Emerson spent the rest of the day in shock. He originally planned to bring Halia to the boxing club so he could teach her a few moves and impress her, but he ended up being the one that was impressed by her instead. Who was this woman? Wasn't her family involved with alcohol? Why was she such a good boxer?
"No one's seen you in over a decade, not even at the office. Tell me the truth, are you secretly an underground boxer?" Emerson joked.
"I've been studying," Halia replied. "I only graduated 2 years ago and I've been working from home, so no one's seen me."
Halia couldn't reveal to Emerson that she was a police officer since she was technically still investigating him, so she lied a little.
"I did a bit of boxing during my uni days, but it was nothing professional. It was just for fun," Halia explained.
