After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 123

His kiss was gentle and lingering as if he was kissing a woman he loved. His sudden gentleness took me completely off guard, sending my heart racing a thousand miles per hour. I had no idea why he suddenly had a one-eighty change, but I could not help but fall for this tender side of him.

I continued to let him kiss me and forgot to push him away as my mind went utterly blank.

After a couple of minutes, Michael finally let me go and smiled at me affectionately. On the other hand, I was stupefied.

When he was about to inch closer again, the magnified view of his attractive face snapped me back to my senses.

“I should get going now. Bye!” Panicked, I hurriedly bade him goodbye, opened the door, and hopped out of the car. As I turned around to close the door, I caught a glimpse of smugness in his eyes.

I was baffled at first, but a second later, I found the answer.

Not far away from us, Yuval was staring at me with a scowl on his face.

Seeing him made me freeze in an instant.

Michael must have kissed me on purpose a moment ago to drive a wedge between Yuval and me. How conniving!

As I stood frozen on the spot, Yuval strode toward me, and all I could do was stare at him wordlessly. No doubt he had seen us making out just now, and an explanation simply couldn’t suffice. After all, we were kissing — and that was the truth.

After a while, Yuval stopped in front of me. Currently, his eyebrows were furrowed deeply, and his usual amiable demeanor had disappeared.

“Yuval, I…” My voice tapered off into silence. Looking at him, I had a million words to tell him, but I did not know which one to say.

“Where were you last night? I called you many times, but you didn’t answer any of it,” Yuval inquired.

He did not raise his voice, but I could hear the reproach in his voice.

It was the first time he spoke to me in such an indifferent tone, given his gentlemanly personality. Even though I felt uncomfortable with it, I knew he was trying hard to keep his cool, so I felt no resentment toward him.

If I were him, I wouldn’t have been as calm as he is now.

“Yuval, is it okay if I explain it to you next time? I don’t know what to say now,” I pleaded, wringing my hands nervously.

Everything happened so suddenly, and I was not prepared for it at all. I’m so overwhelmed now.

All of a sudden, Michael’s voice rang from behind. “What do you mean you don’t know what to say? Just tell him that you stayed the night at my place, and you didn’t answer his call because we were busy last night.”
