Chapter 324 The Sunday Misunderstanding

"Really? I had no idea he had plans this Sunday," Emily said.

Jessica quickly dialed Emily's number. She was the type who couldn't keep things to herself, and she didn't hold back her complaints about Michael to his wife.

"Michael's bailed on me more than once, Emily. Don't you think he's being a jerk?"

Emily chuckled softly on the other end of the line. In truth, she didn't know what Michael had planned for Sunday either. It seemed Jessica was just as clueless, so despite her curiosity, Emily didn't ask.

Smith Corporation had been incredibly busy lately, and Michael had been practically living at the office. Emily felt sorry for him and had even arranged for Ava to prepare nutritious lunches for him all week. Now it seemed she could skip Sunday.

"Yeah, that's pretty unfair. Let me find out what's going on and make sure he gives you an explanation."

The response came quickly from the other end.

"I wouldn't dare! Michael being busy is understandable. I just needed to vent. I know the Smith family has a lot going on lately. Mr. Mason Smith is sick, so it's normal for Michael to be busy!

"Work stuff isn't a problem. We've been friends for a long time; we'll sort it out when the time comes!"

Jessica seemed to have calmed herself down. She had been angry, but now she had talked herself out of it.

Emily couldn't help but laugh.
