Chapter 4 His Crush

"What? What?" Rolla was excited as if she had heard some earth-shattering secret. She grabbed Mia and exclaimed, "Didn't they say Mr. Ross wasn't interested in women? He actually has a crush too? Is it our company's upcoming female CEO?"

"Mr Ross and Miss Sterling have known each other since childhood. According to rumours, five years ago, Mr Ross proposed to Miss Sterling. But Miss Sterling refused him for her studies, causing some conflict between them. They haven't been in contact for the past five years, but when Miss Sterling returned to the country recently, Mr Ross personally went to the airport to pick her up. This is enough to show how deeply he feels about this female CEO."

So Brandon ended their agreement early because his crush came back.

But if he already had a crush on someone else, why did he hesitate at all and buy her for one night five years ago?

And even after sleeping with her once, he forced her into signing an agreement.

Every time he touched her, it was so intense that he couldn't control himself.

She was a little hesitant and wanted to ask Mia where she heard these rumours from when suddenly the president's exclusive elevator opened.

Robert, the chairman's special assistant and several department heads walked out first. They bowed respectfully towards the person inside," Mr Ross, Miss Sterling, the CEO's office has arrived. Please come in."

As soon as Robert finished speaking, a man wearing expensive suits walked out of the elevator. His features are deep and dimensional; his appearance is incomparably beautiful, his figure is tall and slender, and his temperament is elegant and cold. He looked like a nobleman, making people unable to look directly at him.

Annie recognized Brandon at first sight. Her heart suddenly tightened. Why did he come to Ross Inc. International?

Just as she was thinking about it, Brandon turned and stretched out his knuckles towards the elevator.

Soon, a delicate and white hand was placed in his palm. He gently squeezed that hand and led the woman out.

When Annie saw the woman's face, she suddenly understood why Brandon would be willing to buy her for one night.

It turned out that she looked a bit similar to his crush, not very alike, but with some similarities between their eyebrows and eyes.

But these few similarities were enough for Annie to understand the truth. She used to think that Brandon liked her a little bit, but she didn't expect him to just treat her as a substitute.

Her heart suddenly hurt inexplicably, and then dense pain swept over her, paling her face. Rolla noticed this and asked concernedly, "Annie, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Annie shook her head lightly. Rolla wanted to say something more when Robert led them over quickly. Annie quickly lowered her gaze, daring not to look at them. Her hands on the keyboard couldn't stop trembling. Robert introduced everyone one by one, "These are all CEO assistants. Miss Sterling can find them if there is anything needed."

Miss Sterling nodded and looked at everyone softly, "Good morning, everyone. I am your new CEO. My name is Annika Sterling."

Annika...

As soon as Annie heard this name, her face became even paler. In her mind, the scene of Brandon holding onto her while making love flashed repeatedly. At that time, the passionate Brandon always called out "Annie" in her ear. Now she realized that he wasn't calling for Annie, but Annika...
