Chapter 157 Changing Seats

Emelie glanced at William, then thought of Daphne. She wondered if Daphne had already briefed him on everything.

Samuel, looking confused, asked, “What commotion?”

Emelie replied calmly, “I’m not sure.”

“You better not,” William said as he set aside the newspaper. “Why didn’t you pick up when I called you after the meeting yesterday?”

Emelie casually pulled out her phone, pretending to be puzzled. “I don’t remember seeing any missed calls, Mr. Middleton. What time did you call? Let me check.”

She wanted to see if he had the nerve to say he called at 8:00 pm.

William simply looked at her without saying a word.

Sensing the tension, Jayden tried to lighten the mood and changed the subject. “Finally, here comes Ms. May.”

“Hey, but I bought you guys smoothies!” Patricia protested. “Have you heard about that famous smoothie spot from Capebatt City near the airport? I spotted it while passing by and couldn’t resist joining the queue.”

It was clear that Patricia had a thing for red. She looked stunning in her red knitted dress with a V–neck, giving off an air of sophistication and allure. Despite the chilly weather, she seemed fine with just a beige wool coat thrown over it.

Emelie and Samuel moved aside.

Patricia set the smoothie down on the small table and passed cups to everyone except William, saying, “I know you’re not a fan of this, Mr. Middleton, so I didn’t get you one.”
