Switched Bride True Luna novel Chapter 24

I turned to go back inside, but I couldn’t hide my displeasure.

Emily

“Emily!”

As I stormed off down the street, I didn’t pay attention to anything around me. I kept

walking, my pace quick.

“Wait!” Warm hands clasped my shoulders, and I looked up to meet Micahel’s gaze. I’d nearly run into him.

“Not right now, I’m busy,” I told him. I pulled out of his grasp and continued to walk.

Michael trailed behind me.

“Come on, Emily, we haven’t had a chance to talk since… well…” he trailed off. He knew

very well what he did. But he didn’t want to say it. So I would.

“You know that’s not true,” Michael said.

“It is absolutely true. Leave me alone, Michael. I don’t want to see you again.” I turned to

leave, but Michael grabbed my arm.

“Wait!”

“No. I’ve had enough of this. Let me go.”

“I have evidence that can help you in a lawsuit against your family. You could get your
