Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 1742

Chapter 1742

“Take it easy!" Gavin said, chuckling and raising an eyebrow, “It's no biggie. Just that on Friday night, Emily escorted you upstairs and some folks saw it. They started making a fuss, slandering Emily, throwing dirt on her name."

Charlie's eyes hardened, "Chad?"

Gavin nodded, “Most likely."

Charlie put away the document in his hand and stood up, heading for the door, “I'm going to Paragon Pixel Design!"

After a few steps, he paused as if remembering something. He turned to Gavin, "You handle this."

Gavin teased, “What, don't want Emily to know you're standing up for her?"

A trace of annoyance crossed Charlie's face, “You got her into this mess. You clean it up. If you can't, don't bother coming back!"

Gavin chuckled, “Alright, I'll go. Even if I have to tear down Paragon Pixel Design, I'll protect Emily. And my job!"

"Quit stalling, get going!" Charlie frowned.

Gavin could tell Charlie was worried. He felt a pang of sympathy for the guy, who couldn't even openly show his affection.

With a meaningful sigh, Gavin turned and left.

Ron had been out all day and was unaware of the rumors about Emily. It wasn't until his assistant called to say Gavin had arrived that he hurried back.

"Mr. Gavin!" Ron exclaimed, obviously anxious. “If I had known you were coming, I wouldn't have kept you waiting!"
