Anna's POV:

I just want to see Mark's face whether he is ok or not, so I peep my head slowly into his room even though he is in the meeting...

Because I feel worried from the moment, I heard his low worried voice on the phone...

So if I see him, I feel better...

I looked in his room there are no other officers in his room maybe the meeting is about to start...

In between my thoughts, Mark looked at me when I am looking at him secretly.

He immediately came close to me in shock and happy at the same time and kissed me very warmly...

After our kiss, I realized Genie is staring at us in shock and I understand she said lies regarding Mark's meeting...

And I don't want to raise issues, so I left the topic…

I don't want her to know that how close we are in relationship but when Mark treated me with welcome kiss, she may understand our relationship but with her sudden entry in the room when I sit on Mark's lap, she will definitely understand that we are in a deep relationship...

Mark warned her, but I guess she came to check on us and her sudden entry really embarrassed me...

But I feel eternally happy when Mark is enjoying the dessert and when he offered me a gift, the first thought I got is about his appointment letters and I ask him the same...

But he in return offered me an access card where I can reach him anytime I want without his permission...

Mark: Are you happy?

Anna: Why not...

(And we both laughed to each other...)

Mark: Thank you, Anna, for your visit to my office...

Anna: I feel worried the moment I heard your low voice Mark...

Mark: Yeah, I feel a little depressed after I speak to Tom about Ria's case...

Anna: What happened?

(He didn't look at me, and I understand something happens in Ria's case, and he is hesitating to say it to me...

Anna: Please Mark...

Tell me what happened?

(He still involved in his deep thoughts…)

Anna: Please tell me what Tom said to you...

Mark: Nothing Anna, the know facts...

All the 3 culprits accepted they are guilty, and they confirmed that the 4th person is John...

Anna: Ok...

Mark: But they don't know about the 5th culprit...

Anna: What?

They don't know?

Mark: Yes, Anna...

Maybe we can find the 5th culprit after we catch John but there is no clue to catch John...

(I don't know why I feel relieved by listening to Mark, maybe because they didn't say it's my dad...

And it is a chance to prove my dad's genuinity and soon we will find the 5th culprit and Mark will understand that my dad is out of Ria's case...)

But meanwhile, you should stay strong, Mark...

If you are not strong enough to face the situations, I may lose my hope and strength by looking at you...

It delays in solving Ria's case...

(He nodded his head as ok...)

Mark: Anna, do you know any friends of John is gay?

Or any relative or friend to your father or mother is gay?

(What?

What he just said?

Is he asking me about gay?

Is it coincidence or he got the information that I met a gay today who is a bank employee.)

Anna: What?

Mark: Yes, Anna...

Please let me know if you know any gay who is particularly your relative or family friend…

Anna: No, Mark...

I don't know any...

Why are you asking about a gay all of a sudden?

Mark: Tom said a Gay involved in the case…

(I feel relieved after Mark said the actual fact and as far as I know, I don't have any family friends or relatives who are gay; I say the same thing to Mark...)

Anna: Can you tell me clearly…

Mark: A gay is helping John to hide under the cover of law and he is in love with John, so he is helping him and his friends...

Anna: A gay is loving John?

But as far as I know, John is not gay...

Mark: Maybe he is trapping him that he is gay and seeks his help to escape from the case...

Anna: That never gonna happen, Mark...

And I don't let it happen...

He should get punishment for his acts towards Ria and my mother...

(Mark immediately get up and come close to me and hugged me gently...)

Mark: Yes, Anna, he should get punishment…

Anna: ok, Mark, I will leave now...

Mark: leave?

Anna: Yes...

I know I wasted your time till now, but I don't want to waste it further...

Mark: No, Anna, you didn't waste my time; instead, you boost my energy...

Anna: Really?

(He nods his head as yes...)

Anna: ok then, finish your work as early as possible and come home...

As of now, I am leaving...

Mark: No, Anna, stay here. I will finish my work in two hours...

We can go together...

(I don't have any work to do, so I accepted, and he happily smiles at me and pecked me on my lips and started doing his work...

But when it comes to his work, he is very serious, and he didn't turn his head too...

I sit on the couch and watching him while he is busy in doing his work and I enjoyed a lot by looking at his sharp eyes staring on the work documents and his Charming face when he is doing work...

I can't take off my eyes when he is doing his work...

He looks soo cute and mesmerizing...
