Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 749

"Maybe he just didn't find a chance to tell you?" Jodie said. She was equally in the dark.

SHe added, "However, considering that the Filo Group and the Xanther Group have a partnership together, it makes sense for Mr. Graham to visit the Xanther Group while he's in Capebatt City."

"Could you ask them where they are now? I'll head over after changing my clothes too," Emelie asked.

With that, she quickly went upstairs, changed into a new outfit, and applied some light makeup.

When she came back down, she asked, "Did you ask them already?"

Jodie nodded, "Yes, they finished their inspection at the Xanther Group. Now, at Mr. Middleton's invitation, they're heading to the Cloudex Corporation."

Emelie paused for a moment before hastening her pace.

...

Meanwhile, William and Wesley were at the Cloudex Corporation Group.

Both of them were dressed in dashing suits. They walked side by side, each leading their respective teams.

As they strolled, they engaged in conversation, discussing company growth, product strengths and weaknesses, market prospects, and industry trends.

The conversation flowed smoothly, pleasant without any dull moments. Their interactions were harmonious as if they were close partners.

If nobody had mentioned it, no one would have guessed that just a few days ago, these two nearly clashed at the Swanson wedding.

William introduced each department as they passed by the area.

He said, "This is the marketing department. There are not many people here right now, so they must be in a meeting, Mr. Cronus. Otherwise, you could have seen their data analysis skills in action. They're as sharp as any Warren Street analyst."

While Wesley's grandfather was Faldorian, he had a quarter of Glastonian heritage. His light brown eyes reflected the sunlight, looking soft yet cold.

He continued, "She was really busy back then. Even though she held a high position, she was in a foreign country, dealing with an unfamiliar work environment and tasks.

"The subordinates resented her because she came from nowhere, and the directors who knew she was one of my people secretly plotted against her. Everything weighed down on her, leaving her no room to breathe.

"I knew she was struggling, but I pretended not to know since she never told me. After all, she's so stubborn. She wouldn't like it if I tried to protect her like she was a delicate flower in a greenhouse.

"It wasn't until later, when something happened to her, that I realized the stress wasn't just from work. She was in a bad state of mind. I really shouldn't have let her bear it all alone."

William knew Wesley was bringing up Emelie on purpose, but he still asked, "What happened to her?"

"She was sick," Wesley said.
