“I’m here, so come out!”

Before I could say anything, Michael’s voice drifted over the moment the call connected.

And as soon as he finished saying that, the disconnect tone sounded.

At that, I glared at my cell phone irritatedly. What the hell is wrong with him? Every time he calls, he never gives the other person an opportunity to speak! Ugh! What a jerk!

Irked by his attitude, I inwardly decided not to do as he ordered. Oh well, he can just wait there since he didn’t even bother to let me speak before hanging up the phone!

However, I always had no backbone when it came to Michael. About five minutes later, I started growing antsy. He’s the kind of person who hates waiting for someone else, so he might leave if I continue tarrying.

“Gah! You’re really weak that you can’t even stand your ground in such a trivial matter, Anna!”

After having scoffed at myself while pointing at my reflection in the mirror, I then left the house.

When I reached the community gate, I was greeted by the sight of a silver Cadillac sports car dead center of the gate. Oh, he hasn’t left despite having waited for such a long time! I breathed a long sigh of relief.

I didn’t understand it myself, but a smile bloomed on my face the moment I glimpsed Michael’s car.

I sauntered over to the passenger side, but I didn’t get in right away.

Michael was dressed in a black suit that rendered his already aloof countenance even grimmer against the black background.

A pair of huge sunglasses sat on his face, so I couldn’t see the look in his eyes.
