After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 162

As time passed, I felt like I was floating in thin air as my body felt frozen. I knew I was unable to endure it any longer.

Yet, amid such desperation, what appeared in my mind was the image of Michael’s figure. I was puzzled. Every time I encountered trouble in the past, he was the one who helped me. How I wished he would appear right before me and saved me like how he always did.

Nevertheless, Michael would never know that I was trapped inside the washroom, which meant he would not come and save me. At this rate, with the air conditioner’s temperature so low, I really could be dead in here.

The frigidness pierced my skin like a thousand needles, and I felt my eyelids getting heavier as I started feeling more groggy. I knew I could no longer pull myself together.

Spending the night in such torture only made it felt like forever. I had no clue how I persisted through the night till the next morning, and neither did I know how I got out of the washroom.

By the time I opened my eyelids again, I was already at the hospital, with Michael was standing beside me. He looked down at me with a face filled with worry as he knitted his brows.

“Where is this place? I was locked up in the washroom.”

My throat was parched and my body felt weak and tired.

“So you actually know you were locked inside the washroom? I wonder if there is any woman who is dumber than you?”

After hearing my words, the worry in Michael’s eyes faded immediately. His face turned darker while his tone was full of reproach.

“Someone locked me in there on purpose.”

I stared at him, displeased.

I’m so weak right now, so can’t this guy say something nice and comforting? How dare he calls me dumb? Does he not know he’s the reason why someone in the company is targeting me behind my back?

After hearing my words, Michael was stunned and a hint of fury flashed across his eyes. “You’re saying someone intentionally locked you up inside? Who was it?”

His reaction left me speechless. It seemed like he was clueless that that was a deliberate act.

“I have no idea. But I’m sure someone must be behind this.”

I was pretty sure someone was targeting me deliberately, though I was unsure who it was.

“I’ll get to the bottom of this.”

As Michael said that, a hint of ruthlessness flashed across his eyes. The look on his face at that moment got me freaked out a little.

My head was still spinning, and my body was aching all over. I had no strength at all. I thought I would have died inside the washroom when I was on the verge of fainting last night.

“Oh yes, how did you save me? Who found me?”

The first person I saw when I regained consciousness was Michael. Till now, I still had no idea who had opened the door and saved me.

“The cleaners in the company. They found you when they were cleaning the washroom. I just arrived at the office then,” Michael explained after taking a glance at me.

No wonder Michael sent me to the hospital. So it turned out it was the cleaning ladies who saved me. Since the cleaners would finish cleaning before working hours, there were probably not many people in the company when Michael sent me to the hospital. Or else he would never do that as he tried to keep our relationship below the radar.

“I’ll need to thank the cleaning lady then. If not for her, I would have been doomed.”

I tried to suppress the feelings I had in my heart and forced a smile on my face as I told him that. I then kept my silence right after finishing my sentence.
