Love from My Dominant Boss novel Chapter 403

Chapter 403 Reminding Myself Of My Hatred

“Since you've come back, do you think it's difficult for me to find out where you live?”

Michael's expression was aloof, but his gaze that lingered on my face was unfathomable.

Only after hearing that answer did it dawn on me.

It would be a piece of cake if he wanted to find out where someone lived. After a year of being away, I had even forgotten how powerful he was.

“Is something the matter that you sought me out? It's past working hours now, so let's just talk tomorrow if you're here to discuss business.”

His sudden appearance caught me off guard, and I did not quite know how to face him for a moment. When I saw him at the office earlier, my facade was already close to shattering.

“You don't seem pleased to see me. Do you not have anything to say to me when we haven't seen each other for a year?”

When Michael heard I was ordering him to leave, his expression turned terrifyingly grim, and a faint glimmer of rage radiated from his eyes as he stared at me.

“I don't think there's anything to be said between us. It's late, and I'd like to rest.”

Not in the mood to yak with him, I moved to slam the door shut right after saying that.

However, before I could do so, he rested his hand on the door frame and stopped me from closing the door.

“What are you doing, Michael? I said I was tired and would like to rest. Did you not hear me?”

His action had my temper flaring. We were probably considered enemies then. As he hurt me so deeply in the past, hatred inevitably churned within me at the sight of him.

“Anna, are you so determined to go against me upon returning this time? What was the meaning of you leaving without a single word back then?”

Michael's gaze turned even chillier, and his voice was interrogative when he spoke.

“What did I mean by leaving back then? You've still got the cheek to ask me this now, huh? It was all thanks to your family that I ended up being the person I am today! Michael, do you know the greatest regret in my life? My greatest regret is making your acquaintance and marrying you!”

His question amused me greatly. The Shaw family was the one who wanted me to leave. They desired me to be gone by prohibiting me from seeing my child. Yet, he was asking me what I meant by doing so. It was as though I was to be blamed for everything that transpired.

I raised my voice to a near shout when I said that. As soon as my words rang out, Michael's expression turned as black as thunder, and his chest heaved as though he was suppressing unbridled fury.

“Anna Garcia!” he snarled, seemingly on the verge of going off the deep end in the next second.

On the contrary, I merely faced his wrath calmly. If such a scenario were to occur in the past, I would have feared his outburst, but I was no longer the same person. He was my enemy then, and I would no longer be afraid of him.

“Who's here at this hour, Anna?”

I had just opened my mouth to say something when Nicholas' voice sounded from behind me.

Before I could answer, he had already come up behind me. When he saw that the person in front of me was Michael, his eyes flickered, and he naturally placed a hand on my shoulder.

As I sensed his touch, my brows furrowed slightly. Nonetheless, I did not shake him off. I knew that he was deliberately acting intimate with me before Michael so that the latter would misunderstand.

“Ah, it's Mr. Shaw from Joyful Success. Nice to meet you. Why are you here at this hour?”

Looking at Michael, Nicholas wore a slight smile on his face. Then, he courteously extended a hand.
