Chapter 1622
Gavin chimed in, “The transaction records, the photos of Ms. Sullivan meeting Mr. Walton, and the photos of someone sending gifts to her. Do you believe all these are coincidentally captured? Have any of you considered the possibility that someone might be intentionally framing Ms. Sullivan and Horizon Enterprises, using it as a means to knock Horizon out of the bidding project? You’re all smart and I believe you can see the hidden schemes.”
Gavin’s words made the representatives appear suddenly enlightened and contemplative.
It did seemed too coincidental. Moreover, what was even more suspicious was that the fact they had all received the anonymous email accusing Emily and Horizon Enterprises at the same time. Who was behind all of this?
Could it be Horizon Enterprises after all!
Initially, these four companies were united in their desire to demand explanations from the James Group. However, at this moment, they began to suspect that any of them might be involved.
Mr. Larry scoffed, “Mr. Gavin, don’t try to mislead us. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. If Emily were truly innocent, it wouldn’t be so much evidence against her.”
Gavin responded firmly, “There are too many doubts in this case. I promised I would give you an explanation, and I will. Please give us some time and don’t let yourself be used as tools by others”
At this point, the representatives became less angry and impulsive. They began to calm down and asked, “When will you provide us with an explanation, Mr. Gavin?”
“Will the bidding process continue?”
The matter had a severe impact. We hope the James Group won’t escalate the matter further but sincerely resolve it.”
Gavin explained to them one by one, and the representatives finally regained their composure.
There was nothing more to be said at this point. Gavin asked his assistant escort the representatives out and took Emily back to the thirty-ninth floor.
Gavin pressed the elevator button and smiled at Emily, “You really impressed me back there!”
“Well?” Emily widened her eyes, “What did I do?”
Gavin gazed at her with amusement, “You were so composed. I thought you might be frightened by them, but you presented your evidence logically and stayed composed throughout. That’s really commendable!”
Emily raised an eyebrow and laughed, “That’s because I’m innocent. And besides, I have you by my side, right, Mr. Gavin?”
Gavin nodded, “Don’t worry, Mr. James won’t let anyone bully you.”
Emily felt a bit embarrassed, puzzled by Gavin’s repeated mention of Charlie. She bit her lip and said softly. “I’ve caused a lot of trouble for the company due to my carelessness. And it’s made people question Mr. James’s judgement.
She looked at Gavin with determination in her eyes, “I will investigate it and offer a satisfactory explanation to the company and the bidders.”
Gavin grinned, “Good, I’ll convey that to Mr. James.”
When the elevator doors opened, Emily followed Gavin without further comment.
In the evening, when Emily returned home, she immediately asked Ms. Simmons if anyone had send anything in the past few days.
“You know about it?” Ms. Simmons looked surprised.
“Is it true?” Emily asked urgently, “Where are the items?”
Seeing Emily’s anxiousness, Ms. Simmons hurriedly led her to the storage room by the kitchen. She opened the cupboard, revealing a collection of exquisite gift boxes. There were expensive supplements, luxury jewelries, and handbags from high-end brands.
Emily stared at the items, her eyes widening in shock. She turned to Ms. Simmons and asked, “When were these received? Why didn’t you tell me?”
Ms. Simmons explained, “Emily, I was worried because you and Mr. James broke up. Mr. James was trying to make amends and send these gifts to you.
You shouldn’t be so stubborn.”
Emily raised a hand to her forehead, trembling with anger.
It was only then that Ms. Simmons realize something was amiss, “Emily, are you angry?”

I'm so glad that Gonzalez was able to get Luke, Oliver and all others who wanted to challenge himas the CEO straight. Interesting how Xavier made reference to a girlfriend concerning his gift to Norah, but never did this before her accident. I'm grateful for the updates. Thank you...
I had a lot of catching up to do..oh buoy, what twist and turns. Loved every bit of it, thank you for keep updating the novel. Hoping for more love along the way....
May we please have updates. Thank you...
Someone needs to send a new picture of Trevor to Oliver and Luke so that they will get their requested reports to Gonzalez asap. If they didn't know, now they know what awaits them if they continue to disrespect and NOT follow orders....
Well, well, well. I love how Gonzalez sent out the warning that he's the CEO and either they will acknowledge him as such or get their due diligence. I'm waiting to see how the Franco family will be walking on eggs and come into a new understanding of Gonzalez taking charge. Thank you so much for the five updates....
Adrian is hoping that he has a chance with Norah and will do everything and anything in his power to keep Norah and Xavier apart....
Thank you for the updates. I hope that Norah will remember Xavier and their relationship before the accident and that they will ever be to....
Thank you, thank you for the updates today, which is also my birthday. The saga continues. I really want Norah and Xavier to be together... but he has to want Norah....
May we have updates please. Thank you....
Why can't m Xavier just admit that he loves Norah...
