His mind went blank, feeling like he got caught red-handed by Emily, his heart pounding.
Emily couldn't find Jack and was about to go upstairs when she encountered Eva coming over. She wanted to greet Eva with a smile, but noticing Eva looking a bit flustered and then seeing Jack behind her, Emily realized Jack had been in Eva's office all along. No wonder she couldn't find him.
But Emily felt puzzled. Why did Eva seem guilty, like she had been caught doing something secretive?
With this thought, Emily scanned Eva from head to toe but found nothing unusual.
Eva's face was a bit flushed, her hair slightly messy, like she had just been through some intense activity.
Emily narrowed her eyes and thought, 'Wasn't Eva just with Jack in the office? Did they do something scandalous in there?'
A bizarre thought crossed Emily's mind, shocking her. She suspiciously glanced between Eva and Jack, trying to find some clues.
