Renewal Of Love novel Chapter 19

When Emily heard what Anne said, her heart sank. Anne was very serious, so Emily's heart began to beat quite fast. She was worried that Anne's plan might be hard.

But she still asked, "Anne, what's the matter?"

"Call Kevin and ask him if I can get in touch with my friend. I promise I won't meddle in company business." Anne had a strong aura innately. When she didn't smile, she looked very no-nonsense.

But right now Emily was flustered. She felt Anne was blaming her for reporting to Kevin, rather than simply asking her to call Kevin.

But she misunderstood what Anne meant. She really asked her to call him.

Seeing Emily wringing her hands nervously, Anne didn't know what to say. Did she scare her?

She softened her tone and said, "Emily, I'm not saying you did anything wrong. Sometimes even I have to listen to Kevin."

Hearing her words, Emily raised her head slightly, but was still a little nervous.

Anne continued, "Please...I really need your help. If you feel embarrassed, give me your phone and I'll call him myself."

Emily replied immediately, "No, It's not a big deal. What else do you want to ask him, Anne?"

"Just what I asked."

Emily called Kevin with Anne right there with her. Kevin was in a meeting, but he didn't look happy. His furrowed eyebrows showed his displeasure.

The meeting was supposed to be held an hour ago, but Cherry went to him and told him in person that Anne was not feeling well. She stopped by to visit her that morning, but Anne wouldn't even come to the living room to talk.

When he heard this, Kevin immediately stood up from his chair and asked his secretary to delay the meeting. He rushed to Anne's residence with Cherry in tow. When he found that she was standing on the balcony safe and sound, he felt relieved.

He asked Emily what was going on. That was when he found out she wasn't ill. She'd been sleeping a lot, and slept till the afternoon.

Kevin was not satisfied with what was going on in the meeting. He frowned until the phone on the table rang.

He raised his hand and motioned the person in front of the big screen to stop. Then he picked up the phone and said to the people in the meeting room, "That's all for today's meeting. If you can't come up with a plan that I like, don't quit at the normal time. All of you stay here and work overtime!"

After saying that, he softened his tone. "Emily, do you have something to say?"

Taking a look at Anne, Emily said, "Mr. Kevin, Anne wanted me to ask you if she could call her friend? She swears up and down that she isn't going to try and run the company. She just wants to spend some time with her friends."

"Okay, but you and Sam have to follow her the whole time. Don't let her get tired. Don't let anything happen to my baby."

"Will do, boss." Emily breathed a sigh of relief. After hanging up on Kevin, she asked with a smile, "So who are you gonna call, anyway?"

Instead of answering her question, Anne smiled for the first time in so many days.

Her features were delicate and exquisite. Although she was not mega-gorgeous, she was particularly good-looking.

And now she was smiling, which stymied Emily. Emily looked straight at her and forgot her question.

Taking the phone from her hand, Anne said, "Just a good friend."

How she hoped that she had come up with this idea earlier. That way, she would have contacted Ryan already.

Kevin was domineering in some ways, but sometimes he was reasonable. He basically imprisoned Anne, and enlisted Emily and Sam as jailers.

The phone was soon connected, and Anne suddenly felt her tension drain away. She said, "It's me, Anne."

"Anne?" Ryan was surprised. He immediately stood up from his chair and asked in disbelief, "Did anything happen to you?"

"Not really. I'd like to spend some time with you. See you in the Greenlight Forest an hour from now?"

"Sounds good."

"Awesome. We can catch up then." She hung up the phone and handed it to Emily.

Emily had been standing in the room all the time. After hearing what she said on the phone, she asked carefully, "Are you really going out?"

"Yes." Anne walked to the wardrobe in a good mood.

However, Emily was a little worried. Anne said with her back to Emily, "Go and tell Sam."

By that time, Emily couldn't stop her. Once she made up her mind, she wasn't changing it for anyone.

Hearing that from Emily, Sam frowned and asked, "Did Kevin agree?"

"Yes." Emily felt like Anne had set a trap for her. She helped her get Kevin's approval, but she wasn't expect that Anne was going to do more than she had asked. And now it was too late to regret it.

Sam went to prepare to get everything ready, a worried expression on his face. Anne had just gotten changed when she came out of her room. She seemed to be in a good mood, with a smile curling the corners of her mouth.

Sam was half worried and half happy. He was worried that she would be tired, but he was happy because she was in a good mood. He didn't get to see that very often.

Before leaving, Emily asked, "Anne, who are you going to see? You seem excited."

"A childhood friend." The corners of Anne's mouth lifted into a smirk.
