Chapter 170 Thinking of Each Other

Bryan sighed. "Meeting Michael was a mistake from the get-go. Bet he told you the same thing, huh?"

Emily stared at the empty milk cup on the table, listening to Bryan's story about how he and Michael met, became friends, and then enemies. It wasn't much different from Michael's version, but people always liked to make excuses for themselves.

For instance, Bryan thought he had a ton of pressure on him his family, the Watsons, his parents, and Mabel.

He seemed like the typical rich kid, the heir to a fortune, but Bryan would rather live a simple life, just chilling in peace.

Listening to this, Emily felt Bryan was a bit out of touch with reality.

She also knew the gap between the rich and the poor was like a walled city; the poor wanted in, and the rich wanted out.

"If you think it was a mistake, then why do you have so many photos of you two at home? Are you trying to constantly remind yourself that your past was a mistake?" Emily asked seriously.

Maybe these questions hit a nerve, or maybe Bryan just didn't know how to answer. He turned around, looking at the empty milk cup on the table, and frowned. "Maybe I should put some sleeping pills in your milk."

Emily knew he was just annoyed by her talking too much and did it on purpose.

She smirked and continued. "I thought you didn't like to talk, but it turns out you're funnier than Michael when you joke. Alright, I'm going to sleep now. Thanks for letting me crash here tonight. Don't worry, I won't tell Michael about these photos as a return favor."

"What did you say? Emily and Bryan are together?" Hearing those two names together, Michael instantly lost it, and the invisible pressure exploded in his mind.

Abigail said, "I'm telling you this not to make you blame Emily! She had nowhere to go after you left her, and she was seriously hurt, bleeding a lot. If I weren't out of town and couldn't get back in time, I wouldn't need you to find her! And now you're blaming her? You're worse than your cold-hearted friend! And Michael, I'm warning you, you'd better leave right now..."

Before Abigail could finish, the line was already dead.
