Chapter 316: Different Woman

Before quitting her job at Haven Group, Emily had been Derek's PA for two years. During those two years, though they had practically joined at the hip, there had been some boundaries that they had never crossed.

And one of those lines, had been keeping work and family life separate. That boundary, staying firmly in place, had meant that in the two years that she had worked for him, Emily had never met.Derek Haven's mother. 

But just from being exposed to her son on a regular basis, Emily had built this image of what the woman who had raised Derek would be like. In her mind's eye, she had seen this elegant lady. Someone eant for attending extravagant partiesand gliding on the dance floor as she charmed various people with just a simple smile, and a tinkling laugh. Emily had imagined a force of nature.
