Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 879

In April, the spring's warmth and beauty made it feel like the best time of year everywhere.

Emelie and Samuel strolled through the manor, the gentle breeze carrying the fragrance of roses. Neither of them had changed out of their wedding attire.

Samuel had suggested for them to change their clothing, but Emelie explained that she needed to move around in her dress and shoes to see if she felt any discomfort.

Since she would be wearing the heavy gown through various ceremonies the next day, discovering any issues at the last minute would leave no time for adjustments and could cause unnecessary discomfort.

Samuel agreed with her reasoning, so they didn't change out of their formal wear.

His leg injury hadn't fully healed, so he was able to walk independently albeit slowly. Fortunately, they weren't in a hurry, so they took their time.

Samuel broke the silence. "Wesley called me the other day and shared some things with me. We talked for over an hour."

Emelie guessed, "He told you about our identities?"

"Yes," Samuel said.

"I guess you were shocked," Emelie replied.

Her tone carried a hint of teasing, as if she wasn't concerned. Samuel glanced at her with a wry smile, unsure how to continue.

Ahead, some household staff were transporting porcelain tableware intended for the wedding banquet.

The tableware from the Bouffier brand in the mid-south of Faldoria had a long history. It was used in royal courts in many countries, including by the late queen of Bredal.

They were beautiful but fragile, so the household staff handled it with extreme care to avoid any damage.

Samuel's thoughts shifted. "After I heard what Wesley said, I can understand why he did what he did."

Emelie turned to him. "Oh?"

He said, "You know, when Mrs. Denning was in charge, she was exceptionally capable and assertive. The Filo family operated almost entirely at her discretion, and no one dared to oppose her. Even when she wanted to pass on her position to her grandson, the Filo family members could only grumble in private."
