Chapter 35 Lover
Everyone immediately looked at Emelie.
Emelie stood there with a blank expression, like some frozen statue.
Mikhail Spencer and his wife, Linda Grabel, were actually quite fond of Emelie, especially after seeing how capable and sociable she’d been tonight. They knew Troy was not cut out for managing a business, so they had hoped to find a woman capable of doing so for him.
Emelie’s lack of wealth of influence was actually advantageous to them, as it meant they could easily manipulate and control her. They were concerned that if Troy’s wife came from a wealthy or influential family, she might divert the company’s profits to her own family.
