he had dialed the wrong number when he heard Mikaylaâs coquettish voice.
He checked the phone number called, and it was Mikaylaâs number.
However, she had been acting cold toward him recently. So her sudden passionate act most likely meant that she encountered some trouble that she urgently needed to get out of.
âWhere are you now?â Jerome asked.
Mikayla told him the location of the restaurant.
Jerome didnât ask who she was with or why she was there. Instead, he simply said, Iâll come pick you up.â
After ending the call, Mikayla felt relieved.
Dealing with Irene and Taylor was too troublesome. She didnât want to get involved.
in their love affairs.
So, Jeromeâs call came at just the right time.
âMs. Sullivan, I canât teach you anything,â Mikayla said earnestly. âWhat I told you was the truth. Taylor doesnât like me, and he wonât ever like me. Youâre young, beautiful, and you came from a good family. You donât need to be too hung up on him,â Mikayla added.
She was hoping Irene could stop being such a hopeless romantic.
She could accomplish so much in her life, so would be foolish to revolve her life around a man. And doing so wonât earn her Taylorâs love.
But Mikaylaâs wellâintended advice didnât earn any gratitude from Irene. Irene was under the impression that Mikayla was never going to help her.
âMs. Davidson, I know what Iâm doing. I donât need you to lecture me,â Irene said annoyedly. âI sincerely asked for your advice, but youâre not being helpful at all!
Taylor. Mr. Blue made it clear that Iâm the only one who can be daughterâinâlaw. No other women can enter the Blue family.â
Mikayla sighed softly. She had said something similar before to Kylie.
Though back then she did it under the protection of Grandma. It never achieved anything other than to deceive herself.
Mikayla didnât to persuade further.
âThen I wish you success in achieving your wishes. My husband is almost here. I shall leave first,â Mikayla said.
As she headed toward the courtyard, Taylor chased after her and blocked her path.
âYou havenât even driven her away yet, why are you leaving yourself?â he questioned.
Mikayla glared coldly at him. âJerome is coming to pick me up. If youâre upset about it, why donât you get into another car accident with him, or maybe even fight it out.
Iâm not obligated to satisfy you or help you with these things!
âBesides, Ms. Sullivan is a good girl. If you really dislike her, you should make it clear to both families. Stop giving her false hope and making it difficult for her to let go.â
Hearing her words, a wicked smile crept onto Taylorâs lips. âOkay.â
Before Mikayla could understand what he meant, Taylor suddenly took her hand and pleaded, âCan you not leave? Please? Sheâs not my fiancée. It was a decision made.
by our families. I wasnât even present that day.â
It wasnât until she saw Irene approaching that she realized Taylorâs intentions.
She shook him off angrily.
âTaylor are you out of your mind? Stop messing around!â
Taylor looked disappointed. âWhat donât you believe what I said? Youâre leaving because of a single phone call from Jerome!â
Mikayla was rendered speechless. She found this both funny and ridiculous.
âTaylor, youâre wasting your talent here. You should be an actor instead,â she said.
IN Chapter204 With that, she saw Jeromeâs car approaching.
Mikayla ignored Taylor and Irene. She hurried over to the car.
She opened the door and got in herself without waiting for Jerome. Jerome glanced out the side of the door. His expression was gloomy.
