Chapter 1268


    The elevator quickly came to a halt at the first floor, and Charlie stepped out nervously.


    Waters followed him out of the elevator.


    Emily didn’t leave the elevator until they were out of sight, the words Charlie had said earlier still stung


    her.


    Martin was waiting for her outside. She exited the building briskly, not wasting any time.


    As she left the building, she saw Charlie and Waters also waiting for a ride. Martin had already got out


    of his car and waved to her over from a few meters away. “Emily, over here!”


    Emily walked towards Martin


    She was wearing the business suit gifted by Magdalen Sampson on the day, the skirt was a little


    shorter than her usual ones, tailored perfectly to her body, entuating her curves, especially from the


    back.


    Waters chuckled, “Have a great date!”


    Emily didn’t look back, she just quickened


    Martin’s eyes sparkled in the setting sun,


    her pace, hoping to disappear from Charlie’s line of sight as soon as possible.


    didn’t realize how great you look in business attire


    Emily cracked a small smile, she had intended to sit in the back seat, but Martin had already opened


    the passenger door for her, so she got in Waters watched as Martin’s car drove off, then turned to

    Charlie, “When I said your secretary was interesting, I didn’t mean interesting, she’s a bit


    strange.”


    “In what way is she strange?” Charlie stared at the rear lights of Martin’s car.


    “She’s too guarded, even with her boyfriend, she ims he’s not.” Waters raised his eyebrows and


    chuckled.


    The driver had already brought the car around and Charlie was walking towards it. It was then that


    Waters realized he couldn’t remember when Charlie had stopped smiling, his eyes had grown


    somewhat gloomy.


    Once they got in the car, Emily immediately asked, “Dr. Martin, why did the Ferber Family want to see


    you?”


    Martin turned to her, a warm smile on his face, “Don’t worry, we’ll talk about itter, what do you feel


    like eating?”


    “Anything is finer Emily replied politely


    1 know a great French restaurant, they do an excellent steak. Martin suggested


    “ok”


    Emily agreed and then called Ms. Simmons to let her know she might be homete


    Martin suggested, “Let’s go pick up Kya, we can all have dinner together”


    “It’s fine, Ms. Simmons can wait for me.” Emily said.


    “You’re still too formal with me.” Martin smiled, “We’re friends, there’s no need to be so distant.”


    Emily bit her lip and didn’t respond.


    The restaurant Martin had chosen was quiet and elegant, they found a table by the window where they


    could chat


    After they had ordered, Emily again asked impatiently. “What on earth did Terry want with you?”


    “Terry said they have a rtive who manufactures medical equipment and they’re hoping to introduce


    their products to our hospital, but their prices are too high, I’m not sure I can help” Martin finally


    responded.


    Emily’s face fell, “You don’t have to deal with them, just say no. Don’t break hospital rules on my


    ount”


    Martin looked slightly troubled, “Td like to help if I can, after all, they’re soon to be your family, but the


    prices they’re asking, I’m powerless.”


    Emily nodded, “Just stick to the rules, you don’t have to worry about offending anyone”


    Martin took a sip of water, then asked with a smile, “One more thing. Terry gave me a gift to thank me


    for my help, but I have no idea what I’ve done to help them?”
