The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 102 The True Face of Scarlett

"Michael, what the hell are you doing?" Mason's hand shook as he saw the scene, causing his cane to clatter to the floor. He glared at Michael, who was using his body to shield Scarlett. Emily rushed over to pull Michael away.

But it was too late; the scar on Michael's back was already visible, and there was a faint red mark on his neck.

Emily's heart broke at the sight. Her eyes welled up, and she started to cry. "Are you okay?"

Emily still cared about Michael. She had loved him for over three years, and no matter how bad their fights got, she couldn't just let go of their relationship.

Michael didn't expect Emily to start crying out of nowhere. Seeing her tear-streaked face, he was surprised but also felt a weird sense of happiness.

He moved closer and gently patted her arm. "It's nothing, just a scratch. I'm not gonna die."

With Michael's arrival, the chaos settled down.

But Mason was still fuming, and tonight's issue was far from resolved.

The Smith family sat solemnly in the living room, gathered together.

To keep things private, all the servants were sent out of the mansion, basically giving them the night off.

Now, Mason sat at the head of the table, with Veda by his side.

After the family doctor checked Michael's wound and confirmed it was nothing serious, Michael sat down with Emily.
