Knocked Three Times 

The woman with fox–the eyes gazed expectantly at William 

dding and was Ekely feeling dejected 

She believed that he would definitelcept her. After all, he had suffered a mishap at his wedding 

People often said that waren were a soothing balm for a man’s wounds. She was obedient and willing to do anything. Surely, he would take her in. 

However, things didn’t exactly as she had planned. Instead of acceptance, she saw a look of ridicule on William’s face. 

Just as she opened her mouth to speak, William countered, “What makes you think that just because teoldn’t get married, I would be interested in you 

The woman froze in shock 

For the first time in days, William displayed a mocking expression. “If I need a woman, I have plenty of choices. What makes you special? Do you think imitating her experience will make you a suitable replacement? Do you think you’re worthy?! 

Her story of family debt, being forced to fend for herself, encountering a scoundrel, narrowly avoiding violation, and concidentally meeting him and desperately seelding help… If it had rained tonight, the scene would have mirrored the exact time when he met Emelie 

The difference was William was never the kind of person who would act out of goodwill without reason. 

He had

saved Emelle back then because she was Entelle. As for others, whether they were geminely in trouble or not, he had no interest in getting involved. 

He had even less interest in taking her in as a substitute, 

He had no interest in replacements 

The woman with fox repes felt humiliated Her face tuned pale as she smuggled to speak 

William got straight into the car. Ashton, having finished dealing with the aftermath, glanced at the wom before getting into the car as well. The vehicle drove off just like that before her 

The women paused for a long time. She couldn’t understand where she had gone wrong. 

Yes, she had been acting 

She wanted so badly to be by his side that she had gathered information everywhere. She found out what kind of person his new bride was and how they met, thinking that mimicking that would touch him and fulfill her wishes 

However, it was useless. Aman kehim would never beachable unless he wanted to be 

the back seat of the car as the streetlights continuously cast shadows on his fair, handsome face. He tristed the wedding ring on his finger 

His rainy–day counter with Emelie was known to no one. He hadn’t even mentioned it to Jayden. Thus, how did this woman find out? 

Was someone intentionally feeding her information to arrange her approach? What was their motive? 

He said, “Investigate that womann” 

Ashton replied, “Understood.” 

He lowered his hand “Prepare well for next week’s celebration banquet.” 

Ashton replied again, “Understood.” 

Clouder Corporation, Swanson Corporation, and Davis Group reached a new cooperation agreement, jointly establishing a new company. Each held 20% of the shares, with Beathan serving as the legal representative and legaladvisor. 

This collaboration marked the first alliance of four major business plants, and it certainly became a significantevent in the business world Cloudex Corporation even held a celebration banquet for 

The banquet was extravagantly herous, sweeping away the gloom left by the abrupt change at the wedding half month ago. Willam was no longer in a sickly state. Not only did he attend the banquet, but he also personally lock the stage with representatives from the other three companies to unveil the new company’s plaque, 

As the red cloth slowly fell, the media’s flashlights went off in succession. Everyone witnessed the birth of anther Group 

Xanther Group and Xander Group were only ateur letters apart. The latter had fallen into disgrace twenty–six years ago, becoming a nearly forgotten chapter of history. The former was now and would be the focus of all attention. 

The banquet was led with the clinking of glasses and toasts. It was a scene of hedonistic splendor, laughter, and joy. 

Willam stood there. For once, he was acting indifferent to the media’s cameras and not rejecting the guests‘ greetings. The flashlights and cameras captured every moment of William’s spirited presence. 

He accepted every toast graciously and thanked everyone. Dressed in a bespoke black suit, he was elegant and incomparable. He was once again the unrivaled heir of the Middleton family in Capeball Cirp 

In the surge of admiration and respect, all truths were swept into the depths and disappeared without a trace 

Meanwhile, fat way, there was a large yacht selling slowly, looking like an isolated island, on the sea. It was hidden in the night, with nothing but darkness ahead. 

The deck lights were din 

Wesley wore a pair of white trousers and a shirt. The shirt was loose and untucked, making him appear atle sloppy as the sea breeze inflated the back of his shirt into a large puit. He wore a pale of sandals on his feet. 

Looking at his appearance, one might think that he was on a cruise. 

However, he was carrying a large bottle of

ions he knocked three times on the door of a room on the third level. He knew that the person inside was likely still unconscious,
