Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 399 Pregnant
Once back in the hotel room, William made a call and asked someone to bring him some fresh clothes.
His sickness wasn't unforeseen.
He was already feeling a little under the weather when he was at Alderbrook. Then he traveled overnight from Capebatt City to Weston for Emelie. In the end, he fell ill after walking around on a snowy day.
He put on his shirt while looking at the full-body mirror. His slender hands buttoned it up but the expression on his face was still as pale as bitter cold. He didn't retain the hint of the roguishness he had when Emelie was around.
It was true. He had to become a tramp so that he could stay in Emelie's room through the night. He could tell Emelie hadn't forgotten their past either.
Everything that happened in the past caused Emelie to have heavy doubts about him. Their relationship was extremely fragile. Whatever goodwill he had built had all been ruined thanks to Daphne. And now, she was once again on full alert.
This was indeed karma.
He put on his jacket, walked out of the room and called the elevator.
Then, he encountered Elias, who was going downstairs in the elevator as well.
Elias moved his phone aside and asked in surprise, "Will? Didn't you go back to Capebatt City?"
William briefly frowned. "I got here yesterday."
Elias looked at his pale face and said, "So, you're really sick? Did you go to the hospital?"
William answered without a change in his expression. I'm fine now."
Elias gave him a curious look.
William was standing with his back straight like a tall statue.
Elias suddenly realized what was going on and raised his eyebrow, "Ah... I see. You're making yourself sick intentionally so you can make peace with Ms. Hoven? Not bad, Will. You're trying to get her sympathy.
He and William had been acquainted for over twenty years and had never seen him put himself so low. He was not as empathetic as Jayden, so all he did was tease him. "It's quite impressive seeing that she's able to make you put in so much effort."
William would never tell him he still hadn't won Emelie's heart despite all the effort.
He was getting somewhat annoyed out of embarrassment. He didn't know he would see Elias here. He said, "I can see that your relationship with Ashley hasn't gotten any better either."
"Don't worry. She'll be mine once she gets pregnant," Elias said as he folded his arms in front of his chest
and suggested to William, "Maybe you can try this too, William. Make her pregnant and I can guarantee she'll stick with you."
William gave him an unfriendly glance and said, "Rather than giving me suggestions, maybe you should ask around and find out who the Allens have hired to represent them."
When the elevator stopped on the first floor, William didn't wait and marched away.
Elias didn't care about who the Allens hired.
While Ashley wasn't a qualified wife, she was a very skilled lawyer. Few lawyers in the Southern Region were her match. Victory was a low-hanging fruit.
Not to mention that it had nothing to do with him, whether she won the case or not.
He wanted to find someone else to tease William with him instead.
He was already calling Jayden while he was walking the short distance from the elevator to the hotel entrance.
Jayden chuckled when he heard it as well. Meanwhile, Elias was still quite confused. "How did he fall for Ms. Hoven all of a sud
anyway?"
Jayden spun a ball pen in his hand as he sat in his office and he said in a knowing tone, "He didn't fall for Ms. Hoven suddenly. He had his eyes on her this whole time, but he simply didn't realize it. After so many things happened, he probably finally realized what he really wanted."
Elias stroked his chin. "Even his 'kind' stepmother is making her moves. Why didn't he stay in Capebatt City but follow Ms. Hoven all the way to Weston instead? Is he as obsessed with love as you?"
Jayden had no comments.
Jayden quickly finished the conversation. "Alright, I'm busy. See you around."

Elias gritted his teeth as he faked a smile. "Enough. I know what his name

Of course, he knew who he was.
That was his wife's ex-boyfriend.
Ashley didn't tell him anything about this at all.
No wonder William asked him to ask who the Allens had hired.
