Chapter 1308
Kent was driving, and they were headed to the company. Upon reaching the thirty-ninth floor, Emily had barely sat
down when she suddenly got a message from
Martin:
“Emily, I’m really sorry, and no amount of words can express my guilt. Last night, I didn’t sleep a wink, but I didn’t
dare disturb you. My mom found out in the hospital that I’d fallen for a girl and then dug up your family
background. She found you last night by tailing me I know I have no face to see you anymore. I just hope that my
family didn’t cause you too much trouble. I’m sorry!”
Emily had always seen Martin as a polite, virtuous, and excellent doctor, so even though yesterday was awkward,
she still respected him. After thinking for a bit, she replied,
“It’s fine, but to put your mom at ease, we shouldn’t see each other anymore. I hope you understand
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe didn’t blame him; she just felt that continuing this would be bad for both of them.
Martin naturally understood Emily’s meaning, and after a while, he replied, “Emily, I wish you happiness in the
future.”
*Thank you!”
Emily replied to the message, feeling relieved to have solved a problem, and threw herself into her work
wholeheartedly. Around noon, Emily received a message from Charlie: “I want to have grilled lobster and oxtail
stewed in red wine for lunch.”
Emily stared at the phone screen, a small smile appearing silently on her face.
“Alnght”
After a couple of days, Emily ran into Sherry again at the foot of her apartment building after work.
Compared to Sherry’s high-handed image last time, she was completely different now.
She was holding gifts, women’s skincare products, and baby supplies. Seeing Emily, she immediately came over
with a smile and said, “Ms. Sullivan, have you finished work?”
Emily’s expression was cold. “Martin and I are not what you think. You don’t need to come anymore.”
“That’s not it!” Sherry immediately said, “I’m not here because of you and Martin. I’ve come to apologize. Last
time, I didn’t clear things up and brought people to find you. I’m really sorry, Ms. Sullivan; you must forgive me!
-Emily looked at Sherry in some surprise and said, “As long as you understand, it’s finer
Sherry handed Emily the things in her hand and said, “These are for you and your child. They’re not worth much,
Ms. Sullivan, please don’t mind.”
Emily refused, saying. “There’s no need. I’m not in any difficulty, so you don’t have to do this”
Sherry was very sincere: “Ms. Sullivan, you must accept it.”
Emily was firm: Tm sorry, but I really can’t accept it.”
Sherry looked very hesitant, not knowing what to say. The thing is, Martin’s dad is a businessman, and lately, our
customers have started to return products en masse, and some of our long-term clients want to cut ties with us.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmManin’s dad found out through his connections that it was Mr. James who ordered those clients not to cooperate
with us anymore. Now that products are being returned in large quantities and piling up in the warehouse, with the
sales chain broken, the workers are very unsettled, and we really can’t take the pressure.”
Emily was surprised. Was Charlie retaliating against them?
No wonder Sherry would come to plead
“Ms. Sullivan, we didn’t know about your relationship with Mr. James, or else I wouldn’t have had the nerve to cause
trouble even if I were braver. I was wrong about this. Please forgive me, and I hope you can put in a good word for
us with Mr. James and have him let us off.”
Sherry begged in a low voice,
“If you want me to apologize publicly, I’m willing to. Really, our family sells food, and if our products can’t be sold,
with the capital chain broken and raw materials piling up and unable to be produced, all our family’s decades of
effort would be in vain.”
“Ms. Sullivan, I beg you, please help us!”
With that, Sherry was about to kneel before Emily.
