After marrying my boss (Anna)
Chapter 377

Chapter 377

“I... That's not what I meant. Did you misunderstand something, Anna?”

Yvette looked at me with panic in her eyes when she noticed the sudden change in my expression.

“Yvette, if you genuinely want to be with Steven, the family and I will definitely welcome you with openarms. However, I think you should forget about it if you're doing this with ulterior motives in mind. Myhusband's quite wealthy, but money doesn't grow on trees. We'll do whatever we can to help Steven ifhe's ever in any trouble, but we'll not comply with any absurd requests. Do you understand?”

I looked at her and spoke calmly. I wanted to make it clear that Michael and I wanted no part in the car.To me, Yvette was a materialistic woman. There was no telling what would happen if women like herdid not get what they wanted.

“What are you talking about, Anna? Why are you talking to Yvette like that!”

Yvette's face paled while Steven stared at me, upset. His voice was filled with reproach, clearly blamingme for my terrible attitude toward Yvette.

“Don't be mad, Yvette. My sister's like this sometimes. Rest assured that she definitely won't turn adeaf ear to me. She'd listen to whatever my parents said back then,” Steven comforted Yvette seeingthat she was not looking so good.

That said, what he said annoyed me even more.

“Steven, let's make one thing clear, I'm not buying a car for you, and neither is Michael. If you want thecar, buy it yourself. Why do you want us to buy it for you?”

Does he not know that Yvette's dating him just because he has a wealthy brother-in-law and that shemerely wants to live a carefree life off him? Why is he still defending her?

“Anna!” Steven stared at me angrily.

“Steven, since your sister put it that way, I don't think there's a need for us to go on. I want to marryyou, but if you can't promise me a good life, I have no reason to do that!”

Then, Yvette stood up and turned around before leaving.

“Don't go, Yvette! I can explain!”

Steven chased after her, trying to keep her there, but Yvette never gave him the chance to talk and ranaway.

To be frank, it was not unexpected. What Yvette wanted was money. So it was only natural for her toleave Steven if he could not give her what she wanted.

At that moment, Steven looked a bit down after Yvette left, but it did not take long before he stood infront of me once again and glared at me with his faintly red eyes.

“You've crossed the line this time, Anna Garcia! Why did you have to talk to Yvette like that? She's mygirlfriend and your future sister-in-law!” Steven roared at me in a condemning tone.

I was not in the best mood myself, seeing that my brother was arguing with me over a woman he had

just met months ago. I'm doing this for your own good! She's not someone you can handle! You'll onlyget hurt!

“Steven Garcia, can't you see she's just using you? She doesn't love you but money!”

I looked him in the eyes and held my anger at bay when I spoke.

“I don't care. I'm marrying Yvette no matter what. She's my girlfriend, and I love her. You're the one thatcaused this rift between us, so it's your responsibility to fix it!”

At that point, I doubted that he would listen to anything I had to say as his eyes were completelybloodshot. It looked like he was going to murder me, and I was actually afraid that I was at a loss forwords.

“Try shouting at her one more time, Steven! I dare you!”

It was Michael with his chilly voice. He was staring straight at Steven with his cold and piercing gaze.

Anyone could tell that Michael was mad from just the intensity of the pressure he was exuding bymerely sitting there.

When Steven heard him, his expression completely shifted as he turned to look at Michael with a hintof fear in his eyes.

“I don't care! You two are the reason why Yvette and I turned out like this. You need to bring her back tome!”

Steven had placed all the blame for Yvette's departure on Michael and me. There was not the slightestsign that he had thought there might just be something wrong with Yvette's mindset.

At the same time, I looked at Steven in silence. I was furious but speechless at the same time. Besides,I figured he would not be able to listen to anything I said since he was deadset on me being the onewho had ruined their relationship.

“That's your problem. If you want a car, buy it with your own money. I'm not giving you even a singledime!” Michael exclaimed before he got up and walked straight to Steven.

He stood in front of Steven and looked down at him with an intense air about him.

His dark pupils gradually turned cruel as he watched Steven while his cold voice was rather imposing.

Under Michael's strong presence, Steven could not help but start to panic. He did not even dare lookMichael in the eyes. Even though he was angry, he dared not make a sound in front of Michael.

“Listen carefully. If you ever shout at your sister again, there will be consequences. You're welcome totry if you don't believe me,” Michael threatened before he came over and pulled me away.

He did not give Steven any time to react and merely left him standing there, dumbfounded.

Truth be told, I still wanted to say something to Steven but quickly gave up on the notion because Ifigured he would not listen and would only place more blame on me.

Inside Michael's car, I felt frustrated, at a loss for how I was going to settle that predicament.

“Are you still mad?”

Michael held my hand and looked at me adoringly, seeing that I was quiet. It was a complete shift fromhow he spoke to Steven just moments ago.

It was a gentler side of Michael that only I got to see.

“Even I could see that Yvette's in it for the money. Surely you saw through it too, right?”

I was not sure what was on Michael's mind since he did not say anything back there.

“Yeah, I knew. That woman's not fit to be married into your family.”

Michael looked relaxed, clearly unperturbed about Yvette.

“But you saw Steven's stance. I don't really know what I should do here. What do I do if Steven insistson marrying that woman?”

It was the first time I had seen Steven hold on to something like that. Has she cast a spell on him?
