Chapter 687
The girl was still begging, but the woman didn’t want to budge at all. Some onlookers gathered around them, taking the girls side after they understood what was going on, trying to persuade the woman to accept the cake.
The woman finally relented but threw Emily a curveball ‘It’s your fault it’s late, the cake’s not fresh anymore. If you want to compensate me, you can give me back half the money!” Emily’s eyes widened, shaking her head, 1 can’t afford that‘
The cake cost two thousand bucks, so half of that would be a thousand bucks.
“Either pay up or take the cake away, it’s up to you!” The woman crossed her arms, turning away to ignore Emily
The people around them were discussing the situation, and it was pretty obvious that the woman on the couch just wanted Emily to pay her
Charle watched with an impassive expression. Seeing Emily in such a miserable state didnt make him feel any better, but rather made him hate her more!
He hated her for betraying him for a mere 500,000, for her greed and shortsightedness!
He suddenly realized that Emily was indeed very money–hungry, working several jobs and eating bread for three days straight just to save money. Since they met, he’d never seen her buy any new clothes
And now, for the sake of a cake, she’s almost about to kneel before that woman!
Indeed, they were never meant to be together!
“Emily!”
Estelle came downstars, asking. “What’s going on?”
Seeing Estelle, Emily was a bit surprised and quickly shook her head, “Nothing. I came to deliver the cake”
‘Til buy it!” Estelle suddenly said, “You said the cake is two thousand and five hundred bucks, right? Il give you the money right now.”
“Estelle‘‘ Emily immediately tried to stop Estelle
“It’s okay It’s Carson’s birthday, anyway. I give him the cake later,” Estelle said.
“Do you really want to buy it?” The woman frowned at Estelle
“Yes”
Unexpectedly, the woman didn’t want to sell it. She actually wanted the cake too, arguing with Emily was just to get her to pay for half the cost
In this way, she would have bought a Sweet Whispers Bakery cake for half the price.

Dear author Lucy, may we please have updates. Thank you....
There's a song currently playing via YouTube and TikToc by LowDii "Touch Me Softly" that makes me think of Norah and Xavier (Gonzalez). Please, I'm looking forward to updates. Thank you for your writing....

As the plot thicken. Adrian is done for and he can't try to control Norah, so he'd probably tattle to Janice who's gone for two weeks. Thank you soooo much for the updates....
These updates were too funny. Thank you so much for the updates....
I forgot to add Amy to the group of pregnant women,since she was the first. Emily and Sylvia better be careful since pregnancy is in the air....
