Secretly Married to a Wealthy Husband Chapter 522 – Chapter 522: Chapter 522: There is a Character ‘Yuan’

Chapter 522: Chapter 522: There is a Character ‘Yuan’
His deep eyes stared fixedly at her. Baron Stuart made no moves nor gestures, only calmly and motionlessly gazing at her before him.

At this time, Emily Walker’s feelings were all mixed up, indescribable; she was a little scared, a bit agitated, and more or less bewildered.

Having lived on this Earth for nearly 21 years, she discovered today that her parents were not her biological ones, something she found difficult to accept at the moment.

Seeing him unmoving and not intending to take down the mandarin duck stone, Emily impatiently stood up and left the dining table, heading towards the living room.

This action caused Baron Stuart’s brow to furrow even more.

Bella Stuart, who had been by his side, also looked at her blankly, not understanding what was going on with her today; it was so unlike her…

Entering the living room, Emily went straight up to the master bedroom on the second floor.

A moment later, Baron Stuart walked in. Seeing her lying on her side in bed, he approached her.

Emily lay in bed, her mind filled with what Angela Reid and Emma Hudson had said.

“What’s wrong with you?”

Only when a deep, sexy voice sounded did Emily come back to her senses and sit up in bed.

“Nothing, just… a little tired.” Her gaze darted away, not planning to let the man before her know anything until she had clarity on the situation.

Baron Stuart looked at her and immediately sat down on the edge of the bed.

Just a little tired? Tired enough to lose her temper?

“Are you telling me today not to let you go to work anymore?” Pulling her into his embrace, Baron Stuart lowered his head and spoke softly.

Emily couldn’t help but raise her head in surprise, her dark eyes looking straight into his. “When did I say that?”

It took her so much effort to finally convince him to let her work, how could she possibly say that!

“Aren’t you throwing a tantrum in front of me, asking why I agreed to let you work, blaming me for making you so tired?” Baron Stuart raised an incredulous eyebrow, speaking as if that were really the case.

“…” Emily stared blankly.

This man’s ability to understand others sometimes caught her off guard.

“I’m not talking about being tired from work, I mean…” Emily looked up, stopped mid-sentence, and glanced at the mandarin duck stone hanging at the collar of his shirt.

Reaching out, she touched the mandarin duck stone and became a little lost in thought.

Seeing her look like this, Baron Stuart’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Was her unusual behavior today somehow caused by this mandarin duck stone?

Releasing her, Baron Stuart took down the mandarin duck stone for her to examine more closely, hoping that in this way, he would figure out what was truly bothering her.

Emily held the mandarin duck stone between her fingertips and carefully observed it.

Was this mandarin duck stone really the same as the one Angela Reid had in her hands?

Was it truly the one she had hung on her daughter all those years ago?

All of a sudden, Emily’s starry eyes narrowed as if she had discovered something.

Bringing it closer, she took a careful look and found that on the artifact she had carried for 20 years, she had never noticed the word “mandarin duck” engraved in the center of the black and gray stone.

“What’s wrong?” Seeing her preoccupied expression and actions, Baron Stuart raised his eyebrows slightly and leaned his face closer as well.

“There’s a ‘mandarin duck’ character…” Emily blurted.

Baron Stuart’s brow furrowed slightly.

Her words suggested that she had only discovered the character today and had never noticed it before.

He remembered that the first time he found the item under her pillow, he had already seen the character clearly.

However, it seemed that without close inspection, it was indeed very difficult to spot.
