Chapter 383 Worthy of Being Comforted

Emelle immediately got out of William’s embrace. She glanced d

d down the staircase and asked in a whisper, “It’s the middle of the day. How did you get in here!

William’s eyes looked down a little and asked, “Are you trying to say that I should have come at night?”

Emelie didn’t want to satisfy his humor and cut himoti. “I’ve reserved a high–speed rail ticket heading back to Westontonight. I’m packing and you’re in my way.

“Bryan hasn’t told you to go back to work yet, correct?” william sat down and grabbed her hand. “Stay for a few more days.”

Emelie said, “Even if I don’t have to go back to work, please get out of my sight.”

Behind William was the porch’s window. Itis figure was illuminated by the light streaming from behind him, and he didn’t feel as invasive any. He raised his head and spoke in a softerion, “This is the last time. You don’t have to worry about her ever again.”

By “her“, he meant Daphne.

Emelle knew he was comforting her.

She never thought that she deserved to be comforted.

Compared to everything that had happened in the past, he was really treating her much better.

He helped her, accompanied her, and protected her. It was as if he really liked her. However, despite how well he treated her, she couldn’t accept his plea to give bis another chance“.

Why?

That was because everything that had happened in the past continued to haunt her. Every time she fell deeper in love with him, her past would remind her of the price of falling in love by causing her heartache.

How William protected Daphne this time immediately made her relive the nightmares of the past, and she could hardly bear the pain

Emelie then asked, “can you guarantee you won’t appear in front of me again

William caught her wrist tightly, his eyes deep. “Most you put it that way?–

“It’s just a few words. If you think that’s too much, why don’t you wear my shoes and think about what Daphne did? I’m not even trying to be harsh,” Emelle said with indifferent smile and pulled her hand away.

shouldn’t have said that. It we’re switching positions, you shouldn’t be in my shoes. You should be in Daphne’s shoes”

William frowned. “You don’t want to be with me anymore because of this?”

Emelie then said, “Wrong. I have never liked you since the very beginning.”

williamchuckled, but it was less than genine. “Was I just a friend with benefits?

““Well, you did treat to as one for three years. Meanwhile, I’ve only used you three times That’s far less comparatively. Not to mention you’re the one that started it every time, not me.”

Emelie paused before emphasizing it once more. “Your

started it every time after we separated.”

In the end, William left,

The mancared for nothing when he was having a temper. He had already gone downstairs before she could even distract the housekeeper

just as she thought, he ran into the housekeeper almost immediately. She was in shock and asked, “Who are you?“!

Emelie quicldy went downstairs and saw William ignoring the housekeeper. She let out a sigh and said, “He’s a friend. I brought him hese just now.”

“When? Why didn’t I see him earlier?”

You were in the kitchen, so you missed him.”

“I see. Your boyfriend? Up into the artic?” the housekeeper asked curiously

Emelie said, “He’s just a friend. He’ll be leaving after awhile. Don’t make things up and tell my parents.“

The housekeeper gave her an understanding smile and said, “understand.”

Emelie wasn’t in the mood to think about what she was thinking.

Meanwhile, Greta was feeling machbetter after a short nap. She then prepared to make a big batch of jelly so Emelie could bring it back to Weston and put it in the hidge. She could eat the jelly whenever she wanted.

Oneta did it like she did it in the past. She grabbed a stool and sat by the door, teaching her how to make the jelly step–by–step as she prepared the ingredients.

*I’m not going to learn this because all I need is you. You’re going to make jelly for me forever,” Emelie said as she moved her chair closer to dieta. She then held teta by heran and rested her head on her shoulder.

She listened to her mother’s gentle voice as the night wind blew, Emelie couldn’t help but sniff and closed her eyes to keep the tears from flowing

“Moin, you have to stay with metareve,” shemumbled.

While she always felt that she had no one to depend on, she had a place to retum to as long as her mother was around. She had a place to stumto when the was

ther mother was gone, then she really had on place to go.

Chapter 383 Worthy of Being Converted

2/2

Ronan only came home when it was almost time for dinner. He was very quiet and didn’t touch most of the things in his place.

He only approached Emelie from behind when she was at the door with her luggage, ready to leave. He took her luggage from her and said, “Let’s go. You can walk In front of me.”

“I’ll be fine on my own. The driver is just waiting by the entrance.” Emelle was worried that he would stumble and fall because of his leg and it was already dark.

“It’s fine. I’ll give you a hand,” Roman said and led the way, leaving Envelle with little choice but to follow him.

The path was only about 30 feet long. Ronan walked very slowly while Emelle used the flash light on her phone to light up the rough surface.

Suddenly, he said, “Emelle, 1 know you’re not close to me because of what happened all those years ago. However, I’m still very happy that you’re willing to return to our home.“!
