Chapter 25 Summary

Emma doesn’t know what to do after Charlie’s confessions, but knowing she is under contract and not knowing what else to do, she continues to work. They work at the same table but in solitude for hours, and Emma debates whether to make him the dinner she promised to make tonight to celebrate him being cancer-free. She does make the best dinner she could think of and wears a skimpy dress Sylvie had sent her in an attempt to make Charlie regret rejecting her. However, Emma ends up drinking a bottle of champagne as she waits for Charlie, who doesn’t show up. Feeling like she needs to punish Charlie, she decides to jump off the diving board outside. Charlie comes home just as she is about to dive, and she berates him for standing her up. He didn’t know that their dinner was still on, and he had gone to visit Cuthbert, who hadn’t been eating again. Charlie seems genuinely nervous to see Emma on the diving board and comes up to get her despite his fears. Emma doesn’t notice this until later, but Charlie isn’t pretending not to care as he usually does. Emma decides to come down, and Charlie is relieved until she trips off the diving board and into the pool.
