Chapter 281

I bet he's thinking of something along the lines of “Are you really not going to give me another chance,
Anna? We've been together for seven years! Can you really let go?” I might've actually softened up and
forgiven him if he came apologizing sincerely like this shortly after our breakup, but... now that I've
fallen in love with Michael, sweet-talking no longer has any effect on me.

I looked at him emotionlessly and said in a neutral tone, “I've gotten over it long ago, Justin. I don't love
you anymore, so please leave me alone from now on. Besides, you have Mabel now.”

The thought of Justin having sex with my former best friend still disgusted me, and it was most likely
the most disgusting thing I had experienced my entire life.

Justin's expression changed the moment I mentioned Mabel, and he grabbed my hand again as he
explained, “I've broken up with Mabel ever since I realized you are the one I love. Will you please come
back to me, Anna? I promise I'll only love you for the rest of my life, and I won't betray you ever again!”

Justin broke up with Mabel? Now that's a surprise. For some reason, I can't help but feel like there's
more to Justin's request for reconciliation than it seems.

“What about your child? Why did you break up with Mabel when you two have a child together? If what
you said is true, then that just makes you a much more irresponsible man than I imagined. There's no
way in hell I'd ever be with someone like that!”

As if anyone would believe the words of a man who breaks up with the woman he has a child with...
When I found out about their affair, Justin begged me to give them my blessings, saying that he
actually loved Mabel. Did he forget what he said back then?



Justin grew increasingly anxious when he realized his explanations had backfired. He desperately tried
to explain himself again. “I'm telling you the truth, Anna! I can let go of everything else just to be with
you! Will you please believe me?”

Having lost all of my patience from talking to him, I brushed his arm off forcefully and said, “I told you,
I'm not getting back with you. Don't forget that Michael is my boyfriend now, and I doubt you'd be able
to keep your job as manager if he sees you here.”

Justin's relentless behavior left me with no choice but to bring up Michael. Since he was working as a
manager in the department store that Michael owned, I figured I would be able to scare him off by
threatening him with that.

Justin's expression became twisted the moment he heard Michael's name, and I quickly walked away
while he was distracted.

However, I had only taken a few steps when Justin hugged me from behind all of a sudden.

The thought of him being so close to me disgusted me to no end, and I struggled with all of my might
while shouting angrily, “What the hell do you think you're doing, Justin? Let go of me!”

Justin's actions had truly infuriated me, and it was the first time I had hated him so much.

“I love you, Anna! Will you please come back to me?” he shouted desperately while keeping his arms
wrapped tightly around me.

Enraged by his stubbornness, I stomped him hard on the foot and hurt him enough to let go of me.



I then seized that opportunity and ran off as quickly as my legs could carry me.

Justin used to be the dearest to me, but fear was the only thing I felt when he hugged me at the time.

His sudden appearance left a bad taste in my mouth, and I couldn't get it out of my head even after I
went back home.

I had no idea how Justin knew where I was, and I was afraid that he would keep showing up outside
my residential area in the future.

It didn't take long before my phone began ringing again, and I quickly whipped it out to see who it was
as I feared it was Justin calling.

I felt relieved when I checked the caller ID and saw Natalie's name on it.

That was when I recalled we were supposed to go shopping together, but Justin's harassment left me
feeling uneasy, so I told her I wasn't feeling well and hung up after canceling our date.

Natalie knew I had a tendency to be moody during pregnancy and didn't say much apart from telling
me to rest well.

Fearing that I would bump into Justin again, I stayed home for the rest of the day.

Fortunately for me, Michael didn't come home very late that night, and I felt a lot safer with him around.

I went up to greet him and helped carry his briefcase the moment he stepped through the door.



He broke into a bright smile when he saw how caring I was, and the two of us made our way toward the
couch with me in his arms.

“You've been cooped up at home for the past few days. Don't you want to go shopping or something?”
Michael asked with a gentle look in his eyes while I lay in his embrace.

Hearing that reminded me of my encounter with Justin earlier, and I winced in response without saying
anything.

“What's the matter? You don't look so good. Are you feeling unwell?” Michael asked worriedly when he
noticed the look on my face.

He had been very concerned about my well-being ever since he knew about my pregnancy, and I knew
he was worried about me and my baby.

“N-No...”

His question snapped me out of my daze, and I quickly averted my gaze as I didn't dare look him in the
eye.

I had wanted to tell Michael about what happened, but I was afraid he would get mad.

Knowing how possessive and petty he was, I eventually decided to keep it from him. Since it was
impossible for Justin and me to get back together, telling Michael about it would just anger him for no
reason.



“Are you sure you're all right?” Michael knew me best and asked me again after eyeing my expression.

“Yeah, I'm really fine. I'm just a little bored from staying home all day. Maybe you can take me out
shopping this weekend?”
