Unexpected Love: One Night With Mr CEO

"He did threaten me," Anna replied curtly. And it made Leo froze on the spot. The girl's reply was completely beyond his expectations.

What else is this? Wow, the world has gone crazy. Devan threatens a woman to go out with him? Truly a very rare occurrence.

"Hahaha really?" Leo said after a few seconds of silence.

"Then you are a woman..."

"Come on, don't talk to him, he's crazy," Devan said again, grabbed Anna's wrist, and left, leaving Leo alone.

Seeing this, Leo did not remain silent and followed the two figures from behind.

"Who are you calling crazy? Ha?"

"Hey, hey, don't leave me," Leo shouted but was ignored by Devan.

"Who's the woman with Devan, Leo?" a voice came from behind, causing the man to stop in his tracks and turn around.

"Oh hi, honey," Leo said when he saw one of his friends there. He then put his arm around her shoulder from the side.

"Let go of your hand, people will misunderstand you, Leo," the woman said again.

"Who? Tell me. Hahaha, what's wrong with this?" Leo joked as he patted her on the shoulder.

"By the way, you didn't bring a partner?" Leo asked again as he looked around.

"As you can see."

"How about I be your partner tonight?" Leo offered teasingly.

"In your dream, already let go. You're making my dress wrinkled," the woman replied.

"Where are the others?" she asked again.

"They're already inside."

"Then what are you doing outside by yourself?" she asked.

"I'm bored, Venia. That's why I went out for a while and accidentally met a beautiful woman like you," Leo replied with a seductive smile.

The woman is Venia, one of the division heads at Devan's company.

Venia, Leo, and Devan have known each other since childhood and are good friends until now. That's why Leo doesn't shy away from Venia and prefers to flirt with her.

"Is Devan with a new woman again?" asked Venia repeating the same words as before.

Leo just shrugged.

Seeing the man's response, Venia grabbed Leo's wrist and looked at the perfectly circular clock there.

11 a.m. a few minutes past.

"We'd better go in," Venia said releasing Leo's arm around her shoulder.

Anna and Devan entered the room that seemed so spacious.

Several pairs of eyes occasionally seemed to steal glances at the two of them, some even deliberately looked at Anna openly, and it managed to make her a little uncomfortable.

The room was the ballroom where the party was being held.

For a moment Anna was stunned by the luxurious decoration of the party. It was the first time she had attended a birthday as grand as this.

Decorations in pink, peach, and light purple fill the entire room giving a very feminine impression.

Balloons and various glittering party trinkets fill some of the spots. Chairs and tables are arranged in such away.

Anna's eyes also found several gifts of different sizes piled neatly in the corner of the room.

Seeing Devan walking next to her looked so casual and so relaxed made her frown.

"You attended a birthday party," Anna suddenly spoke.

"And didn't bring any gifts?" she added again.

"Is it necessary?" replied Devan.

"Come to this party is a big gift here," he added.

Just as he finishes said that sentence, a woman came up to him, she was wearing a long pink dress with feathers at the bottom that looked so detailed to form the figure of a swan. Anyone who saw the dress could guess that it was probably very expensive.

"Hey, Devan."

"I didn't think Leo managed to persuade you to come to my party," the woman said when she was in front of Anna and Devan.

The man just cleared his throat in response.

"And who is this woman? Is she your new girlfriend?" she asked.

"Let's just say so like that," replied Devan briefly but was immediately rewarded with a sharp glare from Anna.

For a moment, the woman looked at Anna's appearance from bottom to top then smiled faintly.

"I'm Danica," said the woman, holding out her hand.

"Anna," the girl replied in return of the woman's outstretched hand.

"Nice to meet you, Anna."

"Ah yes, I left you two here, it is okay right?"

Devan just nodded in response to Danica's words.

"Hope you guys enjoy the party," she said again then walked away from there and greeted the other guests.

To be honest, Anna was a little embarrassed and awkward to be around people who looked so classy in her eyes.

For a moment she felt like a pebble in a sea of ​​sparkling pearls.

"What do you think?" asked Devan interrupting her daydream.

Anna only glanced at the man and was then turned her gaze to another direction, scanning the entire room.

Suddenly her body stiffened, a man who was with the woman in the corner room entered her view.

And the man was also looking at her.

It was Brian and that woman...

Anna's memories of that night in her boyfriend's apartment spun like a broken record in her head, making her hands tremble without realizing it.

Her heartbeat was faster than usual. Suddenly Anna seemed to lose herself.

Devan who felt the unusual response from Anna's body immediately followed the woman's gaze.

And sure enough, what he had expected was happening right now. Seeing the two figures meet eyes, made one of Devan's hands clench without realizing it.

He immediately put his arm around Anna's shoulder, as if to tell anyone that she was his.

"Devan, I want to go to the toilet for a while," said Anna suddenly.

"Do you want me to accompany you?" offered the man.

"No, I can do it myself," replied Anna curtly.

"Do you know where the toilet is?"

"I can look for it," Anna replied casually then let go of Devan's hand, turned, and walked out.

"Anna, where are you going?" asked Leo when she meets him at the entrance, but the girl just walked past him without responding at all.

Devan, what's wrong with her, don't tell me..."

"She only went to the toilet," Devan interrupted immediately.
