emma did not have sibling love toward Philip—she had romantic feelings toward him!

Emma loved Philip.

The discovery made Sebastian sick.

He wondered if Emma had hurt his mother to kill her, just like Harriet.

Because of this, Sebastian could not sleep for a few days. As he lay in bed, he recalled the past and carefully analyzed everything.

The more he analyzed, the more confident he became that Emma had a crush on Philip.
