Winning Her Heart Back

 Her Other Identity

Natalie's subordinate said nervously, "They've now escaped to Barolo, with many curious netizens following them. Mrs. Russo, should we continue our pursuit?"

At this point, they should relent. Any further action could quickly expose them.

However, Natalie was unwilling to let go. She couldn't bear to miss such a golden opportunity.

For once, neither William nor Emelie had any protection. This was the moment when they were most vulnerable. In the past, they had been untouchable, and any attempts to strike them were futile.

Moreover, Natalie had just discovered that Emelie might have another identity.

If Emelie really was... Then Natalie could absolutely not let her return to the Filo family.

Amelia's will had stipulated that, if Emelie returned with that identity, she would instantly inherit a significant share of the family's assets. At that point, Cronus would be even more powerful, further securing his position as the head of the family.

Additionally, William and Beathan had to be killed as part of their agreement.

If neither of these tasks was accomplished, and Emelie and William returned to their respective positions, it would be their turn to face retribution.

Therefore, Emelie and William had to die. They absolutely had to die.

Natalie made up her mind. "Continue the pursuit."

The subordinate hesitated. 'Mrs. Russo, if we're exposed..."

Natalie grabbed a glass and smashed it furiously. "Can't you be a little more careful? After all these years, do I still need to teach you how to kill two people? Move quickly!"

The subordinate was frightened and hurriedly agreed. Then, he rushed out of the room.

Natalie gripped the edge of the table with both of her hands. She looked up at the computer screen where Emelie and William were displayed.

A cold, sinister smile spread across her face. Once Emelie was dead, Cronus would be next.

She was determined to secure the Filo family inheritance. She would become the second female head of the Filo family after Amelia.

Meanwhile, after evading multiple assassination attempts and switching through various modes of transportation, Emelie and William finally arrived in Mylen.

Emelie entered a bakery while William kept watch outside. She bought about six loaves of bread and grabbed two bottles of drinks. Then, she went to pay for them.

The cashier scanned the items and casually glanced up. When he saw Emelie, he thought that she resembled the now-famous figure from the internet, so he took a few more glances at her.

Emelie remained calm and even flashed him a smile. Her natural and composed demeanor made it hard to believe that she was a wanted fugitive.

The cashier hesitated and was unsure of his suspicions.

After Emelie paid, she quickly left the store and signaled William to hurry up.

The pair, which was a tall man and a shorter woman, matched the descriptions perfectly.

The cashier immediately shouted, 'It's them! The runaway duo!"

Emelie and William instinctively took off running. They had been on the run for three days now.

Emelie couldn't help but laugh. "The runaway duo? Is that what they're calling us now? Who came up with

that?"Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

William glanced back. Fortunately, no one was following.

He pulled Emelie into a narrow alley.

The alley was tight, with both of them standing face-to-face, each leaning against a wall.

Emelie handed William a bottle of drink and a loaf of bread.

As William took the bread, he also grabbed her hand.

Emelie responded with a "Hmm?' as she looked at him.

William hadn't shaved in days. His chin was covered in a stubble, making him look far more rugged and disheveled than his usual polished self.

Still, he had a good face. Even in his rough state, it was hard for him to look bad. The stubble gave him a tougher appearance. Maybe he'd look good with a buzz cut too.

Emelie let out another questioning "Hmm?"

William's dark eyes fixed on her as he suddenly exposed her true intentions. "You did it on purpose."
