Charlie scoffed. “What gossip? Even if you’re the woman I fancy and you’re assigned to work with me, who dares to judge?”

Emily was taken aback, her cheeks flushing. She looked down and whispered, “You might not care, but I do.”

Charlie regretted; he had blurted them out without much thought.

As soon as Emily entered, she immediately took a step back to maintain distance.
