Chapter 296 We Are Always Friends

As I sensed the warmth from Michael’s fingers, my heart skipped a beat. I gazed at him through teary eyes. Although he had already explained things earlier, I couldn’t help feeling aggrieved.

“Were you truly discussing the breach of contract with Emma?”

I stared at him uneasily. I felt truly unsettled because I had been betrayed once. Fear inundated me, and I was terrified that Michael would end up just like Justin.

“Don’t you believe me anymore?”

Surprisingly, Michael didn’t get up in arms in the face of my doubt. Mayhap he knew I was only feeling disquieted from my past.

“It’s not that I don’t believe you. I’m just afraid…”

I lowered my eyes. Truth be told, I particularly abhorred myself at that moment. I was wholly dependent on him at present that I might feel as though the sky had collapsed if he truly left me.

“As I said, I’ll never hurt you. Anna Garcia, you’re the only woman I love.”

Michael hugged me tightly again, his voice deep and beguiling. Inexplicably, I felt much more at ease then.

That night, he slept with me tightly in his arms. Perchance it was because he explained things to me that my reliance on him grew increasingly stronger.

When I woke up the next day, he was no longer beside me. I glanced at the time, only to see that it was already past nine in the morning. Ever since I got pregnant, I became increasingly fond of sleeping and would slumber for hours on end each time I intended to take a nap.

I truly felt that I was going to become a pig soon.

Subsequently, I cast a look at the date and realized that I should be going to the hospital for a checkup that day. Michael even reminded me about it two days ago and said he would accompany me for the prenatal checkup. However, I couldn’t quite bring myself to trouble him since he had been very much busy in the past few days.
