Chapter 445
I became increasingly agitated. I stood up and grabbed hold of his cor.
Those questions had been on my mind for the past year. I really wanted to know the reason. Every time
I saw Michael, I wanted to ask him. Every time, I stopped myself because I did not want him to know I
had not forgotten about him. Now that I had some alcohol, I became bold.
“Anna, you had too much to drink. I''m not Michael; I''m Nichs,” reminded Nichs as he removed my
hands from his cor.
In my current groggy state, I no longer cared what he had to say. All I wanted was to vent my
frustration.
“You answer my questions! Answer me!” I grabbed hold of his cor again and yelled.
“Anna!”
He called out my name and wanted to say something. However, it did not matter what he had to say
right now. I just buried my face in his chest.
“Do you know how my life has been for the past year? Michael, have you really ever truly loved me?
Why would you be willing to hurt me like that...” I mumbled.
With my face against Nichs'' chest, tears began flowing down my face.
His body felt rigid, and he did not speak for a long time. I even started to feel the tension in the air.
Then again, when people had too much to drink, their senses tended to be a little dull.
After a long time, he ced his hand on my back and patted me like he was consoling me.
I did not struggle in his embrace and wanted to enjoy the tenderness for as long as I could.
Unfortunately, it was short-lived.
The very next second, the room door opened. Before I could figure out what was going on, someone hit
Nichs, and he fell to the ground.
The sudden turn of events woke me up. I stared at Nichs, who was lying on the floor, and my mind
went nk. What exactly is going on?
“Nichs!”
I staggered my way to him and was worried. In the meantime, Michael was staring at me furiously.
Was I not in Michael''s arms a while ago? What is Nichs doing here? Why are they fighting?
Since I already had some alcohol, I was obviously not in the right frame of mind. Now, I became even
more confused. I had no inkling what just happened.
“I''m all right!”
Nichs stood up, wiped his mouth, and shook his head at me.
My head felt like splitting. I was even more pissed off when I saw the two men that I did not want to
see.
“Anna Garcia! You are getting bolder by the day, aren''t you? You actually brought a man back to the
house!”
Michael strode in my direction and loomed over me with his eyes zing.
Faced with his questioning, I frowned in puzzlement. When I finally figured out what he was using
me of, I flew into a rage.
“What rubbish are you talking about? When have I ever slept around with other men?”
Emboldened by the alcohol in me, I refused to back down. I have always been with him. How dare he
use of me being with other men! So unreasonable!
“The two of you were hugging each other, and you are still denying it. If I didn''t get here in time just
now, what was going to happen? Are the two of you nning to have sex?”
Michael got nearer to me. He looked as though he wanted to reduce me to ashes in the very next
second with his searing eyes.
I frowned even harder. What''s wrong with this man? Since when have I ever slept with Nichs? What
gives him the right to nder me?
“Michael Shaw, watch your words! What gives you the right to insult me like this?”
In his eyes, am I really just a promiscuous woman who will sleep with any Tom, Dick, and Harry? There
was nothing between Nichs and me. Nothing! Yet, he had said something like that to insult and hurt
me!
“I saw it with my own eyes. Yet, you refused to admit to it. Anna, I never thought you were such a
hypocrite!”
My words obviously had no effect on Michael. He looked just as infuriated as before. It seemed that he
believed his own usation about me with no regard for my feelings.
I had be a hypocrite in his eyes. Since when am I a hypocrite?
“Michael! You''re too much!”
If it was others who had said that about me, I might not be that angry. However,ing from Michael, it
pained me.
“Anna, stop talking to him. You had too much to drink tonight. Why don''t you rest early? Tomorrow,
when you wake up, you will forget about all the unhappy stuff.”
Just then, Nichs came up to me and eyed Michael with enmity.
I knew Nichs was concerned about me. However, I was in the midst of an argument with Michael. I
wanted to know why he was using me!
Both my fists were clenched. Emboldened by liquid courage, I really wanted to fight it out with Michael.
What gives him the right to say that about me! N?velDrama.Org owns this.
Just as I was about to say something, Nichs stood in front of me and ordered Michael to leave. “Mr.
Shaw, you''re not wee here. Anna needs to rest. Please take your leave.”
Michael was angrier than ever. He stared icily at Nichs and said, “Who do you think you are? I''m at
my woman''s ce. Since when you get to tell me to leave?”
As Michael was talking, I could feel tension rising in the room. Nichs, on the other hand, returned his
gaze calmly showing no sign of fear.
Nichs eyed Michael coldly as well when he said, “Your woman? Anna and you are already divorced,
and neither of you got married to one another again. How can you say she''s your woman? Mr. Shaw,
it''s good to be confident, but you shouldn''t be so arrogant. I think Anna has already told you on more
than one asion that she doesn''t want to go back to you!”
Michael had never been a patient man. He smiled coldly, but there was a glint of danger in his eyes.
“Don''t think I don''t know what you are up to. I said before, no one is allowed to touch my woman!”
Before Nichs could react, Michael punched him in the face. Nichs fell to the ground once more.
All of these happened too quickly. I did not have the time to figure everything out. When I saw Nichs
get hit again, I panicked. As for Michael, my anger toward him red up. He had indeed be more
and more barbaric. That was already the second time he had hit Nichs.
