After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 556

Chapter 556 Ex Girlfriend

Things had settled down however the universe would drop a blow when one least expected it. I was working that day, catching up on the many tasks that were delayed from when I was on leave, so I had to work overtime to finish them.

When my phone rang, I caught Ronan’s name flashing on the screen. Why is he calling me at this moment?

When I found out about Leanne, Ronan had helped me a lot, so I was grateful for him. I accepted the call, answering casually, “Hello?”

“What are you so busy with lately that you’re so quiet? You didn’t even call me once.” Ronan’s complaint came through the phone.

“What else? I’m busy with work. You know my company had a lot of problems recently, so naturally, I have a lot to do.”

I let out a resigned sigh, feeling exhaustion engulfing me as I recalled being busy as a bee for the past few days. “How do you still have the mood to work? I guess you’ve already settled Leanne’s issue with Michael?”

Hearing my answer, Ronan switched the topic from my work to Leanne. I had almost forgotten about her. A knot formed in my chest when Ronan brought her up. I don’t have any friendly feelings for a woman who wants to ruin my relationship with Michael.

“Can you not bring her up? I don’t want to hear her name right now. Moreover, she’s not a threat to my relationship with Michael. Michael doesn’t even like her. Her feelings were one-sided.”

Anger stirred within me when memories of Leanne calling Michael multiple times and hounding him to visit her surfaced. I’ve already tagged her as a shameless person in my mind.

“One-sided? I wonder if you’ll still say that if you knew she’s Michael’s ex-girlfriend?” Ronan said.

“What? She’s Michael’s ex-girlfriend?”

My eyes were wide at Ronan’s words. I was baffled by his news. Did he say Leanne is Michael’s ex-girlfriend? How can that be?

I have never heard of Michael having an ex-girlfriend or someone close to that. We had been together for four years and I have never heard him bring up anything about his ex-girlfriend. So how does an ex-girlfriend appear out of the blue from nowhere?

“You didn’t know that? I thought you knew. Have I said too much?”

Hearing the surprise in my voice, Ronan fell silent.

“No, you told me something important.”

I immediately ended the call after that, cutting off anything Ronan wanted to add. I wanted time to think and unscramble my thoughts from the shock of the news.

I never considered the possibility of Leanne being Michael’s ex-girlfriend. If so, why did Michael go to the hospital to take care of Leanne for two nights? What do they take me for?

I felt like a fool. All this time, I thought Leanne’s feelings were one-sided. Most importantly, I never expected her to be Michael’s ex-girlfriend.

My thoughts were a tangled mess causing panic to rise in my chest.

When a couple breaks up, they should just detach themselves from the other’s affairs and become strangers. However, Michael still cared about Leanne. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have stayed at the hospital for two nights to care for her.
