Chapter 32 Preferences
Emelie silently walked away from William’s view. Troy happened toe out to the doorway, so Emelle swiftly left with him. Her
back was exposed in the dress, showing off her sensual figure and waist.
Daphne had clearly noticed the way William looked at Emelle. She then looked down at herself.
Daphne was pretty skinny but not curvy in any way. William had gifted her an off–
shoulder chiffon dress studded with diamonds and faux flowers, which made her look quite ethereal and youthful.
Daphne had
thought it was beautiful, but the moment shepared herself to Emelie, she found herself dull“. Daphne couldn’t help but grimace when she thought ab
Daphne murmured, “Ms. Hoven said she and Mr. Spencer were just friends the other day, but their outfits
were matching just now, right?”
“I think so,” William responded tly.
Daphne continued, “She’s so pretty.”
William knew what Daphne was thinking and nonchntly said, “Too tacky. Women should dress more
modestly.”
Daphne grinned sweetly at him. She knew William had liked her in the first ce because of how modest
she was.
While Williambeled Emelie tacky, everyone else was astounded by how beautiful and striking she was. Emelie instantlymanded everyone’s attent
Troy felt all the more proud as the men gazed at him in sheer jealousy. He said to Emelie, “You’re truly the
most beautiful woman I’ve ever met, Emelie!”
Emelie–smiled. “Oh, stop it, Mr. Spencer.”
“I’m being serious. Do you see how everyone has been looking at you since you walked into the room?”
Troy believed Emeliecked confidence because
she had been dumped by William, prompting him tounch into a tirade. “Don’t think you’re any less beautiful just because Will dumped you for Daphne
“Well, Will’s preferences have never really changed. He’s always been drawn to the type of
woman who’s fragile and clueless, constantly relying on him. That’s prettyme, right?”
Emelle recalled the years spent with William. He’d often bring her to parties and events, both private and public.
She couldn’t remember when he slowly stopped bringing her out, though. At some point, William would only bring her along if it was necessary. Howeve
So, did William dump Emelie all because she was no longer “fragile” and wasn’t dependent on him anymore?
Emelie smiled, finding the whole thing quite hrious
She wasn’tcking in confidence. She simply wasn’t as mindful of her looks as Troy assumed, so she didn’t react much to everyone else’s astonishme
Emelie silently changed the topic. “Why don’t I join you in meeting your guests?”
“Yes, please do. You’re far more experienced in these sorts of things, unlike me. I have lots to learn from
you tonight.
Of course, Emelie knew how to socialize like this. She offered Troy tips as to what to say and how to behave She even introduced a lot
of people she knew from working at Cloudex Corporation for three
years to Troy
Troy’s parents were pleased by this as they observed their son from afar.
The quests were curious as to why Emelie was apanying Troy, however.
“Have you switched to working at Spencer Group, Ms. Hoven?”
Emelie responded courteously, “No, Mr. Spencer and I are just friends. I’m here to celebrate his birthday
with him, that’s all.”
“Ah, so that’s how it is.”
Troy was all the more fond of Emelie now. He made sure she was well–fed and even drank toast in her stead for fear she would grow ill from drinking.
This was the first time in ages someone had done that for Emelie. She thanked him sincerely. “Thank you,
Mr. Spencer.
Halfway through the party, Emelie needed to go to the restroom. Troy eagerly showed her the way and even said he’d wait for her toe out
before returning to the main hall.
But Troy was nowhere to be found by the time Emelie walked
d out.

Emelie felt that Troy wasn’t the kind of man who’d leave her behind right after promising he’d wait for her, so she looked around in search of him as she
All of sudden, someone grabbed Emelie’s arm.
Before she could react, they had dragged her into a nea
