Chapter 1008

Khloe had assumed Michael was always with Winnie and would naturally know about all of this.

But according to Lucas, Michael had been extremely busy these past couple of days and had even gone out of town today. If he had known what Winnie was planning, he would never have left her side.

Winnie hesitated for a moment. “I haven’t had the chance to tell him yet, but it’s fine. It’s all over now anyway.”

Khloe could already guess the truth. “Didn’t have the chance, or chose not to say anything?”

Winnie fell silent under the question.

Michael had always been the one protecting her. This time, she wanted him to see that she was no longer the same as before.

Khloe agreed. “Alright, but…”
