Please Come Back, Honey! novel Chapter 185

Chapter 185Crystal instantly understood that her father meant Emma was Wilson’s sugar baby.Thomas said again, “You are only apologizing for the moment. She and Wilson already have such stains on them. There’s no need to be afraid of being unable to find a chance to destroy them both in the future. When Emma’s reputation is ruined, would Trevor still want her?”Thomas’ words convinced Crystal to compromise this time. As soon as she caught the evidence that Emma and Wilson were having some kind of dirty relationship, she would definitely make the woman pay!Thinking of this, Crystal curled her lips into a smile and said to Emma pleasantly, “I’m sorry.”Crystal thought that her apology would satisfy Emma.However, Emma shook her head and said with a chuckle, “Miss Sanders, an apology doesn’t work like that.”Crystal was angry. “What do you want?”Emma said calmly, “To apologize to someone, you should first say what you did wrong, then apologize, and finally make a promise that you won’t do it again in the future. In my opinion, this is the correct and sincere way to apologize.” Emma had the same pleasant smile on her face, but her request was not at all pleasant.Crystal was so angry that she wanted to get up and leave, but she finally endured it.She took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and said quickly, “During the drafting for Mr. Wilson’s new book last time, I shouldn’t have hired computer hackers to attack your computer and steal your manuscript for my own use. I’m sorry, and I promise I’ll never do this to you again in the future.”Crystal finished speaking in one breath; it seemed that the faster she spoke, the more self-esteem she retained.Emma didn’t care about that; she knew that Crystal was not sincere, and she only needed what Crystal said just now.After being schemed against by Crystal so many times, Emma was now cautious too.Before she entered the cafe, she turned on her phone’s recording function to record Crystal’s apology just in case she needed it in the future.Crystal had a scheming mind, so who knew if she would turn against Emma in the future?Since she had evidence in her hands, Emma was no longer afraid.Emma concealed her emotions well, smiled, and said to Crystal, “I accept your apology.”Crystal gritted her teeth and sneered back at her, then got up with her designer bag and left.Emma, we have a long way to go.After Crystal left, Emma took out her phone and saved the recording.Just as she was about to leave the cafe, Trevor called her.He explained on the phone dominantly, “Since you asked me to help you keep that secret during the day, we will have dinner together at night.”Either way, Emma had misunderstood him about asking for rewards all day long last time, so Trevor simply went along with it. In the future, as long as she asked him to do something, he would reciprocate.Emma was annoyed and said angrily without holding back, “As expected, all businessmen are treacherous.”Trevor was not annoyed at all. Instead, he went along with it. “A businessman only cares about profit.”Emma thought he would be upset by her mockery because he had a big ego, but she didn’t expect that he had learned to deprecate himself now.On the contrary, he made her at a loss for words. “I don’t need you to cook at night. I will ask Zachary’s restaurant to deliver the food,” he said.Trevor reflected on it and thought that perhaps the fact that she had to cook whenever he went to her place to eat had caused her refusal to eat with him, so he took the initiative to declare that she didn’t need to work hard this time. He just wanted to eat with her, and he would be satisfied.“Whatever.” Emma hung up the phone.She didn’t like to be in contact with him. The reason she refused to eat with him was not because she didn’t want to cook; she didn’t want to have any interactions with him at all.Trevor then sent her another message which read, ‘My place or yours?’Emma gripped her phone and gritted her teeth, wanting to block him again.Can’t he speak without being so suggestive? Can’t he add the word ‘eat’? Would it cost his soul?Therefore, she replied to him emotionlessly, ‘Whatever.’Hence, Trevor made a decision. ‘My place, then.’Emma put away the phone and ignored him.At 6.00PM, Trevor sent a message to Emma saying that he had arrived home and that the food had been prepared, so she could come over.Emma reluctantly put on her coat and went out. The door of Trevor’s house was not closed. She pushed open the door in exasperation but found that it was very dark, and Trevor did not turn on the lights.She took a few steps forward, and when she came to the dining room, she found that Trevor had arranged a candlelight dinner.At each end of the long dining table were delicate candlesticks with white candles burning on it.There were bunches of roses in the vase on the table, and the whole atmosphere was beautiful and romantic.Emma was stunned in place for a long time, then she turned around and ran out.It was so weird that Trevor was being romantic.They had been together for so many years, yet he never once sent a bouquet of flowers to her. However, he had arranged such a romantic candlelight dinner tonight.Emma felt a little panic in her chest, and in addition to her astonishment, her chest was filled with so many indescribable emotions that she instinctively wanted to escape.As a result, she bumped into someone as soon as she turned her head and was held by Trevor, who was going to get the wine.He held the woman in his arms and didn’t let go. “What are you running for?”Emma made excuses and said, “I think I forgot to close the door. I’ll go back and take a look…”I’ll go back, take a look, and never come back in.Trevor saw through her lie at a glance, so he hugged her tightly and whispered, “I’ve owed you too much before, and I want to make up for it now.”The candlelight dinner was also a sudden idea. Trevor didn’t know what was wrong with him, for he seemed to be enlightened all of a sudden. If he had troubles in this area before, he needed to ask Zachary for advice. This time, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind, and he wanted to make such a romantic surprise for her.He just instinctively felt that most girls liked this kind of romance, right?Emma was a little taken aback in Trevor’s arms, for she didn’t expect him to do such a thing, nor did she expect him to say that he wanted to make up for things.Just when the two hugged each other and the atmosphere lightened slightly, a voice suddenly came from outside the door. “What are you doing? Why don’t you turn on the lights at night?”With a pop, the lights in the house were turned on, and Zachary appeared at the entrance with two bottles of wine in his hands.Emma frantically tried to break free from Trevor’s arms, but the man didn’t let go.Zachary saw the two hugging each other, and a meaningful smile suddenly appeared on his face.“Sorry, sorry, you carry on.” He hurriedly turned off the lights, closed the door, and turned to exit.
