Second Chances Protecting Mrs. Hall by Colby Stanford novel Chapter 129

Chapter 129 

Leroy’s words undoubtedly hit Bob’s sore spot. 

Emma subconsciously looked at Bob. 

His thin face had a cold expression. “I only do what I am supposed to do!” 

After saying that, he looked at Emma and Ida. “Let’s go and return the Tear of the Moon!” 

Emma and Ida nodded when they saw this. 

“Clap, clap, clap!” Suddenly, there was a loud and clear applause. 

Three people walked out of the wooden hut. Two of them were blond and blue–eyed foreigners. The last one was 

Marsh. 

They looked at Emma, Ida, and Bob with admiration. 

One of the blond–haired, blue–eyed foreigners said, “I am the curator of the Zima Museum! Thank you for protecting the Tear of the Moon! Congratulations on passing the test!” 

When everyone saw this scene, they instantly understood the truth. 

Emma’s guess was right. All of this was just a test. 

It was a test to see if anyone could keep their bottom line when faced with temptation and if they would forget their original intention. 

“I can’t believe it… I can’t believe it!” The person who snatched the diamond from Ida wished he could find a hole 

to hide in. 

It was also because of his impulsiveness that his team failed. 

“Bob…” He looked at Bob guiltily. 

Bob, who had always been expressionless, actually frowned impatiently for the first time. 

The assistants beside Leroy quickly announced that Emma’s team had won. 

As soon as the results were announced, Bob’s team members were dissatisfied. 

A person said, “Why did Emma’s team win? Didn’t Lane try to steal the diamond just now?” 

Someone said, “That’s right. If the teammate makes a mistake and the captain has to be punished, then Emma will also fail the test.” 

Someone else said, “That’s right! Bob–tried to help just now. Why did Emma get first place?”

At this moment, Ida stood up on her tiptoes. “Why are you like this? You saw it just now. When that person snatched the diamond from my hand, Lane went to stop him like Emma!” 

A person said, “So what!” 

Another person said, “Yeah, so what?” 

Ida panicked. “You guys…” 

At this moment, Lane stood up. 

She lowered her head and said, “Ladmit that I was indeed selfish just now. I’m not worthy of this honor. I’m willing to withdraw.” 

If Emma had not told her that this was a test, she was not confident that she would not do something bad. 

With Lane’s withdrawal, the others had nothing to say. 

Her face was still red, and she was ashamed of what she had just done. 

However, she did not regret it because she really needed that money. 

However, what Lane did not know was that Emma had seen her emotions. 

Just as the crowd was getting excited, Leroy said blankly, “In that case, the winner of this round is Emma, Ida, and Bob! Three people tied for first place!” 

This was Ida’s first time obtaining individual points. 

She was so happy that she almost jumped up. It was the pain in her feet that stopped her from acting rashly. Lane held her in her arms. 

The total score was soon announced. This year’s outstanding campers were Emma and Bob. 

After getting the outstanding camper, Emma immediately called Liam. “Hubby, I did it! I can graduate early!” 

Emma was indescribably excited. 

Graduating early meant that she could have more time to do what she liked. 

She had more time to be with Liam. 

It was autumn, there was dazzling rain. 

However, Emma did not seem to notice it at all. Even when she walked, she could not help but tiptoe excitedly. 

On the phone, Liam’s voice was deep and doting. “Turn around and look behind you.” 

Before Emma could react, she turned around in a daze.

Chapter 129 

She saw a handsome man in black standing not far away from her with a long black umbrella. 

When Emma saw him, her beautiful eyes instantly lit up. 

She ran towards him and threw herself into his arms. “Honey!” 

Emma was really happy to see him. 

Seeing her reaction, Liam, who never liked to smile, actually smiled happily in public. 

Liam put the phone back in his pocket. 

He held the umbrella with his other hand and picked her up with one hand. 

“Did you miss me?” His voice was hoarse. 

“Of course I do!” Emma looked up at Liam Hall and said coquettishly, “It’s raining. Other students are picked up by their parents. I thought I had to go home alone.” 

“How can that be?” He put her back on the ground, his palm gently stroking her hair. “Silly, I have to come and get 

you.” 

Emma hugged his hand. “I love you…” 

Emma and Liam held an umbrella and walked out of the field side by side. 

No one saw that not far away, Bob’s right hand, which was holding the umbrella, silently drooped down. 

At night, Liam was rarely unoccupied with work.. 

Instead, he accompanied Emma to watch a movie at Icovine Estate’s home theater. 

Emma didn’t even have time to watch the movie playing on the projector because, from the moment she entered the room, Liam had been disturbing her. 

One moment, he would kiss her lips, and the next moment, he would hold her in his arms and not let go no matter 

what. 

The two of them were making out when Liam’s phone rang. 

“Hello.” His voice was unhappy. After all, Emma’s first night home was interrupted. 

On the other end of the phone, Levi sounded a little anxious. “Mr. Hall, bad news! Mr. Quinn is critically ill!” 

The home theater was quiet. 

Emma’s hearing was outstanding, so she immediately heard Levi’s words. “What’s going on? He was fine during the award ceremony in the morning. Why is he suddenly critically ill?”

Moreover, during the last competition, he still had the leisure to act and deliberately test them.
