Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 3 Dismissal

Unexpectedly, her father fell into a trap that plunged them into a debt of 5 million dollars.

She then fell to the ground, surrounded by motorcycles. She believed her life was over.

It was at that moment a business car arrived, blocking her view.
