The Billionaire's Kick Ass Wife

The Billionaire's Kick-Ass Wife Chapter 496

Erica suddenly came back to her senses. She turned her head and saw Michael beside her.

Panic flashed across her face as she asked in surprise, W... When did you get here?'

Michael looked at her expressionlessly and said, ' I was here long enough.'

Only then did Erica remember something. She looked in Frieda's direction, but she had already disappeared.

The veins on Michael's forehead twitched. He said, I've carried Frieda to the car. I need to send her to the hospital. Let's go, Erica."

Erica answered as though she was in a daze. Then she suddenly remembered that she still had to settle the business here.

Since Frieda's injuries had been treated, Erica wanted to deal with another matter.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

She said to Michael, "Send Mom to the hospital. I still have something to settle.'

With that, she ignored Michael and turned to look at Philip.

She looked miserable and said, "Philip, as you can see, the Wheeler family is in dire straits now. Michael can't help at all, unlike you. I beg you, for the sake of our past relationship, ask the Barker family to give the Wheeler family a chance. The Wheeler family is about to go bankrupt..."

As Erica spoke, tears streamed down her face. She even tried walking in the direction of Philip.

Philip was expressionless. He tightened his grip on Jeanne and took a step back. He ignored Erica and said to Michael, "Michael, your wife has probably lost her mind. Do what is necessary." With that, he turned around and left with Jeanne in his arms.

"Philip!"

Erica stared at Philip's tall and burly figure and thought of his family's power. She suddenly lost her rationality and ran after Philip. Then she reached out to try and grab him.

Michael stopped her by pulling her back.

Fury rose in Erica's heart, and she slapped him.

Erica's slap was so hard that Michael's head turned involuntarily, and there were five clear finger marks on his face.

His eyes were filled with shock.

Erica was also stunned for a moment. When she regained her senses, she cried loudly, 'Why are you stopping me? What right do you have to stop me? Look at yourself! Look at yourself! How can you compare to him...'

Michael did not say a word.

He looked away, ignoring the disdain and indifference in Erica's eyes, and said, "They are not going to be bothered with you. Erica, if you're not worried that your mother will bleed to death, you can continue your nonsense here!"

Erica looked at Philip, unwilling to give up. He had already walked far away with Jeanne without looking back.

Her eyes turned vicious but in the end, she gritted her teeth and walked toward the car. "Let's go."

She said coldly.

Michael followed.

Michael walked to Isabella and Draxton and said, "I'm sorry for all the trouble caused.'

Isabella Thompson waved her hand and said, "It has nothing to do with you."

Michael looked at Patriarch Barker again and said, 'Patriarch Barker, they won't come again in the future."

Patriarch Barker nodded.

Soon, the entrance of the Barker Residence was quiet again.

Frieda's blood had been cleaned up, and the road for Michael to drive away was cleared.

Michael did not say anything along the way. After sending Frieda and Erica to the hospital to settle down, he finally calmed down.

He walked into Erica's ward and saw her lying on the hospital bed.

Michael looked at her in silence for a long time without saying a word.

Erica said irritably, "Michael Flouder, what's the meaning of this? Why are you staring at me? I am in a very sorry state, right? Yes, the Wheeler family is finished, and you didn't do anything to help!"

"Is the Wheeler family the only thing you care about? Did you ever really care about Shelly after that terrible incident happened?" Michael asked.

"Why wouldn't I care? If I didn't care about her, why would I take revenge on Yvette Barker? Do you remember that I was injured too? Michael Flouder, are you blaming me?"

Michael's eyes turned cold. "It was Jerico Chancely who assaulted Shelly. It was because of the Wheeler family."

Erica suddenly widened her eyes and said, "What do you mean? Are you blaming the Wheeler family now?"

"Haven't you thought about it?" Michael asked.

"No wonder you didn't do anything to help the Wheeler family. So, you're blaming us. Yes, Jerico Chancely is to blame for causing hurt to Shelly. But what can the Wheeler family do? It's fine if you don't help, but blaming us?"

"Us?" Michael narrowed his eyes. He was very tired, extremely tired.

After a moment of silence, he looked at Erica's disdainful and resentful eyes and said softly, "I want a divorce."

Erica's eyes became even bigger.

She looked at Michael in disbelief and repeated, "Divorce?"

She did not expect Michael to want to divorce her.

Erica thought that Michael would never say such a thing in his life.

She knew very well that Michael loved her.

But now, he actually wanted to divorce her.

For a moment, Erica was befuddled. She could not react at all.

"In your heart, I can never be like Philip Lockwood. Perhaps, just as you said, I'm completely useless.

"You've never let go of your obsession with Philip Lockwood, and you've never liked me. Since that's the case, why do you want to spend the rest of your life with me?

"If I had known, I would never have proposed to you, and you should not have agreed to my proposal.'

Erica looked at him in a daze. Suddenly, she scoffed and said, "Michael Flouder! I see everything now! You know that the Wheeler family is going bankrupt, so you want to divorce me, right?" Michael moved his lips, wanting to say something, but in the end, he only replied weakly, 'You can say whatever you want."

Erica was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes. She said fiercely, "Alright, so be it. We'll get a divorce. I want half of the Flouder family shares."
