Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 306

Chapter 306 Despised 

On the ground? 

Emelle raised her head immediately. 

She didn’t know whether Sofia was being serious or whether she had just made a remark out of anger because she was worried about her kids. 

The living hall became silent. No one spoke. Sofiawas still glaring at Emelie. It was as if everyone was waiting for Emelie to get on the ground. Emelle stood on the thick and soft carpet in her high heels. She felt her legs weaken, and it felt as if she couldn’t keep her balance. Besides that, she felt sick. 

She pursed her lips and wanted to say something. 

At this moment, the crisp and sharp sound of someone putting a cup down on the glass table rang out 

Emelie Instinctively looked in the direction of the sound. It had come from the couch, where William was sitting 

However, before she could see his expression, Elma spoke up. Emelie had trouble focusing and was distracted by her voice. 

“Mrs. Sofia, please calm down. Mr. Middleton, please stand up for Ms. Hoven, 

Then, William said, “Mrs. Matilda, does the Navarro family make people beg for forgiveness before even knowing the truth?” 

William was finally speaking up for Emelle. 

But it was only because Elena had told him to 

Emelle turned around. She didn’t have the desire to look at William. The anticipation that she had felt when she had heard the sound of the glass clinking was ridiculous. 

“Of course not. This matter hasn’t come to light yet why would we do such a thing and humiliate Ms. Hoven?” 

It was only then that Matilda reprimanded Sofiasoftly, “Sofia, you must be tired. You’ve even made those remarks out of anger. You should get some rest upstairs. I’ll take care of this.” 

Then, she added, “Ms. Hoven, please take a seat.” 

In a low voice, Emelie said, “Thank you, Mrs. Matilda.” 

She walked over to the unoccupied couch. Her legs had stiffened and become weak after standing for such a long time. 

After taking two steps, she couldn’t help but fall forward. Thankfully, the couch was right in front of her. So, she managed to steady herself. 

At the same time, William grabbed her. 

The couch that was closest to her was the single–seater couch beside William 

Emelle quickly pulled her hand out of his grasp. She moved so quickly that it seemed as if something would happen if he touched her. His expression became cold instantly. Emelie looked at Marida. She could feel the heat on her eyelids, and her voice was hoarse as she said, “Mrs. Matilda, I’ve told you everything. Ms. Amanda and Mr. Marcus being poisoned has nothing to do with me.” 

– Matilda said, “Ms. Hoven, I’ve listened to your explanation. However, you’re the most suspicious one out of everyone we’ve looked into. 

“My family and Swanson Corporation are both well–respected in Weston. If we take this matter to the police, it’ll be bad for both parties. That’s why we plan to look into it ourselves.” 

Emelle pursed her lips. “Tunderstand” 

“That’s great. I hope you’ll cooperate with us so that we can find out the truth as soon as possible. In that way, our collaboration won’t be affected.” 

That last sentence was a threat 

Emelie held her breath. “How do you want me to cooperate with you?”
