Love from My Dominant Boss

Chapter 27

“What am I going to do? I still need more than a hundred thousand for the surgery. Where am I going to find that kind of money in just a few days? If I can’t get the money, my dad’s life will be in danger.”

Tears poured down my cheeks as I looked at Natalie with a hopeless gaze. Panic seized me at the thought of losing my dad.

“Don’t cry. Anna. We’ll think something. Besides, doctors love exaggerating. I’m Sure your dad’s condition isnt as bad as what the doctor said. Just calm down first. We’ll find a way together.”

Natalie hugged me tight and repeatedly consoled me.

I knew she only said that to calm me down, but my dad was counting on me to raise the money. Yet, I was powerless; I could not do anything. But how could I possibly watch my dad die like that?

“Wait, don’t you know Michael Shaw personally? He’s the richest man in Avenport. He can help you!”

In my state of despair, Natalie mentioned Michael’s name out of the blue.

I hadn’t heard that name in a long time, and my heart skipped a beat upon hearing it again. In an instant. I saw a glimmer of hope.

To my chagrin, I had made it clear to Michael the last time that we didn’t owe each other anything. If I suddenly went up to him asking for money, he probably wouldn’t lend it to me. We weren’t even that familiar with each other, to begin with.

Not to mention, he’d probably think I had some kind of ulterior motive for approaching him. I had heard rumors of him being stingy. Hence, the chances of successfully borrowing money from him were close to zero.

So I decided to come on to him again. This way. I’d be able to borrow money from him with good reason. But Michael was a big shot in Avenport; he wasn’t someone I could just see whenever I wanted to
