Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 188

Chapter 188 He Didn’t 

William grabbed her hand. As Emelie tried to pull away, he used tweezers to hold a cotton ball soaked in lodine solution against her palm 

Emelie took a sharp breath. 

With a mocking glance, William persisted in treating the scraped skin on her palm from when she fell out of the tree. 

The scratches were neither too deep nor shallow. Since she didn’t bandage them and washed her hands, the skin was slightly raised and pale. 

Dmelie wondered when he saw it. Even Samuel, who stayed for so long, didn’t notice at all. 

William said, “At least put on a Band–Aid ” 

“It’s just a scratch. It ll heal in a few days.” 

William applied ointment to the wound with a cotton swab. “You’ll see if it heals when you die from tetanus,” he said. 

Indeed, Emelie thought to herself that a leopard couldn’t change its spot. 

After treating one hand, William went to take her other hand. However, Emelie had already taken charge, handling the tweezers and cotton balls herself. 

“It’s okay, Mr. Middleton, I can do it myself.” 

Unfazed, William wiped his hands with a tissue and said in a calm voce, “just stay still and let someone else help you. Why trouble yourself?” 

“I’ve always relied on myself.” 

“You do know you’re not likable.” 

Emelie got his point, sensing his disapproval of her independence. She smirked and said, “I don’t need to please anyone.” 

Under the lamplight, William’s face looked fair and handsome, with calm, dark eyes. 

Emelle focused on her wound, not caring about his reaction. Atter applying the cintment, she politely suggested he go back and rest. 

“Thanks for the first aid lot, Mr. Middleton. I’m flaenow. You should rest” 

Williams casually undid a button, saying “You’re fine, but I’m not.” 

Emelle realized he wanted her to help him with the wound on his back. 

She calmly declined, saying, “I asked you three times in the car if you needed to go to the hospital, and you said no. If you need help now, ask Mr. Gleamfieldor Mr. Swanson.” 

Willam raised an eyebrow. “Was 1 injured while trying to save Jayden or Samuel?” 

“I didn’t cause your injury, Mr. Middleton,” Emelle clarified. “I saw it clearly. You didn’t shield me from the blow; you just didn’t dodge it in time. And a reminded you to let me go, but you thought you could handle it‘ 

William huffed and said, “Didn’t Tcome to find 

Emelie objectively analyzed, “Without Ms. May, I wouldn’t be in this trouble. And she targeted me because of you. So, ultimately, it’s you who caused me harm.” 

William chuckled coldly. 

Emelie was certainly clear–headed, rational, and logical. 

He suddenly held her chin. “Emehe, have you heard this saying? 

Emelie frowned. 

William’s voice was chilly and low. “What you believe isn’t always the truth.
