The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 79 Couldn't Keep It

Sophia, with a forlorn hope, had slammed the car into the guardrail. Lucky for her, she walked away without a scratch and managed to get Michael to come over.

She was pretty pleased with how her plan was unfolding. Michael didn't bother chatting much with the traffic cops; he just made a call and had Andrew handle the accident. Michael had just left the hospital and took Sophia back there. He told the doctor to give her a full check-up, and once they confirmed she was okay, he took her back. With tears in her eyes, Sophia looked at Michael. "Michael, I don't want to go home."

Seeing how scared she was and how much she relied on him, Michael finally said, "Alright, I'll take you to Serenity Haven." It was one of his properties, a villa with a great view. Sophia nodded, "Okay, I'll do whatever you say." Michael took her to Serenity Haven, got her settled, and said, "Get some rest. Call me if you need anything."

Sophia couldn't believe her ears. She looked at Michael with a mix of emotions. She hadn't expected that after staging this car accident, Michael would still leave her.

Tears streaming down her face, Sophia cried out, "Michael, are you leaving already?"

Michael looked at her with indifference. "You had a rough day today. Rest up; it's good for you." Plus, he had just gotten a call from the caregiver saying Emily had a minor fall. It wasn't serious, but he felt uneasy and wanted to check on her at the hospital.

Sophia saw Michael's tight-lipped silence and panicked. Was her car accident plan not enough to keep him?

She clenched her fingers and hugged Michael from behind, crying and pleading, "Michael, please don't go. A rough today indeed. Can you stay with me? I'm really scared."

wouldn't come back. Something must have happened with Sophia, but she didn't want to care. What did it have to do with her? After the caregiver left, Emily looked at her phone. She wanted to call Michael to ask if something had happened, but she held back. She couldn't make this call. She didn't know what she was thinking, feeling a bit agitated, and scratched her head. Finally, she pulled the blanket over herself, thinking it was better to sleep. Over at Serenity Haven, Brian
