Ceo Galak That's My Husband Candidate

87. Uncovered

Keiko is shocked to find herself in a room that seems so unfamiliar to her. His head was still spinning feeling dizzy leftover last night. Although aware the place is foreign but Keiko is very understanding who the owner of the perfume whose fragrance spreads throughout the room. ‘Marvel? Yeah, true! It's Marvel's perfume!’ while massaging his forehead which still feels swirling, Keiko went to sit on the bed.

But when the blanket covering his body moved down revealed the part of his chest that was not covered by a thread. Keiko looked down at a part of her body, her face fixated her mouth gaping in disbelief. To make sure Keiko took off the blanket and looked at some of her body again. ‘No! How...how can I not wear my clothes? Even where are my underwear??’ Keiko threw her eyes around. On the floor she found her last night clothes and some men's clothes. ‘Wait! A coat? This shirt... didn't Marvel wear it last night?’

“Ngh!” the shrill sound of waking from her sleep distracts Keiko.

The woman turned her head quickly to the source of the sound. Right next to him he saw something behind a blanket that looked mountainous. In his mind, Keiko could not believe that Marvel was behind the blanket. But from the scent of perfume, Keiko is very sure that the one behind the blanket is Marvel. ‘But... why can I be here with him?’ Keiko slowly opened the blanket that covered her body.

The man was sleeping on his stomach, bare-chested just as Keiko was not wearing a single piece of clothing. “Mmmhhh!” Marvel moved around his body, his eyes slowly opening and widening as he looked at the shadow of Keiko's face before his eyes. “You're up?”

Keiko was still in disbelief and found herself and Marvel in the same bed without any clothes on. “Ma.marvel... what, what happened s.all night?” said staggered.

***

They sat face to face with the table in the middle as a barrier between the two of them.

Dressed in Marvel's oversized clothes, Keiko sat down while enjoying a warm cup of tea.

While Marvel was wearing a white T-shirt with slightly wet hair the rest of the shower was also enjoying his favorite cup of coffee. “So... You don't remember what happened last night?” Marvel started the conversation.

Occasionally Keiko glanced at him but when Marvel returned her gaze the woman reflexes averted her eyes. “Hmm!” Keiko shook her head. “My action stops until we chat in the bar.. After that, I don't remember! Wait Marvel... did I say something weird?”

“No!”

Keiko took a long breath. “Thank God... I'm afraid to say strange things to you!”

Marvel silently watched Keiko's facial expression and tried hard to digest what the woman was thinking. “I just remember you saying that I should stay by your side.”

“He?” Keiko rounded her eyes.

“Yes, you don't want to lose a guy like me. And you asked me to call off his engagement. There is one more thing happening while inside elevator–,”

“Wait! Waitaminute! Wait for Marvel... Are you sure I said that?”

A moment of silence before Marvel nodded confirming Keiko's words. “I carried you to the car because you were drunk and couldn't walk. And again.. You also kissed my lips while inside–,”

“Haa??? A.i kissed you?” Keiko blushed, silencing her lips with both hands. It seems hysterical to know what he has told Marvel.

“But... there was so much more to it than that, last night when I brought you home to my apartment, you got into bed then.. tease me.”.

“What?!! I... did all that? So, last night we... You and I really didn't sleep together?”

“Umm!” Marvel hesitated. “Sleep together.. Not only sleeps in the real sense, we also” Marvel hesitates when it comes to continuing its speech.

“Why? We... do we do it?” Keiko.

“Iya! You and me, we both did it last night!”

“Ah, my goodness! How can you...why don't you stop me?”

“I, sorry Keiko!”

“No! It's also my fault, you don't have to apologize.” Given that Marvel will be engaged to Bunga the day after tomorrow, Keiko also tried to make Marvel not to think too much about what happened between them. “Marvel. I hope you don't think too seriously about it. You focus enough on your engagement party later!” after finishing the drink, Keiko said goodbye. “Sorry Marvel, but it looks like I have to leave soon. Don't feel overwhelmed by all this... Just relax, assume nothing happens between us, okay? So you take it easy.” Keiko throws a smile before exiting Marvel's apartment.

The man was still sitting at his original place. Marvel is shocked to hear Keiko's request which instantly makes her feel bad about being a man. “Why should I forget it?” Marvel seemed to not accept the love of Keiko, as if making him immediately disappointed because it does not match what he imagined.

Marvel is seen getting out of the car and into the house. But after arriving inside he was shocked by the state of the house that was falling apart. “What happened, Bi?” ask a housekeeper.

“Uhmm, Young master..At the moment it seems like Master is in a big rage towards the Madam in the living room.”.

Without waiting long Mervel immediately met them. “Stop Daddy!” marvel exclaimed in a controlled tone of voice when he saw his father almost slap a slap at Laura.

His hand was glued in the air to hear the voice of his son who had just arrived, not wanting to have a dispute also with Marvel the middle-aged man chose to leave behind Laura who seemed to be crying sobbing. “Women's musicians don't know themselves that! Tell her that she does not leave this house immediately, I will forcefully drive her out to drag her down the street like a madman!!” he said then left them both.

Marvel walked up to Laura who was sitting on the floor with messy hair. Just as the room was also scattered, many broken items splattered on the floor and some papers were all around Laura. The man leaned over to pick up a piece of paper that was beside his foot. After reading for a moment the contents written on the paper, Marvel turned his gaze to Laura. “I know that this will surely be known by Dad sooner or later!” he said he was calm without holding back the slightest anger towards Laura, showing how he had known it long before his father.

“Marvel? You... You know about all this?” Laura was surprised, her red and wet eyes fixed on Marvel. Yes, Laura was caught embezzling company funds. With an alibi he made a report that he used the money to invest in various businesses. And it turned out that when her husband's suspicions proved that all the efforts were bodong or subterfuge Laura her husband immediately expelled and divorced Laura.

“Yes, I knew this a long time ago Ma'am. But I kept quiet because I thought Mom was going to change, so I purposely gave Mom a chance to hope you would stop doing it, but it turns out you're going so far that you know this.” Marvel was not angry at all, but he was a little disappointed because of his mother's attitude. “This is also my fault, if at that time I immediately stop you. Sorry Mom, I'll try to talk to dad so as not to kick you out of the house.” Despite the ugliness that Laura did, Marvel is a dutiful child she loves Laura like a real mother.

“It's okay baby, maybe everything should be like this. Sorry for being such a bad mom all along, I also know that your dad will never change his mind. He has also signed his divorce papers.”

Marvel was surprised, but he could not ask his father to change his decision because the middle-aged man always thought a thousand times before making the final decision and finally any decision he would never regret it.

“Then...Have you thought about everything if this happened, Mom? If you want you can stay in my apartment!”

Laura stood up and rubbed her wet cheek, smiling at Marvel despite knowing it was very painful for her. “No need darling, I know where Mom should go. I hope you'll never think that my love for you is fake. Please don't ever hate Mom!” there's nothing else Laura can say to Marvel. He chose to leave the room.

Laura smiled and then said. “Sorry, maybe Mom is too upset for you, but I hope you will live well Marvel!” his hand gently rubbed the cheeks of his stepson with great affection. Whether what Laura thinks, is really her feelings for Marvel are sincere or just the same mask she used to get her husband.

But Marvel believes that Laura truly loves herself, only that she doesn't understand one thing. “It's not about me, Mom! It's about Flowers.”

Laura was surprised to round her eyes. “Marvel you?”

“I heard your conversation in my apartment lobby back then! Why can you do this to your real daughter? You can love me but... why can you be unfair to her?”

"What is your father–,"

"No, Mom! I didn't tell dad about the flower. It's just between us."

There was not a word that Laura could say back then. His hand that he had used to wipe Marvel's face was fixated in the air, then slowly moved down feeling inappropriate to touch the man who always thought he was a good man.

“Did if you divorced Dad, the relationship between us also ended as a child and Mom?”

“Marvel?” Laura never imagined Marvel would throw that question at her.

“Because of me... plan to propose him the day after tomorrow!”

It's time for Flowers and Juliet to spend their time at Mr. Rodrigo's house. Her father's gradually improving health made Bunga happy because he could see Juliet joking with her Grandpa.

While he was sitting on a bench daydreaming to see them from a distance. But his mind is disturbed when he recalls Davien's response after learning that he will be engaged to Marvel. “Why I was upset when I saw Davien's reaction was fine, when I said I was getting engaged to Marvel. Uhmm... But what do I expect from her? Uh! It seems I'm too confident that Davien still holds feelings for me, but if he still loves me, he should have said not to accept Marvel. Argh! Why am I so frustrated like this!!” Flowers muttered in annoyance, not sparing him jerking his feet like a child.

“Nona alright?” antonio suddenly came from behind.

“Jesus!!! You surprise me!” The flowers almost jumped from the chair.

Gh! “Sorry Miss, I didn't mean to surprise you. Please.” Antonio gave the phone to Bunga after previously raising the call.

“Uhm.. from whom?”

“Your secretary said there was something important she had to say.”

“Oh, thank you!” Flowers take over the phone from Antonio's hands.

“Uncle! Come come play with us!” juliet from a distance. Without waiting for long Antonio immediately approached them.

“Really? Uhmm... well I'll see it later.” He said to the secretary across the street. The flower keeps the phone away from the ear and calls out to Juliet. “Juliet? Can I ask you a minute, baby?”

The girl ran closer. “Iya Mom, what can Juliet help?”

Gently Flower rubbed her cheeks, “Go to the room, please get a laptop that is in bed, okay?” not to forget Bunga gave his daughter a kiss on the forehead before the child left.

“Ready, Boss!”

The smiling flower then continued their conversation that had stalled.

***

Juliet had arrived in front of her mother's room, after opening the door the tiny foot stepped inside. His eyes were immediately fixed on the laptop on the bed according to his mother's words.

Not yet had the adorable short and tiny fingers touched the laptop, Juliet's attention was diverted to the dresser after hearing a strange noise emanating from it.

Clataks! Clataks!

Juliet glued silently staring at the small box on the table.

Clataks! Clataks!

The sound comes from the box, instead of being afraid Juliet who is still all curious made curious about something in it. Slowly her feet stepped until she finally stopped right in front of the dresser.

Wait for a few moments and no more strange sounds were heard. But when her hand moved to pick up the box, Juliet was surprised by her voice that suddenly sounded again and was getting louder until it caused a small movement but strangely her voice this time did not want to stop.

Clataks! Clataks! Clataks! Clataks! Clataks!

More curious about the contents of the box, Juliet managed to reach him. Just as his hand touched the surface of the small box shaped like a silver-colored treasure box, the sound disappeared instantly. “Waaahh!” Juliet was amazed to see the strangeness, her mind floated imagining as if she was in a fantasy world like in most movies.

“Can I open it?” juliet muttered. “What box is this?” Juliet never saw her mother have the box. Of course because Bunga kept it in Rodrigo's house all this time.

Juliet threw a suspicious look around, like a child with all her curiosity so great at whatever she saw. Once again make sure no one will see him open the box. “True, just want to see it... I definitely won't be mad!” Juliet smiled happily, then said as if she was crying out for permission to her mother open the box.

“Mother can Juliet see the contents of this box? Can you, right?” hihi. he said softly accompanied by a crisp laugh at the end of the sentence.

Can't wait to see the contents, Juliet opened the silver box that was in her hand. “We see... there is a treasure what's in it!” juliet's expression was so crisp, too excited impatient to see the contents.
