William’s eyes narrowed slightly as he picked up his phone and dialed Ashton. “Is Sophie’s assistant still watching over Emelie’s mother?” he inquired. 

Ashton confirmed, “Yes, they’re scheduled to continue until tomorrow.” 

“Have the legal department prepare a contract,” William instructed

Emilie asked a maid where breakfast was served, and she was directed to the villa’s dining room. She ordered a plate of pancakes and was just about to hand the menu back weiter when a casually dressed William took a seat across from her. 

“Order one for me too,” he requested casually. 

Emelie complied. She noticed his subdued mood, perhaps due to the morning’s events. After a moment’s thought, she asked, “Why not get a little more sleep, Mr. Middleton? You were up late last night,” 

“Someone kept me from getting any rest, William replied. He poured himself a glass of water. 

“In that case, what not go back to sleep after eating, or take a nap at moon? Emelie suggested. 

William’s eyes met hers as he asked, “Will you join me for a nap 

Emelie maintained her composure. She met his gaze evenly. “If I feel sleepy at noon, 1 might.” 

William didn’t avert his gaze. He just kept looking at her Emelie met his gaze calmly, without any hint of submission, 

Suddenly, William inquired, “How’s your mother after yesterday’s hospital visit? 

“She’s awake,” Emelie said with a smile. She was unable to conceal her joy. “The doctor said her body functions are improving, thanks to the doctor Mr. Middleton arranged.” William nodded slightly. “Check your email” 

“Email? What’s going on? Emelle asked as she took out her phone and logged into her email she had just seen the new email subject–Cloudex Corporation Labor Contract Before she could react, William took a sip of water and casually said, “The legal department should have sent you the contract. If everything looks fine, you may go ahead and sign 

Emelie’s expression was changed dramatically! Signing a contract her eyes flickered. 

Williamsat across from her. He quietly looked at her. Emelle pursed her lips and opened the document 

She quickly scanned through it until she reached the line about the duration. Then, she couldn’t help but blurt out, “Ten years?” 

He wanted her to sign a ten–year labor contract. In these ten years, she couldn’t resign, couldn’t switch jobs, and couldn’t engage with other companies. Otherwise, she would have to bear a huge penalty. 

She looked at William in astonishment. 

“Why are you so surprised? It’s not like I’m asking you to work for me for free for ten years,” William said, his lips curling slightly 

Emelie immediately Lightened her lips. She felt that there were other implications in his words, especially the words “work for me“, 

“Your annual salary, I’ll increase it by 25 percent, and it’ll increase by five percent each year thereafter. This salary is not low. What else are you unsatisfied with? William calmly stated 

She was dissatisfied with everything. Emelle gripped her phone tightly, blinking rapidly. 

She hadn’t expected William to suddenly want her to sign a contract… Did she reveal a flaw somewhere? 

Emelie couldn’t believe William wanted her to work for him for a whole decade, especially considering her last labor contract was only for three years. 

Being around him for ten days was already challenging enough, let alone imagining what ten years of working for him would be likel 

She outright stated, “I don’t accept this contract. Do you even realize what ten years means? There’s no way I can agree to this. Mr. Middleton, you’re being unreasonable!” William raised an eyebrow. “Given your capabilities, even if I were to give you ten years, you wouldn’t be able to arrange for a medical team of this caliber to fly in from Lables to perform surgery on your mother. So, if I ask you to work for me for ten years, am I being unreasonable? 

“1..” Emese was at a loss for words. 

Setting down his cup, William leaned closer. His tone was lower with a hint of danger. 

cperhaps you can tell me, how long did you originally plan to stay by my side? Just like last time, three years? Or maybe.. three days? 

The critical 72 hours after Greta’s surgery coincided perfectly with three days 

Willam’s suspicions were indeed valid. 

Emelie looked at him. There was a hint of intrigue in William’s deep gaze, stemming from his unexpected realization that she dared to play tricks on him. His gaze grew more Intense
