Unexpected Love: One Night With Mr CEO

Chapter 26 - 26. I See Her



And only wakes up when the cellphone rings again.

Glancing at the screen, Devan just ignored it. It was as if the man had no intention of answering at all.

It was Leo, his cousin. And today, the man kept bothering him making Devan feel uncomfortable.

The flat-shaped object kept ringing, making Devan reach for it and turn off his cell phone.

He knew very well his cousin's habits.

Devan glanced at the watch in his hand briefly, it was late at night.

Immediately he left the office, returned home. For some reason it felt like today he was very tired, his body felt crushed and his head was throbbing a little.

No one knows how many times tired sighs escaped his lips while driving the car.

....

The next day. Devan went about his usual routine at the office, struggling with various important documents and files.

His attention was distracted when the door to his room was suddenly opened. Again it was Leo who came through.

"You know? It's still working hours, Leo," said Devan leaning in his chair.

As if ignoring Devan's words, Leo immediately approached him. "Why don't you ever answer my calls?" asked him landing his body on the sofa in the room.

"It doesn't matter," Devan replied curtly.

"Don't say like that if you don't know what I want to talk about," Leo said again.

"You better get out. I'm busy," Devan reached back for his tablet and checked some files there.

"Have you found Anna's whereabouts?"

Devan's fingers stopped for a moment and then continued again, checking the files on his tablet.

"Hey, I'm asking you."

"It's none of your affairs, get out. I'm busy."

"Hey, hey, that's bad. Listen to me first, Devan," Leo replied as he relaxed his body on the sofa.

"Whatever," Devan replied briefly and flatly, it seemed that the man had no intention of caring about Leo's existence.

"I saw her yesterday," Leo began.

Immediately Devan raised his gaze, "Who do you mean? If you just want to talk about your girlfriend, you better get out of here."

Leo who heard that just smiled, as if the man was already immune to his cousin's attitude.

"I mean Anna. I saw her yesterday."

Immediately Devan's body stiffened at Leo's words, but he hastily normalized his expression and then resumed his activities.

"Yesterday, I contacted you because of this, but you ignored me," Leo said again while assessing Devan's expression. He knew very well that his cousin had been looking for Anna since the girl disappeared five years ago.

"Looks like he's married."

"And also have a child who is about four years old maybe?" added Leo again.

"Okay, since I have told you, then I will go now," said the man again when he did not get any response from Devan, he then moved from his position.

"Where did you see her?" Finally, Devan spoke making Leo smile faintly.

"I suggest not looking for her, Dev. She's married and has kids. I don't want to have my cousins ​​ruining other people's relations."

"Where did you see her?" asked Devan repeating the same question.

"In the cafe in front of my office, I saw her during recess. But she doesn't seem to be aware of my existence, or is it because she has forgotten about me," Leo replied. Currently, the man already has his own company, in contrast to five years ago, where Leo was still in the same company as Devan.

Hearing the man's narrative, Devan resumed his activities that had been delayed, as if he didn't care about Leo's words.

"Okay, then I'll go," Leo said turning around while waving his hand, leaving Devan's room with a smile on his lips.

As the door closed, Devan leaned back while massaging his throbbing head again, maybe because last night he only slept for a moment? Yes, ever since the girl disappeared, he had trouble sleeping.

A heavy sigh escaped his lips again.

For some reason, his heart ached when he heard Leo say that the girl was married and had a child. However, he tried to refuse to believe in all that before he proved it.

Being in that position for a few minutes, Devan then grabbed his cellphone and then appeared to be calling someone.

It was now lunchtime, yet Devan was still in his room.

A few moments later, "Clarissa, from tomorrow onwards, clear my schedule at eleven to two o'clock," said Devan suddenly appear from his room and then closed the door again without waiting for a response from the secretary, and it managed to make the secretary startled, gawking in the place.
