Chapter 62 Interest

That statement left Emelie utterly disappointed in her parents.

From then onward, she didn’t contact them for three years until a few months ago, when she randomly decided to call, the call couldn’t go through.

At that time, she sneered. Her parents were unrivaled in their ruthlessness. When they said they were cutting ties, they really meant it.

Now that she heard Greta’s voice and knew she was fine, Emelle stopped worrying about them and decided to live her own life.

She picked up her tea and returned to the secretarial department.

As soon as she sat down, Cindy threw yesterday’s file onto her desk, boasting triumphantly, “I’ve already talked to Mr. Middleton, and he specifically assigned you to take charge.”

Fine. Emelie didn’t want to stay in this chaotic office.

Without saying a word, she picked up the file and her bag and left.

Cindy watched her leave with a malicious look in her eyes.

Emelie left the company and went to a nearby café. She ordered a cup of coffee and sat down to look at

the file.

Half an hour later, she had a good understanding of the project. The current focus was on getting Jeremy to sign a supplementary agreement, which he had overlooked that day.

This was actually a bit difficult.

After all, Jeremy had been coerced into signing the contract that day. If she went to replace him again, he would most likely make things difficult for her.

Emelie was thinking about how to deal with this problem when someone lightly tapped the table.

Following the clearly defined knuckles, she met Samuel’s handsome smile.

He was wearing a new pair of silver–framed glasses today with a glasses chain, looking refined and gentle.

Emelie was somewhat surprised. She straightened up and closed the file.

“Why are you here, Mr. Swanson? Are you here to buy tacos for Ms. Swanson again?

“Speaking of which, I brought the taco from that day to the office to share with my colleagues, and

everyone said they were delicious. Thank you, Mr. Swanson.”

“Oh, it’s my mistake. I should’ve bought more. Just one shouldn’t be enough, right?”

Emelie jokingly said, “How can you say that? It sounds like I’m asking for more.”

Samuel chuckled. “Sorry for making you think that.”

He sat down. “Melanie was still a bit scared after yesterday. I had no classes this morning, so I came over to have lunch with her to reassure her.

“She hasn’t finished work yet, so she asked me to wait here for her.”

“You two have a really good relationship,” Emelle sincerely commented,

Samue! shook his head. “I raised Melanie, so she depends on me more.

Emelie was envious. She had a normal relationship with both of her sisters before. But after that incident, she hadn’t contacted them for the past few years.

“Why are you sitting here, Ms. Hoven? Waiting for someone?” Samuel asked.

Emelie simply replied, “No, I’m about to meet a client, so I’m studying the documents here.”

Seeing that he hadn’t ordered coffee yet, she took the opportunity to suggest, “Let me buy you a cup of coffee.”

Samuel didn’t refuse. “You’re the host here. What you say goes.”

With that, Emelie went to the coffee counter to order a cup for him.

She really liked Samuel’s way of treating people. He wasn’t too formal.

When she accidentally dirtied his shirt, he let her compensate him. And when he treated her to a meal, he Jet her buy him coffee.

He accepted everything graciously, relieving her of any sense of debt.

Despite having just met, it felt as though they had been friends for years.

Emelie returned to the table with the coffee and found that Samuel had picked up her file. Frowning slightly, she put down the coffee.

“Mr. Swanson.”

Samuel handed the contract and the coffee back to her, explaining naturally, “There was a child running around here just now.

“I was afraid he would bump into the table and spill the coffee, so I picked it up. I didn’t mean to touch your things.

Emelie smiled. “I have no reason not to trust you, Mr. Swanson.”

Samuel picked up the coffee. “But I did catch a glimpse of the document.

This company has worked with my eldest brother before, and I’ve seen the documents in his study. It’s been a rising star in the past two years, with great development potential.”

Emelie just said, “Is that so?” With that, she casually brushed past the topic of work.

They didn’t chat for long before leaving the café together.

Samuel was going to the company to pick up Melanie, while Emelie went to replace Jeremy. They parted

ways, each going in their own direction.

Meanwhile, William was preparing to go out and just happened to see them parting ways.

He also saw Samuel stopping after walking about 30 feet and turning back to look at Emelie’s figure.

The gaze behind the lenses was deep. William, being a ma
