Chapter 554 The Slut Calls
Josephine looked at me with a smile before saying, “All right then. Both of you must be tired after being out for the whole day. Go back to your room and take a rest. I’ll let you know once dinner is ready.”
I was unable to sleep the previous night, so I was really exhausted. After hearing Josephine’s suggestion, I went upstairs with Michael for a rest.
Perhaps, after I discovered that nothing was going on between Michael and Leanne, I was at ease. The moment I lay on the bed, I fell asleep very quickly.
Michael lay next to me and held me tightly in his arms. That was a very blissful and deep sleep. By the time I woke up, it was already dark.
That night, everyone sat down and enjoyed a peaceful dinner. Just then, Michael’s phone beeped again. In my mind, Leanne was the only person who would message Michael.
Therefore, before Michael could read the message, I took his phone from him. True enough, it was Leanne. She told Michael in the message that she was feeling terrible all of a sudden and wanted him to go over to keep her accompanied.
When I read that, an icy smile appeared on my face. This Leanne is ridiculous. Earlier on, she said she wouldn’t cause Michael any more trouble. Not a day has passed, and she’s already sending messages to Michael. Unbelievable.
Has she forgotten what she told me? Or maybe, she thinks that she is still very important to Michael, and he will go running to her at her beck and call.
“Leanne has sent you a message.”
This time around, I did not delete the message. Instead, I placed Michael’s phone in front of him without worrying about everyone who was present.
Michael frowned unhappily when I spoke up so loudly, but he did not say anything in return.
He deleted the message straight away without replying to Leanne, and he did not look like he had any intention of leaving.
That made me quite happy. It looked as if he really did not intend to see Leanne again.
“Anna, did you say it’s Leanne who has sent him a message?” asked Josephine in disbelief.
“That’s right. Michael told me she is a friend from abroad. Recently, she has returned and hasn’t been feeling well for the past few days. Every now and then, she will call or message Michael and ask him to take care of her.”
I glanced at Michael and deliberately spilled the beans.
Before that, I had always hid things from the Shaw family because I did not want to worry them. Now that things were fine between me and Michael, this matter should no longer be an issue.
However, after hearing my reply, Josephine looked awful even though I had no idea why. She glanced at Michael, and I could see a hint of anger in her eyes.
“Michael, what’s going on? What’s going on between Leanne and you?”
Josephine sounded like she was interrogating him. It had been a long time since I last saw her being so serious.
“Nothing. There’s nothing going on between the two of us,” answered Michael as he put down his cutlery.
“Michael, I don’t care how you are related to that woman, but, I have to remind you that Anna is your wife now, and both of you have a child. I won’t allow you to do anything to upset the two of them!”
Michael’s explanation was not to Josephine’s satisfaction. I could hear she was fuming with rage.
