The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 161 Friends' Dispute

"Get in the car," Emily snapped. She wasn't one to coddle anyone. After telling Michael, she got in the car and slammed the door shut. Michael was left speechless by her fiery temper.

Seriously? He was the one who was mad, but she had to be even angrier?

He chuckled to himself and got in the car too.

Meanwhile, the jewelry exhibition was getting set up. Bryan, being the host's son, showed up early with someone by his side.

But it wasn't Jessica; it was a woman named Alice Saunders.

Bryan asked, "Alice, this is the main exhibition stage my mom had built. What do you think?"

Oddly enough, even though they were both from Emerald City, they spoke in a foreign language.

Alice replied, "It's really nice, I love it. Your mom has great taste."

They chatted away, clearly enjoying each other's company. People who knew Bryan rarely saw him this happy.

When Emily and Michael arrived, a staff member led them inside.

They barely spoke on the way, keeping up appearances but saying nothing, leaving the staff member feeling awkward. "Mr. Smith, Mrs. Smith, this is the main exhibition area. The opening ceremony will be here soon, and there might be a small auction. Please make sure to join us."

A jewelry auction? Emily figured Michael wouldn't care. He had no one to buy for.

"We will," Emily answered for both of them and started heading to the exhibition stage alone.
