Chapter 241
Chapter 241
Emily had already guessed that Jeremy would make a move against Walter, but she hadn’t expected him to act so fast, pulling something like that in broad daylight.
She knew Jeremy’s methods were anything but ordinary, and she probably wouldn’t find much, but she still arranged for
someone to look into the hit-and-run driver.
She also had more people quietly stationed at the hospital to protect Walter. If he managed to survive, Jeremy would make another move, and she had to make sure everything was in place.
As Emily was making arrangements over the phone and heading out, she had barely taken a few steps when someone blocked her way. “Ms. Harper, what a coincidence!”
It was Jeremy. He appeared out of nowhere and took the initiative to greet her with a smile. He acted so naturally, it was as if they’d known each other for years.
Emily put away her phone and gave him a polite but distant nod, acknowledging his greeting.
She and Jeremy were complete strangers with absolutely no connection. If they passed each other on the street, they should’ve acted like they didn’t even recognize one another.
For him to stop her like that, there’s no way he just wanted to say hi. Sure enough, Jeremy asked, “Ms. Harper, are you here to see Yvonne?”
Emily looked up at him and shot back, “And you, Mr. Windrose?”
Jeremy didn’t deny it, but explained further, “Ms. Harper, don’t get me wrong. My relationship with Yvonne is strictly business. I had no clue about what she was up to. I’m only here today because we’ve worked together before.
