After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 339

Chapter 339 Furious Michael

Michael’s expression darkened as he took in what had been said to him. His blazing gaze shifted to Steven in the blink of an eye.

“Did I let you stay here just to endanger your sister?” Michael’s voice was ice cold. As he approached Steven, the latter panicked when he sensed Michael’s presence emitting a powerful aura.

In his fear, Steven looked at me after glancing at Michael as he approached. After that, he glanced back toward Michael many times in a row.

“Michael, I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I didn’t mean to do it.” Steven gave Michael a cheeky grin as he stared at him. However, his uneasiness was still clearly visible on his face.

“You have no idea how much Anna has given up for your sake. Every day, you’ve been slacking off at work and not showing up to the office. Even more so now that you’ve started to offend these gangsters.”

Steven’s apologies did not go over well with Michael as the latter’s face remained expressionless. He was also aware that Steven’s repentance was not sincere.

“I’m truly sorry, Michael. I promise not to contact them again. Please forgive me just once. Not to mention, I just protected my sister from harm. You can ask her if you don’t believe me.”

My advice to Steven was never taken to heart. He didn’t act like that in front of Michael, though.

Yes, he did protect me earlier, but that couldn’t erase the fact that he incited the gangsters in the first place.

“Tomorrow, these gangsters will be sent to jail. I was debating whether or not to send you over so that you might learn from your mistakes.” Michael’s fury dissipated almost immediately. As he talked, he looked into Steven’s frenzied eyes. After hearing what Michael had to say, even I was in fear.

The instant Steven heard that he would be going to jail, he was terrified and knelt in front of Michael. “Michael, I’ve definitely learned my lesson. Please accept my apologies for this one time. In the future, I swear to arrive on time for work each and every day.”

Although Steven was a jerk, he had a small amount of courage. When he heard he was going to jail, he was immediately terrified and kept promising to behave.

On the other hand, Michael was not as empathetic as I was. He wasn’t persuaded in the least. His expression remained icy the entire time. Hearing Steven’s apologies would have already convinced me if it were me.

Michael glanced at Steven coldly. He stepped right up to me, grabbed my hands, and marched out of the place before he could finish his sentence.

Riding in Michael’s car gave me a sinking feeling in my stomach. Would Michael really have sent Steven to jail as he had claimed?

Michael started the car’s engine. He acted as if he didn’t want to go into detail about Steven’s situation with me. This made my heart race even faster, as I was already anxious.

“You’re not going to put Steven in jail, are you?” Uncomfortable, I asked Michael, with my face turned to him.

“Are you reluctant to let him go?” Michael continued driving his car. He didn’t even bother looking at me. His voice sounded soft. Hence, I wasn’t sure if he was delighted or upset. I couldn’t always see through Michael’s thoughts. Even at this point, I couldn’t figure out what he was thinking.

“Steven will always be my brother. I cannot bear the thought of him going to jail. Surely you’re frightening Steven, then? You wouldn’t put him in jail, would you?”

Steven was still my brother, no matter what he had done. Of course, I hoped that he wouldn’t wind up in prison.
