Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

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.

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

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