The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 332 Facing Compensation

Hearing Michael call her "Honey" again, Emily felt a strange, stirring sensation in her heart, like someone was gently nudging her forward.

She slowly stopped what she was doing and turned around, meeting his deep, soulful eyes.

Emily was stunned.

She had never seen Michael like this before.

His expression wasn't exactly affectionate, but he looked unusually vulnerable, like he was pleading for help or begging for something.

Was he asking her... not to avoid him anymore?

Emily tried to understand Michael, but before she knew it, the distance between them had closed in the quiet, intimate atmosphere.

The car's headlights flickered, casting their reflections on the car's body.

Emily sat up straight in the passenger seat, unmoving, while Michael, with one hand on the steering wheel and the other bracing the driver's seat, slowly leaned closer to her.

The way he moved closer was almost magical, irresistible.

Emily felt as if time had slowed down, each second stretching into what felt like a year.

As Michael's face drew nearer, Emily could see the eyes that haunted her dreams, the sensation like a tickle on her heart, reminiscent of a dream.

This was different from before, different from when they were forced together by circumstances.

This time, they were both fully aware, yet they couldn't help but be drawn to each other, wanting to kiss, feeling a rush of impulsive desire, their eyes meeting with a hint of shyness.

Emily couldn't quite describe the feeling in her heart. It was like sparks flying, carrying a kind of reckless tenderness.
