Chapter 715 The Letter That Won't Be Replied To

Emelie stared out the car window.

White snow had blanketed Capebatt City, covering everything in a thick layer of white, blurring out the road beneath it.

But when winter gave way to spring, and the snow melted, everything would return to how it was before. No one would remember what the road looked like when it was hidden under the snow.

Time was a fascinating thing. As it passed, it seemed that everything could be forgotten.

The traffic light turned green.

Aston waited for Emelie's response during the red light. When she received none, she assumed that Emelie wouldn't reply. She disappointedly sighed and stepped on the gas.

However, Emelie did end up speaking, asking in return, "And who was it that orchestrated my first arrest?

Ashton nearly hit the brakes.

Emelie continued indifferently, "Wasn't it William? He was so desperate to reconcile with me that he first made sure that I'd be arrested, only to swoop in and save me when I was on the brink of a breakdown. "Have you ever heard of the suspension bridge effect? When someone is in a life-threatening situation, they may develop feelings for the one who rescues them. That's how, after that incident, I slowly reconciled with him.

"And why did he go to such lengths to win me back? To get close to the Hoven family and get his hands on the account book. Every step was carefully planned.

"So tell me, Ashton, do you really think I should show him any kindness?"

Ashton was left speechless, and Emelie didn't say anything more after that.

When they arrived at the hotel, Emelie stepped out of the car, circled around to the driver's side, and tapped on the window. "Ms. Jones, show me your payment code."
