Michael had already spent so much money on my family, so there was no way I’d let him deal with the issue at hand.

A few hundred thousand meant nothing to him, but for common folks like me, it was an enormous debt. I had already owed him so much, and I didn’t want that debt to become bigger.

“Do you honestly think that you can handle this on your own? If I’m not mistaken, you’ve already spent all your savings, haven’t you?”

 

Michael wasn’t angry about my rejection at all. He knows me so well! He actually guessed it right, and I have spent all my savings.

I tilted my head down in shame when faced with his nonchalant gaze. I didn’t know what to say because I truly couldn’t afford to make ends meet with the money I had on me at that moment. Despite that, I still didn’t want to owe him more.

 

“I’ll come up with something. Please don’t involve yourself in the matter.”

I looked into his eyes and had a straight face on when I spoke.

I didn’t want Michael to get involved in the matter because I didn’t want to owe him more than I already had, and I didn’t want my family to keep asking him for money.

Michael never owed us anything, and my family had no right to keep asking him for money.

He frowned a little after hearing what I said, but he never replied. I guess his silence means that he’s agreed to stay away.

“Anna, you don’t need to keep shouldering all the responsibilities yourself. I can help you out financially.”

Michael was quiet for a long time before he spoke up. His words touched my heart, and I appreciated the way he could always lift me up when I was at my lowest.
