My Fiance Ran Away On Our Wedding Day

Chapter 43 

The injury on Anika’s foot was shallow.

A few days later, she put on comfortable shoes when she went to work after the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Zac knew that she had to go to work.

He frowned and said a few words.

However, he did not resolve her stubbornness but only made a promise that he wouldn't go to the construction site for the next few days.

As the construction of the North City Project officially started, Anika had a bunch of workloads.

The next few days were very busy to the point that she often brought her work at home to finish it over time.

As a result, there was no time to cook.

For several days, Zac had not enjoyed the take-out breakfast service.

Early Thursday morning, Anika packed up and went downstairs.

Zac was already dressed and was sitting on the sofa.

He scowled as he stared at the two sandwiches on the coffee table.

She instantly gained a different understanding of him.

Although she knew that Zac was used to having breakfast, she did not expect that Zac would actually cook for her, even after she did not step in the kitchen for four consecutive days.

Anika raised her eyebrows and slowly walked forward.

"Did you make these two sandwiches?"

Zac saw Anika as she walked downstairs.

He pursed his thin lips and replied indifferently, "Yes."

Anika was quite surprised.

She looked at the sandwich on the coffee table and nodded in acknowledgment of his hard work.

She spoke to herself, ‘Sandwiches are not hard to make, and there are many recipes online.

Zac made these two sets, and they look quite well’.

She casually pointed at one of the sandwiches and smiled at him, "So this one was made for me?"

Zac leaned against the sofa and didn't answer directly.

After a while, he looked at her with a confused expression.

He casually glanced at her and shook his head, "No"

Perhaps because she felt that the man's answer had wasted her feelings, the corner of Anika's mouth twitched slightly and she did not speak again.

Zac looked at her expression carefully and gazed down.

He coughed lightly and said, "If you want to eat, I'll cook it for you tomorrow”

As for today's portion, it was better to give it to Tony.

The man's expression didn't show any signs of change.

When she met his calm gaze, the gratitude that Anika was about to say was trapped on her lips.

However, Zac didn't seem to care whether she thanked him or not.

With that, he straightened his clothes, put two sandwiches in his rigid bag, and looked at her, "Let's go’

At lunchtime, Tony came to the top floor as usual and had eaten with Zac.

He felt that people could be emotionally lonely, but not when they were eating.

Tony couldn't eat alone with just a single person's meal.

Even if Zac was only holding a sandwich, it was better than him eating alone downstairs.

Tony's lunch tasted even better since his sister-in-law hadn't delivered any food for Zac for the last few days.

After habitually he sat opposite to Zac, Tony took out his phone and prepared to order takeout for two...

However, a palm with distinct joints suddenly appeared on the menu flashed on the screen.

"What's wrong, Zac?" Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Tony looked at the man in front of him in confusion.

Zac's eyelids slightly dropped as he slowly moved his knuckles towards the lunchbox on his desk.

Then, he took Tony's phone and ordered takeout for one person.

Tony was a little surprised.

"Oh, Anika is cooking for you again?"

Zac gave him a faint glance while he put down his phone.

He raised his eyebrows slightly.

Tony didn't care about the other party's indifference.

He knew that Anika had been busy with her work recently, so that she had no choice but to stop cooking for Zac.

Tony was thinking, ‘Unexpectedly, Anika started making sandwiches for Zac right after she finished work! How much love is this! But ..

"Zac, are you saying ...you want me to eat this?"

Tony was flattered and looked up at Zac.

"Yes."

The man affirmed, paused for a moment, then smiled and asked, "What, don't you want to eat now?"

Tony hurriedly nodded.

"Think about it, I haven't tasted Anika's cooking for so long!"

In the past, when he wanted to taste the sandwich made by Anika, Zac's gaze seemed to tear him up.

Today, Zac was very generous.

He was actually willing to share it with Tony! Moreover ...

He even gave Tony two of them! Tony couldn't help but shed tears for this deep brotherhood.

He picked up the sandwich devoutly, took an emotional bite, and tasted it carefully in his mouth.

A few seconds later ...

"Zac...why is there an eggshell here?"

"How much sea salt did she put in it?"

"No, I'm about to die for this too much salt!"

Ten minutes later, Tony had barely finished a sandwich under the pressure of Zac’s gaze.

After a pause, he had no choice but to extend his hand to the other.

Zac casually supported his chin as he watched Tony finish his failed work and said, "Do you still want to eat it in the future?"

Tony hurriedly shook his head.

He swore that he would never secretly love Anika's sandwiches in his heart again.

‘How much love did Zac have to bear to eat Anika's sandwich without changing his expression!’ Tony thought to himself.

Anika did not know that the two unpleasant sandwiches were already in Tony's stomach.

After the last conversation, her relationship with Zac seemed to have improved a lot.

Anika knew that Zac had a lot to deal with the people from the Planning Bureau.

In the past few days, she would always go to the study room to ask him about things that she did not understand in the approval documents, and they did not hesitate to give him advice.

After returning home in the evening, Anika was listening to Zac as he explained the specific process of planning and evaluation in the study.

She seemed to have comprehended something and nodded.

She subconsciously replied, "Thank you."

Behind the desk, Zac leisurely raised his eyebrows, his pitch-black eyes filled with a smile, "Anika, have you enjoyed thanking me recently?"

Anika's expression was slightly stunned that made her eyebrows narrow.

It seemed that she had thanked Zac quite a few times recently.

She thought, 'l kept on thanking him, not only because of work but also because of life’.

A few days ago, the water pipe in the secondary bathroom leaked.

Originally, Anika wanted to invite a maintenance worker over.

However, when she told Zac about it, the man shook his head with a chuckle and told her that he was going to fix it.

After a few simple glances, Zac turned around and went to the grocery room to retrieve the spare waiter pipe.

Then, under Anika's gaze, she changed the spare water pipe less than two times and solved the problem of water leakage.

Naturally, Anika did not know that Zac could repair water pipes, and her expression was rather surprised at that time.

Zac raised his eyebrows and said casually, "See? This is the advantage of having a man at home."

Anika felt a little helpless when she met his teasing gaze.

However, he still ignored his tone and smiled as she thanked him.

She had already thanked Zac more than ten times these past few days.

Anika did not expect this new manner of hers.

Zac saw her standing there with the approval document in hand.

He slowly extended his hand and smiled as he patted the top of her hair.

"Anika, you don't need to thank me anymore for accepting my help.Didn't you also give the tuition fee to help me make up the lessons?"

Anika had just regained her senses when she heard him mention that moment in their senior high school.

She couldn't help but shake her head while she's reading a paper.

"I never thought that you would be able to read such a boring document now.” Anika had indeed taught him a fundamental lesson for free, but that was also a condition that Zac had betted on.

Nearly two years had passed since Anika was brought back to the Meyer family by her grandfather when she was in her third year of high school.

She knew that her English was not good, so she did not want to apply for the university to go abroad directly.

Instead, she decided to stay in Florida for the college entrance exam.

Anika's review progress was very fast.

In her second month of high school, she had already finished reviewing all the lessons in high school and started to recall the lessons from the previous year.
