Chapter 39 The New Secretary Troy had tried all manner of ways after his birthday party to ask Emelie out or Invite her to dinner, only for her to refuse every single time.

In the end. Troy knew Emelie was set on her decision and gave up on her. He was a playboy, after all, and it was no fun being given the cold shoulder so many times.

When Emelie went shopping for groceries the other day, she happened to see Troy out with an influencer. Troy pretended not to see Emelie and got into the influencer's car. Just like that, Emelie was no longer in contact with Troy.

Without Troy, Emelie grew more distant from William's circle and naturally did not know what transpired.

Mona sat on Emelie's dressing table and said, "One of my colleagues hang out with those people often and heard someone talking about how Mr. Middleton Senior had secretly sent Daphne away because he didn't like her.

"He wouldn't even tell William where she was. Consequently, William's been really grumpy." Emelie had no idea this had happened. After a long while, she replied, "Is that so?" Honestly, it wasn't too surprising.

Henry was still influential and powerful enough. William must've crossed his line the other day when he said he'd marry Daphne, so Henry took drastic measures.

"There's more! Guess what? William hired a new secretary afterward. She's a fresh graduate and is even a ballet dancer. They go everywhere together, just like how William did with Daphne," Mona said as she shook her head.

She continued, "I think William's doing this just to piss off his father. A sort of "You can try sending Daphne away all you like, but I can always find someone like her to stay by my side. You know, the fresh graduates are everywhere nowadays attitude." Emelie was silent for several seconds before saying, "What William does has nothing to do with me." She wiped away the messed-up eyeliner and redrew it. She then put on slipstick and took her handbag. "I'll be off now. I probably won't be back for dinner tonight." Mona made an encouraging gesture and said, "Best of luck!" Emelie grinned and left the house.

She was meeting one of the two companies' human resources representatives today to discuss her potential employment.

Emelie and the representative spent hours talking. It was a very pleasant conversation overall. Around dinnertime, the representative invited Emelie for dinner, and she accepted. So they went to a restaurant.

They'd just sat at a table near the window when they saw the restaurant manager rushing downstairs to greet a group of customers at the door. Flanked by two waiters, the manager had his best smile on.

The group of customers seemed especially important.

Emelie looked outside just in tto see William.

He was clearly there to have a business meeting over dinner. All the people around him were dressed in suits and business wear. They were swiftly led upstairs by the manager, Emelie even noticed a stranger by William's side-a young girl who looked to be in her early 20s.

She looked incredibly naïve even though she was wearing a proper work outfit. Her figure was nice, and she had an innocent, clueless expression as she followed behind William.

She must be the ballet dancer-cum-secretary that Mona was talking about earlier.

William hadn't noticed Emelie and the HR representative. He went upstairs with his clients.

Emelle then looked away.

The representative said with a smile, “Ah, so it was Mr. Middleton. By the way, there's still a week before.

your contract with Cloudex Corporation ends, isn't that right, Ms. Hoven?"
