Chapter 234 Mikayla smiled. âOkay, you should keep thinking this way.â
Celeste felt confused. âWhy are you talking about me? You havenât told me everything yet!â
âWhat else is there to say? Kylieâs purpose is to make Jerome believe that I harbor malicious thoughts against her. Now that she has succeeded, this matter is over,â Mikayla sald.
âI want to divorce him anyway, so I donât care what he thinks of me. Alright, Iâm in a rush. Iâll hang up first!â Mikayla ended the call before Celeste could respond.
She packed a few sets of clothes from her closet and a set of travelâsized skin care cosmetics. Then, she zipped the suitcase and went to the bathroom.
Fortunately, the injury on her left palm, which didnât affect her ability to wash up.
She just finished freshening up when Amyâs voice sounded from outside the room. âMadam, are you! awake? Breakfast is ready.â
She opened the door.
Amy immediately noticed something was wrong. âMadam, what happened to your hand?â
Mikayla smiled. âItâs nothing. You can head down first. Iâll come soon. By the way, donât tell Jerome about my hand.â
Amy was puzzled. âMadam, is your hand injured? Why canât I tell Mr. Miller? He returned after he knew you were back last night. He even asked me about your condition.â
Mikayla replied, âItâs just a scratch. Iâm fine. You donât need to tell him about it.â
She didnât need any sympathy from Jerome. It was redundant.
After Amy went downstairs, Mikayla tidied herself up and checked the time. It was already 9:30 am.
It would take an hour to get to Eduardâs place. She draped her coat on her left hand and dragged her small suitcase downstairs with her right .
Surprisingly, Jerome was still at home. He was sitting on the couch and listening to Mikeâs report.
Mike saw her and lowered his head.
âHello, Mrs. Miller,â he greeted.
Jeromeâs gaze fell on her suitcase. âWhere you going â
Mikayla put on an indifferent expression. âIâm going to accompany Grandpa to visit his old friend â
He frowned slightly and asked another question, âWhy didnât you answer my calls last night? Why did you block my WhatsApp?â
âI thought you were annoying.â
Mike felt uneasy when he heard He wanted to be anywhere else but there.
It was quite unbelievable that Mikayla had blocked Jerome because she found him annoying. In the past, she had wanted to add everyone around him on WhatsApp.
Jeromeâs expression darkened. He wanted to say something but hesitated when he noticed her attitude.
âIs there anything else? Iâm in a hurry,â Mikayla said.
âLast night-
âWhat happened last night had nothing to do with me. Itâs up to you whether you believe me or not,â she Interrupted Jerome.
He pursed his lips. âIâll look that afterward. I just want to know if you were injured last night. I returned to the elevator after comforting Mr. White. Youâve already left, but there are a few drops of blood there.â
Mikayla snorted.
âYou should save your energy for Kylie. Iâm leaving,â she said as she dragged her suitcase âMikayla.â Jerome felt strangely panicked and stopped her. âYou donât plan to return home before Grandmaâs birthday, am I right?â
