After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 462

Chapter 462 Resigned

“I’m sorry. It was all my fault. I’m sorry to have brought this upon you.” He patted my back gently as he tried to comfort me, and his tone sounded extraordinarily gentle.

I could not even remember the last time he talked to me in such a manner. In fact, I had thought we were going to be enemies throughout this lifetime.

I wept for a long while in his embrace as though I was releasing the tears I accumulated over one year. After some time, I lifted my head from his chest.

He kept his arms wrapped around me and did not say anything. By then, his clothes had become wet and disheveled due to my tears.

“Have you finished crying?”

While asking softly, Michael reached out his hand and wiped the tears off my face.

Upon hearing that, I was somewhat embarrassed since it was the first time I had cried in someone’s embrace for so long.

Nevertheless, I felt relieved after finding out that he did not abandon me back then. It was as though a weight had finally been lifted off my chest.

“Since when did you know about this? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

I lifted my head and looked into his eyes anxiously.

“I just found out these few days. Actually, I have been suspecting it since you mentioned I was the one who left the signed divorce agreement behind,” he said after staring at me for a long while.

“Did you find your father?” I asked coldly. After all, his father was the reason the whole incident happened.

“Yes,” he responded curtly and did not say anything else.

At that, I lowered my head and kept silent. I did not know how to react since the person in question was his father. Nevertheless, it would be impossible for me to forgive him at this point.

“Since you have found out the truth now, can you come back to me?”

He suddenly changed the topic, probably worried that I might overthink. As his lips curled into a slight smile, anticipation filled his gaze.

I was overwhelmed with excitement as well after finding out the truth. However, I fell silent after hearing his question.

Even though he had nothing to do with what happened, his father did. There was no way I could go back to him and pretend nothing had happened.

“Let’s talk about this later. I haven’t made up my mind about how to deal with your father. After all, he separated me from Amaury for one year. You have no idea how miserable I have been throughout this one year. I can’t act as if nothing happened.”

I wanted to forgive Lincoln for Michael’s sake. However, what the former did was too much, and I was not a saint, so there was no way I could let this matter drop so easily.

Right then, Michael’s smile vanished as though he read my mind, and he stared at me solemnly.

“He was only upset because my mother got hospitalized and was in a coma. Plus, you took the blame for everything that happened. That was why he did such a thing to you.”
