Chapter 51 You’ll Have to Marry Her
Samuel drove for a while and dropped Emelie off at Cloudex. She got out of the car with the taco and waved him goodbye.”
At the same time, Jayden, who had come to see William at Cloudex, witnessed the scene. He raised an eyebrow and went into the building first..
It was common for him to visit William, so there was no need to go to the reception. He went straight upstairs and knocked on the door.
“Come in,” William said.
Only then did Jayden push the door open.
William glanced up at him. “Take a seat.” He was still reviewing a document.
Jayden made himself at home.
He brewed himself a cup of coffee using William’s coffee machine and took a sip before casually saying. Ms. Hoven seems to be very popular. After Troy, there comes Samuel.
“I saw Samuel dropping her off downstairs. Since when did they know each other?”
Frowning, William raised his head.
Jayden hinted meaningfully, “But Ms. Hoven does fit Samuel’s preferences.”
Samuel might appear to be a refined gentleman, but his aesthetic preferences were rather strange. He preferred slender waists, and Emelie’s figure fit the bill perfectly.
William took a sip of his coffee. It had already turned cold, just like his expression.
Jayden spoke slowly. “I’ve been saying that many people want Ms. Hoven, but you didn’t believe me.”
It was precisely at this moment that Emelie knocked on the door of the CEO’s office.
Upon William’s emotionless “come in“, Emelie entered. Seeing Jayden there, she politely greeted him, Mr. Gleamfield.”
Jayden nodded.
Emelie walked up to William. “Mr. Middleton, I found a candidate who meets the requirements according to your request. This is her resume.”
However, William was looking at her.
Emelie always wore office attire–a white shirt and a skirt–when she went to work. The shirt was tucked Into the skirt, highlighting her slender waist.
The shirt was both formal and not. It was restraining yet accentuating. She wore this outfit when she met Samuel. No wonder she piqued his interest.
William loosened his tie slightly, feeling his rage rising.
Emelle didn’t know what he was thinking. “Mr. Middleton?”
His voice was cold as he said, “You found a candidate after I mentioned it only this morning. You’re very efficient, Ms. Hovén.”
Emelle inaintained her composure. “It’s what I should do.”
William opened the resume and saw Melanie’s profile. He raised an eyebrow. “Is this the candidate you’ve
found for me?”
Since Jayden wasn’t an outsider, Emelie spoke frankly.
“She fits your requirements perfectly. She has an innocent look, likes to depend on others, and, most importantly, she’s compatible with you socially.
“If you decide to pursue a relationship with her, I believe your father wouldn’t object. It’s a win–win
situation.”
He asked her to find a secretary for him, but she found a life partner for him instead.
William closed the resume. His feelings were hard to discern from his expression.
Emelie wasn’t sure what he meant. “Are you not satisfied? If that’s the case, I can find someone else.”
I
“You personally found her. How could I not be satisfied? It’s settled,” William said, throwing the resume
aside.
Emelie hadn’t expected him to agree so easily, but it was better this way. It saved her the trouble of finding someone else.
She felt a bit guilty about doing this kind of “pimping” business. It made her feel like she was ruining a good girl for him, even though Melanie was overjoyed.
Emelie nodded. “Alright, I’ll inform Ms. Swanson.” Then, she left the room.
Jayden glanced at the door. “Ms. Hoven came back to work?”
“Of course.”
She had never really intended to leave him. She was just being stubborn.
Now that Daphne was gone, and he had given her a way out, she naturally returned.
Jayden glanced at the resume again. “What’s the deal with this?”
“It’s so considerate of her to find me a woman. How could I refuse?”
“That sounds like words spoken in a fit of pique.” Jayden laughed.
William remained expressionless.
Jayden looked at the photo on the resume again. As a good friend, he reminded William, “If you touch a Swanson, you’ll have to marry her.”
