Love from My Dominant Boss

“Yuval, since we have talked about marriage when we entered into this relationship, I feel that I shouldn’t keep mum about my family problems. After all, we need to get along well with each other’s family after getting married.”

“Just tell me whatever is in your mind. We need to get to know more about each other before that, don’t you agree?” Yuval said as he looked at me gently.

I was caught in a dilemma, racking my brain to explain to Yuval about my complicated family issues. Gosh! I wonder if he will be able to accept it after I tell him later!

I finally broke the silence and mustered up my courage to tell him about the phone call from my mother earlier on. Apart from that, I described to him the complicated circumstance at home.

In an instant, Yuval knitted his brows and was rendered speechless. The atmosphere became tense gradually due to the utter silence between us. I was clueless about what was playing in his mind, but I would not be surprised if he could not accept my complicated family situations. Moreover, I had a feeling that our relationship might come to an end soon.

My family was just like a bottomless pit. If Yuval intended to spend the rest of his lifetime with me, he would have to be prepared to be a gold mine in order to fill it up.

Even though he was making good money with his profession, he was still not a billionaire. On top of that, the heavy burden of my family might drag him down as well.

I forced a smile and said casually, “It’s alright. My family issues are complicated indeed. You can just be frank with me if you can’t accept it. I won’t mind it. Even if we can’t be a couple, we can still be friends.”
