Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 629

It was Jodie.

Why was she here?

The vague suspicion William initially had grew stronger, and his Adam's apple bobbed beneath his turtleneck. His eyes darkened as he walked forward without hesitation, determined to get to the bottom of it.

However, a staff member stopped him when he reached the corridor.

The staff member apologized in Faldorian, "I'm sorry, sir, but this area is the young lady's dressing room and is off-limits. I hope you understand."

William stared at Jodie until she disappeared around the corner.

His voice was low and tense. "Why is that woman permitted to enter then?"

The staff member glanced over. "You mean Ms. Noble? As the young lady's assistant, she naturally has access."

The young lady's assistant?

William's expression darkened further. "Why did your young lady hire a Cedonian assistant? Does she speak Cedonian?"

The staff member smiled. "You may not know, but our young lady is actually Cedonian."

William's eyes grew more intense with each similarity. "What is your young lady's name?"

"Didn't you receive the invitation? Our young lady's name, Themis, is on there," the staff member replied.

"I mean her Cedonian name!" William snapped, scaring the staff member. "She—"

"It appears you share my suspicions, Mr. Middleton," Charles interrupted the staff member as he arrived behind them.

William's expression was cold. "What do you suspect, Mr. Davis?"
