FreeNovelChapter 697 Everything Has Changed Emelie stood in the hallway, leaning against the wall as she waited. It wasn't long before William emerged.
Emelie remained where she was. "Will you need surgery?" William replied gently, "No, just an IV drip will suffice." Emelie nodded. "I've accompanied you to the hospital, and you've had your examination. Your illness is being treated. Now, can you tellwhat I want to know?" William took a few steps towards her until he was right in front of her.
He wore a black puffer jacket that reached his calves, with a black fur-lined collar that made his pale skin and thin jawline even more pronounced. He looked like one of those dashing vampires from an animated series.
"Before we proceed, can I ask you a question?" he asked.

She used to be someone who rarely lost her temper. She was always the most reserved and humble Ms. Hoven. Of course, it wasn't to say that she was currently someone who got upset easily.
The reason she had snapped earlier at the stranger was because the doctor had presumptuously guessed their relationship. It was also because she didn't want to be at the hospital with him, but had endured it because she cared about the truth.
William began speaking again, but the information was still not what Emelie was waiting to hear.
He said, "I also know about the twhen prohibited drugs suddenly appeared in the shipment when you completed the SAM acquisition and becthe director of the leather goods at the Filo Group.
"It led to your detention and investigation by the Baliz police for three days and nights. I know who plotted that." Emelie frowned. "I want to know who orchestrated Wesley's car accident." William ignored her and continued, "And when you went to Mazia to mine gold, someone broke into your roo room at the Beierde Hotel in the middle of the night, attempting to harm you. I know the real culprit behind these incidents. I can tell you, with no conditions attached." Emelie had no idea why he was discussing irrelevant matters.
She raised her voice, "I don't need to hear that. I want the information about Wesley." William hesitated and took a step back. "I'll tell you about these two matters first, and then I'll tell you about Wesley. How about that?" Emelie's patience was wearing thin. "No, thank you!" William took a deep breath, feeling a burning pain in his lungs. "Are you really that concerned about him? Despite your disdain for me, you still accompaniedto the hospital for an examination. The other two matters are about you and even threaten your safety, but you care more about Wesley." Emelie's face remained expressionless.
William held his chest and leaned against the wall. He looked down before raising his head again.
"Then if I tell you that someone is secretly planning to kill Wesley, how much are you willing to pay for this information?" he said. Emelie looked at him, her brow relaxing as she laughed. "Oh? So, what will it take? What do you want in exchange?" William' pressed his dry lips together.

Emelie finally moved closer, her voice slow. "Do you wantto stay with you in the hospital until you recover, of do you wantto lie down naked in bed waiting for you? Hmm?" William's face seemed to turn even paler. Emelie's toes nearly touched his as they stood close together.
"What? Are these demands too much for you to voice? They shouldn't be. Didn't you make similar demands before?" she said.
Emelie suddenly sneered, grabbing his collar and pulling him close.
In a whisper only they could hear, she said, "William, you've changed, and so have I. I won't obediently follow your orders. Instead, I'll find a way to capture you discreetly, put you in a basement, and torture you until you confess the truth."
