Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 836

"One bad turn deserves another. By helping Emelie weaken Xanther, I'm basically cutting Beathan down to size. I wanted him to feel the sting of losing everything. Just like I did," Elias said as a hint of sharpness flashed in his eyes.

Ashley mentioned, "But Xanther is under William. With all the issues Xanther's facing, it's dragging down the Cloudex Corporation's stock as well."

"He won't mind," Elias replied without a second thought.

Ashley furrowed her brows, puzzled.

Elias gave a smile. When he noticed that she had eaten more than yesterday, his smile grew even wider.

It seemed that the day's meal hit Ashley on the spot. Maybe the storytelling helped her appetite too. That made Elias determined to work better tomorrow

He served her a spoonful of steamed eggs.

"Why aren't you eating?" Ashley couldn't resist asking.

"I'll take care of whatever's left after you're done," he said.

Elias had indeed changed quite a bit. The prestigious son of the Undvike family was now eating leftovers.

Ashley finished her meal and slipped her phone in her bag. She took out her lipstick to touch up, stood up and headed straight for the door.

Elias quickly turned around and asked, "Honey, where are you going?"

Ashley didn't answer.

Elias shoveled a couple of bites into his mouth and hurried after her. "Where are you going? I'll drive you. I'm your chauffeur now."

Once in the car, Ashley buckled her seatbelt and finally said, "Beathan's place."

Elias immediately turned to face her.

"You're going to see Beathan? No way. I'm not letting that happen," Elias disagreed bluntly.

He had made it clear before that he would never let Beathan see Ashley in that lifetime. Beathan wasn't worthy, and Elias didn't want Ashley to be tainted by Beathan's presence.

Ashley calmly corrected him. "You're the one seeing him."
