Unexpected Love: One Night With Mr CEO

"Ah yes, even though you're with Dave's father, you shouldn't forget me here Anna," Naila said in a seductive tone of voice interspersed with a light laugh.

Anna was getting more confused.

"What do you mean? Dave's father?"

"Yes. Ah yes, a guy named Kevin came here and asked me to get ready tomorrow, Dave too."

"Kevin?"

"Yeah, he said that you and your son, as well as me, will stay at Dave's Dad's house starting tomorrow," Naila replied.

"Huh?"

"He also said that he had confirmed this with Nicho. So you don't have to worry," said Naila again.

'What else is this?' Anna thought, the woman was silent for a while, trying to digest all of Naila's words.

"So-so you guys will come tomorrow?" she asked.

"Yeah, hehe. You don't worry about us, Anna. Have fun with your husband," said Naila again.

"O-oh y-yes. Thank you, Naila. Then you should rest, it's getting late."

"Okay. You too," replied the girl from the other side.

After ending the call, Anna's reflex breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank God they're okay," she muttered.

She then walked to the side of the window, wiped the curtains, intending to open the window in the hope, her feelings could relax a little after being exposed to the fresh night breeze.

It's just that her intentions stopped.

Just slightly wiped the curtains and peeked into position. Lots of men in black uniforms down there. Some form groups and gather in the gazebo and not a few pass by as if they are on patrol.

The lighting outside the mansion wasn't very bright, but it was able to give Anna a clear, albeit slightly dim, view.

Seeing all the things around her today, she somehow felt Brian was very foreign to her. Starting from the man's treatment of her and also what he currently has. It was as if he wasn't the same man she had known five years ago.

She walked back to the bed and lay down on it. Anna tried to close her eyes even though she wasn't sleepy.

She didn't know what to do now, she wanted this moment to pass quickly so she could see her son again tomorrow.

It's just that Anna, who had just closed her eyes for a few seconds, suddenly woke up, she felt strange.

'Isn't this my first night with that jerk?'

Anna shuddered for a moment. If only she could, she didn't want to see that man again. If there was a gap, even the slightest, she wanted to run as far as possible with Dave.

In her heart, Anna continued to hope and pray that she would be spared from that man, even though she knew that it was highly unlikely that this would happen because she was already his wife.

A very unwanted status. And all this she did for her son.

And Brian knew that very well. Mastering Anna and acting as she pleases because the man knows what Anna's weaknesses are.

When it came to Dave, Anna couldn't move.

As for Devan? Anna had no hope in the man at all. Devan was Dave's father, but would he accept that fact if she told him? Will Devan protect her from Brian while the man already has another woman who might soon become his wife?

She is not the type of woman who expects mercy from anyone. She didn't want to make Dave an excuse to get sympathy from anyone, including Devan who had very different social strata from her.

Even so, she's not that bad at ruining other women's happiness just because of her selfishness.

She was better off like this, holding on to herself, protecting her son with her own hands, without relying on anyone. Even if it would hurt her a lot.

Because she has felt how painful it is when her hopes are disappointed, her heart and feelings are knocked down.

There is nothing better in this world than relying on herself.

Whatever and however, in the end, she will try to accept everything, accept the destiny of God who continues to play with her life. Yes, as long as her son is okay. She is willing to do anything even though the stakes are her own life.

Until it was not felt more than an hour had passed, now the time was showing one o'clock in the morning.

But Anna did not feel the slightest drowsiness.

Her mind was as noisy as it was, about endless prejudices and question marks.

***

Currently, Devan and Leo are on their way home from Grandma's house.

For a while, her mother, both Leo's parents, and Byanca's parents lived in the Atmadja family's Mansion. Only Byanca prefers to stay in a hotel, arguing that the location of the hotel is very close to the location where she made an appointment with some of her clients, and everyone even Devan believes that. Except for someone, someone who always displayed an attitude of pretending not to know anything.

Devan's previous assumption turned out to be true, that the family meeting discussed her marriage to Byanca. Even the day and date have been set.

Leo who was sitting next to Devan was already feeling embarrassed, who knows how many times he had heard his cousin sigh harshly as if he was carrying a very heavy burden.

"You love Byanca?" Leo asked openly, breaking the silence in the car.

Devan just glanced at the man, then returned his focus to the steering wheel. He didn't want to answer a question that has a very clear answer.

"You just refuse. Cancel everything," Leo said lightly.

Devan suddenly pulled the car over, "Didn't you previously insist on forcing me to accept all this? Why now ask me to refuse their wishes?"

"Did you accept this arranged marriage because of what I said?" Leo asked turning around, his voice now sounding very serious. Even the playful expression that used to fill her face was now gone.

"No," replied Devan that very second.

"Then?"

"I should be the one asking you, why suddenly say such a line? I still remember how the last time you insisted on asking me to accept Byanca, at that time you also advised me. How did you suddenly change your attitude now?"

Leo was stunned, it was unusual for Devan to say such a long sentence to him.

"I just don't like it when you get married before me," Leo replied lightly.

A reply that made no sense to Devan.

"Say it!" asked Devan.

"What?"

"You're hiding something from me."

"Tsk, I'm hiding something," Leo replied then reached into his shirt pocket.

"Here, I hid it from you in my pocket," he said pointing at the phone.

"I'm serious, Leo. Don't joke," said Devan embarrassed. Sometimes the man next to him joked after saying something very serious.

"I'm serious too," Leo said.

Devan took a shaky breath.

"Hah, it's up to you," he said then stepped back on the gas.

"So how?"

Devan didn't answer.

Seeing his cousin's response, Leo leaned his head back on the chair with a shaky breath. His eyes were fixed on the ceiling of the car.

"It's up to you.. As your good and very handsome cousin, I will support whatever you do," Leo said but Devan didn't respond at all.
