Chapter 430 Awkward

Michael’s hand paused for a moment after he heard what I said. He frowned at the very next moment and turned around. In a deep voice, he asked, “Anna, are you really that eager to make me leave? Do you really hate me that much?”

His voice was soft as well. It carried a hint of dissatisfaction, but he wasn’t angry at me.

“I don’t want to see you again because I don’t want you to mess my mind up. Michael, please. I beg of you. Please don’t show up in front of me again. Will you do that? What do I have to do to get you to leave me be? Or are you trying to chase me out of the country again?”

I looked into his eyes and lost control of my voice. I could tell my tone was getting more and more agitated as I spoke. My mind kept showing me the memory of how he helped clean me up. The tenderness he showed… It truly worried me. I honestly didn’t know how to deal with him.

He looked into my eyes, but he didn’t respond. Still, I could see the disappointment and pain in his eyes. I wasn’t sure if that was just an illusion, though. Are his eyes even capable of showing that kind of emotion?

“I won’t show up for the next few days, and I’ll give you some time to cool off. However, you should know that you will only ever be mine. No other man will ever have you.”

Michael spoke in a domineering tone, and his eyes shone with determination.

Looking into his eyes and sensing his resolution, I knew he wasn’t joking about anything, and I panicked. I didn’t know how to interact with him when his eyes were glowing that way.

The silver lining was that he claimed he wouldn’t show up for the time being. That allowed me to sigh a breath of relief because, at the very least, we wouldn’t have any contact for the next few days.

Michael carried me out of the tub afterward and wrapped me up in a towel. Then, he placed me on the bed. I kept quiet the entire time.
