"Miss Anne was standing in front of a fancy restaurant, where Sophia and her parents were enjoying their meal together. I'm sure that Miss Anne looked at Miss Sophia's family, because from where Miss Anne was standing there was only that family that could be seen, Sir." Erick spoke politely, trying to explain what he had found to Jack.
Jack was silent after he heard Erick's words. He knew that Erick would not lie, but for some reason, he felt something odd from his assistant's words.
"I will find out further about the relationship between Miss Anne and the Higgins family, sir," added Erick quickly, trying to calm Jack.
"Good, okay then, continue your work, Erick," replied Jack slowly.
"Yes, Sir."
Jack then put away his cell phone after his call with Erick was cut off, he then turned and looked at Anne who was fast asleep. Slowly he sat back down next to Anne, his hand moving slowly to caress Anne's face gently.
"What other secrets I didn't know about you, Anne?" said Jack quietly with a loving look. "How do you know the family, Anne?"
Drowsiness began to overtake Jack. He then laid down next to Anne. He wrapped his arms over her stomach possessively without changing his clothes or Anne's. Seeing Anne cried and finally fell asleep in his arms, no doubt made him sleepy too. Not long after, Jack's soft snoring was heard as he started sailing in dreamland to catch up with Anne.

Aaron, who was very happy that his plan to approach Leonardo Ganke was successful today, was still sitting in his room, staring at the monitor screen which still showed some unfinished work.
"Even though you've also joined Ganke Inc. Production, but I'm sure Leonardo Ganke will be the first I conquered," Aaron muttered quietly without taking his eyes off the monitor screen.

"Don't be in a hurry, Boss, don't make the man suspicious of you. The most important thing is that now you have easier access to approach Miss Anne, sir," said Daniel quickly in response to Aaron's words.
Aaron turned to Daniel slowly. "I know, Daniel, you don't have to worry. The most important thing right now is that I can find Anne more easily."
"Yes, even though Leonardo Ganke is Miss Anne's ex-husband and it seems very unlikely that the man has completely forgotten about Miss Anne. So you have to be very careful, Boss," Daniel added again.
Aaron nodded his head slowly with a smile. After that, he got up from his chair and walked over to Daniel with a photo he had just taken from behind the drawer.
"Marissa and Kimberly Henderson, these two women seem to have started targeting me, Daniel. Take care of these two women, even though the bait is her sister named Kimberly, but I'm very sure that all this must be Marissa Henderson's idea to gain money. I want you to keep them away from me. I don't want anyone to bother me while I'm trying to approach Anne."
Daniel narrowed his eyes, then he reached for the photo that Aaron had just given him. "Tch, these two women again, they really never stop chasing after rich men. You don't have to worry, sir, these two women will be my responsibility."
"I believe in you. Okay then, now you come with me to a place. We have to celebrate this happy day, Daniel," Aaron said softly while squeezing Daniel's shoulder firmly enough.
Daniel nodded his head. He then got up from his chair and walked after Aaron who had left his room first. Aaron and Daniel's steps immediately stopped in the lobby when they saw Marissa and Kimberly Henderson who had just finished talking to the receptionist.

"Mr. Connery!!!" Marissa screamed loudly.
"Master..."
"Relax, Daniel, I can deal with them." Aaron immediately cut Daniel's words quickly.
Marissa immediately walked quickly to where Aaron was standing while clutching the hand of Kimberly, her sister who seemed to have difficulty in walking. Daniel, who had heard the Henderson sisters' big names, looked unfriendly at the arrival of the two girls who were famous as gold diggers. Daniel was absolutely sure that the two sisters were targeting his best friend and boss.
"I thought we wouldn't be able to see you, sir," said Marissa quietly.
"I already told you, Mr. Connery is busy. We'd better not disturb him at this time." Kimberly immediately responded to Marissa's words quickly. "Mr Connery must have a lot of work."
"Yeah, but we didn't come here without a reason, Kim. Mr. Connery should know..."
"Know what?" Daniel cut Marissa's words quickly. He couldn't stand the two women anymore.
Marissa turned to Daniel, she then took a deep breath and began to tell her about what happened to Kimberly yesterday at the shopping center. Marissa told the story in a sad tone, while occasionally patting the shoulder of Kimberly who was looking down.
"Actually I'm embarrassed to say all this, but I have no choice but to come to this place to look for Mr. Connery," said Marissa slowly ending her explanation, her eyes were red as she spoke.
"If indeed Miss Kimberly is injured, you can take her to the doctor, Miss, why did you bring your sister to our office?" asked Daniel curtly.
"Our father's company went bankrupt and was recently acquired by someone else, so we don't have the power to be free to go to the hospital as we like, sir. And to be honest, at this time we, sob... we have nothing. Yesterday when we went to the supermarket, it was to buy food to stock up in the apartment for the next week, but apparently God's destiny says otherwise," answered Marissa with tears in her eyes.
Kimberly, who was standing next to her sister, also looked down without saying a word. Aaron, who didn't believe Marissa's words, then looked at Kimberly's feet, which were now wrapped in gauze.
"If that's the case, it's better for you to go to the hospital, Miss Kimberly. I will bear all the costs of Miss Kimberly's hospital expenses, even though this is my fault and..."
"I don't need expensive treatment at the hospital, Sir, I will recover without having to get treatment at the hospital. What I need is a job, give me a job, sir. I need to work to make a living." Kimberly suddenly cut off Aaron's words quickly without lifting her face.
"A job?"

RE: DEVTHOR
From a certain author's perspective, the world he lived in had always been a boring uninteresting place. If asked if he could name one good thing about it, he probably couldn't. Up until forty, he lived in complete isolation and solitude, but he never once regretted or felt dissatisfied about the kind of life he lived. But despite being content with such a lifestyle, it seems some god... or perhaps some busybody devil galavanting about playing pretend god was immensely dissatisfied with the way he lived his life and wanted to play a sick joke on him by sending him back to his first day in high school after he died a mysterious death. Approached by a suspicious red-haired girl shortly after awakening and recognizing where he was, he's abruptly given a second chance at a youth filled with romance. But what does this forty years old man turned sixteen do when confronted with youth? He flips youth off and tells it to take a hike, he's having none of it. If there was some sort of godly existence watching over him from somewhere unknown, their only natural reaction would be to facepalm and question what was wrong with this incompetent romanceless idiot who knew nothing of love. Low fantasy only really starts to appear around volume 3. Presently there are 7 volumes for this series totaling about 850k words.
