Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 368

Chapter 368 Undecided 

Entelle was taken aback. Her scattered thoughts instantly coalesced. Sitting up straight at the dining table, she looked at William opposite her

Mr. Middleton, are you mistaken? i didn’t agree to anything last night.” 

William’s sharp gaze tumed toward her, his presence commanding as ever. Didn’t agree? Then, what about the items in the bedroom trash can?” 

Those few items that they had used last night.. 

He was reminding her of what had transpired. Given all that had happened, how could she claim that there was no agreement

Emelie’s expression faltered. She picked up a small piece of cake, nibbling to settle her stomach

Then, she spoke softly, Mr. Middleton, hasn’t it always been this way with us? Things happen, but roles remain distinct. It’s common.” 

In her three years with him, she had never had a

status

Emelie lifted her head, meeting his cold gaze. I haven’t heard of Mr. Middleton granting Daphne any status either. Haven’t between you two?

The microwave beeped as it finished heating. Willliam ignored it 

these been numerous occasions 

Instead, he approached the table, towering over her with a displeased tone. Who else have been with? Give me a list. And who told you about Daphne and me having many instances?” 

Emelie couldn’t confirm the first part. As for the latter…. 

Emelie pursed her lips. No one said it, but you two couldn’t have not done it, right? weren’t you even discussing macnage?” 

William turned his sharp gaze toward her, and his eyes darkened. Emelie lowered her head. She stabbed a strawberry on her cake with her fork 

Suddenly, William spoke, Never” 

The strawberry rolled off the plate untouched

His expression remained impassive. Never, we’re not even in a relationship

Emelle looked up abruptly. She didn’t believe what he said

After all this time, they hadn’t even had feelings for each other for nearly half a year? How could that be true

If he claimed they hadn’t done anything because William respected Daphne’s good upbringingand avoided premarital relations, Emelie reluctantly believed him to some extent

But to suggest they never even had a relationship? How could that be possible

With all his precious protectiveness and declarations of marriage and children with Daphne, Emelie couldn’t believe they hadn’t shared any emotional connection

She couldn’t believe it. She truly couldn’t

She thought willlam was just being evasive. Though she couldn’t figure out why he would be about this, she simply didn’t believe it. If they had no relationship at all, what did all the pain be caused her for Daphne amount to

Emelie felt a pang in her chest. She realized that she had never really let go of that pain, nor forgotten it just brief recollection brought back the ache she felt at the time when she thought about his favoritism toward Daphne, his neglect of her, and the injustice she had suffered 

Emelie extuled heavily. She ate halt the cake, and her hunger diminished. She stood up from the table, latent on finding her phone 

She dressed inappropriately for going out, so lumelie had to call the hotel’s room service to fetch her clothes tor changing. She was ready to leave

past as she spotted her purse on the coffee table and moved to grab it, William hurriedly closed the gap in three quick steps. He wrapped his arms around her waist from behind

you treat 

Herback pressed against his chest before she could tum around, William’s voice was tinged with restrained anger, Leaving? If you are leaving now, will you me like a stranger again the next time we meet

Emelle didn’t respond to his question. He was correct
