Chapter 1584

The next day, at the James Building.

Emily clocked in on time. As the elevator doors slid open, Charlie stood inside.

His face was as usual, only his gaze towards her was noticeably cold.

Once she stepped into the elevator, Emily positioned herself as far away from him as possible.

Neither of them spoke. The atmosphere in the lift was icy, as if it could freeze one’s breath.

The elevator stopped at the 39th floor. Emily stepped aside, slightly lowering her head, respectfully waiting for Charlie to exit first. Charlie’s gaze swept over her as he strode out.

Emily held her breath unconsciously, letting it out only when he was well out of sight.

Once at work, Emily was busy all day, making a report to Charlie about the day’s schedule in between.

Gavin was in Charlie’s office when Emily walked in. As usual, he greeted her with a smile, “Good morning, Ms. Emily.”

Emily returned his greeting with a faint smile, “Good morning, Mr. Gavin.”
