My Fiance Ran Away On Our Wedding Day Chapter 42

Shortly after, the group followed Anika's suggestion and climbed up the mountain that was not very
high behind the park.

The hillside was fairly serene, but Anika wore low heels, which made it difficult for her to walk upstairs.

Fortunately, Zac had been silently pulling her by the side.

Before he could climb a few steps, Gray's assistant, who was walking at the front, suddenly slipped
under his feet, stepping on a piece of accumulated soil, and even the rocks beside him rolled down.

Before Anika could dodge, a hard rock smashed into her ankle in an instant.

A burst of pain came from her body and her posture was unstable.

The man who was pulling her hurriedly extended his other hand to support her.

In the next second, Zac held her waist and bent down.

His straight eyebrows furrowed deeply, and his pitch-black eyes landed on the bleeding wound on her
ankle.

Although this wound wasn't particularly serious, it was especially dazzling when it landed on Anika’'s
fair, white ankle.

However, she only frowned slightly and then calmly looked at Gray.

"Director Hill, you can see that although this mountain is not high, the soil is not good.On rainy days,
guests will probably have to step on a lot of mud to enter and exit the hotel."

"I think the Hamiltons should be more unwilling to affect the mood of the guests.What do you think?"



Gray had already noticed Zac's deep expression.

Thinking that his assistant was implicated in Anika's injury, he felt a little more guilty and uneasy.

After hearing Anika's words, she hurriedly smiled embarrassedly and said, "Indeed, I have to trouble
Vice President Meyer.It was my assistant's fault.I'm really sorry.Do you want to..."

He wanted to ask if he should arrange for someone to help Anika deal with her wounds before climbing
down from the hill.

However, before he could finish speaking, Zac turned his brows around and bent his knees slightly.

Then, he said, "Anika, hold up: Anika was dumbfounded for a few seconds before realizing that Zac
was carrying her down the mountain.

Although she was in front of strangers, she was a little embarrassed.

She paused for a moment and said euphemistically, "Actually, I can endure it.You don't have to…” Zac
chuckled and looked over calmly.

His eyes seemed to be saying, ‘If you don't want to, I will still hug you’

Under everyone's gaze, Anika sighed in her heart and helplessly reached out her hand to hug his neck.

Carrying her back, Zac glanced at Frederick, who had just arrived, and said in a clear voice.

"I'll send her home.You stay here and cooperate with Peter in dealing with the matters that lie ahead-"

With that, the two of them overlapped and headed towards the foot of the mountain.

As for the others, they tactfully didn't follow.



Gray stood there and looked at Frederick.

He knew that the other party was Zac's special aid and companion, so he made fun of him and said,
"President Hill and Vice President Meyer's relationship is really good.

Yet they still bother you to help them.’ Frederick expressionlessly nodded his head and said
indifferently, "Their relationship is naturally good."

To accomplish everything, the CEO must be at the peak of his emotions.

After Frederick spoke, Gray finally understood.

On the other side, Anika took a deep breath and whispered to the man.

"Am I heavy? Why don't you put me down?"

Actually, she didn't think that her injury was that serious.

Even though she had twisted her leg just now, it wasn't as if she couldn't walk at all.

Zac chuckled and replied calmly.

"It doesn't bother me at all"

He carried her firmly on his back, his arms curved like they were very strong, and his footsteps were
very steady.

Anika placed her hands on his broad shoulders and stared at the back of the man’s head.

After a pause, she stopped talking.



The driver waited at the entrance of the park and learned that Anika had injured her foot, so he drove
faster on his way back.

Half an hour later, the two of them returned to the villa.

The medicine kit was placed on the coffee table in the living room.

Anika leaned against the sofa in the living room and rolled up her trousers.

Zac, who had just insisted on giving her medicine, was obviously a little clumsy.

Seeing her tightly pursing her lips, he frowned and said in a deep voice.

"Does it hurt?"

Anika was slightly stunned and shook her head.

Zac sized her up a few times, but for some reason, he frowned.

Suddenly, he put down the cotton swab in his hand and looked up at her with a serious gaze.

"Anika?"

"Huh?"

"Let's talk."

Anika couldn't figure out the reason why he suddenly became serious, and her expression became a
little more surprised.

"What is it?"

"In the eyes of others, I am your husband."



Zac chuckled as he looked at her, then said, "Anika, you should know that men are born with superior
physiques.That's why society always requires men to shoulder the responsibility of protecting their
women and children’

"We know you're excellent, but you don't have to exert yourself all the time.You are usually tense and
distrustful around others.Aren't you tired?"

As she finished speaking, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she suddenly remembered her
grandpa's words that contained deep regret when she went back to the old mansion...

"You hadn't seen your family in a while."

Zac did not like her appearance of always being more patient, but Anika did not notice his expression
and was always stubborn enough not to show weakness to others.

Anika was slightly stunned.

She pursed her lower lip and muttered.

"So what?" Zac sighed helplessly.

"So from today onwards, you should learn to ask me for help."

After stopping, he picked up the cotton swab and added in a low voice.

"At least, in front of the strangers."

"Don't worry, I'm very satisfied with living together with you.As long as your request is not too much, I
won't be annoyed" He tried to reassure her.

"In a way, we're closer than the others.It makes me uncomfortable that you're always so distant to me"



Anika met his gaze and felt that his deep eyes were brewing emotions that she did not understand, so
her fingertips subconsciously curled up.

‘Closer than the others?’

It seemed that apart from the initial partnership, there was an unexplainable connection between her
and Zac because of their nominal marriage.

It was possible that he had feelings for her that developed in the process of helping her with the North
City Project.

And to her, Zac's help had more intentions than just helping her as her partner.

This was the first time someone had seriously told her not to worry too much and to learn to ask him for
help.

Anika was always used to running away from the cowardice caused by dependence.

She never thought that this would also make the people around her feel stressed.

A moment of silence had been broken after Zac talked.

"Actually...it seems to hurt a little."

Her eyes suddenly became clear, and before she could sort out her chaotic thoughts, she blurted out
these words.

After reacting, Anika sighed.

She frowned and remained silent for a long time.



Finally, she chuckled with mixed emotions and said in a low voice.

"Zac, thank you” She thought that it wasn't that difficult to show weakness.

In fact, after letting go of the tense corner of her heart, she felt relieved.

"It's my pleasure."

The man let out a gentle hum, his expression unchanged, but he did not restrain himself from moving
his hands.

In the living room, the atmosphere became silent.

After Zac finished treating her wounds and got up to pack the medicine chest, Anika, who had been
silent for a long time, suddenly said, "There is one more thing I want to say...I'm sorry"

"Huh?"

Zac raised his eyebrows and looked back.

She paused and lowered her eyes.

"That day, I shouldn't have mistaken you for spying on me while having a conversation with Nataly
because of my momentary emotions."

Just like he said, he couldn't be blamed for the poor sound insulation of the second bedroom.

"Oh."

The man's gaze somehow floated onto the medicine chest and replied coldly.

"It's fine"



After a while, he casually said, "Then do you want to add your soundproof material?"

Hearing this, Anika pondered for a few seconds and shook her head with a chuckle.
