Chapter 549

She’s Dead 

William stared at Emelie’s ashen face, his face mirroring the same pallor “You would rather die than see me again?” 

“Wouldn’t it be better for you if 1 died? You won’t ever have to worry again that i might appear with the account book to expose all of you,” Emelie said. 

William stared into her hollow eyes. They were once so beautiful, now they were currently devoid of luster. A string in his heart suddenly snapped when he realized that there was no way he could get her to stay this time. 

He tightened his grip on the knife again, yet he asked one more time. “There’s absolutely no chance you’ll stay, right?” 

“Can you bring my mother back to Ede?” she asked. 

He couldn’t, and neither could she. They couldn’t be together anymore. 

After a moment of silence, William tumed his head away, his complexion turning increasingly pale. 

He looked at Charles and then glanced at Beattan who was hiding among the bushes in his car the entire time. Finally, he turned back to Emelie. 

His face grew a shade paler. Emelie looked so disheveled, and William was about the same, equally as bloodstained as she was. 

He said, very slowly, “Ms. Hoven, do you know that slashing your throat is one of the most painful ways to die? Your life doesn’t end with just one swift stroke. It cuts open your windpipe, causing you to suffocate. Since I killed your mother, don’t you want to take my life for revenge before you die? 

Emelie looked at his impassive face. 

She thought of how this was the same person who forced Roman to his death, drove Greta insane, and ultimately killed her. She had lost her family twice at his hands. A momentary surge of profound hatred stirred within the dead calmness of her heart William released her knife, and Emelie tightened her grip on it. He pointed to his heart, indicating for her to stab him there. Emelie’s eyes turned bloodshot, and in the next moment, she thrust the knife towards him. “Then let’s die together!” 

However, before she could reach him, a sharp and unstoppable force pierced through the air toward her. Before she could react, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest, causing her to freeze in place. 

Several seconds passed before she slowly lowered her head to look. 

Time seemed to stop at that moment. The raging wind and everything in the wilderness seemed to stand still as 

as her world fell into silence, 

Charles hurried forward to check, his hands clenched at his sides. Meanwhile, Beathan squinted at the sight. Vanessa hadn’t left yet, and Jayden and Ellas had arrived after meeting on the road. 

All of them witnessed the scene of William shooting Emelie in the chest with his crossbow. It was right at her heart, killing her. 

Willam said with a hoarse voice, “I wanted to protect you, but you didn’t appreciate my intentions. You’ve disappointed me and wasted all my plans for you.” 

Even now, he was claiming that she had disappointed him, 

Emelle’s body hurt so much that she couldn’t feel the pain in her heart. She looked at the arrow lodged in her chest, realizing that she had ended up dying at William’s hands after 

She felt her life slipping away. She fell onto the grass, staggering, her legs unable to support her body. 

April was springtime in Capebatt City. The grass had grown tall, and the flowers were in full bloom. 

She looked at an unfamiliar flower, feeling a bit lost. Then, she faintly recalled that it was both her birthday and her wedding day, 

Jayden and Elias ran over to him together, “Will! How could you- 

“She didn’t want to live anymore, so I granted her wish,” he said, 

Witam pulled out a handkerchief from his coat pocket, tying it tightly around his bleeding hand. He clenched the comer of the handkerchief with his teeth and tied a tight knot. He croaked with a trembling voice, “Ellas, have someone throw her into the sea” 

“Throw her into the sea? Elias was surprised. 

“How else are we supposed to get rid of her body and the evidence? Hurry up, the police will be here soon,” 

With a splash, the sea became her coffin, burying the motionless Emelie in its greatest depths. Property © of .

“William said. 

Asif He Was About to Cry 

No one had expected that the wilding of the Middleton family’s only son would end in such a surprising way After all, their family was the greatest in Capebutt Ci

He passed by Charles nest, who neered at him, saying, “You suce are ruthless, Mr. Middleton 

He got into car and drove t 

Vancar quickly caught up. When they were side by side, she rolled down her window and gently said, “My condolences, Wiliam.” 

With astole expression, William dreve away. 

On the other hand, Vanessa pulled over, walking for Beathan’s car to catch up. Only then did they line together. Obviously, they needed to find a place to discuss this matter. They hadn’t expected William is kill Emelle. 

driving for a distance, the driver finally asked, “Mr. Middleton, are we heating back to Eastbaye 

“Go to the wedding venue,” William replied. 

When willam went to chase after the wedding car be left the verse under Ashion and Fabian’s care. They had already sent the injured guests to a private hospital for treatment. Since they all only experienced minor injuries, they would be discharged

after their wounds were bandaged. 

However, these guests were all influentialfigers. Since such an unexpected incident had occurred at the Midleton family’s wedding reception, they had to do a lot of work to handle the abermath properly. 

The scope hadn’t been cleaned up yet. Tables and chairs were overturned, and food was scattered on the ground. Most of the vases were broken, and even the hydrangeas had been trampledon. 

William slowly bent down, intending to pick up a flower, However, as soon as he touched it, the flower crumbled into pieces, scattering the stars in the sky 

Personally chosen by Emelie, Hydrangeas symbolize perfection and beauty. 

“Are we using mses for the wedding? Imelle asked. 

“Yes, don’t you like them?” William replet. 

“They’re a bit common,” Emelie said. 

Willam asked, “What kind of flowers would you be?”! 

“Since we’ve scrapped the bouquet tous sent, why not change the flowers to hydrangeas? After the wedding, ghe a dower to each lady who attended. After all, hydrangeas symbole perfection and beauty. Every won would probably apprecies this blessing.” Entert. 

“Alright, I go with your suggestion,” Willam said. 

When they discussed the flowers in detail, she seemed so thoughtful as it the genuinely wanted to marry him. 

No one could tell if William was wearing a blek or indentexpression. He stared at the chans before him and remained motionless for a long time 

Ashton noticed that his handkerchief was stained red with blond. 

She stepped forward and said, “Mr. Middleton, pour injury looks serious too. Let’s go to the hospital and get it bondaged.” 

William’s expression didn’t change, but his waler sounded house. “Has the site been cleaned up?” 

“It’s been cloaned up. ww’ve also informed everyone. It probably wouldn’t be passed butter. After all, Ashton used for a moment before continuing.” 

“there’s no one left 

Ms. Howen’s house.” 

No one would seek justice for her death. 

Wiliam’s face was so pale it looked seal. “What about her hee friends? 

Ashton replied, “old them that Ms. Hoven has let Capebatt Cky and stently outstation. Mr. Hardy’s parents are stilling in her hometown, so we take care of her accordingly believe even if they suspect something, they won’t dare to do anything. It’s just that Ms. Thomson might—” 

“Leave Ashley to Elias,” William replied nonchalantly. 

Ashton bowed her head “Alright, as long as we pacify them, no one would findout” 

William took one last look at the wedding venue. “Clean up this place too, and cell the PR team to take care of the guests.” 

“Yes, sir,” Ashton said. 

William lowered his pare and slowly walked out of the wedding venue. Although he was facing the light, hà tihouette was blurry and indistinct. 

Ashton felt rather strautful. She never imagined that Emele would die like that. When they parted warps in the moming, she had praised Emelie for her beauty and wishedber happiness with a smile. 

However, just a few hours later, Emelie had vanished without a trace, with her corpse nowhere to be seen. While life was always unpredictable, her life was practically turned spride dow 

she heard a loud cough from outside, and she hurriedly ran out. 

For some reason, Wilhem was coughing again with one hand pressed on his chest. He seemed to be in pain as he covered his mouth with his other hand. The coughing worsened, and it soon turned completely uncontrollable 

“Mr.Middleton, are you alright?” Ashton asked. 

Williamseemed unable to hold himself up.
