When William mentioned Thomas, he had an annoyed expression. Valeria didn’t want William to dislike Thomas, so she explained, “Thomas is a nice guy. You can’t give him a hard time. He is innocent.”
“He’s innocent? You went into early labor, all thanks to him. Haven’t you learned your lesson? Good thing you and the children are safe. If not, I will tear him to pieces!” William said viciously.
“This matter has nothing to do with Thomas. It was someone else who took advantage of him. He apologized to me! Honey, Thomas is a good person. He really is a good one.”
Seeing that Valeria was defending Thomas, William was unhappy. “Are you still defending him? If you had listened to me and not become friends with him, you wouldn’t be in such trouble, and no one would have used him to plot against you!”
“If they want to plot against me, they would use anyone even if it’s not Thomas. Besides, how good a person is Thomas? I have taken a liking to him. Are you being unreasonable and are forcing me to break off relations with him? This is immoral!”
William chuckled and said, “Didn’t you force me to break off relations with Michael? How is it that you can do it but I can’t?”
“Can Michael, that scumbag, be compared with Thomas? He is not even fit to be Thomas’ servant!” Valeria was infuriated at the mention of Michael. “If I had done better to match Abbie with Thomas instead and make them a couple, Abbie would not become how she is now!”
When Valeria talked about Abbie, she started tearing up. William didn’t dare to make her cry. “Alright, I was wrong! It’s all my fault. Do whatever you wish to. You can even hit me or shout at me. Just don’t cry! You will harm your eyes! I’m begging you, alright?”
At past three in the morning, the door of the private room in Climax Space where Azalea was finally opened. A man who had his fill walked out with a satisfied smile.
As the man walked out to the corridor, two burly men who had masks on and looked like bodyguards went forward to stop him. “Is it done?”
“It’s done!”
“Okay, come with us.”
“Where are you taking me?” The man looked hesitant. “Didn’t you say that you would pay me after finishing this?”
“We will surely give you the money. But you must wait till the end. Before this matter ends, you cannot see anyone. We still need you to cope with the aftermath of this.”
The two bodyguards said as they each grabbed the man on one side, and brought him away from Climax Space swiftly.
The man was then put into a car and taken away. Michael’s assistant got out of a car and entered Climax Space. He then opened the door of the luxury lounge.
Michael was lying on the sofa, resting with his eyes closed. His assistant called him gently, “Michael!”
Michael opened his eyes. “Was the scene cleaned?”
“Yes. Madam called me several times to ask why are you and Ms. Clark not yet home.”
Michael chuckled in response. He then sat up and turned on his phone. There were several missed calls from Meadow on the phone, and there were also messages. “Michael, why haven’t you and Azalea come home yet?”
“What are you guys up to? Why are you not telling me if you’re not coming home?”
Even though Meadow’s message was filled with worry, Michael ignored her. He put away his phone and looked at his assistant. “Do you know what to do?”
“I do!” The assistant nodded. “I’ll call Madam right away.”
As he spoke, the assistant had already dialed Meadow’s number. Meadow was already sound asleep, and her voice sounded sleepy when she answered the call. “Hello?”
“Madam… something happened.” The assistant deliberately made his voice sound a little flustered.
“What happened?” Meadow, who was sleepy at first, was suddenly wide awake.
“Michael and Ms. Clark… They were in the private room… Ms. Clark drank too much, and Michael drank too. They… they…”
“What’s wrong with them? Can you say your sentences clearly?” Meadow was very anxious.
As they were drunk and stayed in the private room for so long, something must have happened.
“They were together! Come and take a look!”
“Okay, I’ll be right there!” Meadow quickly got up and changed her clothes. Stanty was woken up by her. “Where are you going?”
“I’m going to see Michael and Azalea. Go ahead and sleep. Don’t worry about me!”
Meadow was extremely excited. She knew that there had never been any progress between Michael and Azalea. But today was a good day for her as Michael had finally overstepped the boundaries. As long as he were to take a step, it would be easy to get them married and have children.
Meadow thought this as she put on a coat and hurried downstairs to call the driver. “Take me to Climax Space!”
When Meadow’s car arrived at the door of Climax Space, Michael got up after receiving the news and slowly opened the door of the room where Azalea was.
There was a strange smell in the room. Michael covered his nose with his hand and walked to Azalea with an expression of disgust.
Azalea was lying on the sofa with her clothes disheveled, and she was unconscious like a dead person. Michael didn’t look at Azalea. He lay down on the sofa next to her and randomly opened a few shirt buttons.
As he heard footsteps hurrying towards the room outside, he sneered as he closed his eyes.
After a while, the door of the private room was pushed open. Meadow came in and screamed when she saw the situation in the private room.
Michael opened his eyes following her scream and subconsciously reached out to tidy his clothes.
Meadow rushed in. “Michael, you and Azalea… Get out all of you! Don’t come in!”
As she instructed her driver and Michael’s assistant not to come in, she walked to Azalea and took off her coat to cover her. “Oh my god, you two… How could you fool around like this in public? Azalea, Azalea, wake up!”
Azalea was shaken a few times by Meadow before she opened her eyes. “Aunt Meadow…”
“Azalea, are you awake? How are you feeling?”
“I have a headache… And I feel uncomfortable…” Azalea said as she raised her hand to rub her temples. When she felt that her arms were naked, she was stunned. “Where are my clothes?”
“Change your clothes. You and Michael were drunk, and the both of you… Why didn’t you two go somewhere else? Why did you do this straight in the room? What would people think of you think if word gets out?” Meadow grumbled as she looked at Michael.
After Michael tidied himself up, he got up and left without saying a word.
Meadow was anxious. “Michael, where are you going?”
“I’m going home!”
“Why are you in such a hurry? Azalea is still here. Why don’t you wait for her to get dressed before leaving?”
Michael ignored Meadow’s words and opened the door straight away. The driver, assistant, and bodyguards were standing outside the door. All of them looked into the room in unison and saw clearly how humiliated Azalea looked. Michael did not stop them from looking, and he strode towards the elevator while his bodyguard and assistant followed him.
As Meadow watched Michael leave like this, she was furious. “That bastard! How unreasonable is he! Azalea, get dressed and follow me home. I will surely give you an explanation for the things that happened tonight.”
