Chapter 29
Troy Called Daphne Mrs. Middleton
When Emelie finished taking her IV drip, the nurse pulled the needle out of her hand. Emelle then texted
Mona a reply.
Mona had gone back to work right after last night. It was difficult for an employee like her to get leave.
Emelie informed Mona that she was alright and that she would be heading home now. But in truth, Emelie still wanted to take a nap. Since the nurse did
Emelie slept until midday when a call woke her up. “Who is this?”
The caller sounded grumpy. “It’s me, Emelie. Why do you always ask me who I am whenever I call? Didn’t you save my number?”
“Mr. Spencer?”
“Yeah!”
“Apologies, Mr. Spencer. I didn’t save your number in time,” Emelie replied.
“Oh well. It’s no big deal to me. Just remember to next time. Troy was very interested in Emelie. He
continued, “By the way, you can add me on social media with the same phone number. We can text
whenever you’re free.”
“Alright. May I know why you are calling, Mr. Spencer?” Emelie asked.
“Nothing much. I just wanted to check up on you after last night. You drank so much. Are you feeling
better now?”
“Yes, thank you. I’m okay now.”
“Why don’t we grab lunch together? I’ll come and pick you up right now,” Troy offered.
After Troy had helped Emelie last night, she found herself unable to refuse. “Let this be my treat, Mr.
Spencer.”
“Sure.”
Emelie left the hospital after hanging up. She went to buy a new set of clothes from a local department store and changed into it. She even washed up in the public restroom.
With Emelie’s good looks and fair skin, all she needed was some lipstick to look good.
However, she never expected to see William and Daphne at the same restaurant she and Troy went to for
lunch.
William had already changed, into a different suit. He’d likely gone to the office for work right after leaving the hospital before coming out for lunch with D
Emelie and Troy were sitting in the corner of the restaurant. Emelie wanted to ignore William and Daphne,
but Troy was already waving at them. “Will!”
Troy Called Daphne Mr. Middleton
William glanced at Troy and Emelle for a moment. His expression grow cold as he walked over.
Troy said with a smile, “What a coincidence to run into you guys here! Are you two having lunch? So are Emelle and I. Why don’t we sit together?”
And so, William sat down right across from Emelle. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Emelie greeted, “Mr. Middleton.”
William responded flatly. “What a busy schedule you have, going on a date the moment you got discharged from the hospital.”
Emelle retorted, “I’m afraid I have no idea what you mean.”
Daphne sat down beside Emelie and glanced at both her and Troy. She then said with a smile, “I thought I’d mistaken Mr. Spencer when he’d made that
Emelie immediately realized that Troy must’ve posted something online about her without her knowledge.
Troy said right away, “Of course it is. ver fool around, Mrs. Middleton.”
Daphne was taken aback by how Troy had addressed her. She bit her lip and glanced shyly at William before saying, “I envy you, Emelie. Mr. Spencer is so devo
William passed Daphne the menu. “Do you have a reason to be envious of others?”
Daphne blushed. “Of course I don’t. I know how kind you are to me, Mr. Middleton. I’m just happy Emelie
was able to find someone, too.”
Emelie looked down, avoiding eye contact with everyone else. “Ms. Bowen, if you’re unable to differentiate between bluffs and serious matters, I’m afraid
Daphne was struggling to respond when William cut in, saying, “Don’t worry. I’ll protect Daphne if she ever gets into trouble. Aren’t you about to resign, M need to trouble yourself with work. affairs anymore.”
Of course William would protect Daphne. Troy wouldn’t have called her Mrs. Middleton otherwise.
Emelie had been curious how William had introduced Daphne to his friends, and now she knew. He’d likely introduced Daphne as his girlfriend.
