Back in Time: Unshackling From Love

Chapter 23

All of a sudden, Mike was starting to regret this.

His boss had pulled an all–nighter last night and had been wearing a stony expression all day. Clearly, he was in a bad mood.

If he brought Mikayla up right now, would it be adding fuel to the fire?

“If you have something to say, then spit it out!” Jerome said, losing his patience.

Mike could only walk over to his boss and carefully open the notification drawer on hist phone.

Jerome glanced at the screen. It was filled with purchase notifications from the mall.

The highest expense was in the tens of millions, while the cheapest was in the tens of thousands. They were all from jewelry and fashion stores popular with women.

“Ding!” Another notification came in.

Thanks for shopping at Milano’s Couture for Men. You spent 288,000 dollars on this visit. We hope to see you again!‘”

Maybe Mike was dreaming, but it almost seemed like his boss looked slightly more relieved after he read this.

Although clothes of this price typically didn’t appear in Jerome’s closet, Mike still mustered the courage to butter him пр.

‘It seems like your wife didn’t forget to buy you some clothes on her shopping spree, Mr. Miller. How sweet!”

As Mike thought, Jerome looked much happier

But the latter just snorted coldly and said, “As if I care.”

Mike instantly understood. “Mr. Miller, you worked till so late last night, and you’ve had a killer day today, too. You must be exhausted. Why don’t you head home and get some rest?”

Jerome stretched his arms over his head. He was indeed rather tired.

“Tell Amy to brew me some coffee.”

“Yes, Mr. Miller.”
