Chapter 227 The Uninvited Guest

Emily returned home after her last meeting with the team, instructing everyone to send their reports to her email so she could review them at home. With little work left on her plate, she figured it was better to occupy herself rather than succumb to boredom until sleep overtook her. Feeling exhausted, she didn’t have much appetite and decided to skip dinner. Her mood was particularly sour after Matteo’s mother and his fiancée had shown up at his office, humiliating Emily for no reason at all. The sting of their condescension lingered, making it difficult for her to shake off the negativity throughout the whole day.
