Chapter 362 Couldn't Control Themselves

"Emily..." Michael called out softly, like he was afraid she'd disappear if he spoke too loudly.

To his surprise, she answered, "It's me, Michael. How are you? Are you okay?"

Her voice was like a lifeline. Michael closed his eyes, fighting back tears. After what felt like forever, he suddenly stood up and pulled her into his arms.

His breath was heavy, warm air enveloping her. His lips, hot and electric, moved over hers again and again.

Emily wanted to resist, but she found herself inexplicably enjoying it.

She could sense Michael's inner turmoil. He wanted to hold back, but his desire was too strong. They were tangled up in each other.

It was unclear how long the kiss lasted before Michael finally let go of her.

Everything felt off-kilter. Their clothes were still on but wrinkled and disheveled. The room was filled with an air of intimate tension.

Michael looked at Emily again, noticing her swollen lips.

He knew he had been too rough and quickly apologized.

"I'm sorry, I..." Michael trailed off, but his actions spoke louder than words.

Emily couldn't believe these words were coming from Michael. She was stunned and could only manage a few simply responses, unable to form a complete sentence. They couldn't control themselves rationally, so they had to let time help them regain their composure.

It was late at night, and the staff at the Smith Mansion had gone to bed.

The mansion was silent as Michael led Emily out of the room. They walked to the small garden outside and sat on the wooden swing.

This was a rare moment of harmony between them, surprising both Emily and Michael.

"Why did you come?" Michael's mood had improved significantly, largely thanks to Emily.

But Emily didn't know this. She thought Michael was just angry and resistant to Scarlett's actions, maybe even a bit reluctant... She believed he had taken out these emotions on her, using her.
