Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 648 Waiting for Her All Night

"You mean Ms. Hov-Ms. Pierce?" Ashton was unsure how to address her. "She's staying at the Peninsula Hotel."

William stared into space. She couldn't tell if he was lost in thought or perhaps simply dazed.

After a long pause, he said, "I want to see her."

"Right now?" Ashton thought to herself as she glanced at her watch. It was already half past midnight.

This was hardly an appropriate time for a visit. However, William was already on his feet, heading out the door.

It seemed like his suppressed emotions were growing like wildfire on the night of their long-awaited reunion. He walked quickly, almost hastily, forcing Ashton to jog to keep up with him.

As expected, they didn't get to see Emelie.

Jodie politely said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Middleton. She isn't feeling well and has already gone to bed. It's not convenient for her to meet guests now. If you have any messages for her, please tell me, and I will pass them on to her when she wakes up."
