Second Chances Protecting Mrs. Hall by Colby Stanford novel Chapter 179

Chapter 179 

Emma threw a punch. “Do you think I’ll not kick your ass?” 

Only a player like Erza would dare to tease Emma like this. 

Erza covered his head and fled. “I was wrong. Sorry.” 

They chatted and laughed as they walked around the campus. 

Under a pine tree in the distance, Faith clenched her fists. Her nails dug into her palms as she watched everything jealously. She thought, ‘Erza, I’ve liked you for 10 years.” 

Faith had never seen Erza so devoted to any girl. 

Faith stared at Emma’s back and her eyes suddenly turned cold. She thought, ‘Emma… I won’t let you have it easy!” 

The Halls Group meeting today was related to the new project. It was a serious matter, and everyone felt anxious. 

Only Liam was calm and composed. It was obvious he had everything under control for this negotiation. 

As expected, the project ended up in the hands of Liam’s team. There was no suspense. 

After the meeting ended, Simon suddenly said, “Liam, stay for a bit.” 

Levi understood at once. He bowed and left first. 

Only Liam and Simon were left in the room. 

Liam instantly knew Simon wanted to talk about private matters. 

Simon clenched his fists and cleared his throat. He went straight to the point, “I’m not satisfied with Emma. I hope you can separate. If you agree, all my shares and assets will be notarized–immediately and transferred to you. You should know what I mean.” 

Simon knew how capable his two sons were. However, the matter of inheritance had never been settled. He had 

his considerations. 

These words undoubtedly meant Liam would be officially listed as the heir, 

This was the position Brad wanted his entire life. If Liam agreed, Brad’s plan would fail. 

However, Simon’s condition was to separate from Emma.

Liam’s face instantly turned as cold as ice. Without any hesitation, he spat out, “No.”

Liam refused so quickly that Simon was surprised. The dignified middle–aged Simon instantly glared at Liam. “Do you know what you’re saying?” 

“I know.” Liam stood up immediately. There was no room for negotiation on this. “I will not leave Emma, no matter the conditions, threats, or consequences.” 

It was a triple refusal. Liam’s tone was firm and resolute. He pushed his 

-way and left. 

Simon sat alone on the chair with his face flushed. The veins on his forehead were bulging, and his hands trembled 

with anger. 

Derek was a little worried. He had never seen Simon so angry before. He hurriedly went forward to comfort him. “Mr. Simon, it’s not healthy to be so angry. Mr. Liam might not be able to accept it for a while. He might change his mind in the future.” 

Simon shook his head. “He’s so disobedient.” 

Simon knew his son best. Liam had been alone since he was young. Once he made up his mind, no one could change his mind. It seemed like it was time for him to take action. He definitely could not let his most outstanding 

heir die for a woman. 

Simon’s eyes darkened. “What’s the name of the girl you mentioned last time?” 

“You mean Faith Jennings?” Derek asked. 

“Yes. Her,” Simon said. 

Derek said, “She’s Emma’s classmate. They had a conflict not long ago.” 

“I know.” Simon narrowed his eyes meaningfully. “The Jennings family’s business has been bleak all these years. She likes that Burnson family’s son, but he doesn’t like her.” 

Simon continued, “Tell her that if she does as I say, I can get her what she wants.” 

Simon had a piece of information that no one else had. With this information and Faith’s help, this time, he could make Emma disappear from Liam’s side forever. 

The next day, Emma woke up early for morning exercise. 

Summer had passed, and it was autumn. It was getting colder and dawn came later.

Though Emma woke up at the same time, the sky, which used to be starting to light up, was still dark out. 

Emma took a breath every three steps and ran at a uniform speed. Suddenly, a figure caught up to her from 

behind. 

“Hey, Emma. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.” That girl panted as she ran up to Emma. “I was right. You come here to exercise early every day.” 

Emma did not look at the person, but she remembered the voice. It had been a few months since she woke up 

early to train on the field. but she had never seen Faith. 

Emma did not stop. As she ran, she asked expressionlessly, “Why are you waiting for me?” 

Seeing Emma was willing to talk to her, Faith smiled and said, “I’ve thought about it carefully. We were wrong last time, but that wasn’t my idea. No matter what, it’s my fault that I didn’t stop them. I’m the one who let you down. 

Let’s make up.” 

Emma did not speak. She didn’t agree or refuse. Emma just felt that Faith wasn’t her friend to begin with. It didn’t 

matter if they reconciled or not. She didn’t care. 

Faith was a little anxious when she saw that Emma was silent. “I know my results aren’t as good as Lane’s, and I don’t have anything good to show for. You might not like me as a friend, but I sincerely want to apologize.” 

“Okay,” Emma said and increased her running speed. It was obvious she wanted to leave Faith behind. 

“Okay? Just that?‘ Faith thought. She clenched her fists even tighter and rushed forward with all her might. “In that case, take this. Consider it my apology gift to you.” She laughed.
