After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 109

From a closer distance, I could see the heavy makeup on that girl’s face. From her looks, I estimated that she must be in her thirties, and there seemed to be a huge age gap between John and her. From the way she dressed, she seemed to be wealthy.

“What is there to be afraid of? You’re my girlfriend, and there is nothing wrong with kissing you.”

At that, John continued trying to kiss her. And on his face was a despicable smile.

“Stop it…”

The woman pretended to resist verbally but voluntarily puckered up her red lips, welcoming the kiss.

As Natalie watched the interaction between them, there was a painful look in her beautiful eyes. She had just broken up with John, and here he was, with another woman. This must be so hard for her to bear.

“Natalie, have you finished eating? Let’s go if you’re done.”

I knew that Natalie must be feeling sad, so I wanted to take her away from the scene as soon as possible.

“No, I haven’t. Why should I go?”

Natalie’s voice was choked with emotions, but she kept them under control. I knew that besides feeling upset, she had hatred in her heart.

I understood because I had had the same experience. Thus, I could empathize with her.

Nonetheless, Natalie pretended not to mind at all as she continued eating. But of course, as her best friend, I knew that she was using that to hide her pain.

Heaving a heavy sigh, I looked at Natalie with a pained expression as my heart poured out for her. At that point, I really did not know how to console her.

At that moment, John and the woman were already walking toward us, but I turned away, pretending not to see them. They were really an eyesore.

Natalie and I did not want to cause trouble, but I was afraid they would be looking for trouble instead. As expected, after John sat down, he saw us and stared in disbelief. Then, he walked toward us.

“What a coincidence. I did not expect to see you both here.”

John stood in front of Natalie, gazing at her face. She was stuffing her face to distract herself from feeling miserable. Hence, her mouth was full, her cheeks puffed up, and her lips were oily. That was quite an embarrassing sight.

When Natalie heard John’s voice, she froze. I could see that she was trying to avoid looking at John as tears started to well up in her eyes.

“I don’t think it’s that coincidental, to be honest. I’ve been bumping into a lot of scoundrels and sluts wherever I go lately.”

I knew that Natalie would be too depressed to say anything. After all, John, who had just betrayed her, was now showing off his new girlfriend. It was despicable, and I could not stand seeing my best friend being bullied.

“I’m sorry, Ms. Garcia, but I wasn’t speaking to you. What happened between me and Natalie is none of your business!”

John turned his gaze upon me as he heard me speak. His eyes were filled with enmity.
