Chapter 175 - Obsession And Lust

Two days had passed since Anne met the two women who defended the seductive woman who was caught by the wife of the man she was flirting with. That night, Anne also accidentally saw Jack hugging a woman. That was why she decided to reconcile her heart so she didn't think about Jack anymore. Anne thought that Jack already had a special female friend. Anne also did not get a call from Aaron, who was busy dealing with Candice, his ex-fiancé who was trying to get back to him. Therefore, Anne could focus on studying to prepare for the final semester exams, although she was still a little distracted by Paul and Linda making out in front of her when she was studying with Linda, like today.

"Anne, don't be mad,

" Linda begged Anne who was getting ready to go home from Linda's apartment.

"Yes, miss, don't be angry,

" added Paul, feeling guilty.

"I'm not angry, I just want to go home. After all, we have finished studying Linda, so I'd better go home and rest to prepare for the exam tomorrow morning,

" said Anne quietly, smiling at Paul and Linda who held her back from going home.

"You're not mad at me, are you, Anne?

" Linda asked quietly.

"No, Linda, my God, how many times do I have to say that?

" Anne replied Linda's question loudly for the umpteenth time.

"If you're not angry then why are you going home?

" Paul asked innocently.

"Paul, it's getting late, I'm tired, I need rest. You guys don't need to go anywhere because you live here together, so what about me? I have to go home, I can't be the third person and watch your intimacy,

" replied Anne slowly, trying to be patient .

Paul and Linda were silent to hear Anne's words, because Paul was currently living in Linda's apartment after they agreed to have a relationship. So Paul didn't live at the flower shop anymore. Linda said that she has fallen in love with Paul and wanted to have a more serious relationship. Therefore, she had asked Paul to stay with her so that they could get to know each other better and Anne did not forbid what her friend and employee were doing. For her, they were both old enough to make that decision. That was why Anne allowed whatever Linda and Paul wanted to do. She didn't want to disturb Linda and Paul and didn't want to interfere in their lives.

"Then I'll just drive you home, okay...

"

"How are you going to drive me home, Paul? I came here with my car,

" said Anne, quickly cutting Paul's words while pointing to the car that was in front of them at this time.

"Okay then, but be careful, Anne. Call me when you arrive at the apartment,

" said Linda quietly.

"Yes, I know. Okay then, I'm going,

" replied Anne softly as she walked towards the place where her car was.

Not long after, Anne left Linda's apartment and headed for her apartment. Linda and Paul just entered the building when Anne was nowhere to be seen. Linda, who knew that Paul had nothing, accepted Paul with grace. She felt that Paul was a hardworking man and the right person to be a life partner. That was why she had asked Paul to live with her. She couldn't bear to see Paul living in the warehouse in the flower shop.

Because the road isn't that congested, Anne only takes forty minutes when usually it takes almost an hour, after parking the car properly Anne then goes up to her room with a bag that is quite heavy because it contains books and the laptop she just used. study with Linda.

"I'm tired,

" said Anne quietly when she had made it into her apartment.

Anne carefully placed her laptop on the sofa right next to the pile of tasks she had completed yesterday. Anne had deliberately accelerated the completion of these tasks so that she could focus on studying. Since it was late, Anne went into the bathroom to freshen up before going to bed. She chose to sleep early even though there was still early to go to bed.

Meanwhile, in his new office, Leon seemed to be busy talking to Professor Gilbert via video call. He still wanted Anne to work in his company. Therefore, he continued to urge Professor Gilbert to get Anne to sign the cooperation agreement.

"We can't push her like this, sir. That would be against the law. I don't want you to get in trouble later on because you forced her to agree to the contract you offered, sir,

" said Professor Gilbert slowly, trying to be patient with Leon.

"Well then I believe in you, Professor. Hopefully, later on, after the exam is over, she will change her mind,

" said Leon again, finally relenting.

"Yes sir, let her concentrate on the exam first. After the exam ends, we will offer her this opportunity again, hopefully she will change her mind and accept the job you gave her,

" added Professor Gilbert again, trying to calm Leon.

"Okay then, I'll wait until the exam is over,

" Leon replied, finally relenting.

Hearing Leon's words made Professor Gilbert smile. Soon, the professor ended the video call from Leon because he had to prepare materials for tomorrow's exam. Leon immediately threw away the glass that was on his table after the connection was cut off with Professor Gilbert. He felt very annoyed because his efforts to make Anne closer to him had not yielded any results.

"You will fall in my arms again, Marianne, just watch. I, Leonardo Ganke, never fail to get what I want, so you will definitely be mine again,

" Leon said emotionally as he clenched his fists while staring at the laptop screen that had Anne's beautiful face.

Leon apparently managed to get pretty pictures of Anne taken by paparazzi which he paid to disguise himself as a janitor at the UAL campus. Leon was really obsessed with Anne.

"Why didn't I know you were this beautiful, Marianne? Why didn't you look like this before? Why did you have to wear thick glasses, and tied your hair into a ponytail? Why weren't you this beautiful before, Marianne? Why did you hide your beauty from me before? Why Marianne? Aaarrgghh...**!!!

"

"You must be mine, Marianne, you must. You are my wife, we were betrothed by Grandmother, Marianne, so you must come back to me. Come back to my bed and serve me.

"

Leon continued to talk to himself while looking at Anne. Today he was very upset after finding out that Anne had blocked his cell phone number. His attempts to follow Anne and find her house always failed because Anne always disappeared when she was being followed. That was why he went crazy tonight and tried to pressure Professor Gilbert to force Anne to sign a contract to work in his office which was now starting to fill with new employees.

Meanwhile, Steffi, who didn't know that Leon was trying to get close to Anne again, was trying to beautify herself. She was at a beauty clinic doing a full body treatment, starting from the face to the intimate area. She wanted to make Leon happy with the perfection of her body.

"Your breasts are very beautiful, Ma'am,

" said a therapist who was massaging Steffi's body.

"Thank you, my husband really likes my body. That's why I have to take good care of it,

" replied Steffi with a smile.

"Yes, Ma'am, you have to take care of yourself. Beautify your appearance so that your husband is not tempted by other women, because believe me, there are lots of seductive women out there who are looking for rich men,

" said the therapist again.

The smile on Steffi's face disappeared instantly. She immediately held the therapist's hand who was applying a scrub on her body. Slowly, she then got up from the special bed and stood in front of the large mirror in the room. Steffi confidently said,

"There will be no other woman who can match the beauty of my body, let alone a poor cheap temptress hanging around out there. My husband definitely won't be tempted by them.
