Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 1006: I do!

Serena could not help but laugh, but her eyes turned red. Then tears formed. The tears looked like clear crystals that sparkled in front of Anna's eyes.

She reached out her hand and touched Anna's cheek.

It was a little strong and Anna frowned, but said nothing.

-Does it hurt? -Serena asked.

Anna half-closed her lips, looked at her with pained eyes and whispered, -Of course it hurts, why are you pinching my cheek all of a sudden?

-It hurts, why didn't you say so? -Serena asked.

Anna froze for a moment, then finally understood what Serena's gesture meant. She angrily slapped Serena's hand and turned around.

-Bad Serena! You know I'm not as smart as you and you keep leading me into a trap.

-How am I leading you into a trap? I'm just pinching your cheek, who allowed you not to say that?

Said Serena, with more tears in her eyes.

When Anna turned around, she felt more comfortable talking this way, so she did not force her to turn around and said softly, "Do you understand what I just told you?

If you don't speak, no one will ever know that you are suffering. You know, like this time, when you told me you wanted to leave without saying why, and then you wanted to stay after you found out my situation. Anna, we are good friends. We should support each other, not you satisfying me and helping me, that would make you tired.

Anna was a little excited, but did not respond to his words.

-I already know all about your recent performance in the company," Serena continued.

-Serena, I....

Anna turned anxiously, and Serena noticed that her eyes were red, so her sudden turning away was because she was afraid of being discovered by Serena....

-What a fool you are,II Serena tried to smile, even though she had tears in her eyes.

There is no need to explain. I know you've been in a bad mood lately. And although you have always told me that you will recover, there are many things that cannot be forced and take time to recover. Since you want to quit, then I agree.

Not expecting me to say yes so quickly, Anna was surprised for a moment, "Serena, I'm sorry, I made a mistake. I really don't want to stop, I just....

-I know," Serena gently interrupted her and said, "I know all that. You don't have to explain yourself. Do what you want and what you like. You don't have to worry about me. I will find a way to handle it. -Serena... -Anna very much regretted this moment, earlier she did not want to stay because she was worried about causing a big loss to the company in its current state. She wanted to resign, hoping that Serena could find someone more capable of handling these things in her place.

But now that Serena had agreed, Anna was in a panic again. She tried to say something to hold Serena back, but Serena said directly, "You can pack your bags today.

Anna finally stopped moving and looked at her expressionlessly.

After a while, a tear slipped from the corner of her eye and Anna went to Serena and hugged her gently, -Serena, thank you. Serena was also moved a little and held back her tears as she patted Anna on the back, -Come on, why are you being so dramatic? Go get your things and get some rest.

-What are you going to do when I'm gone? -Anna's voice sounded muffled, as if she were about to cry.

-Stay quiet, don't worry. You're quitting today, you have nothing more to do in the company, so stop thinking about it and relax.

-I don't care about the company, I only care about you, II Anna pushed her away and looked at her with tear-filled eyes. Look, you are pregnant now, you already have a lot to do, and if you are asked to take care of the company's business, you....

Before he could finish the sentence, Serena pushed his shoulder toward the sofa, "Quick, go pack your things, don't think too much about other things, have fun this time. Even if the company no longer concerns you now, the door is always open for you in the future if you want to come back. But I would rather you go and do what you like and stop sacrificing your precious time and thoughts for me. Anna was pushed out of her office, tears falling harder at her words.

She was the best friend in the world.

Anna could barely hold back her tears, but then she thought, "This is the office. And if she cried and I left the next day, I wonder what others would think of Serena."

So in the end, Anna refrained from crying.

Anna packed her bags and left the company that same day. Serena did not ask her to give up her job, but gave her a salary and a bonus and sent her home.

She did not want Anna to take over the company before she left.

So once Anna left, Serena was particularly busy.

She left without delivering the work, so Serena did not know many of the orders. So she had to look them up and find out for herself, and in some cases she asked Arianna to come and help her. Arianna was a great admirer of hers and came very quickly as soon as she called her.

-Anna is leaving the company as of today; she is no longer an employee. And if she asks you anything about the company, don't tell her anything.

Arianna was very surprised, thinking.

"So soon?

-Why can't you tell her? In case she...

-If she calls you, just tell her that the company is doing very well and she doesn't have to worry. Don't say anything else if she asks.

Arianna understood the meaning of Serena's words, "I understand, you don't want Anna to worry about what's going on in the company. You let her leave today, didn't you? -Yes,II Serena nodded, -she's been in a bad mood lately, so I sent her to rest right away. Arianna, you are improving fast and are very enthusiastic about this work. Anna. Arianna's eyes widened, -Will you give me the job?

This reaction made Serena wince and hesitate for a moment before asking politely, -Don't you want to?

-I want, I want, I want! -Arianna nodded her head vigorously and said excitedly, I never thought you would trust me so much, of course I do!

Serena thought she was reluctant when she reacted like that, but in fact she was too excited.

Serena laughed, "Well, Anna just left and hasn't had time to fix anything, so I need you to work with me for a few days.
