After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 189

“Anna Garcia! Is this how you talk to me?”

Harry was exasperated when I shouted at him.

“But that’s the truth!” I retaliated.

I looked at him in the eyes without backing down. I did not care if he was the supervisor.

“Do you know I can sack you right this second?”

Harry hurled threats at me because he felt humiliated when I yelled at him in front of everybody.

“And do y’all know I can fire all of you?” Michael’s voice came from behind all of a sudden. “What’s with all the ruckus early in the morning?”

Michael’s voice was cold and raspy.

Everyone looked away as he swept his gaze across the office. The women fell into silence and even the supervisor straightened his back.

I turned and looked at him with my eyes red.

“What happened?”

Michael turned toward me and asked without betraying any emotion in his voice.

I told him everything from the very beginning.

Michael’s eyes were burning with anger when I was done telling my story.

“So none of you took it?” His fierce glare sank through them as he interrogated the women.

They were shaking under Michael’s harsh questioning.

“No, we didn’t do it. Anna is the one who’s trying to set us up.”

The women came forward one by one and mumbled the same answer.

“Really?”

Michael’s gaze hardened as he scrutinized their faces.

“We really didn’t do it, Mr. Shaw…”

I could tell they were lying from how their voices trailed off weakly.

“Since y’all said no, then I’ll find it until I get it.”

I was touched seeing Michael standing up for me, but I could not dismiss the bugging thought of my colleagues finding out about our relationship.

Michael gestured at his secretary to start searching.

My gaze followed the secretary anxiously. I was genuinely afraid that the document was lost. The people from Benyx Corporation would be here anytime soon. They would definitely want to see the design during the meeting. It would be too late for me to start penning it all over again.
