The more Emma Johnson thought about it, the more irritated she became. To distract herself, she took out her laptop and started working on her drawing, but she couldn't get rid of her worries. It wasn't until dawn that Emma finally drifted off to sleep. Suddenly, the sound of a melodious alarm rang out in her room, and Emma opened her eyes and sat up from her bed, exhausted. She felt like getting up before she was fully awake. She had thought about lying down for a while, but it was getting late. With no choice, she dragged her tired body out of bed, simply cleaned herself up. hurriedly ate breakfast, and immediately rushed to the company.
Walking to her workstation, she suddenly smelled a strong smell of pork chop soup, Emma could not help but feel puzzled, who would drink pork chop soup in the morning? When she was about to check, she suddenly realized that her desk and chair were wet.
"Emma, what's going on?" Passing by Rachel Smith saw this scene, can't help but stop walking, full of doubt inquired.
"I don't know." Emma frowned slightly, despite saying that, she had already guessed who did it. Other than Olivia Brooks, she couldn't think of anyone else who would be bored enough to do this. Rachel sighed helplessly, pulling wet wipes out of her bag and offering to help wipe the table, and Emma looked relieved that Rachel was the only person in the company who was genuinely nice to her.
"Rachel, you go and get busy, I'll just clean up myself." She barely managed to squeeze out a smile, pretending not to care. Rachel insisted on helping to finish wiping the table before returning to her workstation. "Emma, go downstairs, someone's looking for you." After cleaning up the area, she hadn't even sat down when the receptionist came over.
Emma was puzzled in her mind, secretly guessing who could be looking for her at this time. Except for Summer Thompson, she had hardly ever contacted anyone else in the country.

Emma was puzzled in her mind, secretly guessing who could be looking for her at this time. Except for Summer Thompson, she had hardly ever contacted anyone else in the country.
"Yes, I know." She answered, temporarily put down the matter in hand, and walked
towards the hall on the first floor.
As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw a gorgeous middle-aged woman sitting on a sofa in the lobby, seemingly waiting for her.
"Hello, are you looking for me?" Emma asked with a polite smile on her face.
Lily Woods put down the coffee in her hand, looked up slowly, and surveyed her from head to toe with a contemptuous gaze. This sent a wave of discomfort through Emma.
"Of course I'm here for you." Lily sneered, then stood up.
Emma was wary, feeling like this woman was here for trouble, but she was sure she hadn't offended her, and today was the first time they had met. Emma took half a step back, her mind on guard, "Do we know each other?"
The result of the words just fell, Lily's a loud slap resounded throughout the hall, Emma was instantly slapped by this slap confused, unable to react.
Lily raised her arm again, but this time Emma stopped it in time and didn't let her get away with it.
Emma's eyes flashed a little bit of ruthlessness, holding her arm-tightly, said seriously: "You've already slapped her, do you still want to make a move? Don't think that just because you're older, I'll give in to you!" She shook her hand fiercely, and Lily immediately took two steps back.
