Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 554 No Divorce

After that day, Emelie seemed to have vanished into thin air. Her phone was unreachable, and she didn’t reply to any messages on WhatsApp.

Ashley had even gone to Eastbay to look for William, but she didn’t see him. Instead, the maids told her that he had been hospitalized due to an illness.

Ashley reported the situation to the police, but they couldn’t provide her with any answers. So, she had to rely on her friends to help her find Emelie.
