Her battle was half won, but Emily was at least thankful that Dr. Kennedy had come to her rescue and saved the day. All of a sudden, she had a newfound respect for the older man, who had been Angelo's lawyer for many years.
Now that the hard part was finished, she had an even harder part to think of, whether she was to take Dr. Kennedy up on his offer and marry Angelo for real.
Angelo sat next to Emily as they drove home, and he could not help but notice that she was looking ahead and had a smile on her face the entire ride home.
"If I had known that all it would take to have you smile like this is to invite Dr. Kennedy to lunch with us, I would have invited him a long time ago," Angelo teased her. Emily turned her head towards Angelo and smiled at him. Seeing him smile was a realization that he was a different man compared to how she had viewed him when she was nothing more than an employee of his.
