Chapter 197 Division of Property

The sky was getting dark, and the lights in the courtyard of Emerald Lake Manor were pretty dim.

A small, warm yellow light barely lit up Emily's face.

She had her hair tied up in a simple bun and was wearing a brown-black coat, standing alone in the courtyard, looking down and typing away on her phone.

A message popped up: [My flight is tomorrow night, I'll be back soon, Emily, wait for me!]

Abigail even sent a smiley face emoji.

Emily gave a bitter smile, put her phone away, and got ready to grab the suitcase next to her and leave Emerald Lake Manor.

Suddenly, the roar of a car engine broke the silence. Emily paused, slowly lifted her head, and looked ahead with calm, beautiful eyes, showing no emotion.

Michael was back. He had driven the car right up to the gate of the courtyard, blocking Emily's way.

He must have just come back from the Brown Villa, right? Sophia didn't keep him for dinner at the Brown Villa? That was rare.

But maybe he wasn't in the mood to eat either. After all, with Sophia's sudden pregnancy, this news would eventually reach Mason's ears, and Michael had to figure out a way to explain it to his grandfather. Thinking of this, Emily suddenly gripped the suitcase tightly.

Emily was waiting for Michael to speak. But what she didn't expect was that after they stared at each other for a long time, Michael actually said, "Emily, stop acting. Aren't you tired?"

Emily felt like her heart wasn't breaking anymore. Instead, it was a dull pain, like a rough rope twisting around her heart, tightly entangled, suffocating and dull.
