The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Emily found Bryan's behavior a bit baffling.

She couldn't understand why he was suddenly helping Michael. Tilting her head, she decided to drop the formalities and asked directly, "What do you want?"

"Did Michael say something to you?" she continued, wondering if Michael had spoken ill of her or if he had confessed that their relationship was a mistake from the start. Whatever he said, it couldn't have been good. Michael must be extremely disappointed

"Michael doesn't know I'm here. I just wanted to chat with you. Don't get the wrong idea."

Hearing this, Emily felt a bit relieved.
