Winning Her Heart Back

 Emelie, Where Are You?

Several hours prior in Eprand, thousands of kilometers away, Wesley finally returned to his hotel at midnight after dealing with the incident at the theme park.

He entered the bathroom to wash his hands, then opened a bottle of mineral water. As he sipped the water, he pondered over the day's events.

When he was alone, he was always calm and cold. It was starkly different from the warmth that he displayed when Emelie was around. He was rather unapproachable and only treated Emelie well.

Two beeps were heard. The door opened and Jodie entered promptly, carrying a stack of documents.

Wesley put aside his mineral water and skimmed through the papers after taking them from Jodie. He smirked and said, "This person is indeed more useful than my uncles.

Jodie said in a low voice, "His efforts this year with Bryan, just like last year's car accident, have been successful."

"Not entirely," Wesley responded, tossing the documents onto the bar counter. "Otherwise, you wouldn't have uncovered these details."

It was evident that they had help from someone working in the theme park. They had identified this insider before Wesley arrived. The insider held a high position, being the deputy head of the park.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

However, Wesley was surprised by the insider's timidity. As soon as he arrived, the insider confessed.

The insider said that he was initially afraid, but someone powerful in the company promised that he would be safe. This gave him the courage to proceed.

"It seems that they were anxious after the news of your marriage to Ms. Emelie reached Mercianna. After all, the madam said that you can get 5% more of the group's shares if you got married. They were afraid of you growing stronger, so they were careless when acting," Jodie explained.

Moreover, due to the insider's fear, things were quickly exposed.

Wesley took another sip of his mineral water.

Jodie didn't wait for further instructions and asked, "What should we do with these people? Should we dismiss them or have the lawyer sue them?"

Wesley tossed the empty bottle into the trash can and replied calmly, "Take care of everything. Don't forget to send a token of appreciation to my aunt. It's only proper."

What did Wesley mean by "take care"?

Jodie shivered.

Ludy Fun Park was huge. Jodie being Wesley's second-in-command position meant that her skills, experience, and connections are significant.

However, for him to just casually tell her to take care of it...

This is why Wesley's apparent calmness in front of Emelie was just a facade. His ability to rise to the position of group's leader as the maternal grandson required a ruthless and resolute nature.

Jodie exited the room in silence, leaving Wesley to his thoughts.

Wesley's expression turned back to its usual indifference.

Although no one was hurt, park-goers would doubt the safety of the theme park. A negative reputation was hard to shake.

They had taken seven years to build this theme park, and it had taken an investment of a few billion. If he failed to protect the company this time, they would face a great loss. It could even endanger Wesley's position in the company.

He had downplayed the severity in front of Emelie because he didn't want her to worry. In fact, this matter

was far more troublesome than she knew. He had to make sure that the public relations department had it under control.

Welsey stepped into the bathroom and started taking off his vest, wanting to take a shower.

He suddenly remembered that he had not called Emelie today. So, he grabbed his phone and dialed her

number, but the call went unanswered as the ringtone eventually ceased.

He frowned, wondering if Emelie had already gone to bed. He would try again the following day.

He removed his vest and tossed it into the laundry basket. As he did that, he raised his arm, revealing his defined muscles, forming an attractive curve.

He was about to take off his shirt when an unsettling feeling struck him.

Wesley felt it was unusual for Emelie to have gone to bed without calling him, especially since he was in Eprand handling such significant issues.

She would usually reach out and ask about the situation. But now, she didn't even answer her phone.

He remembered that she had gone to the Swanson family's banquet tonight and grew concerned.

He stepped back and leaned against the sink. Then, he called Lyle on his mobile, and the call was answered promptly.

Wesley asked directly, "Where's Emelie?"
