Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 635

William froze in his tracks. For a few seconds, his mind went blank until he heard the urgent calls from the doctor from the ward.

"Mr. Middleton Senior! Mr. Middleton Senior!" the doctor yelled.

He closed his eyes briefly, then resumed walking and entered the ward.

The doctor looked at William, his face heavy with sorrow. "Mr. Middleton Senior has... passed away."

As William silently approached Henry, he noticed that Henry's eyes were still open. They were clouded, devoid of any light.

Henry had dedicated most of his life to the Cloudex Corporation, doing everything in his power for its success. Now, his time has come, yet he left the world in distress.

The doctor feared that William might place blame on them and hurriedly explained, "Mr. Middleton Senior started suffering from multiple organ failure yesterday afternoon. We conducted several rounds of resuscitation, but his body was simply too far gone."

William reached out and gently closed Henry's eyelids with his hand.

"I understand," William replied, his voice was hoarse.

The doctor exchanged glances with his colleagues and offered a final condolence. "Please accept our deepest sympathies."

The medical staff then left the room.

Ashton and Fabian entered, waiting for instructions.

William's expression was flat and impassive. "Notify the Middleton family and the shareholders. Have Uncle Gideon and Uncle Edmund handle the funeral arrangements. And direct the PR department to issue a public announcement."

"Yes, sir," Ashton and Fabian both answered.

"Dear! Dear!" Before Vanessa even entered the ward, her mournful cries echoed through the hallway.

William lowered his gaze and exited the ward, uninterested in watching her put on a show.
