Chapter 885: Aaron's Love For Anna (part two)

"Err… Mr. Xia, what're you talking about? Don't make fun of me." Aaron played dumb again. He could understand why Edward knew of his relationship with Anna, but why did Rain also know? This was completely insane.

Well, I owe you an apology. I didn't mean to spy on you, but it looked like you forced Anna into a kiss." Rain smiled mischievously and squinted at Aaron, who flushed with tension.

Force? What? You -- we're dating, you idiot!" Irritated by what Rain said, Aaron spilled the beans. He pretty much admitted that he kissed Anna.

"Oh, so you're in love with each other? Why did I see Anna struggling to break free? Is that a way to start a relationship?" Rain saw Aaron kiss Anna when he sat quietly in his car in the parking lot. He watched them for a long time, but they kissed passionately as if they were all alone in this world.

My car's a compact, so she bumped against the window. For God's sake! Why am I even explaining this to you? Are you some kind of pervert, peeking into our car? Why didn't you let us know that you parked nearby?" Aaron stared at Rain angrily. He knew exactly where Rain saw them, because they didn't dare to behave intimately in the company building. They figured that they didn't need to let others know, but he was seized with a sudden impulse to kiss Anna after they got off work in the parking lot that day.

"Why should I let you know? Aren't you trying to keep your relationship secret? Not like you're doing a good job of it now... Go ahead. It won't be interesting if I rat you out." Rain gave Aaron a sinister look and continued, "You know, I'm a wicked person."

"Damn it! I must have been insane to mention it to you. Promise me that you won't ask Anna about this." Aaron was upset. They thought they had covered up their relationship nicely. Little did they know that both Edward and Rain knew. Did it mean that their colleagues had also figured it out?

Why can't I ask her? It's a good thing that you're in love. It's not murder or arson. I don't know why you have to cover it up. God, you're boring," Rain snorted. He always judged others but never reflected on his own faults. This was the reason why Annie was angry with him.

"Leave us alone. You're not allowed to ask her about it." Saying this, Aaron raised his fist threateningly.

"Hi, guys. What're you talking about? It's positively popping in here." Daisy heard the ruckus before she stepped into the office. She stood at the door for some time, wondering if she should come in. The door was left ajar, so she heard vaguely that someone was in love.

Nothing, nothing at all, Mrs. Mu." Aaron replied, his eyes narrowing at the figure behind her. He was trying his best not to sound hysterical.

Daisy, don't believe him. We are discussing when we can attend him and Anna's wedding." Rain wanted to stir up trouble. He wouldn't let Aaron muddle through this so easily. In fact, Rain was trying to help Aaron and Anna. Since Aaron had admitted that they were dating, he wanted to declare it for him. Then they wouldn't have to sneak around anymore. Problem solved.

What? Is it true, Anna? Are you dating Aaron? Wow, that's wonderful. Congratulations!" Daisy's face lit up with happiness. She always thought both Aaron and Anna were awesome and wanted to bring them together, but Edward said that it was absolutely impossible for them to fall in love with each other. See? Sometimes truth can hit you like a slap.

"Err…" Anna was hesitant and didn't know what to say. She glared at Aaron with burning, reproachful eyes as she thought that Aaron told Rain about their relationship, or Rain wouldn't have known about it.

Well, Anna, all of us know now. Why don't you just admit it?" Rain was worried about Aaron and Anna. Wasn't it a good thing for them to fall in love with each other? Why were they trying to hide it from everyone?

"Don't look at me like that. I didn't tell them squat. They figured it out themselves." Aaron felt wronged and shrugged his shoulders. What could he do?

Well, Anna, you're one of us. Don't hide the truth. You should share such amazing news. This calls for a drink!" Daisy gently patted Anna's shoulder with a comforting look.

Mrs. Mu, this is not the case. We just feel that it is not very convenient to work together at the company as a couple." Anna pursed her lips. She was not a person who pretended to be bashful. Since Daisy said that, she admitted it frankly.

"Why isn't it convenient? You're young, and it's natural for you to fall in love with each other. Does your CEO stipulate that the employees in this company can't be in love?" Daisy moved her gaze to the man who had been staring at her since she entered the office and squinted at him with a challenging look.

Don't look at me like that. I have never given such an order. I'm not that much of a dick to force my employees to remain single," Edward explained. He folded under Daisy's withering glance. Seeing this, Rain couldn't help but suppress a giggle and wondered why Daisy came back so early today.

"Come on Aaron, Anna's a good girl. You can't let her down." As a woman, Daisy had to side with Anna.

"Mrs. Mu, you have my word. I swear I'll be good to her." Aaron smiled at Anna, but the latter rolled her eyes at him, indicating that he would suffer later.

"Ha-ha! Aaron, it looks like Anna's not happy. It's the couch for you tonight!" Rain was happy. He got even with Aaron. Aaron had said something to frustrate him when he went to pick up Annie at that time. Edward would get what was coming to him too, when the opportunity presented itself.

"Come on! It's just between us. You don't need to worry about it." Aaron rolled his eyes at Rain angrily. If it wasn't for him, Anna wouldn't be angry. So, as everyone knew, Rain was to blame.

I was worried about you, so I tried to help. I can't bear seeing others having a hard time." There was a bright smile on Rain's face. He was excited after he got his way.

"Stop it. I think you're having way to much fun laughing at my bad luck. Forget it. I have to get to work. We're done shooting the bull." After stating his piece, Aaron nodded to Daisy and walked out with Anna. Since they all knew it, he wouldn't have to hide it anymore.

Oh. You use work as an excuse. What you really want is to ask Anna to forgive you." Now Rain had to look for joy from other people, because he didn't have anything to please himself.

"How about you? You have to make things right with Annie. Stop showing off. She won't come back if you stay here. Oh right. You have to go to Thailand tomorrow!" Edward thought that Rain had to try his luck, lest he would live the rest of his life like a lovelorn zombie.

"What? Wait, Edward, are you serious? Do you really want to send me to Thailand?" Rain's smile instantly froze on his face. He didn't think Edward was serious. He just teased Aaron a minute ago, but now he was down on his luck. God help him.

Do you think I'm joking now?" Edward cast a cold look at Rain. If he didn't give Rain a hard time, Rain would definitely not go abroad, so he had to order Rain as the CEO.

No. Daisy, I don't want to go to Thailand! Could you please help me convince Edward to send someone else there?" Rain realized that he couldn't change Edward's mind, so he had to pin his last hope on Daisy.

I'm sorry, Rain. I really can't help you with this. I don't have the right to interfere in his work arrangement, just as Edward can't interfere in my work. So you're on your own." Daisy smiled apologetically. Although really it was Edward's promise, she felt she should do the same. Mutual respect was very important in a marriage.
