Chapter 454 Training

He had never done anything even close to picking me up from work when we were friends with benefits. Back then, he practically ran away when he saw me in public, so why did he suddenly change his style? It was as though he was trying to make sure everyone saw him. Our past together made me think he had an ulterior motive.

“Do you honestly think I’d buy that lie? I know you, Michael, and you will never do anything that does not benefit you. Did you drop by today to mislead everyone in the company and make it so they don’t trust me?”

After fuming for so long, I finally dealt with my anger and calmed myself down. That allowed me to interrogate him calmly while looking at him.

He frowned a little upon hearing how I exposed his plans so directly. He didn’t explain himself, nor did he admit to anything.

His attention remained on the road, and it was as though he had never heard what I said.

Soon, I realized that the road we were traveling down was not the one heading to my apartment. It was leading to Birchwood.

We just spent a night there last night, and he was taking me there again… I instantly panicked and felt humiliated.

“Take me back to my apartment.”

I made sure my tone was icy when I spat those words at him.

I didn’t want to argue with him or discuss the matter with him. All I wanted was for him to be as far away from me as possible.

“Have you forgotten what you promised this morning?”

Michael didn’t make a U-turn. Instead, he kept reminding me of the promise I made that morning.

“I remember it well, but you made a promise, too. You said you’d give me enough time to rest and recuperate. I’m exhausted today, so I want to go home. No one will be playing with you tonight.”

“I won’t force you to do anything tonight, so you can rest well.”

He didn’t take me to my apartment as I had requested. His tone was as nonchalant as ever, but it was clear that the matter was not negotiable.
