Chapter 712 The Worthless Mr. Middleton

William had brought two cars. One was a nanny car, and the other was a sedan. William told Patrice to go to the sedan first.

Patrice used to think that William was too aloof to ever get married. Now, she thought that William was too humble and accommodating, which might also leave him single.

"Patrice," William called out in a deep voice.

Patrice snapped back and said, "Look at how weak you are."

Then, she stomped off to the sedan.

William and Emelie were left alone to board the nanny car.

Patrice sat in the backseat of the sedan. Her arms were crossed, and she had a furious expression.

Ashton tried to soothe her. "Ms. Wade, please don't be angry with Ms. Pierce."

Patrice paused and then sighed. "I'm not really mad at Emelie. It's just that I can't stand how William has been neglecting his own health. It was just a bail situation. He didn't need to come himself. I could have handled it.

"Showing up at the police station with the Middleton family name would've given us enough clout. He didn't need to personally brave the snowstorm to be here."

What bothered her more was that Emelie didn't even appreciate William's effort, which Patrice found unbearable.
