Chapter 551 Meeting That Woman

Michael’s tone was filled with a hint of guilt, and I felt my anger subside significantly after hearing that. However, I was still determined to not let him off the hook so easily, so I kept quiet and continued looking out the window.

We finally arrived outside the hospital after another twenty minutes of driving, and I felt my anxiety kicking in the moment we got out of the car. The main reason for that was because I still had no idea what kind of woman she would turn out to be. Michael claimed that they were just friends, but I had a feeling their relationship wouldn’t be that simple.

It wasn’t that I didn’t trust Michael, but I believed that a woman’s gut instinct was mostly accurate.

Fearing that the situation would be worse than I had imagined, I asked anxiously when we got closer to her ward, “Are you sure that you two are just friends? Is there really nothing more?”

 

“You still don’t trust me even when I’ve brought you all the way here? If that’s the case, you may go ahead and confirm it for yourself,” Michael said while frowning slightly in displeasure. “What’s her name?” I asked after a brief moment of silence.

“Her name is Leanne Ryheim,” Michael replied as the two of us got to the door. He then knocked on the door and called out to her, “Hey, Leanne.”

I tried observing his facial expressions to see if I could spot anything unusual, but he looked just as calm as he always did. There were no visible signs of a guilty conscience anywhere.

“Come in!” A gentle female voice could be heard coming from inside the ward. For some unknown reason, I felt a strong sense of discomfort deep down inside.
