The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 115 Public Opinion Storm

A sudden phone ring jolted Michael awake, cutting off Emily's pleasant daydream.

She quickly shut her eyes, pretending to be asleep, then acted like the phone had woken her up.

In that split second of opening and closing her eyes, she locked eyes with Michael.

Michael, realizing his awkward position, scrambled up with an embarrassed look and grabbed the phone.

It was Andrew, his voice hoarse and a bit shaky. "Mr. Smith, finally! You're not at Emerald Lake Manor?" Michael's brow furrowed.

For Andrew to ask that, he must've already sent someone to Emerald Lake Manor.

Showing up at his place this early? Must be something big.

Michael got out of bed, started getting dressed, and put the phone on speaker, his face turning serious.

"I'm at the Smith Mansion. What's up?" Michael asked.

Seeing this, Emily didn't stay in bed either. She got up and could faintly hear Andrew's voice on the phone. "You need to check today's trending topics. You've been photographed. It was yesterday at the Japanese restaurant with Miss Brown, and also Mrs. Smith and her friend."

Andrew continued, "The angle of the photo is tricky. It shows you holding hands with Miss Brown while Mrs. Smith stands aside, looking really upset. The reporter even wrote the headline as... wrote it as..." "Wrote it as what?" Michael snapped.

Now, it was Michael's turn to lose his cool.
