The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 168 Damage to Reputation

Bryan was starting to get a bit ticked off. He just raised an eyebrow and tried to spook Emily. "I don't have Michael's number. If you start crying here, I can't help you out." "Save your energy and wait until you get home to talk. Just a piece of advice, take it or leave it. I'm outta here."

With that, Bryan turned to leave.

But Emily didn't care at all. She just stared off into the distance, completely ignoring Bryan.

Who would've thought Emily wouldn't bite? Who knew what Michael did to hurt her so badly?

Bryan was stumped. Scaring her wasn't gonna work.

Of course, Bryan was just bluffing. No way he'd actually leave Emily stranded here.

Leaving a defenseless woman in the middle of nowhere only Michael would pull something like that.

"Now, call a tow truck and get me another car." A few miles away, Michael, hands on his hips, impatiently called Andrew.

It wasn't that he didn't want to go back for Emily; the car just broke down before he had a chance to turn around. He was stuck.

Michael was at a loss. He wanted to call Emily, but she had blocked him and hadn't unblocked him yet.

Michael was fuming. Why was she always so hostile towards him?

Frustrated, Michael hung up, locked the car, and started walking back against the wind to find Emily.
