Love from My Dominant Boss

Chapter 441 Is There A Need To Pretend

“You don’t have to worry about this. I’m sure such accidents will definitely not happen in our company.”

Suppressing my panic, I pretended I was not bothered by what Michael said.

“Are you that confident? Do you really believe nothing wrong will happen?”

He raised his eyebrows and shot me a mocking look. His voice was filled with doubt.

The more he acted like this, the more uneasy I became. For some reason, it felt like an accident would occur.

“If you’re here today to mess up my thoughts, you can leave now. No matter what you say, I will not change my mind. You’re here for no other reason but to snatch my client away. Let me make it clear to you—that is impossible! Mr. Downer is my client. I will never give up on him!”

Since I had snatched his client away, he must be very furious. Although he would definitely think of a way to get his client back, I would never let him have the chance to.

“He’s just a small client. Do you think I won’t be able to continue just because I’ve lost a home appliance client? I’m just here to remind you. Don’t get yourself into trouble. I can give up a minor client like him for your sake if you’d like me to,” remarked Michael coldly, looking completely nonchalant.

It seemed like he did not mind me snatching his client away. I shook my head vigorously, denying that hypothesis. I did not want to harbor any hope toward Michael now.

“Since you said you can give the client to me, why don’t you give all your clients to me? As long as you do that, I’ll believe you.”

I did not trust Michael when he said he would give up on the client. Those were just empty promises.

“Sure. As long as you’re willing to return to my side, I can give up all of my company’s clients to you. How’s that?”

He stared into my eyes as he spoke in an abnormally serious tone.

I met his gaze. For a moment, I felt flustered. However, after I returned to my senses, I could not help but scoff coldly. He probably only said that because he knew I would never return to him.

I had to admit that he was really intelligent—he could read my mind very well. When he said that, I was excited for a split second.

“You might as well not say it. After all, you know I’ll never return to you.”

I would never be together with him for the rest of my life. Obviously, he was merely saying this to patronize me.

“That’s your problem. Since I’ve said that, I’m being serious. You can consider it. As long as you come back to me, everything I have will be yours. There’s no need for you to be so exhausted like now,” said Michael again as he looked into my eyes.

Frowning, I met his gaze. To be honest, I yearned to know whether he was telling the truth. If I return to his side, will he really give all his clients to me? Isn’t he scared that I’m manipulating him?

I really did not know how true his words were, so I kept reminding myself not to believe him. Still, my heart pounded rapidly after I heard what he said.

“I don’t need that. I’ll secure the clients I want through my own hard work. Also, don’t you worry. I want all of your company’s clients, but I will never return to you.”

The least possible thing that could happen in my lifetime was to return to Michael. I still remembered Lincoln’s threats. The more they acted like this, the more I wanted to prove to them I was capable enough to get Amaury back to me.

“Anna, you’re crazy!”

After hearing what I said, Michael jumped to his feet from the couch and glared at me furiously.

“I’ve turned crazy since a year ago. When you forced me to part from my son, I’ve already lost my mind. Michael, I’ve become like this all thanks to the Shaw family!” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

I still could not figure out what they were thinking. Lincoln ordered me to leave Michael and never appear in front of them again. Yet, Michael kept trying to make me go back to him. I could not wrap my mind around his and Lincoln’s attitudes.

To be honest, I think I should hate Lincoln the most. However, for some reason, I always transferred my hatred for him to Michael. Perhaps, I had too high hopes for him. When I needed him the most, he was not by my side. Instead, he joined forces with his father to treat me so cruelly. Till now, that incident remained an incurable scar in my heart.

Looking at how agitated I was, Michael stared into my eyes and frowned. For a long time, he remained silent. To me, he was acknowledging what I said implicitly.

“I don’t know what your true objective for coming here. I also don’t know if you’re aware of what your father told me. However, I’m not the Anna from before. I’m not the weak, manipulatable person that all of you can bully. Also, when you go back, warn your father. If he wants to do anything to me, just come at me! I will never leave unless Amaury returns to my side,” I stated coldly. I stared into Michael’s eyes as the memories of Lincoln’s warnings appeared in my mind.

“He looked for you? What did he say?”

After I spoke, Michael gave me a surprised look as if he was completely oblivious of his father’s doing.

“Michael, can you stop pretending in front of me? You’ve got such widespread sources. Wouldn’t you know if your father looked for me?”

I did not believe that Michael was clueless about Lincoln looking for me. After all, he found out about me snatching his client away on the same night. There was no reason he would not know about the meeting between his father and me.

“Do you think there’s a need for me to pretend in front of you? Do you think whatever I do is just an act? Anna Garcia, am I that kind of person to you?” interrogated Michael as he glared at me furiously with a frown.

It was true. He never knew how to put up an act. However, I did not dare to trust anyone now. For some reason, I was starting to believe that everyone around me was a hypocrite and they were all hiding something from me.

I knew my thoughts were extreme. However, this was the thought that kept invading my mind.
