Undoubtedly, Desmond was not mainly concerned about Emma. He was merely worried that Thomas would cut ties
with him if anything happened to her. By then, he would lose his share of profit for sure.
Emma had no choice but to be frank with them. “At this point, I'll tell you the truth. Zeke is Amelia's biological
father. I'll stay by his side forever unless death parts us!”
Zeke was utterly speechless. That's too much! My goodness! She has just lied to them that I'm his husband without
my consent. And now, I've even become Amelia's father? After all, I'm the Great Marshal. Where's her respect for
me, huh? But it seems impossible for me to clarify anything now. Fine, what can I say other than let it be?
Emma was indeed spelling trouble for herself. Her words sent both Desmond and Madeline into a frenzy of rage.
Madeline fumed, “Scumbag! You sure don't have any sense of shame. How could you have the audacity to be back
again? Back then, you abandoned Amelia and left. Do you know how much my daughter has been enduring all this
while raising Amelia by herself? I would rather you die a horrible death and won't be back forever! Scumbag! I must

She continued to wail in a grimace, “Emma, you should move on without turning back to the hard-hearted man who
had broken your heart. When he abandoned you years ago, you should've realized his true colors. So why are you
thinking of going back to him again? Oh my! How could I have a daughter who is such a spineless coward like
you?!”
The next moment, they were about to throw their fists at Zeke again.
Grief-stricken, Emma shrieked, “Everyone, get lost! I'll count to three. If you insist on doing that, I'll jump out from
here! One! Two...”
“No! Don't jump! We're leaving now!” Panic-stricken, Madeline and Desmond dashed out of the ward at once.
No one knew better about Emma's temperament than Madeline. She never doubted that her relatively tenacious
daughter would jump out of the window if they did not give in to her.
Even so, she and Desmond never stopped lambasting Zeke, threatening him to leave even after they were out of
the ward.
Meanwhile, Zeke broke the awkward silence by advising Emma, “Get down from there first.”
Blushed crimson, Emma got down from the window. “Mr. Williams, I'm sorry. I had no choice but to lie to them and
make use of you as my shield. I really don't wish to marry Thomas Fleming!”
Zeke nodded. “Don't worry. I understand.”
Emma asked him tactfully, “Mr. Williams, would you mind doing me another favor?”
Zeke replied casually, “Just tell me.”
Emma uttered warily, “Would you mind sending me back to the bar? You may leave after that. Back then, I left with
Amelia and started managing it, mainly to track down my father's whereabouts. Apart from that, I've been hiding
from Thomas. It never occurred to me that he hadn't given up even after so many years.”
Taking a deep breath, Zeke replied, “It's all right. Just take your time staying here for your recovery. I'll see it
through in helping you.”

Zeke explained, “You don't have to be bothered by that so-called Thomas or Mr. Fleming again. I'll get the matter
settled for you. But of course, you've to assist me in carrying out the military affairs. However, never ask me what
the affair is all about. As it's national confidentiality, I'm not supposed to disclose anything to you.”
Emma shook her head. “Mr. Williams, you might not be aware of how powerful he is. Not to mention, the business
group owned by his family...”
Zeke waved at her confidently. “Regardless of how powerful he is, he is still not comparable to me.”
Emma held her tongue. Deep down, she could not resist but scoff. What gives you the courage to say so, huh?
As something came across her mind abruptly, she asked curiously, “Oh, by the way, Mr. Williams, how did we flee
from Asger Manor?”
She seems clueless about what happened in Asger Manor as she had passed out before I revealed my identity as
the Great Marshal. Zeke was about to tell her the truth, but Amelia yelled out preemptively, “Zee asked many
soldiers to go over! They took the bad guys away and saved us!”
Soldiers? Emma was stunned. “Where did the soldiers come from?”
