Please Come Back, Honey! novel Chapter 48

Chapter 48

Cerys intentionally mentioned that she delivered the script to Trevor at the hospital. She was wondering if Emma would show concern for Trevor after hearing that he was in the hospital.

However, Emma’s focus was entirely on the script. “This version is okay too? That’s great! In that case, please arrange a time for the meeting. It is indeed better for everybody to sit down and discuss this matter together.”

Cerys could only say, “Okay. I will contact you again when I have set up a time and place for the meeting.”

Seeing that Emma was about to end the call, she blurted out, “Emma, Mr. Bateson is in the hospital because of his stomach issues.”

“Oh? Is that so?” Emma responded to the topic, but her tone was very polite. “Please wish him a specdy recovery on my behalf.

Cerys quietly sighed and ended the call.

Walking over to the elevator, she was just about to lift her hand to press the button when the elevator door opened. Zachary walked out from within, looking very unruly as he searched his pockets for something.

When he saw her, he smiled brightly and greeted her. “Hi, Cherry.”

He had always liked calling her ‘Cherry for some reason, which made the relationship between the two of them seem very intimate. However, she knew that he was a playboy and it was very common for him to flirt with women.

For that reason, she stepped back and greeled him. “Good morning, Mr. Manson.”

Be that as it may, despite knowing that Zachary was only being friendly, Cerys couldn’t stop the blush from creeping across her face or her heart from racing

He took a step forward and continued to flirt with her. “Do you want to join my company instead? Your employer is such a handsul after all. Look at how he landed himself in the hospital again.”

She mustered up the courage to speak. “Thank you for your concern. I still have work to do, so I’ll be taking my leave now.”

After saying that, she quickly stepped into the elevator and raised her hand to press the button to close the doors. It was not until the two heavy elevator doors finally closed and separated her from the handsome man outside that she let out a long sigh of relief.

She raised her eyes to look at herself in the reflection of the elevator mirror-large black-rimmed glasses, cold and dull eyes, and a monotonous professional suit in shades of black, white, and gray stared back at her. There was a world of difference compared to that man who stood at the top of the world.

Falling in love with a person she could never obtain was both sweet and painful.

Emma had heard the secret meaning contained within Cerys’ statement, but she deliberately chose to ignore it. What could she do even if she did not ignore it? As Trevor’s ex-wife, it was impossible for her to continue showing concern for him.

Besides, he did not lack for her concern. Just ten minutes ago, the post detailing Crystal’s appearance at the hospital to visit Trevor had already appeared at the top of the current trending topics.

Emma generally did not pay much attention to such gossip. It was Susanna who sent that information to her.

Susanna worked in the entertainment circle, so it was only natural that she paid close attention to such things.

Emma glanced at the trending topics and learned that Trevor had been admitted into the hospital due to gastric issues. Thus, she wondered whether he was admitted into the hospital because she had angered him so badly that his gastric issues flared up again.

The voice message Susanna sent to her was filled with contempt toward Crystal. “Crystal sure is amazing. Is she afraid she might not be able to marry him? Her beloved man is sick. Who would have the umc to care about dressing up so brightly and exquisitely? Who would dress up as though she was going for a street photography session? It’s obvious that she posed for this photo so that she can be featured on the trending topics.”
