Chapter 1557
“It’s probably because I attended your brother’s wedding that everyone at the branch office has ideas
about your brother. Some are trying to suck up to me by promoting your brother, while others are
worried that his rapid promotion might threaten their own interests. So, your brother’s been getting
stuck with overtime and socializing lately.” Charlie explained patiently.
Emily was confused. “Are there people trying to stop my brother from getting promoted? But shouldn’t
working harder make it easier for him to get promoted?”
Charlie responded, “No, sometimes working too hard is just a waste of time and could lead to mistakes.
This is just a manipulative tactic used by some seasoned bosses.”
Finally, Emily got it. “So that’s how it is.”
Charlie said seriously, “So, I didn’t consider this carefully. I’m sorry.”
Emily shook her head. “It’s not your fault. I won’t blame you. I’m very understanding.”
Charlie looked at her deeply. “Actually, I wish you could be less understanding sometimes.”
What he meant was that, he wished she could lose her temper at him sometimes, be a little capricious
occasionally, and be happier.
But Emily didn’t get his underlying meaning, she just looked up at him with confusion.
Charlie shook his head slightly, changing the subject. “Can you sleep? I can have Kent take you home.
I’ll stay here and take care of Elliott.”
“No need!” Emily answered. “You should go home. I can stay here. I’ve already told Estelle, and I’ll
hand Kya over to Ms. Simmons in the morning.” “Then I’ll stay here with you.” Charlie held her tighter.
“You rest, I’ll keep an eye on Elliott’s condition.”
Emily wanted to say no, she didn’t want to owe him too much, and she didn’t want to put him in a
difficult position. He had very particular living habits, so there was no need for him to squeeze into a
small bed with her.
However, she was probably too tired. Before she could say anything, she slowly closed her eyes again.
Charlie moved closer to the bed, holding her in his arms. Emily quickly caught a faint scent from him.
Was it the perfume of the woman in the black strap dress in the hallway today?
If she hadn’t shown up, would he have gone into the same room with that woman?
She thought maybe she ruined his delightful night.
How could he come to her side without any concern after she saw him being intimate with another
woman?
Perhaps in his view, there was no difference between her and the woman in the hallway, she should
know her place. That’s why he could be so calm.
Emily suddenly lost her sleepiness. The scent of his perfume made her feel sick at the moment. She
just wanted to stay away from him but she didn’t move, she didn’t even open her eyes, pretending to be
asleep.
Emily had a restless night. Charlie also woke up frequently, looking at Elliott’s IV bag. He even called
for the nurse a few times in the middle of the night.
The next morning, when Elliott woke up, he was much better. Seeing Charlie there, he felt very
surprised and guilty, thanking him repeatedly. Emily told Charlie to go to the office, and she stayed to
take care of Elliott.
Charlie had an important meeting in the morning, and seeing that Elliott was okay, he left first, telling
Emily to call him anytime if there was any problem. Before he left, he hired a male nurse to help take
care of Elliott
After Charlie left, Elliott tried to ask Emily, “Are you really dating Charlie?”
Obviously, Charlie didn’t spend the whole night there for Elliott, but for Emily No ordinary friend would
do this.
Emily handed Elliott the breakfast she bought, lowered her head, and said softly, “About me and him,
it’s not something that can be explained a few words I’ll tell you when everything is over”
Elliott asked, “What do you mean by tell me when everything is over? Are you guys official?”
“It’s not like that?’ Emity said it with a smile. “It’s when we end our relationship that everything will be
over
