After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 502

Chapter 502 Not A Good Reason To Abandon Your Child

“Alicia, there’s no need for you to be so nice to me. We’re nothing but strangers,” I stated coldly as I raised my head and looked into her eyes.

Immediately after I spoke, Alicia’s expression changed. A hurt look flashed across her eyes.

However, since she was married into a wealthy family, she was the most skilled at concealing her emotions.

“Anna, what’s wrong with you today? Why do you have such a bad temper? Did I do something wrong to make you upset? If there’s anything, you can tell me directly!”

Alicia sounded very gentle when she talked to me.

“Mrs. Campbell, I hope that we’ll never meet again and that there will be no changes to our relationship. If you’re visiting me to make yourself feel less guilty, I can tell you straight up that there’s no need for that!”

Till now, she still had not admitted outrightly what our relationship really was. She kept trying to test me sometimes, but I did not like how that felt.

I thought that my words had already conveyed all I wanted to say. She was a smart person, so there was no reason that she would not understand.

“What… What do you mean? Did you find out about something?”

Alicia stared at me in shock, her expression changing drastically.

“Don’t you know that your daughter came looking for me yesterday? She said that I’m your illegitimate child.” I explained calmly as I shot her a calm look.

Alicia’s face paled the moment she heard what I said. At the same time, a guilty look crept into her eyes.

“So, you’ve already found out. No wonder you’re acting so coldly toward me suddenly.”

Alicia stared at me sadly as her voice became filled with guilt.

In the past, I was someone who would give in very easily. If she had spoken to me like that when I was still my past self, I would definitely relent. However, I no longer wanted my emotions to be so easily manipulated by such matters.

“Mrs. Campbell, I already know your motive for looking for me. If you’re trying to compensate for me, I think that there’s no need for that. I’m no longer a child, so I don’t need the so-called ‘motherly love’.”

Before Alicia could speak, I expressed my stance clearly. I stared at her emotionlessly, not wanting to hear her nonsense about seeking forgiveness.

“Anna, I know that you must be feeling really upset now and that it’s hard to accept the truth since you’ve just learned about it. After all these years, I’ve been thinking about you almost every day. Even in my dreams, I yearned to have you back by my side.”

Alicia walked to me and gazed at me, her eyes filled with grief. I could tell that she was feeling extremely sad right now. “Mrs. Campbell, if you’re here to tell me all these today, you can leave now that you’re done speaking. I have a lot of work to do.” I said coldly, suppressing the hatred within me.
