Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 684 If It Weren't For You

Emelie ignored him and took out her phone to check the time. Then, she noticed that the battery was low.

As she was about to call for Jodie to bring her a charger, William unplugged his phone and handed her the cord.

Emelie slightly furrowed her brow.

He always knew her needs before she even spoke and that had somehow made her irritated.

Emelie accepted it, planning to ask Jodie for a charger when she returned.

William casually asked, "Hungry? I have some self-heating hot pots in the car."

Emelie was starving. After all, it was already half past seven.

Emelie didn't refuse, and William went downstairs to grab some instant meals from the trunk. He left two boxes for the bodyguards and brought one upstairs.

Emelie smiled, "If it weren't for you, we'd all be lost, Mr. Middleton."

William has grown accustomed to her sarcasm and began going through the flavors in the box. "I remember that you don't like spicy food. How about a tomato-flavored one?"

Emelie brushed his hand aside and simply grabbed a meal. "No need to trouble yourself, Mr. Middleton. I can manage on my own."

She opened the packaging and sauce packets.
