After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 412

Chapter 412 Let Me Apply Ointment For You

When Michael noticed the change in my emotions, a glint flashed across his eyes as he gazed at me with a complex look.

“Do you like Nicholas that much?”

Michael’s hands moved across my body gently. His voice sounded indifferent, but it was mixed with a tinge of disappointment.

“Does it have anything to do with you whether I like Nicholas or not? Michael, I hope that you’ll be clearer about our relationship. We’ve already ended it a long time ago.”

Opening my eyes, I stared at the ceiling and spoke nonchalantly.

I no longer harbored any hope for our relationship. All I hoped for was that Amaury could return to my side after I finish bathing.

“Ended? I’m the only one who can decide when our relationship ends, not you! Anna, as long as I refuse to let you go, you’ll always be my woman!”

Michael stopped moving his hands. He stared at me coldly, his eyes raging with fury.

He was still as domineering as before. In the past, my heart would pound rapidly whenever I heard that. Yet, I was extremely calm now. Perhaps, the hope in my heart had already withered, so there was only numbness in me.

I opened my eyes calmly without any expressions on my face. I wanted to ignore Michael’s domineering statement. He could say whatever he liked, but no matter what, he could never change my mind.

“Michael, do you love me? Do you hate me for what happened to your mother?” I asked indifferently as I turned my head to look at Michael’s angry expression.

Perhaps because he did not expect me to ask something like that, he frowned and fell silent momentarily.

“That’s in the past. Don’t you know very well whether I love you or not?” Michael’s tone became solemn as he gazed into my eyes.

I know very well?

Yeah, I know very well that he doesn’t love me. If he did, why would he let his father pass me a divorce agreement that he has already signed?

I was foolish enough to ask such a question now. Even though I know the answer, I still haven’t given up. By asking that again, I’m just hurting myself.

“I get it,” I replied aloofly before closing my eyes and ignoring Michael.

After bathing, he wrapped a towel around my body and carried me to the bed. After venting it out for an entire night, his fury had already dissipated. The anger in his eyes was mostly gone when he looked at me.

“Does it still hurt?” asked Michael softly as he glanced at me and moved his hand to the lower half of my body.

When I felt his touch, my body stiffened. After that passionate night yesterday, my body was still sensitive and uncomfortable.

I turned my head away furiously, not wanting to respond to him.

He’s asking this on purpose! Was he equally crazy when he slept with other women in the past?

“I’ll go now. I’ve got a lot of work waiting for me in the office.”

As for Michael, my attitude was still very distant and cold. I did not know how I should face him. I was grateful that he allowed me to meet Amaury last night. However, when I remembered that it was all because of the Shaw family that I had to be parted from my own child for a year, I did not know if I should continue hating Michael.

“Have you decided to work at Nifty Group as Nicholas’ subordinate?” interrogated Michael sternly as he stared at me with a frown.

My eyebrows knitted in displeasure when I heard his abrupt question. He was in no position to ask about my matters. However, since he wanted to know, I should reply and let him know how much I hate the Shaw family.

“I’ve been working at Nifty Group for the past year. Are there any problems? Furthermore, I think that Nicholas is a very good mentor and business partner.”

I was reminded of Nicholas. Now, I needed his help to secure custody over Amaury. Since I was not capable enough to do it alone yet, I had no choice but to stay with him.

When Michael heard me praise Nicholas, his frown deepened and a hint of fury crept into his eyes.

“Nicholas is not a simple man. It’s not a good thing for you to stay by his side. I’d advise you to leave him and the Nifty Group,” warned Michael icily.

I came back this time to oppose Michael, so he should be the one worried. Yet, he was threatening me every time he spoke. That made me feel a bit frustrated.

“Are you afraid that I’ll become more powerful and that Amaury will return to my side? I’ll tell you this clearly. I’ll never leave Nifty Group! I want to watch our company trample over Joyful Success,” I replied coldly as I stared straight into Michael’s eyes.

I did not know whether he wanted me to leave because he was scared I would be a threat to him, or because he was so ridiculously possessive that he did not want me to have anything to do with Nicholas.
