After marrying my boss (Anna)
Chapter 362

Chapter 362

Sitting on the couch, I kept my head low because I knew that I looked hideous now with my reddenedeyes.

After Natalie put the grocery that she bought in the kitchen, she walked toward me and asked withconcern, “Did you ask Michael what happened this afternoon? What is going on?”

“I didn't dare to ask him. I was so afraid that I couldn't accept the answer.”

I had to admit that I was a coward, and I loved Michael so deeply that I was afraid to lose him. I waseven more afraid that our relationship might come to an end because of another woman.

“Why are you so stupid? You have to talk through it. What if you actually misunderstood Michael? Trustme. You can't delay this matter any further. You have to get this clear as soon as possible. I believeMichael is not the type of man who messes around with other women.”

Natalie became anxious knowing that I had not asked Michael about the issue yet. I knew that she washolding hope, just like me. Yet, I was afraid that my hope would be shattered.

I lowered my head and said nothing.

Natalie knew that I did not want to talk about the topic, so she did not press on the matter. Putting herarm around my shoulders, then she continued to sit on the couch with me in a daze.

Throughout the rest of the week, Michael did not come to see me. He had disappeared so completelythat it seemed like the both of us had never met.

After staying at Natalie's house for a week, I felt extremely bored. Hence, I decided to head out alonefor a stroll. Although I still had bad emotions, my mood had greatly improved over the days. Clearly,time was the cure to everything.

When I was crossing a road, a honk sounded behind me. It was a silver car, and I remembered thatRonan driving that car before. Halting my steps, I was planning to greet him.

“Anna, what a coincidence. Why are you here?”

Ronan stuck his head out to look at me with a bright smile on his face.

It had been over a month since I last saw him. Ronan looked much happier, unlike the last time when Isaw him. I felt relieved to see him happier now.

Then, I smiled at him and answered, “I came out for a walk.”

Just when Ronan was about to say something, the window of the passenger's seat was rolled down. Isaw a young girl sitting inside the car, and she looked extremely beautiful with her watery and spiritualeyes.

Looking at the girl, I was slightly stunned. She looked extremely familiar.

While I was searching for a memory of her in my mind, I suddenly remembered that she looked like thegirl who was with Michael the other day.

With that thought, I felt my heart tremble. If she's Ronan's sister, isn't she Michael's cousin? Did I really

misunderstand him?

When Ronan noticed the change in my expression, he frowned as he stared at me in confusion.

“Anna, what's going on? You look troubled.”

Looking at me, Ronan was worried. It had almost been two months since I last saw him. Even if heliked me back then, his feelings were long gone now.

“Huh? N-Nothing... Is she your sister? I thought she is your girlfriend.”

After I returned to my senses, I tried to cover up my anxiousness. Knowing that the girl was actuallyRonan's sister, I felt inexplicably relieved. It turned out that Michael did not cheat on me.

“How's that possible? I wouldn't date a man like my brother. You must be my cousin's wife right? Hello,I'm Gabriella. You can call me Gabby.”

Gabriella rolled her eyes at Ronan before she looked at me affectionately.

Since she was Ronan's sister, there was no reason for me to be hostile toward her. Moreover, Gabriellalooked adorable and lovely, just like her brother. It felt nice to have such people around me.

“Hi, Gabby. I'm Anna Garcia.”

I smiled at Gabriella and introduced myself.

“I know, I know. I've heard a lot about you from my brother. You seem to be very close to him.”

Gabriella's eyes looked beautiful as she smiled. The next moment, she opened the car door and cameto me before she hugged my arm intimately.

Upon hearing her words, I looked at Ronan exasperatedly. This guy has a big mouth. How could he goaround and talk about me? Did he tell his sister that he was going to court me when he didn't know thatI was dating Michael? If Gabby knows about this, it would be so awkward.

“Where are you guys going?” I asked in a low voice while Gabriella was still holding my arm.

“Me? I just returned from overseas, and Ronan is giving me a ride around. Anna, you're just taking astroll, right? Why don't you join us?”

Before I could even give a response, she pulled me toward the car.

“I shouldn't go with you. You just returned from overseas, so you should spend some time with yourbrother.”

I was trying to withdraw my arm from Gabriella's hands as I rejected awkwardly. It looked like Gabriellawas even friendlier than Ronan.

“Anna, it's my first day back in the country. Since we've bumped into each other, don't you want to getto know me better? I'm really an easy-going person!”

Gabriella pouted and looked at me expectantly after I rejected her. She looked extremely aggrievedwith that expression.

I was rendered speechless when I saw her reaction. Now, I knew it was impossible for Ronan to havean aloof personality because he had a sister like that.

“Yes. Gabby just returned. She has lost contact with all her old friends. Since you both are girls, youdefinitely have more topics to talk about together. Although I'm her brother, there are still things thatshe doesn't want to talk to me about, right?”

I wanted to reject her again, but since Ronan had spoken, it would be rude of me to reject them.

I felt helpless looking at the siblings. In actuality, I did not want to join them. However, since they hadasked me to, it would be rude for me to insist on leaving.

“All right then,” I replied calmly and got into the back of the car.

Gabriella was sitting on the passenger's seat earlier. Seeing that I was sitting at the back, she got tothe back and sat beside me.
