Chapter 743 She Didn't Want Him to Die That Badly Those words took Emelie and William back to that night on the cliff.

Emelie fled to the cliff in what seemed like a desperate move. However, it was all part of their plan. There were people below that were waiting to catch her, so her jump was supposed to be practically risk-free.

Nonetheless, she hadn't expected William to jump after her.

She had just landed safely in the net. But before she could get out of the net, she heard someone shout, "Eme!" Then, another voice yelled, "Will!" She quickly looked up.

In the pitch-black night, she saw someone rushing toward her recklessly.

Her eyes widened.

The people waiting below noticed the imminent danger. "Oh no! He's jumped too far!" Thewouldn't be able to catch him. Although William's body hit the net, his body rolled off because it was too close to the edge. He was about to plunge into the abyss below.

Emelie's body reacted faster than her mind. She lunged forward and grabbed William's hand.

William's body dangled over the steep cliff, held up only by her grasp. This was the closest he had ever cto death.

Beneath him was a bottomless chasm. From within that chasm, he looked up.

He saw Emelie's pale face. He couldn't tell if it was because of fear, tension, or the chilly mountain wind that cut to the bone.

Above her head, he saw the crescent moon in the sky.

Suddenly, he smiled. He smiled because it turned out she didn't want him dead that badly. After all, she had reached out to save him.

He called, "Eme." Emelie's team quickly pulled William up. Together, they hid in a crevice in the mountainside, out of sight from the flashlights above.

Emelie leaned against the rocky wall, breathing heavily. Given their close encounter with death, her limbs were numb. She fixed her stare at William across from her.

She wasn't the only one staring. Everyone present, including Jodie, was looking at William. Their gazes were different from usual. They were filled with shock, surprise, admiration, and respect.

He hadn't known that they were prepared. He jumped because he was willing to die with Emelie.

The silence in the mountain cave lasted a long tuntil William finally moved closer to Emelie and took her hand. Both their palms were cold.

He whispered, "Thank God it was fake." Emelie turned her head away, not responding to his comment.

Instead, she asked, "Aren't you curious about what will happen to your other partner?" William made a guess. "You've trapped him in Capebatt City, and he can't leave." Emelie smirked. "Didn't you say I wasn't his match? What about now?" The two of them were an odd pair, neither entering the bedroom nor heading downstairs. They stood in the doorway, leaning against opposite sides of the frame, talking face to face.

William remarked, "I'm getting increasingly curious about how you plan to deal within the future." Emelie smiled faintly.

William lowered his voice. "That night, you shouldn't have pulledup. You should've letfall. If I had died, wouldn't you have had your revenge?" When Emelie remained silent, and he chuckled. "At that moment, I really thought that dying with you wouldn't be such a bad end for me."

Finally, Emelie coldly replied, "Dying together? Forget it. I'd eon tit. I'd cback as a ghost if that happened. I wouldn't be able to rest in peace." William was used to her cold sarcasm, so he didn't mind her remark. "Did Felix say how Frankie died? Who was behind it?" Emelie wasn't obligated to tell him.

William's tone softened. "Can't you satisfy my curiosity, at least as a favor for saving you that night?" He was referring to when he had arrived just in tto stop a thug from attacking her from behind.

Emelie looked up at him. "The driver refuses to talk, but the very fact that he's not talking proves that they were the ones who did it. The police will get it out of him eventually. It's just a matter of time." William asked again, "And the mastermind?"

Emelie's expression suddenly turned mysterious. "We've plans to take care of the mastermind. She's abroad now, so the police can't catch her. Don't worry though, I have a way to bring her back." William frowned slightly. "Who is it?" Emelie slowly replied, "An old acquaintance." There was something strange in her voice that made William feel uneasy. "Is she someone I know?" Emelie's smile widened. "Of course. You're the one who sent her abroad, Mr. Middleton." RULE #1 choose married women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
