Chapter 332 Michael's Distress

At that time, Amelia was overwhelmed with so much anxiety and it showed in her face. She quickly asked, "What should I do?"

"It's fine, I'll go and check upstairs," Michael replied while he stood up. He then added, "Just stay here, I'll be back in a minute."

Amelia simply nodded in agreement as she bit her lip, seemingly at odds with his decision.

Perhaps she might have been too naive to think that things would be simple from the very beginning. But now, it might have caused trouble for Michael.

Meanwhile, the air inside of Lucian's room felt cold. It might have been because of the silence between the people inside. It was so eerie that even the sound of a needle dropping on the floor would easily be heard.

Suddenly, Lucian heard a knock on the door and immediately asked the person to come in. At the same time, a smile made its way on his face.

Edmund noticed this and asked, "Lucian, do you really have no intention of reconsidering what I just said?"

At that point, Michael had already come inside. He had a wide smile on his face when he saw Lucian, but when he looked toward Edmund, the smile on face quickly disappeared.

Michael then said, "My apologies Lucian, I wouldn't have come in if I had known that you were busy with some business."

"What business? You actually came at the right on time. Let's have a drink!" Lucian replied and raised his glass. He then proposed a toast to Michael, but before the man could respond, Lucian had already taken a sip of his beer.

Michael didn't know how to react to Lucian's actions. So instead, he greeted Edmund, as a sign of politeness. "Hello, Mr. Edmund."

His greeting made Edmund smile, but it was of a different kind. One that seemed like it was forced. "What is it, Mr. Edmund? I'm feeling like a prisoner now," Michael teasingly added.

urant.

At first, she thought that Michael was truly in love with Sasha, but she didn't expect him to say something like that. She then tried to comfort him.

"How could you say that when you already have a child with her? And in addition, love can be developed through time."

Michael smiled with a hint of bitterness and replied, "At first, I thought so too. But what she did to me was unforgivable."

In Amelia's mind, Michael was kind of a playboy. But it was, in fact, the opposite. He was a gentle and sensitive man who seemed to be deeply hurt just by the sound of his voice.

"Please try to be more tolerant Michael, for the kids," Amelia responded but as soon as she did, Michael started crying in front of her. She felt a bit uncomfortable.

"Sasha still loves Lucian very much. She would often threaten me that she would have an abortion if I ever tried to get closer to her," Michael murmured.

Upon hearing his words, Amelia was left in shock completely.

"I'm sorry Amelia, I didn't mean to harm you or Lucian with that. I just wanted to finally say it to someone," he added.

People might think that he was only talking about these things because he was drunk. But at that moment, he seemed completely sober.

Amelia shook her head and said in an attempt to comfort him, "Don't worry, it's much better if you tell it to someone."

In the end, it turned out that Michael had done everything for the baby. But Sasha only used it to keep him away.

When their conversation was finally over, Amelia accompanied him in drinking a few more glasses of beer.

"I exposed Sasha's lie to you because I'm grateful for everything that Lucian has done for me. But now, I've realized that being with a woman that doesn't have a single ounce of love for me felt like I'm living in hell," Michael solemnly stated.
