After divorce I am a billionaire
Chapter 448 This time it's my turn to chase you for a yearShe said this explicitly to Jamie, but in reality she was telling Micah that she was not willing to engage with him.
Micah's face changed slightly.
Jamie was a person who could read people's minds, and said immediately, "Abigail, engagement is not the same as marriage.
After the engagement, you can first fall in love. When you want to get married, you can get the license." "But | don't want to be in a relationship." She sounded resolute, "For more than a year, there have been too many bad things. I'm really not in the mood. | just want to work now and be the successor of the Matthews Group." She turned her head to go upstairs and left the living room without looking back.
With the bedroom door closed with the sound of bang from upstairs, the living room once again fell into dead silence.
Jamie and Katelyn looked at Micah after looking at each other.
Micah's eyes looked downcast. Seemingly, he was in contemplation. No one was able to see his emotion.
Katelyn cautiously and tentatively asked, "Mr. Micah, do you like Abigail?" "Yes." Micah's tone was light, "But what | did before hurt her. She didn't accept it, and | understand." Katelyn: "Abigail has been spoiled by us since childhood. She's very stubborn. If you really like her and want to be with her, | can help you to persuade her." Micah thought about it and felt embarrassed to be too much trouble, "This is between her and me. If you persuade her, I'm afraid it will make her resent more. If she is not willing to get engaged, | can wait." "She waited for me for a year before, and | can wait for her for a year this time." With his words, Katelyn and Jamie were relieved at the same time.
Katelyn: "Mr. Micah, don't worry. | won't persuade her, but | can help you create opportunities to spend time with her." Micah looked up to her.
This time, there was no refusal.

"Baby, it's time for dinner. Hurry up. They're all waiting for you." "Got it." Abigail sat in front of the computer, finished the last sentence of the project, rubbed her sore shoulder, and got up to go downstairs.
She didn't even notice the difference until she walked to the dining room.
Micah was the only one sitting by the long table.
Katelyn and Jamie were nowhere to be seen, and on the dining table, there were candles.
Was this obviously intentional to create an opportunity for her and Micah to have a candlelight dinner? Her mom and dad were too idle.
She shook her head helplessly and turned decisively to leave.
Glancing at her to leave, Micah immediately got up and clutched her wrist in time.
"Abigail, you should notice the good intentions of your parents. Can we talk?" Abigail's face was expressionless, "We have nothing to talk about.” She tried to leave, but her wrist was clutched tightly by Micah.
Micah looked at his hand which was holding her wrist, and smiled, "Last time you came to Suham's hospital to look for me and tell me about the separation. | can see you were sad and | wanted to reach out to comfort you, but | couldn't reach out until the end. This time, I'm glad that | didn't let go of your hand." Abigail sighed, "Is there any point talking about this now?" Micah sat properly, made her look at himself, and said seriously, "Gavin Weaver is not a good man. | helped you to withdraw from the engagement you don't want to have. Now you are free to choose. is it good?" The mention of it made her angry, "Micah, you deliberately let the police bring him to my house and listened to Gavin's sarcastic remarks about me. Are you making fun of me? To show me that I'm not worthy of any man but you? Micah, I'm too cheap to be the Matthews family's daughter, right?" As she complained, her tears fell from her eyes.
At work, in order not to be bullied, she had to let herself look like a strong woman. Over time, her nature gradually became strong as well.
For this afternoon's incident, Gavin completely despised the Matthews family and Abigail, which made her hurtful, especially when it was revealed in front of Micah.
Micah took a tissue and wiped away her tears. Having learned from the last time when he wiped away her eyeliner he was careful and gentle now.
Keith did a lot of work for him beforehand, telling him how to be sweet and get her to like him.
Even if it was a cheesy love word, which sounded awkward, as long as it was sincere, the girl would be happy.
He tried to recall the romantic words Keith had taught him earlier.
However, he didn't know if he was too nervous.
He surprisingly could not think of a word. He wanted to comfort her but said, "Abigail, | ... | do not mean ..." Abigail glared at him, "So what do you mean?" "|...I didn't mean anything else. I just ..." Abigail was speechless He was playing tongue twisters with her, wasn't he? "Micah, what the hell do you mean?" Suddenly, Micah had no idea what to say.
He stared at her in a dumbfounded way and managed to get confused by her.
Abigail looked at his stupid and dumb expression, did not hold back and broke into laughter.
Micah was slightly embarrassed, took advantage of the fact that she was in a good mood and hurriedly added.
"Abigail, | don't have much relationship experience. And | don't know how to say love words, but | want to say that | really want to win you back this time. As for others, | have no comments." "You chased after me before, from Frayton to the neighbor city, and from the neighbor city quietly to Suham. It's a whole year.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHow many times your father asked you to come back to run the Matthews Group? For my sake, you all put it off. " "This time, | will chase after you instead. If you insist on not being engaged, | can chase you for a year, or even two years, as you did before.” These words were simple, yet sincere.
It was impossible to say that there was not a little touching feeling in her heart.
Abigail stared at him seriously, and smiled arrogantly, "Fine, then you can do so. If you can really persist in chasing me for a year, | will reconsider it." "Yes, | will insist." Micah was so happy that he embraced her and wrapped his arms around her shoulders.
She could feel his heart beating very fast. Obviously, he was nervous, but also happy. Abigail was slightly stunned. She struggled for a while but reached out to hug him, patting him on his broad back.
Jamie and Katelyn stood quietly, watched from the stairs on the second floor and smiled at each other.
* Lyre Spiti.
Lyra slept through the night until dinner time.
She was awakened by the smell of porridge.
When she opened her eyes in a daze, she saw Malcolm sitting beside her bed and gently blowing the beef porridge to cool it.
She braced herself to sit up and asked, "Why don't you get more sleep?" "I can't sleep. | always feel like you need me at all times. It's better to be awake." Feeling that the porridge in the bowl was not so hot, Malcolm scooped up a spoonful of porridge and passed it to her lips in a doting manner, "Be careful of the heat." Lyra opened her mouth, chewed, and enjoyed his service with peace of mind.
Malcolm said, "By the way, Rara, just now the Callahan family announced Melissa's identity and is going to hold a big return party for her in seven days. She will officially change her name to Melissa Callahan on that day." "It's been decided?" Malcolm nodded, "Right." It was always good to take back the identity that belonged to her.
But Lyra remembered what Melissa had said to her alone at the party last night, and always felt that there was something odd about it.
