Chapter 992 I Want to Take Him Away
"I seduced him? Michael is my fiancé. I should be asking you this. Why are you calling my fiancé late at night saying you miss him?" Laura raised an eyebrow and said. "Are you trying to be a mistress again?"
"It was me and Michael who fell in love first," Megan said furiously. "Michael is only pretending to be engaged to you."
"Sorry. This engagement was arranged by our parents. It's legitimate." Laura suddenly covered her mouth and gagged. "Oh no! Pregnancy nausea is so uncomfortable. Don't mind me."
"You're pregnant with Michael's child?" Megan was stunned.
"Who else could it be?" Laura deliberately said in a sweet tone. "Didn't Michael tell you? He wants this baby."
"Not happening!" Megan was completely agitated. "Michael doesn't love you at all."
"But he loves the baby. He just cooked for me before he left." Laura burped. "He's really good at cooking. I'm starting to fall for him. I almost don't want to give such a good manto you."
"Laura, wait and see. Even if you're pregnant, it won't matter," Megan screamed and hung up the phone.
Laura heard Megan's out-of-control voice. She laughed heartily.
Three years ago, Megan had made her and Cassie suffer so much. Now, it was finally her turn to torment Megan , and it felt great. No, she had to brag to Cassie.
Unexpectedly, after hearing it, Cassie was silent for a moment and then blamed her. "You were too impulsive. Megan is not easy to deal with. If she records the call and stirs things up, Michael will think you're scheming."
Laura's heart skipped a beat, and after a while, she said, "So what? I never really wanted anything with him."
"Alright then, as long as you can figure it out yourself." Cassie moved her lips, still a bit worried. After all, no one knew Megan's viciousness better than she did.
She decided to go over early tomorrow to prevent Michael from causing trouble for Laura.
Michael lived alone in a penthouse downtown.
Just as he got home, he suddenly remembered he had left his phone at Laura's place. He didn't feel like going back to get it, so he decided to pick her up for work in the morning and get his phone then.
As he was about to take a shower, the doorbell rang.
He opened the door to find Megan standing there, tears streaming down her face. "Michael, I just called you, and Laura answered. She said she's pregnant with your child. Is it true?"
Michael's look changed dramatically, as he hadn't figured out how to tell Megan about this yet.
"What did she say to you?" Michael asked nervously.
Seeing his expression, Megan knew it was true. She clenched her fists tightly. She never expected that Michael, whom she had firmly in her grasp, would have a child with Laura.
She cried out in anguish. "Laura said you don't want her to abort the baby and that you cooked for her. She's falling in love with you. You are such a good man andshe wants to take you away."
Michael was stunned, thinking, 'Did Laura say she fell in love with me? Does Laura want to take me away?'
For some reason, his mind went blank until Megan's desperate sobs brought him back. He became furious, pondering, 'Laura is so scheming, and I have just started to think better of her tonight.'
"Michael, why are you doing this to me? Joseph didn't want me, and now even you are betraying me. How am I supposed to live? Who said he would love me forever and never leave me?" Every word Megan said felt like a slap to Michael's face, burning hot.
"Megan, I'm sorry. I only found out she was pregnant a few days ago," Michael lowered his head and explained. "I don't like her, but my family won't agree to an abortion."
Megan's eyes widened, and tears streamed down her face. "So you want her to have the baby? What about me? Are you asking me to step aside?"
Michael's head throbbed. "The baby will be raised by my parents. I've already told Laura we won't get married."
"Michael, you're too naive. She knows you don't love her now, so she's using the baby to get close to you, making you let your guard down so she can get closer to you and make you like her, then ruin our relationship," Megan persuaded.
Michael was completely confused. He didn't think Laura was that kind of person.
"You don't believe me?" Megan smiled sadly. "I knew you wouldn't trust me, so I recorded the call. Here it is."
She played the recording, and when he heard Laura arrogantly say, "Such a good man, I don't want to give him to you," his face turned ugly.
"Michael, I don't want to force you, but if you still want to be with me, you have to make Laura abort the baby. I don't want you to have an illegitimate child. I only want our children. I care about you, so I'm not that generous." Megan retreated step by step, her eyes red as she left sorrowfully.
Michael watched her back, his heart aching. He cursed inwardly, 'It is all Laura's fault. She took advantage of me!'
That night, Michael didn't sleep at all.
At dawn, he drove to Laura's place.
Janice opened the door and smiled. "Ms. Miller is still upstairs changing."
Michael strode upstairs. Since there were usually no men in the house, Laura didn't close the door while changing.
Michael barged in and saw Laura in the open dressing room, his breath catching.
That slender waist, that fair skin.
It was the first time he had seen her so clearly.
"Janice." Laura turned her head and saw Michael's dark eyes, screaming in fright before closing the dressing room door.
Michael's Adam's apple bobbed. He thought, 'Damn it! I was embarrassed myself in front of Laura!'
He quickly went to her room's bathroom.
Laura, her face flushed, got dressed and came out, finding no one in the room but a blurry figure in her bathroom.
She asked herself inwardly, 'What is he doing in my bathroom?'
Laura, who was a clean freak, rushed over and knocked on the door. "Michael, isn't there a bathroom downstairs? Why are you using mine? Don't pee on the floor, okay?"
"Shut up." Michael's hoarse roar came from inside.
"Why does your voice sound so strange? Are you constipated?" The more Laura thought about it, the more disgusted she felt. "Who told you to poop in my private bathroom? It stinks."
