Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 1411 Make It Clear

"Second..." Sadie started, but Micah grabbed her hand, his voice shaky, "Why didn't you say anything back then?"

"I didn't get it at the time. I thought I was being set up," Sadie admitted, feeling a bit embarrassed. "I knew deep down nothing happened, but all the evidence said otherwise. I was confused and scared to tell you." "Really?" Micah was a bit agitated.

"If you don't believe me, check for yourself," Sadie said, not wanting to explain further. "When I got back to the Louis Family's castle, Barbara tried the same trick again, but I caught her. I set up a mini camera and recorded everything. With that evidence, I made Joe's parents call off the engagement. Joe took it hard and ended up with depression. He's not in a good place now."

Sadie sighed. "I feel partly responsible, but the real problem is with Duke Louis, his wife, and Barbara."

Micah was finally convinced. He'd always wondered why Craig let Sadie go and why things got so tense. Now it all made sense.

"That's the first thing," Sadie rubbed her tired eyes. "The second thing is, I won't have any more contact with Joe. I hope you can let this go."

"Really?" Micah asked again, still skeptical.

Sadie frowned. "You don't believe me?"

Micah hesitated. "I hope... you... keep your word..."

"I will, don't worry," Sadie cut him off and sighed. "Joe's not well. The best thing is to stay away and let him get the help he needs."

"You still... care about him," Micah said, voicing his biggest fear.

"Why are you stuck on this?" Sadie said, frustrated. "I care about him as a friend, nothing more."

Micah made a gesture to stop, not wanting to talk about it anymore.

Since Sadie had explained everything and promised to stay away from Joe, he didn't want to push it. Everything was clear now, and Micah felt a bit better. But he still wasn't ready to forgive Sadie completely, so he kept up his cold demeanor.

"Are you feeling okay?" Sadie asked, watching him closely.

"Yeah," Micah replied shortly, closing his eyes and keeping his distance.

"Then let's sleep," Sadie said, sounding tired. She yawned, curled up under the covers, and kept her distance from Micah.

Micah moved closer, but Sadie thought she bumped into him and turned away, moving even further away, almost out of the covers.

Micah was speechless. Sadie really didn't get romance.

That night, they both slept fitfully, pushing and pulling.

Around nine in the morning, Sadie woke up to some noise. She groggily opened her eyes and saw Dahlia bringing in some medical staff to check on Micah. Micah gestured for them to be quiet, not wanting to wake Sadie.

But Sadie was already awake and quickly got out of bed. "I was so tired, I overslept."

"It's okay, Ms. James. You go freshen up, and I'll check on Mr. Clemens," Dahlia said awkwardly.

"Okay," Sadie said and quickly ran out.

Micah watched her leave, feeling a bit disappointed.
