Unexpected Love: One Night With Mr CEO

"I know, Auntie. Leave it alone."

"What do you mean?"

"If my mother wants this marriage to go on, then so be it."

"With Byanca like that, are you sure you want to marry her?" Serly asked, choosing to obey and trying to understand Devan\'s wishes.

"Who said I was going to marry Byanca, Aunt?"

"What do you mean?" asked Mrs. Seira, her brows furrowed in confusion, unable to properly understand what her niece meant.

"I know what I\'m going to do, Auntie. Don\'t worry about me," replied Devan trying to calm the middle-aged woman.

"Now all you need to do is act, as usual, pretend you don\'t know anything," he added.

"B-but..."

"Don\'t worry about me, Auntie. This plan of mine just depends on how Byanca behaves. If she doesn\'t want to cancel this marriage, then I will do it," said Devan immediately cutting Mrs. Serly\'s words.

"Eh? From the way you talk, it seems that Byanca knows that you already know all about her behavior behind your back."

"She\'s a fool if she doesn\'t understand all that I said to her," Devan replied.

"What are you saying?"

"I think Auntie heard it," said Devan.

"Oh that, I thought that you had a one-on-one conversation with Byanca," said Serly who misunderstood.

"So what now? Shall we just keep quiet until the day of the wedding reception arrives?" she asked again to make sure.

"Yes, Auntie. I\'ve thought and considered everything," Devan replied. Yes, he had previously experienced confusion, but seeing his mother\'s attitude and the way Byanca responded to his threats, he just needed to be patient.

"Hmm, alright. If you need something tell me, I\'m ready to help you anytime, dear," said Mrs. Seira again.

"Thanks for trusting me, Auntie," Devan replied.

"I should have done this, you are my niece, and as an aunt, I couldn\'t just turn a blind eye If I know something like this had happened to you, dear," said Mrs. Serly.

"It seems Mrs. Serly cares more about her niece than her son," Leo said and that made the two figures sitting on the sofa turn their heads towards him.

"Don\'t think about him, Devan," said Mrs. Serly then slowly rose from her position.

Hearing this, Devan just smiled.

"Then, Don\'t forget to finish the juice," said Mrs. Serly and then started to move, approaching the door wanting to get out of the room, ignoring her son who had been wearing a sullen face.

Now only Devan and Leo were in the room.

"Looks like I missed something important," Leo said turning to Devan.

Hearing his cousin\'s voice, one of Devan\'s eyebrows rose.

"What did you say in front of the big family just now?" Leo asked.

Devan just shrugged in response, looking reluctant to explain, and that made Leo take a shaky breath.

"Looks like you didn\'t mean to tell me. Then I won\'t go into that again," Leo muttered again with another shaky breath. The man then took back his cellphone which he had previously placed on the nightstand.

"Ah yes, I almost forgot, Devan..."

"Hmm?"

"You\'ve met with Anna, right? Does that mean you also met Naila?" Leo asked changing the subject.

"Naila?" Devan\'s brow furrowed.

"Yes Naila, Dave\'s Babysitter," replied Leo looking enthusiastic, for the past few days since he was discharged from the hospital, he never communicated with the girl again. Not without reason, because Naila\'s contacts are always out of reach every time he calls her.

"Oh Naila, she has resigned," said Devan.

"Ha? What do you mean?"

"Are you deaf? I don\'t like repeating my sentence, Leo."

"How can Naila resign? Since when? But now she\'s still with Anna right?" Leo asked very curiously.

"No," Devan replied curtly.

"What do you mean, Devan? Stop talking half-sentence," Leo protested, rubbing his face roughly.

"I don\'t know, Leo. Why didn\'t you call her and ask her why she left?" replied Devan.

"The number has never been active," Leo sighed.

"She resigned the day you were admitted to the hospital, she didn\'t say her reason," Devan said.

"You probably didn\'t ask so she didn\'t say it," Leo muttered, noticing his cousin\'s indifferent nature.

"How can I ask the reason, she resigned via text message, and when I called her again to ask where Anna was at that time, her contact was no longer active," Devan explained at length in one breath.

"And at this time, she is no longer with Anna, I also don\'t know where she is now, so stop asking me about Naila," he added.

Hearing that, Leo let out a shaky breath.

"Ah yes, don\'t you know that Naila was also in the hospital at that time? As far as I know, she\'s the one who signed your operating agreement," said Devan.

"Eh? Really?"

"Not only that, but she\'s also the one who paid off all your operating costs," said Devan remembering the time he visited the hospital after seeing a text message from Naila.

"Eh?" Leo was stunned to hear Devan\'s words.

"Where did she get that kind of money?" he muttered confused. If she only relies on her salary as a babysitter, Naila may not be able to pay off all operating costs and other administrative costs.

Seeing Leo\'s response, Devan sighed harshly. "Looks like you don\'t know much about your lover," he said and laughed crisply.

"Shut up," Leo said, it was true what his cousin said, so far Naila rarely talked about herself and her family. Everything he knew was only about the girl\'s experience as a babysitter.

It\'s not that he doesn\'t want to get to know Naila more, it\'s just that he feels that maybe the girl has her reasons for not saying anything about her family. And Leo appreciates that.

But unlike now, Naila who suddenly disappeared made him regret his actions. Why had he held back then and didn\'t just ask? Now he doesn\'t know where to look for Naila\'s whereabouts.

"I\'ll ask Anna where Naila is, maybe she knows something, don\'t worry," said Devan, who couldn\'t stand seeing his cousin\'s worried face.

"Really? Okay, then just ask now," Leo replied.
