Winning Her Heart Back

Found Her 

Ellas gained no insight and was about to shut his computer when a woman behind him suddenly spoke, At that time, um, I think I heard that splashing sound.” 

The woman was talking to her friend softly, and it was unclear how William, who was several feet away, heard her. 

He quickly turned his head to look. 

“What did you hear?” His voice was slightly tense. 

The woman hesitated momentarily and then said, “At 8:30 pm, I went back to my room on the third floor to get something. 

“On my way back to the banquet hall, as I passed by a room, I inadvertently heard arguing inside. 

“There was also a splash sound. At the time, I also thought it sounded like something falling into the 

water.” 

William’s gaze sharpened. “Please take me to that room.” Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

The woman quickly agreed and led William to the room on the third floor. 

William immediately knocked on the door. 

A man with a bruised face opened the door, looking extremely surprised to see William. “Mr. Middleton, you…” 

William glanced into the room. The chairs were overturned, and it was a mess, 

He didn’t beat around the bush and asked about the splashing sound, 

The man dared not hide anything and confessed that he and his wife quarreled tonight, which escalated into a fight. 

In a fit of anger, his wife threw a flowerpot at him. He dodged, and the flowerpot flew out the window and into the sea. 

In other words, the splash sound was from the flowerpot instead of Emelie. 

William closed his eyes briefly. 

Elias felt inexplicably relieved, as if he had been holding his breath all this time. 

Was he worried about Emelie? 

After confirming the details, William immediately walked away. 

“Bring back half of the search team from the sea. Emelie is still on the ship. Search the cabins.” 

Elias promptly went to carry out the order. 

William walked alone in the corridor. 

He pondered. If Emelie hadn’t fallen into the sea, she must still be on the ship. 

With such a commotion, she would’ve come out if she were conscious. 

Considering her unsteady state in the surveillance footage, she might be unconscious somewhere now. 

No. The security team had already searched the public areas once. 

She would have been found if she were unconscious. That was unless she was taken into a room by 

someone. 

William suddenly stopped in his tracks, and realization dawned on him. 

His eyes lifted, revealing a dark abyss within. 

He asked the person following him, “Where is Mr. Samuel’s room?” 

“He’s also on the third floor; in the first room.” 

William hurried over. 

Everyone on the ship knew Emelie was suspected of falling into the water. 

Samuel was so concerned about her, yet he hadn’t appeared until now. 

Something wasn’t right. 

William rang the doorbell when he reached the door. 

However, no one answered. 

He pressed the doorbell three more times. Just as his patience was about to run out, the door finally opened. 

The person who opened the door was Samuel. 

He was wearing a white bathrobe, as if he had just taken a shower, with a lingering scent of moisture. He was busy wiping his short hair. 

Upon seeing him like this, William’s expression became even more unpleasant. 

Samuel wasn’t wearing glasses and asked with a smile, “Mr. Middleton? Why are you here? Is there 

something you need?” 

“Emelie is here with you, right?” It was no longer a question but a statement. 

Samuel paused for a moment, then nodded with a smile. “Yes.” 

William’s jaw tightened, and he walked straight into the room. 

His gaze swept around. There was no one in the living room or the dining room. 

He headed toward the bedroom. 

Samuel intercepted him with an unpleasant expression.

“Mr. Middleton, it seems you don’t have the right to barge into my room without permission.” 

William ignored him and pushed open the partially closed door. 

Then, he saw Emelie. 

She was sitting on the large bed, wearing a white bathrobe and slightly damp hair.
