Chapter 131 – She’s Mine
Since Daniel had already left for Northampton, Aaron had to get to the office early. There was some work to be done today too. In fact, he really wanted to go to Anne's apartment to ask Anne why she just left him last night. But he had to postpone his intention because the work in his office had accumulated.
Releasing cooperation with Joseph Carter was not an easy matter for Aaron, because he had to take care of all matters related to the project. Joseph Carter's personal lawyer had asked him to return several important documents belonging to Joseph Carter's company that were in his hands, even though at this time the keys to the safe keeping of all these documents were being carried by Aaron's personal lawyer who went to Northampton with Daniel. That was why he had to go to the office so early today.
"Really troublesome," Aaron said quietly as he gripped the pen in his hand firmly.
Currently, in Aaran's office, there were several important people who were skilled at unlocking the safe. He was forced to call them, because he could not possibly ask his lawyer to returned to London to unlock the safe.
"I did not think that a great person like you still uses an old safe like this, sir," said the safe deposit expert who was called by Aaron, quietly praising Aaron, because the safe that they were currently trying to open was an ancient safe with very good quality and could only be opened by certain people only.
"This safe is a legacy of my late father, so I want to keep using it. After all, this safe is older than my father's age, so I still use it. I consider this a hereditary legacy from my ancestors," replied Aaron softly, trying to make a joke.
Hearing Aaron's words made the two experts who opened the safe laughed. They were happy with Aaron's sense of humor. Not long after, the safe was successfully opened without breaking the key at all. Aaron was really amazed by the work of the two experts. After successfully opening the locked safe, Aaron then took out several important documents that were requested by the personal lawyer of Joseph Carter, after he escorted the two experts who had helped him to open the old safe.
"All of these are Mr. Joseph Carter's files that are left in my office, so from this moment on, we both really have nothing to do with you, sir," Aaron said quietly as he handed the documents in his hand to the personal lawyer of Joseph Carter. .
"Well, sir, I received all these documents well and it seems that as you have said before, that by giving this document, it means that you and Mr. Carter are not bound by any cooperation anymore. So that when there are problems later about the project you have both done, it is no longer the responsibility of the other," the lawyer named Locky replied loudly.
"You take it easy, Mr. Locky, our relationship will still run well even though we are not working together and we will continue to monitor the project we have been working on until this project is completed. I will also be responsible to oversee the construction of the apartment until it's over. You don't have to worry about the relationship between the two of us. Because trust me, Mr. Carter will still be on good terms with me," Aaron said in a high voice. He replied to the snarl that the young lawyer had previously given him.
Locky, who previously had slightly threatened Aaron to look for his client's face, Joseph Carter, immediately fell silent. He felt that there was something he did not know between the client and Aaron Connery in front of him at this time. His plan to find face for Joseph Carter had also failed, because it turned out that Aaron Connery was far more terrifying than he had previously imagined. After his business was finished, Locky finally left Aaron, who looked very angry.
"Fuck, how dare a rotten lawyer like him threaten me! Doesn't he know what secrets I hold on his current client? You sycophant lawyer!" Aaron said irritably as he looked at Locky, who finally disappeared from his eyes.

The sound of his smartp hone on the table made Aaron wake up from his anger. He slowly grabbed his cell phone. Immediately his eyes sparkled when he saw the notification that came in. Since his business in the office this morning was done, Aaron decided to go to Anne's apartment, after receiving a notification that his message had been sent. The reason was that since the night the message has been pending.
"Finally, you turn on your cell phone again, Anne," Jack said quietly when he was in his private elevator that was sliding down to the basement.
Arriving at the basement, Aaron walked straight to his favorite car, which was ready to take him wherever he wanted. He chose to drive his own favorite car. He didn't want his time with Anne to be disturbed by the driver. With high speed, Aaron drove the Royce-Roll Drophead Phantom on the road. His smile continued to grow in the car. He couldn't wait to meet Anne.
Since the streets were not too busy, it only took Aaron thirty minutes to get to Anne's apartment. When she was about to enter the apartment complex, he was surprised by the sight that was in front of his eyes, where right in front of him, it was clear that Jackson Patrick Muller was guiding Anne into his Bugatti Veyron. Because Anne's apartment complex had two different entrance, he did not meet Jack and Anne because they went through the exit while he was currently still at the entrance. .
"Jackson, what are you doing so early in Anne's apartment?" Aaron said softly as he glared at Jack's car that had come out of the apartment complex.
Without thinking, Aaron then drove his car to the exit. He wanted to follow Jack's car that took Anne away. After successfully exiting the apartment complex, Aaron then tried to find traces of Jack's car that had not been seen before his eyes. Luckily, he followed Jack's car out of the way, the road he was following was the only way to go to Anne's flower shop.
"Tch, so you also know that Anne owns a flower shop, Jack," Aaron said softly in his car which stopped not far from Jack's car which was parked right in front of the flower shop.
Aaron continued to stare at Jack who was talking with Anne and Paul who had just come out of the shop. Not long after, he drove his car back when he saw Jack leave the flower shop with his car. Overwhelmed by jealousy, Aaron spurred his car, trying to keep up with Jack's car, which had sped up not far ahead of him.
"Anne is mine, Jackson! How dare you approach her," Aaron said coldly as he honked his car many times when he was right behind Jack's car.
