Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie and William) novel Chapter 600

After leaving Pearl Bay, Elias first went to visit William at the hospital.

Although William's small lung tumor had spread slightly, it wasn't at a stage that required surgery yet. For now, it was just a matter of using medication and monitoring the situation. They had to see if it improved or worsened before deciding on the next steps.

William looked much better today. Since Elias had no other business, he chatted with him for a bit and was about to leave.

William then asked, "Where did Lyle go after leaving Capebatt City?"

Elias replied, "How would I know?"

"Drop the act," he said.

Elias then smiled and said, "We chatted on WhatsApp a couple of days ago. He went to Eprand to visit his younger siblings. He plans to travel abroad after that for a vacation before figuring out what to do next."

William grunted softly in acknowledgment.

Elias raised an eyebrow. "Aw, are you feeling soft-hearted? I could tell Lyle to come back to Capebatt City once he's done traveling."

William sneered. "When have I ever forgiven traitors?"

Elias shrugged helplessly. "Alright then, take care of yourself. I need to visit my family."

William nodded.

After Elias left, William picked up his phone and checked the Faldorian Daily.

The current biggest news topic in Faldoria was undoubtedly the merging of the Filo Group and SAM.

After announcing the news, SAM quickly launched new products, riding on its new wave of popularity. The new products sold well, and the stock price had steadily risen to 75 dollars, several times its original value of 25 dollars.

Across from her was Wesley, who had finished his meal. He was working on his tablet, tapping the screen to flip through pages.

"I told you I could teach you, but no, you insisted on coming to Baliz for your studies. Who would still be studying at your age? Of course, people will think you're a teenager," he said.

Emelie put down the newspaper and reasoned with him, saying, "I'm only 26 this year. What do you mean 'at your age'? If someone didn't know better, they'd think I was 36 or 46. Don't gaslight me," she said.

The maids behind them smiled. Wesley's words didn't really make sense, but he was only this unreasonable with her. They had all come from the Denning Residence in Merciannas to take care of her, and they noticed that since she had arrived, he seemed much more lively.

Emelie continued, "Besides, even if I were in my thirties or forties, learning has no age limit. As long as I'm willing, I can study even when I'm seventy or eighty."

The calm expression on Wesley's face didn't reveal much emotion. His gaze was serene, like the deep autumn waters in the garden—clear and distant.

"Can't you tell that I don't want you to call other people your teacher?" he said.
