Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 39 The New Secretary

Troy had tried all manner of ways after his birthday party to ask Emelie out or Invite her to dinner, only for her to refuse every single time.

In the end. Troy knew Emelie was set on her decision and gave up on her. He was a playboy, after all, and it was no fun being given the cold shoulder so many times.

When Emelie went shopping for groceries the other day, she happened to see Troy out with an influencer. Troy pretended not to see Emelie and got into the influencer’s car. Just like that, Emelie was no longer in contact with Troy.

Without Troy, Emelie grew more distant from William’s circle and naturally did not know what transpired.

Mona sat on Emelie’s dressing table and said, “One of my colleagues hang out with those people often and heard someone talking about how Mr. Middleton Senior had secretly sent Daphne away because he didn’t like her.

“He wouldn’t even tell William where she was. Consequently, William’s been really grumpy.”

Emelie had no idea this had happened. After a long while, she replied, “Is that so?”

Honestly, it wasn’t too surprising.

Henry was still influential and powerful enough. William must’ve crossed his line the other day when he said he’d marry Daphne, so Henry took drastic measures.

“There’s more! Guess what? William hired a new secretary afterward. She’s a fresh graduate and is even a ballet dancer. They go everywhere together, just like how William did with Daphne,” Mona said as she

shook her head.

She continued, “I think William’s doing this just to piss off his father. A sort of “You can try sending Daphne away all you like, but I can always find someone like her to stay by my side. You know, the fresh graduates are everywhere nowadays attitude.”

“What William does has nothing to do
