Emily, The Mute Girl

Emily, The Mute Girl
Jeremy agreed


"Jeremy.." Clarissa's soft voice resuscitated Jeremy, making him turn his head.


"What's wrong?" tanyanya while rubbing Clarissa's head slowly.


"Does that mean we can get married?" ask her with a glowing face.


"Hmm." murmured Jeremy, his mind still troubled by the attitude of Emily who wanted a divorce from him.


In the room, Emily breathed. He looked at Aunt Liana who was still crying while hugging him. He patted Aunt Liana's back so she could calm down, after which she let go of his embrace.


'Don't be too sad, Auntie.' she cues.


"How can aunt..." Emily hastily cuts off Aunt Liana's words.


'i mean. I never loved her at all, so I felt nothing at all when I saw them alone, nor when I said I wanted to part with her.


Aunt Liana was stunned. Is that true?


"lik! If it's true that Miss doesn't love Mister, why does Miss always pray for her?" tanyakanya.


Emily waved her hand.


'It is the duty of a wife to pray for her husband's safety. But that doesn't mean I love him. I only respect him as because of his status as my husband. Now that he has found his love, shouldn't I also seek my own happiness? After I part with him, I will be free. And maybe I'll find a man who sincerely loves me.'


Seeing what Emily said, made Aunt Liana go silent for a while. Then cry again.


"But, Miss. Where is Miss going?" tanyanya.


'I don't know yet. But, Auntie. Remember, do not let this news sound out, ' said Emily warned.


******


Jeremy squeezed his hand tightly. He thought about what Aunt Liana said just now. She called the woman as soon as she came out of Emily's room, and asked her what they were talking about inside.


"Young Miss wants to acknowledge Miss Clarissa as her cousin, so that no one would suspect her as Lord's mistress. Young Miss thinks very highly of your feelings. He did not want Tuan to be considered a savage man and a cheap woman. That's why he planned all this. Sir, I'm sorry, if Young Miss really leaves, I'll stop here, and follow wherever she goes." That was what Aunt Liana said.


Jeremy is confused, what did Emily do so much that Aunt Liana supported her?


*****


Today, Jeremy and Wawan, along with Emily, sat in the living room to discuss Emily's request last night. The existence of Pak Wawan there is as a translator. Jeremy himself was confused, why all the servants in his Mansion could understand what Emily said about his hand.


He looked at Emily very closely.


"I don't want my time wasted here. I've heard everything from Aunt Liana. Pretending to be dead, I didn't think about this at all because of me..." Jeremy stopped when he saw Emily waving her hand. He looked at Pak Wawan.


'Think I won't part from you?' said Pak Wawan interpret.


Jeremy took a breath. Emily's guess is correct.


"Your father was worth a try last night? But are you sure? If you die, then your family legacy will be entirely mine. And I can't possibly give it to you, because our extended family will be suspicious. You can't use your current identity either." Jeremy explained.


Despite the many questions in his mind, Jeremy still held back his calm expression.


"So, what's your plan?" tanyakanya.


Emily then said all her plans, and helped by Pak Wawan, Jeremy listened quietly. He admitted that his wife's plan was very thorough, he even thought about the reputation of himself and Clarissa.


After saying everything, Emily said goodbye and went into her room. Leaving Pak Wawan and Jeremy who had not stopped tapping the table with his finger.


Rather than planning an accident, Emily prefers to pretend that she is sick with leukemia, a disease that is very difficult to cure. At first he chose to be a widower rather than marry someone who carries a burden for him, but when he heard Emily's wishes, inexplicably, Jeremy was no longer sure of his intentions.


"Young Master.." Pak Wawan's voice resuscitated Jeremy's daydream.


Jeremy's looking. "Call Doctor Darren. Have him clear his schedule tonight, and have him come here."


"Good, Sir." Wawan nodded in understanding.


Jetemy then goes to meet Clarissa in the guest room. He had lunch with Clarissa today. He had to do his treasure well.


******


In her room, Emily breathed a sigh of relief. He did not expect to think of an idea that quickly.


"Miss looks so happy" said Aunt Liana who was suddenly in her room.


Ah, actually it was not sudden, Aunt Liana had knocked on the door several times, but because there was no answer from Emily, she was forced to go in to check on the employer, who was daydreaming with a smile.


Emily turned her head and slowly moved her hand.


'of course. Soon I will be free from this place.'


Aunt Liana was silent. "Didn't Miss like being here?"


Now that Emily was silent, she realized she had uttered the wrong words.


'It's not like that. Of course I really like it here, because there are aunties and others who want to be my friends. But I also want to explore the world. And here's my chance.' cue Emily.


"Miss.. To be honest, I still wish you two could be together. Right now there may not be any love between you, but isn't that natural? Remembering you guys have only been together for two months. If you stay together much longer, you will definitely be the happiest family." said Aunt Liana at length.


Emily clasped Aunt Liana's hand with a smile and shook her head.


'I'm sorry, Auntie..'


Although disappointed, Aunt Liana tried to accept it.


"All right, I get it, miss. Then, where will Miss go after parting ways?"


Emily did not answer immediately. Actually, he was confused too. He actually did not want to do plastic surgery on his face, after all, he had rejected the offer of money from Jeremy. It seemed like he was going far away to a deserted village, which was very difficult for outsiders to access. He remembered the village of W, in the city of N, which was located in the middle of the valley. It would be hard to find him if he was there. Looks like that's the only place he's going to go. He was sure he could find a decent job there.


Seeing him just silent, Aunt Liana was sure, Her miss has not had any plans. Therefore, he offered the food he brought earlier so that Emily ate.
