Chapter 499 Micah walked out of the Wheeler residence in high spirits.
Michael had gone to the hospital to check on Shelly. Before he entered the ward, he was stopped by Erica.
He frowned and looked at Erica in silence.
Erica's eyes were red. Her head was still bandaged, and she was wearing a hospital gown. Her face was pale, and she asked faintly, 'Do you really have to be so heartless?'l Michael thought that she was talking about the divorce, so he answered, "You don't love me. We don't have to torture each other anymore." Tears welled up in Erica's eyes as she said aggrievedly, "I agree to the divorce. Can you... help the Wheeler family?" She actually wanted to ask if he could let the Wheeler family off, but she becgreedy.
Michael expected this, and he said emotionlessly, "Erica, | have nothing now. The Flouder family has nothing to do withanymore. | can't help you now." Erica held her breath and said in disbelief, "You can't really...” "That's right. | have handed everything to Micah. | have nothing now." Erica turned even paler. "No wonder..." Michael frowned and looked at her strangely.
Erica stared at Michael with bloodshot eyes and could not help but say, Well done! | really didn't expect you to be so ruthless. You actually did it..." Michael lowered his eyes and said calmly, "Perhaps you've never understoodat all.” Erica was stunned, and then she said, "Let's go." Michael looked at her feeling puzzled.
"Didn't you say you wanted a divorce? Let's go. Let's do it now." Erica turned around and left.
Michael looked at her suspiciously. He could not believe that she had suddenly agreed.
He hesitated for a moment and followed her. Michael was wary. He had a feeling that Erica would not divorce him so easily.

He said, 'Erica, finally you have done something decent." Erica's expression turned ugly. She looked at him coldly and turned to leave.
At this moment, Michael's phone rang. He looked and saw that it was Micah.
He answered the call and heard Micah's smug voice. "Michael, congratulations on being single again!" Michael was stunned. He seemed to have cleared the doubts he had earlier. He asked, "What did you do?" "| went to the Wheeler family and threatened them! How is it? Is it that difficult to get a divorce? It's really easy, isn't it?" Micah replied.
Michael was speechless, but he had to admit that Micah’s move was indeed effective.
However, he would not thank Micah. He ended the call immediately.
However, in less than two seconds, the phone rang again. It was Micah again. Michael answered and said angrily, "What do you want? Are you waiting forto praise you and be very thankful?" ‘That'll be great!" Micah's tone was still very smug. Then, he said, "Cover. My wife has prepared a good meal to celebrate your divorce.
"Oh yes, where's your precious daughter? Is she not acknowledging you as her father who has nothing? Don't be discouraged. You're still young and potent. I'll arrange a blind date for you later! "If Shelly still acknowledges you as her father, bring her back for the meal. If not, forget about it." "You are so annoying!" Michael roared angrily and ended the call.
Actually, he knew that Micah didn't have a good impression of Erica. Michael remembered that when Shelly was young, Micah would still play with her a little. Later on, when Shelly got close to the Wheeler family, Micah did not have any more interaction with her.
Although he was a little angry with Micah's words, Michael still went to the hospital to fetch Shelly to the Flouder residence.
In the Flouder residence, Shermaine Flouder smelled the fragrance coming from the kitchen and lay listlessly on the couch. She asked Micah who was beside her, Dad, did you really invite Shelly to have a meal with us? I really can't stand her." Micah was still immersed in his joy of having the upper hand. Then he said, "She might not come. What if she leaves with her mother?" Shermaine thought for a moment. "That's true." With that, she looked down at her tablet again.
"What are you looking at?" Micah leaned over.
' Look, it's an embroidery with a unique design. | just found a new blogger who does embroidery. Moreover, the things she designs are very special. Although you can see that her foundation is average, she has creativity.
Shermaine replied.
Micah leaned over to take a look and said, "Wow! What a delicate classical beauty! Shermaine, | didn't expect you to be a delicate classical beauty at heart." Shermaine rolled her eyes. "I love design. It's not like you don't know that this has nothing to do with looks." Linda Yarrows walked out with sdishes and scoffed. "What classical beauty? Micah, you want a divorce too?" Micah laughed. "Honey, don't joke like that! You are the best wife in the whole world. Michael has totally lost toin this aspect." Linda glared at him, smiled, and went back into the kitchen.
Shermaine said, 'That's true. Dad, you are really better than Uncle at choosing a good wife.’ "Of course!" Micah said proudly. Then, he burst into laughter. "Shermaine, what's the nof this blogger?" ' Elodia Hudson,' Shermaine said. Then, she remarked, Why would anyone have such a name?" She could not help but shake her head.
As they were talking, the door opened, and Michael and Shelly entered.
Shelly had changed out of her hospital gown. She was wearing a loose-fitting casual outfit.
Shermaine looked up and secretly clicked her tongue. Her cousin has dressed quite casually today. She usually dressed like a princess.
She greeted Michael and looked at her tablet again, totally ignoring Shelly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShelly sat quietly on the couch. Her face was very pale, and she was very thin. Despite her physique, for sreason, she did not look as weak as before. Instead, she looked more energetic.
Micah could not help but take a few more glances at Shelly. He asked Michael, "What's wrong with Shelly? Is she not feeling well?" | Shelly was stunned. Her entire body tensed up, but she quickly regained her composure.
Michael glanced at her and said to Micah, "Something happened. I'll tell you later." Micah did not probe further.
After the meal, the atmosphere among the family members becmore lively. Michael said, "Frieda will definitely cause more trouble later. If she comes over, you don't have to be polite. If you are polite, she'll push her luck.' Micah laughed disdainfully. "Am I the kind who'll be polite? Do you think I'm you?" He looked at Shelly and said, "That's strange. You say that in front of Shelly. Aren't you afraid that she will complain to the Wheeler family?" Shelly's face turned pale.
She looked up at Micah.
Michael patted Shelly's shoulder and comforted her silently.
"Let’s go to the study. I still have something to discuss with you." Michael stood up.
Micah stood up and followed.
Shelly lowered her head. She knew that her father was going to talk about Jerico Chancely.
In the study, Michael's expression turned grave as he recounted Shelly's ordeal.
Micah was stunned for two seconds. Then, he slammed the table and stood up. "What? This is really disgusting.
They're too much! Do they think our Flouder family is weak? "They still want to be spared after bullying our family? Damn them! We must retaliate and let them suffer. They need to be taught a lesson!" Micah's face was ashen. He paced back and forth behind the table with his hands on his hips.
Michael looked at him without saying anything.
Outside the study, Shelly lowered her head. Her tears fell drop by drop, making clear sounds as they touched the marble floor.
