Chapter 340 Finalize Your Marriage to My Son
He paused for a moment, lowering the car window by a finger’s width. “Speak. What do you want?”
Emily hesitated, unsure of how to respond.
“What are you doing here?” Lucas, who was returning with his breakfast, felt a sense of unease wash
over him when he saw Emily.
Lately, Emily had been bombarding him with text messages, and slowly, their relationship had grown
closer.
Emily discreetly hid the black bag behind her back and smiled. “Nope. Nothing.”
As Lucas skeptically opened the car door, Emily swiftly pushed him aside, forcefully flinging the
contents of the black bag toward Joseph. Reacting quickly, Joseph picked up a nearby newspaper to
shield himself. Though he managed to block most of the spills from the bag, a small portion splattered
onto his suit.
Inside the car, the air became saturated with a repugnant and nauseating smell, a revolting
combination of onion, blue cheese, and an unidentified gray liquid that emitted a pungent aroma. The

The fatigue on Joseph’s face vanished, replaced by a menacing expression as his temples throbbed
with veins. Lucas’ eyes widened as he shouted, “Are you trying to get yourself killed?!”
He did not utter curses or hurl insults at her. Lucas genuinely believed that Emily was deliberately
seeking her own demise. Joseph had an extreme aversion to uncleanliness, and she had undoubtedly
just triggered his wrath.
Emily’s heart raced with fear, but she summoned her courage and stood her ground before Joseph.
She stared directly at him and delivered her words with conviction.
“If I could afford to pay for your car, I would’ve already poured paint on it. This is the treatment that a
despicable creature like you deserves! Having money doesn’t give you the right to trample on other
people’s feelings. Those who commit adultery in a marriage deserve divine retribution!
“I can’t believe I once thought you weren’t that kind of scum. Lucas, make sure that you prepare oyster
shooters for this jerk every day to prevent the early onset of erectile dysfunction!”
Lucas anxiously covered her mouth. “Shut your mouth!”
“Mmm… mmm…” Emily struggled to express her indignation, but Lucas kept a firm cover on her
mouth, preventing her from speaking and making it difficult for her to breathe.
While Lucas missed the key point, Joseph caught it. He commanded Lucas, “Take her to my office.”
Inside Fairlight, Emily continued to mutter and complain. “You’re just a slave to your boss. Whatever
Joseph tells you to do, you do it. Whoever marries you in the future is one unlucky woman! Joseph’s a
scumbag. Birds of a feather flock together, so you’re no good either!”
Lucas could not help but feel a sense of powerlessness. He could not comprehend why Emily had to
behave so irrationally. After all, it was Chloe who had deceived Joseph in the first place. Both parties
had their share of blame, and on top of that, Emily had been venting her frustrations for an entire
month. Was that not enough?
In the office, Joseph exuded a powerful aura, causing Emily’s feigned courage to gradually fade.
“Why did you bring me here?” she asked, her voice faltering.
“You were talking about n
“You were talking about me just now?” Joseph asked.

“Who told you about it?”
Looking at the towering man before her, Emily gritted her teeth and hissed, “You’ve betrayed your
marriage! You’re nothing but a despicable man with a chaotic personal life!”
Joseph’s eyes narrowed, and a thought that made his blood boil flashed through his mind. He picked
up his car keys and strode away. Although the likelihood of this possibility was minuscule, he could not
wait to verify it.
Concerned about Joseph’s unstable emotions in recent days, Lucas hurriedly chased after him.
Emily stood in place, her face filled with regret as she called Chloe.
“Damn it!” Emily cursed under her breath, filled with regret and embarrassment. How could she have let
slip such humiliating and shameful words in front of Joseph? She berated herself for her impulsive
outburst, realizing that the scumbag might even twist her words into a source of pride.
The call connected, and she quickly said, “Coco, I just scolded Joseph a moment ago and accidentally
let something slip. He might come looking for you now…”
The Johnson Group.
Icarus’ mother scrutinized Chloe and said, “My son was disfigured because of you. Since you just
barely meet the standards of becoming my daughter-in-law, let’s discuss the wedding date and finalize
the marriage.”
