Chapter 69 Who’s In Charge Here

Emelie returned to her desk, where her colleagues gathered around to console her or apologize for believing Cindy’s words too easily.

Emelie reassured them that it was fine.

However, contrary to her typical behavior, Melanie remained alone at her desk.

Looking down, she seemed visibly upset.

But much to her surprise, the footage revealed William with Emelie, the two entering an elevator and heading upstairs to a room.

Melanie couldn’t help but feel like Emelie had betrayed her.

After all, it was Emelie who had brought her into William’s circle, playing the matchmaker between them.

William, of course, saw right through her excuse.

Twirling his pen, he looked at her for a moment before saying, “Going to see a doctor for psychological issues might not be the best solution.

“Actually, I just got invited to a three–day cruise party. Join me, relax, and you’ll probably feel better much
