Winning Her Heart Back

Chapter 79 Seductive 

The dinner that was mentioned repeatedly was supposed to be the biggest banquet of the whole voyage. 

Everyone was expected to show 

Willians had set out a few fancy outils for Emelie to choose from, all hanging neatly on hangers. 

There was even a professional makeup team on standby 

But the more he fussed over her appearance, the more Emelle felt a sense of coldness creeping In. 

It was like she was being dolled up for some kind of high–stakes deal. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

She wasn’t 

In the mood and randomly picked one outfit. 

William was sitting on the couch, flipping through a magazine. 

He glanced over and remarked, “That one doesn’t go with that diamond necklace,” 

Suddenh, it all came back to her 

William had bought that diamond necklace at an auction last night and had suggested she wear it with a dress. 

Putting aside hers 

runease, Enelle chose a 

• a stylish gown with a sleek design. 

The gown, a subtle shade of light green, flowed elegantly to her ankles. 

It looked sophisticated and refined from the front, while the back revealed intricate cut–out patterns. 

It showed off just a hint of her shoulder blades and maintained a natural sense of allure. 

The stylist gently swept Emelie’s hair to one side. Then, she delicately placed the diamond necklace before applying makeup to give Emelic a fresh appearance. 

As the makeup artist pondered over which lipstick to choose for Emelie, a hand suddenly emerged from behind Emelie and reached for one of the lipsticks. 

The makeup artist stepped back 

Emelle looked up to see William’s reflection in the mirror. He had changed into a simple black suit, looking poised and refined. 

William carefully compared the lipstick shades against Emelle’s lips before deciding on a warm cinnamon color. 

He then took his time to apply it perfectly 

Emelle stayed still. She was taken aback by his unexpected skill in using his fingertips to blend the lipstick on the edges of her lips for a softer 

finish 

He had never applied lipstick to her before. Given her rare occasions of wearing makeup, his effortless expertise hinted at practice on someone else’s lips. 

Emelie could only Imagine one person who would have had him apply lipstick personally: Daphine. 

It also perfectly captured the essence of their pure love. 

After he was done applying the lipstick, Emelie thanked him and then proceeded to put on the pearl earrings. 

With her inherently cool demeanor, this refined ensemble truly showcased her best features, accentuating them to the fullest. 

Emelie eventually picked up a knitted shawl and wrapped it around herself. 

William came closer to assist, his hand gently guiding from her shoulder to her chin as if he might lean in for a kiss 

Instinctively, Emelle tumed her head away 

William’s voice turned solemn, “You never refused me before.” 

Emelie lowered her gaze. “Mr. Middleton, you know things are different now.” 

He wouldn’t have handed her over to another man before, either. 

William stared into her eyes. 

As Emelie walked past him toward the door, Jayden’s words echoed in William’s mind–she truly seemed to be considering resigning 

His eyes, naturally deep, now appeared even darker than the turbulent sea outside. 

As Emelie and William entered the banquet hall on the second floor, they attracted the attention of many guests. 

The attention they received stemmed not only from William’s prestigious status but also from Emelie herself. 

THE 

. Sedactive 

Rumors had already spread about Leon’s sudden disappearance earlier that afternoon. 

Some gossip suggested that he had made inappropriate advances toward William’s female companion, Emelie. 

As a result, Leon was expelled from the ship for angering William. 

So, Emelie was suddenly labeled as the one causing all the commotion. 

Emelie even overheard someone whisper, “She’s such a seductive one. No wonder even William, who usually steers clear of women, can’t 

resist her charm.” 

Emelie was rendered speechless. 

She wondered where this notion of her being seductive came from and why people assumed William was distant from women. 

Seeing Emelie’s expression, William smirked and picked up a cocktail from the table, teasingly offering it to her lips. “Feeling upset?” 

For Emelie, there was no need to feel upset over such a trivial matter. 

Emelic accepted the cocktail. She took a small sip and was careful not to drink too much. She needed to stay alert and ready to handle whatever came her way. 

As Elias walked toward them, she casually asked, “Why isn’t Mr. Gleamfield here this time?” 

William raised an eyebrow and quipped, “You’re missing him already?” 

Caught off guard by William’s remark, Emelie looked at him incredulously. 

Ellas had already approached them. Raising an eyebrow, he suddenly walked away. 

Emelie was even more confused. “Why did Mr. Undvike leave?” 

It was because her recent glance at William seemed too flirtatious. 

Emelie looked absolutely stunning tonight. Every smile and movement of hers was radiating grace. 

Thus, Elias chose to politely step away and let them enjoy their moment undisturbed. 

William also felt a slight flutter in his heart at the sight of her.
