Chapter 147 – My Heart Hurts
Sophia started to get suspicious, so she immediately barged in without paying any attention to Jason.
After opening the door, Sophia stood still with a very dark expression when she saw the two people in front of her hugging each other.
"Michael, I miss you so much, why don't you meet me at the hotel, don't you miss me?". asked Joice in a soft, spoiled voice.
Michael took a breath, he didn't have the heart to hurt Joice so he raised her right hand and patted her back while replying, "Yeah I miss you too, and sorry if I didn't see you because I'm very busy!".
Joice was very happy to hear Michael's answer, she smiled as she tightened her arms.
"Boss…?". Jason's trembling voice made Michael turn towards the entrance.
Instantly, Michael's eyes widened when he saw Sophia standing still, holding back the roar and the jealous fire that was blazing in her heart when she heard her husband's intimate conversation with another woman.
Realizing that Joice was still holding him, he immediately let go of Joice's embrace roughly.
"Shopia… This…". Michael didn't have time to finish his words, Sophia painted a smile on her lips as she walked towards Michael.
Meanwhile, Joice was surprised to see Michael's frightened behavior when he saw Sophia.
"I'm here to deliver food for you, as well as say goodbye to you!". Sophia said as she placed the bento box she was carrying on Michael's desk.
After that, Sophia glanced at Michael and Joice while saying, "You just continue with that scene, I'm leaving now, sorry to interrupt!".
After saying that, Sophia immediately walked away with a broken heart. Sophia got angrier when Michael called her by her first name. Immediately she struggled to hold back her tears in front of Michael's employees.
"Shopia, wait… ! I'll take you home!". Michael pulled Sophia's hand because he knew that she was holding back the pain in her heart, but he also knew how his wife kept his good name so she held back her jealousy.
Sophia looked sharply into Michael's eyes, after which she roughly removed her hand and said, "No need, you have guests, so just take care of your guests!".
"Shopia, wait…!". Michael kept trying to catch up to Sophia and stop her, but Joice pulled her hand away.
"Michael, never mind you don't chase anymore! She's just your unimportant servant. We'd better continue our chat!". Joice said as she took Michael's hand and led him to sit on the sofa.
Michael lost his composure, he didn't know if this time Sophia would tolerate what he was doing or not. Instantly Michael's gaze darkened when he saw Joice who was whining at him.
Michael slowly let go of Joice's hand and explained everything to Joice.
"Joice, the woman who was my wife earlier, and she is everything to me, sorry I had to leave you and chase my wife!".
Joice was immediately surprised to hear Michael's confession, suddenly her breath became tight, her tears flowed and her expression turned pale, not long after she fell unconscious.
Seeing Joice passed out, Michael was in a dilemma, he immediately called Jason who had left earlier because he didn't want to interfere.
"Jason… Enter my room immediately!". Michael shouted, after which he hung up the phone and turned his attention back to Joice.
When he heard the screams from his boss, Jason was scared to death, because he thought that his boss would scold him and even fire him.
After answering the call from his boss, Jason went straight in and found his boss looking panicked at the girl lying on the sofa.
Michael glanced at Jason who had just arrived and said, "Please help me take care of Joice!"
Jason looked confused.
"What do you mean, boss?"
"Take her to the elite hospital right now! Because I have to go home now. You must accompany her until she recovers, when my business at home is finished I will come to see her!". After giving the order, Michael immediately stood up and ran out of his room.
Meanwhile, Jason immediately carried out his boss's orders by immediately taking Joice to the hospital.
Michael walked in such a hurry that all his employees felt confused seeing their boss looking panicked.
After arriving at the car, Michael immediately started his car at a crazy speed, his mind kept spinning how he should explain to Sophia and what she was going to do.
Not long after, Michael arrived at his house. He immediately entered and ran to his room, luckily he still found Sophia in the room, but what he didn't expect was that Sophia in the room was busy packing her clothes into a suitcase.
"Honey, where are you going?" Michael panicked and took the clothes that Sophia was going to put in her suitcase.
Sophia looked at Michael expressionlessly.
"I want a vacation".
"I'll come with you!" Michael said with his eyes starting to turn red.
Sophia did not pay attention to Michael's words, she instead continued to pack the things she was going to bring.
Michael felt uncomfortable with Sophia's attitude. He felt that something was wrong because he knew very well that Sophia's character, if she started to be quiet, it was a sign that her patience limit was gone, she would feel more secure if Sophia still wanted to complain to him.
Michael pulled Sophia's shoulder to look at her as he asked, "Honey, are you okay?".
Hearing Michael's question, Sophia's expression darkened. "Do you think I'm fine?"
Michael shook his head at Sophia's question.
"I'm sorry! It wasn't what you saw earlier". Michael said firmly.
Sophia took a deep breath, she couldn't hold back her tears, at that moment her tears spilled and she felt her legs go weak so she sat on the bed.
Seeing Sophia crying and turning her face away, Michael knelt in front of Sophia and took her hand.
"Honey, I was wrong, and please forgive me!". Michael said earnestly.
Michael felt very guilty when he saw Sophia crying.
Sophia pushed Michael's hand away roughly.
"I'm disappointed in you, aren't you married? But why are you still doing it? You're a married man, it's not appropriate to be alone with a girl let alone to hug her while saying that you miss her too. Do you like her that much?".
Michael realized he was wrong but he also had his reasons.
"Yeah I was wrong, I was wrong honey, but I can't avoid or be rude to Joice because she's been too good to me!".
"Is that the only way to thank her? Do you also have to guard his feelings by not calling me dear in front of her?". Asked Sophia in a voice that was starting to rise.
Hearing Sophia's question, Michael sat beside her and said, "Honey, you misunderstood, because of Joice, now I am in front of you, and she was the one who helped me while I lost my memory!"
"So that's why you introduced Joice as your girlfriend in front of the Charles family?" Sophia's gaze was very sharp as if ready to prey on Michael.
Michael was confused by Sophia's question, how did Sophia know about the story?
"It's not what you think, honey". Sophia felt Michael was too long-winded so she became angry and felt the longer she talked to Michael the longer she felt the pain in her heart.
Therefore, Sophia immediately got up from her seat and then pulled her suitcase which was ready.
Instantly Michael panicked, "You can't go! I'm your husband so you have to obey my orders!".
"Please step aside! I don't want to oppose you, but please let me calm myself down!". Sophia said while getting rid of Michael's body that was blocking her way.
Michael continued to hold on and didn't let Sophia go. "Honey, please don't be like this! Don't leave me here alone! I know I was wrong so please forgive me, I promise I won't do it again!".
Sophia ignored Michael's words, she kept trying to get rid of Michael's body with the rest of her strength.
Michael also hugged Sophia's body as a last resort. "Honey, please stop, remember you are pregnant, pity our child, calm down!".
Sophia continued to struggle by hitting Michael's body while crying hysterically.
"I want to go, seeing you only makes my heart hurt, my heart hurts Michael! It hurts so much to see you hugging another girl, I feel pain in your arms now. My heart won't be strong if I see you share your love with other women, my heart hurts". Sophia said while sobbing.
Michael was really heartbroken to see Sophia continuing to cry while saying that her heart ached because of him.
