Chapter 48 Pull out the Grass?
The next day, again, as Anna waited for Charlie to come down, Simon was there.
Having an idea, she brewed three cups of coffee and brought them to the living room.
In the living room.
Giorgio and Simon were attentively discussing business matters, emanating an air of maturity and dominance in the business world.
The difference between them was that one was a peace-loving prince, while the other was a ruthless and cold emperor, both commanding respect.
Anna was afraid to disturb them, so she walked over cautiously and placed the coffee on their right hand side.
However, Simon still noticed her and raised his gentle gaze, softly saying, "Thank you."
Giorgio was more focused, but upon hearing the voice, he looked up.
Seeing the subtle exchange between the two, a hint of displeasure rose from the depths of his heart, and he said to Anna in a cold and heartless tone, "Who let you in during work hours?"
Cold and merciless.
Feeling embarrassed, Anna quickly placed the coffee next to him, saying, "Sorry, I just wanted to ask if Charlie is not here today, what should I do?"
What should she do? She could do anything, just don't appear in front of Simon.
Giorgio's gaze shifted, and after a moment, he let out a smile: "Go pull out the grass on the rooftop lawn, Charlie will want to swim when he returns."
What? Pull out the grass?
Did he think she was a gardener!
Unfortunately, upon seeing the man's cold and handsome face, Anna became timid and didn't dare to oppose him. She nodded obediently and retreated.
Simon's gaze deepened, but he smiled without saying a word, looking down and continuing to handle business matters. This collaboration was crucial for the development of Crownhaven and Vista heights, both. and was closely tied to the economic lifeline of the south. It could not be taken lightly.
These two workaholics talked until the afternoon, even forgetting to eat lunch.
It wasn't until two o'clock that they finished their work.
"We'll double check later to make sure everything is in order, and then we can finalize it." Simon said.
Giorgio nodded lightly.
The two of them walked out of the meeting room side by side, their footsteps abruptly stopped.
They saw Anna leaning on the sofa, sleeping peacefully with a serene expression and long eyelashes. She looked naturally adorable, but...because she was feeling tired, her head kept tilting, making her look uncomfortable.
This woman, there's a bed at home!
Giorgio subconsciously wanted to go over and carry her.
However, Simon was quick and walked over, using his broad palm to gently hold Anna's head and carefully pull over a pillow, resting her head on it. His movements were gentle and considerate.
Giorgio narrowed his eyes, the hand tucked in his pants pocket gradually tightening.
The atmosphere became naturally colder.
Feeling the chill, Anna shivered and woke up, seeing Simon and Giorgio. She immediately stood up.
"You're done with your work, huh, you guys?"
"I cooked the food and left it in the kitchen. You can eat it when you bring it out."
Simon's heart ached as he said, "Silly, just take care of yourself, we two big men don't need you to take care of us."
His gentle voice was so touching.
From childhood to adulthood, her adoptive mother made her cater to her older brother, and her adoptive father made her take care of the plants and crops at home, but no one had ever taken care of her.
In the midst of the chaos and complexity of her life, Anna found herself inexplicably drawn to Simon. His easy charm, genuine kindness, and infectious laughter had captured her attention in ways she couldn't quite explain. As they spent more time together, sharing conversations filled with both lighthearted banter and deep connection, Anna felt her heart fluttering with a newfound excitement. She found herself eagerly awaiting their next encounter, her thoughts often drifting towards him, a telltale sign that a crush had taken root within her.
In Simon, Anna discovered a ray of light amidst the shadows, and she couldn't help but wonder if their connection held the potential for something more.
Anna's heart rippled, grateful to the king-like Simon, "Hmm, thank you."
The way they interacted, word by word, was just like a couple, for some inexplicable reason, Giorgio felt extremely annoyed:
"Little Tony, you mentioned earlier that there was something Miss Stefanelli needed to do. Take her there. Mr. Dalio and I will need some time to deal with matters after dinner."
Little Tony was completely confused. When did he mention anything? He had no clue.
Just as he was about to ask, he noticed Mr. Vittorio's stern gaze and instantly understood. He said, "Yes, yes, there is something. Miss Stefanelli, please come with me."
"Oh, okay," Anna yawned and followed him.
The villa was very large, with thousands of square meters inside and out. There was a small bridge and flowing water in the backyard, with a garden filled with plants and flowers, everything one could imagine.
The sunlight today was particularly beautiful, shining upon everything. The water sparkled, and the flowers and plants thrived, creating a picturesque scene.
As Anna followed Little Tony from the front yard to the backyard, they reached a secluded corner. She was very curious, "Little Tony, what do you need me to do?"
Faced with this question, Little Tony was at a loss. What was he supposed to do? Wasn't it just an excuse the Boss made up to keep her occupied?
What should he say now?
While he was still thinking, suddenly...
