Chapter 13
In the Viber group, Alena was passionately sharing today's gossip with Nataly.
"I'm sorry I never reason with people! Zac is really good.Natie, you didn't see him.Lucy's face is pale!"
Alena chatted while laughing.
"Lucy the phony woman this time really meets a straight man and can't bring justice to herself.Why did Zac cause trouble for Lucy? Something smells fishy.’ Nataly replied.
"To Zac's eye, Lucy was really unpleasant.It's because Lucy loves to gossip behind other's back.Remember? Anika was too soft so Zac always find fault with her.So now, he won't let Lucy reason with him." Alena sent in confusion.
"That's right.Lucy always chose the right words to say so everything would be in her control.But this time, she kicked the wrong door.According to reliable sources, Director Adam was really going to choose a new character." Nataly agreed.
Just as Anika came out of the bath, she saw Nataly's message.
The relationship between the fashion industry and the entertainment industry has always been inextricably linked.
This gave Nataly her own connections.
If it was Nataly who tells the rumor, then there is a big chance that it was true.
Although she was enjoying this, Anika felt for the first time that Zac's temperament was not that bad.
Alena added, "Lucy deserves it.She did business behind everyone's back so that she could steal so many characters.She should be punished! It's a pity that I crashed Nika's car when I came back,
otherwise, I would have been happier.’
Seeing Alena's dejected expression, Anika couldn't help but laugh.
Alena had just gotten her driver's license, but she still didn't dare to touch the car.
Anika could not bear to watch and ordered Alena to drive when she came back.
She drove very "carefully and safely’, basically on the same level as the electric car, but unfortunately, she was bumped by the car behind her.
In the end, the other party compensated, and the car was towed away for repairs.
Anika typed, "It's okay because the car really needs to be inspected and be repaired.Besides, the other party is fully responsible.It has nothing to do with you.If you're fine, you should train more.After you train, you won't have to struggle to commute on the subway every day."
Just as the message was sent, a drop of water dripped down the wet end of her hair and fell onto the screen.
Only then did Anika put down her phone and prepare to blow-dry her hair.
But just as she got up, she stopped.
She suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to buy a hairdryer.
The day she moved, her hairdryer was placed at the bottom of the box and it accidentally broke.
When Zac saw it, he casually said that there was a hairdryer in his room that she could use temporarily, so Anika was not in a hurry to buy one.
However, Lucy and Zac made a commotion and interrupted today's shopping rhythm, making her completely forget about this matter.
Anika had a migraine.
If she did not blow dry after washing her head, she would have a headache the next day.
So, she sighed and accepted her fate, and walked to Zac's room. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
The master bedroom was right next door, and Anika was about to knock on the door when she realized that Zac's door was wide open and not closed at all.
She probed, "Zac, are you there?"
No one was responding.
Her hair was still wet, and she really wasn't feeling well.
Anika knocked on the open door a few times, hesitated for a moment, and then took two steps forward.
The bedroom was empty and no one was there.
‘Could it be that he went out again?’ She thought.
‘That's right.After all, he had just returned from a business trip, so it was normal for him to return to the company to deal with matters on a regular basis”
She breathed a sigh of relief and went to the bathroom to get the hairdryer.
However, as Nika turned around, the bathroom door suddenly opened.
The man inside strode out, but Anika did not notice it and hit the man's sturdy chest.
Rubbing her nose, Anika looked up at Zac and was stunned.
The man's short hair was only half wiped dry, and a hazy mist lingered behind him.
His upper body was naked, untouched.
It was lean and muscular, and his abdominal muscles were sexy and tight.
The sparkling water droplets slowly flowed down the handsome outline, and her thin lips were tightly pursed.
Her eyes began to go down slowly and she saw Zac's attractive mermaid line wrapped with only a loose towel.
The scene in front of her was too exciting, and Anika's brain was completely shut down.
Her slender and haughty wrist was still supporting her tightly-knit arm.
"Anika, what are you doing?"
Zac purposely lowered his voice.
Anika suddenly regained her senses and felt embarrassed.
Her fingers curled up uncontrollably and she subconsciously swallowed her saliva.
However, at this moment, it was clear who was afraid and who was embarrassed.
As a result, she suppressed her emotions and withdrew her gaze from his chest.
She looked at the man calmly and said, "Your figure is not bad.’’Zac was speechless.Half an hour later, the two of them sat face to face in the living room.The atmosphere was deadlocked and silent.An
indescribable embarrassment filled the air.
Looking at the man’s unsightly expression, Anika paused and said, "Why don't you tell me first?"
"Heh, what did you say?"
Zac raised his eyebrows and crossed his arms to look at her, "Ms.Anika I did not do anything bad.I’m innocent but I was completely exposed to you just like that.Anika heard some gritted teeth accusations from his last few words.
She was dumbfounded for a few seconds, but she still couldn't help but defend herself, "Technically speaking, I didn't see everything."
After all, he has a towel wrapped around his waist.
"What? It sounds like you're disappointed that you haven't seen everything.Are you still thinking about it?"
The man smiled meaningfully and leaned back leisurely.
"My bad I didn’t see how you gazed at me""
"I have a bad heart."
Anika choked slightly and heaved a long sigh of relief.
Then, she denied, "I didn't.”
Zac raised his chin and asked with a smile, "You didn't? Since that's the case, why did you suddenly barge into my room?"
"I want to borrow a hairdryer.’ Only then did Anika recall something else.
She frowned slightly and asked, "It's your fault.Why didn't you close the door when you took a shower?"
‘If he just closed his room's door after taking a shower, I definitely wouldn't have caught sight of the scene just now” She thought.
Zac still had a composed look on his face.
He put down his arm and leisurely placed his back on his back as he slowly stroked his fingers.
"l used to live alone.Why did I have to close the door?"
Before she could retaliate, he continued, "And even if I hadn't closed the door, that's no reason for you to barge into the room and see me naked."
Anika was speechless.
Seeing his relentless attitude, Anika could not help but refute, "But before I went in, I called you and knocked on the door a few times.Why didn't you answer?"
"Oh, I didn't hear you." The man's voice was casual.
Seeing Anika's somewhat absurd expression, he casually added, "What's wrong? The master bedroom is soundproof.Is there a problem?"
Anika was annoyed by him but she had to admit it was really her fault.
She sighed and replied, "Nothing.I know I'm wrong so I'm sorry.
"Oh? Just an apology?" Zac mockingly said.
Anika pursed her lower lips and frowned slightly, "I just accidentally glanced at it unconsciously"
"Anika, you're not just looking, right?" Zac said lazily.
His gaze met hers, and his voice dragged on as he continued to correct her.
"Your hand...touched me- ‘Touch him? I just reached his arms so that we would not fall on the floor!’ She thought.
Anika suddenly felt a headache.
She didn't know whether if it was because she was angry or because her hair didn't dry well.
However, she knew that if she continued with her reasons, Zac would still win the argument.
He was innocent, yet he was actually unwittingly attacked by her.
So she could only calm down and ask again, "Then what do you want?"
Zac smiled and slowly stood up.
His voice was gentle, leaving behind a plea, "The sandwich from last time is not bad.Make me breakfast for a week to pay off your debts"
His purpose was accomplished so he left in a flick of his robe.
Anika, who was left in the living room, couldn't help but raise her middle finger at his back.
"Can you imagine his attitude?" Anika said.
Anika was really angry.
After returning to the bedroom, she couldn't help but open her phone and call her friend.
Looking back at Zac's reckless expression, Anika wa s not in the mood to put on her mask.
However, she still curled her eyelashes.
"Luckily, I was wrong when I thought his attitude improved.Zac's attitude just now was exactly the same as when he was in high school."
Nataly didn't know much about Zac in high school, but she knew that Anika had a good temper and everyone felt gentle and quiet with her.
She was very curious about what would make Anika so angry, so she asked doubtfully, "Oh, then what was his high school like?"
Alena’s voice sounded clear when she laughed "I have a picture.
Nika described him exactly as he was back then.
Right, he's a very proud cockfight!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the three of them laughed loudly at the same time.
Thinking back to what she had said to Alena, Anika's mood finally improved a little.
After a brief chat, she hung up the phone with Nataly and Alena.
Then she fell asleep.In her dream, the proud cockfight lowered its head and ran in front of her to act coquettishly.
