Love from My Dominant Boss

Chapter 489

Chapter 489 A Gift

When she held my hands tightly, I felt uneasy again. Turning around, I caught a glimpse of Michael’s curious frown. I guessed that he too was equally surprised at how Alicia had gone overboard with her warmth.

“Mrs. Campbell, since you’re here to chat with my mom, I won’t get in the way. Please carry on.”

For some inexplicable reason, Alicia filled me with complex emotions which I didn’t understand.

“Not at all, not at all. Anna, I like you very much the first time I saw you. Wouldn’t it be great if I had a daughter just like you?”

Maintaining her tight grip on my hand, Alicia’s gaze was visibly different when she uttered the last sentence.

Already feeling awkward, I was stumped upon hearing her words. After all, I didn’t know what to say when she made it sound like I was her daughter.

Meanwhile, Josephine knitted her brows as she was equally puzzled by how Alicia was treating me. Nevertheless, she hid her emotions well.

“Mrs. Campbell, you have an excellent sense of humor. Everyone knows that you have a beautiful daughter whom your husband puts on a pedestal. Compared to her, Anna is just an ordinary girl.”

Sensing my awkwardness, Josephine came over to defuse the situation.

Realizing that she was being too overt with her emotions, Alicia let go of my hands. Even then, she still maintained her gaze on me.

As if something suddenly occurred to her, she quickly took off her bracelet and put in on my hand.

“Since this is our first meeting, I didn’t manage to prepare anything for you. Hence, I hope you won’t mind this bracelet as a gift.”
