The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 467 An Old Partner

Michael's face immediately darkened as he saw Dean.

Back when he was with the Emerald City Police Department, he was ready to go to war with Dean to get justice for Emily.

But Emily?

Sometimes Michael just couldn't understand how Emily had become so naive after getting pregnant.

Dean was practically messing with her, and she still turned around and sided with him?

The more he thought about it, the less sense it made. Michael's expression shifted as he turned to Emily, clearly puzzled.

Emily knew exactly what Michael was misunderstanding. She wanted to explain, but before she could open her mouth, his accusations came pouring out, as they always did, without giving her a chance to speak.

Faced with Michael's constant blame and complaints, Emily stood frozen, her mind going blank. It reminded her of the times when Sophia had framed her, back when she was a caged bird in the Smith family.

Michael had been the same back then, questioning her as if she were his enemy.

But they were supposed to be husband and wife, the ones who relied on each other!

She placed a hand on her belly, feeling the fluttering heartbeat inside, and interrupted Michael, "I had an appointment with Archibald, and it was for work. I didn't know Dean would be there, but I know what his relationship with Sophia is. However, work is work. If you don't believe me, come with me, so you don't think I'm betraying you again."

Michael fell silent.

Emily took a deep breath, taking his silence as agreement. She walked over to Archibald and said something to him. Michael saw Archibald glance his way and nod.
