Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 384

Emelie was stunned for a moment and said softly, "It's all in the past. It's not that I dislike you, it's just that daughters aren't close with their dads when they grow up. It's very common."

It seemed like Ronan didn't hear what she said and continued to mutter, "But don't worry, I won't hurt you again. They're here again, but I swear I'll protect you this time. Even if it costs me my life."

Emelie stopped, feeling that something was off about what he said. She frowned and asked, "What are you talking about, Dad?"

Ronan simply shook his head and said, "It's fine. I'll deal with it."

He would clean things up properly.

Once they reached the end of the lane, the cab was already waiting there.

Ronan lifted her luggage into the trunk.

Emelie remembered something and said, "Dad, while that traditional medicine practitioner treated you, he's a bit strange. I haven't found out anything about his background yet. Don't go to him again if it isn't really necessary."

Emelie got into the cab and it sent her to the railroad station. Then, she boarded the high-speed train that was bound for Weston.

As she sat in her seat, the surrounding silence was deafening. She couldn't calm down at all, so she took out her phone and gave Ashley a WhatsApp call. She wanted to ask if she could legally sue Daphne for what she did.

The result was just as Emelie had expected.

"It's going to be very difficult. You have no proof. It's a difficult case to win, even if the caretaker is willing to be your witness. Your chances are too slim and the court won't side with you."

Which meant that she couldn't do anything to Daphne.

Not to mention that Daphne had already escaped.

Emelie sighed and heard Ashley say, "Stop sighing. I still have some good news for you. I've already collected enough evidence of Elene's wrongdoings. It should be enough to get her convicted."

That was good news indeed.

Emelie massaged the bridge of her nose and smiled. "It's so nice to have a friend who's a professional to work for me even during her holidays. I'll take you out for a meal tomorrow as a reward for working overtime."

"Probably not tomorrow. I just left the hotel and am heading to the airport. One of the pieces of evidence is located in Greenhill City and I have to make sure it sticks."

Emelie looked at the time. It was almost 10 pm, which meant she was rushing for the last flight. "We're not in a rush, so you can take the flight tomorrow, maybe? You're going to arrive in the wee hours and it isn't safe."
