After listening to Monica Baldwin, Emma Mills simply smiled and said, "I really cannot help you."
Monica Baldwin shook her head understandingly. She indeed wanted to break away from the Hanson brothers, but she wouldn't stoop so low as to exploit someone else's wounds; she'd been used herself on someone else's path to success. As such, she naturally understood Emma Mills' agony.
On the way back, Meghan couldn't help but ask Monica Baldwin, "Do you believe what Emma Mills said? The affair was public knowledge when she was caught in bed."
Monica Baldwin did not answer Meghan's question.
"Moreover, why would she share such intimate details on your very first meeting?"
"Because she doesn't want me to seek her out a second time," Monica replied, "I didn't believe her merely on her word alone, rather I have also reviewed the material from both you and Victor. Given what I know about the Hanson brothers, I'm more inclined to believe Emma."
