After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 245

Chapter 245 You Are The First Woman To Reject Me

Natalie’s words held some degree of truth. I was also aware that it would be difficult to keep the news of my pregnancy from Michael.

Not wanting to further discuss this topic with her, we talked for a bit longer before I decided to leave.

I intended to keep the baby, but I didn’t know how to keep this a secret from Michael. He was an intelligent man. If I told him the baby was someone else’s, there was no way he would believe me.

Today was his engagement day. Initially, I refused to watch anything that had to do with it. However, I could not hold myself back. I turned on the TV to watch his engagement video, which was playing in a loop.

The man was dressed in a white suit, looking tall and charming. His expression was still cold as ever, and his piercing eyes seemed like he could read right through someone. No matter where he was, he would always be the center of attention.

Standing beside him was Emma, who had her hand around his arm. The champagne-colored dress complimented her skin, and the long length of the dress hugged her every curve. The bright smile on her face made her look even more appealing. Though I didn’t want to, I had to admit that the two of them were a perfect match.

As much as I wanted to deny it, my heart ached upon looking at the couple.

I hurriedly turned off the TV; I didn’t dare watch it any longer. I had known that watching further would make me sad, but I had been able to hold myself back.

At night, while I was tossing and turning in bed, I suddenly thought of an idea to prevent Michael from finding out that I was pregnant with his child — leaving the company.

Even though I was reluctant to do so, that was the only way to avoid his suspicion.

On Monday, I strolled straight to the HR department to hand in my resignation letter, and it didn’t take long for me to complete the procedure.

When I returned home, I let out a helpless sigh because I was once again unemployed. The most important thing for me to do right now was to land a job. Otherwise, when the baby finally came, both of us would suffer.

In the next few days, I applied for jobs in a few companies, but because I had to raise a child all by myself in the future, I had to find a job that offered a high salary. Unfortunately, I had not managed to find the ideal company that met all my requirements after a long time of searching.

After I left Joyful Success, Michael completely disappeared from my life. It was as if we had never met at all.

However, today, when I was staying at home looking at the job offers in the newspaper. The door to my room suddenly opened, making me instinctively turn toward the door’s direction, only to see Michael walking in.

“You… Why are you here?” I asked, stupefied.

Since he was already engaged with Emma, I hadn’t expected him to come here any more; it seemed like I was wrong.

“You resigned?” he asked, ignoring my question.

“Yes,” I replied flatly. Did he come here to talk about that?

“State the reason,” he demanded.

I noticed that his face had darkened upon hearing my answer. Though I didn’t know why he was so mad, my heart still fluttered upon meeting him.

“No reason. I just wanted a change of working environment.”

Since I could not let him know about the baby inside my stomach, I had to make up an excuse to brush him off.
