Chapter 255\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lindsay said nothing. She simply smiled at Veronica, clearly satisfied with the arrangement.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That insolent store manager hadn\u2019t just embarrassed Michael-she had also ruined Lindsay\u2019s birthday mood.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her friends were all watching. Michael was kind enough to speak up for the other woman, but that only made it seem as though he had neglected her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winnie stared at Veronica. She wanted badly to curse her out, but Veronica tilted her chin slightly, the gesture an unmistakable provocation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At the last moment, reason prevailed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If she slapped Veronica now and blew up the entire event, it might feel satisfying-but this was business involving the Morrison family. She would inevitably be left with another mark against her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Over the years, Winnie had taken more than her share of hidden losses for acting on impulse. Compared to those, what did this even count as?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Wasn\u2019t Michael just trying to get back at her? Fine-she\u2019d consider it paying off a debt.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winnie lifted her brows, defiance flashing in her eyes. Without a word, she turned and reached for the wine bottle.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Suddenly, a strong arm dropped down in front of her-a Rolex gleaming at the wrist. Michael gripped her hand firmly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His palm burned with heat, making her heart jolt.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winnie looked up, straight into the depths of his dark, unreadable eyes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michael\u2019s features were sharply defined, his eye sockets slightly sunken. Even at rest, he carried a gentle, almost wistful melancholy. Now, with his expression grave and his gaze fixed firmly on her, a sudden surge of\u00a0<\/p>\n
emotion rose in Winnie\u2019s chest.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They had long since become strangers. He hated her to the core-\u00a0<\/p>\n
So why was he looking at her like this?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLet go.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winnie met his eyes and tossed out the two words coldly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Everyone stared at Michael in shock. The friend beside him feared he might lose control in front of Lindsay and quickly cleared his throat as a warning.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lindsay hadn\u2019t expected Michael to touch another woman right in front of her either. She shifted uncomfortably in her seat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can\u2019t handle alcohol. Why push yourself like this?\u201d With a firm motion, he slid the bottle out of Winnie\u2019s grasp, forcibly taking it away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Michael straightened and spoke in a deep voice to Veronica, who was still watching the drama unfold.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Veronica, don\u2019t make things difficult for her. I\u2019m only here to celebrate my fianc\u00e9e\u2019s birthday. There\u2019s no need for all these unnecessary theatrics. Let\u2019s not make everyone unhappy. Besides, Lindsay isn\u2019t someone who nitpicks over such things.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
He spoke calmly, almost indifferently, yet his presence carried undeniable authority.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winnie\u2019s heart stirred. She suddenly felt that Michael was different from before.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Back then, when he followed her around, he\u2019d been like the boy next door-easygoing, without a trace of airs. But now\u2026 he was clearly a mature man with presence and resolve.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Veronica hadn\u2019t expected Michael to defend Winnie. His words-\u201cmaking things difficult\u201d-left her momentarily at a loss.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lindsay, too, was boxed in by Michael\u2019s stance. She could only respond with a reluctant smile. \u201cIt\u2019s fine, Victoria. Since Michael is celebrating my birthday today, we\u2019ll do things his way.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her voice was gentle, but her friend beside her was still indignant, shooting Winnie a sharp glare.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLindsay is kind and beautiful. You got off easy this time. But Victoria, the service quality at your family\u2019s stores really needs improvement. Even a store manager should be someone who knows how to handle situations\u2014not someone who creates trouble.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Veronica let out a cold laugh but said nothing, forced to watch as Winnie walked away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Not long into the party, Lindsay went alone to the restroom. As she was touching up her lipstick, Veronica appeared beside her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m really sorry about earlier, Lindsay,\u201d Veronica said with a bright smile. \u201cYou weren\u2019t upset, were you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lindsay immediately returned the smile. \u201cOf course not. I\u2019ve always liked your store. Celebrating my birthday here makes me very happy.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
