Love from My Dominant Boss

Chapter 32

“Hey, don’t keep thinking about work. As a woman, you can’t focus solely on your career.”

My mom knew I took my career seriously. Therefore, my excuse didn’t raise her suspicion, but she gazed at me with much concern.

“I got it, Mom. Don’t worry about me. I’ll take good care of myself.”

Flashing her a faint smile, I couldn’t help feeling a pang of guilt within my heart.

The surgery was scheduled in the afternoon, so I kept my dad company, chattering with him in the ward the entire morning. A lump formed in my throat at the sight of his grey hair.

A long while later, my mom pulled me aside and questioned, “Anna, what happened between you and Justin? Why did you cancel the wedding out of the blue?”

Previously, I had only informed my parents over the phone that the wedding had been canceled. I hadn’t bothered explaining the reason behind the cancellation as I didn’t want to worry them.

“Nothing much. It’s just that we’re not compatible with one another, so we canceled the wedding.”

At the mention of Justin’s name, my heart skipped a beat, and I couldn’t bring myself to meet her gaze.

My relationship with Justin was over, so I didn’t want my parents to get edgy because of me and that scumbag.

“I know you’re lying to me. You’re my daughter. I know you from the inside out. Over the years, you’ve been head over heels in love with Justin. How could you suddenly realize that the two of you are incompatible with one another? Are you hiding anything from me?”

Undoubtedly, she understood my personality, that I had always been one who suffered in silence. That was why she didn’t believe in a single word I said.

I was with Justin, and how I used to yearn to tie the knot with him. With that, anyone would suspect the abrupt cancelation of the wedding, let alone my
