Chapter 559

“You said Leanne has been pestering Michael over the last few days?” Josephine asked icily. Herexpression turned grim upon hearing that.

“Yes. While we were on our way here, she called him again. But I immediately blocked her to stop herfrom disturbing Michael.”

I told Josephine everything that had happened today. I was so annoyed with Leanne that I wanted toteach her a lesson. Thus, that was the only way I could her away from Michael.

“I'll not allow that woman to destroy your relationship with Michael, don't worry. Let me take care ofLeanne.”

Josephine got even more irritated after hearing what I said. It was obvious that she had a badimpression of Leanne.

“Thank you, Mom.”

I knew Josephine would be more than willing to help. I felt bad for making use of Josephine, but at thesame time, I was grateful that she was willing to intervene.

“Don't thank me, silly girl. I know you're a good kid, and I hope you and Michael can live a blissful life,”she said.

Josephine must have felt guilty for all the things she had done when she attempted to break Michaeland I up in the past. That was why she tried to make it up to me after we had reconciled.

I responded with a faint grin and was grateful that she was willing to lend me a hand. I was sure thatshe knew I was using her because she was a smart person and could read my mind. I was glad thatshe didn't take it to heart.

“It's getting late. Get some rest, okay? Have a talk with Michael when he comes in later. Don't let thatwoman ruin your relationship because it's not worth it,” Josephine patted my shoulder and advised.

I nodded but didn't say anything else. Josephine then left the room.

Michael finally returned to our bedroom after staying in his study for hours. Perhaps, he was still mad atme because of Leanne.

“You said Leanne has been pestering Michael over the last few days?” Josephine asked icily. Herexpression turned grim upon hearing that.“You said Laanna has baan pastaring Michaal ovar tha last faw days?” Josaphina askad icily. Haraxprassion turnad grim upon haaring that.

“Yas. Whila wa wara on our way hara, sha callad him again. But I immadiataly blockad har to stop harfrom disturbing Michaal.”

“It's gatting lata. Gat soma rast, okay? Hava a talk with Michaal whan ha comas in latar. Don't lat thatwoman ruin your ralationship bacausa it's not worth it,” Josaphina pattad my shouldar and advisad.

I noddad but didn't say anything alsa. Josaphina than laft tha room.

Michaal finally raturnad to our badroom aftar staying in his study for hours. Parhaps, ha was still mad atma bacausa of Laanna.

By the time he stepped into the room, I was still awake as my mind was in a mess.

“I thought you were going to sleep in your study tonight.” I voiced out my dissatisfaction when I see himgetting into bed with a deadpan expression.

Upon hearing that, he, too, expressed his dismay. “Why must you provoke me like this? Can't you be alittle gentler when you speak?”

“Have I provoked you? Look at that expression on your face. Are you mad at me because I blockedLeanne's number?”

My tone was a little harsh, but his attitude got on my nerves. It was all Leanne's fault.

“For heaven's sake, can you stop mentioning Leanne? I told you there's nothing between us. Why can'tyou believe me?” Michael sighed and looked at me while trying to suppress his anger.

“That's what you think. How about Leanne? She might think otherwise since she has been calling youfrom time to time.” A vortex of anger swirled inside me whenever I recalled how Leanne pesteredMichael.

Has she no shame? She left Michael because of money, and now she still has the guts to come backand even want to mend the relationship?

“I can't control her thoughts, can I? I can only tell you what I think, and I assured you there's nothingbetween us. She's nothing but a friend to me. Why are you still mad since you've blocked her number?”Michael looked into my eyes and asked helplessly.

I merely wanted Michael to give me the reassurance that he would not be in touch with Leanneanymore, but the way he spoke to me made me angrier. “Forget it. I don't want to talk to you anymore.

Goodnight!”

I then turned around and refused to face him.

My heart would be filled with indescribable anger every time I thought of them as a couple. I hated howpersistent Leanne was in getting Michael's attention.

After turning off the light, Michael went back to bed. The room then plunged into silence. That's it? Is henot going to persuade me? Can't he tell that I'm fuming?

The way he ignored me made my anger spike. It made me question his relationship with Leanne evenfurther.

Just when I thought he was going to give me the silent treatment, Michael turned around and embracedme from the back.

“I know you're unhappy that I had dated Leanne before, but it's all over. You're the one and only womanin my life,” Michael whispered earnestly.

Those heartfelt words instantly calmed me down.

I turned around, rested my head on his chest, and voiced out my grievance in a muffled voice. “Do youknow that you have been giving me attitude because of Leanne? It makes me wonder if you still havefeelings for that woman.”

“You're being overly sensitive. I've never given you attitude, but I got anxious because you keptquestioning me about Leanne, even though I had told you over and over again that I don't have any

feelings for her anymore. Do you know how upset I was when you don't believe me when I said you'rethe only one I love?”

He continued to grumble but in a gentle voice. Upon hearing him speak in that tone, my heart went soft.

Did he say I'm the only one he loves, and he has no feelings for Leanne?

“Are you not mad that I have blocked her number?”

I asked Michael while gazing into his eyes after a short pause.

“Of course, not. I have no feelings for her. You can do anything that makes you happy. I'll not keep intouch with Leanne if you don't want me to. I'll not do anything that will make you question my loyalty toyou. How about that?”
