Chapter 361 New Lover
I really wanted to ask him. Why are you here? Why didn’t you spend time with your new lover?
However, I did not want to be so straightforward. I was afraid that once I confronted him, things would turn ugly. I knew that my thoughts had put me in a lowly position, but my love for Michael was much deeper than I had expected.
Initially, I thought that I could never accept betrayal. If Michael ever cheated on me, I would leave him non-hesitantly. However, I was still in a dilemma now. I did not want to be separated from him.
“Betrayed? Anna, what’s wrong with you today?”
After I interrogated him agitatedly, Michael clearly became impatient. His beautiful eyebrows were knitted together as fury filled his eyes.
“Yes. Something is wrong with me. Michael, do you know what I regret the most? It’s falling in love with you!”
I was betrayed once when I was with Justin back then. Even then, that scene remained vivid in my mind. The thing I was afraid of the most was enduring betrayal again. I thought that Michael would not do such cruel things to me. However, I realized that I was overestimating myself and also Michael.
My words were uttered out of fury. That was because I felt aggrieved, and I wanted to vent my anger.
Upon hearing my words, Michael’s face fell. His eyes were burning with rage as he stared at me. The next moment, he strode toward me in wide steps before he placed his hands on my shoulders and kissed me.
Feeling the warmth on his lips, I was so shocked that my eyes widened. I did not expect him to kiss me so abruptly.
Michael’s kiss had a magical effect on me. When I was in bad mood, all the bad emotions in me would disappear right after his lips touched mine. My consciousness almost deserted me.
However, the scene of him chatting and laughing with another woman flooded my mind again. After I returned to my senses, I pushed Michael away and wiped my lips violently, trying to remove his scent from them.
He probably did not expect me to push him away like that. Michael was stunned for a moment before his eyes began to fill with more anger. “Anna, what the hell is wrong with you today? I’ve apologized to you. What else do you want from me?”
He was glaring at me while his tone was filled with impatience.
“I don’t want anything. I just don’t want to see you. Please don’t show up in front of me!”
“I don’t want to see you. Don’t come to see me again. You should just let your new lover keep you companied.”
My heart sank as I looked at Michael’s eyes. He had never treated me so impatiently in the past. Is it because he has a new lover now? Does he think that he’s wasting his time talking to me now?”
“Fine. As you wish, then!”
Since I had made him leave once again, Michael agreed coldly and turned around to leave.
Looking at his figure as he walked toward the elevator, tears started rolling down my cheeks. I did not understand how things had turned out like this. A few days ago, both of us were still deeply in love. Within several days, our happiness had shattered just like that.
“Michael, why are you-” Natalie saw Michael right after she got out of the elevator.
However, before she could finish her sentence, Michael got into the elevator and instantly pressed the button to shut the door.
With a frown, Natalie looked at the floor number which was changing. Later, when she walked toward me and saw the tears on my face, her eyebrows were clenched together tighter.
“Did Michael talk to you? How did the conversation turn out?”
Natalie pulled me inside and shut the door behind us.
“Nothing much. You saw that Michael left in anger. Natalie, I really think I’ve overestimated myself. Michael doesn’t love me as much as I thought.”
