Winning Her Heart Back
Chapter 483 Her Feelings For Him
âTam going to Capebatt City to see William. He wasnâtı dly involved in that matter, and weâre still mantled âEmelie tried to explain
However, Wesley interrupted her. âYou went to the city hall. Do you not know whether youâve gotten your marriage certificate or not?â
âWait, wasnât it done? With Willamâs attitude, I assumed it was settledâ Emelle ponised briefly and added, âEven if it wasnât, I still have to talk to him in person. What happened was Henryâs doing, not his. Phis, my mother is still in Capebatt city. I canât just leave her
Wesley looked at her with a tinge of anger.
Willianâs tone turned harsh whenever he mentioned Wesley Similarly, Wesleyâs nice took on a cool and sharp edge when he spoke of William,
âAnd Henryâs actions have nothing to do with him? Has William not enjoyed the Middleton familyâs perwer and wealth? He has. And thatâs enough to connect him to the matter, Wesley sald
Emelie felt a mix of agreement and defiance. âItâs not like he can choose his family. Iâve been his secretary for years. He wasnât involved in any affairs related to the Xander Groop Iâm certain he didnât know about this. Ignorance isnât a crimeâ
Wesley tilted her chin up, his touch was cool and faintly scented with pine. âKnowing your true lineage and the Middleton familyâs wrongdoings towards the Perce family, canı you honestly be with him in good conscience?â
Emelie was at a loss for words.
Her heart felt heavy, and she was unsure of how to reply, wanting to avoid Wesleyâs hand.
A hint of emotion flickered across Wesleyâs gaze. He grasped Emelieâs chin, bent down, and kissed on her lips
Emelieâs eyes widened in shock, and she swiftly pushed him away
Initially, she sat on the bed. Afterwards, she rolled to the side to draw some distance between them
âWesley!â she yelled.
Wesley remained stooped down. His collars were open, revealing his lean neckline as his Adamâs apple moved subtly.
He looked at Emelie, slightly narrowing his eyes, a dangerous allure flickered in his gaze
Last night, Wesley made some wine. He added orange to it to prevent intoxication, but even after Emelie drank it, a subtle haze lingered in her mind.
Much like the mulled wine he made, he was also the type of charmingness that hid danger beneath its surface.
âHave you really fallen for him? Wesley asked.
Emelie was aware that Wesley was testing her, and a surge of anger welled up within her
Who was he to do that?
âI told you long ago, I stopped waiting for you! We were over when you lett ten years ago!â she said.
âSo you chose William? I know you like him. But do you know how much heâs manipulated you? Wesley clenched his jaw night.
âHow has he manipulated me?â she questioned him
Wesley deepened his voice âWith that personality of yours, would you have gone back to him if it werenât for his schemes? Would you have married hum?
Emelle was about to rebuke when Wesley cut her off, delivering his verdict, âYouâve been in his trap all along!!
Wesley was reluctant to listen to her affairs with another man. As he turned to leave, he passed at the door. âIâm not going to Limia for myselt. Iâm taking you to see s Someone?
âWho?â Emelie asked.
Wesley didnât answer her question directly. âYouâll finally understand Williamâs tricks when you meet her. Get some sleep
He then switched the light off on his way out, and the room plunged into darkness.
sat on her bed alone, listening to the sound of the waves crashing against the ship.
