Chapter 487

Michael sounded so arrogant that Nicholas frowned and became more aloof.

“Mr. Shaw, you are now acting with such unyielding tenacity like the forces of nature, which is moresuited to doing business in the corporate arena.”

Nicholas looked at Michael with a dark expression as he spoke those words.

“Doing business in the corporate world requires one's own competence and ability. If anyone tries toachieve something by using a woman, it only shows incompetence.”

Although Michael did not say it directly, he was implying that Nicholas wanted to see me in order to getsome information that would give him some advantage.

Unsure if that was the case, I turned toward Nicholas. From the expression in his eyes which he couldnot hold back, I realized that Michael was right. Initially, I had felt guilty when Nicholas told me he onlywished to talk like old friends. Now that Michael had exposed his intentions of trying to use me to getinformation, immediately what little fondness I had for him was gone.

“Let's go, Michael. I'm tired and I need to rest.”

After knowing what Nicholas' intentions were, I did not want to waste any more time. Holding Michael'sarm, I just wanted to leave.

That was just the way I was. I hated to be used. I never thought Nicholas would use me but I hadoverestimated myself.

“Yeah, go home and sleep well.”

Upon hearing my words, Michael turned around and looked at me with a tender and adoring gaze.

Michael's love for me had always been unconditional. Perhaps we had come together motivated by thesame objectives which were mutually beneficial. However, I discovered later that he treated me wellwithout expecting anything in return.

Perhaps, Nicholas really liked me but his fondness was not as deep as Michael's. His kindness to mewas associated with getting something in return which was the reason why I did not want anyentanglement with him.Michael sounded so arrogant that Nicholas frowned and became more aloof.

Without glancing at Nicholas again, I left with Michael holding me by the waist.

Once home, I checked on Amaury. Seeing that he was already asleep, I went to the bathroom toshower.

Even though it was just a birthday party, I felt really exhausted. After coming out of the bathroom, I gotinto bed straightaway just wanting to lie still.

Michael stood up and looked down at me. Then, without a word, he went into the bathroom.

Perhaps I was too tired, I drifted off to sleep quickly. I did not know when Michael came out of thebathroom but I was awakened by his caresses. His huge hand was exploring my back amorously.

I was already exhausted and so I was quite irritable when he provoked me that way. Slapping his hand

away, I tried to go back to sleep.

However, he had no intention of letting me off. After being quiet for a few seconds, his hand was on myback, exploring again.

“Michael, that's enough! Go to sleep!”

Having been abroad for the past year, I had learned quite a few skills in the corporate arena. To me, themost important skill I learned was to control my temper. At the instant when I was most exhausted, Ireally wanted to kick him out of the bed.

“Isn't it a bit early to sleep? Don't you remember that at the party, I said I would settle scores with youtonight? You would be getting off too easily if I let you sleep now.”

His voice came from behind me, sexy and low. Then he bent close to my ear, sounding amorous.

My neck felt ticklish and I certainly knew what his intentions were. I was quite awed by his libido. Wehave been busy the whole day and I'm so tired but he was still in the mood for that. In fact, I amamazed by his stamina in bed.

“I'm really tired today. Can we do it tomorrow?”
