“This time it’s different!” Mrs. James, with her well-maintained face, showed a touch of concern. “At least, you are

the first girl he has brought to me.”

“Mr. James didn’t brought me there yesterday,” Emily replied.

Mrs. James shook her head, “He purposely made you appear. You’re a smart woman, you should see that

Emily kept her gaze down and stayed silent.

“Since you’re a smart woman, Ms. Sullivan, fill be direct. First, I’ve had your background checked and your family

did surprised me. It’s not that I’m snobbish, but I know clearly that relationships between people of different social

classes usually don’t end well. And the situation with your family”

Mrs. James didn’t finish her sentence, pausing for a moment before continuing, “So, I really don’t think you and

Charlie have a future

Emily knew Mrs. James was being as tactful and polite as possible. She nodded slowly and replied, “I understand”

A waiter brought their coffee, interrupting their conversation.

Emily kept her composure and did not behave arrogantly just because Charlie liked her, which deeply impressed

Mrs. James. With a softer tone and a warm smile. she asked. “You haven’t had lunch yet, have you?”

Without waiting for a reply, she turned to the waiter, “Please bring this lady a grilled cheese sandwich and a

croissant.”

“Thank you,” Emily replied with a light smile.

Mrs. James took a sip of her coffee, her gaze softened and she said, “To be honest, I already like you although it was

our first meeting. And I liked Kya. I know you were in a relationship with Charlie for some time, so if you need

financial or any other form of compensation, just let me know. I’ll definitely meet your requirement.” Emily

concealed the deep pain in her eyes and tried to remain calm, “Mr. James has helped me a lot, and I don’t need

any compensation.”

“Are you sure you don’t need anything? You’re a single mother, and your family won’t help you. Right now, you can

just ask, and you and Kya can live comfortably for the rest of your lives. You should consider it. You don’t need to

prove your pride, I won’t look down on you, and I won’t tell Charlie, Mrs. James sincerely said.

“I really don’t need it!” Emily’s said with determination, “I can provide for Kya on my own.”

Mrs. James looked deep at Emily and smiled, “You’re a righteous woman, Emily But your stubbornness might cause

you a lot of hardship.”

Emily gave a self-mocking smile, “I know, but some things are just hard to change.”

Mrs. James nodded in understanding. She spoke with added sincerity. “Emily, you’re very sensible. I believe you’ll

leave Charlie. He really cares for you, so for his sake, I hope you can resign from your job at the company and

never appear in front of Charlie again.”

“After talking to you today, I believe that you’ve been wrongly accused in the Horizon Enterprises matter, but you’ll

affect Charlie and cause him pain. So I hope you can understand my decision.”

Emily held her coffee cup with a slightly pale face. She had been prepared to resign, so she replied without

hesitation, “Once the matter is resolved, I’ll resign.” Mrs. James did not expect Emily to agree so readily. It seemed

that there was no need for the threats and temptations she had prepared earlier. She felt a bit uneasy and said

slowly, “After you resign, life might be more difficult for you and Kya. My offer still stands, you can ask for anything

you want.”

Emily shook her head, “I don’t need anything”

Seeing her determination, Mrs. James did not push further, “Thank you, Emily. Today’s conversation went better

than I expected. I’ll take my leave now. You can finish your meal before going back to work.”

“Goodbye”

Emily said goodbye to Mrs. James and watched her leave the café. The driver came over with an umbrella to escort

her to the car.

The waiter approached, carrying her meal. He frowned and carefully asked, “Miss, are you alright? Is there

anything I can help with?”

Emily snapped back to reality, touched her face, and realized she had been crying.

She accepted the tissue from the waiter and wiped her face, forcing a small smile, Tm fine, thank you!”

“Alright,” the waiter left her alone after placing the dessert on the table.

Emily rested her arms on the table and buried her face in her hands, tears flowing down her face.

She had already decided to cut ties with Charlie and had been prepared to quit her job even before Mrs. James met

her. But now, an overwhelming sense of sorrow washed over her, making her to cry uncontrollably

She couldn’t be as brave as Mrs. James suggested

He was too good for her, and she did not deserve him
