Chapter 76: A New Way to Seduce
The next morning, Chloe woke up and stretched.
She ended up touching something warm and soft.
She jolted awake, eyes wide with fear. Michael sat beside her, fully dressed, his gaze locked onto hers.
"Is this your new way of trying to seduce me? Playing hard to get?"
Chloe trembled.
She glanced down instinctively and noticed her shoulder strap had slipped, subtly revealing a hint of her chest.
Her cheeks flushed instantly as she wrapped herself in the blanket.
Chloe replied coldly, "Yeah, everything you said is spot on!"
Chloe started to sit up, ready to slip on her shoes, but Michael pulled her back down onto the bed.
He looked down at her. "You planning to leave?"
They were so close, Chloe's eyelashes brushed against Michael's check.

He could feel her warm breath. Her subtle scent lingered in his
nose.
Michael swallowed hard. Chloe felt his erection.
She shoved him away, shock written all over her face. With a swift move, she slipped out of his grasp.
"I told you, I have my period. Mr. Shawn, chill out!"
Chloe bolted into the bathroom, slamming the door and locking it behind her. She didn't even remember to grab her slippers.
She thought Michael was getting weirder and weirder.
Chloe wondered, "Is Michael acting like this because it's mating season in spring?"
Chloe lingered in the bathroom for what felt like ages. When she finally stepped out, Michael was gone.
She felt a wave of relief and sank onto the bed.
Michael left the master bedroom, feeling frustrated.
He used to control his desires, but lately, they've been spiraling out of control.
He never actually thought about divorcing Chloe.
He just wanted Chloe to stop arguing with him.

Michael was getting ready to head to the office. Just as het slipped on his jacket and was about to change his shoes by the door, his phone buzzed. Seeing the note on the screen, he quickly picked up the phone.
He heard Lucy crying.
Michael frowned. He hung up the phone and headed straight upstairs.
Chloe was about to leave when Michael stormed in, fury in his
eyes.
She was confused. In a flash, Michael grabbed her wrist and yanked her toward him.
"Ouch! That hurts!"
Chloe had no clue what Michael was up to.
"Chloe, when will you ever stop?"
"What did I do?"
Chloe struggled hard, trying to free her wrist. But he wouldn't let go. Her skin turned red under the pressure.
Michael stormed out like a raging beast, only to return even angrier.
Thinking about the call he just had, Michael's mood turned dark

and menacing.
"Do you even realize what you've done? Why do you have to torment Lucy? What did she ever do to deserve that from you?"
