Chapter 268 The Wedding Is Off
“It’s a reminder!” I looked Emma in the eye, not backing down.
“Anna, how dare you!”
She was raging at my retort. Before she could say anything, Michael cut in with a roar, “Enough!”
His deep voice was so cold that both of us instantly shut our mouths.
Even though none of us wanted to back away in the fight, we couldn’t help but cower in front of him.
Emma’s expression instantly changed. Next, she ran over to his side, looking so wronged as she grasped his arm and choked on her voice.
“Michael, did you see how that woman treated me just now? She’s here to ruin our wedding. Can you please chase her away immediately?”
She looked so pitiful that I would pull her into my embrace to comfort her if I were a man.
Unfortunately, her trick was useless to Michael. All she got was an impatient gaze from him as he pushed her away mercilessly.
“Michael…”
Emma had never expected him to give her such a reaction. She widened her eyes in disbelief.
No matter what, it was their wedding that day. It was only natural for her to be upset. Moreover, it wasn’t a secret that Emma had always liked him.
Michael didn’t look at Emma at all. Instead, he strode toward me before stopping in front of me with a solemn look. For some reason, my heart trembled uncontrollably upon meeting his gaze.
“Why didn’t you tell me that you’re pregnant? Anna, am I a fool in your eyes? Is it fun to keep me in the dark?”
He seemed calm on the surface, yet there was an undeniable rage in his voice. I couldn’t help but lower my head, feeling guilty.
I didn’t dare to meet his eyes or speak because I didn’t know how to explain myself. After all, I was so adamant about keeping it a secret from Michael in the beginning. If it weren’t for the accident yesterday, I wouldn’t have changed my mind.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to sabotage your wedding, but I—”
I parted my lips and started to explain. However, I couldn’t finish the sentence upon noticing how Michael’s expression grew darker midway.
He refused to listen to me as he asked, “You chose to tell me on the day of my wedding to pressure me by using the public, didn’t you?”
“No! I didn’t! It’s not what you think!” I quickly explained, seeing that he had misunderstood me.
How could he think of me like that? It never came to my mind before, not even once.
Standing behind him, Emma smirked smugly upon taking in how he treated me.
“All right, that’s enough!”
