After ann heard Jeff's message, she felt like a new person. 'Whenever they interacted with each other, she feels alive. They bonded so much just in a few weeks they had spent together. I think it's about time. When this is over, I will need to make a choice, but not until then.' Ann thought.

Ann was in deep thought; she did not realize how her friend/Manager was staring at her confused.

'Jeff had changed her life in so many ways, like her friend Lea, who had been there when she needed someone the most. Jeff also seems there whenever she needed someone since the day she met him four years ago.' Ann was looking outside the car while passing through some beautiful scenery on the way home.

" Earth to Ann? " Lea said

"huh! Did you say something? I'm sorry! I was in deep thought."

Lea glance at her just a little then continued looking straight at the road. "Are you ready for tomorrow?" with concern on her voice.

" As ready as I can be, I guess!" Ann replied nonchalantly.

" Hey! Ann, let me asks you something, and you can only answer me truthfully ok!" Lea took a big breathe first then asks: " Are you now in love your Husband? If you are, What are your priorities? Love or career?" Lea asked Ann straightforward without hesitation.

" First! Yes! I know now deep in my heart that I'm in love with my husband. Second; priorities? Career over Love? That one is a little tough to answer. Because I want both, is that asking too much?" She replied to her friend worriedly.

Back in the condo, Jeff prepared himself. He took a shower, ordered some food for dinner. Bottle of wine chilling. Lastly, called his assistant to take Lea out somewhere, get her a room for the night. He wants this night to be extraordinary. Tomorrow will be a battle in Tan Corporation. Nobody knows what the outcome will be.

Ann and Lea arrived at the condo parking lot when Lea received a text message: [ "Hey! Beautiful, would you like to find out how well I perform?" ] From Ronald as per Jeff's instructions.

"Ann you go ahead, I have a matter needed my attention." with a grin showing her teeth.

"Alright! If you must, so be it. Go! Don't forget tomorrow ok! No matter what, be back on time for that." Ann was, worrying about how is she going to get rid of Lea for the night. She knows Jeff will be staying and she doesn't want to be too apparent to her friend.

She waives Lea goodbye and hurried to where her husband is waiting.

On the way up in the elevator, Ann's heart is beating fast. *thump. thump.* put her hand by her chest and felt her heart. 'why are you beating so fast. You're acting like a teenager about to meet her crush; He's your husband for god sake. You can walk on him butt naked and its still alright.' She keeps on telling herself hoping it will help her calm down before he arrives home.

When Ann arrives at her condo. The light is dim; soft music is playing, the smell of fantastic food spreading into her nostril. 'hmmm, What is this smell, it smells so good is making me hungry.' She thought to herself, not knowing she said it out loud.

" Hi! Honey, your home. Are you hungry?"

" Hmmm, yup I'm famished!" Ann replied to Jeff so sweetly, ready for action. ( I mean to eat.)

" Well, the smell that your talking about is me! DO YOU WANT TO EAT ME?"

Ann: '^-^'
