william, despite Emelie's resistance, held her close, his face buried in her neck.
"Let's build a good life together. Angel, from today onward, let's be happy. I promise I won't harm your mother. Both of you will be safe. Trust me, just one more time,” he said.

"No," she said, her voice resolute.
The next morning, Ashley had just arrived at her law firm when her phone buzzed.
It was Mona. "Ashley, did you say that you saw Emelie at the hospital yesterday?"! "Yes, she was with Mr. Middleton," Ashley said as she made her way to her office.
Mona's voice dropped to a whisper, as if she was sharing a secret. "Listen, I did overtat the office yesterday. It was too late, so I didn't go home. When I finally did this morning, I found my place had been broken into!!" Ashley's brow furrowed. "What?" e just here to collect evidence. But whoever it was, they Mona felt lingering fear as she recounted the events. "Someone ransacked my apartment. I called the police, and they were j were smart. They had cut the wires to the surveillance cameras." "Did anything get stolen?" Ashley asked "I don't think so. My gut tellsthey were after something specific.

It was just a hunch, but with Emelie unreachable, Ashley was the only one Mona could turn to. "Maybe William's keeping her prisoner? That would explain why she's not answering her phone. The person who trashed my place could be working for him." Ashley put her hag down, took her water cup, and walked to the water dispenser. Her expression turned grim as she said, "It's possible.

Mona said.
Ashley thought about this for a moment before turning and leaning against the cabinet. “Since you were working late yesterday, take the day oft. Cto the law firm, and we'll file a report together." As a lawyer, she had connections in the police. Ashley lanew what to say to get the authorities to take action against the only heir of the most powerful family in Capebatt City.
Mona agreed without hesitation.
She halled a cab to Starlight Law Firm. When she arrived, Ashley was just hanging up the phone. "The police agreed to send officers to check out Eastbay," Ashley said.
"Let's go together!" Mona said.

Ashley looked up to see Beathan clad in a sharp suit. She didn't want to talk to him, so she just unlocked the car door and gestured for Mona to get in.
Beathan reached out and blocked the car door. "Ashley, I need to talk to you"
Ashley raised the phone in her hand. "I've called the police twice today! Are you looking to make it three times, Mr. Collins?" Beathan stared at her, his grip on the car door not loosening
