The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 233 Starting to Move

Emily called out, "Abigail."

Emily really didn't want to bother Michael.

From what she knew about him, asking for a favor meant he'd never let her forget it, always bringing it up, and probably expecting some grand gesture in return.

It was just too much for her to handle.

Out of the blue, Michael turned to Abigail and said, "Housing's been tight in Emerald City lately. Still looking? I can help."

"Really?" Abigail's heart melted at the CEO's offer. "Thank you so much, Mr. Smith. You're too kind. If there's any news about the new house, just contact Emily. Our phone is on 24/7!" Abigail agreed right away, walking Michael out with a big smile.

Seeing this, Emily quickly pulled Abigail to the sofa and started lecturing her. "Abigail, didn't you used to hate Michael? What's with the sudden change?"

Abigail looked at Emily like she was clueless, then pulled her to the sofa and bluntly said, "Emily, are you really that naive?"

Emily was confused, but then saw Abigail holding her forehead in frustration. "Michael's attitude towards you has changed a lot. Haven't you thought... maybe you two could..."

Seeing Abigail's teasing smile, Emily knew exactly what she was hinting at.

So she shot it down immediately. "No way. Michael can't have feelings for me."

Abigail was puzzled. "How do you know?"

Emily quickly replied, "I just know."

Emily was sure Michael would never fall for her.
