Mela held her own hand tightly. "Sorry, Sir. I didn't see Miss Clara."
"Aunt Tere!" noah shouted so loudly that Mela fell in shock.
Tidaj appears, once again Noah yells to Aunt Tere.
"Aunt Tere!"
From the direction of the room door towards the garden, Aunt Tere appeared while carrying Jou. Thought to be playing around and being teased, Jou instead laughed heartily as Aunt Tere ran quite fast.
"Sorry, Sir. What's up?"
Noah glanced at Jou who was still chuckling and looked at him. Noah did not return the laughter but rather melengos pretending not to know.
"Where is Clara? Do you know?" ask Noah.
"Oh, Miss Clara just started working, sir," explained Aunt Tere.
Noah paused for a moment while thinking something. "Where does he work?"
Noah no longer said. He went to carry his bag while taking a loaf of bread.
At first Noah thought he would not care, but somehow curiosity about anything concerning Clara wanted him to know immediately.
As the elevator doors opened, Noah was stunned and shocked. Noah rubbed his chest and glared when the elevator door opened there Betrand was standing there.
"Damn it!" pray Noah at that time. Still holding back the shock, Noah's one leg was lifted into Betrand's leg.
"I know you're there" Bentrand said. "And besides, how could you be so surprised?"
Noah was indifferent until he went to graze Betrand's body. Betrand, whose intention was to go down to the first floor, stopped and followed Noah.
"You got a problem?" betrand asked as soon as he entered Noah's study.
"Nothing," replied Noah briefly.
Answering was not there, but the look of a flat and upset face he could not hide.
"Anyways, how's your relationship with Clara going?"
Hearing that question, Noah's eyes turned stare intently.
"Don't ask about that. You don't see Noah's face pathetic?"
"They're okay, right?" betrand asked Angela in a whispering voice.
From under the table, Noah quickly climbed on the foot of the chair that Betrand was sitting on. Bentrand was shocked and clucked.
"I just want to know" Betrand said.
"I don't want to interfere. Please, you guys talk." After putting the file on the table, Angela chose to leave.
"Your mouth is like a woman!" sembur Noah later.
Betrand sat forward leaning his chest on the edge of the table and folded both hands there. "Hey! As your best friend, I want to know too."
"Personal business need not be divided" Noah explained. "From gossiping, you better explain how our hotel's development has progressed."
Betrand let out a rough breath. He was very curious about the relationship between the two of them, but the concerned did not want to share.
"Hey! Do you know?"
"Know what?" asked Noah reluctantly. "No need to switch topics."
"No. I think you should know about this."
"What?"
"Mia's here."
"Mia?" Noah rounded his eyes. Not because of shock, but because Noah forgot who Mia was. "Who's mom?"
"Geez!" Betrand patted his own forehead. "How did you forget about Mia?"
"Who is Mia?" Noah was reluctant to remember.
"Friends near Chloe."
Degh's! Noah remained silent. Noah almost forgot about Chloe. Last night's call even Noah ignored.
"Is Chloe back, too?" ask Betrand.
"I don't know" Noah replied briefly.
