Chapter 346 How Can I Make Amends?
Giuseppe's face changed slightly.
Giorgio is known to be a workaholic, but he rarely interferes with his work. However, last night he suddenly had so many things to deal with.
He had to wonder if it was Giorgio all along.
He said, "While work is important, it is also a boyfriend's duty to spend two hours with his girlfriend. Giorgio, rest assured, I will place the documents on your desk tomorrow morning."
He was preparing to take Anna away.
Giorgio watched Anna's obedient and well-behaved appearance, his face as cold and icy as ever.
He didn't know what was wrong with himself, he just got very angry when he saw her with Giuseppe.
"Give it to me in three hours. I have other things to take care of."
Three hours.
This means that he not only didn't have time to watch a movie but also had to rush to finish his work!
Giuseppe paused in his steps, looking up at Giorgio's commanding posture, not angry but rather smiling.
Doesn't this mean that Giorgio cares more about Anna the more he acts like this?
He turned his gaze, his gentle hand resting on Anna's head. "Sorry, since Giorgio is in such a hurry, I'll make it up to you another day."
"It's okay." Anna didn't mind not watching the movie; she just looked angrily at Giorgio.
"Giorgio, Giuseppe has been working for many hours since last night. Can't he take a break to watch a movie? Besides, as the CEO, it doesn't seem fair for you to make him work overtime while you're here with Katherine, right?
“Furthermore, as an elder, you should wish for your nephew to have a good relationship and get married. Interrupting even for a movie, is really quite unreasonable."
Implying that he disrupted their date?
Giorgio raised his eyebrows, his deep black eyes gazing at the woman who resembled a hedgehog.
"Are you still living in a romance fantasy?
“Have you ever thought about the thousands of people waiting for project approvals, supporting their families, while you wanted him to rest and watch a movie?
“If you think Guiseppe is working too hard, then fine, let’s just change the project lead. It won't delay your lovey-dovey talk.”
Change the person in charge!
Giuseppe's face tightened slightly: "Giorgio, Anna didn't mean that, she was just concerned about me."
He then turned to Anna and said, "Sweetheart, there are indeed many responsibilities that come with this position. Giorgio works much longer hours than I do. I'm fine. I'll have the secretary take you back in a while, and I'll head to the office to handle things."
By the way, your hand is injured, so you don't need to cook for me temporarily. Take good care of yourself."
After saying that, he left.
Anna stood frozen in place.
She felt it was very unfair, so she couldn't help it, and almost caused him to lose his project lead position at work.
Damn Giorgio, he's just too despicable!
She glared at him fiercely, then turned around to leave.
"It seems like you're quite displeased," Giorgio's deep and chilly voice echoed.
Anna paused, meeting his deep, profound black eyes like the vast ocean.
"What did you say previously? I finally understand how difficult it is for you adults, it was me being narrow-minded.
“However, a busy person like Giorgio, talking to me here, seems like a waste of time, doesn't it? Thinking that Giorgio can make millions of dollars in just a minute, I feel ashamed and guilty."
She knew his time was precious!
Which woman made him waste so much time?
He stared at her coldly and asked, "So, what do you plan to use as compensation?"
Anna was speechless. Could he not hear her sarcasm and mockery? How could he even say something like offering compensation?
She took a step back and said, "Don't even think about blackmailing me, I don't have any money."
Giorgio chuckled at her in annoyance.
Did he look like a person in need of money?
But as he thought about it, he said in a sarcastic tone, "Holding Giuseppe's gold card and claiming to have no money, you sure can lie without blushing."
How did he know?
Is he suggesting to steal money from Giuseppe!?
She said impatiently, "That was Giuseppe who bought Katherine a congratulatory gift, not my money. I didn't spend it, so I can't decide. You can't take it away!"
Anna struck a tsundere pose, with her chin slightly lifted.
Upon hearing the words, the coldness in Giorgio's eyes dissipated, replaced by a gentle softness.
He said, "I see. Then I'll have you spend the next few days putting Charlie to bed. He has been mentally unstable recently."
He left his words hanging, not giving her a chance to refuse and walked away.
Anna stood frozen in place. Charlie, acting strangely? What's going on?
‘I wonder if he will deceive me again.’
Anna couldn't shake off her worries. After the evening banquet ended, she still took Penny to Giorgio's residence.
"Charlie, is your stomach not feeling well?"
To test the authenticity, she intentionally asked questions in a roundabout way.
Charlie's eyes rolled as his dad arranged for him to pretend to be sick again.
Charlie fell silent. What should he do about a father who cursed him for being sick every day? Could he undergo DNA testing?
However, he cannot turn a blind eye to his father's performance.
He nodded:
"Not only was my stomach upset, but I also couldn't eat well, sleep well, and keep having nightmares.
“Auntie, Am I going to die?"
"Hey, what nonsense are you talking about? You're so cute and healthy, you won't die until you're old." Anna felt guilty because she suspected Charlie.
"Did you see a doctor for your illness?"
"I saw the doctor, and he said I have a mental disorder and need to rely on medication for treatment."
"Heart medicine? Do you have any mental health issues? Aren't you quite healthy?"
Charlie said, "I was unhappy watching you with Giuseppe, thinking about calling you sister-in-law in the future, calling Little Doughnut niece, it made me even sadder."
He talked for a long time, all because of her and Giuseppe! Still thinking about setting her up with his dad!
How can he get rid of his thoughts in the end?
Anna had a headache and felt upset.
Just then, Penny started to make a fuss:
"Huh? Charlie, why did you call me your niece?"
"Because Anna and Giuseppe got married, according to the generation, you are my niece."
"No, I don't want to be Charlie's niece."
Anna's little face scrunched up, "Can you two stop pretending, please?"
"Anna, I really wanted to cry."
"Anna, Little Doughnut has become my niece. How can I still marry her?"
"Even if she wasn't your niece, you still couldn't marry her!"
“Why?”
"Because she is your sister!" Anna blurted out in a moment of anger.
Charlie fell silent instantly, furrowing his brow. "What sister?"
Returning from the study to the room, Giorgio happened to overhear the conversation, casting a skeptical gaze upon Anna.
The two little ones 'hit it off', and Penny is the only girl that Charlie cares about. If they were to be together when they grow up, he doesn't plan to interfere.
But with Anna's confident and resistant tone, it's as if Penny is Charlie's real sister.
Facing the skeptical gazes of a tall person and a short person, Anna's heart raced rapidly.
How did she just blurt it out!?
With the intelligence of Charlie and Giorgio, flimsy excuses would definitely arouse suspicion.
How is she going to explain?
