Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss! -
Chapter 373 Reluctant Farewell
Micah ignored her and just silently stared out the window as if her concerns didn't matter.
Sadie's brows were tightly furrowed with worry, but she knew that a head-on confrontation, like in the past, would only backfire.
She took a deep breath and softened her tone. "There's been a lot happening at home recently, and the kids feel insecure. I really need to be there for them. Once Brenda's back, I'll make it up to you, okay?" "How long will that be?" Micah finally spoke, his voice detached, but he opened a door for dialogue.
"It shouldn't be too long. You'll have to check with Doctor Rey." Sadie watched his expression closely. "I start my job tomorrow. We'll see each other at the office."
"The office?" Micah leaned in close, his hand slowly wandering up under her shirt dress, his cold lips gently grazing her earlobe. "That's not a bad idea."
Sadie knew what he was implying and quickly clarified, "I meant seeing each other, not... you know..."
"Stop pretending." Micah captured her earlobe with his teeth, his hot breath stirring her already frantic heart. "Your body doesn't lie..." "Micah... oh..."
Before she could finish, Micah's lips sealed hers.
His imposing kiss pried her lips apart and invaded her mouth, claiming every inch of territory fiercely...
Sadie couldn't resist his kiss. She could only yield as he took what he desired, but her anxiety caused her delicate frame to tremble in his arms...
Up front in the driver's cabin, Andrew sensed the commotion behind and quietly drew the partition.
The driver, the same Alan as before, was just as jittery as last time. His hands were shaking on the steering wheel, his face flushed crimson.
"Cough, cough!" Andrew cleared his throat and commanded in a low voice, "Focus on the road."
"Oh!" Alan responded, then cautiously asked, "Why does Micah always like it in the car?"
"It's the thrill," Andrew replied nonchalantly.
"Huh?" Alan couldn't comprehend.
"Don't ask if you don't get it. Just drive," Andrew ordered coldly.
"Oh!"
...
"Forget it, I'll let you go!" Micah didn't go further. At the critical moment, he reluctantly pulled away from Sadie, rested his forehead against hers, and cupped her face with one hand, silently regaining his composure. Sadie gasped for air like a fish out of water.
"Be good, alright?" Micah nibbled at her ear.
"Mhm, I understand." Sadie nodded obediently. She knew only compliance would ensure a calm life for her and her children...
With his temperament, he'd tire of her soon enough, wouldn't he?
Once he did, she could take Brenda and the kids to another city and start a new life.
"Head to Blissful Lane!" Micah suddenly ordered.
"Yes." The two in the driver's cabin exchanged a look and breathed a sigh of relief.
The bodyguard immediately turned the vehicle and headed straight for Blissful Lane. The two places weren't too far apart. After a fifteen-minute drive, they pulled up at the entrance to the Blissful Lane community. Andrew got out of the car and went to open Sadie's door.
Alan popped open the trunk, carefully took out the newly purchased clothes, and handed them over with respect. "Miss Roth!"
"Shall I walk you up?" Andrew asked.
"No need. I can make it on my own," Sadie replied and then turned to Micah. "Thank you for bringing me back. Goodnight!" Facing her polite gratitude, Micah was somewhat taken aback. He looked at her and replied indifferently, "Sure, take care!"
As if given an executive pardon, Sadie quickly walked away and broke into a jog after a few steps, eager to get back to her children.
Micah watched her through the rearview mirror and couldn't help wishing that, one day, she would rush to see him with the same urgency...
