Chapter 452 Do Not Like To Be Questioned

Having heard my words, Michael gave me a frosty stare and responded with an angry tone, “I just want you to get some proper rest. Anna, why must you think that everyone has an agenda? In this whole wide world, I’m the only person that won’t harm you. As you are my woman, protecting you is the only thing I care about.”

Knitting my brows tightly, I didn’t believe his words at all. By claiming that he would be the last person in the world to hurt me, has he forgotten about what happened in the past? Has he forgotten how much he hurt me then?

Even though I was tempted to sneer at him, I wasn’t in the mood to hold him accountable for the past. I just wanted bygones to be bygones, as bringing them up only reminded me of my sorrow.

“From my perspective, you’re the one that has hurt me the most in this world. Michael, I really hate it when you get involved in my affairs. I have my own life and job. What gives you the right to interfere in my work?” I retorted in anger.

Ignoring Michael, I began to put on my clothes.

Given that none of my clothes were available, I had no choice but to wear the outfit from the night before.

Michael frowned at me without saying a word. Nonetheless, I could sense that he was desperately trying to suppress his anger. As both of our paths were not aligned, the way we thought was entirely different from each other.

Once I was done changing, I turned and left without even looking back.

Back at my apartment, I got myself changed before heading to the office. When I arrived, many of the staff looked in my direction. Perhaps, I was just being self-conscious, but I felt as if they were staring at me in a strange manner.
