Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 660

Emelie was momentarily stunned by the touch of Wesley's soft, cool lips.

Although they were engaged, he rarely showed such affectionate gestures. Still, she did not pull her hand away.

Wesley sighed and said softly, "If you want to buy it, then go ahead and buy it."

Emelie was not pleased even after hearing that.

"You oppose me without giving a reason and then agree without telling me why." She pulled her hand away and tapped his forehead. "Since when have you been like a child, making unreasonable demands?"

Wesley looked up at her with his brown eyes warmer than the sun in Mercianna. "From the moment you arrived, I've agreed with everything you've wanted."

Emelie remained frowning.

She had come to understand why he had been against her buying the Pierce Residence. Even though he agreed now, she still did not know the reasons for his initial opposition.

Wesley thought the topic was closed. He stood up, took her hand, and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

Emelie replied, "I had some on the plane."

"Have some more with me. Since you're here, stay for two days before going back. There's no rush in Capebatt City, is there?"

"Okay."

Meanwhile, Jodie received a phone call from Ashton. "Ms. Noble, is Ms. Pierce free tonight? Mr. Middleton would like to take her to dinner."

Jodie glanced toward the restaurant. "I'm sorry, but Ms. Pierce is busy. She's not in Capebatt City at the moment and won't be back for a few days."

Ashton pursed her lips. "Very well. Then, we won't disturb her."

Half an hour later, Ashton entered the CEO's office with tea and noticed a small cake on William's desk.

William seemed to be in a good mood that day. It was the first time in half a month since Henry's death that he had seemed cheerful.

Sipping his tea, he asked Ashton, "Is it pretty?"

The cake was small but delicate, with a tiny card that read, "Happy Birthday, Emelie Hoven".

"It's lovely. But Mr. Middleton, Ms. Hoven isn't in Capebatt City at the moment," Ashton said hesitantly.

William looked up. "Where did she go?"

Ashton replied slowly, "I did a check on her whereabouts. She flew to Mercianna last night and went to the Denning residence."
