Chapter 244
Dillan’s project plan was unanimously approved.
When the meeting was over, Gilda was the first to leave the meeting room, followed by Eric, who was giving her an update on his work.
As soon as they reached the door of Gilda’s office, they were stopped by a sudden volce, saying, “Gilda!” Then Emily walked to Gilda smilingly.
Gilda was taken aback, wondering why Emily came to her. Since she divorced Jensen, Gilda had stopped Interacting with any member of the Harrington family or their relatives.
Gilda said politely, “Emily, what can I do for you?”
Emily raised the box in her hand and said, “Grandma asked me to bring you chicken soup…”
Gilda nodded, closed the file in her hand, and handed it to Eric. “Just do as you say.”
“Yes, Ms. Lynch, Eric said before taking off.
Gilda then looked at Emily and said, “Emily, would you like to come into my office?”
Emily agreed and followed Gilda in.
Emily was impressed by the change in Gilda’s aura. In the past, Gilda had always been subservient and humble in the Harrington family.
Emily never took Gilda seriously, not even after she started working as Jensen’s secretary and somehow having a say as a result.
Emily felt under pressure how that Gilda had become the CEO of Glory Corporation.
Things had actually changed.
“Gilly, you’ve changed a lot!” Emily said the moment she stepped in..
“You a job.” Gilda replied humbly. “Please take a seat, Emily.”
t be kidding. It’s
Emily sat down on the couch and then placed the lunch box on the desk. “Try it. Grandma specially asked me to bring it over for you.”
Gilda took it and said distantly, “Please tell her I am very grateful. Thank you for bringing it here for me.”
Emily smiled and said, “You don’t need to say thanks. Grandma has long regarded you as her granddaughter.

Gilda didn’t respond.
Emily opened the box, filled a bowl with the soup, and handed it to Gilda.
She asked, “Have you ever considered rekindling with Jensen, Gilda? After all, this is Grandma’s greatest wish…”
Gilda took it and responded seemingly casually but firmly, “Emily, this is nothing worth mentioning again.”
Emily didn’t believe it. “But Gilly, Jensen still cares about you. You saw he was always the first to stand up for you just like he did on Grandma’s birthday.”
Unexpectedly, Gilda changed the topic and asked, “Emily, are you in love?”
Emily subconsciously grabbed her clothes, feeling a little nervous.
She even stammered, “I… I haven’t found the love of my life yet. I don’t want to sell myself short.”
Gilda took a sip of the soup and said, “Likewise, I don’t want to sell myself short either.”
Gilda’s words suggested that if she put the past behind her and rekindled with Jensen, she would feel wronged.
Emily felt delighted as she understood what Gilda meant.
She didn’t want Gilda to bother Jensen.
Bringing Gilda soup was not Emily’s purpose to come here today. She had more important things to do, so she smiled awkwardly and continued, “Okay! I apologize for bringing it up.”
