Unexpected Love: One Night With Mr CEO

Taking off the bathrobe he was wearing, Devan was shirtless and only wearing swimming trunks. The cool afternoon breeze made his whole body relax.

Each time his focus returned to the events of this afternoon, for some reason he wanted to just soak in cold water for the whole day.

Until the light slowly turned to night, Devan stepped out of the pool, put on his bathrobe again, walked into the house.

While on the other hand, Anna was sitting on the bed and was stretching her arm muscles a bit. The woman had woken up a few minutes ago. Looking at the sky that had already lost its hue, Anna let out a shaky breath. Turns out she fell asleep again.

Slowly she got off the bed and walked to the sofa where her bag was. This time she had to muster up the courage to turn on her cell phone. Because it is very unlikely if she will delay it continuously.

Her hands trembled as the light of her cell phone got brighter, Anna quickly looked for Naila's contact, it turned out that there were so many incoming messages, she ignored them and immediately called the girl.

Just two taps connected and someone finally picked up the call.

"Hello."

Immediately a sigh of relief escaped from between Anna's lips when she heard a very familiar voice in her ears.

"Hello, Naila."

And the same is heard from the other side.

"Huff, thank goodness you're okay, Anna. We're really worried about you because your number is unreachable."

"Erm, I'm fine now, don't worry. How are you? And Dave? How about my son?" asked Anna in a voice that sounded a little hoarse.

"We're safe and well. Don't worry. As for Dave, he's always asking where you are."

Anna took a deep breath.

"Oh yeah where are you now? What's your plan?" asked Naila again.

"I managed to escape, luckily I met my friend. So now I'm at his house," answered Anna.

"Tell me your address, I'll be there as soon as possible," she asked again.

Hearing that, Naila then said the address of the place where she and Dave are currently.

"Okay, I'll be there tonight, or tomorrow at the latest," said Anna.

"Um fine."

"Then I'll close first," said Anna.

"Ah wait..." Anna spoke again as if she remembered something.

"Why?"

"I almost forgot to say that maybe after this I won't call you for a while. Brian knows my number, I'm afraid if he calls me again..so I'll be deactivating it for the time being."

"You don't have to, Anna. Why don't you just throw your sim card away? Don't put it back in."

"But your contact..."

"You can call me later using your friend's number when you get a new Sim card. You know my number right? If not you have to do it now, don't turn off the connection," said Naila.

Anna did not respond anymore and immediately obeyed Naila's words.

"Already?"

"Wait, just a little more."

Until a few minutes had passed, "Okay, I'll call you later," said Anna who finally made a voice.

"Okay. We are waiting for you here," replied Naila from the other side.

"Greetings to Dave, tell him his mother is coming soon."

"Okay. I'll pass this on to him."

"Then I hang up the phone," said Anna.

"Okay, take good care of yourself, Anna," replied Naila and after that, the connection was cut off.

Anna reflexively threw her body on the back of the sofa while heaving a sigh of relief, after exchanging the news with Naila, it felt as if some of the weight on her shoulders had been lifted slightly.

"Be patient honey. I'll follow you there soon," Anna muttered with a smile on her lips. She didn't realize that Devan had been standing behind her since earlier.

The relaxed feeling Anna felt only lasted a few minutes when her cell phone rang again. Maybe because she was shocked that she reflexively dropped the flat-shaped object to the floor.

One of her hands was on her chest while the other tried to reach for her cellphone slowly, and slowly she glanced at her cellphone screen until the name on it was visible.

BRIAN CALLING…

Suddenly Anna's body stiffened, frozen in place. She then intended to turn off her cellphone again, but before that happened, a strong hand suddenly grabbed a flat-shaped object in her hand making the woman gasp in surprise.

She immediately looked back and found Devan wearing a bathrobe standing very close to her.

"What are you doing?" Anna rose from her position.

"Who's Brian?"

"None of your business."

"WHO'S BRIAN, ANNA?"

"NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS."

"Is he the same man as five years ago?" asked Devan lowering his voice.

Hearing Devan's question, Anna suddenly fell silent with her head down, looking very reluctant to answer the man's question.

When he saw Anna's response, Devan smiled faintly.

"Hello." Devan decides to pick up Brian's call, and that manages to make Anna lookup.

"What are you doing?" Asked Anna with a muffled scream, she then tried to reach for her cellphone that was stuck to the man's ear, but unfortunately, her attempt failed because it was difficult to reach it, it was all because of her short body.

"Who are you?" a man's response from the other side.

"I should be asking, who are you?" asked Devan, one hand holding Anna's head so she wouldn't come close and snatch her cell phone.

"Where is the owner of this phone?"

"Under me," Devan replied casually, what he said was true, Anna's short body made it seem as if she was under people who had tall stature. It's just that his words seem to have been misinterpreted by his interlocutor.

"FUCK, YOU'RE TOYING ME?" cussed Brian from the other side.

"WHO ARE YOU TO DARE TO SAY LIKE THAT?" he added, anyone who heard him could tell that the man was now filled with anger.

"Me? Maybe you could call me her roommates? Bathmates? Or…"

Devan has not finished his sentence and Brian has cut the connection unilaterally.

While on the other hand, Anna froze on the spot, gawking like an idiot when she heard the two's conversation.

Sensing no movement from the woman, Devan turned his head.

"You're still in touch with that bastard?" Brian asked, clutching his chest.

"Didn't you kiss me just because you wanted to..."

"STOP, don't continue it again," said Anna cutting Devan's sentence, immediately she grabbed her cellphone in the man's hand, took out her sim card, and smashed it into several pieces. Anna sobbed, tears obediently running down her cheeks.

For some reason, she felt her heart hurt again. Flashes of events from five years ago spun like a broken record in her head. Her current pain was no longer over what Brian had done to her, but rather for herself.

Anna is hurting herself, everything that is happening in her life right now starts with herself.

If only at that time she did not accept Brian in her life.

If only at that time she did not give her heart to someone else.

If only that night she had not met Devan.

If only at that time, she ended her own life, maybe none of this would have happened.

It turns out that the saying is true, what you do now you will reap in the future.
