章 128: Theft At The Harrison Company

In Michelle's room at the Wallace mansion, she glared at Richard who had just fallen asleep after stressing her out as usual. 

Michelle took her phone, reading the text she'd received from her father that day. He'd not been given entry to the Clark building, which only means that their plan to deceive Ezekiel into marrying her was on pause. And there was a high chance her father's plan would never work. 

Michelle sighed, already tired of the whole thing. She had fantasized about being the daughter-in-law of the Wallace family—as Xavier's wife, but that was no longer possible. 

Michelle made sure Richard was deeply asleep before she went to her closet, opened it, and took out a box of cigarettes hidden so deep no one would find it. 

She still smoked despite the toll it took on her health, a habit she couldn't fully abandon even though it had once led to a severe illness during her time as a heavy drug addict.
