Chapter 239 The Reason for the Fallen Lamp

After helping Michael finish cooking, Emily headed back to Abigail's place.

Just like she said, she didn't stick around and left right away.

Michael, too proud to ask her to stay, still walked her to the door.

Emily said, "Your leg's not in great shape, no need to see me off."

Right after she said that, Michael called out, "Emily."

She turned around, and they just stared at each other. Their emotions were too complicated to put into words, and they were both in a slightly awkward state.

Emily knew Michael was too proud to ask her to stay.

Michael was starting to realize that Emily was stubborn and hard to win back. Getting her to give in might be harder than climbing a mountain.

Michael added, "About the chandelier thing... I'm looking into it."

Emily thought for a moment and replied, "Yeah, it should be checked out. You got hurt, after all. If it was on purpose, they should pay for it. Let me know if you find anything."

Emily really hoped it wasn't intentional. She and Abigail still had to live in that house. If someone was already out to get them before they even moved in, who knew what could happen next.

But even if it was intentional, Emily knew it wouldn't change much.

Back then, Scarlett almost ruined her, and what happened?
