Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 750 Action Over Words

William shot Ashton a look.

Ashton understood William immediately and signaled for everyone to step back. The group retreated to a distance where they couldn't hear the conversation.

William's expression hardened, his thin lips pressing into a cold, tight line. "What kind of illness? Physical or psychological?"
