Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 11 Disloyalty

Emelle parked and walked up to him. “Mr. Middleton”

The dim streetlight on the path faintly outlined William’s stern expression. He didn’t look at Emelie, the tip of his cigarette flickering in the dark.

Emelle sighed Inwardly, glanced around, and noticed a 24–hour convenience store nearby.

She headed to the store, picked up a chicken sandwich, and made her way back.

“You barely ate anything tonight. Have something to feed your stomach, so you don’t get a stomachache again.”

William glanced at her and took the sandwich.

Emelie spoke in a low voice, “Even if you’re dissatisfied with what Mr. Middleton Senior said, you shouldn’t have talked back to him in such a manner. He’s prone to high blood pressure and was even hospitalized at the end of last year…”

Suddenly, William let out a cold laugh and threw away the sandwich.

He swiftly grabbed Emelie, opened the car door, and pressed her into the back seat!

His movements were seamless, leaving Emelic feeling like the world is spinning around her.

Her nerves exploded, and she blocked William. “Mr. Middleton! Not here, please!”

He restrained her hands above her head, his tone devoid of any warmth. He chillingly said, “Even Ms. Hoven has learned to say no? I thought you were everyone’s favorite.”

Trapped in the cramped space of the back seat, his presence was overwhelming.

Emelie paused before asking the question burning inside her, “Who claims I’m everyone’s favorite? Clearly, Mr. Middleton, you aren’t fond of me… But what about Daphne? Do your feelings for her run deep. or are they merely passing fancy?”
