Chapter 1634 Stop Joking Around

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

Meadow felt a chill in her heart. “Michael, don’t joke around! I’m very anxious now. You need to help me… I’m begging you!”
“What did you do when I asked you to bless my relationship with Abbie?” Michael asked with a sneer.
“Back then, I… I wasn’t in the right mind! Michael, I regret what I did back then. If I had known that Azalea was such a person, I wouldn’t have done that even if my life was at stake!”
“Are you regretting it? It’s a pity that the past can’t be changed. Besides, you probably don’t feel any regret because people like you are heartless and vicious. I don’t believe that you’ll feel any remorse.”
“Michael, I really regret it! I really…”
“Alright, you can stop pretending! I won’t pity your misery, and I will never sympathize with you!” Michael paused for a moment. “I’m going to hang up now! Congratulations on being driven out of the Davis family!”
When Michael hung up after he finished speaking, Meadow looked at Stanty and said, “Honey, Michael refused to help me and he hates me! What should we do now?”
Stanty sighed. “Back then, you really were…”
“How could I know that this would happen? I really regret it!”
Stanty frowned and thought for a moment. “It’s useless to say these things now. You’re the only one who can solve this matter because you’re the cause of all this. Since Francis is behind this, it’s impossible that Azalea doesn’t know anything about it. I suspect that Azalea and Francis have been working together, so you’d better find Azalea immediately and figure it out. We’ll think of a way after that.”
Stanty’s words reminded Meadow of the real culprit, Azalea.
This d*mned b*tch. Meadow had to go back and ask Azalea about the situation first.
Azalea had also seen the news yesterday that Michael had given all of his stocks to Francis as his betrothal gifts.
She also saw articles about her and Michael’s love story and read the rumours about their relationship. Azalea couldn’t help laughing.
How could Michael love her? It was all a joke! How could he possibly give away his shares like this? It was nothing but a daydream.
No one knew the situation clearer than herself. Michael hated her to the core, and they wouldn’t even have anything to do with each other if it weren’t for her pregnancy.
She didn’t know how the news came about. When Azalea called Francis to ask him about it, he just told her to ignore it and take care of her pregnancy.
Azalea didn’t bother about it after she heard Francis’s words. Besides, she knew that it was impossible for Michael to love her.
The only thing she could do now was to rely on the child in her belly to marry Michael and become the daughter-in-law of the Davis family.
After the night had passed, Azalea supported her bulging belly and slowly walked down the stairs to prepare breakfast.
As she walked down the corner of the stairs, she heard hurried footsteps coming from outside, followed by Meadow’s voice. “Azalea! Where are you?!”
“I’m here!” Azalea replied.
“You b*tch, what did you do to Michael!?” Meadow rushed over to grab Azalea.
Azalea protected her belly. “Meadow, what are you doing? Stay away from me, you’ll hurt my baby if you do this!”
“You little b*tch, I was fucking blind back then. How could I be so dumb to introduce such a shameless b*tch like you to Michael?”
Azalea was no longer afraid of Meadow and she became upset when she heard Meadow’s harsh scolding. “Meadow, what’s wrong with you!? Why are you so agitated?”
“Are you still pretending to be confused?” Meadow thought that Azalea was pretending to be innocent and she became so angry that she went forward to pull Azalea’s hair.
Azalea was so frightened that she didn’t dare to move. She held her belly tightly and said, “Meadow, what’s wrong with you? Let’s talk about it properly. You’ll hurt the child if you do this!”
Meadow hated Azalea to the extreme, but she was also afraid of the child in Azalea’s belly. Azalea had been pregnant for more than six months, so it would be terrible if something happened to her.
She pulled Azalea’s hair forcefully and asked fiercely, “You b*tch! Weren’t you the reason why Michael gave all the shares of the Davis family to your father?”
Azalea did not believe that Michael would do that at all, and she was also shocked when she heard this. “How is that possible? Why would Michael give his shares to my father?”
“How would I know? The shares are for your father, so how could you not know about it!?”
“Meadow, I really don’t know! I swear on my life!” Azalea swore, but her heart was pounding violently when she realized that Meadow must be telling the truth.
Why did Francis deny this yesterday? What were he and Michael planning to do?
Meadow let go of Azalea’s hair when she saw the latter swearing. “Then tell me why did Michael give his shares to your father! Did your father scheme against him?”
“I don’t know! Michael has always ignored me and my dad has always kept everything from me…”
“You’re nothing but a useless b*tch! Call your father immediately and ask him what’s going on!”
Azalea was also anxious when she heard Meadow’s words. Michael owned a majority of the Davis family’s shares, so what would he have if he gave all of them to Francis?
She was relying on Michael, not Francis. She would be in trouble if all the assets were given to Francis.
Azalea immediately called Francis, who answered happily “Azalea, what’s the matter?”
“Dad, did Michael give you all of his shares?”
“Azalea, you just have to take care of your baby and you don’t have to worry about these things.” Francis did not respond directly.
“Dad, this matter concerns me and my child. I need to know the truth, so please tell me if this is true or not.”
“It’s true.” Francis admitted it.
“Why did Michael give you his shares? Did you make a deal with him?”
“Yes, but I can’t tell you the contents of the agreement. You will know about it later.”
“Why can’t you tell me?”
“This is what Michael asked of me. Anyway, you just need to take care of the baby in your belly.”
Francis didn’t expose any hints at all, so Azalea was still in the dark.
Meadow was also very anxious when she heard this, so she lowered her voice and said, “Ask him what kind of deal did he make with Michael. Is Michael on the verge of bankruptcy now?”
Azalea immediately asked, “Why would Michael think of making such a deal with you? Is he completely broke now that he gave you his shares?”
“Michael took the initiative to make a deal with me because his purpose was to get revenge on Wayne and Meadow. You don’t have to worry about his current situation at all. He’s not a fool, so how could he give me his shares for free? Michael is still extremely wealthy, so your life with the child will not be affected in the future.”
Azalea heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing Francis’s words, but Meadow’s expression was very ugly.
Michael made a deal with Francis in order to get revenge on her and Wayne. With this, it was confirmed that she was the chief culprit of this matter and it was impossible for Wayne to spare her. She was really dead meat this time.
