Michael drove back to Westron City in the night. There was no traffic jam on the road so the journey was much easier.
Samantha was traveling with him. She kept stealing glance at him. He treated her like a sister. She is beautiful with a great figure so she couldn’t understand why Michael never see her as a woman.
At dinner, he made it clear that he had no intention of marrying her. His words felt like a thousand arrows piercing her heart at once. “I have no plans of getting married to you do you should start looking for a husband. Furthermore, if I am willing to get married I do have my own choice.”
Mrs. Matthews was so angry but he refuses to adhere to his mother’s wishes. Now it seems as if the only way to be his choice is to get rid of Ariana Fearon. She must eliminate her as soon as possible.
Soon they were in Westron City. “Where are you staying?” Michael asked without taking his eyes off the road. “I am going to drive you home.”
“I am staying at the Kings Hotel.” She already have a plan.
Soon they got to hotel. She noticed that he was not coming out of the car. She took a deep a breath, “Thank you for carrying me back. I will see you around even if we can’t get married in this life.”
Michael still looked indifferent without a slight of pity for her. He knew she ignite his mother to put pressure on him but he was not the one to have people making decisions for him.
Samantha realized his cold aura and decided to come off the car. As she stepped out her ankle twist and she bent her body in pain. Her eyes were full of tear.
Michael was wondering why she hadn’t close the car door and turned to look in her direction when he noticed there was something wrong.
“What happened to you?” Samantha held her head low while stooping and smirked.
“I hurt my ankle but I think I can make it.” She tried getting up and took two steps but almost fumbled.
Michael frowned and got off the car. “Let me bring you to the hospital.”
“No, I am fine. I have some ointments that I can rub on it to relieve the pain and swelling.” She was overjoyed. It didn’t matter which option he chose.
If he brought her to her hotel room, it is bound to spread like wildfire and if he sent her to the hospital this late at night, people will still misinterpreted their relationship.
Michael thought about it and decided that the hospital would be best. It is a public space and it would be easier to explain to his little rabbit at home.
He really missed her. He got word that she went out with friends and he was planning to go to the Prestige Clubhouse to see her and go home together.
“Stop talking so much nonsense and get in the car. I don’t know why you wear these tall things and cannot walk in it.” Michael had no emotions in his voice.
Samantha pursed her lip and got in the car.
Soon they got to a nearby private hospital owned by the Matthews’ Group. He took her to the Emergency room.
A doctor came to assist. He stepped out to call Ariana.
