Billionaire's Match

Chapter 852

Michael had no intention of returning to the Morrison family.

"In that case," he said, lifting his glass slightly, "this toast is to your courage now and the turning point ahead."

"Alright."

Michael immediately poured himself half a glass of wine and raised it with a smile.

Winnie picked up her glass again as well, lightly clinking it against his.
