316 Chaotic Dreams
I waited for a long time, but there was no reply from Michael. I turned my head to look at him and found that Michael was staring in another direction as if he was thinking.
“Michael?
“Michael?” I slightly raised my voice and called him again.
Only then did Michael come back to his senses. He looked at me as if he had just realized I was calling him. “Baby, what did you say?”
I pursed my lips and suddenly lost the desire to communicate. “It’s nothing.”
I slightly lowered my head and looked at us, holding each other’s fingers. I softly asked, “Have you had dinner? Do you want me to bring you some supper?”
Michael combed his hair with his fingers and said, “I don’t know, maybe I did. I can’t remember.”
Michael’s expression was telling a lie. He must remember this, but why would he hide such a small thing? I didn’t continue to pursue this idea. I just leaned on Michael’s body and enjoyed the rare warm and quiet time of the day.
I was surrounded by blurry light and shadow. I took two steps forward and only felt that my surroundings were chaotic.
Suddenly, I saw Michael walking hurriedly from a corner. I called his name hurriedly, but he seemed to have yet to hear me. He just walked past me without looking sideways.
I followed his footsteps and ran two steps forward. I raised my voice and called out to him again, but there was still no response. I was angry at his attitude toward me these days. I wanted to reach out and stop him, but I didn’t touch him. Instead, I watched him walk through my body and turn into an office.
I was stunned for a moment before I realized that something was wrong. I suddenly realized that from the moment I saw Michael until now, I had not detected his scent.
I lowered my head to look at myself and reached out to pinch my arm.
What was going on? Was this reality or a dream?
I didn’t overthink it and followed Michael into the office. The office looked familiar. I raised my head and saw a huge picture with a beast logo. I realized where I was. It was the same one I saw in the surveillance room with Sasha.
Now, this was Brandon’s office.
However, Michael was the only one in the office at the moment. He was sitting on the sofa next to his desk, and his gaze lowered as if he was thinking about something.
I sat next to Michael and tried to touch his shoulder. As expected, my fingers went straight through him, and I couldn’t touch him at all.
I sighed. It seemed like this was indeed a dream.
I looked down at my body. Then, I sized up Brandon’s office. I felt that this dream was too real.
Everything here was the same as what I saw in the surveillance room, but there were slight differences in the details. I noticed this office was much livelier than when Michael’s father was here. The plants by the bed and the fabric on the sofa were carefully taken care of by the mistress of the house.
The most obvious one was the picture of them on the table. Brandon and Courtney stood side by side as they faced the camera, revealing a brilliant smile. It showed that they were an extremely compatible and happy couple.
I tilted my head and looked at Michael. I hadn’t looked at him in such a good way for a long time. His lips, eyes, and chin all looked so charming. I couldn’t help but want to kiss him.
The moment when I was about to touch Michael, he suddenly raised his head. I could only brush the corner of his lips past mine. I sighed in my heart regretfully and followed his gaze. It was his Majesty, Brandon, and General Lovecraft.
Why was he here?
I was puzzled and looked at Michael’s eyes, which instantly became cold and hard. However, looking at his expression, he was not surprised that General Lovecraft was there.
“Everyone knows each other, so I don’t need to make any more introductions,” Brandon said.
General Lovecraft nodded at Michael, but Michael only gave him a haughty look.
I stood by the side and was even more confused about the current situation. The two did not have a good impression of each other. Why did Brandon summon the two of them here?
“We’ve already agreed, so I called you two today to discuss some details.” Brandon first looked at Michael, then looked at General Lovecraft and said, “General Lovecraft, Michael agreed to this because he was considering the big picture. Since we’ve already started working together, I hope you can show the same sincerity. What you promised us before...”
“That’s natural. It’s just that the family’s internal affairs still need time to sort out,” General Lovecraft said. “I hope your Majesty can understand this.”
