Chapter 346

It seemed like Michael had no ulterior motive in uttering those words on the surface. In truth, he wastelling Elisabeth that I was his woman.

I was pretty astonished when Michael only needed one sentence to deal with Elisabeth while I had tosay so much to her. That was also a demonstration of the stark difference between Michael and myself.Every word that came out from him was with intent.

“There's no telling when that kid will have a girlfriend. He's not attending the matchmaking sessions Iprepared for him right now. I wonder why.” Elisabeth cast a glance toward me nonchalantly when shesaid those words. She probably thought I was the culprit for Ronan to behave in such a manner.

Again, I would not deny that I had something to do with Ronan's current state, but I had rejected hisconfession incontrovertibly. It would be unacceptable to me if I were still the one getting blamed.

“I believe it's only a matter of time. Everything will be fine after Ronan thinks it through,” Michaelresponded to Elisabeth emotionlessly while looking at her.

Upon listening to his words, Elisabeth's expression changed. Her gaze at Michael had become a littleindecipherable. However, I was unsure what was in her mind as one of the best traits of a socialite washiding one's authentic emotion.

“Hope that will happen soon. Anyway, I'm leaving now as I don't want to bother you guys any longer onyour wedding day. We'll chat some other time when we're both free, Anna. Goodbye.” Elisabeth left thedressing room straight after finishing those words, perhaps because of the awkward atmosphere.

As soon as Michael and I were the only people left in the dressing room, I lowered my head in

frustration.

“Did Aunt Elisabeth bring up Ronan just now?” Michael turned and looked at me with an imperturbableexpression. It was as if he had already figured it out early on.

Without saying a word, I nodded as an admission. Encountering such an incident during my weddingwas still an unpleasant experience. After all, anyone would desire to go through the best moment ofone's lifetime on that big day.

“Don't take it to heart. It's Ronan's problem, not yours. Still, you should keep your distance from him inthe future.” Michael looked toward me with a warm smile on his face. Yet, his last sentence haddumbfounded me. I would appreciate it if he could admit to being petty instead of using Elisabeth as acover.

Regardless, I was still pretty happy since Michael's words indicated that he cared for me.

It was already evening when the wedding ended. At the moment, I was dead-tired, possibly because ofmy pregnancy.

After returning to the mansion, I sat on the couch without doing anything. The only thing I wanted atpresent was to have a good night's sleep.

As for Michael, he was sitting right by my side. His eyes were full of anguish when he looked at myexhausted look.

“I'm sorry for what you have gone through today,” Michael uttered in a tender voice while holding me in

his arms. His gaze toward me was overflowing with affection.

“Stop it, Michael. Today's our wedding. My weariness pales in comparison with that. Ah, I feel like themost blissful woman in the world today.”

Michael and I had officially become one flesh. That was a terrific feeling beyond a shadow of a doubt. Ibelieved my greatest happiness would be to spend the rest of my life with him.

Hearing that, Michael curved his lips into a grin cheerfully. It was apparent that my words had delightedhim.

He then placed his hands on my shoulder and began to massage it. I felt a little uneasy as he hadnever been that meticulous before. However, the perfect amount of strength he applied made me feelvery comfortable.

While he massaged my shoulder, astonishment surged in my heart as I never thought a dignified manlike Michael would know how to massage.

“It feels so good...” I could not help but express my feeling while indulging in the massage with closedeyes.

“You feel good, huh? Do you realize how seductive your expression is? You're arousing me to makelove with you right now,” Michael whispered into my ear after listening to my utterance.

The sensation of his warm breath grazing my ear caused my heart to palpitate uncontrollably.

When I became conscious of Michael's words, I widened my eyes and would not dare to look into his

eyes. Does he want to have sex again tonight?

My heart sank in an instant when I thought about that possibility. Not a chance! I repeated that thoughtin my heart probably up to hundreds of times. If Michael tortures me in my weary state, I may die!

Hence, I stared at Michael pitifully without speaking a word, hoping that he could grow a conscience byletting me off.

“Are you unaware that your gaze will only further inflame a man's desire to dominate? Aha! You'reseducing me. Isn't that right, Anna?” Instead of showing sympathy, Michael accused me of seducinghim. I felt an urge to pull out my hair in frustration by his words. Unbelievable! I was pleading with himnot to have sex tonight, for heaven's sake!

“What? No! I'm tired, Michael. Could you bear to torture me in my current state?” I looked at Michael indispleasure. If he still insisted on tormenting me later at night, I could guarantee that I would throw atantrum at him.

Before giving a response, Michael looked into my eyes for quite some time and sighed indisappointment. “When is the baby coming out from your womb? I have endured for months!”

Helplessness saturated his countenance as he gazed at my baby bump.

“There's still a couple of months left. Keep it up.”

I felt a little ecstatic when Michael implied that he would not do anything to me later. I can finally have agood night's sleep tonight without his disturbance! Hooray!

“The baby is at fault for depriving my benefits every night! I can't wait to teach our kid a lesson afterbirth for that!” Michael spoke those words in a pretty loud voice deliberately as a jab toward me. Hisaggrieved expression made me wonder if I was too cruel.

That said, I changed my mind instantly on second thought. Michael has tortured me every night thus fardespite my pregnancy. Is it that difficult for him to have self-control for only one night? Inconceivable!

With that thought, the heartache I felt for him only seconds ago faded away. I decided to ignore himand continue to enjoy his massage.

Unbeknownst to me, I drifted off to sleep a while later. How I got upstairs was unknown to me as well.The only thing I knew when I woke up the next day was that I was on the bed in the bedroom.Concerning Michael, he was lying beside me and had not awakened yet.
