After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 169

After the drip was done, Ronan was still hanging out in my room.

“Uhm, I’m about to leave the hospital. You should go ahead.” I was touched by his willingness to accompany me, but I still felt uncomfortable around him. Being taken care of by him like that made us looked like we’re close, even though we weren’t.

“I’ll send you back. It’s best not to overexert yourself.” Ronan spoke plainly.

“There’s no need for that. I’ll just take the subway. I’ve been giving you a lot of trouble for the past two days,” I swiftly rejected his offer as I was living in Michael’s mansion.

I couldn’t let Ronan know about my relationship with Michael because Michael would get angry.

“This is the second time you have rejected me. Why are you so afraid if I know where you live?” Ronan’s tone and eyebrows reflected his disappointment.

“Of course not. I just thought I don’t want to cause you any more trouble after taking care of me. I’m grateful for your help, but I felt like we’re getting a little too close as friends,” I timidly explained.

“You’re not troubling me. I’m just worried that you might’ve not fully recovered yet, which is why I wanted to send you back-” The ringing on Ronan’s cellphone interrupted him before he could finish his sentence.

He took out his phone and answered the call.

Moments later, his expression turned serious. “Got it. I’ll be there soon.”

Ronan’s goofy expression faded away as he turned toward me. “I’m sorry, Anna. I can’t send you back now. Something just came up.”

“It’s fine. You should go. I can go home on my own.” I let out a sigh of relief in my mind.

“I’ll be going now. If I have time later on, I’ll give you a call.” He then put on his coat and left.

Soon after, I left the room as well.

Once I dealt with the discharge procedures, I visited Steven’s room.

I simply stood outside his room like a stranger and watched a heartwarming scene unfolding within.

After I walked out of the hospital, I received a call from Natalie. It had been a while since we last met, so I agreed to her invitation to go shopping.

Initially, I thought about declining it because I was supposed to rest, even though my fever had faded. In the end, I couldn’t win against her pleas and headed toward a nearby mall.
