After Marrying My Boss

Her eyes were filled with hostility as my words had dealt a heavy blow to her ego and pride.

“Who the hell do you think you are? This is between the three of us, so you'd better stay out of it or I'll beat you up too!”

The woman was extremely arrogant because of her connection with the police and treated the police station like it was her own.

“You're full of sh*t!”

In the face of such an uncivilized person, I couldn't help but temporarily discard my mannerisms and hurled abuse at her. I thought Mabel was terrible, but this woman made her seem mild in comparison.

Smack!

The woman slapped me across the face. That was the second time she had hit me that day, and all I could do was glare daggers at her in response.

This world sure isn't fair... Are we really supposed to just let her hit us to her heart's content simply because she has connections with the police?

“You've locked us up and hit us both, even when you were the one at fault by attacking first! Now that you've gotten your revenge, what more do you want from us?” I shouted angrily at the woman.

As much as I wanted to slap the living daylights out of her, our main priority at the time was to ensure that we could both leave the police station.

“Oh, are you submitting to me now that you know how powerful I am? It's too late to beg me for mercy now! No one has ever dared to hit me, so you girls have to pay the price for doing so!”

She showed no intention of letting us go even though I had submitted to her. Judging by her tone of voice, she was determined on sending the two of us to prison.

As if she had turned into a completely different person, the woman turned toward John and said in the sweetest voice possible, “Hey, Johnny! Would it break your heart seeing me put your ex-girlfriend in prison?”

Seeing an old woman acting all coquettish with a young man gave me goosebumps all over, and I couldn't help but question John's taste in women. Natalie is at least a thousand times better than her, so why did this scumbag pick that old woman instead?

“Of course not! You are the only woman that could possibly break my heart!”

John's tone was dripping with affection when he said that.

The woman threw herself into his arms and shot Natalie a gleeful smile, much to our disgust.

“But she's your ex-girlfriend, Johnny! Are you sure you won't feel a thing at all?” the woman asked as she looked up at John, seemingly dissatisfied with his answer.

“Like you said, she's my ex-girlfriend. She's practically a stranger to me now, so why would it break my heart to see her get sent to prison?” John replied and gave her a kiss on the lips.

While I was disgusted to no end by their blatant display of affection, Natalie seemed upset and disappointed instead as she looked away with tears in her eyes. Her response was perfectly understandable, as it would definitely hurt anyone to see their lover getting intimate with someone else.

Not wanting to see her cry over someone like John, I leaned in close and whispered into her ear, “Ignore them, Natalie. This scumbag isn't worthy of your tears.”

Natalie was a strong girl and held her tears back after hearing what I said.

“If you truly love me, then help me get my revenge on these two over here. You saw them hit me, so you know I have to make them pay!”

The woman continued her coquettish act and nuzzled her head against John's chest. If anything, they were more of an eyesore than a sight for sore eyes.

John froze for a second upon hearing what she said, but was quick to put on his gentle look once again as he stared at the woman in his arms.

“Revenge? Didn't you already get your revenge just now? I think we've done quite enough. Come on, let's go. Don't want to cause too much trouble in a police station now, do we?”

John was a cowardly person, and the fact that he had lost his usual insolent attitude showed how stressed he was being inside a police station.
