Chapter 398 Green–Eyed Monster

After Emelie hung up, she was still leaning against the wall.

Back when she was soaking her legs in the hot spring pool at Lakeside Villa, she had already heard from Elena that Wesley was going to acquire a company back in the country. He was going to use a shell company and move all his business from overseas back here.

She didn’t think too much about it at the time. But after Samuel told her this, it could only mean…

Was he really coming back?

The back of Emelie’s head was also close to the wall as she raised her head, remembering what happened last year on New Year’s Eve.

She had also met Wesley on that New Year’s Eve which made William so obsessed.

Wesley would come back to the country every once in a while, so it wasn’t like she didn’t have a chance to see him at all.

However, she didn’t notice William, who was standing by the room door as she was lost in her thoughts and gazing into the distance.

William looked at how nostalgic Emelie was. At that moment, he really wanted to know what she was thinking about.

However, it wasn’t long before Emelie’s phone rang again. This time, it was Ashley.

Emelie picked it up. “Ashley?”

Ashley said, “Jeremiah and Lindsay contacted me again. They want to have lunch with you.”

Emelie then replied calmly, “I’ll lose my appetite if they’re right in front of me.”

However, she didn’t refuse to see them. “Change it to three in the afternoon.”

Ashley was surprised that she was willing to see them. “You’ve changed your mind.”

Emelie looked at the floor and said, “Ashley, can you please prepare a settlement agreement? Put down 15 million dollars for the amount. If they agree to it, then I’ll agree to a settlement.”
