Love from My Dominant Boss

Chapter 41

As I stared at Justin, who was standing a near distance away, I could distinctly see the rage in his eyes. But due to Michael’s presence, he didn’t dare say anything.

Only then did I realize that he was actually a spineless coward.

Subsequently, Michael’s gaze shifted to Justin. Wrapping an arm around me, he ambled over to him and regarded him impassionately.

“What a coincidence, Mr. Xenakis. Seems like every time we meet, I would always catch you pestering my woman.”

Michael’s voice was cold as he spoke to Justin, his handsome countenance devoid of expression. For some reason, I felt that such a side of him gave off a sense of oppression.

Ever since Justin caught sight of Michael, he appeared a tad nervous. And in the face of the latter’s question now, he seemed all the more flustered.

His imposing aura when he spoke to me earlier was all but gone, and he looked meek instead. Inwardly, I couldn’t help disdaining him. Hah! He was all high and mighty earlier, but he doesn’t even have the guts to say a single word in front of Michael now. I never knew that he’s actually such a coward!

“This is all a misunderstanding, Mr. Shaw. There are some misunderstandings to be resolved between Anna and me, so I sought her out today to talk.”

Justin looked at Michael apprehensively, his words repulsing me. Good Lord! He was clearly pestering me just now, claiming that I’m the one he loves. Now that Michael is here, he doesn’t dare admit it. Where’s that overbearing attitude of his when he was hounding me earlier?

“Justin Xenakis, there’s nothing to be said between us. Please don’t pester me anymore. Now that you know I’m Michael’s woman, don’t tell me you’re hoping that I’ll go back to you?”

Stepping out of Michael’s arms, I stalked up to Justin and glowered at him, my words bereft of emotion.

As soon as my words fell, Justin nervously cast a glance at Michael. Then, he turned his gaze back on me, his voice sounding rather frantic.

“Anna, I think you might have misunderstood my meaning. That’s not what I meant. I merely want to resolve the conflict between us. I don’t want you to hate me.”

He denied everything he said earlier, but I expected nothing less from him. As I took in his nervous expression, I couldn’t help sneering inwardly. Well, well… He’s truly abhorrent! It’s only been a few minutes since he said that, yet he’s denying it now! Sure enough, he goes back on his word in the blink of an eye!

“Oh, really? Then why did you hug me despite my protests just now? And what did you mean by saying that I’m the person you love? You’re such a coward, Justin! You don’t dare admit what you said earlier, huh? Do you know that you’re really repugnant right now?”

With a sneer on my face, I regarded him contemptuously. He’s nothing but a sissy! I really don’t know why I’d been so blinded in the past seven years that I actually fell in love with such a man!

Upon hearing that, Justin’s expression turned grim. His eyes shone with faint anger as he stared at me, but he didn’t dare say anything since Michael was there. After having said all that, I felt much better at once, my pent-up fury dissipating. From NôvelDrama.Org.

Now that Michael was here, he wouldn’t dare do anything to me no matter what I said. That was why I had the guts to give voice to the resentment buried within me all this while.

I might still be worried that he would pester me if Michael weren’t here, but at the sight of his cowardice, I decided to vent it all out because I knew he wouldn’t dare counter me.

“Anna, you’ve really misunderstood my meaning. I really didn’t mean all those things you said…”

After Justin stole a peek at Michael, whose expression was gradually darkening, his gaze turned increasingly frantic.

“That’s enough. Justin Xenakis, please don’t appear before me anymore, okay? We no longer have anything to do with each other. I’m with Michael now, and he’s a thousand times better than you in all aspects. If you have a semblance of self-awareness, never appear in front of me again!” I declared coldly.

With that, I turned around and went back to Michael’s arms. At that moment, I didn’t want to see him for even a second longer.

Justin initially wanted to say something about my frosty attitude, but he didn’t dare to when he glimpsed Michael’s grim face.

“Let’s go, Darling.”

Taking Michael’s arm, I deliberately addressed him intimately. I wanted to aggravate Justin and let him know in no uncertain terms that Michael was far better than him.

“Alright, we’re going to my house tonight,” Michael murmured suggestively while leaning close to my ear.

He hugged me tightly, playing along perfectly. While his voice was low, I knew that Justin would definitely be able to hear it as well.

Throwing an indifferent glance at Justin, I allowed Michael to lead me forward with an arm around me. When we walked past Justin, Michael abruptly halted and looked at him coldly.

“Not anyone can pester my woman, so watch yourself, Mr. Xenakis.”

After leaving him that threat, Michael strode toward the car with an arm around my shoulder without sparing him another glance.

When I brushed past Justin, I could clearly see the panic that flashed across his eyes. Haha, he’s scared now.

Only when I got into Michael’s car did I finally breathe a sigh of relief. I was now all the more irritable after having been hounded by Justin when I was already frustrated from having to work overtime. My brows knitted together deeply as I gazed out the car.

“Is Justin Xenakis pestering you?”

Michael and I didn’t speak ever since getting into the car, and a long while passed before he finally broke the silence.

“Yeah,” I replied mildly without much emotion.

“Do you love him?”

“No. I only feel repulsion toward him now,” I replied without a hint of hesitation while gazing at Michael’s profile.

I had now seen Justin’s true colors and understood the kind of man he was, so I felt really lucky that I didn’t end up marrying him.

Michael didn’t comment on my answer, but I could distinctly perceive a faint smile tugging at his lips.

He drove very fast, so the car cruised into his mansion in a little over ten minutes. It was my first time at such a place. Although I had never been there, I knew that it was a renowned wealthy residential area.

As I gazed at the huge mansion after alighting from the car, I inwardly exclaimed at Michael’s affluence.

Before I was done admiring the view, Michael dragged me into his mansion.

The moment I stepped foot into the house, the resplendent decor floored me. I gaped at the huge crystal chandelier in the living room. I had once seen in a magazine that a chandelier cost hundreds of thousands at the very least, which was equivalent to an average person’s lifetime savings.

Sure enough, there’s a world of difference between people from different walks of life. Michael Shaw is truly a man to be envied!
