Chapter 433 Your Girlfriend Asked

“Your company is newly established. How could you have that many things to do? Are you trying to give an excuse to avoid me?”

This time, Michael spoke up. He sounded upset with what I had said.

I could not help but panic when I realized he had noticed what I was trying to do. Despite so, I quickly composed myself.

It was true that I did not want to see him, and we both knew it. Therefore, there was no point in trying to conceal it. However, I could not say that in front of Natalie and Yuval.

“I have more things to work on precisely because my company is new,” I casually stated.

Acting as though I was unaffected, I helped myself to the dishes. I did not want to seem too uptight in front of Natalie and Yuval.

“Well, I can help you with it after we finish dinner. I’m sure I have a greater ability than you in dealing with your work.” Michael spoke again, and I felt the urge to throw something in his direction.

He was well aware that it was an excuse to cut short the time we were together, but he had to say that on purpose.

I thought he said he would never appear before me again after last night. Did he erase whatever he said in his mind?

I quickly rejected his offer with a slight frown, “There is no need for that. I don’t need an outsider poking into my company affairs. What should I do if someone leaks my company’s internal information? If such a thing happens, I think we would both get implicated.”

He did not say anything else afterward. However, his tightly knitted brows signaled he was unhappy with the situation. Nonetheless, I could not be bothered by what he was thinking. I only knew that I did not want to see him anymore.

Meanwhile, sensing the hostility between Michael and me, Natalie and Yuval sat opposite us in discomfort.
