Love from My Dominant Boss Chapter 423

The Proposal

Before I could finish my sentence, Nicholas suddenly interrupted, “I know what you want to say, Anna. You’re trying to turn me down because you think we’re just friends and business partners, right? But I know the real reason why you don’t want to be with me. It’s because of Michael, isn’t it?”

It did not take long for Nicholas to figure me out, and when he mentioned Michael, I got even more nervous because everything he said was true. I just did not want to admit it then.

Feeling guilty as charged, I kept my head lowered for quite a while before finally deciding to bite the bullet. “Nicholas, I only rejected you because I don’t have feelings for you. It has nothing to do with anybody else. I’m simply listening to my heart.”

I knew better than to get Michael involved because it would only make things more complicated, and that was the last thing I wanted.

“Anna, you know what kind of person I am and how much I care for you. If you have my help, I’m sure things will get much easier for you. And since Michael’s out of the question, why not give me a chance? I think it’d be best for the two of us, don’t you?” Nicholas seemed to have stopped suspecting Michael, yet he was still not ready to give up.

I did not expect Nicholas to be so persistent; I thought he would just let it go as soon as I turned him down because that was what happened before.

Every time I deliberately tried to change the subject, he would go along with it. However, it seemed that he was determined to get an answer from me this time.
