Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1617

Emily turned to look at him and smiled faintly, "I'm too busy with work and taking care of my child. I don't have that much time."

"Your child is over two years old, right? Have you tried to contact her father since you've come back?" Wilson asked.

Emily's pregnancy was no secret. Betty knew about it, and of course, so did Wilson.

Emily shook her head, "No, the child is solely mine. It's unrelated to anyone else."

Wilson looked at her with admiration, "Emily, sometimes you really impress me."

Emily smiled, "The meeting's about to start, Mr. Walton. You should head back."

"Alright!" Wilson knew Emily was cautious, so he didn't press further. "Betty's café is almost done with renovations. We should visit it together sometime."

"Sounds good!" Emily nodded with a smile.

Wilson left the room, and Emily waited a while before returning to the conference room.

The second half of the meeting involved the five companies submitting their proposals, awaiting the James Group review them for the next round of selection.

Gavin roughly reviewed the five proposals. When he saw the base price of Horizon Enterprises, his eyebrows furrowed. He turned to Charlie and said, "Mr. James, please take a look at this."

Charlie took the proposals, his eyes narrowing as he glanced briefly at Emily. His face showed no emotion, but his gaze grew serious.

Gavin calmly had the five proposals sealed, announced the end of the meeting, and instructed the representatives of these five companies to await further instructions.

The representatives stood up and respectfully say goodbye to Charlie.

As they walked through the corridor on their way out, Waters looked at the general manager of Iriver Group and joked, "Mr. Matz seems nervous, you’re even sweating!"
