My Ex, Please Love Me Again

Since Eric had come for revenge, he would not spare anyone from their Hughes family. Look how he had treated the Sullivan family before.

Yvonne was innocent, but he still showed no mercy.

Julian had to arrange everything nicely. After hanging up, he told Emelia about the investigation, who covered her mouth in shock.

Was Eric actually the brother of Winnie?

Was he here for revenge?

Julian half leaned against the bed, pinching his forehead wearily, “Whatever, mom shouldn’t have been so pushy to Winnie back then, or else Winnie wouldn’t have committed suicide because of the gossips.”

If she hadn’t jumped off the building, maybe her parents would bear the brunt, and their family would not have been ruined.

Seeing his tired look, Emelia couldn’t resist feeling sorrowful when she remembered that he still had blood clots in his brain.

She stepped forward and gently wrapped her arms around him, saying in helplessness, “Vengeance has a way of rebounding on one’s self. When is this going to end?”

No matter what happened back then, Eric would not get away with all the bad things he had done now.

Julian half-embraced her and decided, “Go to the Capital for a few days. As the Longerich family will protect you, Eric won’t dare do anything to you for now.”

The Longerich family was powerful, and they could mobilize the military, so it was the safest place for Emelia.

Emelia shook her head immediately, “How can I leave you alone in this situation?”

“Besides, your condition is unstable now. I won’t go.” Emelia was firm.

It would be okay if Julian had only suffered a trauma. Still, the blood stasis in his brain had not dissipated, so Emelia could not feel at ease.

Julian tightened his hug and sighed. “I’m afraid I can’t protect you well. Eric is too heartless. None of us knows what he will do.”

Emelia considered for a while, “I know I can’t help you much if I stay, but I want to leave after your test results come out.”

“Okay,” Julian answered.

No soon, he said apologetically, “I was thinking of making engagement once I got a discharge, but now it seems that I have to hold it on for a while.”

Eric was like a time bomb buried around them. No one would be interested in other things until Eric was arrested.

Emelia naturally understood him and said softly, “It’s okay.”

Otherwise, Eric would trouble them more, so they would distract themselves even if they wanted to talk about engagement.

The incident was so bad that after speaking to Emelia on the phone, Vincent flew to Riverside City the same day, bringing one of his cousins who worked in the public security system.

In Julian’s ward, Vincent was serious, “We can’t allow Eric to do wrong again. Now that he has run riot, we will find evidence.”

That cousin said, “We can try to start with Yvonne to see if she can tell us something that will benefit us.”

“I have thought about it.” Julian said, “But I’m afraid that Yvonne is now brainwashed by Eric that she won’t believe that Eric is the culprit, so she won’t help us.”

“Besides, I guess she won’t see any of us either.” Julian also worried about this.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

The cousin sighed emotionally, “Eric is too cunning and clever.”

Julian added, “I had someone check out the driver who crashed Winnie’s family. The information we got before was that the driver was divorced and all alone, but I think there must be a loophole.”

“How could he agree to do such a bad thing for Eric if he had concerns about nothing?”

“You’re right.” Vincent picked up, “Eric must have given that driver a large sum of money, and we can figure out after finding its whereabouts.”

Julian received a phone call when the conversation came to an end.

It was the person Julian had arranged to keep an eye on the house where Caroline and Heather lived, “Eric has just moved in next door, and he seemed to be getting on well with the young lady.”

“What!” Julian was furious.

Even Yvonne had been fooled by Eric, let alone Caroline.

She would easily fool by Eric, who was handsome, since she was fond of pretty guys a lot.

Once Eric manipulated her, Julian could not imagine what would happen.

“I see. You guys keep going on.” Julian was anxious a bit more after hanging up, which was rare for him.

Vincent and the others were shocked and angry when they heard that Eric had moved in with Heather and Caroline as neighbors. None of them had expected Eric to take this step. He was really scheming and calculating.

Vincent said, “Then let them move out quickly.”

Julian felt much more depressed, “Heather is reasonable, but Caroline….”

Julian knew well that Caroline would not move out, not for any other reason, just because she liked going against him.

Stupid girl, who could never tell what was more critical, lived only for breathing.

He had just smashed a cup at her the other day to let her remove from the Hughes family, and now she would refuse deliberately to move out without hesitation. Even if they told her that Eric would hurt her or even kill her.

Vincent was furious, “What’s the matter with her? It’s a matter of life and death now. She is so willful!”

According to his actions before, it was highly likely that Eric would turn against Heather and Caroline.

Emelia gently comforted Julian, “Call your mom first, tell her what Eric has done, and see if she can convince Caroline to move out quickly.”

Now Julian had no other choice but to call Heather first.

Heather was easy to persuade, for he knew she was afraid of death.

Heather’s voice trembled after she learned about what Eric had done and his identity.

“He’s Winnie McCarthy’s brother?”

“I’ll move right away.” Heather said with unparalleled determination, “I’ll ask Caroline to move. I’ll get her out even if I have to knock her out.”

After that, she hung up. Julian made another call to the man, asking him to help Heather get Caroline out of the house.
