Chapter 816 Amiee (1/2)

Even before, Emily knew how Ray could get childish and rebellious at times. Because of this, she decided not to go back to the hospital after the tea break with Tyron. Before they parted ways, she asked Tyron to tell Carol that she was sorry she couldn't come back to take care of her, and that she had something to take care of.

As she sat inside her car, she called back Ray's number.

It seemed as if Ray had been waiting for her to call back, as he answered at the first ring.

”It's been an hour and five minutes since I hung up the phone. You really took your time to eat your meal! Or maybe you were just enjoying your date with someone?”

Ray's voice was like a lazy cat, charming and seemingly sweet, but his words did not make Emily feel pleased.

'What is he even saying? He's so annoying!' thought Emily as she rolled her eyes. ”I'm not dating anyone! We're just friends. Be careful with your words, Ray,” she warned.

'If Jacob found out that I went out with Tyron, he would surely feel jealous. And then I would have to be the one to suffer, ' she thought to herself.

”Oh, is that so? Then who is this friend of yours? Is he so important that you'd have tea with him for more than an hour?”

In truth, Ray already knew that Tyron was once Emily's doctor. He had also done some background check on Tyron. In spite of this, Ray still pretended to know nothing about Tyron because of his own personal agendas.

”You've met him once before. He was my doctor,” answered Emily, not thinking much about revealing Tyron's identity to Ray.

”An hour isn't that long, you know,” she continued. ”It's different for you. You're a movie star. Every minute wasted means there's a lot of money that you haven't made. That's why you feel like it's too long. Anyway, I'm so sorry to keep you waiting.”

Hearing Emily's explanation, Ray scoffed. However, he was smiling complacently. ”Fine. Whatever you say,” he said sarcastically.

”Oh, what do you want me to do?” Emily complained, pouting.
