daughter, ban’t she? You purpoly Ind me on to make me believe she was William’s partner “mat the truth is, she’s your daughter with Mr. Middleton, right? She’s about a year or two older than William, which is why Mr. Middleton is afraid to let her into the family.”
If they were to acknowledge mia publicly, Henry would have to admit to having an affair during his marriage.
Henry wouldn’t allow that to come to light and be made public in consideration of the Middleton family’s name, Cloudex Corporation, and his own reputation
Moreover, he wouldn’t want to ruin his relationship with William He’d never cross William’s bottom line.
Elle added, “You were unhappy seeing your daughter left out, so you spent years manipulating their relationship You tried to get Mr. Middleton to accept your daughter into the Middleton Lady By then, she can fight or the Middleton family’s inheritance”
Vanessa’s gentle and loving facade crumbled,
Suddenly, a man’s mocking volce broke the silence. “me, you’re being too straightforward. How do you expect Mrs. Middleton to respond?
Emelle turned around to see William clad in black. He looked dillerent from his usual sell
He more black suit and the with no accessories–no cufflinks, depin, not even watch. It was his way of showing respect at the funeral.
Willam extended his hand. “Comelére.”
Emelie walked over to Wilban without lending another glance at Vanessa
He took her hand and asked, “join me for a prayer to Dad?”
Headed to Donan as “Dad“.
Emele pursed her lips and nodded
They walked together toward Banan’s tombstone.
Emelle took some flowers and handed them to William. He slowly knelt down to place the owers in front of the grave

As the sun went down, the cemetery grew dim, and it was time for them to head back.
ble took one last look at Ronan and left with Willam
He held her hand, idly playing with her Gegersas hesaid, “thought you were to overwhelmed to think clearly”
The cemetery was bercaced, with rows of tombstones on each level. They slowly walked down the steps side by side.
“Well, you thought wrong. If there were things she didn’t want me to know, she should’ve kept them well hidden. I’m not going to play dumb for anyone,” Emelie said
Willam tightened his gripon her hand and asked calmly, “How did you figure that out?”
“I found a few loose threads and everything made sense,” she replied.
Emelie had als viewed Vanessa positively and never considered her in a negative light.
But when William told her that Vanessa wasn’t as she seemed, Emelie changed her view other. She recalled past events and finally caught on to everything
Emelie had always suspected that Xenia was Wan ca’s daughter. However, she chose to believe that Xenia was having a relationship with William instead.
Since Xenia wasn’t with William, the truth had to be Emelie’s other guess. Emelie had abeys been sharp
They walked over to the parking area. Since the cemetery had a lot of slopes, William brought an SUV instead of his sedan.
The SUV was a sportback mode with a large and all body, looking like a beast lorking in the night.
Will lowered his head to look at tumitic “Have you sent in the resignation letter to Bryn
No. Took a leve on the Ninth day and then abeseavement leave. Mr. Swanson has been lenient. He’s letting me take time off until next week,” Emelie said.
Wilumchuckled and opened the passenger door.

Emelie felt resigned to his jealousy and glanced at him. “Maybe it’s because made some deals with the Allen family, and he got enough out of it. So now he decided to cut me some
“I could be even more lenient with you,” he said.
William scooped her up under her arms and lifted her into the SUV like child. He then placed his hands on the seat to trap her, looking at her deeply
“I don’t agree with living apart right after getting married,” he said.
Was she supposed to quit her job just because he didn’t agree?
Emelie said, “Then you should ghee up your position at cloudes Corporation and come with me to Weston
Emelle was certainly bold.
Claudex Corporation was led in the billions, and William bed the second–highest post in the company. Was she asking him to quit just like that? Willamoked at her, and Emelie this poe with a calm expression.
He might lover high–ranking position, but why should she quit her job just to bulfill what he wants? whoever suggested it should take action.

Emelie knew he was joking. Despite that, a genuine smile appeared on her face for the first time in days.
She tried to push him away as she said, “Yeah, right”
William, however, pulled her closer by the waist, whispering softly, “You still owe me something from our wedding night.”
