Chapter 237 Venturing Alone into Emerald Lake Manor

The next second, Emily took advantage of the security guard's distraction and slipped in, her small frame making it easy.

Michael was in the bedroom, buried in paperwork. He sighed deeply when he heard the noise and set his pen down.

Emily burst in, the security guard hot on her heels, shouting, "Mrs. Smith, you're really putting me in a tough spot. Mr. Smith, I didn't let her in, she just..." The poor security guard was in a real bind.

He kept apologizing to both Michael and Emily.

Emily felt for him, but she was determined to see Michael today.

This issue needed to be settled; Michael couldn't dodge it, and neither could she.

Plus, Emily genuinely cared about Michael. She couldn't lie to herself or ignore her conscience.

Ignoring the guard's pleas, Emily went straight to Michael. "Are you okay?"

Michael couldn't help but chuckle coldly at the scene. Seeing them both standing there awkwardly, he chose to ignore Emily and waved the security guard off, saying calmly, "Your bonus for this month is gone. Leave." The guard's face fell, and he sighed as he walked out.

Emily knew Michael was aiming his frustration at her. She frowned and asked directly, "Do you really have to do this?"

"Do what?" Michael shot back without hesitation. "You told me to leave, to stop meddling in your life. Emily, you're really something. Look who's meddling now."

Saying this felt like a stab to Michael's heart.

But he had to push Emily away.

No one knew how much his leg hurt, or how much his heart was breaking.
