Calista: Pursuing the Love of the CEO

Dante's Oversight

Dante looked at Kalista as if he was going to swallow her round and round but took a breath, a sign not to be reported.

"Forget it."

"What did Daddy say?"

Dante snorted before he returned to his usual self. "I just wanted to ask why you didn't ask me about Sergio."

Silent.

Kalista took a minute to load that he was really stupid because he forgot how useful the One Billion Man really is.

"Daddy knows where Sergio is?!"

"That's right and if I want to tell you, don't call me that."

"OK!"

Dante is happy to give Sergio the location.

Julio glanced at Dante's presence on the sofa there before looking at Kalista who told him of Sergio's whereabouts.

"I think I ngeremehin Narendra even if only ordinary subordinates," said Julio not too happy. "Aren't you just told to take care of the Kalista directly, not the spies of those around him?"

Seeing Julio's reaction, Kalista was a bit frightened. But one side of it proves that Julio is even very wary of them. That means Dante is really a useful ally and will get whatever information it is, even if it is confidential.

"Sir Julio, I asked Dante." Kalista held Julio's hand to get him distracted. "Dante won't take secret files or anything else. He's really just looking after me."

Julio's gaze pointed at the necklace on Kalista's neck suddenly. For a moment Julio was silent, but then moved on, releasing Kalista's hand.

"You get out first, Kalista. I'll talk to him both."

"Sister."

Julio smiled. Kissing Kalista's lips and pushing her slowly to get out. "Five minutes" he said before making sure the door was locked.

The glass of the room becomes opaque, closing the possibility of Kalista peeking. Julio approaches Dante, crossing over to see him like a pest.

"You get paid the same Om Rahadyan? Not because she was asked to be with Winnie but because she was paid, right?"

Dante who heard it wrong but approached the truth so laughed a little. Of course, Julio doesn't become CEO unless he has this acumen.

"It really matters? In essence I'll take care of the little girl."

Julio looked even more upset. Of course it was important because it meant that he could have lied about his blood relationship with Vice-Chancellor Winnie Ma'am. And if he's not Miss Winnie's sister then it means he's just a stranger in Kalista's life, who will always be by her side, helping her, saving her, and one day seizing her heart.

That's a big deal.

Julio believes in Kalista. He does not believe that Kalista will really change his feelings just because someone is more handsome, especially after he and Kalista are bound in a relationship. But that doesn't make Julio happy to let Kalista be with a stranger.

"One of the families in this world who has symbols and maniacs like themselves is Narendra." Julio hardens his jaw. "There is no power in this country that does not know the symbol of Narendra is roses, want to be carried, shoes, helicopters, including diamond necklaces."

Yeah, that's one of the problems.

How dare he give a diamond necklace to Julio's girl. Does he think Julio can't give you anything else too?

Huh! He had but before that Kalista's necklace had to be removed.

Dante who heard it immediately laughed amusedly. "So you're basically jealous of me? Still about the precious necklace on the little guy's neck?"

"Don't give my girlfriend a nickname!" resolute Julio wrath. "And it's not about jealousy. I do not agree with your actions, Narendra, who feels the same right to the privacy of others, including my sister."

In Dante's ear it's just an excuse because he's jealous and he wants Dante to leave Kalista's side.

As a love fairy, Dante smirked happily. It's also good if he plays with them.

"You think I'm gonna fire?" Julio was eaten.

"Hey, what are my strengths? I'm just paid to follow orders. If you're not happy, go and tell the boss directly. Of course, it will make your relationship and Little Miss caught by Rahadyan. I'm still keeping it a secret, but I don't know when I changed my mind."

"Now you're nagging me." Julio fully considers Dante an enemy.

Dante sneered, getting off the couch. "I'd better get out because seeing a jealous guy sucks. But, let me tell you one important thing."

Dante whispered as if afraid that someone would hear. "The necklace on the Kalista is more expensive than your company. Inside, it's stored a pure diamond."

Of course it's a lie. But it made Julio's face flushed in anger and overwhelmingly unacceptable.

When Dante came out, he quietly whispered to Kalista, "You want to see your man go crazy? Don't let go of the necklace on your neck even if he's begging. Understood?"

Kalista nodded obediently, believing in Dante after seeing Julio coming with roses and chocolates yesterday.

A woman is easily insecure on beauty. They can feel crazy if a woman is prettier close to their man, even if the woman has an official partner.

But men are different.

Men are more insecure about wealth. If a man is close to their woman, with an ugly face yet a very handsome purse, a man can feel blind jealousy. It had no exceptions even on Julio.

Even if Julio is the CEO of his own family-owned company, it does not make Julio can win from 'guardian' Narendra who gives diamonds to his girl. That's the Narendra diamond.

"Sister Julio."

Julio knows now they have to discuss Sergio but Julio also wants to discuss the necklace.

"Do you like this?" Julio pulls slowly Kalista's necklace, desperately wanting to jerk it off and then she throws it away. "Do you want me to love you more beautiful?"

Kalista shook his head, obeying Dante's warning. "I like this."

"Why? Don't you like me giving gifts?"

The girl handed him her hand. "Bracelet that way."

Julio's gaze turned cold while Kalista tried hard not to smile.

Hehe, he is not the Stone Director, so Kalista understands Julio is jealous. Jealousy is not good but it makes people jealous, the world is not fair.

"Rather than talking about it, we're going to Sergio now, right, brother? We have to talk about it."

Julio frowned, away from Kalista. The man sat in his chair, holding the mouse on the table. "I'm busy. It will be later."

"Ohya? Yow."

Calistas stick out their tongues silently.

Julio has always agreed that a woman's happiness can be bought with money. For example, you go to the flower shop to buy a bouquet of Roses, or stop by the cake shop to buy his favorite cake, but not everything can be that easy.

Today Julio attends a number of meetings and all the time he is still thinking what can match the Narendra diamond.

There aren't. In this country there is no. That's the price of their goods because it's only produced for them. It can't even be bought and isn't meant for the British royal family.

No, it should be able to be bought even if it's not for sale, right?

"Sir Julio—"

"I have a sudden business." Julio passed by Kalista who had been waiting for him from earlier. "You go home. We'll talk tomorrow."
