Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 1754

Chapter 1754

Emily's heart fluttered at the sound of his voice, and she responded softly, "OK."

She set aside the files and drank half a glass of water to calm herself before heading out of the office.

As she expected, Charlie's car was parked outside the building.

Just as Emily was opening the back door, the man in the driver's seat said in a deep voice, "Come to the front."

Surprised that he had driven himself, Emily moved to the passenger seat.

This was the first time they met after Charlie's drunken night. Seeing Charlie reminded Emily of what he had said that night. She looked a bit out of sorts and didn't dare to look at him.

The silence inside the car was palpable. Charlie was tight-lipped and Emily didn't address a word either.

After a while, Charlie said, "Are you really going to resign and join Horizon Enterprises?"

Eyes downcast, Emily nodded, "Yes."

There was a hidden coldness in Charlie's eyes, and his usually calm and composed face looked serious, “Can't you see that Wilson has ulterior motives?"

Emily frowned and looked at him, “Not every man who approaches me has a crush on me!"

Charlie's tone deepened, "When have I ever been wrong?"

Emily thought about Martin and although she disagreed with Charlie, she bit her lip and remained silent.

"So, even knowing he has feelings for you, you still want to work in his company and spend each day with him?"

Charlie asked again.

Emily explained, "He doesn't have feelings for me. He explicitly told me that he likes Betty!"

“Emily Sullivan, this is just a trick men use to pursue women. Can't you see that?"

Emily blinked away the tears welling up in her eyes and stepped out of the car.

Without looking back, she walked straight towards the company building.

Once she got into the elevator, she felt powerless. She leaned against the wall of the elevator and took deep breaths. Even her fingertips were strained white.

Her phone buzzed, and she took it out. It was a WhatsApp message from Charlie.

[Don't go. Don't go to Wilson.]

Emily's hand trembled slightly as she held her phone. Her clear eyes slowly blurred.

When she got back to her desk, she sat there blankly without moving.

Edwina rolled her chair over, "Emily, what's wrong?"

Emily's lips were pale from her biting on them. She slowly shook her head, "Nothing."
