Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 786 His Chance With Her For the next week, Emelie stayed in Eprand, focused on managing the Ludy Fun Park incident.

Due to the PR department's effort, and the fact that no fatalities were reported, under their series of measures, they managed to salvage sof the park's reputation.

A week later, when the park reopened. The visitor numbers were down by 40% compared to before the incident. It was considered a significant success.

On the other hand, the Swanson Corporation wasn't as fortunate.

Two more severely injured victims succumbed to their injuries in the hospital. With that, the death toll was raised to six, and a massive online outcry ensued.

This made the Swanson Corporation's stock plummet over two consecutive trading days. The fallout was so severe that they lost major ongoing deals. Even the company's cash flow faltered.

However, that wasn't the worst of it. A government task force was formed to investigate the Swanson Corporation's other tech parks.

The investigation uncovered issues at two more locations, igniting public outrage and suspicion. It also put the Swanson Corporation under intense scrutiny. Every step that they took now becincreasingly difficult. Despite the Swanson Corporation's attempts at damage control, their efforts were in vain. That week felt like they were walking a tightrope for everyone at the Swanson Corporation.

Emelie avoided looking into the Swanson Corporation's situation. However, it had beca hot topic that was impossible to ignore.

While she was getting breakfast from a street vendor, Emelie overheard negative comments about the Swanson Corporation. The owner was cursing the company as he fried sausages for another customer Emelie carried her cottage cheese and sausage back to the car. Finally, she gave in and checked the news on her phone.

The Swanson Corporation downfall didn't happen by chance, someone had been pulling the strings behind the scenes. It wasn't hard to guess who that person might be.

Emelie finished her breakfast in silence.

"Taketo the airport," she said.

Once Emelie finished her work in Eprand, it was tto return to Coastalburg.

As she sat in her business class seat, she rested her head on her hand, and gazed out at the scenery.

Suddenly, someone sat down next to her. She glanced over casually, expecting just another passenger, only to see William.

That bastard. He had been appearing frequently where she was over the past week. He brought food, drinks, clothes, and umbrellas. Each time, he claimed it was a coincidence.

It was as if the city with 16,410 square kilometers was ssmall town. He made it look like running into each other was inevitable.

Emelie couldn't even bother to be annoyed. "Another coincidence?" William chuckled. "Yeah. I suppose it's fate." Emelie had no interest in engaging with him.

As the plane neared Coastalburg, Emelie's mood grew increasingly heavy.

William had hoped to offer Emelie a ride in his car when they landed at the airport. He was hoping for the chance to spend their final private moment together.

Unfortunately, as they exited the terminal, they saw Wesley waiting by his car meant to pick up Emelie. He was dressed in light colors, looking gentle and demure.

"Eme," Wesley greeted her.

A hint of complex emotions flickered across Emelie's expression. Still, she walked over to Wesley.

"Didn't I tell you not to cpickup? We agreed to meet back at the house. The airport is far away," she said.

Wesley took his coat and draped it over her shoulders.

"For all these years, I've always been the one to pick you up. No matter where you went or cfrom. This tis no different. Let's go home," he said softly.

Emelie entered the car with him.

Wesley closed the car door and briefly glanced at William. Then, he gave a polite nod as a gesture of acknowledgement. He circled the car to the other side and drove off, quickly disappearing from William's view.

William pondered for a moment, realizing that Emelie hadn't even glanced his way as she got into the car. He had hoped that Emelie might care a little after spending a week together. However, it seemed he was mistaken. William sighed softly.

Ashton asked, "Mr. Middleton, where to next?" "Let's go to Xanther first," he said.

In the car, Emelie and Wesley rode in silence for a long time.

No matter where Emelie had been traveling In the past, they would at least call once daily. But this time, they hadn't talked at all for an entire week.

Wesley had only learned last night that Emelie was returning to om Coastalburg. When he found out, he cto the airport to pick her up. Wesley broke the silence and asked, "So, these past few days, have you two been spending a lot of ttogether?" Of course, he was asking about William.

Emelie replied, "It's just been a coincidence Wesley asked, "So many coincidences?" Emelie pressed her lips together. "For me, encountering him is a coincidence. Whether he's seekingout on purpose, I don't know.' "But you didn't push him away. He took care of you when you were having a fever," he said.

With Jodie around Emelie, Wesley naturally knew about everything that was going on.

Emelie let out a sigh and retorted sharply, "So, are you getting madh again? Planning to take revenge or cause another explosion somewhere?" X
