"Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm back. So I won't give any woman the chance to deliberately approach my man. If it's a normal work contact, I welcome it, but if there are ulterior motives, sorry, you don't have a chance."
Anna declared her possessiveness for the first time in such a domineering way and felt very satisfied.
Hearing the warning in Anna's words, Gia awkwardly made an excuse and hung up the phone.
"Well done," Jimmy's low voice mixed with a hint of laughter sounded behind Anna.
Anna was surprised. "Did the meeting end so soon?"
Jimmy took several big steps towards her and directly hugged her in his arms.
"I like your domineering side," he said.
Anna blushed and buried her face in his chest while listening to his strong heartbeat. She felt at ease.
"The phone has been ringing all this time, and I was afraid it would delay something important for you. So I answered it. It's been years now, but that woman still has ulterior motives towards you Mr. Harrison; your charm is as strong as ever," Anna joked teasingly.
Jimmy directly held her small hand and placed it on his heart.
"It beats only for you."
...
After more than ten minutes later, Anna followed him into the conference room.
When everyone saw Anna enter with Jimmy by her side, their eyes were scrutinizing.
Anna sat next to Jimmy, looking uncomfortable.
"Let's start the meeting." His commanding voice rang out loud enough for everyone to hear
Everyone immediately withdrew their gaze from Anna.
After insisting on attending for more than ten minutes, she began feeling bored, so she just lay down on top of the conference table.
Jimmy shook his head, fearing that she might catch a cold; he took off his suit jacket and draped it over her body instead.
Seeing their usually cold CEO being so gentle towards a woman shocked everyone present at that moment.
"When reporting, speak softly." Jimmy's deep dark eyes swept over these people.
...
When Anna woke up again, she found herself already inside Jimmy's resting room.
"Awake?" His low voice lightly echoed beside her ear
Anna sat up and looked at Jimmy with a contented expression on her face.
"When did the meeting end? Why am I in here" Anna's big eyes were full of confusion.
Jimmy settled beside her, gently tucking her hair behind her ear.
"You fell asleep, so I carried you back."
Did I fall asleep during his own meeting?
Oh my god, this... is so embarrassing.
Thinking about how everyone had seen Jimmy carry her back, Anna wished she could disappear.
Jimmy stroked her cheek tenderly. "Anna, you're my wife. I'm carrying my wife. Is there a problem?"
Hearing his assertive and domineering words, Anna blushed and hid her face shyly.
"I... I am not your wife yet, you are not allowed to talk nonsense." Anna pouted and said.
