Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 758 An Act

Emelie laughed softly as if she had just heard something amusing.

"I've wrongly accused him? Mr. Swanson, when Charles played the recording of him interrogating my mother in the hospital about the account book, you must have heard it too, right? Seeing how he had practically driven my mother to her death, how exactly have I misjudged him?"

Bryan countered her words with his own question. 'Ms. Hoven, did you ever wonder why that recording even exists in the first place?"

Emelie paused. She did not quite understand. "What do you mean?"

Bryan leaned forward with his elbows resting on the table as he continued, "That recording was made with a bug that Charles had planted. Why do you think he bugged Mrs. Hoven's ward?'

A flicker of realization crossed Emelie's eyes.

Bryan pressed on with a third question. "If Charles had complete trust in Mr. Middleton, that he wouldn't protect you or Mrs. Hoven, then he wouldn't need to bug the room. He could simply wait for Mr. Middleton to report the outcome of his questioning. So, why did he secretly bug the room?"
