Chapter 306 Despised


    On the ground?


    Emelle raised her head immediately.


    She didn’t know whether <b>Sofia </b>was being serious or whether she had just made a remark <b>out </b>of anger because she was worried about her kids.


    The living hall became silent. No one spoke. Sofiawas <b>still </b>ring at Emelie. It was as if everyone was waiting <b>for </b>Emelie to get on the ground. Emelle stood on the thick and soft carpet in her high heels. She felt her legs weaken, and it felt as if she couldn’t keep her bnce. Besides that, she felt sick.


    She pursed her lips and wanted to say something.


    At this moment, the crisp and sharp sound of someone putting a cup down on the ss table rang out


    Emelie Instinctively looked in the direction of the sound. It hade from the couch, where William was sitting


    However, before she could see his expression, Elma spoke up. Emelie had trouble focusing and was distracted by her voice.


    “Mrs. Sofia<b>, </b>please calm down. Mr. Middleton, please stand up for Ms. Hoven,


    Then, William said, “Mrs. Matilda, does the Navarro family make people beg for forgiveness before even knowing the truth?”


    William was finally speaking up for Emelle.


    But it was only because Elena had told him to


    <b>Emelle </b>turned around. She didn’t <b>have </b>the desire to look at William. The anticipation that she <b>had </b>felt when she had heard the sound of the ss clinking was ridiculous.


    “Of course not. This matter hasn’te to light yet why would we do such a thing and humiliate Ms. Hoven?”


    <b>It </b>was only then that Matilda reprimanded Sofiasoftly, “Sofia, you must be tired. You’ve even made those remarks out of anger. You should get some rest upstairs<b>. </b>I’ll take care of this.”


    Then, she added, “Ms. Hoven, please take a seat.”


    In a low voice, Emelie said, “Thank you, Mrs. Matilda.”


    She walked over to the unupied couch. Her legs had stiffened and be weak after standing for such a long time.


    After taking two steps, she couldn’t help but fall forward. Thankfully, the couch was right in front of her. So, she managed to steady herself.


    At the same time, William grabbed her.


    The couch that was closest to her was the single–seater couch beside William


    Emelle quickly pulled her hand <b>out </b>of his grasp. She moved so quickly that it seemed as if something would happen if he touched her. His expression became cold instantly. Emelie looked at Marida. She could feel the heat on her eyelids, and her voice was hoarse as she said, “Mrs. Matilda, I’ve told you everything. Ms. Amanda and Mr. Marcus being poisoned has nothing to do with me.”


    – <b>Matilda </b>said, “Ms. Hoven, I’ve listened to your exnation. However, you’re the most suspicious one out of everyone we’ve looked into.


    “My family and Swanson Corporation are both well–respected in Weston. If we take this matter to the police, it’ll be bad for both parties. That’s why we n to look into it ourselves.”


    Emelle pursed her lips. “Tunderstand”


    “That’s great. I hope you’ll cooperate with us so that we can find out the truth as soon as possible. In that way, our coboration won’t be affected.”


    Thatst sentence was <b>a </b>threat


    Emelie held her breath. “How do you want me to cooperate with you?”


    Matilda got up and looked at her, “Since it’s alreadyte at night, it’ll be difficult to drive on the mountain road. You should stay here for the night.”Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    Emelie wanted to say that she didn’t want to bother them, but Matilda continued, “I’m old, so I don’t sleep a lot. I’ll wake up at 7:00 <b>am</b>.”


    Emelle was taken aback. Then, she understood<b>.</b>


    Matilda didn’t ask her to stay there for the night because it was difficult to drive on the mountain road in the dark. Instead, Matilda had asked Emelie to stay behind because si wanted thetter to find the real culprit before she woke up.


    If Emelie couldn’t find the culprit, would <b>Matilda </b>make her take the me and suffer the Navarro family’s wrath?


    Emelie only knew that this was an unexpected misfortune.


    But this misfortune could be brought to an <b>end </b>instantly if William said, “I was with her the entire timest night. She didn’t do anything.”


    At this moment, Emelie despised him. He said that he wouldpensate <b>her</b>, but he refused to even lend her a helping hand.
