"I had just come back from a series of meetings," Clayton said as he looked at their picture on his desk. "Did you have lunch?" Emerald was worried that he skipped lunch. Clayton was silent and didn't dare to lie to her. "Babe, I told you not to skip lunch even how busy you are." "That's why I'm asking you to work here in my office so you can be here to remind me," Clayton replied.

If she didn't barge into the room, what would have happened?Slapped with reality on the face, Emerald regretted coming into Clayton's office.

Despite that she was reeling from she had just seen, Emerald managed to strode away without staggering and entered the elevator.

He couldn't sleep a wink thinking how to track Emerald again.He was afraid that this time, their paths would never cross again. Again, first thing in the morning, he called Emerald but his call was unanswered. He decided to send her a message. [Babe, please come back. Please talk to me. I don't know how my life would look without you, baby.] Clayton was praying that Emerald would read it and agree to talk with him. A message from Constantine arrived after he sent his message.

"Go back to your work. Remember that you are given a limited time to fix it. The president won't be lenient to you." Constantine said, dispersing them to stop the gossip.

Like a school boy reading his conversation with his crush, Clayton re- read his and Emerald's conversation, smiling.He thought he could use this to coax her to come back and forgive him. [Babe, I've been thinking about you. I was in a bad mood, scolding almost all department heads because I badly missed you. Baby, I love you] Clayton had no idea that Emerald had already blacklisted his number. And his messages will remain unread.

Hearing that familiar voice, Emerald froze and halted. One part of her wanted to look at him but the other part refused to do so. "Are you having doubts?" Red whispered. Emerald pacified her troubled emotion, lifted her legs to walk into the jetway leading to the aircraft. "Emerald! Don't leave, baby!" She heard the anguish in his voice, but she toughened herself lest he will have the upper hand again. "Sir, please don't shout here. The passengers are complaining," The guard who accompanied Clayton said. Clayton nodded and didn't create any noise. He simply watched Emerald disappear into the jetway.Still hoping that Emerald will change her mind at the last minute, Clayton remained at the boarding gate and left only when the airplane took off. *** "Did the lawyer find any loophole in the contract?"

And even if she's here she won't see you." "I'm here to talk to you," Clayton responded "There's nothing to talk to," Jim scowled at Clayton. He couldn't believe that Clayton was so thick-skinned to show his face after what he had done. "You still have the audacity to come and see me," Jim growled. Remembering how Emerald cried as she retold everything that happened made Jim's blood boil. "Get out of my house!" Jim yelled."Love, calm down!" Caroline stroked Jim's arm.
