William POV
A few days had passed since that night, I continued my activities as usual, leaving the office, going home, sleeping.
Today is the day I will officially replace my father. I prepared a few days ago about the speech I was going to give.
With this event also makes the last few days increase the pile of files that I have to work on.
In the afternoon I left using my personal car without a driver, because from a long time ago I preferred to drive myself, a private driver was just my parents' manners.
Immediately I handed over my car keys to park the vallet after arriving, and went straight up to the ballroom. I saw that many people had come. I took my foot off to say hello to some business colleagues.
I spread my eyes around the room, looking for someone. Someone who's been keeping me distracted for a few days from work. What he didn't know all this time, I used to watch him on cctv. He should have come by now, where there was a boss up first.
I experienced all the guests present at that time, it was important to build an image at an event like this. My father currently still needs bedrest at home, his condition is weakened because my father who is a hard worker makes his condition worse.
The show was almost starting, and I was still talking to my business colleagues, neat clothes and fancy dress being the uniform of today.
While talking, I saw Anna holding her drink in the corner of the room, which she then walked towards the backstage room.
Feeling like following her, I immediately say goodbye to my interlocutor and walk towards the place where Anna disappeared.
When I took a few steps, someone stood right in front of me with a big smile. I know until now I haven't been able to get rid of him, he's still chuckling if he doesn't want to part with me.
“Hai, where are you going?” Stacy asked, vain wearing a dark blue dress with a tear up to her thigh, making her look sexy in people's magazines. Stacy was always like that, she wanted to get people's attention.
“So move, the show will start soon.” I said look for a gap to avoid it.
“I won't leave before you forgive me.” He said with his arms outstretched, as if not letting me through.
“Nothing is forgiven, we are the past, will not return as it used to be.” My answer.
“We will be together, I will fix this.” Said afterwards. Then I heard someone calling him make him turn his head and not pay attention to me anymore.
This opportunity I used to walk through it. I heard her voice calling me but I heard someone else was blocking her. Good job, Vector.
Yep, Vector is my confidant, he's been working with me for a long time until I get to know his family too. It was Vector who helped me clean it up. For example, right now, I really like his sensitivity.
I finally got backstage and immediately went looking for Anna, actually I didn't know what to say, but I just wanted to see her up close.
I saw a woman I knew was on my back because I was talking to someone, I immediately walked up to her and stopped right behind her.
I admire how beautiful this woman in front of me, with her dress that is not long to the feet but knee-length with a longer back, making everyone able to see her legs.
His skin that was exposed to the light of the ballroom lights made him look brighter than usual. I realized he was surprised by my absence. Dengn deliberately pushed my body until it almost stuck to his back and raised my hand to take the mic.
Looks like the role model already knows the task because it also directly gives me a mic to wear.
I saw him shift to give me space, and I mukai chatted with the committee in front of me, I asked the rundown of today's event, and made sure everything was ready.
Anna was beside me with a look somewhere, what was she thinking?
I walked towards him and kept looking at him, I stretched out my hand holding the mic and asked him to pair it.
He came closer and knitted in front of me, I slightly raised my head so that he would be more free to put it. I smelled her sweet perfume, and I felt her finger touching my clothes, her small, long finger.
What I didn't realize was that I held my breath for a few seconds and felt my chest beating twice as fast as usual. Her serious face rubbing a mic on my collar, and her red lips, could definitely steal a lot of men's attention in this place.
The longer my mind goes somewhere, the more I focus on my speech. After he finished with my collar, I immediately stepped my foot onto the stage and began my speech as the new leader.
When I finished, with my speech, I told everyone to enjoy the dish. I got off the stage and went back to greet some important guests hlyang belim I had greeted before.
To my annoyance, Stacy came back and joined my chat group, why can't she just not call me once. With her body that she brought me close to touching, it made me uncomfortable and increasingly shifted.
I said goodbye and went back to greet the others, until I got a sense of where Anna was, which I realized, there was someone I knew as Anna's lover was there. Immediately I approached the horde and greeted the guests.
From here I realized that the person who turned out to be Anna's lover was one of my co-workers. I know that info because of Vector. I told her to search about the man Stacy was sleeping with at first, but it followed up finding other information that he was Anna's lover.
I took the wine the waiter was waiting for and finished it while talking. And again I saw Stacy walking towards me, feeling a sign of danger, and I went around again.
And I realized I didn't see Anna and Clayton anymore. I looked around and found no two human noses.
I decided to walk to the bathroom, the hallway I passed had a glass barrier with the outside world, so we could see the beauty of the city, the traffic jam that until this hour is still happening.
As I was about to get to the public toilet, I heard the sounds of clashing and moaning in the bathrooms.
The closer the closer the more clearly heard the sound, not the groan of the kenikamatan but rather the groans of pain yanh increasingly heard.
Immediately I quickened my steps and saw the closed door of the woman's bathroom. I opened it quickly and I saw a scene that surprised me.
I saw Clayton strangling and mocking the rebellious Anna. Anna's clenching voice grew smaller and I knew it didn't show any improvement.
I pulled out his collar with one hand and my other hand started to smash him in the face. Banging him into the door of the bathroom stall caused his hinge to break one.
There was nothing I was thinking about right now other than destroying this one bastard, for some reason I felt my chest heat up and a sense of resentment also angry, very angry.
I kept beating him until I felt a pair of hands pull me forcibly and tried to stop my actions.
I was still rebelling and saw the vector in front of me pushing my shoulder away while resuscitating me not to continue beating.
Somehow now I'm being cornered on the bathroom wall and there's some people coming in and groping Clayton out with a battered face. He didn't give me the impetus to get my punch back.
I kept looking at the bastard with my cruel face, until they took him out of the bathroom and I couldn't see him.
Instantly my gaze was focused on someone who had broken down and cried. I can't bear to see it, why did that guy do it.
I walked towards him slowly and squatted in front of him. I tried to calm him down but all I got was him moving away with a trembling body.
“Hey, it's me William, it’s okay you're safe now.” I said as soft as I could. I watched her reaction all the time, I saw her getting calmer and I raised my hand to stroke her hair. Subtly.
Suddenly he hugged me tightly, I could still feel that his body was currently trembling in fear. I took his arms tightly. I leaned my head against her head and closed my eyes, feeling the warm embrace of an Annabella.
He cried in my arms, out all the tears he had. My heart was squeezed, as if I could feel the emotions he was feeling.
I embraced him until his crying subsided and his trembling began to disappear. Until he finally began to distance himself and began to look down, looking at the floor.
I lifted her face so I could see her, but the thing I didn't expect at all, she was more focused on the stains on my shirt. Just this time I saw a woman who was in this state and was more concerned with other people's clothes than her appearance.
“Ma.. forgive me, sir.”
“You're thinking about my clothes? Can my clothes worry you?” I try to be a little funny.
After a while, I offered him to take him home, at first he refused, but I insisted and I was the winner. Boss is still boss, I can use it in this situation.
We walked out of the bathroom, I was thinking about what was going on when I heard a loud noise and I saw him just confirming the location of the trash can, how in this condition, he said, he still had time to be careless.
We walked to the lower lobby and waited for the vallet to call my car. I knew at first he hesitated to drive me home, even hesitating to get in my car if I didn't tell him to come in.
Selma travels, none of us start a conversation, we both enjoy this silence. Scroll him and he was looking out the car window.
I want to open the lamp and see the contents, why does it seem like he has a lot of problems. Whatever he was thinking in his little keala.
Even though the trip was silent, I enjoyed it. There's something I want to ask you but I doubt if he'll reply or make her feel uncomfortable.
How would he react if he found out that the person who cheated on him with his girlfriend was my ex, would he hate me too?
It did not feel like this trip had to end because it had now arrived in front of his apartment building.
As she was holding the door handle to get out, I reflexively held her hand. It's like my hand has a mind of its own.
“Wait..” I said but I kept facing forward, because I couldn't control my heartbeat.
After a few seconds I clasped his hand, I started to wake up and let go of his hand.
I didn't even notice when he answered me.
“Hmm... Not so.” That's all I can say.
I let him out and I immediately drove my car back home. On my way I called Victor, I made sure Clayton bastard wouldn't point his nose in front of me again, at least I didn't want him to be his company representative for my meeting.
...****************...
In the morning I went to work as usual, I turned on my computer and started to open files that I had not seen.
I saw Anna taci was already at her desk, and I just passed by her and smiled a little before entering my room.
The clock showed me almost lunchtime when I heard a little noise outside and finally saw the door of my room open and I saw Stacy coming in with security behind her.
What else he would do today, didn't he have much work he could do. Then where is Anna, does she not know it.?
“I'm sorry sir, we told this lady not to come in because you don't want to be disturbed, but this lady refused.” Said one security fear.
I realized that at this time I was showing a face that was not pleasant to look at, I could feel my mood drastically changing to lackluster at this time.
“Leave us both.” I said while pointing at the gesture that I was okay. Nor is security wrong.
When you want to stand up and go to him. I heard my phone vibrate at the sign of an incoming call. I saw “pop” appear on my phone screen. I picked up the call without waiting. I hope nothing bad happens.
But one question came up the first time I picked up the call.
“You're really engaged to your girlfriend??!!”
