Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 1269

Emily felt a bit uneasy and gave an awkward chuckle, "What's your take on it?"

"I’ve told them that's not the case, but they won’t take my word for it. They think I'm siding with them, deliberately hiding the truth." Martin shook his head, "I'm just as clueless, to be honest."

Emily took a sip of her lemonade and chuckled awkwardly, “Actually, someone else helped them, but the Ferber Family thought it was you. No big deal, as long as they stop bothering you!”

Martin nodded, “I've already turned down that medical equipment project. Do you think the Ferber Family will give you guys any trouble?”

"Even if they do come knocking, we can't possibly meet all their demands unconditionally." Emily’s eyes were a bit frosty, she was completely fed up with the Ferber Family's shameless behavior.

Martin seemed to be pondering something, “Maybe I could talk to the hospital management, see if I can help them out.”

"No way!" Emily rejected firmly, "If you do that, we can't be friends anymore!"

After all, it wasn't fair to drag innocent Martin into this mess.

Martin looked at her deeply, “Are you worried about me or just don’t want to cause me any trouble?”

Emily replied candidly, “Dr. Martin, you've been so attentive when taking care of my mom. I’m just grateful. There’s nothing beyond friendship. So of course, I don't want our problems to cause you any trouble.”

Martin looked a bit disappointed, “Don’t you like me even a bit? Am I really that bad?”

Emily quickly shook her head, "No, it's just I have too many problems of my own. I haven’t even thought about dating."

"I know about your issues, but to me, they're not really issues, you're just overthinking!" Martin laughed, "You’re so well-educated and pretty. If you didn’t have a kid, I probably would never dare to court you. Because you do, I feel there’s a glimmer of hope.”

Emily knew Martin was trying to console her and couldn’t help laughing, "Stop joking around, you're so great, you'll definitely find a better girl."

"Are you rejecting me in a roundabout way?" Martin sighed.

Emily laughed even harder, "I'm being serious!"
