William ted his gaze, fixing an imposing glare on Lindsey. 

Lindsey’s lace paled, and she fell back into her chat 

soon, she realized how embarrassing it was to be startled by someone younger, and she quickly stood up again, just as she wanted to say something, Jeremiah 

stopped her. 

compared to her, Jeremiah was more composed. Since William hadn’t explicitly committed to protecting Ertelle, there was still room for negotiation 

He attempted to deduse the tension, saying, “William, please accept our apologies. My wife is direct and can be quick–tempered—“: 

william interupted impatiently, “Just get to the point” 

Aftera brief silence, Jeremiah bluntly stated, “Emelie is the culprit. She banned my daughter, and we demand she go to prison!” Itis emphasis was clear in the last.

her porcelain spoon into her bowl with a clatter. 

Upon hearing their conversation, the woman seated at the dining table behind William suddenly 

William tumed around and looked at her briefly. 

“If you ertrain fromsinolvement and interference, both the Alles Group and even the Davis Group will provide robust support in the future,” Jeremiah said. 

Then, he pulled out a contract and continued, “This grants mining rights in southern mine owned by the Allen family. I know it may not hold great monetary value for you, but it’s a gesture of goodwill. Take it, and you can use it to purchase a home befitting someone like you.” 

The Allen family truly spaced no expense. A property rating for William in the prime Capebatt City would cost at least 50 million dollars 

It appeared they were determined to go to great lengths to ensure Emelie ended up behind bars. 

They sat in a quiet comer with few other guests around. Yet, this tranquility lasted only half a minute before William pushed the contract back 

with a casual, inmate arrogance, he said, “You got one thing right that amount of money is nothing to me.” 

Jeremiah’s expression darkened. “You- 

Leaning back in his chair, William’s gaze tumed cold. “If ere’s one thing I don’t tolerate, it’s threats” 

Jeremiah responded in a low vence, “If that’s the case, don’t blame us for seeking better alliances.” 

William chuckled. “If you insist on finding a new backing, that’s your choice.” 

Though Jeremiah was furious, he dared not say more. William signaled them to leave. “Since you’re done talking, aren’t you leaving?” 

Jeremiah and Lindsey stormed off. Ashton quickly approached William “Mr. Middleton, I can’t believe they dated…” 

William raised a hand to silence her and turned to the woman with her back to him. He reached out and tugged her ponytail gently. “If you bend any lower, you’ll be rating from the bowl.” 

Ashton was taken aback when she realized it was Emelie 

Emelie looked embarrassed. 

Williamasked with a hint of amusement. “Aren’t you going to work? 

“T–I was just having breakfast. You know I always eat brakes…” Emelle stammered, William noticed her capil blinking, which was a telltale sign whenever she 

Emelse wished she could disappear into thin air when shew William’s amused expression. She hastily grabbed a napkin and mumbled, “I’m done. I’ll leave now.” William smirked. It was obvious she was afraid he might agree to Jerah and Lindsey’s demands, so she had come to evesdoop. 

Without calling her out, William stood up. “I’ll give you a tide.” 

“No need, I can take the subway.” 

“Drive the car over, William instructed Ashton, who nodded with a smile. 

Emelie felt Ashton’s smile was directed at her. 

She had originally come for brealdast without expecting them to discuss besness at the buffet restaurant. So, she had coincidentally chosen to sit at the table behind him. 

Though there wasn’t a rule against it, she felt that explaining herself would come off as maling excuses. 

She never expected the Allen family to offer such a hetty deal, nor did she anticipate William’s outright refusal. 

Even though William didn’t need the money, it was still 50 milion dollars. Clearly, if he just ignored her situation, he would net a cool 50 million dollars without Bltingatinger 

Yet, he actually refused such a good deal 

Emelie couldn’t help but glance at William beside her. “They said you’re not the only wit of the Middleton family anymore. What does that mean?” 

William asked. “Aar you wonted about me? 

Emele awkwardly looked away. “I’m just curious.” 

Williamsaid, “You’re rulous because you care. If you don’t care, why are you curious?” 

Kellel like whatever the cold now would be wrong 

William’s tone was gentle, like a spring breeze melting winter snow. “You heard it all. I didn’t agree to their terms. I’m still on your side
