Chapter 445 Fight
I became increasingly agitated. I stood up and grabbed hold of his collar. Those questions had been on my mind for the past year. I really wanted to know the reason. Every time I saw Michael, I wanted to ask him.
Every time, I stopped myself because I did not want him to know I had not forgotten about him. Now that I had some alcohol, I became bold. “Anna, you had too much to drink. I’m not Michael; I’m Nicholas,” reminded Nicholas as he removed my hands from his collar.
In my current groggy state, I no longer cared what he had to say. All I wanted was to vent my frustration. “You answer my questions! Answer me!” I grabbed hold of his collar again and yelled.
“Anna!”
He called out my name and wanted to say something. However, it did not matter what he had to say right now. I just buried my face in his chest.
“Do you know how my life has been for the past year? Michael, have you really ever truly loved me? Why would you be willing to hurt me like that…” I mumbled.
With my face against Nicholas’ chest, tears began flowing down my face.
His body felt rigid, and he did not speak for a long time. I even started to feel the tension in the air. Then again, when people had too much to drink, their senses tended to become a little dull.
After a long time, he placed his hand on my back and patted me like he was consoling me.
I did not struggle in his embrace and wanted to enjoy the tenderness for as long as I could. Unfortunately, it was short-lived.
The very next second, the room door opened. Before I could figure out what was going on, someone hit Nicholas, and he fell to the ground.
The sudden turn of events woke me up. I stared at Nicholas, who was lying on the floor, and my mind went blank. What exactly is going on?
“Nicholas!”
I staggered my way to him and was worried. In the meantime, Michael was staring at me furiously.
Was I not in Michael’s arms a while ago? What is Nicholas doing here? Why are they fighting?
Since I already had some alcohol, I was obviously not in the right frame of mind. Now, I became even more confused. I had no inkling what just happened.
“I’m all right!”
Nicholas stood up, wiped his mouth, and shook his head at me.
My head felt like splitting. I was even more pissed off when I saw the two men that I did not want to see.
“Anna Garcia! You are getting bolder by the day, aren’t you? You actually brought a man back to the house!”
Michael strode in my direction and loomed over me with his eyes blazing.
Faced with his questioning, I frowned in puzzlement. When I finally figured out what he was accusing me of, I flew into a rage.
