Chapter 1600

"wh- -What did you just say?" Emma could not believe that those were the words coming from

Jane. Though her father and uncle were in a feud, Emma was still a member of the Poole family.

T am still Alex's cousin. His cousin! I was polite enough to say hi to her and she’s asking me to

get away?’ she thought.

In the past seven to eight years, Emma had never spared a moment looking at Jane properly. No

one knew better than Emma in the Poole family and all of Kidon City that Alex would never marry

Jane. Jane was just nothing but a tool to him. Merely a tool.

Emma had mentioned to countless ladies of wealthy families in the elite community of Kidon City,

saying, "Just wait and see! Someday my second cousin is going to dump that woman Jane. If my

cousin and Lily can’t make things work, I will introduce him to you."

Those words were the reason why Emma managed to become the most powerful woman in

Kidon city for a time. However, her cousin Alex had overpowered her father Axel's position in

Kidon City, who had to back down to the point that he had to form an alliance with the Payne

family from star Island by supplying them with weapons. In the end, they could not even fend off

Sebastian Ford from South city for three days. 4

Sebastian and Alex were blood brothers; if the two joined hands, the second branch of the Poole

family would not survive. Axel desperately wanted to gain the support of old Master Shaw, his

teacher who retired in South City, but ever since Old Master Shaw found his daughter, he had

really grown much older and no longer wanted to be involved in things that happened out there

in the world.

Axel and his descendants were withering away. Emma had gotten Lily to come back from

overseas with every possible method she had, in hopes that she could get closer to Alex with

Lily's help and attempt to resolve the differences they had with the Poole family, but never had

she imagined that Alex's love for Lily would fade.

‘That b*tch Lily! she is just too dramatic! Ever since she came back into the country, she wouldn’t

even refrain at all and has crossed so many lines, she probably thinks that she is still under

Alex's protection, but Lily is nothing without Alex! If it wasn't for my father, who protected her by

sending her to Holden Payne, Lily might just be dead at the hands of Alex by now. In the end,

this woman, Jane, is just lucky. Who knew that after four months, Alex could still manage to find

her. Not to mention that the child in her belly is still there and her belly has already grown so

much; it seems like she is going to turn the tables with her child! ’ she thought. 1

Emma could tell how Alex felt about Jane from his expression, which was why she caught on to

the opportunity to suck up to Jane, she had thought that Jane would be grateful that Alex took

her back and would see this as an opportunity to form connections with the Pooles, but she had

not anticipated for Jane to speak to her in such a manner. 2

"You...!" Emma was furious, but did not dare to speak. What she had wanted to say was, ‘You

are acting all high and mighty now, but be careful, Alex might just kick you out again once you

give birth to that child in your belly!’

She mumbled to herself for a short while, before whining, "My sister-in-law, I am going to be your

cousin-in-law. I never would have imagined thatyou would hate me so much. Did I do anything

wrong?" 2

Jane stared at Emma with a cold and stern expression. "Do you really think I wouldn't know?"

"Know what?"

"You saw that I was getting close with Sabrina and her friends. You are already jealous of her to

begin with, and so you are scared that Alex might actually marry me, leaving you and your sister

in the Poole family no place to survive once I team up with Sabrina. That' s why you called Lily

back from overseas in a hurry overnight, didn't you?" 2

"..." Emma did not respond. She did not know that Jane had figured her intentions out.
