After marrying my boss (Anna) novel Chapter 257

Chapter 257 Impossible To Hide

Regardless, Michael had revealed that Ronan was the founder of the hospital. That was a pretty shocking piece of information as I had always thought that Ronan was only a good-for-nothing living off his family’s riches.

“I didn’t know Anna would come here for a physical examination. If I knew earlier, I would most definitely spare her from paying,” Ronan responded while curling his lips into a faint smile.

His tone was casual as usual, but I could feel an indecipherable emotion in his eyes while he was looking at me.

Regarding the floor I was on when I took the elevator earlier, Michael might not know I was on the obstetrics and gynecology department floor, but Ronan must have known.

“So, you’re the founder of this hospital. That’s quite a surprise.” I spoke to Ronan with an awkward tone after giving him a polite smile.

“I must’ve forgotten to tell you about that before.” In contrast to his previous witty personality, Ronan was being very courteous toward me at present. Even though it was a good thing that he had stopped pursuing me after knowing about my pregnancy, I still felt pretty uneasy by his indifferent attitude toward me.

Since I had always treated him as my close friend, becoming strangers because of my pregnancy was the last thing I wished to happen. However, it seemed like that was out of my control.

Once we finally reached the first floor, I strode out of the elevator without delay. Being with Michael and Ronan in the elevator was not only stressful but suffocating.

Before I was about to leave, I heard a female voice coming from behind. “Michael! You’re finally done! I’ve been waiting for so long.”

The second I heard Michael’s name mentioned, I could not help but stop in my tracks while my heart skipped a beat. I then turned around and witnessed Emma throwing herself into Michael’s arm. There was also a sense of coquettishness in her tone while she was speaking.

In response, Michael did not push Emma away and allowed her to embrace him. Despite having an emotionless expression, there was no trace of disgust on his face.

Not too long ago, I had told Michael that I surmised that Emma was the instigator of the intrusion in my house. Judging from the current situation, it seemed to me that he did not take that matter to heart at all.

I wondered if Michael’s feelings for Emma had changed during that period. After all, she was the woman he had to spend the rest of his life with soon. Conversely, I was only a nobody.

“Nice to meet you, Ms. Jones. Or should I call you Mrs. Shaw? Anyway, I see that you can’t even separate from Michael for a moment now, huh? Weren’t you with him just a short while ago?” Ronan could not hold himself back from joking with Emma. He even had a smile on his face when he saw them embracing.

It was apparent that Emma was in a joyous mood upon hearing Ronan calling her Mrs. Shaw from the bright smile on her face. There was a hint of shyness in her expression too.

Sure enough, I felt like a dagger had pierced through my heart the second I heard Emma being called Mrs. Shaw. My eyes began to well up in tears uncontrollably when I saw how in sync they looked, painting a picture of a happy family.

“It’s too early to call me that. Since there’s still a couple of days before our wedding, addressing me as Mrs. Shaw is a little inappropriate.” Although she gave such a reply to Ronan, Emma was gazing at Michael with a blissful expression.

“Why not? You’ll marry Michael eventually anyway,” the straightforward Ronan uttered again right after Emma finished her words.
