Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 713

Emelie smiled. "I never said it was you, Mr. Middleton."

Then, her smile faded. "That car was aiming directly at me, but it missed. Immediately after, someone involved me in an old case, labeling me as a suspect and restricting me from leaving Capebatt City.

"These two incidents are clearly targeting me. To say they aren't connected or orchestrated by the same person? I don't believe it."

William listened in silence. He knew that Emelie wouldn't be sharing this with him for no reason. Their relationship wasn't close enough for casual conversations.

Sure enough, Emelie asked, "If I remember correctly, you once asked me if Frankie was dead. Why did you suddenly ask me that?"

This was the real reason why she got in his car and accepted his food. She had a purpose for doing so.

In fact, William had also just been thinking about this.

Emelie waited for a while but William remained silent. A smirk played on her lips. "If it's inconvenient for you to say, just forget that I asked. I won't force you."

With that, she stood up immediately. It was clear she had no intention of wasting another second if she couldn't get the answers that she wanted.

As Emelie reached for the door, William turned, grabbed her coat, and sighed softly. "I didn't say I wouldn't tell you. I was just thinking about how to explain it. Why are you so impatient?"

Emelie paused.

William said, "Sit down. I'll tell you everything."

The luxurious nanny car had ample space and was equipped with amenities like a fridge. Emelie noticed a small wine cabinet by the door with a few bottles inside.

"Mr. Middleton, is your wine drinkable?" she asked.

"You can drink it, but the weather is cold right now. If you're thirsty, you should have some soup instead," William said.

"Alcohol suits this conversation better." Emelie took out a bottle of wine and grabbed two glasses before returning to her seat.
