Chapter 1265


    But that feeling onlysted for a minute. Emily quickly snapped herself back to reality, trying her best to


    forget about that night


    Wasn’t this what she wanted, her rtionship with him?


    It was all good


    A small smile curled up at the corners of Emily’s mouth, but it didn’t reach her eyes. It was just a


    passing smirk that soon disappeared without a trace.


    On a Friday afternoon, while Charlie and Tracy were busy in a meeting, Waters suddenly showed up


    again.


    She’d cut her hair short and swapped her style for aid back, artsy vibe, donning a loose maxi dress


    and a deep blue scarf, still looking drop-dead gorgeous


    She settled down on the couch, dropped her handbag, and said to Emily, “Help me pour a cup of


    coffee, will you? Thank you. Make it the way Mr. James


    kes n


    “Sure thing”” Emily replied with a smile, pouring her a cup and cing it on the table.


    Waters took out a certain brand of lipstick from a high-end brand from her bag and handed it to Emily.


    “Didn’t get you anythingst time I was here. Consider this a bted gift.”


    The diamond-encrusted tube twinkled under the light, screaming expensive.


    Emily declined, “Thanks for the gesture, but I don’t really need it.”


    Waters raised an eyebrow, “Why not? Don’t like it? It’s thetest model, their top-shelf product, pretty


    hard to get your hands on.”


    “No, really, I’m good” Emily held her ground.


    “Alright then!” Waters, seeing Emily’s sincere refusal, left the lipstick on the table and gave her a


    friendly smile. “Has any other worhane looking for Mr. James recently? Or has Mr. James asked


    you to get gifts for any other women?”


    “Not that I know of, Emily answered truthfully.


    A look of delight washed over Waters’ face. She lowered her voice, if any woman everes looking


    for Mr. James, could you give me a ring” Here’s my business card”


    She proffered a card to Emily, her smile growing warmer. And, of course, if you ever need anything,

    don’t hesitate to reach out. I know a fair few people in J City”


    Emily didn’t take the card and declined her offer politely, “I’m sorry, but I can’t get involved in Mr.


    James’ personal affairs”


    Waters frowned slightly,ughing it off, “What’s so private about that? I just want to know who’s been


    hanging around Charlie, not prying into his business secrets.


    “That’s still a no-go!”


    Just as Waters was about to say something else, Emily stood her ground, her eyes darted to the


    approaching man, and she quickly pocketed her card, throwing him a smile, “Mr. James!”


    “What are you up to here?” Charlie asked, a charming smile on his face.


    Waters quickly picked up the lipstick from the table and said in a yful, slightly petnt tone, “Your


    assistant said she loved the colour of my lipstick today, so I gave it to her. We were just chatting, and


    you showed up.”


    “Is that so?” Charlie turned to Emily, his gaze somewhat frosty


    Emily felt a chill run down her spine under his icy stare. She knew Waters was lying, but she couldn’t


    blow her cover in front of him.
