Winning Her Heart Back (Emelie Hoven )
CHAPTER 72

Chapter 72 Astray

William was more skilled than Emelle’s coach. He sped across the sea with Emelle.

The splashing water made it hard for her to keep her eyes open, and her heart was racing with adrenaline.

“Having fun?” William asked. Noticing her excitement, he leaned down and playfully nipped at her neck

Emelie flinched instinctively. But she was too caught up in the moment to react or respond.

It was simply amazing. She was having an absolute blast

She even found herself captivated by the thellling experience of body and soul separation

At that moment, her mind was empty, with only one word resonating from head to toe–Euphoria!

“Wanna go faster?” William casually asked.

Emelle’s eyes sparkled. “We can actually go faster?”

With a smirk, William revved the throttle, propelling them past the other jet–ski riders.

The vast sea welcomed their excitement.

Emelie couldn’t contain herself any longer, letting out a scream, “Woo

William just grinned, looking somewhat indulgent.

After over an hour of fun, they finally made their way back to the ship. Emelie’s legs were like jelly, barely able to hold her up.

Grabbing her arm, William smiled and whispered something in her ear..

Still buzzing from the excitement, Emelie’s ears were ringing. Staring at him blankly, she couldn’t quite make out what he said.

Letting her go, William watched as she collapsed onto the deck.

Emelle was too exhausted to care. She was just sitting there to recover from the thrill ninning through her veins.

Elias walked over and said, “You two are quite the daredevils! Watching from behind, we’re worried sick you might flip your jet ski.”

William shrugged it off. “She wanted to have fun, so I took her out”

Elias seemed to be implying something deeper when he said, “Ms. Hoven, Will hasn’t ridden a jet ski in years. You’ve led him astray today.”

As Emelie began to recover, she couldn’t shake the feeling that it was just harmless fun.

She couldn’t understand why Elias was making it sound like such a big deal.

She was even thinking about enrolling in a training class once they returned.

She was determined to master jet skiing on her own so she could enjoy it in the future.

“Being all wet on the deck could easily give you a cold”

Several people approached, each carrying a large towel, and handed them out to the women.

Emelie recognized the voice and tumed to see–it was Samuel

He came up to her. He opened a large towel and draped it over her, then he squatted down to face her.

“Ms. Hoven, what a coincidence to see you again,” he said, smiling.

Wrapped in his towel, Emelie looked thoroughly drenched. Blinking at him, she asked, “Mr. Swanson, what brings you here?”

–

Samuel smiled. “I’m here with my older brother. He said I spent too much time cooped up in school like a nerd and insisted on taking me out

to relax.”

Elias nudged William’s arm, gesturing to him,

William walked over and pulled Emelie up from the deck.

“You should head back to the room and change. There’s a bunch meeting.”

Feeling completely soaked and chilled, Emelie was already planning to change, so she nodded.

She politely said to Samuel, “Mr. Swanson, see you later.”

“Sure thing, see you later.”

After Emelie left, Samuel also stood up and greeted William.

“Hey, Mr. Middleton ”

William responded calmly, “Mr. Swanson, you seem pretty considerate of my secretary.”

Samuel responded graciously, “Ms. Hoven introduced my sister to work with you, which was really kind of her.

“Naturally, we, the Swansons, want to look out for her. By the way, I haven’t properly thanked you for looking after my sister.”

William waved it off, saying, “There’s no need for thanks.”

With their contrasting personalities–one reserved and the other affable–the two men faced each other without either giving way.

Unaware of the tension between V William and Samuel, Emelie made her way back to the room.

On the way back, she encountered several men looking at her with suggestive smiles, making her feel uneasy.

Emelie tightened her towel, hastened her pace, and faintly overheard them saying, “I’ll take care of this one…”

As she approached the room, she encountered two women in bikinis. Emelie instinctively stepped aside to let them pass.

But as they brushed past each other, one of the women muttered under her breath, “Slut”
