Chapter 171 Ewan cautiously glanced at the end of the alley. “Who's there?” Panicking, | quickly turned around to hide. But suddenly, someone covered my mouth and draggedinto a store next to the alley.
“Told you you'd regret marrying Steven,” Michael's voice cfrom behind me.
| was slightly startled. Then, | frowned and stared at him warily, anything better to do, Mr. Ford?” “Don’t you have “I'm just passing by,” Michael said in a playful tone as he took a mango-flavored lollipop from the shelf and handed it to me.
He probably mistookfor Stephanie again. He knew that Stephanie had a low blood sugar issue, so he thought that I'd need a lollipop like Stephanie too.
But ironically, he wasn’t aware that Stephanie was allergic to mangoes.
“Are you mistakingfor someone else, Mr. Ford?” | asked in a low tone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMichael remained silent.
“Don’t you know that Stephanie Carlson was allergic to mangoes, Mr. Ford?” | sneered.
Then, | walked past him without taking the lollipop.
Meanwhile, Michael stood frozen for quite stime. But suddenly, he walked towardand grabbed my wrist.
“I'm asking you to divorce Steven for your own good,” he said.
Then, he quickly draggedto his car and shovedinside.
Soon, Ewan cout of the alley and got into a car.
Michael then started following Ewan’s car.
“The Lincolns have been cleaning up Steven’s mess over the years. And whenever Steven got into trouble, Ewan was the one who settled it for him. That's why he met Howard today.” Michael solemnly said.
Then, he continued, “Since Stephie gave you the keys to her house and confided in you so much... she must have seen you as her closest friend. That's why | can’t let anything happen to you.’ | couldn’t help but chuckle. Michael was putting up the nice guy act again.
Chatter 171 2/3 “You can't let anything happen to me? | don’t think we're that close, Mr. Ford.” | said skeptically, “Stephanie grew up with you, and you failed to protect her. But now you're trying to protect me?” Thanks, but no thanks.
Michael's grip on the steering wheel tightened, and the back of his hand turned pale as his veins bulged, betraying his hidden tension.
“Actually, Michael, I'm quite curious. Stephanie was head over heels in love with you. So, how could you be so cruel to her? Didn't it even hurt you a bit? Would you be so cruel to a dog that you've raised for many years?” | was asking from a bystander’s perspective.
After all, my heart had gradually found peace, so | was no longer affected by the past.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, Michael simply remained silent as we continued to follow Ewan'’s car.
“I...” After a long silence, Michael said in a low voice, “I loved her.” What did he say? I didn’t catch it.
“I loved her so much.” Michael's voice was quivering. “But... | wasn’t the one she loved. She stayed without of obligation. Someone else had her heart.” | was stunned as | glared at Michael, fuming with rage.
Stephanie was already dead, yet here he was trying to shift the blonto her! Was he even human? He continued, “She was someone who felt obligated to repay her debts. | wanted to set her free, but | couldn't bear to let her go. And | knew that she would leave one day... but | never expected her to die so soon.” “Ha...” | found Michael rather pathetic. How could he make up such a ridiculous lie at a tlike this? “Your love was such a joke. Stephanie loved you for ten years because you told her that you liked her.” | sneered.
Michael's expression grew complex. He then cast a sidelong glance atand asked, “Did Stephanie tell you she was in love withfor ten years?” | frowned and ignored him.
Chapter 171 Michael seemed like he had something to say, but he hesitated, and his gaze simply lingered on me.
We stayed silent until Ewan’s car halted in an old alley.
Michael then parked his car and accompaniedout before we discreetly followed behind Ewan.
