After marrying my boss (Anna)
Chapter 237

Chapter 237

By the time I came back to my senses, Ronan was gone.

He sneaked a kiss! Isn't he getting more and more courageous? Have I been too nice and gentle tohim recently?

I was unhappy about Ronan kissing me, but I was not as angry as I thought I would be.

Soon, he returned with a bag of beer. Still sitting by my side, he opened a bottle and handed it to me.

Instead of taking it, I looked at him and grumbled, “What did you do earlier?”

He froze for a second when he heard my question. In the next second, a cheeky expression crept ontohis face, and he grinned.

“I kissed you. Didn't you realize that?”

Glee was written all over his face, and for a moment, I had the urge to smack him.

“Ronan, have you forgotten what I said to you? How dare you kiss me? Are you asking for a goodround of beating?”

That was simply outrageous. However, the more he acted that way, the more annoyed I was.

“I've liked you for such a long time. What's wrong with me stealing a kiss? I didn't do anything to crossthe line anyway,” Ronan whined.

His words only made me angrier.

“According to your theory, if you were to have feelings for me for a few years, you'll get to sleep withme?”

I could not understand what kind of logic he had. He has liked me for a while, so he gets to kiss me?Does he mean that if he likes me for a long time, he'll get to sleep with me?

“If you want it, I'd do it gladly.”

My words were meant to be a retort, but it was as if the implication had gone over his head. In fact, hehad even twisted the meaning of my words.

Furious, I glared at him. Right as I was about to say something, he interrupted me.

“Let me tell you a secret,” he muttered as he leaned closer to me with that same grin on his face.

I was a curious cat, so my interest was piqued by the mysterious way he said that. I wanted to replace outwhat secrets Ronan could possibly have.

At my apparent interest, his grin widened. Leaning closer to my ear, he whispered, “I'm very good inbed. I can last a long time, and I'm big and long. If you'd like to have a go with me, I'll be more thanhappy to serve you.”

“Ronan, what you need is a punch!”

The shameless words of Ronan made my face flush bright red. In the next second, I smacked my palmonto the back of his head. He is so shameless to say such things to me!

When will he ever be serious? We're friends, so how can he say something like that?

Ronan was staring at me with a displeased expression, but he whined, “Anna, can't you be gentler withme? I'm a handsome man. You can't keep hitting me like this.”

“Whatever. You're not allowed to say this to me anymore. I'll smack you every time you do that.”

Actually, I was not angry with him. Instead, I felt awkward, for we were supposed to be friends andnothing more.

However, I knew that he loved teasing others, so he was only joking with me earlier.

“Do you have to be so cruel? If you won't let me sleep with you, why can't you let me just think aboutit?” he mumbled with a frown.

“If you say this again, Ronan, I'll ignore you for the rest of my life.”

He's getting more and more shameless. Even as friends, a joke like this is definitely overbearing.

“All right, all right. I won't say it anymore. I was just joking with you.”

Noticing my anger, Ronan stopped and began apologizing to me frantically.

Nevertheless, the frown remained on my face as I kept quiet. The upsetting feeling about his words

was still churning in my stomach.

“Here, let's not talk about that anymore. Have a drink. Aren't you in a bad mood today? I'll drink withyou until we drop.”

My silence made Ronan panic even more. It seemed like he realized he had taken the joke too farearlier.

Hearing that, I decided to let the matter go. Taking the beer from his hand, I then began gulping downthe content.

I didn't know when I had started the habit of drinking whenever I felt frustrated. Maybe I'll end up as analcoholic.

Knowing that I seemed to have forgiven him, Ronan sighed in relief. He then began drinking as well.Soon, the two of us finished all the beers. My alcohol tolerance was far from good; it was only twobottles before I began losing track of my surrounding.

Ronan's face had turned red from the alcohol as well. I just realized it's always Ronan who kept mecompany whenever I'm vexed about something. Honestly, I'm glad he's around.

A long while later, both of us finished several bottles respectively. I could feel my head spinning, so Irested on Ronan's shoulder, not wanting to move anymore.

“Ronan, I think I had too much...”

I could barely speak those words without slurring.

“Same here.”

There was a similarly drunk look on Ronan's face. He's no better than me.

“How are we getting home? I want to go home and sleep.”

I was drunk, and so was Ronan. Neither of us knew how we were going to make it home at that point.

“Lean on my shoulder and sleep, then. I promise I won't do anything to you.”

Ronan tilted his head to the side as he began slurring as well.

My mind was nothing but mush, so I did not know what to say. Thus, I closed my eyes and restedinstead.

However, the night by the river was freezing. At the start, the breeze felt comfortable, but soon, I beganshivering.

With that, I moved closer into Ronan's arms, trying to steal some of his warmth.

An indefinite amount of time passed, and in my drunken state, I felt someone draping a jacket over me.Ronan sobered up so quickly?

With much effort, I opened my eyes. After blinking away the blurriness, what greeted me was the sightof Michael's face. My heart sank before I blurted out, “Ronan, I can't believe I'm seeing you as Michael.Say, do you think I'm missing him too much?”

Then, I started laughing at myself.

The look on the man's face darkened right after hearing my words. In fact, I could even see the rage inhis eyes.
