Chapter 23

“Bye. I’m leaving.”

Not wanting to be alone with Michael any longer, I opened the door on the front passenger side and stepped out. Michael frowned and watched me leave in silence. After I got down from the car, he sped off, giving me a scare that had me rooted to the ground.

I pursed my lips in displeasure. This guy really lacked style, but it didn’t bother me as much as I thought it would. After all, from today onwards, there would be nothing between us anymore. Even if we met again in the future, we would be strangers to each other.

After walking a few steps. I called a cab to head to my good friend Natalie’s home. On the way. I realized Michael’s coat was still draped over my shoulders. I wanted to return it, but I did not know how to contact him.

Forget it. I give it back to him if I have the chance in the future. Anyway, the CEO of a company that’s this big in size should not lack a coat.

When I retumed to Natalie’s, she had just arrived home. She took note of how my

clothes were a little messy, and she also realized I was wearing Michael’s coat. Immediately, she knew something had happened and quickly questioned me.

“Anna, tell me what happened! Did you do what I think you did with him?”

Natalie‘s gaze fell upon the hickey on my neck, and an ambiguous look crossed her

Although she was my best friend, I was a relatively conservative person, so I could not help blushing when she questioned me.
