Wolf President Hooks Up novel Chapter 182

Emmett immediately turns sulky.

He takes out his mobile phone and dials Elaine’s number.

Nobody picks up.

“Damn! Don’t she know she needs my permission to go off work at lunch?”

Emmett curses softly. He doesn’t want to show his temper in front of Jasper, so he tries to leave his anger behind, and focus on discussing the project in the Sahara Desert with Jasper.

After a while, Jasper remembers, “I saw Oliver’s car downstairs when I came up. Didn’t he come here?”

“Who?”

Emmett lifts his eyes and stares at Jasper.

It is a dubious and cold look.

Jaspers feels scared, “Did I said something wrong? I just came back, and I know nothing!” Jasper thinks.

“Oliver’s car. It looks like Oliver’s car.”

“Oliver was at downstairs?” Emmett knocks the table with his fingertips, trying to connect the dots between Oliver appearance and Elaine’s disappearance.

“Shit!” Emmett throws away the pen he is holding and curses loudly.

Jasper doesn’t know why Emmett is pissed off.

Little did he know, Emmett is jealous. Extremely jealous.

Jasper feels that something is wrong when he walks out of Emmett’s office.

When he arrives in his office, he cleans up his desk, then makes a call to Lucas.

“Lucas.”

“Jasper, how are you doing there?”

“I’m back in the office now.”

“That’s fast. Dinner is on me tonight then!”

“Save it. We are all overwhelmed by work here. Everyone needs to work overtime.”

“Since you are back, you need to know this. Something big happened.”

“What happened?”

“Oliver and Emmett turn against each other.”

“What?”

Jasper is shocked after Lucas has done explaining what happen the other night.

He is sweating.

He did say something wrong just now when he was in Emmett’s office.

“Lucas, I am dead. I mentioned Oliver when I was in Emmett’s office earlier. I am so dead.”

Jasper mumbles.

Lucas rubs his forehead over the head. He prays for Oliver.

“It’s fine. We’ve all died before. You’re not the first. I have no idea how this is going to end unless one of them give up on Elaine.”

Jasper says firmly, “I can assure you that Emmett is not going to give up. He is not the kind of person that would change his mind because of what people say.”

Lucas sighs, “This is why it is a sad thing to see. Oliver seems to be pretty serious this time too. He is determined to get Elaine.”

Both of Jasper and Lucas remain silent after. They don't know what to do about the situation too.

Oliver and Elaine go to the hospital to check on Oliver’s wound.

Elaine gasps the moment she sees the wound.

She starts to tear.

The wound is long and deep. There are many stitches on it, and Elaine could still see the bruises under the skin.

It is horrifying.

Oliver raises his head, and he sees Elaine tearing. He smiles at her to comfort her, “I’m fine. It doesn’t hurt anymore. Don’t be worried.”

Elaine bites her lips, and her voice is shaky, “It must have hurt so much.”

Oliver holds Elaine’s hand and put it in front of his chest. She could feel his heartbeat.

“It doesn’t hurt at all with you by my side.”

Elaine stuns.

How can she be unmoved when multiple confession comes from a handsome guy like Oliver?

But the feeling she had towards him isn’t the kind that lovers have.

“Oliver, I’m sorry but I…”

Oliver knows what Elaine is going to say. He stops her immediately, “Don’t say it, Elaine. Pieces of advice don't always work. Don’t you have to go back to work? I will send you back to the office now.”

When they arrive at the office building, Oliver opens the door and helps Elaine out of the car. Elaine stuns the moment she raises her head.

Emmett is standing right in front of the main entrance.

His arms akimbo and stares coldly at Oliver and Elaine.

His brows are furrow, and he looks like he is going to breathe fire out of his eyes.

Emmett looks inapproachable.

The staffs hide in the corner of the lobby, wondering why Emmett decides to stand in front of the main entrance.

Elaine doesn’t know what to say. She has lost for words the moment her eyes meet Emmett’s.

Oliver is surprised to see Emmett too. He sneers after pausing for a second.

Emmett compresses his lips, roll his sleeves up and walks towards Oliver and Elaine.

Elaine’s heart is racing. She has a feeling like she is going to die today as Emmett walks towards her.

Emmett squints his eyes, and everyone could feel the coldness he has in his eyes.

Elaine shivers by only looking at Emmett’s eyes.

The gentleness in Emmett disappears again?

Oliver takes a step forward and pulls Elaine further away from Emmett with his injured hand.

Elaine immediately realizes, “No, Oliver is injured. I can’t let him take the punches for me.”

So, Elaine too takes a step forward, opens her arms and stand in front of Olive. She has her lips compressed and thinking, “This is it!”

She rushes forward Emmett and says, “Emmett, if you want to beat someone up, punch me. Leave Oliver alone.”

Elaine is scared, and her voice is shaky.

Oliver is worried. He tries to pull her away, “What are you doing, Elaine? Come behind me.”

Oliver is the young master of the Young family. He doesn’t need a woman to protect him no matter how seriously injured he is.

“If you want to beat someone, then punch me! Oliver, stand behind me. You are injured!”

Elaine raises her chin and straightens her back. She is trying to show her inner heroine.

Emmett stops at a distance away from Oliver and Elaine. He sneers in anger.

“Hey, Elaine. I can see that you would die for your lover boy, huh? How lovely.”

Emmett’s words are like swords stabbing into Elaine’s heart.

Amongst the coldness in his words, there is also jealousy.

What a joke, Elaine! Do you want to protect Oliver now?

Spending only a short afternoon with him and you fell for him already?

Is he your baby boy now?

“No matter what you say, Oli is injured. You can’t do this to an injured person! Be reasonable! Don’t reason with your fist!”

“Oli?” Emmett clenches his teeth, “You are calling him that now?”

Emmett is a sensitive person. He realizes Elaine changes how she addresses Oliver.

It was only yesterday that Elaine is still referring to Oliver as Master Young.

And she is calling him Oli now? So intimately?

Emmett clenches his fist. He is too angry.

“What’s wrong with that?”

Elaine widens her eyes and tries to make herself look brave.

Oliver sighs, “Emmett, do you have to be this petty? I asked her to call me Oli. You know, since we are fighting over her, shouldn’t you get used to the new norm?”

“Shut up!” Emmett stares at Oliver in furious. He takes a few deep breaths, “Don’t get in between of a couple. Elaine and I don’t need your interference.”

“I can’t do that. If you are as great as you said, marry Elaine then! I won’t disturb her if you marry her. Can you do it? No? Then don’t come and take out your furry here. We are all on equal ground. We are all only a man who is trying to pursue Elaine!”

Emmett takes a few deep breaths, again, trying to calm his tone, “Oli, we are friends for years. I don’t want to ruin our friendship. You are always a little brother to me. I have given you so many things, can’t you let me have Elaine this time?”

Oliver wobbles slightly the moment he hears what Emmett says. His words do affect him. Oliver chokes, “I tried. I really tried, but I can’t do it. I didn’t want to ruin our friendship either, but I couldn’t give up on Elaine.”

Emmett sneers, “Then, don’t blame me!”

Elaine is startled by what Emmett says.

What is he going to do to Oliver?

Oliver nods, “I’ll be waiting. Emmett, don’t forget that JY Group isn’t the kind of company that you can toy around. Furthermore, wealth isn’t the key to winning a lady’s heart.”

Emmett and Oliver stare at each other from a distance.

“Elaine, come over,” Emmett reaches out his hand to Elaine.

When Elaine is about to walk towards Emmett, she pauses and turns around. She says to Oliver, “Go home now. Take good care of your arms.”

Emmett squints his eyes as Elaine talks to Oliver.

Oliver nods, “I will. I will call you later.”

Emmett can’t stand it anymore. He is so jealous now. He grabs Elaine over, put his arms around her, and brings her back into the office building.
