Love from My Dominant Boss novel Chapter 173

The woman stayed in Michael’s office for a long while before coming out. When she left, there was a happy grin on her face.

When she passed by me, she suddenly stopped in her tracks and stared at me in confusion. “Have we met before?”

Not expecting her to suddenly speak to me, I was stunned. After returning to my senses, I averted my gaze guiltily. “Really? I don’t remember.”

I had to admit that this woman had a good memory. We only met each other briefly yesterday, but she still had an impression of me.

The only reason why I had a strong impression of her was solely because she was together with Michael yesterday.

“I remember that we met yesterday at the shopping mall. So, you’re an employee of Michael’s company!”

A look of revelation dawned upon her face before she exclaimed, sounding like she was hinting at something.

Although there was a smile on her face, I could already sense her hostility from yesterday.

“Really? I don’t remember that.”

Laughing dryly, I feigned a look of nonchalance and tried my best the suppress the upset feeling within me.

Just when she was about to say something, the door of the CEO’s office opened and out came Michael. When he spotted her talking to me, he immediately strode toward us.

“Emma, what happened?” asked Michael calmly when he reached her side.

“I’m fine. When I was about to leave, I bumped into this lady. Since we met in the shopping mall yesterday, I could remember her.”

Emma flashed him a gentle smile before linking her arm with his intimately.

With their good looks, they looked like a match made in heaven when they stood together. However, I felt a little upset.

“Really?”

Michael glanced at me calmly before looking back at Emma with a small smile on his lips. I had never seen him look so gentle before.

“I asked you if you knew this lady yesterday, but you said no. Are you lying to me on purpose?”

Emma gazed at Michael in feigned anger. Although her tone seemed displeased, she sounded cute more than anything else.

Every action of theirs caused my heart to ache. However, I still pretended to be calm.

“There are so many employees in the company. How can I possibly remember all of them?” replied Michael nonchalantly as he stared at me without any emotion.

He was trying to tell Emma that even if I was his employee, he still did not know me.

Forcefully suppressing the bitter feeling rising within me, I feigned nonchalance. After glancing at Michael, I fell silent.

“I thought that you’re close to this lady. Still, how can you not have an impression of such a beautiful woman? Are you lying to me, Michael?”

Emma’s gaze flitted between me and Michael before glancing back at him suspiciously.

“Do you think that I’m lying to you?”

Instead of saying anything, he frowned impatiently. He was a man skilled at concealing his emotions. Even if he was lying, it was impossible to capture any traces of guilt from his expression.

“How is that possible? I trust that you’ll never lie to me. Am I right?”
