Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 403 No Precautions Taken

Emelie heard the men’s deep voices around the corner and walked over.

There, she found William and Beathan standing side by side, each smoking a cigarette. Looking at the way they were getting along, they seemed to be acquaintances.

Upon hearing her footsteps, the two men turned to look at her.

Beathan knew that Emelie had come to find William. He nodded politely in greeting before heading inside.

William stubbed out his cigarette and approached her. What are you doing out here?”

Emelie was puzzled. “Do you know Beathan?”

William replied casually, “Do you remember Thomas Collins, the one who played cards with you on the Graham family’s cruise?”

“I remember.”

The four people at the poker table that day included Bryan, the venture capitalist tycoon of the Swanson family in Weston; William, the capital giant of the Middleton family in Capebatt City; Charles, the real estate tycoon of the Davis family in Calmcrest; and the CEO of the tech giant in Placidville from the Collins family… Beathan?

Emelie raised her eyebrows in surprise. Was Beathan Collins from the renowned Collins family in Placidville?

William gently tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. His fingertip brushed against her soft skin as he gazed at her intensely and said, “Beathan is Thomas‘ cousin.”

The pieces in Emelie’s mind clicked into place. “Did you instruct Beathan not to inform the Allen family that Elena might only receive a suspended sentence?”

“That’s why I said that whether you agree to the settlement or not, I can ensure that you’ll walk away unscathed.”
