Love from My Dominant Boss

Chapter 476 Gave In

The butler took one glance at me before leaving in a hurry. I kept my head down and said nothing. It would be a lie to claim that I did not feel anything at all. No matter what, they were my parents. I supposed they had come to look for me because of Steven.

After the meal, I went straight back to my room. Because of what had happened earlier on, I felt awful. However, I was pretty sure that I would not help them this time around and hoped that they would not force me to do so.

It had been a while since I returned. I did not take the initiative to contact them because when they wanted me to be the scapegoat for Steven back then, it had already broken my heart. From then on, I was utterly disappointed with them.

I knew very well that I meant nothing to my parents. Other than Steven, my well-being was of no relevance to them.

I was playing with Amaury in the bedroom when Michael walked in. He sat down beside me and looked at me with anguish.

“They’re still here. I know you’re very upset, but please don’t forget how they have treated you in the past.”

Michael spoke gently to me, but I could tell that he was trying to remind me not to give in to them again. My softheartedness toward my family had always been an issue of contempt for Michael.

In the past, he had advised me umpteen times, but I had always refused to listen. Now that things had blown out of proportion, I had to put my foot down. If I did not, Michael and even I would despise myself.

If I gave in again, I would be asking for it. I always ended up driving myself into a corner for people who did not care about me.
