She could not stand the sight of him, so she vomited? Michael’s face had never looked uglier. For the first time in his life, a woman had rejected him so badly that she needed to puke her guts out!
As soon as Elena stood up straight, she felt something tightened around her wrist.
“Eldest Young Master Williams…”
He pulled her out of the toilet and threw her onto the bed. She had no time to struggle as he immediately flipped her on her stomach.
“Since you’ll vomit when you see me, then don’t look!”
He ripped her clothes off of her to reveal her snow-white skin.
“Eldest Young Master Williams…”
He was not overly rough with her, but she could feel the breath of a hungry beast emanated from him. He was like a wild wolf! She had crossed the line and made him angry!
“Michael, don’t touch me! No!”
She could ignore how dirty her body was, but she could not ignore the child in her womb!
“Michael, let me go! Let go! Argh!”
He had torn her clothes apart, and her body trembled beneath his! Michael’s eyes looked red, and he was about to part her knees when they heard hurried knocks on the door.
“Eldest Young Master Williams, open the door now!”
Then they heard Levi’s voice as he anxiously said, “Eldest Young Master Garcia, my young master is resting, please…”
“Elena, are you inside? Elena! Come out!”
Joseph’s voice sounded extremely worried. Then they heard Francis’s voice as he called out, “Elena, come out. Come out!”
There were sounds of a fight. Levi tried his best to stop the two young masters, but they were two against one, so Levi was at a disadvantage.
Joseph kicked on the door, and the heavy door almost gave way. Michael’s eyes were ablaze with hostility. He got up from Elena and pulled the quilt over her.
When Joseph’s second kick landed on the door, Michael had tidied his clothes as he looked indifferently at the door before it finally flung open. Joseph rushed in with Francis closely behind him.
Levi looked at Michael with an apologetic expression. Michael ignored him and swept his gaze at the uninvited guests who had entered his room. Elena sat on the bed with her shoulders exposed; her clothes were obviously torn. Joseph’s eyes turned scarlet instantly!
“I told you, you don’t need to do this!”
He walked to his cousin as he took off his jacket and wrapped it around her tightly.
“Let’s go home.”
Elena pulled his jacket around her tighter. When she got off the bed, she did not even look at Michael. Not even a glance! She walked to Joseph’s side with her head hung low, and she was quiet.
Francis felt like he wanted to slap himself to death. He blamed himself for saying those things to Elena. Otherwise, she would not have made her way there.
He glared at Michael. “What kind of a gentleman are you to take advantage of a girl in despair?”
“When did I call myself a gentleman?”
Michael scoffed at the statement. His gaze swept across Joseph and landed on Elena’s tiny face. His lips curled. His smile would always make women go crazy, and yet it was somehow terrifying.
“I don’t seem to have done anything. The girl came running into my room, did she not?”
“Michael!” Joseph balled his fists. His knuckles snapped due to the tight grip.
Elena tugged the corner of his clothes and said in a low voice, “I did come here by myself. It has nothing to do with him.”
They had failed to strike an agreement, and she was helpless and disappointed.
“Brother Joseph, let’s go home.”
She did not want to stay there, and she did not want to see the man again. After he claimed that she made her way to his room to be his toy, she knew that the tiny bit of expectation she had for him was gone.
Joseph gritted his teeth. After he took a deep breath, he wrapped Elena in his arms and turned to leave.
“You think that he can solve the problem in Garcia Corporation?” Michael’s cold voice echoed from behind them.
His eyes were on Elena. “He has no way to deal with the problems.”
Elena paused in her steps. She bit her lips, and her fingertips were tensed. She could not understand the man. Why would he say something like that if he would not help them?
That was not how he did things. Perhaps Michael did not even understand what he wanted.
Michael felt as if his heart had been ripped apart when the girl left with Joseph. He felt as if he would lose her forever if she were to walk out of that room. She would never return to him again. Michael would not admit that he cared for her dearly. Maybe he had not gotten bored with the woman yet.
“I’ve changed my mind.”
He casually lit a cigarette for himself. Levi knew that the eldest young master smoked to cover his emotions. Why would he hide his feelings? It was a question that only Michael could answer.
Elena turned around and looked at Michael. Even though he said nothing else, she seemed to understand what he meant. Michael smiled, but it had a trace of anxiety. She thought she had seen it wrongly.
“If you stay, I will resolve the agreement between Garcia Corporation and Williams Corporation.”
He flicked his fingers, but the ashes of the cigarette did not fall much. It was because he had flicked it numerous times. That was not Eldest Young Master Williams’s usual behavior. He had never been so restless.
He was never seen so restless before. Elena moved her foot, but Joseph pulled her back into his arms the very next second.
“Are you crazy?!” Did she think to stay with the man? Was she stupid?
“He doesn’t need Grandfather to agree with the deal or to send me here personally. Isn’t this the best conclusion that we could ask for?”
As long as they keep it a secret from their grandfather, he would never find out what had happened.
Except for Michael’s help, Elena did not know what else they could do to fix the crisis with Garcia Corporation.
They could expose Ava’s fraudulent claim as the Garcia family’s granddaughter so that the police would open an investigation on her. Ava could be charged, and the agreement would no longer be valid. However, they would also reveal Elena’s identity in the process, and the scandal between the two cousins would erupt once again.
They might conclude the matter, but Elena’s life would be ruined. Joseph kept her in his embrace. His voice was soft, but his words were sincere when he said, “As long as our family stays together, it doesn’t matter if we lose Garcia Corporation.”
