Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1620

After Emily left, Gavin sat in a chair and teased, "Why do you have to speak to Emily like that? It's not that a big deal. You should trust her more than I do. She wouldn't do something like this."

Charlie lit a cigarette and took a deep drag, "I just want her to know the consequences of not listening to me!"

What frustrated him even more was that she trusted Wilson but not him!

"Emily indeed shouldn't have been in contact with Wilson privately, especially at a time like this. But Wilson’s so cunning that it's not surprising that he could deceive Emily easily," Gavin explained. "Emily is new to the workforce and doesn't quite understand the complexity of human nature."

Charlie leaned back in his chair, his gaze penetrating. He said in a subdued tone, "This matter isn't that simple. We need to figure out who's behind the scenes. Have someone look into it."

"Okay," Gavin's nodded, then added, "Let Emily come with me to meet with those representatives later. Otherwise, Emily will feel even worse. Don't worry, I won't let anyone harm her."

Charlie fell silent for a moment before nodding slightly, "Okay."

Back at her desk, Emily felt as if a huge rock was pressing on her heart, laden with guilt and a sense of injustice.

She decided to call Wilson again. To her surprise, this time, he answered after only two rings. His voice sounded a bit rushed, "Emily, I'm really sorry. I was busy and missed your call. I was just about to call you back."

Emily let out a sigh of relief as Wilson answered the call. "Mr. Walton, what's going on?"

"I'm still investigating. Don’t worry. I'll give you an explanation!" Wilson assured earnestly.

Emily nodded. "Alright, I'll be waiting for your response."

Wilson asked with concern, "Is everything okay on your end? I'll personally call Mr. James to explain the situation. If anyone gives you a hard time, just take a few days off and stay at home until this mess is resolved."
