Chapter 864 One More Time

Emelie responded with cool detachment, "I'll have someone send the wedding invitation to your place. You're welcome to come, Mr. Middleton."

William's anger flared, his voice dropping to a growl as he said, "Emelie."

She looked up. "At this point, the wedding can't be canceled. Do you think this is just a game? This is the Filo family's wedding. Do you need a refresher on the Filo family's standing in Faldoria?"

"No need, I know," William replied sharply. Jayden had made that crystal clear.

Emelie realized that there was no use in continuing the pointless back-and-forth, so she turned her attention back to her meal and resumed eating.

Emelie frowned. The anger she had managed to tamp down after last night anger so fierce it felt like it could rip apart the absurd world around her began to simmer again under William's relentless questioning.

She looked up at him, confusion clear in her eyes. "I don't understand you, William. I really don't. Why do you keep asking questions when you never seem satisfied with my answers?"
