Chapter 169: Chapter 169

After they returned to the box, the dinner was almost done. The classmates were chitchatting.

Madison saw them come back and said more ironically, “You are indeed busy. We are all waiting for you two. Emmett is a big boss, but he’s not so busy.”

Before Sherry retorted her, Emmett chimed in, “I’m not busy usually. I’ve almost given all my jobs to my subordinates.”

As soon as he finished speaking and before Madison understood, another woman burst into laughter.

Just now, Madison was showing off her husband was an executive manager of a big company who was always busy and couldn’t go home. However, he was still working for his boss, wasn’t he? Emmett’s indifferent answer implied something and they all understood who he was referring to.

At the table, other people tried hard to hold their laughter as well.

The purpose that Madison came to this reunion without the invitation was that she wanted to show off how rich her husband was.

Unexpectedly, she didn’t achieve her goal but was retorted.

Madison was so angry, but Emmett didn’t call her name and referred to her clearly. She couldn’t blow up at all but could only suppress her anger.

After the reunion ended, everyone left gradually.

Emmett looked over at Stella and Sherry, “I happen to be free now. Please allow me to give you girls a ride.”

Stella smiled politely, “No, thanks. We drove here...”

Sherry immediately answered, “That’s great. My car was broken down.”

Stella looked at her in confusion.

Sherry said solemnly, “Stella, have you forgotten? On the way here, my car broke down from time to time. Right right after I parked in the basement parking lot, it couldn’t move.”

“How come I didn’t...”

“You didn’t drive, so you don’t know it certainly.” As she spoke, Sherry dragged Stella towards Emmett’s car and said to Emmett, “Thank you so much.”

Emmett smiled, “You are welcome.”

Sherry pulled the door next to the passenger seat and pressed Stella in, “I’m not very well. I want to sit in the backseat alone. Stella, sit here.”

Stella was speechless.

She was quite certain about Sherry’s purpose now.

However, since Emmett was with them, Stella couldn’t make her denial so obvious. She glared at Sherry in secret and fastened the seat belt.

Sherry pretended not to see the glare. She hummed a song and sat in the backseat.

Emmett asked, “Where are you living?”

Sherry answered, “Oh... It doesn’t matter where we live. If you are free tonight, you can give us a casual ride. We just had dinner. It’s good for us to hang out for digestion.”

Stella wasn’t in the mood to expose her lies. Who would digest by sitting in the car?

She gave Emmett an address and said, “Thank you so much, Emmett.”

Emmett was a bit surprised, “Do you stay in that community?”

Sherry suddenly approached, “Are you also staying there coincidentally?”

She was delighted. Didn’t it mean that Stella had fate with Emmett?

Emmett shook his head with a smile, “Nah. A friend of mine just came back from abroad. He lives in your community as well.”

Sherry was a bit sorry, “What a pity!”

After a pause, she asked, “What kind of friend is that? Are you close? Can you always visit him? If you are free, you can...”

Stella covered her mouth and smiled at Emmett apologetically, “Let’s go.”

After driving for a short while, Emmett received a call. He was informed that something happened in the company and he needed to go back.

He smiled at Sherry apologetically, “I’m sorry, Sherry. I might not be able to give you a casual ride today. Probably next time.”

Sherry also overheard his phone conversation, so she nodded, “No problem. Next time would be fine.”

As she spoke, Sherry pulled out her business card from the purse and gave it to him, “This is the address of our studio. Feel free to drop by.”

Stella said, “Emmett, you can drop us off at the roadside. We can go home by ourselves.”

Emmett said, “It’s alright. I’m not in such a hurry. We’ll arrive in your community soon.”

Seeing that he didn’t aim to stop, Stella didn’t insist. She pressed down the window and looked out of it expressionlessly.

Twenty minutes later, the black Porsche stopped downstairs of their apartment.

Sherry said, “Emmett, since you are going back to your company, we can’t invite you to our apartment upstairs. See you around.”

Emmett nodded with a smile. He looked at Stella, “See you around.”

After he was gone, Sherry said, “It’s so difficult to find such a good man like Emmett. You must grasp...”

“Let’s roll.”

Sherry turned around and followed Stella, “By the way, Stella, I meant it. Please consider him. I can tell that Emmett has a crush on you. Probably you can develop with him.”

Stella pressed the button of the elevator and asked with a smile, “How did you know he has a crush on me?”

“Have you noticed that the way he gazed at you is quite different? He treated you especially tenderly.”

“I didn’t notice it.”

Sherry continued, “It’s always that those closely involved cannot see as clearly as those outsides. I understand that you didn’t notice it.”

Stella choked up.

“Have we agreed that we should forget Clarence Conrad the wretched man and restart? Emmett was sent to you from God.”

“But, haven’t you suggested that I should find a playboy and cheat on him? I don’t think Emmett is a playboy.”

It was the first time that Sherry was choked up by her own words spoken before. She stammered, “You can’t take what I said when I was drunk so seriously. I just can tell that Emmett is a good man. If you could be together with him, you would be the happiest woman in this world.”

Why they were talking, the door of the elevator was suddenly opened. A tall and strong mixed-raced man walked out.

After the man was gone, they walked into the elevator. Sherry whispered, “Whoa... Stella, have you seen that. He’s so handsome. How lucky we are!

We’ve met several handsome men in a row.”

Stella asked casually, “Several?”

“Of course. Emmett, the mixed-raced man just now, and Clar...”

Mentioning the last man’s name, Sherry coughed and swallowed his name back.

Clarence was a wretched man, but he was truly handsome.

Frankly speaking, Emmett although had changed a lot, his appearance couldn’t compare to Clarence’s.

Stella thought for a while and said, “Sherry, after the studio goes smoothly, we should hire another designer.”

Sherry couldn’t understand, “What? Why?”

Stella exhaled, wondering how she should answer.

She recalled what Clarence had said when leaving the VIP lounge earlier. It seemed that he still hadn’t let go of her. Stella didn’t know what the wretched man would do to her. She was afraid that Sherry would be dragged into a mere. Hence, she wanted to hand the studio to Sherry completely and resigned after the studio went on smoothly.
