The Boss's Muse

7

In the coffee shop by the river, I was more looking forward to what he would say about the river sight.

For a long while, he did not say anything.

He held a cup of coffee in his slender fingers and sipped it from time to time. His dark and deep gaze was fixed outside the window.

Don't you dare to pretend that nothing has happened!

No way!

I was baffled by his behavior. I decided to talk first.

"Mr. Louis, you said that as long as I help you deal with your mother, our debt will be written off."

Bang!

He slowly placed the coffee cup on the table. The sound of the porcelain touching the glass seemed to strike me.

I had a bad feeling about this.

He looked up at me. My heart skipped a beat.

Then, he said slightly. "Laura, the bracelet on your hand is a dowry that my grandmother gave to my mother. My mother likes it very much."
