Chapter 160 An Awkward Situation
Emily asked, "So, back then, it was just Michael and Bryan running the Smith Corporation on their own?"
Emily was floored. She had only planned to visit the Smith Mansion to see Mason and Veda, but she stumbled upon some jaw-dropping news.
This news finally made Emily understand why Michael was so furious last night.
Veda nodded, "Yeah, Bryan could've backed out before the agreement was signed. If he had, Michael wouldn't have been stuck with all those penalties. Six million dollars! And Michael was only eighteen."
"Not only that, he started the Smith Corporation from scratch, which means he was just a high school senior with no money. Imagine being hit with a six-million-dollar debt at that age. And Bryan? He just skipped town! Honestly, Michael shouldn't forgive him; he should demand compensation for emotional distress!"
The room fell silent, the tension thick in the air. Emily's face was a mix of emotions, her mind a whirlwind of thoughts.
Yeah, just like Veda said. Michael was only eighteen, trying to break away from his family and start fresh with his best friend. But his friend betrayed him, leaving him with a massive debt.
How did Michael get through it back then? Emily couldn't know, nor could she judge Michael for being cold and ruthless.
Thinking about it, Emily felt a deep sadness. She was sad for misunderstanding Michael and for blaming him so suddenly. Just then, her phone rang.
"I'm at the Smith Mansion," Emily said, feeling a bit guilty and unsure how to face Michael.
"I know," came the cold reply from the other end.
"I'm coming back right now," Emily said, thinking Michael was calling to rush her.
Michael replied, "No need, I'm right outside the Smith Mansion. Come out."
Emily said, "But I haven't changed into my dress yet."
Michael replied, "I brought it for you."
