Chapter 1422 Breaking The Door

Book:That Stranger Lying Beside Me Published:2024-6-1

The assistant was shocked when he saw Michael’s text message. What was Michael doing to do with a hotel room and a woman?
Michael had always been clear-minded. Apart from Abbie, there was no other woman in his heart. He was not someone who had friends with benefit as well. If he sent such a message, something must have stimulated him.
The assistant knew that Michael had gone to pay respect to Abbie since the Clark family was holding a funeral for her today. He couldn’t have gotten into a fight with Richard, could he?
Richard now hated Michael so much that he would not show mercy to him. Was Michael beaten so hardly that he wanted to vent? Was that the reason why he would ask his assistant to do that?
The assistant felt that his guess was right. He couldn’t let Michael fall like this, so he immediately stopped him. “Michael, don’t be impulsive! You can’t ruin your reputation on impulse.”
“Impulsive? Are you okay? Just do as you’re told and stop being so extra!”
Michael scolded, “By the way, remember to inform Azalea about this after you’ve done the arrangement.”
“Tell Azalea? Why?”
“Duh, I want Azalea to come over and make a scene. It’s best if she comes, but I don’t care if she doesn’t as well. Try to make it to the trending search in social media and make it sound as bad as possible. Just say that I’m having an affair with a woman in the middle of the night.”
Michael paused for a moment and said, “By the way, try to find a woman who is tight-lipped and bold. It’s best if she can fight, as I want her to beat the hell out of Azalea.”
Only then did the assistant understand what Michael meant. “I see. I’ll get it done right away.”
Today, Azalea was embarrassed at Valeria’s place. After returning to the Davis family, she shut herself up in her room to vent her anger.
Meadow knocked on the door but she ignored her. Meadow was confused and asked Wayne about it. Only then did she know that Azalea was humiliated.
She immediately went upstairs to comfort her. Azalea finally opened the door with red eyes and said, “I was humiliated and so embarrassed today! I wanna die!”
“I’ve heard everything from Wayne. How could your grandparents be so mean and allow Braelynn to bully you? It’s too heartbreaking.”
“How would I know? My grandma defended me a little, but grandfather didn’t say a word from beginning. Braelynn took advantage of it and bullied me. I’m so mad!”
“Don’t be mad! I think the main reason why your grandfather did not help you is that he doesn’t want to reveal your identity. Braelynn must have no idea as well, or she wouldn’t be so bold to scold you.”
“It’s so obvious that Valeria instructed Braelynn to do so. Who gave her the guts to treat me this way! Also, I already said that I don’t wanna go, but Wayne insists! I’m so angry, gosh!”
“It’s not worth it to be mad over that! Valeria is your cousin-in-law. She did not want to see you because of Abbie, so be it. But who the hell is Braelynn? Let’s remember this and make sure she pays.”
After Meadow calmed her down, Azalea was not so mad anymore. She asked, “Where is Michael? Why isn’t he home?”
“I don’t know. He didn’t come back last night too.” Meadow suddenly remembered something after she said that. “Today, the Clark family set up a cenotaph for Abbie. Michael might have gone there, I guess?”
“Will he?” Hearing this, Azalea was anxious. She thought for a moment and immediately relaxed. “The Clark family hates Michael so much now, so they won’t let him go.”
“It’s certain that the Clark family won’t let him go, but Michael loves Abbie. He’s loyal and will definitely go. I have to call him and tell him to get back here.”
Meadow called Michael countless times, but he ignored her. Azalea also tried calling Michael, but no one answered.
The two of them sent text messages to Michael, but to no avail. There was no response from him at all.
Seeing that it was late, Meadow then went downstairs and ordered the servants to prepare dinner, while Azalea went to the bathroom to take a shower.
After taking a shower, she sat in front of the mirror and began to apply her makeup. The phone on her rang with notifications.
Azalea thought that Michael had sent her a message, so she immediately checked. When she saw the message on the screen, her expression suddenly changed. Michael smoked two more cigarettes in the car before starting the car. On the way, his assistant sent him a hotel location.
He drove directly to the hotel. When he got out of the car and entered the lobby, Azalea called him.
Michael ignored the call and set the phone to silent. He then entered the lift while Azalea kept calling. Azalea swore when Michael ignored him, and then went directly to Meadow.
“Ms. Harris, do you wanna know where he is? He’s having a date with another woman in the hotel.”
“What? That’s impossible. Who told you that?” Meadow did not believe her.
“Michael’s assistant sent me a message saying that he had already booked a room for a beautiful model in the hotel. He secretly told me about this and asked me to think of a way to handle it.”
“This bastard, what is he gonna do?” Hearing this, Meadow jumped up. “We can’t let Michael mess up. We have to find him immediately.”
“That’s what I mean. We have to go find him now!”
Meadow couldn’t be bothered to eat anymore and said, “That jerk! I’m gonna teach him a lesson!”
The driver of the Davis family drove to the hotel according to the address Michael’s assistant gave Azalea.
Meadow and Azalea got out of the car and hurried into the hotel. The room number sent by their assistant was on the top floor. Both of them then rushed to the door of the room and began to ring the bell.
After ringing the doorbell for a while, still no one came. Meadow shouted, “Michael! Michael, open the door!”
There was no response inside. Meadow asked Azalea in confusion, “Are you sure it’s here?”
“Yes, it is.” Azalea slammed the door. “Michael, open the door now!”
The two of them knocked repeatedly but was ignored. Azalea rushed to the reception to ask for a card.
But how could the receptionist give Azalea a room card? She then refused Azalea’s unreasonable request.
Azalea was so angry that she kept stomping on her foot. She called the driver to follow her upstairs and knock on the door.
The driver didn’t dare to knock the door down. Meadow stood beside him and said, “Just do it. I’ll handle the consequences.”
With Meadow’s words, the driver began to kick the door. The door was very strong. The driver punched and kicked for a long time, but he still could not open it.
Seeing this, Azalea became impatient and kept urging, “Come on! Are you so weak?”
At this time, the door was finally opened from the inside. Michael stood inside with his clothes in disarray. His hand was on the door frame and his voice was hoarse as he spoke? “What are you doing? Is it fun to bother me from my business?”
