Chasing Rainbows

Geoffrey Change

Geoffrey releases Paula's hand that coils around her neck and makes Paula very upset. If not for Geoffrey's wealth and popularity, he would not have continued the relationship he had for seven years.

"Why are you ignoring me so much, baby?" paula asked looking at her lover with a sharp look.

"So, I don't want to pretend with you. I'm tired of responding to your attitude, too." Geoffrey's reply left Paula stuck.

Paula's been blackmailing Geoffrey all along. He dated Geoffrey just for his fame. But now he was very unexpected Geoffrey expressed his saturation towards him.

"What do you mean, baby?" ask Paula.

"We've done our pretense, Paula" Geoffrey replied firmly.

"No, hon. I'm not pretending to have this relationship with you. Please don't disconnect us." pinta Paula recalls her career that has skyrocketed lately and several job contract offers that are lining up.

"I understand you very well, Paula. You only think of your own pleasure." Geoffrey said loudly.

"I'm sorry, honey. All right, tell me what do you want?" ask Paula to give up.

"I will change according to your wishes as long as you don't break our relationship." Paula said.

Now Paula has completely lowered her self-esteem in front of Geoffrey. Of course he did it only for his own sake.

"Then leave me here. I still want to focus on the workers tonight." said Geoffrey, who still has pity on Paula.

Paula leaves Geoffrey and leaves her room. Tonight, it seems awkward to Geoffrey who continues to dwell in his study.

"Theodore." call Paula who sees Theodore still outside the mansion.

"What's wrong Miss?" theo asked as he stepped his foot into the Mansion.

"Why do I think Geoffrey is so different tonight? He looked very busy in his study." asked Paula. "Aren't you usually the one who takes care of all the company's business?" Paula continued to storm Theo with various questions.

"really?" ask Theo back. "Mr Geoffrey seemed to need me." jcap Theo walked straight into Geoffrey's study.

Paula is now increasingly upset to see Theo who also ignored her. Since finding Theo stranded and injured at the time, Paula puts feelings on Theo. Moreover, Theo looks more handsome and macho compared to Geoffrey.

Unfortunately Theo had nothing at that time. Theo's affairs were well taken care of by Geoffrey and Theo returned the favor by being Geoffrey's confidant for six years. Paula who is more concerned about her career also put aside her feelings for Theo. But he also did not fully establish a relationship with Geoffrey.

Time and again Theo is seduced and framed by Paula to fulfill his desires. Unfortunately Theo never falls into Paula's trap because Theo is really very careful.

...***...

"Can I help you, Mr Geoffrey?" ask Theo who is now in Geoffrey's study.

"Emmm, this is Theo. I want you to teach me how to manage the company well." replied Geoffrey.

Geoffrey's reply left Theo very surprised. Just this time his parents asked to learn to manage the company. All this time, he only relied on his assistant. Before Theo, Geoffrey's company was very small and nothing. But after the arrival of Theo, now the company is very advanced to be able to work with GA Corporation, a famous company in Germany.

"It is with great pleasure that Mr. Geoffrey" replied Theodore. "But you should rest tonight, sir, considering the event on this day is very crowded and certainly makes you tired" explained Theodore.

"Alright Theo, I know you must be very tired" Geoffrey replied. "Let's get some rest." take Geoffrey and then embrace Theo's shoulder.

"True Miss Paula, Mr. Geoffrey is very different tonight." - Theo.

Theo kept wondering in his heart what made his Master change drastically tonight. He sorted through Geoffrey's agenda from morning to evening to find out the cause of Geoffrey's drastic changes.

Morning to noon, Geoffrey still looks as usual according to Theo. But after coming home from the meeting, Geoffrey started to be a little different.

Theo was in his room and immediately cleaned his body. After that, he poured down his body while collecting the agenda puzzle today scattered.

He recalls Mr. Geoffrey's request to help him get Zella.

But immediately Theo's heart pounded and his chest tightened again. He tried to slow his breathing and neutralize his heartbeat.

"Maybe I'm too tired today" Theo's inner voice began to close his eyes.

...***...

Zella who just arrived at the Mansion immediately parked her car and entered her room. He immediately spread his body and covered himself. Paula's words were still ringing in Zella's ears, making it very difficult for Zella to close her eyes.

Until the early hours of the morning, Zella was just starting to close her eyes.

In the morning, Granny is a little suspicious that Zella hasn't come out of her room. Usually Zella is getting ready to run in the morning. But this time Zella hasn't been seen coming out of her room.

Finally Granny climbs into Zella's room and goes straight inside because her door is unlocked.

Zella is still seen behind the covers making Granny a little worried about the state of Zella. Granny grabs Zella's blanket and holds her granddaughter's forehead.

Heat.

"Zella has a fever." murmured Granny who immediately looked for a thermometer in Zella's medicine box. Granny checks Zella's temperature and calls the family doctor.

"Granny." Zella opened her eyes and flicked her blanket.

"Where were you from last night, baby to make you have a fever like this?" granny asked with a worried look on her face.

"I just got out for a second Granny. Maybe it's just because I'm never out for the night." replied Zella.

"I'll be fine, Granny. Don't worry too much about me." said Zella as she tried to sit down. Unfortunately Zella was not strong enough to wake up because her head was also very dizzy.

"Don't force yourself, Zella. Lie down, Doctor Brian will be here soon." said Granny.

Zella finally complies with Granny. Without waiting for long, Doctor Brian had already arrived at the Mansion and immediately entered Zella's room.

"Hi Zella, I'm so surprised to hear you're sick" said Dr. Brian, sitting examining Zella.

"You have a high fever, Zella. What complaint?" ask Dr. Brian to Zella.

"My head is just a little dizzy, Doctor." replied Zella who was still curled up in the blanket.

Brian immediately gave Zella the medicine. "Is there anything that really bothers you, Zella?" ask Dr. Brian.

Zella just nodded and looked at him blankly.

"Tell me, about the cause of the memory loss, Doctor." pinta Zella later.

"Hemmm, your problem seems complicated. But just calm down. I'll help you with that. I'll explain it when you're cured." said Dr. Brian.

"All right, I'll see you later, doctor." replied Zella.

"Don't forget to eat breakfast and take medicine. Tell me about your progress every hour. I'll come back later in the afternoon to check on you, Zella." said Dr. Brian as he left Zella.

"Thanks Doctor, we will give you news about the development of Zella's condition" Granny said as she escorted Dr. Brian out of the room.

After Dr. Brian exits Zella's room, Zella's housekeeper brings Zella breakfast.

"Aunt Terra, please tell Vanya I'm not going to the office today" Zella said.

"Well Miss." replied Aunt Terra who directly carried out the orders from Zella.
