The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 131 Come to My Side

Michael was like, "Sophia, chill out for a sec, just hear me out..."

But before he could finish, Sophia cut him off, all frantic. "How can I chill out? I can't! Michael, how can you leave me? We love each other so much! Is it because of Emily?"

Sophia was throwing a fit, and soon Ava showed up. Seeing that Emily was no longer around and that this dramatic Sophia had shown up instead, Ava, trying to maintain the harmony of the family, immediately stepped in front of them. Ava said, "Mr. Smith, Mrs. Smith wants Ceviche tonight. I've already got someone to grab the ingredients. What do you want for dinner?"

Sophia pondered, 'Emily? Did Michael and Emily move back to Emerald Lake Manor? Then why did Emily move out before? This chick really knows how to play her cards!'

Seeing Sophia's furious expression, like she wanted to tear someone apart, Ava snorted and turned to Michael, waiting for his answer.

Michael said, "I'll have the same as Emily."

As soon as he said that, Ava lit up, nodded eagerly, and headed back inside. Mission accomplished.

Sophia's face darkened. "Michael, are you dumping me to get back with Emily? What about all those rumors online? Is breaking up with me your answer to them?"

Sophia was on the verge of tears. Her eyelids fluttered, and she twisted her waist, looking like she was about to "accidentally" fall into Michael's arms.

But this time, Michael wasn't having it.

"Enough!" Michael shouted.

He looked around, put his hands on his hips, and glared at Sophia. "There's a reason I want to break up, but it's not because of Emily. The online rumors are out of control, and it's stressing me out. I have a lot to handle, and I can't take care of you. Plus, the rumors are hitting you hard. I can't let you get dragged through the mud for no reason. It's not fair to you. So, Sophia, let's take a break, calm down, and we'll talk later."

Michael laid it all out.

Thinking there was no point in dragging it out, he turned and walked away without looking back, leaving Sophia mid-act. Michael still thought too highly of Sophia. He believed she could really think calmly about their relationship as he said.
