Unexpected Love: One Night With Mr CEO

Chapter 38 - 38. Anna's Wish



"You feel uncomfortable like that because we don't have any relationship, don't you? Then we just get married," said Nicho, looking at Anna seriously.

Immediately Anna turned her gaze in another direction.

"Eh, I was just kidding, don't take it seriously," said Nicho again when he saw the woman avoiding her gaze. He did have feelings for Anna, it's just that she didn't seem interested in him at all.

It was clear when he teased Anna, she always avoided him or didn't care about him at all. Let it be, he can only hope that one day, the woman's heart will melt at him.

"Alright. If that's your wish, I don't want to force you any further, do you have a plan?" asked Nicho back to the topic they discussed earlier.

"I want to find a job."

"Don't..."

"Stop forbidding me, Nicho. I have things I want to do myself," Anna interrupted immediately before the man's words.

"But what about Dave? He's still a kid, and…"

"Before I wanted to find a job that had a playing room, so Dave could wait while playing while I was at work. But hearing your offer beforehand, then things will get easier and I won't have to be selective in looking for work."

Hearing the woman's answer, Nicho massaged his painless forehead, took a deep breath, and then replied to Anna's words, "Okay, if that makes you happy."

"You can come to my office and work there," added Nicho again.

"No, except for your company. I just want to work elsewhere. I don't want to depend on anyone else Nicho. Let me try and do it myself," replied Anna refusing. The man's kindness was more than enough for her, if Nicho helped her again, she was afraid that she would become dependent on him.

Moreover, they have no relationship whatsoever. She didn't know, even though Nicho always helps her and treats her very well, she doesn't have any feelings for the man, not the slightest bit. There is only shyness and discomfort.

It's impossible, right, if she will continue to rely on that man's help, while the two of them have their own lives. No one knows what will happen in the future.

"Hmm, it's up to you, but if you're tired, just stop, and don't let Dave get sick, this also applies to you," said Nicho finally obeying the woman's will to work.

Anna just nodded in agreement, "Thank you again," she said.

Nicho did not reply to the woman's words and was just busy with the bottle in his hand.

"If I didn't talk about my leaving next week, do you keep your plans a secret from me?" asked Nicho after a few minutes of silence.

"No. I'll still tell you. After all, you've been very good to me," Anna replied at the same time. She did intend to tell the man her intention to find a job, but she never expected to say it so soon. However, isn't that a good thing? The sooner Nicho knows this the better for her because she can look for jobs starting tomorrow, no, even tonight she can do it.

"Just do it tomorrow, I will help you find a job that might suit you," said Nicho as if he knew what the woman was thinking.

"Okay, thanks again."

And silence enveloped them again.

"We'd better go in, the air outside is getting colder," said Nicho, turning to the side where Anna was.

"You go first. I still want to be here for a few more minutes."

"Then I will accompany you," replied Nicho.

Until a few minutes passed, there was no discussion between the two of them.

"Tomorrow I leave early again," said Nicho who could not stand the silence.

"Early days?"

"Erm, you don't need to prepare breakfast for me."

"Don't you want to something? I might be able to buy it when I get home," said Nicho again.

"No need. All the things I need have been met," replied Anna.

"If tomorrow you leave for work early again, you'd better go in and rest," she added again.

"And leave you here alone?"

"Don't worry about me, Nicho. Sitting here alone won't put my life in danger. You, come in."

"Before I leave for Australia, I want to take you for a walk with Dave," said Nicho, diverting their conversation.

"A few days ago we just got back from the park, Nicho."

"You just focus on your work," Anna added again.

Nicho sighed harshly at Anna's answer. Just wanted to take the woman for a walk together, for some reason, it was very difficult.

"Anna..." Nicho called without looking where the woman was, leaning on the chair with his head up while closing his eyes, he spoke again, "Don't you like me?"

"Why ask like that?"

"I just wanted to know, because it wasn't just once or twice that you rejected my good intentions."

"I'm not turning you down, Nicho. I just don't want to depend on anyone else. I've always lived alone and did everything myself. Getting help from other people is something very foreign to me."

"I hope you can understand," added Anna again.

Hearing the answer from the woman, Nicho did not respond again. He knows a little about Anna's past, but only the outline. The woman never explained clearly and in detail about her life at that time.

"Never feel alone. I'm here. You have to remember it's Anna," said Nicho, opening his eyes again and turning his head to the side.

"You are human, sometimes depending on others is a natural thing."
