Love from My Dominant Boss

When I woke up at night, Natalie had already come back. Her eyes widened in shock upon seeing me walk out of my room.

“Why are you back so early today? Don’t you have to work overtime?”

I stretched and yawned while answering her. “I took the day off today.”

“You took the day off? Holy sh*t. Is the sun rising from the west or something?”

Natalie gaped at me in utter disbelief.

I hummed in confirmation but remained otherwise silent. Noticing the gloomy look on my face, Natalie started eyeing me suspiciously.

“You didn’t come home last night. Where’d you go?”

My expression stiffened upon hearing Natalie’s question, and I replied somewhat guiltily, “I was working overtime.”

“Working overtime? Why are you lying? Who the hell works overtime for the entire night? Tell me the truth. Did you…” Natalie trailed off and raised her brows meaningfully.

Although she didn’t finish her sentence, her question was very obvious.

My face instantly flushed red when Natalie figured out what I had done the previous night. I began fidgeting on the spot, unable to meet Natalie’s eyes because of the guilt that I was feeling.

“What on earth are you thinking about? I really was working overtime. I’m hungry. Let’s eat now.”

The guilt in my voice couldn’t be mistaken. With that, I ignored Natalie and quickly went to set up the table.
