Love from My Dominant Boss

Chapter 544 Ronan Drops By

“I had some work to complete last night,” Michael answered evasively. “Yesterday was the deadline. That was why I stayed in the office to pull an all-nighter.”

Without giving us time to interrogate him further, he disappeared upstairs. I was annoyed at his complete lack of accountability. He should have at least explained!

As hungry as I was, my appetite vanished at the disheartening thought. After a couple of bites, I took my leave and went upstairs. When I arrived at our bedroom, Michael had already come out of the shower. He shot a glance at me before making his way to the bed.

“What were you doing last night?” I asked. “Why didn’t you come back all night?”

Midnight was the latest Michael had ever gotten home from entertaining clients. He had certainly never stayed out all night before. His disappearance, combined with the fact that he could not be contacted the night before, made me feel a little uneasy.

Michael glanced at me. “Haven’t I already informed you yesterday? I was with a friend who needed my help with something.”

“You spent all night with your friend?” I pressed on, watching Michael’s eyes closely as I did so. “Is it a man or a woman?”

I had a feeling that Michael was keeping something from me about his excursion. Due to having experienced the trauma of being lied to, I was especially troubled by this matter. The doubt had to be clarified, or else it would just nag at me and develop into something much worse.
