Chapter 1454 Too Smooth

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

Upon hearing that Michael had returned, Michael and Meadow looked at each other and came out to see what was going on.
Both of them heard the sound of hurried footsteps coming from outside. Furthermore, Wayne could hear the faint sound of high heels as well.
However, both of them were confused. Why would there be the sound of high heels?
Did Michael bring a woman here? How could that be possible?
While she was thinking about this, she saw Michael walking in with a beautiful woman in his arm.
When Wayne saw how Michael was being this intimate with a woman openly, the expression on his face turned cold.
Meanwhile, Meadow also looked unhappy and looked up and down at the woman beside Michael.
She had seen this woman before. This woman was the same woman who had fooled around in the hotel with Michael that night. She was also the woman that Michael had brought with him to the hotel.
But now, Michael had brought this woman home. What was he trying to tell them?
As Meadow thought about this secretly, she glanced at Wayne. Meanwhile, Wayne had also recognised the woman standing next to Michael, so he snorted and said, “Hah! I can’t believe you’ll still come back willingly.”
On the other hand, Michael turned a blind eye to Wayne’s cold face. Instead, he looked at Michael with a smile and said, “Grandpa, you look good recently! I think you’ve become fatter since I left. Looks like you’ve been living a good life recently, huh?”
“Your grandfather has just been discharged from the hospital a short while ago. Previously, he became a lot thinner when he was discharged from hospital.”
However, Michael ignored Meadow and introduced them to the woman beside him with a smile. “Anatasia! This is my grandfather!”
After that, Anatasia greeted them politely with a smile on her face and said, “Hello, grandpa! My name is Anastasia Baker.”
However, Wayne looked at Anastasia coldly without showing her any mercy and asked, “Miss Baker, what’s your identity? What are you coming here to meet the Davis family as?”
“Of course, she’s coming here as my girlfriend! Do you need me to spell it out for you?” Michael answered while grinning.
“You brat! I wasn’t asking you about this! I was asking her! Stop interrupting me!” Wayne was so furious that he couldn’t control himself.
However, Michael continued smiling and said, “Alright, grandpa, it’s already this late, so we can say the rest tomorrow. Anastasia, you should go up and rest first. After you go up the stairs, the room at your left is my bedroom.”
What? Michael actually wanted to allow this woman to stay here for the night and sleep in his room as well. After hearing this, Wayne’s face almost turned green out of envy,
However, Anastasia listened to Michael’s words. Hearing Michael’s words, she nodded politely to Michael and walked up the stairs.
Well, no matter how polite Wayne was, he couldn’t tolerate the current situation any longer, so he shouted, “Hey! Stand there!”
After hearing Wayne’s shout, Anastasia stood still on the spot and looked at Wayne innocently while asking, “What’s wrong, Mr. Davis?”
Michael sneered and replied, “What do you think the Davis family is, Miss Baker?”
Anastasia replied in a soft voice, “Of course, this is Michael’s home. Am I wrong to say this, Mr. Davis?”
“You’re right. This is Michael’s home, but this is my home as well. Furthermore, Michael does not call the shots here as I’m the head of the family.”
After hearing this, Anastasia looked at Michael innocently and said, “Michael, this…”
Michael frowned. “Grandpa, what are you doing? I brought a friend back to spend the night, so why are you doing this?”
“Hah! How do you have the nerve to say this? You bastard! How could you do anything you want like this? Do you still care about me and your mother?”
“Of course, I care about both of you! I’ve also purposely brought gifts for both of you! Also, both of you want grandsons as soon as possible, don’t you? I think that Anastasia is pretty great, so I plan to marry her and have kids with her. What’s wrong with that?”
“You bastard! Don’t… don’t you know that Azalea is in the hospital taking care of the baby right now? Why are you bringing back some random woman home?!” After Wayne had finished scolding Michael, he turned to Anastasia and said, “Miss Baker, not everyone can enter the Davis family. I’m the owner here, so without my permission, no one can stay in the Davis family.”
“Michael, I…”  Anastasia looked at Michael pitifully.
“Baby, don’t be afraid!” Michael patted Anastasia’s shoulder and said, “Since they won’t allow us to stay here, let’s leave now! After all, we have other places to stay in. Let’s go to our villa then. Right now!”
After Michael had finished speaking, he walked out with Anastasia. However, Wayne was so furious that he stomped his feet and said, “How dare you leave her? Guards! Make sure Michael stays here and chase that woman out of here!”
Once he had finished giving his orders, several bodyguards immediately rushed in from the outside. However, Michael narrowed his eyes and chuckled. “Hey? Haha! Why can’t we talk about this peacefully? Why are you suddenly resorting to violence?”
“You brat! I’ve always wanted to talk to you about this peacefully, but you never listed to me. If so, then you shouldn’t blame me for this. Bring Michael upstairs to rest.” Wayne ordered the bodyguards. Then, he turned and looked at Anastasia coldly before saying, “Go back to where you came from!”
After hearing Wayne’s words, the bodyguard stepped forward respectfully. “Sir, this way please.”
However, Michael did not struggle. Instead, he smiled and ordered Anastasia, “Alright, if that’s the case, I guess we’ll be separated tonight temporarily. Go back and wait for me first. I’ll come ant look for you tomorrow.”
After hearing this, Anastasia agreed obediently and left.
On the other hand, Michael didn’t resist, so Wayne was a little surprised. However, he hardened his face and asked, “Who allowed you to look for that woman? Let me tell you something, I have something serious that I need you to take care of tomorrow.”
“What is it?” Michael asked.
“Well, I need you to settle your relationship with Azalea,” Wayne answered while glaring at Michael.
Meadow also added, “Michael, Azalea is pregnant. You can’t treat her like this. Also, you should be responsible for her!”
“Heh!” Michael sneered and didn’t say anything else.
When Wayne saw Michael’s sneer, he became furious. “Hey! This isn’t something that you can settle with a sneer. Azalea is pregnant, and this isn’t a trivial matter. Now that you’re back, you should visit her at the hospital.”
“No! I don’t want to go!” Michael refused almost immediately.
“This isn’t up to you! I’ve already decided on this matter. Tomorrow morning, you and I will go to the hospital to see Azalea and apologise to her. Then, we can discuss about your marriage with her.”
“Our marriage?” Michael continued to smile and asked, “Are you really planning to let me marry Azalea?”
“What else? She’s already pregnant, so are you trying to go back on your word?”
“I don’t want to go back on my word. However, I want to ask you, you wanted me to marry Azalea, right? Have you talked to the Floyd family about this? What did the Floyd family say?”
When Meadow heard Michael asking about the Floyd family’s opinion, she raised her brows and interrupted them by saying, “Of course, the Floyd family agreed to this! After all, I’ve met Deborah, and she asked you and Azalea to get married first!”
“Is that so?” The smile on Michael’s face deepened a little as he asked this. “Well, since you have agreed, I will let nature take its course. I will ask you one more time. Do you really not regret asking me to marry Azalea?”
“You already have a child, so what’s there to regret about? Stop spouting such nonsense. Besides, it’s late now, so you should go back to your room to rest. Tomorrow, we will go and see Azalea together.”
However, Michael laughed meaningfully and replied, “There’s no problem with visiting her, but I have to remind you to think about this carefully. I gave you all a chance to change your mind, so both of you can’t regret your decision tomorrow!”
After saying that, Michael strode upstairs. However, Wayne and Meadow were confused. After all, they thought that Michael would go against them, but they never thought that the latter would discuss this with them so quickly. Were things proceeding more smoothly than they thought?
