Chapter 884 Aaron’s Love For Anna (Part One)
"Come on, Aaron, are you telling me you''re worried that Shaun will go nuts after he knows hispany
is about to go bankrupt?" Edward teased Aaron, twitching his eyebrows. "He will be shaken," he
continued, "That''s exactly what I want."
"No, I''m not worried at all. I don''t know the guy, so why would I be worried? I have a lot of work to do. I
don''t have time to care about a stranger." Aaron angrily rolled his eyes at Edward. What a question!
Why would he worry about a stranger?
"Then why do you care if he will be angry or not? Since he tried to mess with me, he has to pay the
price. I won''t attack unless I''m attacked; if I''m attacked, I''ll definitely counterattack. I won''t let him go so
easily." Edward gnashed his teeth in hatred.
"Mr. Mu, is it true that the woman is Jessica? Excuse my terrible memory, but that doesn''t look like her."
Aaron touched his head inquiringly. He''d run into Jessica a couple of times, so he had a hazy memory
of what she looked like, but he didn''t see any simrity between the woman in the photo and her.
"She can change her facial appearance, but her voice remains the same. If you hear her talk, you''ll
know it''s her." Edward''s lips curled in a contemptuous smile. Jessica was stupid. She thought that she
could deceive Edward by disguising herself. Maybe she didn''t expect that her voice would betray her.
"Mr. Mu, what game is she ying? Hasn''t she given up on you?" Like Rain, Aaron also enjoyed
talking about other people''s private lives.
"How would I know that? You can go ask her personally if you''re curious. What her game is doesn''t
matter to me. She isn''t the one I love, so why bother?" Edward was indifferent to other women as he
was sweet on Daisy.
"I''m not crazy. The less contact I have with that woman, the better." Aaron showed the whites of his
eyes. Suddenly, he realized that Edward could always say something to make him speechless.
"Curiosity kills the cat. I thought you wanted to know. Well, forget it. How are you doing with Anna?"
Edward asked with a casual air. He bowed his head, his pen flowing rapidly over the paper. Aaron was
so shocked that he almost slipped onto the floor from his seat.
"What -- What do you mean, Mr. Mu? I don''t know what you''re talking about." Aaron''s face convulsed in
a series of twitches. How could Edward know? He thought he''d kept his rtionship with Anna on the
DL. He''d underestimated Edward again.
"You heard me. Don''t y dumb with me. Don''t tell me you''re not dating." Edward raised his head and
yfully narrowed his eyes at Aaron. A smug smile hung on his lips.
"Err… We''re not dating. Stop kidding." Aaron couldn''t look Edward in the eye. How could Edward know
that Anna had just agreed to be exclusive with him and that they were officially a couple?
"Really? Fine. Since you''re not dating, you won''t mind if I set up Anna on a blind date, right? There''s a
couple guys I know..." Edward disyed a timely smile, a mirthless one that used his mouth, not his
eyes. He was sure that Aaron would cave in and tell him the truth after he said this.
"Come on. When do you even care about the private life of your employees? It''s not like you." Aaron
was frustrated. What was wrong with Edward? Why did he spend his free time monitoring them? He
was even prying into their rtionships. Was nothing private?
"I don''t care about other employees, but you''re different. You two work under my nose. It''s easy for me
to figure things out. You two have been working together for several years, but you didn''t win her heart
until now." Edward was sincerely happy for Aaron and Anna. He was close to them, and really cared
how they felt.
"You got me, fine. I guess I can''t hide it anymore. But please don''t ask Anna about it. I promised her
that I wouldn''t say anything. If she knows that I''ve told you about it, she''ll be mad at me." Aaron hung
his head. He had vowed to Anna that he''d keep their rtionship secret. If other people knew about
them, he''d never hear the end of it.
"Did you think you could hide it from us forever? You can''t wrap fire in paper. It''s not like it''s some great
secret. Why are you so afraid of being found out? Don''t date in a sneaky way. Just tell everyone that
you''re dating." Edward wasn''t afraid of making his dates public. He frankly admitted that Daisy was his
wife and they had a cute boy Justin although he was secretive in the beginning. In his eyes, it wasn''t a
shameful thing to be in love, so there was no need to cover it up.
"Mr. Mu, as you know, Anna is rather bashful. I asked her out and she said yes. I need to look carefully
before taking each step. I can''t drive her up the wall, or I won''t have a girlfriend anymore. I know that
much." As Edward said, Aaron and Anna worked under his nose. He had a good eye for detail and
noticed everything. It was impossible for them to cover up their rtionship. Since he brought it up
himself, Aaron didn''t want to hide it from him anymore.
"As you wish. But since I''ve already noticed it, Rain will figure it out too. He has a lot of experience with
women and dating. He''ll know, believe me." Edward didn''t want to make their rtionship public. He
wanted to confirm it, so he asked Aaron to straight up.
"I''m not worried. Mr. Xia has been preupied with thoughts of Annie recently, so he doesn''t have any
time to pay attention to silly things like my personal life." Aaron felt relieved when it came to Rain. He
found that Rain seemed to be dispirited and show no interest in anything recently. He wouldn''t be in the
mood for gossiping about others.
"Are you talking about me?" And that was when Edward and Aaron suddenly heard Rain''szy voice.
He leaned against the door, curling up his lips and blinking at them with his charming eyes.
"No. Why would we be talking about you? You''re not a rock god." Aaron ridiculed Rain calmly, as if
nothing had happened.
"I''m not a rock god, but a god of love. Don''tpare me to them. It''ll ruin my reputation," Rain retorted.
He was in a foul mood. His ego was swollen as ever, but his sunshine-like wicked smile had given way
to a grimace of depression and loneliness.
"How is the military project going?" Edward was ustomed to Rain''s narcissism, so he didn''t say
anything to refute him. After all, Rain was far more valuable to him than those big-name stars.
"Don''t worry. Everything''s going well. Nothing will happen without my okay." Rain went straight to the
couch and sat down, leaning on the back of the couch in his usualzy sitting position.
"Pay close attention to this. It''s an important project. You can''t take it lightly," Edward said in a serious
tone, knitting his brows. The project was under construction in Daisy''s army base. He couldn''t bring
shame to her name.

"Got it. You can count on me. Everything will be alright. And, ah, if I''m not mistaken, you were talking
about me just now." He held a finger up while he said this, making it seem like the most important topic
in the world. Rain ran his eyes over Edward and Aaron. He sensed that something was very wrong.
They stopped as soon as he came, so he was sure that they were talking about him just now.
"Look at you. You worry me." Edward refrained from Rain''s sensitive topic.
"Mr. Mu, I have to get back to work if there''s nothing else." Aaron wanted to get out of there more than
anything else in the world. He couldn''t keep his cool if Rain kept poking at the topic. He didn''t want the
number two guy to find out anything.
"Okay. You can go. Get back to work. Pay more attention to Kompass Group. Let me know if anything
changes." Edward tore his gaze from theputer screen and looked at Aaron. In his opinion, Shaun
would soon find out that hispany''s stocks were secretly acquired. Before Shaun could react, he
had to acquire all of their stocks in one fell swoop.
"By the way, Aaron, have you and Anna set a wedding date yet?" Rain raised his eyebrows and smiled
wickedly at Aaron. What Rain said totally flustered the other man. Aaron scrunched himself up, and
tried to fit in as small a space as possible.
