After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 286

Michael’s hand froze at my words. He looked at me, an indecipherable expression in his gaze. Sometime later, he wordlessly turned his attention back to his food. I was not angry that he had not said anything in response. He was introverted, and I saw no need in forcing him to profess his love for me in all sorts of grand manners.

I know that he loves me, and that’s enough for me. After dinner, I lay on the bed, tossing and turning as I struggled to fall asleep. Our wedding was but a week away, yet Josephine still hoped that Michael was marrying Emma.

I was worried that she would refuse to give her blessings during our wedding. Deep in my heart, I knew that marrying Michael would make me the happiest person alive. Still, that did not mean that I could not care less about his family’s blessing. I flopped over and slung an arm around Michael’s waist, sighing as I did so. “

What’s wrong?” I would never grow tired of Michael’s alluring tone. “Michael, do you sometimes regret choosing me?” I lifted my head and asked timidly, gazing at his moonlit profile. “It’s late. You should get some sleep instead of worrying yourself over such nonsense.”

He frowned at my question, evidently displeased. “Well, I feel guilty. Your relationship with your mom wouldn’t be strained today without me in the picture. I can’t help but worry if this is going to make you regret our relationship years down the line.” Shifting myself to nestle in his embrace, I ignored Michael’s frown and voiced my concerns.

Michael may have kept mum about his relationship with his mother, but I could sense that my presence had driven a wedge between them. They were family at the end of the day. I did not think that my concern over his potential resentment was unwarranted.

Michael lowered his head and gave me a piercing stare. “Anna, if you insist on filling your head with such ridiculous ideas, I’ll show you right now that you’re the only person I could ever love. Aren’t my actions obvious enough? Or do you need me to repeat myself?” I knew Michael would never joke about such a thing.
