Chapter 173 The Cheating Scandal

Luckily, Emily had the foresight to grab a bite at Bryan's place, so she was feeling pretty good and the baby was safe.

But man, that fancy dress and those ill-fitting heels were killing her.

She ducked into a new mall, picked up some comfy work clothes, and swapped those heels for some flats. Then she hit up a makeup store for a quick touch-up.

In no time, she was back to her usual energetic self. But inside, she felt like a zombie, barely hanging on, just trying to find a decent café in the warm mall.

As she walked, she kept replaying Michael's words to Bryan, "I already have someone I like."

Who could Michael be into?

Emily knew Bryan had it wrong; Michael never liked Alice. She'd seen the look of love before, and Michael didn't have it for Alice.

But she had seen that look when Michael looked at Sophia.

So, Michael must've meant Sophia..

It definitely wasn't her, and it never would be.

Emily and Sophia were never on the same level from the start.

She was always the one destined to get hurt.

"Miss, what would you like?" The waiter's question snapped Emily out of her thoughts. She opened the menu and saw that even a simple coffee was $8. She frowned, thinking, was this still Emerald City?
