Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 855

Chapter 855 We Have No Future in This Life, but What About the Next?

To outsiders, this entire fiasco was nothing more than a farce.

But for Beathan, it was a cruel taste of his own medicine. Just like Natalie, he had fallen into a trap-one that he had dug for himself.

He could already foresee how things would unfold from here. His eyes gradually became bloodshot, and he suddenly exploded into maniacal laughter. "What a perfect scheme to ensure my downfall..."

His subordinates were unsettled by his laughter. "What... What scheme? Boss, what are you talking about?"

Beathan took off his glasses. "Natalie sold me out to Emelie long ago. They've been playing me all along."

His subordinates were still confused. "Boss, we just failed to frame Elias for cheating. It's not a big deal. We can come up with a better plan next time."

"There won't be a next time," Beathan said, his tone carrying the weight of finality. "We're done for."

This time, it was truly over.

Without offering any further explanation, Beathan turned and walked up to the second floor. He headed out to the terrace and then reclined in a rocking chair while staring blankly at the sky.

It was all his fault. He had been too impatient.

In his haste to take down Elias, he had arranged for Gusto to meet Elias at the hotel, under the pretense of renewing their contract but with the intention to trap Elias in a scandal.
