Chapter 780 It Makes You Look Immature Emelie didn't want to waste ttalking about irrelevant things with William. She turned to Jodie and instructed, "Book us a flight back to Coastalburg immediately." Jodie was already checking the flight options. "Ma'am, the earliest flight to Coastalburg isn't until 9:30 am tomorrow.' It was already past 10 at night. There weren't any more flights at this hour.
Emelie couldn't wait that long. "Is there any way to arrange a private flight?" Jodie shook her head. 'It's not just about the staff being off-duty. In Eprand, private flights are heavily regulated. The earliest we could arrange one would be by tomorrow morning." Emelie shut her eyes, trying to hold back her mounting irritation.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWilliam had been watching her panicking and stepped forward. "Why don't you ask me? I'm right here. I can arrange a private flight. Do you want to ride on my plane?" Emelie's eyes flew open, her gaze fixed on William. "You can leave now?" "Yes," he said.
His short answer was able to make Emelie relax, even though she was still panicking.
Emelie exhaled heavily. "Haven't you seen the news?" William's brow furrowed in confusion. "The evening news? No, I haven't had the chance. I just dropped Patrice off at the Spencer residence and was about to head to my next destination. I haven't had tto check my phone. What's going on?" Dropping Patrice off? Emelie scrutinized him with suspicion. 'Did you send Patrice away last night because you were afraid I was going to go after her?" William smiled. "I didn't think of it that way. With your status, why would you hold it against someone so young? I was simply passing through, as I have other matters to attend to in Eprand." Emelie wasn't that noble. She scoffed. "Patrice is only a few months younger than I am. What do you mean by " someone so young"? Besides, you didn't have much to do in Coastalburg last night, and now you suddenly have urgent business in Eprand. Isn't that a bit too coincidental?' William took a step forward, his eyes gleaming. 'So, you can't forget what happened last night?" His voice was low, as if deliberately seducing her into revisiting those memories.
Emelie did recall the incident, especially the part where she had stepped on his shoulder.
The memory made her skin prickle with goosebumps, and she glared at him. "Which of your eyes sawobsessing over it? William, if you say another word, I swear I'lI..." "You'll hit me?" William's voice was soft. "Since you're angry with me, why are you still rewarding me?" Emelie was rendered speechless by his manic remarks. "William, do you have no sense of shat all?" William shrugged nonchalantly. "I used to be overly concerned about maintaining my dignity, and as a result, I ended up with nothing. Now, I find that being shameless isn't such a bad thing." Emelie didn't know how to rebut him. So, she turned around and walked back into the airport.
Yet, her anger overcher, and she spun back around to confront him. "I've already told you! Where is your plane?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWilliam seemed to like seeing her show genuine emotions, even if it his provocations. He was due to preferred this compared to her insincere smiles. He said, "Let's have a light meal now. Otherwise, when we get back to Coastalburg, you'll be overwhelmed with
work and won't have tto take care of yourself. It would be a shto aggravate your stomach issues after you've finally recovered." Emelie responded curtly. "The food on airplanes is quite good these days. I like it." "There's no need to be so petty. It makes you look immature,' he said.
Emelie snapped, "Who are you calling immature?!"
They had arrived at the VIP lounge.
William opened the the door and said, 'What I meant is, how about I make En.
