Chapter 424 Physical Fight
Michael strode toward me, his every word causing the rage within me to burn brighter by the second.
“Michael, so what if I’m desperate for a man? It has nothing to do with you. I would rather get myself a male prostitute than go to you. Please get out of my sight now. I don’t want to see you!”
When he appeared just now, there was a split moment where I felt guilty. However, after hearing what he said, my guilt was swiftly replaced by rage.
I had no intention of being together with Nicholas. Yet, he misunderstood and humiliated me in public.
“I can leave if you want me to leave. But you are coming with me!”
As Michael spoke, he grabbed my arm abruptly and started dragging me outside.
Although it was true that I wanted to leave this place, I had no intention of leaving with him.
“Michael, what are you doing? This is a restaurant. Many people are watching us! Are you trying to kidnap me?”
I struggled to free myself from his grip as I shouted wrathfully at him. I did not care about my image anymore as he had totally pissed me off.
Michael stared back at me, his gaze burning with fury as well. However, before he could say anything, Nicholas, who had been keeping silent, opened his mouth.
“Mr. Shaw, if I am not mistaken, Anna has already divorced you. It’s up to her whether to accept my proposal or not. You have no right to interfere, and you can’t force her to leave.”
Standing up, Nicholas cast a calm look at Michael. He sounded calm and composed.
Upon hearing that, Michael furrowed his brows and stared at Nicholas coldly.
“Even though we are divorced, she is still my woman. So you’d better keep your grubby hands off her. Nicholas, I’m warning you. You can’t afford to cross me!”
Michael narrowed his eyes, his gaze flashing a sense of hostility. He was determined to go against Nicholas no matter what.
“Is that so? I’m actually curious now to find out what will happen if I get together with Anna. In fact, if she’s willing to become my woman, I will gladly pay whatever price I need to pay, it would be worth it. Don’t you agree, Mr. Shaw?”
Nicholas smiled faintly. He did not seem to be bothered by Michael’s threat in the slightest.
I was displeased with Nicholas’ words. I knew he was trying to provoke Michael, and what he said would only make my relationship with Michael worse.
I was well aware of what his purpose was. As a result, I found the disdain I had for him grew more profound.
Michael clenched his fists as he glared at Nicholas. Before the latter could react, He had landed a punch on him.
I knew Michael was good at fighting. After all, he managed to rescue me from a few kidnappers back then. Seeing him making a move at Nicholas, I could not help but worry.
It’s indeed terrifying whenever Michael gets physical. If anything happens to Nicholas, he would also need to take responsibility. I couldn’t help feeling concerned that Nicholas might get hurt.
While I was still deep in thought, Nicholas had already gotten beaten to the ground. The next second, he immediately stood up and charged toward Michael. The two wrestled, but it was evident that Michael had the upper hand.
“The two of you, stop fighting!”
I shouted desperately at them. Yet, none of them listened to me. At that moment, they were obsessed with defeating the other party.
“How do you feel? Is it painful?”
My brows knitted tightly together as I stared at his wounds.
Even though I was not into him, he was still my friend. I would not want to see him getting hurt. Moreover, I would not be able to forgive myself if he got hurt because of me.
“Don’t worry about me. It’s just some scratches. If I can’t even take these, I am not qualified to be called a man.”
Nicholas smiled at me casually before using the back of his hand to wipe off the blood on his mouth. He looked like he was not bothered by those wounds at all.
I could not help but worry. After all, his wound looked severe, and it must be painful. I guess all men liked to put on a tough front, huh? Especially in front of the woman they favored.
“Anna, how could you worry about another man right in front of me? You’re just blatantly disrespecting me! How could you treat me like this?”
Michael could not bear seeing my concern for Nicholas. He kept his cold gaze on me, his chest heaving up and down as he tried to suppress his rage.
I was livid as well upon hearing his words. You are the one who hit him first.
“Michael, stop making a fuss! I really hate the way you’re behaving now! Nicholas didn’t even offend you, so how could you hit him?”
I confronted him, my voice getting louder as I spoke.
“I can hit whoever I like. There is no need for a reason. Anna, you keep pissing me off today!”
His dark eyes glinted as though they could swallow me whole.
