Chapter 92 - Aaron Purpose
"Ah, why is the air conditioner in this shop not working? Why is it so hot in the shop?" said Anne loudly, fanning her face with her hands.
"What's hot? it's cold, Anne. You're weird," Linda said in confusion.
"Really? Oh that means I'm the one with the problem. Alright then, I'm going to the shop next door to buy a milkshake. Do you want one, Linda?" said Anne again to change the subject.
"Strawberry milkshake with whip cream, of course," said Linda quickly.
Anne nodded her head in response to Linda's words. She then went out to the beverage shop next to her flower shop. Actually, Anne was not that thirsty. It was just that she needed to freshen up after hearing Jack's last words. Even though Jack's words earlier were the words she had said to the coffee cup seller who had been her regular supplier for a year and a half, somehow when Jack said that to her, she felt embarrassed.
"No wonder back then Jack was angry with me when I said that to Mark," said Anne softly. Back then, after returning from Mark's workplace along the way, Jack got angry at her for saying that to Mark. At that time, Anne felt that there was nothing wrong with just smiling when Jack was angry, but now she knew the reason why Jack was angry at that time. It turned out that what she had said could make people who heard it uncomfortable, just like what Anne experienced today.
"Aghhhh Anne, you're so stupid, why did you have to talk like that before?!!" Anne squealed in irritation as she covered her face with her palms.
Meanwhile on the plane carrying a group of UAL students going to Ireland, Leon looked very uncomfortable. Realizing that Anne was not with him, immediately made his mood a mess. Even though Steffi had been clinging to him, Leon was not very excited. In his mind, he still clearly remembered Anne's face that he saw earlier on campus. Anne's dimple that he just saw made him couldn't stop thinking about his ex-wife.
"You're so beautiful in denim like that, Marianne," Leon said to himself.

Northampton
Since the morning, Aaron and Daniel and the core marketing team of the Connery Corporation were presenting in front of Mr. Bob and several of the board of directors, who were indeed requested by Mr. Bob to attend the meeting this morning. While Aaron was speaking in front of the high-ranking producer companies, they all listened very seriously to Aaron's explanation. In fact, from the start they were already interested in working with the Connery Corporation, but they hadn't gotten the right time and schedule to visit London where the Connery Corporation was located. And this time, the CEO of Connery Corporation had personally come to Northampton to introduce his company, therefore they listened very seriously to the words that came out of Aaron's lips.
Clap
Clap
Clap
The sound of clapping sounded very loudly in the meeting room of BlueStar Ltd, which was the office of Mr. Bob, whose full name was Bobby Jones. It was just that he preferred to be called by the name Bob alone without his last name. All the directors who came seemed amazed by the explanation given by Aaron, they seemed very satisfied with the details mentioned by Aaron during the presentation.
"It turns out that your big name is undoubtedly great, Mr. Aaron, you are very great. No wonder the Connery Corporation can be this big now," said Mr. Bob excitedly, praising Aaron while patting Aaron's shoulder repeatedly.
"Please do not praise me too much, sir, my company wouldn't be anything without this company you lead." Aaron replied modestly.
"Hahahaha you are truly a great leader, then let's sign this collaboration," said Mr. Bob, touching the letter of the cooperation agreement that was on the table.
"So you agree to cooperate with the Connery Corporation, sir?" asked Aaron incredulously.
"Of course, how could I possibly reject a company as great as the Connery Corporation. Moreover, with a leader who is very smart like you, I'm sure if our company works together, the project in Northampton will go well in the future and become a new work that will impress many people," answered Mr Bob with a friendly smile on his face.
"Thank you sir, thank you for trusting Connery Corporation as the new business partner of BlueStar Ltd. I promise that the new project will be a great success," said Aaron excitedly.
"I trust you, Mr. Aaron. You can definitely take our company to a much bigger scale than it is today. Then let's sign it." said Mr. Bob quietly, as he handed Aaron a pen.
Shortly thereafter, they both signed the cooperation agreement letter between BlueStar Ltd and Connery Corporation led by Mr. Bob and Aaron. After signing the letter of cooperation, they then took photos together with several important people at the BlueStar Ltd company, as well as the team brought by Aaron, and lastly, they all took pictures in the same frame. After the meeting was over, Mr. Bob invited Aaron to enjoy lunch together at the La Pazienza restaurant that he had previously booked. La Pazienza was a very famous Italian restaurant in Northampton. This restaurant provided a wide variety of Italian dishes made by an Italian-specialty chef. Even though the inside of the restaurant was not too fancy like other restaurants, the taste of the food in this restaurant had been recognized by everyone who had come to Northampton. Usually, visitors who had tasted the food at La Pazienza would definitely come back to this restaurant as the taste of the food was unforgettable. That was why Mr. Bob invited his guests from London to have lunch at the restaurant.
In the restaurant, Aaron seemed to repeatedly receive drinks from Mr. Bob. He could not refuse the gift of his new co-worker. They all enjoyed the food that was prepared and specially made by the chef for Aaron and his men. Mr Bob served Aaron very well. Mr. Bob was known for his kindness to his business partners, but not all of his business partners could get the kindness that Aaron currently received. Mr. Bob was a businessman who really chose his colleagues, therefore Aaron was very happy when his offer of cooperation to BlueStar Ltd immediately responded by Mr. Bob.
"I'm very happy today, Daniel, we have a million dollar project now." Aaron said many times when Daniel took him to the elevator when they arrived at the hotel. Accepting Mr. Bob drinks had made Aaron drunk.
"Yes, I'm also happy, sir," replied Daniel briefly.
"I'm so impatient to start this project, I really can't wait any longer hahahahaha ... I'll be richer, Daniel, richer hahahaha." Aaron shouted loudly. Every time he was drunk, he couldn't control himself like this time.
"Yes, yes, yes, you will get richer and annoying. You better come with me and don't touch the statue, are you crazy touching the bust, Aaron!!!" Daniel shouted loudly, he was surprised when he saw Aaron groping the breast of the statue beside the elevator on the fifth floor.
Instead of listening to Daniel's words, Aaron let go of Daniel's hand that was gripping his arm. He then bent towards the statue and apologized repeatedly because it was rude to touch her breasts. Seeing what Aaron was doing made Daniel slap his own forehead hard. He really couldn't believe that he had a stupid boss like Aaron. Because he didn't want anyone to see Aaron's silliness, Daniel grabbed Aaron and carried him quickly to the room not far from the elevator. He didn't care about Aaron who kept hitting him because he was annoyed. Aaron repeatedly said that he had not received any forgiveness from the statue yet. Therefore he refused to be taken into the room by Daniel, but Daniel, who was sober, didn't heed Aaron's words, he continued to carry his master into the room.
Bam!
With one movement, Daniel slammed Aaron's body onto the soft bed where Aaron was going to sleep tonight. He ignored Aaron's constant request to apologize to the statue. He still continued his job of removing Aaron's shoes, so that his master could sleep comfortably. Actually Aaron didn't get drunk easily, it was just that because he had continuously accepted? the beer from Mr.Bob, finally Aaron fell. He wouldn't get drunk with drinks like wine, whiskey, and others when he was fit, but not with beer. He was easily drunk with that one beverage.
"Go to sleep sir, you are really annoying and troublesome when you're drunk." Daniel said irritably. After making sure that Aaron was sleeping safely and comfortably, Daniel then went into the bathroom to refresh his body before going to sleep. They'd be staying at Northampton tonight and would not return to London until the next morning.
In his sleep, Aaron smiled. He was happy to have succeeded in getting this collaborative project. With this project, he was able to break off cooperation with Yoseph Carter. Aaron no longer wanted to see Amanda again in the future.
Meanwhile, the plane carrying the UAL student entourage had landed safely at Belfast International Airport in Ireland. All the students got off the plane that took them from London with smiles and enthusiasm. But not with Leon, he seemed to hate this trip. Anne's absence in the group completely ruined Leon's mood. His intention to approach Anne again finally failed because she didn't go to Ireland.
Steffi, who realized the change in her husband's mood, was trying to please her husband again, then sent a message to Leon containing a photo of the sexy Victoria's Secret brand lingerie that she bought in London. As Steffi thought before, Leon's face looked even more excited when he saw the message he sent.
Leon then accelerated his pace following Steffi, who walked in front, to the airport lobby and prepared to head to the hotel that was previously booked as the vacation venue for the UAL students. Leon approached Steffi and whispered, "Prepare yourself, tonight I will make you can't get out of bed."
