Chapter 844 Don't Push Your Luck, William

At that moment, Ashley was filled with thoughts of how infuriating Elias was. She wondered how anyone could be so annoying.

He was relentless, impossible to shake off, like moss clinging to a stone. He was like ivy vines crawling up a wall, wrapping around her until she was both angry and helpless.

It was such a coincidence that Emelie was experiencing similar feelings.

"Weren't you the one who said that you'd come to me if you had questions? Yet, you left me in Mercianna," William said.

William seemed unbothered. "I woke up to find out that you'd returned to Cedonia, so I followed you back. They were only minor injuries, so I can recover here just as well."

Emelie nodded nonchalantly. "Well, I wish you a speedy recovery."

Then, she moved to walk past him.
