The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 249 Misunderstanding Deepened

Emerald City was getting chillier by the day.

Michael just threw on a thin jacket and headed out.

He stood shivering at Abigail's door for a long time, hesitating and counting the bricks

at the entrance several times before finally deciding to knock and prepare to argue

with Emily.

Unexpectedly, just as Michael put on a tough stance, the door opened, and it was Abigail who answered.

Michael immediately lost his momentum and asked Abigail impatiently, "Why is it you again?"

Abigail and Michael now got along quite peacefully.

After all, it was Michael who found the house and helped with the move.

She was very clear about repaying kindness.

Emily smiled, "Yes, Mr. Smith, it'sagain! It's convenient living so close, isn't it? You visit my house from time

to time! Cin, | was just mixing drinks. Mr. Smith, would you like a drink?"

Of course, Abigail knew Michael was there to see Emily.

She had been curious about Michael's feelings for Emily these past few days, so she thought she might as well

take this opportunity to ask him directly, which could also help the troubled couple reduce misunderstandings.

Seeing Abigail's eager invitation and noticing that Emily didn't seem to be home, Michael immediately nodded,

ready to catch her off guard.

Since the last phone call, Emily had indeed disappeared from his life as she said, not contacting Michael at all.

Michael didn't expect to be the first one to lose patience.

He had found excuses to look for Emily several times, but each tit was Abigail who opened the door, saying

Emily wasn't hand claiming not to know where she was. Michael was extremely frustrated and helpless.

He didn't expect Emily to be absent again this time, but he had heard from Penelope that Emily had taken a

month's leave, so if she wasn't working, where could she be so late?

Curiosity drove Michael to get to the bottom of it today.

Abigail asked, "Mr. Smith, would you like to try this drink first?"

Abigail was clearly tipsy.

She handed Michael a glass of red wine, which seemed freshly mixed, with sparkling wine added, giving off a

unique aroma, and bubbles rising to the surface.

Abigail added, "And there's more, Mr. Smith, don't rush; try one after another!"

Michael couldn't help but admire how someone could have so much fun with themselves.

No wonder she was Emily's good friend, just as unwise as her.

With a sense of "disdain" and "eye-rolling" towards Abigail, Michael took a sip of the drink, and to his surprise, it

tasted different.

Michael had been to many bars but rarely encountered such a taste.

For a moment, he couldn't help but look at Abigail in a new light!

Meanwhile, Emily was in high spirits as she got into the car, ready to head hfrom the hospital.

She had been in a good mood these past few days.

After all, spending twith her mom, even just chatting all day, was enjoyable for Emily.

Emily was so excited that when she took out her keys to open the door, she was humming a tune and shaking

her head excitedly.

But Emily never expected to see Abigail sprawled on the couch, laughing uncontrollably, with Michael sitting

beside her, looking helpless.

Emily yelled, "Abigail!"

Seeing this, Emily naturally jumped to the conclusion that Michael was the one who caused it.

After all, Abigail was a girl, and Michael... was just a hypocritical jerk!

Emily was furious. "Michael, are you crazy? You got Abigail so drunk, don't you know she can't handle alcohol?"

Saying this, Emily tried to help Abigail up, but she was completely unconscious, unable to be dragged up.

She could only let her roll around on the floor, crying and shouting.

"How would | know? | knocked, and she invitedin for a drink. | saw her mixing drinks enthusiastically, so |

thought she could handle it. Who knew she was a lightweight?" Michael also claimed innocence.

He really thought Abigail could handle her alcohol, so he decided to drink with her to

get Emily's whereabouts out of her, making his visit worthwhile.

Who knew she would start babbling after the first drink and soon end up like this!

Emily didn't want to argue with Michael.

Hearing this, Emily glanced at Michael. "Is this the tto discuss that? Abigail is so drunk, | need to get her to

rest!"

But Michael, as if cursed, wasn't drunk at all.

Emily couldn't hold back anymore.

She didn't understand why Michael was so fixated on this.

Maybe it was because of the Smith family's reputation or fear of gossip!

Emily forcefully dragged Abigail away, leaving Michael standing there like a joke.

The alcohol in Michael's throat made him dizzy and angry, wanting to smash something to vent.

But in the end, he realized his good intentions were ignored.

Michael felt ridiculous and thought Emily was extremely heartless.

In the following days, Michael had someone follow Emily.

According to Andrew's reports, Emily had only been going to the hospital.

Several times, she left the hospital in Daniel's car.

This made Michael, who had no idea Isabella had woken up, suspicious.

Emily had no reason to visit her comatose mother every day, so she must be there for someone else, her so-

called senior, Daniel.
