Chapter 406
Michael’s fingers tightened around the coffee cup, denting it slightly. The coffee nearly spilled all over him.
What Khloe had said was, “Winnie, Michael says he doesn’t want to give up on you no matter what. Why don’t you try giving him a chance?”
When Khloe had gone drinking with Winnie before, she’d already wanted to say it-she felt Michael hadn’t truly let go.
The more cautious Winnie was, the more it showed she couldn’t withstand it either.
If the two of them could really suppress everything and grow old without ever speaking again, that would be one thing. But since a confession had already happened, then feelings should be made clear.
“Khloe!”
Michael called out her name before he’d even finished coughing.
His face flushed bright red.
Khloe immediately handed him some tissues.
“Slow down with the coffee. Don’t get so worked up…”
“I-” Michael coughed and frowned at Khloe. Only after forcing down the turmoil in his throat did he manage to say, “What message did you send to Winnie? Retrieve it!”
“Didn’t you ask me to help you?”
“I meant the coffee! It’s too bitter!”
At that, even Khloe’s ears turned red.
Michael quickly took her phone, fumbling as he hurriedly withdrew the message.
When Winnie still hadn’t replied after a long while, both Michael and Khloe finally let out a breath of relief.
“She’s probably busy. She must not have seen it.”
Khloe forced an awkward smile.
Michael stared at the chat window and the retracted message for a long time without speaking. He was clearly unhappy.
For someone usually so even-tempered to wear such a cold expression was actually a little frightening.
Khloe, like a child who’d done something wrong, didn’t dare say a word.
