Chapter 21 Road Trip

Half an hour ago, Michael stormed back in, and they had another heated argument. Ever since Sophia came back, Emily felt like she and Michael couldn't stop fighting.

She was outside, watering the flowers in her light clothes, and Michael just wouldn't drop it. She was super annoyed, and right then, Daniel called to remind her she could visit her mom tomorrow. She felt a flicker of happiness, but then Michael snatched her phone and smashed it to pieces. "Are you agreeing to divorce me because of him? Emily, are you that desperate for a man?" Michael yelled. Emily was furious. "Why did you smash my phone? What does our relationship have to do with you? You jerk, you owe me a new phone." She shouted, staring sadly at the shattered pieces. Michael shot back, "Emily, you want a divorce and half of my assets to be with your lover, right? I'm telling you, it's not going to happen."

Emily felt drained by his accusations. "I don't understand what you're saying. You're nuts!" She pushed him away and tried to leave, but Michael grabbed her. He didn't want to fight today, but he saw Daniel having dinner with a beautiful woman at a restaurant, laughing and chatting.

Thinking about how Daniel used to look at Emily, Michael instinctively felt Daniel was a jerk and feared Emily would be deceived. But every conversation with Emily turned into a fight. Michael tried to explain, "Emily, Daniel is no good. I saw him today..."

"I don't know if he's good or not, and I don't care, but what right do you have to interfere? I've had enough, let go of me." Emily cut him off, and Michael felt his good intentions were seen as meddling.

"Fine, I was meddling. Then you can think about it outside alone." Michael said, slamming the door shut, "Ava, don't let her in."

Locked outside, Emily was almost driven mad by Michael. In the end, Ava couldn't stand it and let her in.

Emily thought, 'How did I not notice before that Michael is so nasty, childish, selfish, and arrogant?'

It turned out that loving someone really created a filter, and once that filter was broken, you realized they were just so-so.
