Anne was about to go to her office but stopped by her father’s word.
“Stop right there, don’t go to work today” he spoke calmly
Anne confused looked at her father.
“don’t flatter yourself, you are going out with your future husband, as their parents wanted both of you to talk first before marriage, I don’t know why a pathetic girl like you have a say in this marriage, I tried to explain to them that you are ready but they wanted your concern anyway, but remember if you say no or any of your action leads to break off this marriage then you done for good then mark my words. “
Her father threatens her, she just nodded, she was feeling little better about her in law as they were really thought full , but she don’t want any unwanted hope to enlighten in her heart just yet.
“yes, father “ she spoke calmly.
“And get dressed nicely he will anytime soon be here” her father spoke. She nodded and walked back to her room.

Anne has forced smile on her face when Rean walked her toward a table in this famous restaurant. she was nervous and needs some fresh air to talk.
“Ahh, how many years been working as CEO” He started a conversation to erase the awkward air around them. “two years” she replied.
And there was silence again. Anne took a deep breath and said what she wanted to tell him before dinner.
“I need to tell you something “ she spoke, she knows if her father knew about this there will be a storm. But she needed to tell him that. She couldn’t destroy someone else’s life by her already destroyed one. “Please don’t tell me you already had a lover “ He joked trying to ease anna, as he could say she was nervous.
“No, it’s not like that actually “ anna don’t know where to start because of her nervousness.
“hey, easy I don’t bite .” He spoke again.
“okay” She chuckled at his statement.
“I wanted to tell you that my family is not what you think is very good and loving its total opposite and I don’t want you to have a relation with a family like mine . she said honestly, she doesn’t want to his anything form him.
"Are you saying all this because you don't want to marry me " he spoke with an amused expression.
Anna panicked "no-i-it's not like t-that"
"oh so you want to marry me " he spoke with a smirk
"i-i "
Anna was on the verge of crying, Rean noticed it and stopped her joke immediately.
"Hey it's ok I was kidding no need to cry, I already know everything about your family.”
Anne eye widen she looked at him shocked “you know ?”
“well miss Anna, sorry to tell you this but I did a background check on your family. I don’t want to marry just anybody I have a reputation to maintain, I personally have no problem marrying you, but When my family brought this topic, I agree cause they were really happy and excited about my marriage. but after a background check on your family, I didn’t want anymore to continue with the idea, But then I got to know about you,
I am marrying you, not your family, it’s a business marriage for your father, your father gain everything in this marriage not me, but I am also not losing anything in this.
I am getting a hardworking, innocent, beautiful girl as my wife, that’s enough for me. The most important is that your opinion also matters in this.
I have everything I wanted but I just want a life partner who is loyal to me, be mine forever.
He says smiling, She might admit he has the most beautiful smile on his face. Just like how beautiful and warm his words are. Her heart flutter hearing his words.
“so miss Anna will you able to do that be the only mine,” He asked her looking at Anne who look down on her feet “i-I don’t know “
He holds her hand which was on the table, ” Be honest with me Anna it’s our life that’s matter. Don’t think about anything. And it’s not like we are getting married tomorrow or something we still have time to know each other better, so what say.
Anna was totally confused, was she dreaming, if it’s a dream she didn’t want it to be over ever. Was this really the scary businessman who can have anything is here comforting her with his words.
“I know I am handsome, but staring is rude you know” He spoke softly and Anna turned total tomato, she didn’t realize she was staring at him. She scolded herself in her mind.
“maybe I can give it a chance what can go wrong, “ she thought
Rean doesn’t know what is attracting him to her . he didn’t know if it's her beautiful eyes or the warmness that imitating from her eyes .” she is too cute “ he thought
She giggles after accepting his every word as he gives her a warm hug both lost in each other. Anna was talking to him and he was staring at her.

“She’s is kind of cute, I like her .” He spoke with a straight face. But Mr Edward caught a little smile on his lip.
“I will call her father tomorrow to give the good news,” He said to his son with a big smile.
Rean smile and close his eyes thinking about the hug how right it felt to have her in his arm, wrapped around her petite waist, He wanted to secure her make her feel protected and safe. Against his body.
On the other hand, Anna was not any good she also couldn’t stop thinking about him smiling every time thinking about the hug she got, the beautiful eye, who made her feel wanted.

Rean looked at his future wife, sleeping soundly on his bed. He was supposed to bring her to the mansion, but he decided to bring her to his penthouse since he felt a little tired to drive all the way to the mansion.He thought he could rest and sleep immediately from tiredness, but it was washed away as soon as he entered the unit. He decided to take a quick bath before engaging himself in reading some documents while drinking some coffee in his home office.He was in the middle of his bath when he heard someone scream and followed by pleading words and sobs. He immediately took a robe, covered himself and ran as quickly as he can to the room. He then saw Anna sobbing, with a tear falling on her cheeks, from having a nightmare.He went closer to her side, lightly tapped her arm and soothed her with warmth, "Shh... I'm here. Don't worry."If anyone sees this scene, they will be shocked to the bones. After all,
