Love from My Dominant Boss

My mom’s displeased voice carried a hint of anger when it boomed from the phone.

“That’s not what I meant, mom. It’s just that it really is that expensive to rent a place like that in Avenport. I don’t have that much money on me, and it’ll take some time before I receive my salary.”

I was quick to explain myself when I heard that my mom had misunderstood the situation. I was troubled as well. Naturally, I’d want to get Steven a nicer environment for him to recuperate in, but I simply didn’t have the capability to do so.

“How about this, mom? I will get a slightly smaller place for the time being and will find everyone a better place after I receive my salary next month.”

I honestly didn’t have the funds to rent a better place, so I had no choice but to negotiate with my mom. I knew that my mom could never bear to see Steven being hurt even a little, but I simply had no choice.

“I bet you’re just being stingy. You’ve been working for a while now, so how is it possible that you have no money for renting a place? Seriously, I have wasted my life raising you. I can’t believe that you’re not willing to even spend a few thousand on us.”

I was working hard to please my mom, but she refused to believe me. What makes her think that I am rich?

“Mom, it’s really not what you think. I don’t have the money. Why won’t you trust me?”

My relationship with my mom was already strained. I had tried to fix it. Unfortunately, my mom didn’t believe me at all, and that got me angry.

“Fine, even if you don’t have the money, that Shaw guy must have it, right? He is a manager, so a few thousand probably means nothing to him.”

My mom saw that she couldn’t convince me, so she shifted her target to Michael. Hearing her words got me even angrier.
