Chapter 644 How Did You Take It Off? Emelie calmly said, "Let's save the reminiscing for another day. Let's get down to business. I can help Mr. Middleton clarify to the media that the video is fake. On top of that, I can also give all four of you a big gift that would solve your urgent problem, turning your dire situation into a blessing," "Huh?" Charles wondered how she was about to bless them.
Emelie didn't take a sip of her drink. She merely played with the cup for a moment before setting it down. Meanwhile, Jodie took a contract out of her briefcase and placed it on the tiny table.
Emelie said, "The Xanther Group's collaboration with the Aurora Group has fallen through. If you can't find a capital of the Aurora Group's scale to continue funding the Xanther Group, your burden will becheavier." With a grin that didn't reach his eyes, Charles replied, "No one knows better than you why the Aurora Group stopped cooperating with the Xanther Group." Emelie looked up, her calm demeanor giving an air of composure. "The Filo Group is also interested in the newable energy sector. We can help the Xanther Group with this." "What are you saying?" Bryan stared at her. "The Filo Group wants to cooperate with the Xanther Group to replace the Aurora Group?" Emelie nodded.

Yet she was offering to invest in them. Who would accept such an offer? She had to be scheming against them.
Emelie didn't try to hide it or pretend.
She picked up the contract and tossed it in front of them. "Do you have any other choice?" She was employing an open strategy, one where they knew she was setting a trap, and she knew they knew she had set a trap. However, they had no other choice but to take the bait.
If what had transpired at the funeral hall hadn't happened, they could have taken their time. They could possibly find another investor of the Aurora Group's scale.
However, public opinion was driving the Xanther Group's stock price down, affecting the Cloudex Corporation, the Swanson Corporation, the Davis Group, and the Collins Corporation.
They needed to announce sgood news immediately to regain investor confidence, and a partnership with the Faldorian Filo Group was the best PR move.
William's gaze was fixated on Emelie, while the other three exchanged glances.
Beathan, who was rarely ever cornered by others, had a cold look in his eyes. "The online uproar was partly fueled by your efforts, wasn't it?" Emelie replied, "As a lawyer, you should know that you need evidence for such claims." As they spoke, William picked up the contract, noticing the non the last page.

You're truly worthy of being the sole heir of the Middleton family, Mr. Middleton." She shook her head and added, "Vanessa and that sister of yours, Xenia, can't compare to you." William gently replied, "You've changed a lot over the years." "Is that so?" Emelie was intrigued. Like old friends who hadn't seen each other in years, they started chatting casually. "Have I grown older or gained weight?" William shook his head. "The worry between your brows is gone." Emelie raised an eyebrow. "I don't understand what that means, but I'll take it as a compliment, Mr. Middleton."
For sreason, William suddenly cleared his throat. Charles handed him a drink, but he reached for a pen instead. With that, he signed his non the document. The other three men were stunned, especially Charles. "Mr. Middleton!" William pursed his lips and extended his hand to Emelie. "I look forward to working with you."
Emelie looked at his hand. With a small smile, she shook it. "It will be a pleasure working together. However, when she was about to withdraw her hand, William suddenly tightened his grip. He asked with a hoarse voice, "How did you take the ring off?"
It was absolutely impossible to remove an Eros ring while she was still alive. That was why he thought N the bride wearing the ring that day was her. William pondered about how she took it off for days. The weather was cold, and Emelie's hands were gloved, hiding her fingers. She shot a small smile at William.
As their gazes met, William's eyes turned a little bloodshot. "Tell me. How did you take it off?" X
