Ganke Inc Production's atmosphere felt even more tense without Anne's presence. After Priscilla, the HR staff, informed that Anne was absent from work due to illness, Leon became more fierce and irritable. Many innocent people were blasted with his angered. Isabel and Gabriella, who were usually noisy, didn't even dare to open their mouths after hearing Leon had blow up in anger in the meeting room at the financial staff, who had prepared the wrong report.

"I paid you dearly, do everything from scratch and bring it to my room. You only have thirty minutes.

" Leon rebuked with emotion as he threw the financial staff report on the table.

"If you do it wrong again, you'd better get out of my company, I really don't like working with incompetent people.

"

The four financial staff who stood full of guilt in front of Leon were silent while looking down. None of them dared to answer Leon's words. Soon, the four of them left the meeting room to work on the report again from the beginning, leaving Leon alone.

Bam!

Leon threw a pile of files in front of him full of emotion. After that, he just left the meeting room without a word, and went back to his room. Because his mood was ruined, Leon finally decided to leave the office. He left some works that actually had to be done today. Not being able to see Anne had really ruined his mood.

After Leon left, the office atmosphere became calmer. Edward himself, who actually wanted to go home because he wanted to find Anne, canceled his intention. He preferred to stay in the office, completing all his work because the work he was currently dealing with was directly related to Anne's duties as head of illustration. That was why he chose to stay in the office so as not to cause trouble to Anne.

Meanwhile, at Connery Corporation, Daniel was getting a new assignment from Aaron to guide Marissa and Kimberly Henderson, who started working at Connery Corporation today. The two sisters were placed in the planning department under Aaron's direct care. That was why Daniel took care of the two women directly. At first, Daniel was against Aaron's decision to hire Marissa and Kimberly Henderson. But after Aaron informed him that the company Romeo Henderson, the father of the two women, was completely bankrupt, Daniel finally agreed, with a note that the two girls had to get the same treatment as other employees even though Kimberly was injured because of Aaron.

"Is it done?

"

Daniel, who had just arrived in Aaron's room, was silent, he didn't answer Aaron's question. What he did was grab Aaron's drink which was on the table and immediately gulped all of it down.

"Just watch out if the two women cause trouble, I don't want to interfere,

" Daniel said quietly as he placed the empty mineral water bottle on the table.

Aaron smiled and said,

"Don't worry, they're my business. They won't mess around anyway. Connery Corporation isn't the same as their father's company, so you don't have to worry about it, Daniel. Now you better finish Leonardo Ganke's unfinished paperwork, I want all the documents ready today. I miss Anne already, I want to see her. I didn't get to talk to her yesterday.

"

After getting the orders, Daniel got up from his seat and walked to his room to finish his unfinished task, the new contract agreement that had been revised yesterday by Leonardo Ganke when they met. As soon as Daniel left, Aaron continued his work. His smile widened as he remembered Anne again.

"I will be a man you can rely on, Anne, wait for me. I will come and pick you up from Leonardo Ganke's grip,

" said Aaron quietly. Even though it was his first time coming to Ganke Inc. Production, but Aaron already felt that Anne was very uncomfortable in that office. Working in the same office with an ex-husband was not an easy thing. That was why Aaron planned to get Anne out of Leon's office. Aaron also knew that the reason why Anne worked in the office was because of the cooperation agreement between Anne's campus and Leon, therefore he was trying to enter the UAL campus to look for a loophole so that he could take over the cooperation between Ganke Inc, Production and the UAL campus, or at least so that Anne could stop working in Leon's office.

Even though he knew that Anne was currently only an intern during the college holidays, Aaron wanted to cut off Leon's opportunity to continue hiring Anne again. That was why he was doing his best to get into the best art college in London. Aaron used his power as a native British entrepreneur to pressure the campus to break the partnership, especially since Leon's company was a new company that had only been around for a few months. Aaron was sure that he could get Anne out of Leon's grip, Aaron was sure that the collaboration made by Leon and the campus was just an excuse to ensnare Anne again. Although authentic evidence stating that Anne and Leon were ex-husband and wife had not yet found, but Aaron believed that Anne was honest, as Daniel previously said to him that most of what was happening today were many married women who claimed to be single women and it was impossible there was a woman who would claim to be a widow if she really was not a widow. That was why now Aaron was sure that Anne had not lied to him. Even though Anne was a widow, Aaron didn't mind that anymore. For him, as long as he was with Anne, that was enough. He wanted to close all the bad memories that happened to him years ago and start a new life journey with Anne, starting from scratch.

"Okay Kim, we have entered this company. We have gone a step further this time, you must be smart to take advantage of this opportunity to get Aaron Connery,

" Marissa whispered softly to Kimberly as she passed her sister in the pantry.

Kimberly nodded her head in response to her sister's words, because she didn't want anyone to know of their plans. Kimberly finally decided to leave her sister alone in the pantry, limping because her leg had not completely healed. Even though her leg hurts, Kimberly didn't regret it. At least, with a little sacrifice she was now a little closer to her potential prey. Rich, young and handsome Aaron Sean Connery.

"It's okay, Kim, endure this little pain of yours. After you succeed in becoming Mrs. Connery, all your pain will be paid off, and you can live comfortably like before. Buy whatever you want without even looking at the price tag anymore, just be patient, Kimberly,

" Kimberly said in her heart, trying to calm herself down as she continued to stare at the photo of Aaron that she kept on her cell phone.
