"No matter she has a boyfriend or not, she is my Michelle. As long as I am alive, I will never allow her to leave me."
Standing in front of the French window, Scott hit the wall with his left hand, and his fingers had already oozed blood.
He looked out of the window, his heart beating restlessly.
On the second morning, Scott received a call from Jared. When he heard from his father, he really wanted to throw the phone in his hand to the ground.
"Dad, what are you doing? I have told you that I don't love her."
What was done by Jared made Scott angry. He didn't love Monica, let alone get engaged to her. Marriage was one of the most important things in his life. How could he give up his happiness and marry a woman he didn't love?
"I know, but you are 27 now. It's time to get married." Jared sighed and continued, "I know you can't forget Michelle, but she is dead, just like your mother..."
"Dad!"
Before Jared finished his words, Scott couldn't help but shout angrily. If it weren't for the sake of his father, he would have smashed the phone in his hand.
"I did it for the sake of the reputation of the Jiang family. The Jiang family is famous and influential in C City, but everyone knows that the president of the Jiang Group is 27 years old and hasn't got married. If the news spreads, it will become a joke in people's eyes."
Jared paused and finally told the truth.
Hearing this, Scott smiled bitterly and said, "Dad, it turns out that your love for aunt is fake? Have you forgotten what you said before? Is it because you don't need to fulfill your promise after aunt die? "
"Scott, these are two different things." Olivia's death was a complete pain for Jared, but he must live, even if he was without Olivia.
The promises in the past were only fulfilled for the living. But now that she was dead, what was the use of just keeping this empty promise?
In fact, it was just deceiving himself.
Scott didn't want to talk to him anymore, so he hung up the phone and threw it on the sofa. What happened yesterday was still vivid in his mind. He swore that he would never forget the ring on Michelle's finger.
Jared looked at the phone in his hand and sighed. As the father of Scott, he knew his son's temper very well. He wondered if he had done something wrong to make his son repeat the same mistake?
At that time, he also saw his beloved woman run into someone else's arms. He knew that feeling very well.
He didn't mean to force Scott, but he just felt that his son couldn't hold on any longer.
Time went on like this. Michelle stood in front of the French window and closed her eyes to feel the wind blowing in. At that moment, she felt her heart was in a mess. She didn't want to do anything and think about anything.
She didn't know what she was worried about.
She had never doubted Frank, but now she felt that her decision was so stupid. She didn't even know him at all. Why did Frank have so much money every day without going to work?
The villa was well soundproof, and no sound could be heard between the walls.
"Did I do something wrong?"
Thinking of this, Michelle heard the door open. She remembered clearly that she had locked the door before she went to bed.
No one dared to open the door without her permission except Frank.
"Michelle."
Frank walked to her and held her in his arms. From his tone, she could tell that he seemed to be very happy.
Michelle pushed him away subconsciously. She suddenly felt disgusted with Frank, especially when she smelled the perfume on his body. She always felt that his body was full of the smell of blood.
The smile on Frank's face disappeared. He looked at Michelle in confusion, as if asking why.
"Didn't you take a shower yesterday?" Michelle was afraid that he would be angry, so she deliberately changed the topic to distract him.
Only then did Frank realize that it was because of the smell of his body that he was too anxious to forget this.
"Ha ha, I'm going now." He giggled and kissed Michelle on the forehead before he left.
The door was closed again. Michelle opened the window of the French window and walked out. She stood outside the balcony and listened to the sound of nature.
At this time, she heard the sound of a car. It was definitely not an ordinary car.
A woman got out of the car. When she looked around, she saw Michelle standing on the balcony. The smile on her face was a little stiff, but she still followed the man in black into the villa.
