Chapter 203: Chapter 203

Emmeline had no idea how to explain to Janie.

“Mr. Benjamin.” Janie suddenly burst into tears and asked chokingly, “I understand now. You don’t accept me because you like your cousin, right?”

Benjamin was speechless.

Janie looked at Emmeline again “Emma, I thought you were my best friend. It turned out you were lying to me!”

Janie threw the lunch box and flowers on the ground. Then, she turned and ran away.

Emmeline and Benjamin were dumbfounded on the spot.

Emmeline would order Benjamin to chase Janie if they were on the main road. But now, they were in the building of Adelmar Group.

Benjamin was the highest leader of the Adelmar Group, so she could not order him to go after Janie.

However, she did not want to break Janie’s heart. Few girls dared to love so boldly these days. That was why she wanted to help Janie.

“I’m leaving first,” Emmeline said unhappily to Benjamin.

Since I can’t order Benjamin to go after Janie, I’ll go after Janie myself.

“I’ll send you off,” Benjamin said.

“No need.” Emmeline shook her head. “I’ll go down with the CEO’s private elevator.”

Benjamin said nothing more because many people were nearby the CEO’s office.

Those people were thinking and guessing about the relationship between Benjamin and Emmeline since she could take the CEO’s private elevator freely.

“Have you all ever seen beauty?” Benjamin shouted to them.

They immediately closed their office doors.

Emmeline took the CEO’s private elevator down to the first floor, and Janie had long since disappeared. She took out her phone and called Janie.

At first, Janie did not answer. She was probably out of anger. When Emmeline called again, Janie picked it up.

It was Janie who spoke first. ‘Emma, I can’t believe what I saw. I can’t believe you’re lying to me.”

“You’re right if you don’t believe it,” Emmeline said as she walked, “I have a close relationship with Benjamin, but it’s not what you think. We’re not in love. I’ve said it a hundred times.”

“I trust you, or you wouldn’t help me pursue Mr. Benjamin, but…”

After a pause, Janie continued, “Emma, have you noticed that Mr. Benjamin looks at you differently?”

Emmeline was a bit difficult to answer for Janie.

She had noticed Benjamin’s feelings toward her three years ago. But their relationship did not change because of that.

She was still his young master, and he was still her butler. Their relationship was pure.

“Emma, are you listening?” Janie could not hear Emmeline’s voice.

Emmeline answered, “Janie, let’s meet and talk. I can’t make it clear on the phone.”

Janie responded happily, “Okay, I’ll treat you to coffee!”

Emmeline said, “Let’s not drink coffee. I always drink it.”

“That’s right. How about tea?”

“Okay. Which tea room shall we go to?”

“The one opposite the Adelmar Group on the north side.”

Emmeline looked across from Adelmar Group. There was an antique building, which obstructed her sight, but Emmeline remembered a tea room behind it.

“I just got off the building I’ll wait for you on the opposite side.”

Janie answered, “Okay! I just arrived at the intersection. I’ll turn around ahead.”

After about ten minutes, Janie parked the car and entered the tea room. As Janie still wore the delivery man’s costume, the waiter thought she was delivering food “I came to meet my friend,” Janie explained hastily.

“Janie, I’m here.” Emmeline stood up and waved to Janie.

Janie hurried over and sat opposite Emmeline.

The waiter had already brewed a pot of tea, then left.

Janie pouted. “Emma, do you think I feel wrong? Women’s feelings are very accurate. Mr. Benjamin likes you.”

“Uh…” Emmeline gave a cup of tea to Janie and answered, “Maybe you don’t feel wrong, but you have to believe that Benjamin and I don’t have a relationship. That’s enough.”

But if Mr. Benjamin likes you. How can he accept me?” Janie was a little worried. “You’re so beautiful and lovely. I can’t replace you.”

“I misjudged you. How could such a difficulty scare you? I wouldn’t have matched you and Benjamin if knew your timidity. Anyway, I have nothing to do with him. You just watch him marry another woman in the future.”

“That won’t work!” Janie almost jumped up. “Mr. Benjamin can only marry me!”

“Good to have the courage.” Emmeline pouted. “I know I’ll never be with Benjamin, and I think you’re good, so I tried to match you two. Do you think I’m that free to help you?”

“I understand now.” Janie blushed a little. “I’ll seize the opportunity to pursue Mr. Benjamin.”

Emmeline said, “That’s the best. I don’t want Benjamin to be alone forever. I’ll feel uncomfortable to see that.”

Janie patted her chest. “Don’t worry. Leave this problem to me! He won’t be single later!”

“That’s great!” Emmeline laughed “As long as you work hard, you can success.”

Janie nodded. She must have perseverance and would not give up until she could be with Benjamin.

Thinking of Benjamin, Janie blushed.

Emmeline saw Janie blush and felt a little puzzled.

“What’s wrong with you? I only encouraged you. Why are you blushing?”

Janie tugged at the collar.

“Nothing. The clothes are a bit thick. I’m hot.”

“Drink more tea.” Emmeline poured her tea. “You’ll feel better.”

Janie picked up the teacup and took a sip. The atmosphere between them eased, and it turned into chatting.

Suddenly, Janie stared at the phone screen and said, “What does she mean? Is she getting engaged?”

Emmeline raised her head when she heard that, then gossiped, “Who wants to get engaged?”

Janie responded, “It’s Alana Lane. The entertainment reporters always like to obtain her news.”

Alana?” Emmeline froze for a moment. “Show it to me.”‘

”

Janie turned the phone screen to Emmeline.

Emmeline stared and saw it was a Twitter repost by an entertainment reporter, and the original link was indeed named Alana.

“Thanks to him for giving me time to restore my health and beauty. I look forward to the engagement with him.”

Those words hit Emmeline’s heart like a hammer. It made her suffocate, stuffy, and painful.

It turns out that Abel is going to be engaged to Alana. Abel was not perfunctory with Old Mr. Ryker.

Otherwise, Alana wouldn’t dare to post publicly!

Emmeline suddenly wiped her mouth hard.

Janie was taken aback, then asked, “Emma, is something wrong with this tea?”

“Nope,” Emmeline replied.

“Then, why are you wiping your mouth so hard?”

“I suddenly remembered Late blue cheese. I still feel smelly now.”
