Chapter 226 - Ex’s Ambition

Jack finally let go of Anne, he could not bear to see Anne get so afraid like that. Jack doesn\'t want Anne to be traumatized again.

"Get up, don\'t let anyone see us like this in the car," whispered Jack softly when he realized that Anne was closing her eyes tightly.

Hearing Jack\'s words made Anne open her eyes quickly. Her face looked like a boiled crab now. Without a word, Anne immediately sat back in an upright position. She even straightened the car seat that Jack had previously put on.

Anne was stammering, "I… I have to get back to work, you better go home."

"No, I\'ll be here waiting for you..."

"My working hours are still long Jack. I still have to work for another three more hours. Are you okay waiting that long?" Anne asked quickly, she deliberately mentioned the remaining working hours in the hope that Jack would think twice if he wanted to wait for her.

"It\'s ok, I\'ll wait. Three hours is not that long. You better get back inside. Don\'t let that Lion bastard get angry, remember my message, Anne. If he does something wrong, call me immediately," Jack answered quietly, he closed his eyes tightly.

"But Jack, aren\'t you going to be so tired of waiting for me?" Anne asked again to make sure if Jack was okay to wait for her that long.

Without opening his eyes Jack said, "I\'ve been waiting for you for two years. Three hours is not an issue for me. Just go inside, I\'ll sleep here."

Anne was gulping slowly after Jack finished answering her, she couldn\'t believe Jack would choose to wait for her in the car until she finished work. Because her break time was over, Anne left Jack and got out of the car. She was running to the elevator. When Anne was about to get into the elevator, Jack opened his eyes again and smiled. He was very happy to see Anne who was a little panicked like that.

"I don\'t know what I would have done if I didn\'t meet you Anne, that bastard Aaron has been beating the drums of war with me," Jack said quietly without taking his eyes off Anne who finally disappeared into the elevator to return to work. After making sure Anne got into the elevator, Jack closed his eyes again. He had lowered the window a little so that there would be air circulation going in and he would not get into trouble while he was sleeping.

Anne got in her office when her break was almost over. She didn\'t want to get into trouble if she took too long since she was still a new employee in the office. Anne carried the name of her campus, so she had to be disciplined. Right after Anne sat in her chair, a female employee who was her subordinate arrived. The woman told Anne that she would have a meeting with Leon and the other employees to discuss the results of the images she chose yesterday because the production of the animated film will start soon.

"Thank you, I will prepare everything. You can directly go to the meeting room. Please get everything ready. Don\'t let the meeting participants not get the file that was printed this morning, Rose," said Anne with a friendly tone to the female employee named Rose.

"Okay, Anne… please excuse me then," answered Rose briefly with a smile.

Initially, the staff under Anne called her ma\'am but Anne refused to be called that way. She felt that being called ma\'am was inappropriate for her, who was much younger than the staff. That was why Anne asked them to call her by name only. When he overheard one of the staff calling her by the name Leon didn\'t like, he thought that it was impolite. Because according to Leon, Anne\'s position was higher than the regular staff, but Anne insisted on asking to be called by her name only, and in the end, Leon couldn\'t do anything about it.

Anne continued her work again, she prepared the materials that would be used for the presentation. Some of the pictures that she chose yesterday were in her hands now. Today was the time for her to present it in front of Leon and the other team who were directly involved in the production of animated films. She would show some of the choices of pictures that she felt were suitable for the characters in the animated films since she had read the story.

After all the preparations were done, Anne then stepped into the meeting room where almost everyone was already there except Leon who was still receiving a call from Steffi. Steffi was asking him to accompany her to a charity event held by her new socialite group.

"I\'ll tell you one more time Steffi, I\'m very busy at the office right now. Production of the animated film will start soon, I don\'t have time to come to an event like that. If you still insist on forcing me to come then don\'t blame me if you will lose everything including your credit card. I will not hesitate to deactivate all your shopping cards!!" Leon said loudly, threatening Steffi.

"Honey… please don\'t be like that, you know I can\'t live without all of my credit cards. Well then, I\'ll come by myself. I\'ll explain to my friends that you\'re very busy and..."

"Don\'t get annoyed because of something like this, Steffi. I\'m sick of hearing you talk like that. You have to remember what I said earlier. I never joke around. If you call me once more because of unimportant things like this, you will regret it," Leon snapped at Steffi just before he hung up the call from his wife. He was annoyed by Steffi who kept fussing about her useless socialite groups.

Leon deliberately let Steffi do whatever she wanted. Leon did this so that Steffi won\'t interfere with his working hours at the office. Especially now that Anne was working with him, Leon didn\'t want his time with his precious Anne to be disturbed by Steffi. Therefore, he let Steffi do whatever she wanted, including attending charity activities for socialites who act as if they were the British royal family.

"Just so you wait, Steffi. Once Anne accepts me, I will kick you out of my house. You damn whore, such a useless woman. I regret marrying you," Leon cursed in his heart, he was annoyed by Steffi who kept bothering him.

After calming down, Leon then tidying up his clothes, he didn\'t want to look messy in front of Anne. He wanted Anne to always be fascinated by his good looks, just like when they first met. At that time, Anne almost dropped the glass she was holding because she saw Leon coming to the restaurant, Anne who was careless at that time annoyed Leon so much. But this time it was Leon who was trying to make Anne fall in love with him again, that was why he had to look as neat and perfect as possible in front of Anne.

With sturdy steps full of confidence, Leon walked towards the meeting room following Anne who had just arrived in the room. The meeting started not long after Leon arrived in the room. Anne immediately stood in front of everyone to do her presentation, she used her glasses during the presentation because Anne\'s eyes couldn\'t see the writing on the screen clearly when she was in a dark room like that. Seeing Anne wearing glasses made Leon couldn\'t blink her eyes, he was fascinated by Anne.

"Were you stupid or blind back then Leon? Why didn\'t you realize that this woman who was your wife is very beautiful? Why did you ignore her? You are such an idiot," Leon kept cursing his stupidity two years ago for dumping Anne who was so beautiful and intelligent. Not only that, her beauty and intelligence were now three times that of Steffi who could only burn his money.

As a result, during the meeting, Leon did not focus on the material that Anne explained. He only focused on Anne. Every word that came out of Anne\'s lips sounded so beautiful on his ears, Leon had fallen in love with Anne.

"You must be mine again, Anne. I have to get you back. I will not let anyone take you from me, you are my wife. Leonardo Ganke\'s wife," Leon thought to himself full of ambition, his lips curved into a cynical, lustful smile at Anne who had just finished her presentation.

As soon as Anne ended the presentation, there was quite a standing ovation from everyone in the room. They seemed amazed by the details that Anne just explained. Anne even made almost 80% of the visuals for the ten main characters in the animated film, which was using a theme of the life struggle of an orphan from the poorest region in Africa to achieve his dream of becoming a world-class soccer player.
