Chapter 216 - The First Double Date

Since Edward and Anne were still interns, they had shorter working hours than the other employees. By now, they were getting ready to go home even though the other employees were still busy with their work.

"Want to come home with me, Anne?" Edward asked quietly as he stood in front of Anne\'s room, offering a lift.

"I\'m fine with the bus, Edward, besides I have promised Linda to watch a movie together after work." Anne politely refused Edward\'s offer.

Edward\'s smiling face immediately changed. He looked very disappointed to hear Anne\'s answer.

"Okay, I\'m done. Let\'s go home. It turns out that I\'m tired for six hours staring at the laptop screen," said Anne excitedly while carrying her favorite leopard backpack on her shoulder.

"You have to get used to it, Anne. In the future we will be very busy. Moreover, this film project has already started, so I suggest you take lots of vitamins so that your immune system is maintained," Edward said softly with a forced smile as he stepped into the elevator with Anne.

"I know, you don\'t have to worry." Anne replied briefly to Edward\'s words. Her beautiful smile was growing on a face that was a little pale because she didn\'t wear any make-up today.

Even though he had only worked for one day with Anne, Edward already felt very comfortable being close to a girl who had never responded to him on campus. Edward just realized that Anne had a very pleasant nature and was very different from other girls he knew. When Anne spoke, she looked very sincere and not excessive. She also didn\'t show a weak and easily bullied nature like most girls who tried to get his attention. Anne had really stolen a little gap in Edward\'s empty heart, because he had once really liked a girl.

"Are you sure you don\'t want me to drive you home?" Edward asked Anne again when they were out of the elevator and walking towards the exit of the office.

"Yeah, I\'ll just take the bus, Edward. But thanks for the offer, I really appreciate it," answered Anne quickly with a smile.

"But it\'s very cold outside and the weather is still too extreme to get on the bus. Are you sure you\'ll be waiting for the bus in this weather, Anne?" Edward was still trying to convince Anne to come with him.

With an enthusiastic nod, Anne responded to Edward\'s words. "I\'m used to it, Edward, you can take it easy. You go on home first. I still want to ask Linda where she is now."

"But, Anne, I..."

"Yes, Linda, okay I\'ll be right there. You and Paul just order the tickets, be careful, okay?"

Edward stopped his speech because Anne suddenly spoke to Linda on the phone. All he could do now was smile wryly to hold back the disappointment of being rejected by Anne so many times. And this was the first time an Edward Cole was rejected by a girl. The reason was that all this time the girls were actually competing to approach and seek Edward\'s attention in various ways.

Because he was unable to seduce Anne in various ways, Edward finally gave up. He didn\'t want to look too eager to approach Anne, because he didn\'t want to make Anne hate him.

"I\'m going home first. Remember, Anne, you can call anytime if you want to be picked up and don\'t hesitate. I will definitely come back to the office to pick you up," Edward said slowly as he walked towards his car which was parked not far from the office door.

"Yeah, you take it easy. Be careful on your way, Edward, the road is slippery because of the snow. Don\'t speed, the important thing is that you get home safely," replied Anne softly while waving her hand at Edward who had already entered his favorite car.

"I know, Anne, are you sure you\'re going home alone? Don\'t you want to change your mind about..."

"Come on, stop talking. Now go home, and be careful on the road, Edward," said Anne, quickly cutting off Edward\'s words who were still trying to offered to take her home.

Full of disappointment, Edward finally left Anne who was still standing in front of the Ganke Inc. Production office. He really couldn\'t melt Anne, whereas other girls would not think twice about getting into his expensive car, especially in this cold weather.

Seeing Edward left, Anne smiled broadly. She then reached for her cell phone to check the arrival schedule for the bus that passed in front of the office. Anne chose to remain standing in front of the office before the bus actually came. She did not want to be jostled at the bus stop which was not far from Leon\'s Ganke Inc. Production office.

Unbeknownst to Anne in the car, Jack watched her jealously without blinking. He didn\'t like Anne laughing at other men. Jack deliberately didn\'t get out of the car because he wanted to make sure that whether she would go with Edward or not, because if Anne got into Edward\'s car, he would chase after them and teach Edward a lesson because he dared to take Anne without his consent. But apparently he could not do such a thing because Anne refused Edward\'s offer. Because he felt sorry for Anne who was standing outside in the cold weather, Jack then started the car and approached Anne.

"Enter the car!!!"

"Jack..."

"I don\'t like repeating my words twice, Anne!!" Jack cut Anne\'s words with a rising tone.

Because she didn\'t want to cause trouble with Jack, Anne finally got into Jack\'s car. Without a word, Anne put her seat belt on. After making sure that Anne had actually put on her seatbelt, Jack then stepped on the gas pedal, leaving Leon\'s office which he hated so much. Jack was still a little annoyed at Anne for daring to laugh with another man behind him. As a result, there was no conversation between Jack and Anne along the way.

"I want to go to the mall with Linda and Paul today, Jack. I\'ve made an appointment with them." Anne finally opened her mouth and spoke quickly when she realized that the path Jack was taking was not the road to the mall.

"With Linda and Paul?"

"Yes, I promised to watch a movie with them. Now Linda and Paul have also arrived at the mall. They have even bought the tickets, so there\'s no way I can\'t come, Jack," answered Anne without a break with enthusiasm.

"No, you\'re coming home with me. Being outside in this weather will make you sick, so we\'d better go home," said Jack quickly.

"Y-you come with me too, we\'ll have a double date, Jack. I-I haven\'t been to the mall and watched a movie in a long time, it would be really nice to be able to do that now," Anne shrieked loudly in a tone that sounded pitiful as she spoke. She also gave Jack a hopeful look.

With his heart pounding, Jack said, "Double date?"

"Huum, but that\'s if you want to. If you don\'t want to, then let\'s just go home. I can sleep in the room and listen to the story of Linda and Paul who are dating again and again," replied Anne in a tone that was deliberately sounded full of despair while supporting her chin with both hands.

"Wh-who said I don\'t want to? Give me the address, we\'ll go straight there," said Jack loudly while increasing his car speed against other cars in front of him.

Jack, who has never had a double date before, looked very excited this time. So far he had only enjoyed luxurious dinners with girls who ended up in hotel room beds without actually going on real dates like other young people. Because of that, he couldn\'t wait to get to the mall where Linda and Paul were.

"Oops, I think I\'ve said this wrong." Anne spoke to herself, regretting that she had mentioned dating to Jack.
