Chapter 167 Danger Approaches

"Michael, are you done yet?" Emily's voice was as cold as ice.

Michael could tell something was off, but he couldn't resist taking a jab at Emily.

He noticed that Emily, like Bryan, always wanted to do things her own way. But how many things in this world could be done exactly as one wished? One small mistake could lead to irreversible consequences.

Yet, Emily was different from Bryan, who grew up in a loving family.

At least the Watson family, Mabel, and Penelope would do anything to protect him.

But Emily, she only had herself. Why was she now trying to push away her closest father too?

Some people wished they had a father but never got the chance.

Because of this, Michael couldn't understand no matter how hard he tried. So he kept speaking bluntly. "Emily, I'm doing this for your own good, and so is your father. No one is trying to harm you. You're just overthinking everything. You're not a kid anymore. Stop acting on your impulses. If you keep this up, it'll only hurt you in the end..."

"Enough!" Emily finally couldn't take it anymore.

She never expected Michael to criticize her like this for the sake of the Brown family.

All these lectures seemed to say that she wasn't mature enough, that she didn't treat her parents well enough, and that The Brown family wasn't wrong!

However, they were the couple, they were the ones with shared interests!

Emily, with tears in her eyes, looked at Michael and thought to herself, 'Well, Michael loves Sophia; in his heart and mind, there is only Sophia.'

Michael's first thought was to protect Sophia. As for herself, she was just a shield, a pawn in his play. Her
