I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Chapter 214 - Leon’s Sly Wit

"May I come in, Anne?" Edward, who had just finished his meeting with Leon, was currently standing in front of Anne's room, smiling broadly, hugging his laptop.

"Come in, I just finished work," said Anne softly.

With a wide smile, Edward entered Anne's room. He was amazed by the interior in Anne's room. "Mr. Leon is really amazing. According to his promise to Professor Gilbert, he treats us very well, Anne," he said quietly.

"Us? What do you mean?"

"My room, Anne, my room is also very well designed. I also have my own room just like you, it's just that my room doesn't have wallpaper like this. But still my room is very pleasant, because there are so many pictures that help me relax with work. Even Mr. Leon also put a phonograph records that I can listen to when I'm tired of working, Anne. Isn't that a wonderful facility?" Edward replied excitedly. He told Anne about his extraordinary room.

"So it's not just my room that's decorated, apparently," Anne muttered quietly without realizing it.

Bam!

"Of course not, I'm the same as you Anne. So I also get the same facilities as you," Edward said quickly, as soon as he hit Anne's desk. Edward knew that Anne had been daydreaming for a moment.

"Yeah, I know, that's not what I mean. Several seniors had teased me in front of my office. They said that I…. Hmm, well, I don't need to tell you anymore. You must have understood what I mean. What is clear is there will be people who will talk about us, who are only new employees but have received special facilities like this. Actually, earlier I wanted to ask Mr. Leon to change rooms, but after you said that your room was also decorated like this, so I will cancel my intention to ask for a change of room," said Anne quickly while tidying up her laptop and getting ready to take a break because lunch time had almost arrived.

Edward laughed at Anne's words. He was amused by what Anne had just said.

"Don't listen to other people's opinion, Anne. They are just people who are jealous of what you have now. We better focus on our work so as not to disappoint Professor Gilbert and the campus. I'm sure Professor Gilbert has high hopes for us. Because if we managed to bring the good name of the campus in this company, I'm sure there will be many other companies that choose our college graduate students to work in their companies. In other words, we have made it easier for our friends to get jobs, Anne," Edward half whispered.

Anne took a deep breath when she heard Edward's words about campus. "Yes, you're right. It's just that this burden is too heavy for me. Honestly, I'm afraid that I will disappoint the campus and Professor Gilbert, who has high expectations of us, because as you know, Edward, being a manager in this position is not an easy job, especially since we are still in college. This position is like two sharp blades ready to stab us. If we succeed, then we will help the campus and our friends, but if we fail, we will give a bad image to our campus. That's why from the start I rejected the position, but Professor Gilbert convinced me time and time again that I can hold this position, even though I honestly feel like I can't."

Edward touched Anne's shoulder with a big smile, he then said, "Don't think too far like that, Anne, rest assured you are capable of holding this position well. Because Professor Gilbert could not appoint just anyone if he felt that person was incompetent, so you must be sure that you are capable. Well, because it is almost lunch time now, we better go to the cafeteria, I'm very hungry, Anne. This morning I didn't have breakfast because I was too excited to go to the office," he said slowly, trying to change the subject.

"Don't make it a habit, Edward, if you get an ulcer it will be something that really torments you," answered Anne quickly with a smile. But the smile on Anne's face immediately disappeared when she suddenly remembered Aaron who had chronic ulcer disease.

"I'm not a man who doesn't get sick easily because of trivial things, Anne. Besides, I'm very healthy and keen in sports, so I can't possibly get sick like that," Edward said quickly, boasting about his healthy lifestyle to Anne. He didn't realize if at this time Anne's mind was drifting away.

After saying that, Edward then walked from Anne's desk to the door, but his steps stopped when he realized Anne was still sitting in her chair and did not move to follow him.

"Anne, come on!!!"

"Ah, yes, Edward, wait a minute," said Anne, stuttering, because she had just woken up from her daydream after hearing Edward's shout.

Edward smiled seeing Anne who was in such a hurry. It turned out that the girl who had caught his attention the first time he saw her on campus had a very pleasant side. After finished tidying up her desk, Anne then followed Edward who was already standing in front of her room smiling.

"Are you done?"

"Yes," answered Anne curtly.

"Before going to the cafeteria, let's stop by my office first. I have to put my laptop on the table. I can't have lunch with a laptop like this, I'll be mistaken for someone who is arrogant for carrying a laptop in the cafeteria," Edward said slowly as he walked out of Anne's room towards the cafeteria. His office was not far from the elevator.

"Yeah, but I don't want to wait too long. I'm hungry, Edward." Anne answered quickly.

"Yes, I know," Edward said briefly with a wide smile on his face. He then quickened his steps towards his office which was not far from where he and Anne were now.

As soon as Edward entered his room, Anne seemed to admire Edward's office which turned out to also have a very interesting interior design like her room. It was just that because Edward was a music director, there were lots of classical music equipment in Edward's office which was very pleasant.

"Isn't it great?" Edward asked quickly.

"Yeah, your room was nice too, Edward," answered Anne honestly.

"That's why I told you not to listen to other people's words, Anne, I'm sure they said that because they were jealous of you who got special facilities. They just sat together at a table like that, while we were given a special room by Mr. Leon. So far you understand right?" Edward asked again.

"I do."

Hearing Anne's answer made Edward smile. He then took Anne's hand and led her to walk straight to the elevator that had stopped on the tenth floor where they were standing currently.

From his office, Leon smiled hearing what Edward said to Anne. Apparently, without Edward and Anne knowing, Leon had installed a bug in their respective rooms. So now Leon could hear everything that was said by Anne or Edward.

"It turned out that my decision was right to give Edward a private office too, because with that, Marianne would not be able to refuse the room that is already beautiful like that. And it seems that now I have to teach a lesson to the employees who previously gossiped about my Marianne," Leon hissed softly. His eyes were staring intently at the closed door of his room. He didn't want Marianne to be teased by the four employees. "I will not allow anyone to hurt my Marianne, my Mrs. Ganke."
