Chapter 1513 Blushed (1/2)
The atmosphere between them grew more and more awkward. Out of embarrassment, they subconsciously made several small movements. Finally, the elevator stopped. The two of them moved forward at the same time, and their shoulders touched.
It was indeed awkward. As they walked out of the elevator, an employee standing outside greeted Emily.
”Good morning, Miss Bai.
How come you arrived here with Estelle today? Did you two come from the same direction?”
Stunned by the question, Estelle chose to look away.
As for Emily, she just nodded hastily and then walked toward her office, pretending that nothing had happened. She had mixed feelings. Estelle had come clean to her and told her the truth. But although she could understand the reason for Estelle's betrayal, she could not forgive her, not yet at least.
Estelle had promised her that she had turned over a new leaf and was completely a new person. Perhaps she had really made up her mind to repent. 'Should I trust her again?' Emily asked herself.

In the afternoon, she hesitated to knock on Emily's office door to discuss her designs with her. She wanted to consult with Emily regarding the designs she had drawn up just like before, but because of the tension between them, staying in a room together would not be so pleasant.
Emily had persuaded herself that she should forgive Estelle, but Estelle was still drowning in guilt and walking on eggshells around her, making the air hang heavily above them.
Finally, it was time to get off work. Emily was ready to head out. As soon as she walked out of the company's gate, she saw Jacob's luxury car parked by the side of the road. Jacob was leaning against the door while fondly gazing at her as she walked up to him. His tall figure and handsome face made many passers-by turn their heads to look at him.
But in Jacob's
