Love from My Dominant Boss Chapter 345

Looking in the mirror, I was wearing a white wedding dress and exquisite makeup at the moment. Having my wedding with Michael on that day was still pretty surreal for me.

While I was immersing myself in blissfulness, someone knocked on the dressing room door.

“Come in!” I shouted toward the door in response. Due to the vast number of guests participating in my wedding, I had no idea who that person was.

A few seconds later, a middle-aged woman came into sight. It was Ronan’s mother, Elisabeth.

Before my wedding with Michael, I had never met Elisabeth. Sure enough, that day was the first time I met her. Her elegant attire was a sure sign that she was from the upper echelon.

Nevertheless, that was not my matter of concern. What I cared about was why Elisabeth had to appear before me all of a sudden. Based on my intuition, it must be related to Ronan.

“What brings you here, Aunt Elisabeth?” Since I was already married to Michael, I called her Aunt Elisabeth as Michael did earlier as an act of courtesy, regardless of her reason for coming to me.

“I was bored out there, so I decided to have a chat with you. I hope I’m not disturbing you, Anna.” Elisabeth walked toward me while uttering those words. Even though she looked cordial on the surface, I knew she must have a specific thing she wanted to talk about with me.

“What are you saying, Aunt Elisabeth? You’re my aunt now! If anything, I’m happy that you’re here to visit me. Please, have a seat.” Despite feeling anxious in my heart, I still demonstrated politeness

toward Elisabeth. After all, not only did I already start calling her Aunt Elisabeth, but she was also Ronan’s mother.

Upon hearing my words, Elisabeth threw me a smile and sat on the couch opposite me while scrutinizing me.

In all honesty, I was not too fond of her looking at me in such a manner, but I could not say anything in response. Therefore, the only thing I did was lower my head slightly to avoid her gaze.

“You and Ronan know each other. Am I right, Anna? I noticed him staring at you earlier.” Elisabeth took the initiative to break the momentary silence. Although I had speculated that she came to see me because of Ronan, her words still caused my heart to churn. The last thing I wanted was for any unpleasant surprises to happen again on my wedding day.

“Yeah. We met a few months ago. We’re friends.” I had to state the relationship between Ronan and me to Elisabeth clearly to prevent misunderstandings from happening. Having a relationship other than being ordinary friends was utterly impossible with Ronan.

“Friends? Are you both merely friends?” It seemed like Elisabeth had expected me to give such an answer as she had a calm countenance instead of being surprised. That reply she gave was to test me without question.

I could discern what she was indicating as I was not a fool. Anyhow, I still had to give her a serious answer, even though I was unhappy with her suspicion.

“Apart from being friends, he should be my relative since I’m married to Michael,” I answered Elisabeth while flashing her a faint smile. There was nothing for me to be guilty about as I knew she was only there to see me because of Ronan’s reaction earlier.

“Hmm, but why do I feel like Ronan has a peculiar affection toward you? Can you tell me what type of friendship you have with him, Anna?” Elisabeth looked courteous to the casual eye, but as before, I knew she was testing me.

Being suspected was an awful feeling. More significantly, it was my wedding day with Michael. I thought the subject of every conversation should only go back and forth between Michael and myself, not other unrelated persons.

“Today is my wedding day with Michael, Aunt Elisabeth. Besides, we’re madly in love with each other, as you may have noticed. You will give us your blessing sincerely, right?” I tried my best to smile at Elisabeth while looking into her eyes. If she were not Ronan’s mother, I would not have been patient for so long. Still, that did not mean I could continue to bear with her constant testing.

Albeit recognizing that I was responsible for Ronan’s current state, I had already made things unambiguous to him a while back. It was his problem that he could not recover from his broken heart. Regardless of what others might say, I did not think it was my fault at all. One must realize that love is selfish.

As an astute woman, Elisabeth must have detected the anger in my tone. She stiffened her face for a moment before putting on a smile straight away.

“Of course. For me, Michael is like my son. My only wish is for him to have a blissful life during his marriage. I also recognize that you’re both genuinely in love with each other. I hope both of you will live happily ever after.” Those polite remarks from Elisabeth were pretty brilliant. I did feel a hint of hostility from her tone, but she was acting mannerly on the outside. It would be improper to say something disrespectful to an elder too. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

“Thank you for your blessing, Aunt Elisabeth. I’m confident that being together with Michael will bring me nothing but joy,” I responded to her amicably and curled my lips into a smile.

Given that I had already produced an unequivocal explanation, it was up to Elisabeth herself to determine the legitimacy of my words.

In response, Elisabeth gazed at my face as though she was trying to figure something out. Consequently, I furrowed my brows as I was not used to being looked at in such a manner. Nonetheless, I refrained from saying anything.

The second she was about to make an utterance, the dressing room door opened. To my delight, it was the charming Michael. His eyes flickered when he saw Elisabeth.

“Why are you here, Aunt Elisabeth?” Michael promptly concealed his true expression from his face and strode toward us while putting on a half-smile.

“I’m here to see your bride. Since I’ve never met her before, this is the perfect opportunity to get to know her.” Once again, Elisabeth spoke civilly. I felt a little speechless by her response because I knew her purpose for seeing me very well.

“What do you think about my bride then, Aunt Elisabeth? Isn’t she beautiful?” replied Michael.

He had probably comprehended the reason for Elisabeth’s appearance as he was an intelligent man.

“She is, Michael. You have keen eyes indeed.” Elisabeth shot me a glance before answering Michael.

“Ronan might bring a gorgeous-looking daughter-in-law to meet you in the future as well.”
