Chapter 261 Emelle is quite Interesting


    Emile suddenly remembered the incident on the Graham sip. William had brought her to the second–floor room, and Charles had sat at the poker table. He instructed her to


    fetch him <b>a </b>cigarette


    Back then, if she hadplied with his request, it would have been demeaning to her. So, she had chosen not to follow his request


    However, she newer anticipated that charles would suddenly bring up this matter here.


    As Emelie realized the situation, she not only felt the same sense of being belittled as before but also a hint of being toyed with unknowingly. She felt a tinge of anger rising within


    bec.


    However, it was <b>just </b>about lighting a cigarette. It wasn’t like she had any reason to explode.


    William nced at her expressionlessly before continuing his conversation with Charles, but <b>his </b>tone had be noticeably colder.


    Emelie remained silent as she ate her food. Her phone vibrated as she received a WhatsApp message from Bryan, asking her for some data.


    Erbe replied brieflybefore putting her phone down and continuing her meal.


    Bryan took the opportunity and asked, “How is your mother? Are you in the hospital now? Should Ie over to see Mrs. Hoven?”


    Emelie chewed on a piece of vegetable slowly, her eyes flickering with something indiscernible.


    Then, she sent him a message. After putting down her phone she continued eating.


    Charles observed her silent indignation and suppressedughter. “Just a secretary,” he thought.


    He then turned to William and said, “I heard that you’ve recently started a big project in Wimstour City.”


    “Mr. Davis, you’re really well–informed,” <b>William </b>replied tly


    “I got <b>wind </b>of it through a rumor. They said that you’d encountered some troublemakers there, and I thought that maybe I could help if <b>you </b>couldn’t handle it.”


    Charles continued as he exhaled the cigarette smoke, “After all, we’re in real estate. Dealing with troublemakers <b>is </b>our specialty.”


    William nced at him, and his tone was cool as he said, “It’s just a minor issue. There’s no need to trouble yourself, Mr. Davis. But I appreciate the offer.”N?velDrama.Org ? 2024.


    Charles had a strong craving <b>for </b>cigarettes. He smoked three during the meal. Fortunately, his cigarettes were of higher quality, so the room wasn’t filled with a heavy nicotine scent. Otherwise, it would have been suffocating


    As the meal was ending, there was amotion outside the private room.


    The manager said, “This room can’t be inspected. Whatint did you receive? Isn’t it inappropriate to inspect us like this? Who’s your superior?


    “You don’t need to know who our superior is. Didn t you receive the notice at the beginning of the month? Indoor smolding is prohibited in public ces. Have you implemented that role? Step aside!”


    Without giving the four people in the room a chance to react, the door was directly opened. Severalve enforcement officers appeared, and they immediately noticed the cigarette in Charles<b>‘ </b>hand


    Thew enforcement officers caught hun red–handed and said sterly, “ording to Article 19 of the Capebatt City Public ce Smoking Contral Regtions, individuals smoking in smoke–free areas and refusing toply with the advice will be lined two hundred dors, Give me your ID!”


    charles was speechless.


    Charles, who had just been humted in front of his cousin and business partner, pressed his tongue against his cheek for a while. He felt that something was amiss and suddenly looked at Emelie


    “Ms. Haven, did you report this? <b>Why </b>else would theye straight to our room?”


    Emelle remained calm. “Mr. Davis, <b>I’ve </b>been in the room the whole time. I haven’t even gone to the restroom. How could I have made a phone call to report this?”


    William’s cold expression rxed slightly at this. He put his arm on the back of Emelie schair and sneered.


    “Mr. <b>Davis</b>, don’t be upset. Two hundred dors is like taking a lesson that teaches you to be aw–abiding citizen in the fature. It’s worth it”


    Charles stared at Emelle, who <b>remained </bpletely unfazed. Suddenly, he chuckled and tossed the entire pack of cigarettes into the trash can.


    “It was absolutely worth it. From now on, I’m quitting smoking.”


    Emelie didn’t even nce at him. The meal ended, and William led Emelle out


    Charles leaned back in his <b>chair</b>, pondering. He had only meant to tease Emelie, but she had managed to retaliate. He had once said that she resembled <b>a </b><b>cat</b>, and he wasn’t wrong Freille was interesting


    Charles liited his gate to Elena “Elena, do you know William?”


    it seemed like she had nced at William at least five times during the meal. Each time, she looked like she wanted to say something.
