Love from My Dominant Boss

As things had come to this point, I was aware that I could no longer keep her in the dark. Besides, I didn’t want to keep any more secrets from her either since she was my best friend.

When I had gotten off work, I went to the agreed-upon café to meet Natalie. By the time I arrived, she was already waiting there.

I sat down across from her, but I was momentarily at a loss for words. Surprisingly, Natalie was silent as well.

“Anna, we’re best friends, aren’t we? So I hope that you won’t keep secrets from me. I want to know about your relationship with Michael Shaw. What exactly is going on between the two of you?” Natalie finally demanded after a long silence.

She pinned her gaze on me, the look in her eyes puzzled and frantic.

Nonetheless, I continued stirring my coffee for a moment before I lifted my head and looked at her squarely.

“Natalie, it was Michael who paid for my brother’s medical expenses. In return, I agreed to his stipulation of being his lover,” I answered solemnly.

“What? You actually agreed to such a stipulation? Have you lost your mind, Anna? Do you know how badly your reputation will be affected if this matter gets out?”

Upon hearing that, Natalie abruptly shot to her feet and gaped at me in shock.

“Keep it down, Natalie. People will hear you if you shriek so loudly.”

She was very loud, so I darted my eyes around worriedly. It wasn’t until I was certain that no one was looking at us did I finally breathe easier.
