It turned out that not only her clothes were wet, but the hair she had tied back was also experiencing the same thing. Soaked in oil. Her body was already very sticky with sweat, and now the oil spills added to the discomfort in her body.

Anna then went to the bathroom to clean herself, luckily there was a clean towel there, so she could easily take off her clothes. But unfortunately, after she washed the clothes, she just remembered that in this house there is no clothes dryer. Yes, of course, she knew, she had been cleaning the house for several days, and she had never once found it.

Really bad day. How about this? She didn't bring a change of clothes at all, It is impossible if she walk out wearing still wet clothes. What if she only wears a towel?

Anna was confused, she was at her wit's end.

Having been in the bathroom for about ten minutes, Anna still hasn't moved from her position. She decided to wait for her clothes to dry a bit, at least when she wear them back the water wouldn't fall. Yes, that's the only thing on her mind right now.

"Anna."

Anna almost fell over in shock, someone called her from outside, and it was Devan's voice. 'Oh, how's this?'

"Anna.." the second time her name was called.

"Where are you?" shouted Devan again.

"Yeah, I-I'm here," Anna stuttered.

There was no response, making Anna move closer to the bathroom door to hear what the man was doing.

Knock...knock...knock...

"Are you in there?" Devan suddenly knocked on the bathroom door and it made Anna flinch.

"Y-yes, I am," answered Anna.

Anna put her ear to the door again, gripping the doorknob firmly, just in case Devan opened it suddenly, even though it was impossible because she had locked it from the inside. Even so, she still felt afraid.

"Okay, finish your affairs quickly and get out. It's a mess in here," Devan spoke again, but sounded distant, causing Anna to breathe a sigh of relief and return to normalcy.

"A mess? It's all your doing," replied Anna with a mumble. She then touched her dress which she hung next to her, still very wet.

While on the other hand, Devan, who has landed his body on the sofa, is now focusing on his work, occasionally he is seen calling someone. Until more than an hour had passed, his brow furrowed.

Devan looked around and still couldn't find the woman.

"Where is she going?" Devan stood up and looked for Anna.

"Where are you? Anna..." The man called out to Anna.

"I'm here." Devan's brow furrowed again when he heard the origin of the woman's voice.

"Are you still inside?" He walked towards the bathroom.

"Yes, I am."

"Are you having a problem? Want me to call a doctor?" asked Devan again, worried if something had happened to the woman from falling a few moments ago.

"No, I am not," Anna answered quickly.

"I'm fine," she added.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, trust me. I'm fine."

"Then get out."

Hearing the man's voice, Anna kept grumbling and cursing in her heart. It seemed she couldn't wait for her clothes to dry any longer.

"I want to go out for a while, prepare lunch for me," said Devan again, and it made Anna smile instantly.

"Okay, don't worry," answered Anna in a voice that was louder than before.

"Don't come home if you can, that'd be better," she grumbled.

"What? I didn't hear you."

"I'll cook, don't worry," Anna shouted again.

"Okay."

Anna stayed where she was, waiting a few minutes. Having sensed that maybe Devan had left the house, Anna took a perfectly upright position and breathed a sigh of relief.

At this rate, she no longer needed to wait for her clothes to dry. Devan comes out and that means she is alone at home.

Anna intends to dry her clothes outside while cooking lunch. It's okay to just use a towel, right? Just thinking about it, all the things that Anna was worried about before disappeared in an instant.

A smile filled her face.

"Why don't I just get out of here?" she muttered then grabbed the clothes she was hanging right next to her and opened the door.

"Aghhh..." Anna screamed in surprise, again she lost her balance.

Devan was still standing there in front of the door and Anna had almost run into him if she hadn't taken a step back.

Luckily Devan moved swiftly as he did in the kitchen earlier, holding Anna's body from falling.

Seeing the appearance of Anna who was only wearing a towel, Devan reflexively let go of the woman's body.

"Agghh..." And Anna fell on the bathroom floor.

"A-ah, s-sorry," said Devan who simultaneously turned around. He who used to be used to seeing women's bodies, for some reason now became a little… nervous? It was as if he had made a mistake when he saw Anna's smooth exposed shoulders.

"Aww..sshhhh," Anna groaned, feeling her waist hurt.

"Where are your clothes?" Devan asked, his current position turned his back to Anna.

"Don't blame me, who told you to just wear a towel?" he added again.

"Then why did you say you were going out and still stand here?" replied Anna trying to get up from her position, but had difficulty. Her waist hurt so much when she even just moved a little.

"Why? This is my house."

"Yeah. Okay, okay. I was wrong, I'm sorry," replied Anna.

"That's the way it has to be. In history, there's never been a boss that went wrong. Understand?"

"Understood, Mr. Devan the all-righteous," replied Anna very annoyed.

"Now put on your clothes. Don't hang around looking like that," said Devan again.

"Ugh… My clothes were wet, they got oil on them when they fell in the kitchen," replied Anna.

Devan was silent, his brows knit together, looking thoughtful.

"So you didn't want to go out earlier because of this?" he asked.

Anna didn't answer, her waist hurt a lot. She could neither sit nor stand. She then adjusted and tightened the towel ties around her body with her wet clothes which she quickly spread to cover her thighs.

"Why didn't you tell me? Stupid." Devan then left Anna and walked up to the second floor to his room, as if he didn't care about her condition at all.

Left alone, Anna snorted, then shifted her body against the wall while holding back the pain.

Only a few minutes later, Devan came back down the stairs with a white shirt in one hand.

"Anna, where are you?" he shouted when he couldn't find the woman anywhere, the door of the bathroom is also wide open.

"I'm still here," A few seconds after Anna answered, a piece of clothing landed right on her body. Yes, Devan threw the shirt he was carrying on the girl's body carelessly.

"Use it for a while," said Devan from outside.

Anna who heard that froze.. How does she wear the clothes that Devan gave her? While she is very difficult to move.
