Love from My Dominant Boss Chapter 345
Looking in the mirror, I was wearing a white wedding dress and exquisite makeup at the moment. Having my wedding with Michael on that day was still pretty surreal for me.
While I was immersing myself in blissfulness, someone knocked on the dressing room door.
“Come in!” I shouted toward the door in response. Due to the vast number of guests participating in my wedding, I had no idea who that person was.
A few seconds later, a middle-aged woman came into sight. It was Ronan’s mother, Elisabeth.
Before my wedding with Michael, I had never met Elisabeth. Sure enough, that day was the first time I met her. Her elegant attire was a sure sign that she was from the upper echelon.
Nevertheless, that was not my matter of concern. What I cared about was why Elisabeth had to appear before me all of a sudden. Based on my intuition, it must be related to Ronan.
“What brings you here, Aunt Elisabeth?” Since I was already married to Michael, I called her Aunt Elisabeth as Michael did earlier as an act of courtesy, regardless of her reason for coming to me.
“I was bored out there, so I decided to have a chat with you. I hope I’m not disturbing you, Anna.” Elisabeth walked toward me while uttering those words. Even though she looked cordial on the surface, I knew she must have a specific thing she wanted to talk about with me.
“What are you saying, Aunt Elisabeth? You’re my aunt now! If anything, I’m happy that you’re here to visit me. Please, have a seat.” Despite feeling anxious in my heart, I still demonstrated politeness toward Elisabeth. After all, not only did I already start calling her Aunt Elisabeth, but she was also Ronan’s mother.
Upon hearing my words, Elisabeth threw me a smile and sat on the couch opposite me while scrutinizing me.
In all honesty, I was not too fond of her looking at me in such a manner, but I could not say anything in response. Therefore, the only thing I did was lower my head slightly to avoid her gaze.
“You and Ronan know each other. Am I right, Anna? I noticed him staring at you earlier.” Elisabeth took the initiative to break the momentary silence. Although I had speculated that she came to see me because of Ronan, her words still caused my heart to churn. The last thing I wanted was for any unpleasant surprises to happen again on my wedding day.
“Yeah. We met a few months ago. We’re friends.” I had to state the relationship between Ronan and me to Elisabeth clearly to prevent misunderstandings from happening. Having a relationship other than being ordinary friends was utterly impossible with Ronan.
“Friends? Are you both merely friends?” It seemed like Elisabeth had expected me to give such an answer as she had a calm countenance instead of being surprised. That reply she gave was to test me without question.
I could discern what she was indicating as I was not a fool. Anyhow, I still had to give her a serious answer, even though I was unhappy with her suspicion.
