Chapter 526


    Emma smiled. "I will think about it and get back to you and President Coleman in two days."


    "Okay."


    Kendall smiled back. "No matter what you decide, we will still be friends."


    "Thanks."


    "Well, I''ll go look for Dn now."


    Emma hummed in acknowledgment and watched as Kendall walked to the president''s office.


    "Young Mistress Coleman," Ronnie greeted respectfully as he had been standing guard by the door.


    "You may wait downstairs, Ronnie," she replied. "I''ll be down with Dn soon."


    "Okay."


    Ronnie waited until Kendall entered the office, after which he left his station.


    When she was around, they were not needed to help take care of Dn.


    "Honey, your smile is as warm as summer winds. Do you have good news to share with me?" Dn


    had sharp ears. Hence, he heard what Kendall said to Emma.


    When he saw his beloved wife walk into the room with a bright smile on her face, he couldn''t help but


    smile as well.


    "Thank goodness you don''t smile often," she eximed with a sigh upon seeing his smile. "Who knows


    how many women you would have enthralled otherwise?"


    "I only smile at you."


    He reached out with his hand and waited for her to walk closer. He then wrapped his arm around her


    waist and pulled her onto hisp before stealing a kiss from her.


    "Is today a good day? You''re here so early."


    "I only had a meeting with a client, and I came right after they left. Hubby, I just ate with my client, so I


    can only sit beside youter. I can''t eat another bite."


    Dn deliberately feigned dissatisfaction. "Who is this client that he''s more important than your


    husband? Why didn''t you save some stomach space so that you could dine with me?"


    "It''s a client Kelly introduced, and we got along well. Somehow, I just kept eating until I was full."


    "Say, do you know who John Read is?" she continued. "He should be a manager of some sort, around


    twenty-seven years old. He''s as handsome as a celebrity. Honestly speaking, his looks areparable


    with yours."


    As soon as she said that, Dn sprang to his feet and twirled them around to make it look like she was


    sitting in the chair instead. Then, he mped his hands down on the arms of the chair, trapping her


    between him and the chair. He looked down with a fiery gaze trained on her face.


    There was a dangerous lilt in his voice as he said, "A pretty boy couldpete with me on looks?


    Around twenty-seven years old? He''s even younger than me."


    "Hubby."


    Kendall''s sweet voice interrupted him. "I''m being serious right now. Stop getting jealous over nothing."


    Dn grabbed her chin. Of course, he was gentle since he did not want to hurt her.


    He lowered his scorching lips to press against her red lips. "You remained unmoved in the face of


    someone as handsome as Frank, yet you''re praising some random man right now. How could I not be


    jealous? Remember, Kendall," he continued. "You''re my wife!"


    She smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck to kiss him once more.


    After a bout of passionate kissing, they returned to their previous position with him on the chair and her


    on hisp.


    "I will only ever love Dn Coleman," she dered.


    "Still, you called another man handsome."


    "Truthfully speaking, he is handsome. Stop getting jealous, hubby. I was merely admiring him like one


    would admire the beautiful scenery. My body and heart are yours. They won''t belong to anyone else. I


    only wanted your help in looking up John Read."


    It was especially so when Kelly didn''t give her much information on the man.


    "He''s a slippery man. No matter how well we got along, he would always change the topic whenever I


    tried to talk business. I feel like he has some ulterior motive."


    Any client Kelly gave her would be a difficult one to deal with.


    Kendall had attended the meeting with that in mind.


    After meeting John, she began to suspect Kelly had intentionally given her a dashing client so that she


    would have to talk to a handsome man every single day.


    Dn was a man who easily became jealous and possessive.


    If she had to talk to John every day, it was highly probable Dn would get jealous. Perhaps that might


    lead to a fight between the couple.


    It was a ssic honey trap on Kelly''s part.


    "You said he''s a client Kelly introduced, right? Would she ever be so kind?"mented Dn.


    "Of course, she would never be that kind. It''s a trap."


    "Yet, you still fell for it."


    "I wouldn''t know what she''s nning if I didn''t fall for it."


    He tweaked her nose. "You''re getting bolder. Alright, I''ll have someone investigate John Read."


    "Thanks, hubby."


    "Just saying thanks isn''t enough. I much prefer a more realistic show of gratitude."


    She stared at him, speechless.


    As the couple continued to flirt in the office, Emma got ready to clock out while she tidied up her desk


    and grabbed her bag.


    Just as she walked out of her office, she found Toddy waiting for her by the elevator.


    She faltered before continuing to walk toward him as though nothing had happened. "Mr. Heller," she


    greeted.


    "We''re not on the clock anymore, Emma," he said. "There''s no need to call me Mr. Heller. Call me


    Toddy."


    "I''m used to calling you Mr. Heller," she replied calmly. "Are you here to speak with President Coleman?


    Unfortunately, Mrs. Coleman is here. Please don''t intrude on their time."


    Emma pressed the button to call the elevator as she spoke. Once the elevator doors opened, she


    swiftly stepped in.


    Toddy followed right behind her. "Am I someone who''s that bad at reading the room? Emma, I''m here


    to invite you to a meal."


    "Thank you for the kind offer, Mr. Heller, but I''ll be eating in the cafeteria today," she responded in


    rejection


    "I''ll be eating in the cafeteria too. Shall we go together?" he asked immediately as he changed his


    mind.


    She nced at him and kept quiet.


    "Emma."


    When he saw her respond to his call with a nce before ignoring him, he hesitated. Still, he asked, "Is


    President Coleman going to transfer you away?"


    "No."


    Emma immediately denied it. She didn''t want him to know that Dn wanted to transfer her over to


    Kendall so that she could help Kendall.


    After all, she was still thinking about her decision and would never tell anyone what was going on


    before she had made up her mind.


    Toddy heaved a sigh of relief.

    As the elevator would asionally open to wee neers, the two did not say a word after that.


    Mainly, she was giving him the cold shoulder. Whenever he tried to speak to her, she would ignore him.


    Soon, the two arrived at the first floor.


    Once the doors opened, Emma swiftly strode out of the elevator, hoping to get rid of her follower.


    Toddy remained persistently behind her, though.


    Everyone in the office was great at reading the room.


    They knew the tables had turned just from the way he was walking after her.


    Everyone had watched her chasing Toddy for years. In their eyes, it was about time they got together.


    "Miss Finley." The receptionist had been waiting for Emma to appear.


    When they spotted Emma, they hurriedly called out to her and pointed to a VIP meeting room. "Miss


    Finley, a man named Mr. Woods is waiting for you in there."


    Emma turned to look in the direction the receptionist pointed to.


    Roger shot to his feet as soon as he saw Emma. He hurried out of the VIP room with a huge bouquet


    of red roses beforeing toward Emma. "Miss Finley," he greeted with an awkward smile.


    "Why are you here, Roger?"


    She was shocked to see him here.


    "I bought some flowers for you," he answered nervously as he held out the bouquet.
