Chapter 1622
Gavin chimed in, “The transaction records, the photos of Ms. Sullivan meeting Mr. Walton, and the photos of
someone sending gifts to her. Do you believe all these are coincidentally captured? Have any of you considered the
possibility that someone might be intentionally framing Ms. Sullivan and Horizon Enterprises, using it as a means to
knock Horizon out of the bidding project? You’re all smart and I believe you can see the hidden schemes.”
Gavin’s words made the representatives appear suddenly enlightened and contemplative.
It did seemed too coincidental. Moreover, what was even more suspicious was that the fact they had all received
the anonymous email accusing Emily and Horizon Enterprises at the same time. Who was behind all of this?
Could it be Horizon Enterprises after all!
Initially, these four companies were united in their desire to demand explanations from the James Group. However,
at this moment, they began to suspect that any of them might be involved.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMr. Larry scoffed, “Mr. Gavin, don’t try to mislead us. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. If Emily were truly
innocent, it wouldn’t be so much evidence against her.”
Gavin responded firmly, “There are too many doubts in this case. I promised I would give you an explanation, and I
will. Please give us some time and don’t let yourself be used as tools by others”
At this point, the representatives became less angry and impulsive. They began to calm down and asked, “When
will you provide us with an explanation, Mr. Gavin?”
“Will the bidding process continue?”
The matter had a severe impact. We hope the James Group won’t escalate the matter further but sincerely resolve
it.”
Gavin explained to them one by one, and the representatives finally regained their composure.
There was nothing more to be said at this point. Gavin asked his assistant escort the representatives out and took
Emily back to the thirty-ninth floor.
Gavin pressed the elevator button and smiled at Emily, “You really impressed me back there!”
“Well?” Emily widened her eyes, “What did I do?”
Gavin gazed at her with amusement, “You were so composed. I thought you might be frightened by them, but you
presented your evidence logically and stayed composed throughout. That’s really commendable!”
Emily raised an eyebrow and laughed, “That’s because I’m innocent. And besides, I have you by my side, right, Mr.
Gavin?”
Gavin nodded, “Don’t worry, Mr. James won’t let anyone bully you.”
Emily felt a bit embarrassed, puzzled by Gavin’s repeated mention of Charlie. She bit her lip and said softly. “I’ve
caused a lot of trouble for the company due to my carelessness. And it’s made people question Mr. James’s
judgement.
She looked at Gavin with determination in her eyes, “I will investigate it and offer a satisfactory explanation to the
company and the bidders.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGavin grinned, “Good, I’ll convey that to Mr. James.”
When the elevator doors opened, Emily followed Gavin without further comment.
In the evening, when Emily returned home, she immediately asked Ms. Simmons if anyone had send anything in the
past few days.
“You know about it?” Ms. Simmons looked surprised.
“Is it true?” Emily asked urgently, “Where are the items?”
Seeing Emily’s anxiousness, Ms. Simmons hurriedly led her to the storage room by the kitchen. She opened the
cupboard, revealing a collection of exquisite gift boxes. There were expensive supplements, luxury jewelries, and
handbags from high-end brands.
Emily stared at the items, her eyes widening in shock. She turned to Ms. Simmons and asked, “When were these
received? Why didn’t you tell me?”
Ms. Simmons explained, “Emily, I was worried because you and Mr. James broke up. Mr. James was trying to make
amends and send these gifts to you.
You shouldn’t be so stubborn.”
Emily raised a hand to her forehead, trembling with anger.
It was only then that Ms. Simmons realize something was amiss, “Emily, are you angry?”
