Chapter 263

“She stepped out?” Emmett raised his eyebrows. I thought she had a meeting today, right? Is anything special

going on that she needs

to bustle out?”

Ricardo shook his head. “I’m not so sure myself, but her meeting’s probably over. Maybe she has some stuff to take

care of.”

Emmett waved his hand dismissively and said, ‘Alright, gotcha. I’ll give her a ring later, you do your thing.”

“Sure thing, Mr. Melendez.”

After Ricardo left, Emmett immediately dialed Clara’s number, only to find no one answering!

He wasn’t suspecting anything; he was just worried Clara might be in a pickle!

So Emmett decided to shoot her a text. Just as he was about to type, Clara called him up.

“You were looking for me?” Clara asked.

“Where did you run off to? You didn’t even let me in on it.”

“Oh, my face felt kind of off, so I went to grab some toner. It took me a while to pick one.” Clara chuckled. “Sorry.

I’m heading back now!” “Your face felt off?” Emmett mused, “Alright, come back first; we’ll talk then.”

After hanging up, Emmett looked at his phone, his inner puzzle intensifying.

Clara didn’t seem like the type to go shopping during work hours! So, she must be telling porkies.

But why? What would Clara need to hide?

Could it have something to do with Taylor Atwood?

Emmett got up, heading to Ricardo’s office.

Upon seeing him, Ricardo immediately stood up and asked, “What’s up, Mr. Melendez? If you need me, just buzz

me, and I’ll come over!” “No biggie. Keep an eye on Taylor these couple of days; see what he’s up to and who he’s

meeting.”

“Is AW Company being a pain in the neck again?”

“No, I’ve got other fish to fry.”

Ricardo nodded. “Alright, I’ll have someone look into it.”

“Also, if you notice Clara sneaking off without telling anyone, especially without telling me, let me know, then have

someone tail her.”

Ricardo paused, stealing a glance at Emmett, before nodding, “Got it, Mr. Melendez.”

Emmett turned on his heel and left, leaving Ricardo in a cloud of confusion.

Could it be that Mr. Melendez and Ms. Calloway have something fishy going on?

“Could Ms. Calloway be playing away from home?” Ricardo muttered to himself before quickly covering his mouth

and glancing around; thankfully, no one heard him.

“Ugh, that Ms. Calloway really doesn’t know what’s good for her. What’s so great about Taylor? He’s miles away

from Mr. Melendez. I really don’t get women’s taste.”

Clara hurried back to the company, deleting all the call logs from Elio..

As soon as she walked in, she saw Ricardo seemingly waiting for her.

“Ms. Calloway, Mr. Melendez wants to see you.”

“Okay, got it.” Clara was about to leave.

Ricardo suddenly stopped her, mysteriously saying, “Ms. Calloway, I don’t know exactly what’s going on, but… Mr.

Melendez is definitely a catch! You better appreciate him!”

Clara paused, then gave a slight smile and said, “I get it.”

“Just now I noticed Mr. Melendez seemed a bit down. When you talk to him, be careful! Men, especially the kind like

Mr. Melendez who value their dignity, usually need to be treated with kid gloves.”

Tunderstand; thanks, Ricardo!”
