The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 274

Chapter 274 Full of Crisis

"You..." Tiana was furious.

Emily held onto Michael before they left, still catching a glimpse of Tiana's face twisted in anger, paired with her bright green sequin dress, which was quite a sight.

"Why did you argue with her?" As soon as they sat in the lounge area, Emily instinctively began to scold Michael. "Today is Roger's event. How many times did I tell you before we came? He even invited the media. You are the highly regarded CEO of Smith Corporation. If someone takes a photo and posts it online, what if someone with ill intentions takes it out of context? Grandpa can't handle the shock, and the shareholders of Smith Corporation are already on edge..."

"I know." Michael said.

For a moment, Emily was so focused on blaming Michael that she didn't realize her words were a bit harsh.

As a result, Michael's face turned quite unpleasant.

Seeing this, Emily could only sigh and say to him. "Rest here for a bit, I'll go chat with them."

Michael looked up. "Didn't we just say we wouldn't separate?"

Emily frowned, looking helpless. "But this is a social event after all. If we keep to ourselves like this, it won't look good. We're both here for the reputation of the Smith family. Don't worry, I've heard plenty of harsh words before, I won't mind."

This response made Michael's heart ache.

Tiana's words earlier were already unpleasant enough.

But Emily could endure it all. Michael knew she must have heard a lot of harsh words before, so no matter how bad it was, it was just a small matter to her.

Michael suddenly felt useless for being unable to protect the person he loved the most.

As he was lost in thought, Emily had already lifted her dress and walked into the crowd. Sure enough, a group of people gathered around her, mostly wives of wealthy families. They had no jobs, no so-called connections, and came here just to accompany their husbands and chat about meaningless gossip.
