Chapter 289 A Chance Encounter

So, was it all a misunderstanding between Emily and Daniel from the beginning?

Michael felt his heart skip a beat, especially when he saw the determined look in Emily's eyes.

It was a strange feeling.

Not only did his previously gloomy mood suddenly brighten, but he also felt a deep sense of panic from within, along with those uneasy emotions.

"So, you mean... you don't like Daniel?" Michael asked.

Emily hadn't realized that everyone had mistakenly always thought she was deeply in love with Daniel while also being with Michael, making her seem fickle. Even Abigail sometimes advised her to prioritize.

Now, she finally understood.

She had always focused on distancing herself from Daniel but forgot to clarify things with those around her.

Given her current relationship with Michael, she usually felt some things didn't really need explaining to him.

"I never liked him. I might have had a bit of a crush on him, but I never intended to be with him. I think you misunderstood, and Veda misunderstood too." Emily answered.

At this point, Emily suddenly remembered Veda talking to her on the balcony earlier. When Daniel was mentioned, perhaps she should have explained to Veda.

But Emily didn't; instead, she rebutted Veda out of pride. Now she couldn't help but think that maybe from that moment, Veda started to resent her and decided to run away from home?

Thinking of this, Emily felt a bit guilty.

She momentarily forgot to meet Michael's gaze, and thus didn't notice the sudden intense look in his eyes directed at her.

And that rapid heartbeat, almost bursting out of his chest, made it even harder for Michael to handle at that moment.

Suddenly, Michael opened his arms and hugged Emily, which surprised Emily and had quite an impact. That familiar, warm chest felt like a muffled thunder, shaking her soul, and her heart was ignited, with passionate emotions surging.
