Chapter 170 Thinking of Each Other Bryan sighed. "Meeting Michael was a mistake from the get-go. Bet he told you the sthing, huh?" Emily stared at the empty milk cup on the table, listening to Bryan's story about how he and Michael met, becfriends, and then enemies. It wasn't much different from Michael's version, but people always liked to make excuses for themselves.
For instance, Bryan thought he had a ton of pressure on him his family, the Watsons, his parents, and Mabel.
He seemed like the typical rich kid, the heir to a fortune, but Bryan would rather live a simple life, just chilling in peace.
Listening to this, Emily felt Bryan was a bit out of touch with reality.
She also knew the gap between the rich and the poor was like a walled city; the poor wanted in, and the rich wanted out.

Maybe these questions hit a nerve, or maybe Bryan just didn't know how to answer. He turned around, looking at the empty milk cup on the table, and frowned. "Maybe I should put ssleeping pills in your milk." Emily knew he was just annoyed by her talking too much and did it on purpose.
She smirked and continued. "I thought you didn't like to talk, but it turns out you're funnier than Michael when you joke. Alright, I'm going to sleep now. Thanks for lettingcrash here tonight. Don't worry, I won't tell Michael about these photos as a return favor." "What did you say? Emily and Bryan are together?" Hearing those two names together, Michael instantly lost it, and the invisible pressure exploded in his mind.
Abigail said, "I'm telling you this not to make you blEmily! She had nowhere to go after you left her, and she was seriously hurt, bleeding a lot. If I weren't out of town and couldn't get back in time, I wouldn't need you to find her! And now you're blaming her? You're worse than your cold-hearted friend! And Michael, I'm warning you, you'd better leave right now..." Before Abigail could finish, the line was already dead.
Michael almost bolted out of Emerald Lake Manor, ready to drive a new car to pick up Emily.
As for Abigail, she hung up the phone with a smug, gritted-teeth expression. "That bastard Michael! You never cared about Emily, so now it's your turn to worry!" Injured? How did Emily get hurt? Did she fall on a dark road? Or did she run into srobbers? The more Michael thought about it, the more anxious he became. He almost floored the gas pedal, speeding all the way.
To be honest, he was surprised himself.
When he got Abigail's call and heard all this, his first reaction wasn't to blEmily for being at Bryan's house. Instead, he wanted to know where she was hurt and how serious it was.
Michael couldn't help but wonder what kind of feelings he had for Emily. How did it gradually becdifferent from before? Ten minutes later, Michael arrived at Bryan's house.
What surprised him even more was that he didn't even need navigation to remember the route to Bryan's house, just like three years ago. He remembered the buildings, floors, and units by heart. It was too strange. Michael was furious; none of this should have happened.
At that moment, Emily was already getting ready for bed, but the urgent knocking on the door startled her to get up again.
Bryan also cout of the inner room, already in his pajamas, lazily glancing at Emily before going to open the door. Suddenly, Emily heard the door being slammed open.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMichael burst in, seeing Emily sitting alone on the sofa, and then noticing Bryan in his pajamas, he immediately becfurious and punched Bryan.
Bryan, of course, didn't have tto dodge and was thrown into the corner.
"Michael, what are you doing!" Seeing this, Emily hurriedly rushed forward and pulled Michael away. "Can't you talk things out? Is violence the only thing you know?" Seeing Emily, Michael immediately understood that Abigail had set him up.
Emily was perfectly fine, even surprisingly well. She looked radiant, seemingly getting along well with Bryan. Michael couldn't help but laugh at himself; he had been worried all the way for nothing.
Michael shouted, "Bryan, are you trying to get back at me? Three years ago, you didn't hurtenough! Now you're using my wife to hurtagain! What are your intentions? Do you believe I won't let you..." As he spoke, Michael raised his fist again, ready to punch Bryan in the face.
But Emily slapped him.
The scene froze instantly.
Emily frowned, tears in her eyes, looking at Michael with immense disappointment. "I thought you had changed, but you're still so unreasonable. What do you think we were doing? Having an affair?" With that, Emily pointed at the photos in the house and continued to Michael. "Look closely, these are all photos of you two. If you both miss each other's past, why pretend to be enemies? I really don't understand you two! If you know what's good for you, stop fighting!" With that, Emily walked up and closed the door.
