I've never felt this way before, Anika made me genuinely happy. She had the ability to make me forget everything else.

I might be falling for my future wife. Am I? No I don't think so.. But will I fall in love with my future wife in the near future? Definitely!

After spending a few peaceful hours with Anika, I headed home. She was a goofball, but that was one of the things I loved about her.

As I drove home, I realized that I needed to start searching for a home. I wanted us to have our own private space when we got married.

It wasn't that Anika didn't get along with my parents; in fact, she loved them.

I had my personal reasons for wanting more privacy.

When I got home, I had to attend a meeting. I felt the need to participate in all of them to gain a better understanding of everything before taking over as the CEO.

However, today was different. I felt restless and had a terrible headache.

I couldn't help but wonder if this was just the beginning and if the workload would only get more overwhelming in the future.

I knew I was overthinking, but I couldn't shake the feeling of unease.

I woke up early the next morning, around 6 a.m., and did a quick workout before heading to the office. I was usually the first one to arrive, eager to start my day.

However, today was different. I couldn't shake the restlessness, and my headache had worsened. I tried to work, but it was a waste of time.

The constant meetings and discussions only added to my discomfort.

During lunchtime, I retreated to my cabin, sitting at my desk and massaging my temples. I rarely had visitors in my office, and meetings were usually scheduled through the landline.

So, when I heard a knock on the door, I was surprised.

"Come in," I said, not expecting anyone but my assistant.

Anika walked in, and I couldn't help but feel a slight relief. Her presence alone seemed to reduce my headache.

"Hey," she greeted me with concern in her eyes.

"Hey," I replied, looking up at her.

"What brings you here?" I asked, genuinely curious.
