Chapter 13
"After he left, it turned out that he had not gone far from the store with a bag lying on the ground not far from him who was calling with his back to me. I picked it up, I think he forgot if his bag had dropped because he was busy with his phone. As I approached to remind her, I heard that she told the man to ruin my life if it was necessary to break my legs so as not to walk again, because I can still make my own happiness. Because my broken face isn't enough to make me suffer." Reveal Lyn with tears.
Milo was still frozen as if holding his breath.
As for Edgar, he clenched his hands until his fingers turned white. His head was really boiling.
Milo, who knew Edgar's reaction, grabbed him by the shoulder to remind him.
"After learning that Shakila was the one who told the man, we had a little quarrel until Shakila said her hatred to me. The reason was because I was always lucky, she felt that I always showed her my luck without understanding her feelings. He also wants my destiny to be under his feet."
Lyn tried the story with a hiccuping voice.
"The reason I'm afraid to see Shakila, is because I'm not ready to deal with her yet as I enjoy living a quiet life over my current job without a shadow of Shakila's evil. Because I haven't had any strength to fight it."
Hearing that Milo sharpened his gaze on Lyn then asked.
"Sister Lyn. So, when you suddenly came to offer to help us become a substitute designer, was it your plan to get our special attention?"
Edgar's views never escaped Lyn. He is indeed in charge of seeing all of Lyn's body movements if anything is suspicious, although Milo is also a good observation, but Edgar is only on guard if anything is missed.
"Yes right."
Edgar and Milo were holding their breath but they tried to remain calm and relaxed waiting for the continuation.
Lyn told the story while continuing to sob non-stop.
"On the day of the quarrel after being content to mourn my fate, I hurried to the company to work as a cleaning service. Coincidentally that day the cleaning part of the CEO's room was sick, so I took his place during his illness. Just as I entered the CEO's room, I overheard you guys discussing. At first I was indifferent to your conversation I thought it was about company business. But when I heard about the replacement designer and the CEO needing it quickly, the instant the memory of Shakila's hate words rang in my head, I was really emotional recalling that. I don't know where a thought came from that this was a great opportunity for me. If I could help the CEO, then the rewards would be huge and I would plan various ways to gain the trust of the CEO, hoping to get special attention bit by bit until I became strong. I who already have no one and have nothing, only from there do I have the opportunity to make a change of my destiny."
Hearing that Edgar and Milo let out a sigh of relief, because it turned out his guess was wrong. But they are still not satisfied before knowing Lyn has nothing to do with the business of Paris Fashion.
"When you entered the company did you know about Paris Fashion?" Ask Milo.
"I don't know. I only found out the day I volunteered for not overhearing your conversation." Answer Lyn flat.
"So, why do you have to work as a cleaning service? Aren't you very talented in the field of fashion designers. You even have a thriving online store."
Lyn heard him understand the meaning of Milo's question. Lyn who is under suspicion is very familiar with the authority of Milo who is trying to ensure the smooth running of his company's business.
"Because I need money for college. College takes a lot of money for a derelict person like me. Aunty Sari's salary wasn't enough for my tuition. I made an online venture because I wanted to rise from the slump after being chased out by my family. Besides that I also did not feel good to have to hitchhike at the house of Aunt Sari even though I helped her in the laundry, but still it was not enough to repay all her kindness. I made that effort actually to give him his life to be enough."
'This 'Girl is really the wingless angel figure' inner Milo.
"Then what about all your cases. Is that really you?" Ask Milo.
"No. I didn't know how the case worked, but all of a sudden all the accusations and evidence were pointing right at me. Now, I just realized that my bad luck started with my broken face. All the unfortunate events and the various accusations and some cases came after my face was broken."
After she finished telling the story, Lyn suddenly leaned back in her seat slowly closing her eyes. Lyn was so exhausted from crying all day, not to mention with her inner wounds that were reopened due to meeting Shakila.
Edgar was surprised to see Lyn who suddenly closed her eyes. He immediately approached Lyn to make sure nothing bad happened to Lyn.
"He fell asleep after crying. Could he be exhausted after a long cry?" Edgar said softly while looking at Milo.
Then Edgar held Lyn and immediately brought her to his room so that Lyn could rest comfortably.
Milo, who was still in the study, was silent with a face that was difficult to interpret.
The next day Lyn has started to work in the CEO's room accompanied by Lily.
Actually, Lyn's job is just to draw a design, Lily will make the clothes. Though when viewed from his talent that is a designer, of course Lyn can also sew and make a variety of expensive clothes that.
But Edgar did not allow Lyn to stay focused on thinking the work to be made by him, and also so that Lily get a job because Lily is a talented orphan who has nothing. Hearing that Lyn complies.
Edgar knows how to use Lyn's tenderness to make excuses. In fact, Edgar only wants Lyn beside him with a fit state so that it can be his spirit medicine if tired hit. (Wash that eye, hihi *horse grin)
"exc, Lyn. Yesterday you said the reason you work as a cleaning service is to pay for college. So after the day you passed out until now, you haven't left for college yet?" Edgar asked who had started omitting his formal language to Lyn.
"Hm. I don't think about college anymore. Besides wherever I am everyone will mock and bully me including on campus. My trauma of bullying and persecution is still in my heart. And also, it looks like I can't afford the cost." Lyn replied while biting her lower lip slightly down.
Edgar saw Lyn biting her lips into a fit of anxiety. The mind is eager to feel the lips that are being bitten by that little. But Edgar quickly took control.
"So it's just because of the cost?" Ask Edgar.
Lyn nodded slowly.
"If so, you can start your college again without the need to think about the costs and bullyan people at Mellon University. Because that university is my university. You'll be safe there. Tomorrow Milo will take care of everything." Edgar answered with a look that could not be separated from Lyn's face.
Hearing that Lyn was deeply moved. Lyn unconsciously hugged Edgar. Edgar was very surprised, but he just kept quiet and slowly put Lyn on his body even tighter. Edgar smiled thinly enjoying that reflex hug.
Suddenly there was the sound of Deheman blowing away the warm atmosphere.
"Ekhem."
