Seeing Leo's growing laughter, Devan put the newspaper in his hand roughly onto the table and left without saying a word.

"Hey, where are you going my cousin?" Leo shouted getting up from his position, his steps stopped when he saw the man had entered his black Ferrari.

"I know, you were waiting for that girl Devan," Leo muttered under his breath and then went back into the cafe.

Devan Atmadja, a leader of the company D.a Group, since the past five years, a man rarely appears in public, making many people slowly forget his existence. Only his name and status still fill some of the top searches on the internet, all because of his achievements that have successfully boosted D.a Group's position to the second largest company in Asia.

Compared to five years before, now Devan preferred to be alone and do everything himself, his once cold demeanor was now colder. Even with Mom and Dad.

"Clarissa, what's my schedule for today?" asked Devan shortly after the secretary picked up the phone from him.

"...."

"Empty it and move on to another day."

"...."

"Just email it."

"...."

"Ah yes, the file on my desk just leave it alone. Don't touch anything there," said Devan then ended the call.

And after that, he then again made a call to another number.

"How? Has there been any progress?"

"...."

Hearing the answer from the other side of the phone, Devan sighed harshly.

"I want some of you guys to do some surveillance somewhere."

"...."

"I'll send the address later, they just need to be on guard at that place, and let me know as soon as possible if they find the same woman as the photo I gave you," said Devan.

"...."

"Do it today," Devan ordered and then ended the call again.

For some reason, after hearing Leo say that Anna was married, it felt like he couldn't accept it, let alone believe it.

Especially when he heard that the woman he had been looking for had a child.

Slammed the steering wheel and then turned around, the Ferrari he was driving accelerated.

No one knows what the man had in mind, he stop his car at a bar, whereas it was still daytime.

***

Currently, Anna and Nicho are sitting in the living room, relaxing while talking. As for Dave, the child had fallen asleep on Anna's lap.

"Give him to me, let me carry him to the room," said Nicho when he saw Dave was asleep on the sofa with his head on the woman's thigh.

Anna didn't respond, but Nicho still moved closer to her and carried Dave back to his room.

"Thank you," said Anna as soon as Nicho wanted to go up the stairs that were directly behind her.

Until now, Anna felt very bad for the man. It's been five years, Nicho who is a stranger and she didn't know at all before has always helped her until now, was near her and even met all her needs.

For one reason only, she reminded the man of his wife who died in a car accident two years before his meeting with Anna.

Yes, Nicho is a widower about 32 years old, he is also a leader in a company that is corn's age. Not too big, but more than enough to meet all his needs. He is also an only child, while his parents? His father and mother are divorced, until now he does not know where his parents are.

Five years ago, using the money Devan gave her, Anna managed to pay off all her debts.

Even though Anna had refused to take the hundred million, but only because of what happened that night, she had to do it.

Yes, on the pretext that one day she will return it if she gets a new job. Because with feelings and circumstances that are very chaotic, it is very difficult for her to get a job.

But the unexpected happened and made her life even messier when she just got a new job, the harsh reality greeted her again, Anna was pregnant.

Until a few months later, Anna was fired because her boss found out that she was pregnant. After all, it had violated the rules where she worked.

Since then, Anna has had more and more difficulty finding work because of her growing belly, however, she continues to do so for the sake of her survival after giving birth.

Until one day, due to exhaustion, she fainted in the middle of the road and after regaining consciousness, Anna found herself in a hospital room with her hand infused.

At that time, Nicho was already there. Yes, it was the man who saved Anna and took her to the hospital.

After knowing that Anna lived alone without any relatives, with her condition being heavily pregnant, he offered the girl to stay at his house.

Anna had refused, but Nicho still insisted. Until Anna had no other choice, maybe Nicho was one of the good people God sent for her.

She knew clearly who the father of the child she was carrying was. Only, Anna did not tell the man because with her very shabby and poor condition, who would want her?

It has nothing to be proud of. While the father of her child has everything, wealth, good looks, and everything that everyone in this world dreams of.

If Anna told him, she would only embarrass herself or might even be accused of using her pregnancy to live a good life.

Anna didn't want that to happen and chose to endure it herself.

All because of the huge difference she had with that man.

"What are you thinking?" A voice suddenly interrupted Anna's thoughts.

The girl turned and found Nico already behind her.

"Thank you, Nicho."

"No need to thank me, I just took Dave to his room."

"I will say thank you, I don't know how I can repay all your kindness to me," said Anna again turning her gaze towards the TV that was on.

"You want to repay my kindness?" Nicho also landed his body next to Anna.

"But with my current situation, I don't even have a penny, nor do I have anything of value," Anna replied.

"How about just marry me?"

Suddenly Anna's body stiffened, she had lived with the man for a long time, even Nicho also took care of everything when she had to undergo a cesarean section, and even after the birth of her son the man always helped her, met her needs and even obeyed everything her wish. Even so, she didn't have any feelings for the man.

"A-are you serious?" stammered Anna.

Seeing Anna's response, Nicho laughed loudly. "Don't worry, I'm just joking," said the man then rubbed Anna's hair.

A sigh of relief escaped Anna's lips, and it made Nicho laugh at her even more.

"No need to feel shy, also no need to thank me, I did all this sincerely. Don't even think about repaying it, Anna," said Nicho right after his laughter subsided.

"Dave's dad, when are you going to tell me? I might be able to help you look for him," he added.

"He's dead, there's no need to look for him anymore," Anna replied curtly, sounding very clear that she was very reluctant to discuss it.

That night was a mistake, but it had a huge impact on her life.
