Chapter 162 Let Bygones Be Bygones

Alice got the hint right away and grabbed Bryan's hand, ready to leave. "Bryan, that's enough. We're outta here!"

Michael slowly lifted his eyes, filled with a mix of emotions. "Shouldn't I be asking you that?"

With that, Michael took Emily's hand and led her out of the main exhibition hall.
