Chapter 376 Unexpected Accident

Emily didn't want to take advantage of the Smith family.

But earlier, Mason had insisted she use the money in that account, so Emily transferred

all her salary to that card, while her own salary card held the money she had earned from taking care of Michael, which the Smith family had given her as a token of gratitude.

Emily had never intended to benefit from the Smith family in any way.

In fact, she had never needed to use a single cent from the Smith family; she had always lived off her own salary, even though she hadn't divorced Michael yet.

But Emily couldn't understand why her card had suddenly been frozen.

Could it be something Michael did while he was abroad?

Was he trying to make her sever ties with the Smith family?

It was about time to do that, anyway.

But Emily hadn't expected Michael to handle everything without even a word to her.

Did she mean so little to him?

Or was he doing all this just to embarrass her?

Thinking about it made Emily's heart ache as if it were being fried in oil. She hated Michael, hated how he repeatedly trapped her, and hated that marrying him had put her on the Ward family's radar.

She had once thought he could shield her from the storms, but now it seemed he was the one bringing them.

Emily's eyes began to blur with tears. In the bustling streets and noisy office buildings, she had nowhere to hide. But thinking about the nosy questions from her colleagues, she took a deep breath and held back her tears.
