"If you ever need my help, you can always come to me," Ellar offered.
"No need," Patricia replied, giving a polite nod to Emma before she left.
As Patricia departed, Emma furrowed her brows slightly. "That girl seemed familiar." "She's working for
Nicole," Ellar explained.
"Oh," Emma nodded, seemingly recalling something.
"Mom, I've got work to do. If you want to rest, help yourself to some fruit. Or if you'd rather keep
walking, I can get someone to walk with you," Eliar changed the subject.
Emma gave Ellar a look, feeling disappointed by his eagerness to see them go. She had invited
Doretta over specifically to help them bond, hoping it would bring them closer.
"Aunt Emma, maybe we should let Ellar focus on his work. We can go back home," Doretta suggested.

thoughtful as her, I'd be happy." "It's like fate is making up for it by sending someone thoughtful to be
with you," Ellar said with a smile, trying to make Emma feel better.
As he spoke, Ellar moved closer to Emma and started massaging her shoulders, hoping to please her.
"If you want to relax here, feel free. How about I buy you lunch? Would you like that?"
Emma looked more content. "That sounds much better."
Ellar rolled his eyes discreetly, then said with a smile, "Great. I'll have my assistant book a table." "Pick
a restaurant with character. Doretta doesn't know this area, so it’d be nice for her to try some of San
Joto's specialties," Emma suggested.
"Sure thing," Ellar said, heading out.
Emma smiled at Doretta. "Let's stay here and wait to have lunch with Ellar." "Sounds good to me,"
Doretta replied with a smile.
Emma's smile grew wider, pleased with Doretta's agreeable nature.
Little did they know, Ellar would use this as an excuse to leave them in the office.
After waiting for a while without seeing Ellar return, Emma frowned." Where did he go? Didn't he say he
had work to do?"
Feeling uneasy, Emma stood up and left the office.
"Where's Mr. Riddle?" she asked the secretary.
"Mr. Riddle had to attend an unexpected meeting and has already left the company," the secretary
explained.
"That rascal..." Emma muttered under her breath, annoyed that Eliar had left without informing them.
The secretary continued, "He has already made a reservation for you. You can go directly there when
it's time."

with US."
Doretta, who had followed her out, noticed Emma's change in expression and couldn't help but ask,
"Aunt Emma, what happened?" "Oh, nothing. Ellar had something come up and won't be able to join
US for lunch. Looks like it's just you and me," Emma explained to Doretta.
"It's understandable that he's busy," Doretta said considerately.
Emma smiled. "Let's go then. It's not lunchtime yet; I'll take you to get some new clothes." "I have
enough clothes, Aunt Emma," Doretta replied, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"But you're starting a new job soon, and you'll need new clothes. It'll also make a good impression
during your interviews," Emma insisted, gently pulling Doretta along with her.
