Chapter 325 She Was His Backup

Swanson Corporation had an employee cafeteria, but melle felt that she might become the subject of gossip while people ate if she went there now, so she went to a nearby restaurant for lunch instead.

The restaurant had its doors wide open, facing the main road. As Elena passed by, she unintentionally glanced inside and spotted Emelle.

Emelie, what a coincidence."

Though Emelie had subtly confronted Elena that night at the Navarro residence, adults were adept at maintaining a facade of friendliness as long as they hadn't completely fallen

out.

Emelle also smiled. "Indeed, Ms. Allen What brings you over here?"

Flanawally sat down opposite her and ordered a bowl of chicken noodle soup, just Be Emelie's.

"I heard there's an old bookstore around here with some out-of-print classics, so I came to see if they have the book I'm looking for."

Emelie nodded and asked, "Did you replace a"

"No." Eleria was a little upset. "But it's okay. There's still some time before Mr. Middleton's birthday, so I'll ask a few friends to help me replace it."

Emelie paused. "It's a gift to Mr. Middleton?"

Elena smiled. "Yes,"

She wanted to convey to Emelie that Willam had taken her to Middleton Residence, where she not only met Henry and Vanessa but also received their approval.

Emelie added a spoonful of chili flakes to her soup and stirred. She watched the once-clear broth turn cloudy.

The waiter brought Elena's chicken noodle soup over. Elena picked up a spoon and said calmly, "Emelie, you urged me to catch up with Ms. Bowen last night, but I don't think it's

necessary.

Emelie looked up at her with a questioning gaze.

It was just the two of them here. Elena could be more straightforward with her words.

Elena continued, "You might not know this, but Mr. Middleton initially agreed to let William and Ms. Bowen be together. However, something happened, and now Mr. Middleton has made it clear that he will never accept Ms. Bowen marrying William. So it's impossible for them to be together."

Since the conversation had reached this point, Emelie no longer concealed her curiosity and asked directly, "What happened?"

Elena replied, "Whatever it was, Ms. Bowen is now in the past for sure, and I don't care anymore!

Oh, she didn't know either. But she didn't want to appear uninformed about William and the Middletons, so she played it cool.

At the end of the meal, Elena also revealed that she and William had dated in high school. They were each other's first loves, but they were too young and immature then. They separated over a trivial argument.

Now that they have both matured, she returned this time for William. Their families were compatible, and this time, they would surely see it through to the end.

"Emelie, you'll wish me well, won't you?" Elena looked at her expectantly.

Emelie paused for a few seconds before saying, "Even if I do, I doubt you'll believe it's sincere. Ms. Allen, as long as you have the ability to win William over and make him acknowledge you as his girlfriend, whether or not I wish you well doesn't really matter. No one can shake your position."

Truly, no one could, because Willam had never even publicly and clearly acknowledged Daphne as his girlfriend.

The closest he came was at Troy's birthday party, when Willam said he would marry Daphne in front of Henry and the Spencers and mentioned they could have a child by the end of the year if Henry agreed Apart from that instance, he never gave Daphne any definite status.

twas absurd and ridiculous for Emelie to think back on that night when she had asked William to give up the other ladies and "compete" to be her boyfriend.

Elena was confident. "I can do that."

They were each other's first love, and their families were well-matched in status. She possessed both beauty and talent. Most importantly, William obeyed her every word.

Emelie thought that maybe Elena really could. "I wish you well.

Emelie scanned the QR code to pay, only settling her own bill, and then left the restaurant.

she finally understood why William's attitude had been strange each time they met recently.

It turned out he had broken up with Daphne again.

Every time he broke up with Daphne, he would come looking for her, as he had that time in Wintour City

She was just his backup.

Furious, Emelie walked briskly toward Swanson Corporation with a cold expression on her face.

Suddenly, a figure rushed out, blocking her path and grabbing her hand. "I'm sorry, Ms. Hoven. Please forgive me."
