Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 23 Inscrutable Expression
Emelle downed all three shots in one go. She then said with a smile, "There. May luck lead your way, Mr. Spencer. I really am occupied tonight, so I won't be able to join. Apologies."
Emelie then turned and left while William watched on darkly.
Emelle's swift reaction and departure left Troy's friends with insufficient time to react and prevent her from leaving. They grumbled to themselves after Emelie left, saying she was no fun.
However, that was just as Emelle had intended.
Emelie was already trapped in a situation where her only means of leaving the room was by drinking the alcohol, just three shots. It seemed like a simple solution to her immediate problem and would allow her to continue searching for Mona. So why hesitate?
However, Emelie knew that while rebellion was an option, relying too heavily on it would only entertain Troy's friends without truly advancing her cause.
Emelie didn't want to think about how William had intended for her to drink those shots.
Meanwhile, William had extinguished his cigarette after Emelie left. He glanced at the people who were drinking, which made the latter few ask, "What is it, Will?"
Jayden piped up, "One can get drunk very easily once one drinks different kinds of liquor. Why don't you
check up on Emelie? After all, this is a pretty shady place."
Daphne tightened her grip around William's hand and forced out a smile. "Emelie has really good alcohol
tolerance, so she should be fine. But she did appear to be in a hurry to find whoever she was looking for. Why don't you see if she needs help, Mr. Middleton?"
"Are you sleepy yet? Need me to drive you home?" William responded instead.
Daphne leaned against his shoulder, saying, "Not at all. I'll keep you company."
Troy was more clear-minded and now thought
"I'll check on her then."
den had a point. He was concerned for Emelie's safety.
Emelie called Mona's number when Mona didn't write her a response over text. There was a dial tone, but
no one picked up.
The light in the hallway was dim, and the scent of tobacco and perfumes smelled awful together. Emelie's stomach churned uncomfortably with the heavy smells in addition to the drinks she'd downed earlier. As
she grew anxious, she began dry heaving.
As the door to the private room beside her opened and a few people walked out, Emelie stumbled into them. The man who she bumped into held her steady. Emelie quickly pulled away and said, "I'm sorry. I
didn't mean to,"
The man was silent for a moment before saying, "It's alright."
Emelie was about to look up when her phone call suddenly went through. Mona could be heard saying."

Emelie, I'm on the third floor..."

However, Emelie couldn't hear what was being said after that. But there seemed to be more than one man speaking in the background. Emelle immediately ran upstairs.
The man whom she had bumped into watched her as she ran off, his emotions unreadable.
But soon, two figures ran past the man's vision. One of them made the man's eyes narrow.
"Mona, which room are you in?" Emelie asked over the phone. But Mona didn't respond anymore, which made Emelie feel very uneasy.

The men saw how gorgeous she was and said teasingly, "We're just having a
business meeting. Who doesn't drink during one of these?"
Emelie had grown very experienced and wise in such matters after so many years of being William's secretary in Cloudex Corporation, so she knew she
couldn't fight fire with fire.

call it a night?"
The men chuckled unpleasantly.
