Chapter 667 The First I've Loved

The sun had begun to rise, and the fog slowly started to dissipate.

William stared at Emelie attentively.

Emelie said, "He's been the one I've loved for many years. You've known that all along, haven't you? How can we possibly be a fake couple?"

Suddenly, William grabbed her hand that was holding the handkerchief. His expression remained calm, but the strength of his grip continued to increase. This showed that he wasn't as indifferent as he seemed.

Emelie tried to struggle, but she couldn't break free. She decided to stop moving and said softly, "Mr. Middleton, this is quite rude of you."

A storm of emotion raged in William's dark eyes. He gripped her hand so tightly that he left red marks and almost crushed it.

Emelie frowned. In the end, William let go of her hand.

He took the handkerchief, covered his mouth and coughed. Then, he turned his head away and closed his eyes as if he didn't want to see her anymore.

"I'll have someone send the cleaned handkerchief and the completed property transfer contract to you at the Peninsula Hotel tomorrow, Ms. Pierce," he said.

Emelie smiled faintly. "Thank you, Mr. Middleton."

Just as she was about to turn and leave, William suppressed his cough and said in a hoarse voice, "Ms. Pierce, I don't have your contact details yet. Why don't we add each other so we can keep in touch?"

Emelie laughed in surprise. As she took out her phone, she said, "Mr. Middleton, you've gotten pretty polite, haven't you?"
