NovelEnglishChapter 724 Acting Cute Emelie saw Samuel approaching from the crowd. He must have cto defuse the situation, knowing something was amiss.
They were such rude guests...
She glanced at William, then at Wesley, before raising an eyebrow. "Am I an object? What's this 'his' and ' yours' nonsense? Mr. Cronus, where are your manners and respect?" Wesley was momentarily surprised, then smiled. "You're right. I'm sorry." Emelie wasn't satisfied with just an apology. "Just an apology? That's not enough." The guests were astonished. They watched as this wealthy and influential man, known in Capebatt City as Mr. Cronus of the Filo Group, apologize because of his fiancee's words.
"Then I'll write an apology letter when we reach home. Don't be angry, okay?" Wesley said.

William had heard her phone conversations with Wesley before, but seeing it first hand was more impactful.
He realized, for the first time, that she had never acted this way with him. She had never spoken to him in a flirtatious manner. She had never been this affectionate with him in public. Their past was always kept private.
At that moment, Emelie gave a reluctant hum of agreement.
She withdrew her wrist from Wesley's hand and turned to face William. She said politely, "If you want to dance, Mr. Middleton, you can invite another lady. Or we could dance when the next opportunity arises. My feet are hurting in these high heels, so I can't continue. Please let go." After a few seconds, William finally released her hand.
Emelie had always been emotionally intelligent. She didn't want William and Wesley to continue their confrontation at Melanie's wedding, so she took the initiative to mediate.
Her mediation also served another purpose. It addressed the minor gossip caused by the two men. She could flirt with Wesley. However, with William, she was formal and polite. It was clear who she sided with.
When Samuel arrived, the atmosphere had becrelaxed.
He nodded to William and Emelie, and then said to Wesley, "Mr. Graham, I apologize for the inadequate reception. Please forgive me." Wesley responded with courtesy, "I hope that I haven't caused any trouble for you, Mr. Swanson. After all, I cuninvited." "Not at all. Mr. Graham, you're too polite," Samuel said, signaling the waiters to serve him drinks.
A group of waiters appeared with trays of champagne, red wine, and cocktails.

Guests clinked glasses, offering congratulations. Emelie and Wesley exchanged glances and left the center of the crowd together. Wesley's hand lightly rested on her waist, guiding her through the crowd.
Due to the noise, he bent down and whispered in her ear, "Really not going to dance? This is your favorite song." Emelie had lost interest. "I'm hungry," Wesley said gently, "I'll accompany you to get something to eat." Emelie turned to the side. "When did you return to the country?" "Just arrived. I heard you were here, so I cover," he said.
William watched their retreating figures. Then, he turned around and walked toward a corner of the banquet hall. Wesley and Emelie reached the buffet table together.
Emelie took a plate, and Wesley handed her a tong. "I could have cearlier to celebrate Springfest with you. However, at the last minute, Mom askedto go to the Filo Residence to deal with strouble." Emelie asked with a half-smile while holding the tong, "Aunt Natalia? Or Uncle Cargil?" These two from the Filo family were most likely to cause trouble for Wesley.
Wesley smiled, lifting the lid over the beef ribs. "It wasn't them. It was Uncle Cargil's son, Ferdinand."
He explained, "He's been sent to South Asmela to mine. If he's lucky, he might find rubies that would О complete your collection. You're missing a set of Pigeon's Blood jewelry, aren't you?" Ads by Pubfuture
