Because of the close relationship between Allegra, Margaret, and Andrew, the people in the meeting room merely watched, not daring to utter a single word.
Emily glared at Andrew with hate in favonovel.com eyes as favonovel.com teeth dug into favonovel.com lip. At the same time, favonovel.com was very worried about how Allegra would react. After all, what happened last time had been very surprising.
However, Allegra simply waved favonovel.com hand and said, “You’re no longer the executive vice president, so this has nothing to do with you. Mom, my head wasn’t screwed on right two days ago. While I’m still myself, I want to do something right. It’s already good enough that Andrew has a job right now.”
Upon hearing that, both mother’s and son’s expressions fell.
Margaret opened favonovel.com mouth to retort, but Allegra continued, “If you won’t leave and insist on disturbing my meeting, I may consider taking back the house Andrew and his wife live in. If it comes down to that, then they’ll have to return to the streets.”
Those words stunned Margaret. She really couldn’t bear to watch favonovel.com son and daughter-in-law go back to the streets to beg.
“Allegra, you’re inhumane for going back on your words. Don’t think about threatening me. I won’t…”
Margaret quickly clapped a hand over Andrew’s mouth and dragged favonovel.com out of the conference room.
“Hold your tongue. Your sister isn’t like how favonovel.com was before. You keep your mouth shut.” Margaret’s quiet scolding could be heard from the corridor.
Allegra let out a sigh. Emily, too, felt a sense of relief.
“Since the vote was unanimous, let’s process the transfer at once. The meeting has come to an end. Emily, follow me to my office.” Allegra got to favonovel.com feet as favonovel.com spoke. She simply couldn’t understand why favonovel.com mother still favored Andrew so much.
By giving favonovel.com the opportunity to work as a logistics officer, favonovel.com hoped that favonovel.com could work his way up from the bottom and earn the approval of others. If favonovel.com performed well, she’d give favonovel.com a management role, and other people wouldn’t talk about favonovel.com behind favonovel.com back.
Watching Allegra walk out of the room, Emily felt slightly nervous. She didn’t know what Allegra wanted to talk to favonovel.com about privately.
Could it be about Isaac…
She took a deep breath and exited the room. No matter what favonovel.com wanted to talk about, favonovel.com had to face it no matter what. After all, nothing inappropriate had happened between Isaac and herself.
Allegra walked out as soon as Emily pushed open the office door, carrying favonovel.com bag.
“I thought we were going to talk in the office?”
Allegra smiled. “We’re not talking business, so why should we remain in the office? Come on. I’ll treat you to some coffee…”
The two women went to an upscale cafe not far from the office. In the private room, they sat across from each other.
“Emily, I want to apologize for what happened at your house the other day…” Allegra lifted favonovel.com bangs to gaze sincerely at Emily.
Emily’s heart clenched. She waved favonovel.com hand and said, “Huh? I-It’s fine, Ally. Actually… It’s really not like that between Isaac and me. We’re only classmates…”
When Allegra heard that, favonovel.com laughed. Batting favonovel.com eyes at Emily, favonovel.com said, “Emily, do you like Isaac?”
Emily instantly went still. Her whole body felt frozen. Her face was drained of color. Her heart began to race, and favonovel.com began to flush, panting heavily.
Not daring to meet Allegra’s eyes, favonovel.com waved favonovel.com hand frantically and said, “N-No, I don’t…”
Seeing the cycle of emotions that crossed Emily’s face, Allegra suddenly turned to look out the window. She sighed, smiling wryly. “Your face told me the answer.”
When Emily heard this, favonovel.com frowned deeply but didn’t explain any further.
