Love from My Dominant Boss

Sitting alone in the living room, I looked at the Doppler ultrasound from the check-up. Although I was only two months pregnant, and there was nothing to see, I was still happy. Just when I was relishing in my bliss, the doorbell rang. I furrowed my eyebrows and went to open the door.

It was Michael’s mother. The sight of her caused my heart to sink as a sense of dread began to emanate through my body. It took me a long while to regain my senses. Forcing a smile, I greeted politely, “Mrs. Shaw.” “Ms. Garcia, are you going to make me stand while I talk to you?” Josephine looked at me with an icy gaze.

The annoyance in her tone was obvious enough for me. In response, I quickly stepped aside and invited her in, “Mrs. Shaw, please come in.” Josephine Blackwood was Michael’s mother. She would be my mother-in-law if I married Michael.

Therefore, as her future daughter-in-law, I had to treat her well. Josephine frowned at me before sidestepping me to enter the living room.

Standing behind Josephine as if I was a maid, I lowered my head and asked, “Mrs. Shaw, would you like some coffee or tea?” “Plain water will do,” Josephine replied without even looking in my direction.

“I’ll go get it right away.” I hurried into the kitchen to get a glass of water and placed it in front of Josephine. “Mrs. Shaw, please have some water.” Just as I spoke, I saw Josephine staring at the medical report on the table with a frosty expression.

I forced myself to contain my anger on the account that she was Michael’s mother. “Mrs. Shaw, I agree that I have broken my promise to you, but there’s no way
