Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 820 I Still Have William

When they first laid out their plan, Wesley agreed to let Emelie handle almost everything. However, there were two things that they disagreed on.

One was Emelie's idea to use medication to make herself appear gravely ill.

Wesley didn't agree with her harming her own body. However, Emelie had always believed that she had to pay the price to obtain what she wanted.

I could pay him off too, make him give false evidence.
