Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 289

Chapter 289 Hand–Written Love Letter 

“You keep looking around. What are you looking for?” Charles suddenly asked. He had noticed Emelle was distracted. 

Emelle retracted her attention and said, “It’s nothing.” 

Charles picked up a cocktail from the table and gave it to her. “If you’re looking for Mr. Middleton, he’ll definitely be here tonight.” 

“Mr. Swanson asked me to deliver his regards to Mrs. Matilda, so I’m looking for her,” Emelle said calmly and then refused the cocktail. “Don’t worry about me.” 

Charles sighed as it he was hurt. “Why are you refusing a drink from me? Am 1 so unsuited to be the right man for you? Am I not handsome enough? Is it because I haven’t put in enough effort to court you?” 

“While we’re listing things we don’t understand, allow me. Why are you suddenly so interested in me?” 

Charles replied, “That’s why you shouldn’t have thrown away the flowers thought you. I personally wrote letters to you. If you read them, you’d know why I like you.” 

Emelia paused for a moment and turned to look at him. 

Charles was quite handsome. He had almond–shaped eyes, a tall nose, and an ever–present smile. He sported a tall, and he looked quite dashing in a suit. 

Even then, he still gave her a bad impression. 

The type of impression belonging to someone who flinted around. 

A man like that would be very popular in entertainment establishments like discos and bars, He was handsome and rich, so if someone were to even share his bed for one night, let alone a glass, they would consider themselves quite lucky. 

However, the were to try to flirt somewhere else, most, if not all women, would avoid him completely. 

He looked like the sort of flirt that toyed with a woman‘ 

Emelie then said, “There was no letter in the bouquet.” 

When she was disposing of the flowers, she had been worried that he had hidden something precious in the bouquet and he would ask her to pay him back if it was valuable. That was why before she threw them away, she gave them a good once–over. That was why she was very sure that there was nothing in them. 

“Maybe I forgot to put them inside,” Charles said with a smile. “But I’ll put it into the bouquet tomorrow, so remember to keep it.” 

Right there. It was like second nature to this man. Lying was so easy for him 

Emelie didn’t respond. He probably had nothing to do, so out of boredom he was trying to spend his time with her. If she refused him too strongly, it might awaken his desire to conquer her that was so common in men e him who were used to having praise heaped on them He wouldn’t let her go if that happened. 

If it got too far, she might have to turn to William. 

That was why she would rather just put him aside. Once he had been ignored a few times and realised how boring she could be, he would eventually stop. 

Emelie grabbed a cocktail herself and took a sip. From the corner of her eye, she saw William enter the banquet hall 

She really wasn’t trying to notice him. 

The reason that she even saw him come in was because, no matter where he was, he would always be the most eye–catching man 

He was wearing a three–piece suit consisting of a jackost, vest, and shirt. The fabric was thick and of good quality material, but it didn’t make him look bulky or old–fashioned Instead, it accomplished the feat of emphasizing his aloof temperament to the fullest, 

The moment he entered the banquet hall, he laid his eyes on no one, If others did this, it would be seen as arrogance. But it was only natural for him to be of such pride thanks to 

his status. 

William had come, as expected. 

However, he was there with a partner. That was what surprised Elie 

It wasn’t Daphne. It was Elena 

Charles opted to say at this moment, “The reason I know that he was definitelycoming is because Elena told me that she would be attending with him.” 

Emelie then replied, “I set.” 

She thought to herself that everyone who was anyone already gossiped and reported to the tabloids when he came to parties with Daphne. So, why did he not take Daphne this time but Elena instead? 

Charles managed to satisfy her curiosity at this time. “Elena has accepted Mr. Middleton’s invitation and joined Clouder Corporation. She’s currently in charge of a project in Cloudex Corporation.” 

Emelie politely responded. “She’s a great woman. 

Charles looked at her with mixed emotions at how she was handling it so well. “Weren’t you looking for him? I’ll take you over there so you can greet him.” 

Emelle didn’t even respond but Charles had already walked her over, cupping her small waist without waiting for her permission. With a smile, he called out, “Mr. Middleton.” Willam’s eyes fell on Emelle. When he saw Charles‘ hand on her waist, he said in a cold tone, “Mr. Davis.” 

Emelie had pulled her wits together. With a natural expression, she greeted him. “Mr. Middleton” 

William Inked at her for three seconds without a change in his expression. He simply raised his eyebrow and asked, “Aren’t you working for Swanson Corporation now? Why are you will Mr. Davis?You found yourself another boss?” 

Chapter 290 Good Fortune Ahead 

Emelle explained without showing weakness, “Mr. Swans was needed elsewhere urgently and appointed me to represent Swanson Corporation to congratulate Mrs. Matilda for having beins in her family Mr. Davis and I just happened to take the same route” 

“Then you’re still with Swanson Corporation.” William’s attode was lukewarm at most. He had a glass of red wine in his hand and swirled it lightly, making the liquid in the glass crash like waves in the glass. His lace was sold 

Tomelie’s heart also thumped like the red wine, as it also being swirled in the cage of his hamil. 

This was the first came they had seen each other since the truth had come out 

How would William deal with the person who had openly tricked him? 

Emelie felt that she wouldn’t be suprised if he were to use the simplest and most brutall way to publicly humiliate her. Likely by splashing her face with wi 

William did indeed extend his hand forward to her while holding the glass, but he didn’t throw it at her. It only tilted slightly in her direction. “Then I wish you good fortune ahrad at Swanson Corporation.” 

Emelie’s eyes slightly glittered with hope 

Was he..congratulating her? 

After a moment of silence, Emelle said, “Thank you, Mr. Middleton” 

The two of them clinked their glasses despite the thoughts that aged in their minds 

Emelie had only wanted to take a sip, but when she saw that william had downed it all at once, he had no choice but to finish it. 

“oh, honey. Don’t drink too much on an empty stomach. It’s not healthy.” 

Emelie didn’t expect Charles to suddenly say something. She was stunned for a moment and he grabbed her wine glass. There was still a mouthful left in the glass and be finished 

Emelie looked at him as if she had seen a ghost she almost blurted out, “Are you crazy?” 

William also narrowed his eyes. 

Elena was shocked. “My dear cousin, are you and Ms. Howen.. 

Charles put the glass on a tray held by a passing walter and said with a smile, “I’m sorry if you find that funny. I’ve been trying to court Ms. Hoven lately, so I need to show how 

Court? it was impossible to tell what William was feeling. “Really?” 

Charles then asked as if they both had a mutual understanding of the situation, “You don’t mind, do you?* 

Emelie used to be William’s partner. Now, he wanted to pursue ber, which was why he was being “polite” by asking her ex–partner if he minded it 

William’s was alot as he said, “Eryone has the right to court someone else. As long as Ms. Hoven is consenting, I don’t see why should care” 

He was so understanding that he seemed possessed. Despite being near him for so many years, even Emelle couldn’t understand or see through the trick he was playing.
