Chapter 447 Slept In The Bathtub
I cleared my thought and tried not to think about the past. The only thing I wanted to do now was to get out of here as soon as possible. Since Michael had gone to the bathroom, I figured it was my opportunity.
“You’d better not think of leaving. No matter where you run to, I can catch you back!”
The second I stood up, Michael’s voice came from the bathroom. He sounded utterly composed, as though he had predicted that I would escape.
I shifted my gaze toward the bathroom and realized the door was still closed. He was still inside. How could he possibly know what I was doing?
I froze on the spot, hesitating if I should leave. I hated to admit it, but his threat indeed worked on me. I did not doubt his ability.
However, I still recoiled in fear upon recalling his furious look. After pondering for a long while, I decided to leave anyway. I tiptoed to the door, not daring to make a sound.
Before I could reach the door, his voice appeared again. This time, it was right behind me.
“Anna, did you just ignore me? Did you hear what I said?”
Michael glared at me with rage.
My heart jolted as waves of terror rose within me.
Before I could say anything, he stepped toward me swiftly and carried me in his arms. I was shocked, and I responsively wrapped my arms around his neck. My heart started to beat fast as I felt the warmth emitted from his body.
I did not know why but my heart would pound furiously whenever he got close to me.
“Michael, what are you doing?”
I stared at him cautiously as my mind wandered. He is carrying me. Does he want to have sex with me?
“Shut up and go brush your teeth!”
He frowned and looked at me with disgust. It was probably because I had vomited earlier.
Indeed, he was very particular about hygiene. I knew it was challenging for him to pat on my back while I was vomiting just now.
I was somehow displeased when I saw his disgusted look. However, I did not say anything. I would not want him to be disgusted with me either.
He carried me into the bathroom and handed me a toothbrush. He had already put some toothpaste on it.
I grabbed the toothbrush awkwardly and started brushing my teeth. Am I that disgusting? He looks like he despises me so much.
He stood right in front of me while I was brushing my teeth. I felt utterly drowsy. I forced myself to stay awake as he was beside me.
After brushing my teeth, I had reached my limit. I walked past him and wanted to go out of the bathroom. Yet, when I reached the door, he grabbed me again. “Where are you going?”
His brows were knitted into a frown.
“I’m exhausted. I want to get some sleep. If you don’t want me to go, can I at least sleep on the couch for a while?”
I was extremely worn out, and I really did not want to quarrel with him.
“Sleep after you take a bath. Your whole body smells awful now!”
He grabbed my hand and did not wait for my response. He started taking off my clothes.
“Michael, what do you think you are doing?”
