Love From My Dominant Boss Chapter 571
Chapter 571
Chapter 571 I Have Never Slept With Her
I was alone in my bedroom, feeling terribly disturbed. I did not know how to ask Michael about this matter, as I was afraid that the answer he gave would be unacceptable to me. I really could not accept any replies that would be damaging to our relationship.
In the evening, when Michael came home, he saw me walking to and fro in our bedroom. His handsome brows knitted and he looked at me with a puzzled expression. “What’s the matter? Are you ill?”
Michael put down his attaché case and walked up to me, looking at me with concern in his eyes. Looking at his handsome face, I was reminded of the child Leanne wanted me to meet; instinctively, I pushed him away.
“Why are you acting crazy again? Are you having another episode?” My moods have been weird lately and when Michael saw me acting this way, he became angry quite obviously. “Michael, there is something I want to talk to you about.”
If he lost his temper with me for no reason, I would definitely be angry, but now I was not in the mood to disagree with him over anything. What I cared about was the problem with Melvin, and what concerned me was the question of the child Leanne had with him.
Michael could see that I was serious, so he did not say anything else even though he was angry. He looked into my eyes and asked quietly,” What’s it about?”
I looked him squarely in the eyes, and asked him in a serious tone, “Have you ever slept with Leanne?”
Presumably, he did not expect such a question. Michael was at first surprised, and then, angry.
“Anna Garcia, will you stop harping on that? Leanne has disappeared from our lives, lately. Why do you keep talking constantly about what happened in the past between her and me? What’s the use in questioning that?”
Michael’s brows were knitted tight and he looked at me with displeasure in his gaze which I could discern. He was really upset with the question I asked.
“I am not harping about that, am I? Now, between the two of you, there is suddenly an extra child. Shouldn’t I figure out what’s going on? My man has an illegitimate child with his ex-girlfriend, and I only found that out only today. Do you know what a huge blow that is to me?”
At his words, I replied in a voice choked with emotion. At the same time, my eyes were blurry with tears, and my heart was broken into fragments.
I do not know why things turned out this way, or why our relationship was always under threat. In fact, I was also a very possessive woman, so when I thought about my man once making love with other women in bed, my heart ached as if being squeezed tightly by someone’s hand.
“Child? What child?”
Michael had detected the main point in my words. Looking me directly in the eyes, he asked in a serious tone.
“Leanne met me today. She showed me the child you two had. It’s a boy, about five or six years old. Michael Shaw, you owe me an explanation.”
I took a deep breath and tried my best to calm down, as I looked into Michael’s eyes and questioned him in a cold voice.
This was no trivial matter for the both of us. I believed that Michael owed me an explanation. The sudden appearance of an Illegitimate child was a threat to our relationship.
“Impossible! We could never have had a child.”
On hearing my reply, Michael immediately denied it, with a determined look on his face.
“There is already a child. How could I believe you when you say that you two could not possibly have one? Michael, I suddenly feel that I am such a fool. This is such an important issue. Do you know that when I found out about this matter today, I felt like a zombie? Do you know how much I had to bear in order to stay calm in front of Leanne and not flee in fright? When I saw the child today, my whole mind went blank. If I hadn’t calmed myself, maybe I would have fled in a hurry.”
“We have never touched her. How could we have a child?”
Michael yelled out these words in reply. Presumably because of my distrust, he was furious.
His voice was very loud, filled with fury, leaving me in complete shock. I stood there, completely unmoving, staring at his eyes for what seemed like an eternity.
Perhaps, he, too, felt that there was something wrong with his attitude. Michael looked at me with an expression full of guilt. Then he put his hands on my shoulders and looked into my eyes solemnly, “I have never slept with Leanne, so she could not have been pregnant with my child, let alone have my child. Are you satisfied with this answer?”
“I cannot believe that you two were in a relationship but have never been in bed together. Are you trying to console me, Michael? Do you know that this type of consoling is useless? What I want to know is how you are going to handle this matter.”
Even though the words had come from the horse’s mouth, I did not believe what he said. They were together as a couple, each with needs and desires. How could they have refrained from having sex?
“Anna Garcia, listen to me. I’m telling the truth. I’m not consoling you!”
At my words, Michael glared at me angrily with displeasure in his gaze.
I could see that he was truly solemn and my heart jumped uncontrollably. I just did not know if he was telling the truth or not. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
From the time we were together, Michael had never lied to me about anything. So, I should trust him. Yet, I had seen the child today with my own eyes. If they had never been to bed before, would Leanne be stupid enough to just find any child and put on this charade?
Leanne was a smart woman and so she would never do anything so foolish. Hence, I was torn apart. What was going on?
Did Michael father that child? Did they ever have sex when they were together?
“Can you confirm that you did not have sex with her during the time you were together?”
With tearful eyes, I looked into Michael’s eyes and sorrowfully asked this question again. Of course, I hoped that their relationship was not sexual. After all, no woman would want to know that her man had had an intimate relationship with another woman.
“I’ll say it again for the last time. I’ve never slept with Leanne! I’ve never touched her! Anna Garcia, if you ask this kind of question again, I’ll be really angry!”
Michael replied to my question with a firm voice and a steady tone.
