Chapter 1590

The next day, Emily saw a big bunch of fresh flowers on her desk first thing in the morning

She picked up the attached card and read it, there was no name signed. Just as she was about to call the front desk to ask who sent it, her phone rang suddenly. Emily answered, "Mr. Walton?"

Wilson replied with a laugh, "Do you like it? Isn't it nice to receive flowers in the morning? Makes your whole day, doesn't it?"

"You sent the flowers?" Emily frowned instinctively

"Yes, you transferred me $100 yesterday. I didn't want to just take it without giving something in return. So, I used the leftover money to buy you flowers." Wilson said with a smile, "Don't get the wrong idea. I'm not trying to flirt with you"

Emily smiled, "There was no need!"

"It's just a bouquet, don't overthink it. Now, get to work!" Wilson's tone was gentle and considerate.

Emily said, "Alright, goodbye!"

After hanging up, Charlie and Gavin came over together. Gavin, drawn by the scent of the flowers, walked straight to Emily's desk and with an exaggerated laugh said, "What a big bunch of flowers!" Emily didn't look at Charlie, she just said indifferently. "Mr. Gavin, do you like them? If you do, they're yours!"

"How could I take them? They were sent to you." Gavin leaned against the desk, laughing, "They're from Wilson of Horizon Enterprises, right?" Emily said in surprise, "Mr. Gavin, how did you know?" Gavin raised an eyebrow, "First a date, then flowers. Isn't that the usual routine for a guy chasing a girl? What's so surprising about that?"

Emily felt Charlie's icy gaze. She put the flowers aside and smiled, "Mr. Gavin, you might be barking up the wrong tree!"

"Maybe the reasons are different, but the approach is the same!" Gavin laughed, "Emily, you're too naive. I'm just trying to give you a heads up, keep your distance from Wilson!"

Charlie's face remained expressionless, he just walked straight to the executive office

Emily thought for a moment and nodded seriously. "Thanks for the heads up. Mr. Gavin. I'll keep that in mind!"

"No problem!" Gavin said with a laugh, "I'm off to see Mr. James."

"Alright!" Emily pursed her lips, revealing her dimples.

A day later, Wilson called to invite Emily for dinner, but she declined, citing overtime as an excuse.

Wilson didn't push further, and didn't contact Emily for the next two days.

Emily didn't think Wilson was pursuing her or trying to gain something through her, but Gavin's words made sense. Their companies were in the midst of a collaboration, so keeping some distance from him was probably for the best.

On Friday afternoon, Betty called to invite Emily for dinner.

Feeling guilty for having left abruptly at their last gathering, Emily agreed happily. She insisted on treating Betty to dinner as a form of compensation. Betty didn't refuse and quickly arranged a meeting place with Emily.

Just as she was about to leave work, Estelle called Emily, saying Magdalen was throwing a dinner party and hoped she and Kya could attend. Emily laughed helplessly, "Why does everything have to happen all at once?"

Estelle asked, "What's up? Did someone else ask you out?"

"I have a college buddy who just got back from abroad. I was planning to take her out for dinner tonight."

Estelle laughed, "Well, you go on then. Magdalen will be fine, we can catch up another time"

"Invite Magdalen to my place over the weekend. I'll cook her some delicious food"

"Alright, you get on with your thing"

After work, Emily took a taxi to the agreed restaurant Betty had just arrived too and they walked into the restaurant together, only to find Wilson there as well Emily was surprised and stopped at the entrance without going in.

Wilson stood up, his smile was very gentle and courteous, "I heard you're playing host today I thought I'd crash the party Hope I'm not intruding

Emily shook her head with a smile, "Not at all "

Come on, sit down Betty said to Emily

Wilson said. "You guys sit first, I have some wine stored here I go check on it'
