"Even if the plan is not fixed, you will still be the winner in the end," George said, hiding his smile.
What did he mean by that?
Anna was stunned
It couldn't be that… he would… as she had understood it…brazenly help her to cheat?
Anna shook her head furiously. No, definitely not. Who was she to even get George to help her?
She was self-aware and knew that she had nothing valuable for George to help her this much.
Yet, at the next moment, George said, "Anyway, no matter what, I will always choose you."
Anna’s brain exploded spectacularly. Her lips were trembling, his words continuously repeating in her mind.
Did George like her? Was he going to help her no matter what?
The way he spoke sounded like… like he would prefer her over anyone else.
That no matter what happened, the person he would choose would always be her.
With those words, the memories of that afterno
Anna looked away and came up with an idea.At this moment, suddenly a notification came from her work email. Anna clicked on it and it turned out to be a company-wide announcement.Usually, there would be a company-wide announcement through a mass email to notify everyone who had received a warning letter.This announcement made everyone shocked.In the entire CEO Secretary's Office, Ryan alone received two warning letters, while the rest received one. Moreover, even Rachel received one too.Other than that, in the email, next to each name on the name list, the reason for their warning letter was also stated.The people in the Secretary Office received a warning because they ignored the CEO's orders and even let someone barge into the CEO's office without permission.However, what Ryan did was the most serious. She even helped outsiders to bully colleagues in the company.If she were to receive another warning let
"Yes, I am.” Anna nodded like robot. She didn’t like trouble. This man was trouble."who is she doing now?" Felix asked as he entered the elevator together with Anna."She has almost recovered fully. The doctor said that if it goes well, she can be discharged this weekend." Regarding this, Anna also felt a lot more at ease.Most importantly, her mother was all better now. While she might not be as healthy like an average person, her health was a lot better than before.That was more important than anything. Hence, Anna also felt much more relieved.Now the next thing she needed to do was to focus on returning the money back to George."Let's go, I'll drop you off at the hospital and visit Auntie too," Felix said." Nooo!” Anna said loudly before covering her mouth she didn’t expect to react that much.“sorry, I didn’t mean to react that way, I just think it will be too much of a hassle for yo
Although he did not clearly state it, it sounded as if she was being a player.No! No!She and George were nothing. So even if she were flirting with someone, she was not being a player!But having to say it out loud, Anna was afraid. "No, I didn't agree to him."In case she had to choose between them, she would rather have George send her instead of FelixShe did not want to have too much interaction with Felix in her private life which may let Florence misunderstand them.Moreover, since Florence looked down on her, and neither did she have any interest in Felix in that sense, she didn’t want troubleBesides, to chase after someone who despised her, was something Anna would never do.Hearing that Anna had declined Felix’s request, George was now in a good mood. George smiled and said "Wait for me at the parking lot.""Alright." Anna hung up the phone. She sneaked a glance in his direction and met George gaz
When Anna reached the parking lot majority had left."Beep!" Suddenly, a loud car horn sounded. Anna looked towards the source of the sound and saw George Bentley.She checked her surroundings. After making sure that no one was looking in their direction, she hurriedly ran over.She realized that the windows on George car were tinted very dark. From outside, you could roughly make out the figure of a person in the car, but you could not see their features clearly. Anna immediately felt more relieved.she quickly opened the door and got into the car. She finally let out a sigh of relief.George did not start the car. His left hand was placed on the wing mirror and he kept staring at Anna relentlessly."You're not starting the car?" Anna was extremely stressed from his staring. She felt uncomfortable all over and did not dare to look at him directly. She could only hide away from his gaze, feeling that she was very cowardly."You had so
He gently stroked the corner of her eye and caressed her cheek all the way before cupping his hand at the back of her ear.His hot breath followed closely on the trail of his hand and blew onto her cheek.Anna was blushing so much that even her ear tips were red and her eyes dazed, this was the effect of George lips had on her."You were saying that you have nothing to do with me?" George gently whispered next to her ears. Making her tremble. She could not deny the effect George kiss had on her. She had kiss Mike before yet it didn’t feel this good.Anna quickly regained her sense, she pushed George but that only made him tighten his hold on her.Yes, she might like the kiss but she also needed space, she angrily pushes George and said"Mr. Wolf, you are a proper and well-mannered gentleman, and you told me you want do anything I don’t want, you just went against your words!" she was now fuming.George was frustrated
"But I don't intend to love again or start a new relationship," Anna said quietly, lowering her gaze.She had been through two lifetimes and the impact that Tomas and Mike had on her was twice as much.In both her lives, because of the two men closest to her, she really could not have every confidence in any man ever.It could be said that they had already left a deep scar on her heart.Anna smiled bitterly. She did not realize earlier, yet when the matter finally hit her, she realized that she had long since been afraid of having any feelings.After sometime, Anna spoke, “sorry but I don’t plan to be in a relationship right now, maybe in future but not now. I just want to focus on my career and dreamed and also my mother.so am thankful to you for liking me but I can’t reciprocate it.”George narrowed his eyes and did not speak for quite a while.Anna felt nervous and finally lifted her eyes to take a look. He
Grace felt that It would be the best if Anna could meet someone who could open up her heart.Yet, at the same time, Grace was very conflicted too. George status was way too high up, she was worried that they could not compare to him.Even Tomas abandoned his wife and daughter once he had a little taste of success. For someone like George, if he were to do anything, it would be impossible for her to support Anna in any way.However, George did not seem like those two b*stards, Tomas and Mike, Nonetheless, she was still afraid — once bitten, twice shy.Grace had just started worrying but her thoughts was interrupted by Anna and she stopped worrying."Mom, have you eaten?" Anna asked."I have. Gaby and Don ordered a meal. It's healthy and prepared according to nutritional needs. It's so much better than the food from the hospital canteen," Grace said, smiling."How could it not be delicious?" Gaby and Don who were at the door thoug
Anna was both embarrassed and furious. She covered her face with a hand, and when Grace was not looking at them she glared at George.However, George appeared to be oblivious of that and picked up another piece of meat for her. "Just come straight to my office and wait for me there tomorrow afternoon."Thankfully this time, George spoke quietly and Grace could not hear him clearly.Yet, whispering to each other they appeared even more intimate and flirtatious.If she had known that this would happen, she would have much rather ate outside with him before coming. It would have been much better than having Grace watching them right now.All this time, Anna was under too much stress due to this meal. She felt like her food would not be digested well.Perhaps George felt that it would not be good to go too overboard, and stress Anna out too much, in case she got angry instead.Therefore, soon after they finished eating, he said goodbye an
One week later, wake of down the media was in uproar by what happened the night before, no one expected the downfall of Cobby family within a night. The family were happy celebrating with the other rich family daughter that was to have engagement with mike.The engagement was set for the other week and it was day for formality where the girls family would come and visit the boy’s family.During the dinner the FBI budge into the house and arrested all the Cobby family that include mike as his company was also involved with shady business. The arrest was to first that they had no time to react at all.With all the evidence against them, no one wanted to associate with them as they were afraid of being implicated. Even the girl’s family cut ties with them.Monday morning was an uproar, with all media outlet reporting about the downfall of the Cobby family. Imelda watched the news with mockery laughter, as she saw the Cobby family being take
He found a good angle in the kitchen, set up the phone stand, and fixed his phone on the stand. Then he realized, “This is not right. If I live stream, then I won’t be able to search recipes on my phone. Wait for a while.”He went to take the iPad. Searched for the recipe and then started cooking. He was preparing sun side egg, sausages and some toast bread with bacon and fruit juice. But all was through Anna’s guidance.Finally, a simple breakfast was completed. He hurriedly carried it back.Anna took a small table and placed it on the bed, then ate on the bed with George.“Try it.” It was his first time making breakfast. It looked alright, but he was not sure about the taste and felt a little nervous.Anna looked at George’s hand, which was placed on the small table. His fingers looked so nice, as if they had never gotten dirty. These beautiful hands had just made her breakfast.Although the meal w
George propped Anna up to sit. Anna still looked like a boneless lump of meat. After she had eaten the candy, her throat felt cold and much better. Her voice sounded more normal.However, it was so painful that even after she woke up, she did not want to move at all. Leaning on the pillow, she tilted her head lazily towards George until it fell on his shoulder. “I don’t want to get up. I don’t want to move.”Anna pouted and said, “Lazy.”George turned his head and kissed her lips a few times. “Then, are you hungry?”“I don’t feel hungry now but I might be later.” She raised her arm and placed it on her stomach.Even the movement of raising her arm made her arm extremely sore.Just because of this, she did not want to get out of bed today. She was thinking about it and said out loud, “I don’t want to get out of bed today.”Who knew that right after Anna
The thing that Anna worried about did not exist at all.Even if she did not wear makeup, she could still look amazing in this grand and exquisite wedding dress.That small face of hers looked exceptionally exquisite with this wedding dress.“How is my wife so beautiful?” George muttered. It was as if he said it subconsciously and had accidentally voiced his thoughts.She clearly heard him say such things quite often usually, but at this moment, George’s careful and gentle gaze coupled with his words made her feel so shy that she could not even lift her head up.Yet George was still staring at her. He even took another two steps back so that he could see her from top to toe at once.Although Anna’s head was lowered, she could still clearly feel his gaze on her. Seeing that he was actually not done staring, Anna finally could not help but look up, feeling a little shy as she said, “What are you still staring at?&r
George and Anna returned home. When Anna was done washing up in the bathroom and opened the door, she saw George blocking her right at the door.He had already changed into comfortable home clothes. It was a simple short-sleeved t-shirt paired with loose and long cotton pants. She could smell the scent of shampoo and shower gel from his body, so he had probably just bathed. He did not style his hair like he did usually in the day.Now that he was relaxed, his hair also lay softly on his forehead, and he looked much younger.He was a grown, mature man who was more than thirty years old, but at this moment, he looked just like a twenty something only a few years older than a teenager, which was a far cry from how mature he usually looked like.George lowered his head and kissed her lips as she walked towards him as usual. Anna was not prepared at all and gasped, taking half a step back subconsciously.Alas, George’s movements were even faster.
The brothers made up half of the groomsmen! It’s like they were not afraid of others knowing that there were single.Old Madan Bells heard her grandson greet her. She then responded angrily, “Bad!”Gabriel and Graviel blinked innocently, wondering what had just happened.Old Mrs. Howells said in an angry tone, “This is a table full of singles. You two are part of this group and you are proud of yourselves? Do you think it’s good to be groomsmen? Married people can’t be groomsmen! Only singles can be groomsmen!”Niel felt speechless.If this grandma wanted to scold her grandsons, she should just target her grandsons. Don’t hurt the innocent ones!Niel felt as though he was being scolded as well!He raised his hand and scratched his nose as he quietly moved away from Graviel and Gabriel.: “…”Liam was unhappy. He was not single. How could Old Mrs. Howells
Finally, martin and Anna stopped in front of George. It was a short red carpet, but George felt that it was too long. Anna seemed to take forever to reach him.Just like in their previous lives, when she took an entire lifetime and a fresh start to be with him…He had waited a lifetime and finally found herMartin recalled what he just said to Anna outside the doors and immediately had a feeling like his daughter was getting stolen by someone. And he instantly understood how fathers felt marrying off their daughters. He couldn’t bear to let her go and didn’t want to hand her over.“Dad.” George reminded Martin to quickly hand Anna to him.Anna turned and saw the reluctance on Martin’s face. And she couldn’t hold back the tears any longer. She was also a daughter treasured by her father!Seeing Martin’s attitude, the guests were sure Martin really saw Anna as his own daughter. He used to help A
Anna had never thought of such a good thing before. In the past, she only thought of getting away from the William family and leading a good life with Grace.In the end, not only did she manage to get away, but she even met George. Then, after that, she thought that getting together with him was already the Heavens taking pity on her after seeing how tragic her past life had been.Yet she did not expect that she could also have a father like Martin. Martin fulfilled all the wishes and dreams she had of a father. Upright, nice, and an honorable role model for his children.“Dad,” Anna called.Martin just felt that how Anna addressed him just now was worth a thousand pieces of gold.“Yes!” martin also answered in an equally heartfelt and cherishing manner.“Thank you, thank you for letting me have a father. Thank you for treating me like your biological daughter. I never thought that I could have such a wonderful
Anyway, George and Anna were already husband and wife. They had simply posed an appropriate challenge for the men when they came to fetch the bride and would consider it a pass once they’d had some fun.They would not really stop George.So when they reached the door to Anna’s bedroom, Nicole and the others did not stop him. They just smiled happily and waited for him to enter.George glanced at them with uncertainty and caution as he asked, “You’re letting me in now?”Nicole tsked and said, “You think we’re letting you enter too easily, is that it?”As she said that, Nicole took out her phone and said, “Then you wait for a moment, I will search and see if there are any other ways to prank the groom.”“Wait!” George immediately stopped her and said, “Please have mercy, please have mercy!”Nicole could not help but laugh and say, “I was letting yo
