Chapter 371 Find Your Own Happiness

Sometimes Emily thought it might be best if she and Michael just called it quits.

After all, it would be best if they could part ways amicably and coexist peacefully.

Like now, with Michael quietly smoking in the passenger seat while she focused on driving. Maybe they could even stay friends in the future, without any need for hostility that would make things uncomfortable for both of them.

Emily even thought that if things could stay this way, she might be able to talk to Michael about the kids... This thought quickly passed, and she began to scold herself internally.

If she was determined to sever ties with the Smith family, why was she entertaining such thoughts?

Just then, a song started playing on the radio.

Both Emily and Michael were very familiar with the melody, to the point where they could hum along.

"Love often drags people along, making the path of love full of twists and turns..."

The song continued, and the streetlights outside the car window flickered by, casting shadows inside the car.

Michael's expression alternated between light and dark as he took a deep drag from his cigarette and then flicked the butt out the window. The smoke swirled around him.

Michael spoke up. "Emily."

There weren't many cars around, and the road was fairly empty. They happened to hit a red light.

Emily stopped the car and turned to look at Michael.

His dark eyes met hers, and Emily felt a pang in her heart.

After a long pause, she heard him say, "I miss you."

And then there was nothing more.

Emily didn't know how to respond to Michael.

So she awkwardly dropped him off at Emerald Lake Manor and then went home. Fortunately, Michael didn't press her for a response.
