Jan could only press his forehead when he received the latest message from London. Now he had to make sure that wherever L went, there wouldn't be any rain.
'This boss of mine must have mistaken me for a god or something,' he thought irritably. This latest order was indeed particular and complicated. Gosh, if L knew what London was doing for her sake, maybe her still heart could feel touched a little, thought Jan.
He was used to London's strange behavior since they were still teenagers. After his father died, Jan entered boarding school, but on every school holiday, he would spend his time with London and Rune in their home.
The relationship between the Van Der Ven family and the Schneider family had lasted for generations. His father, grandfather, great-grandfather ... all have become the confidants for the Schneider family in the real world, managing the business and all their family affairs.
Jan is very fond of London and had enjoyed being his assistant for the past two years. He knew that London had never been in love. So, his behavior lately had convinced Jan that his boss was truly enchanted by L. The man fell hopelessly in love with the girl. Unfortunately, given L's attitude, Jan understood that his boss's love was unrequited.
Too bad.

After the rain stopped and the atmosphere calmed down, L finally locked herself in her room. London could only let her be and went to work. The important thing was that he knew that L was fine and that he could monitor her from afar through the cameras in the apartment. He also could rely on his trusted bodyguards, Dave and Marc, who lived next to his apartment.
He was late for some important meetings. Even though he had told Jan to represent him, London still had to come and listen to the results of the meeting and made some decisions. After that, he had to attend another meeting with a different division. What a busy day.
After the meeting with the investment division ended, he took the time to check the condition in the house while enjoying a cup of tea in his office. His face smiled when he saw L practicing yoga in the living room. He was relieved because it seemed that L had recovered and was able to go back doing her usual activities.
The girl looked very s.e.xy with tight yoga outfits that accentuated her beautiful curves while she practices. The bulging in her stomach had started to be visible, and London could not take his eyes off of from L's stomach.
There was a feeling of emotion in his c.h.e.s.t when he remembered that in the girl's belly, there was a developing fetus who would soon be born as his child.
I hope my baby is a girl, London thought several times. He imagined how beautiful his child would be when she grew up, just like her mother.
"You are smiling," Jan said, coming in after knocking on the door but London was too busy watching the screen to notice his presence. "Is there something funny?"
London raised his face and shook her head. "There is nothing funny."
When Jan was about to tilt his head to see what his boss was watching on his laptop, London hurriedly closed the screen. He was not willing to let Jan see L practicing yoga.
"What's the matter?" grumbled London while glaring at his assistant.
"I've got several reports here that need your attention," Jan replied casually. He placed some doc.u.ments on his boss's desk and immediately left.
"Jan ... hey, wait a minute!" London suddenly remembered something. "I need your help again."
Jan turned and looked at London attentively. "About Miss L?"
"What else would it be?" London shrugged. "I want to know what happened to her from the time she was still a child in the orphanage ... There are several things about her that I'm curious about."
After what happened with the thunder earlier, London began to see L from a different perspective. He felt that behind L's temperamental attitude and her determination to pursue a career to become a famous person, and then look for a super-rich husband, there must be something in her past that made her that way.
"Yes, Sir." Jan nodded and raised his thumb, then came out.
London could only hope that someday L would open up to him and tell him what really happened. His attitude towards the girl was getting better. He no longer felt disturbed even though L treated him indifferently or with an uncaring attitude.
London still brought home flowers every day and treated L well. He hoped that with consistency and patience, L will be able to slowly change her mind.
Unfortunately, L was too stubborn. She was still cold and indifferent toward London.

The days passed peacefully and suddenly it was the day of the May Festival
That weekend was very sunny and the air was not too cold because it was nearing the end of spring. London was fiddling with his camera and L was getting ready to go to the festival.
L readied herself in front of the mirror, and she liked her appearance. Last night she tried a variety of different dresses. After being angry at London who always said that she was beautiful wearing this dress, lovely wearing that dress, and charming in the other dress, she finally decided to ask the opinion of her followers on Splitz.
L wore three different dresses and asked her fans to choose the best dress to wear at the festival. Everyone commented that she looked beautiful and radiant. Of the three dresses she wore, the choice finally fell on a pink dress with a low neckline that showed off her long s.e.xy neck, getting the most votes by her fans. Now she was grooming herself with the pink dress and her face looked very happy.
"My performance at the festival will be broadcasted this afternoon on Splitz and tomorrow I will be announced as the new Virconnect ambassador ..." L said enthusiastically. "Pammy is amazing! She managed to get so many important contracts for me."
London just listened while nodding. He did not feel the need for L to know his part in boosting the girl's career. He was already very happy to see L's happy face as she told him about her career and the new contracts she was getting.
"I am glad to hear that." London just smiled. "What time do you want to be dropped off at the festival?"
"You don't need to take me there, Pammy will pick me up. There is something I need to discuss with her before the show. I don't want to bother you. Pammy will come in fifteen minutes."
"Hm ... okay. But if there's anything, please let me know."
London deliberately did not insist on taking L to the festival. He must meet his younger brother, Rune, who was waiting for him in the penthouse to go together. He must tell Rune what happened and ask for his help to tell their parents.
The longer he delayed telling them the news, the more difficult it would be for him to do it.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
