Dragon Drips

Chapter 23 The Trap

Arsen scrunched his forehead when he saw the secretary in the doorway he had just opened. The girl seemed to be smiling sweetly with a tray filled with a glass of coffee in her hand.

With a slow motion tucked her hair slowly and still maintain her smile on her lips.

"What's wrong? why are you back?"

"Sorry, sir. I think you need a cup of coffee to accompany work. I see your work piled up today. So I took the initiative to make you a cup of coffee before I left."

The girl stepped in without waiting to be invited by Arsen. The young man increasingly felt strange with the behavior of his secretary who just a month ago worked it.

With a slow step the girl named Nana approached Arsen's desk and put her coffee also with a slow movement.

"Other times there's no need to make me a drink before I ask. But, oh, thank you."

Arsen looked at the confused Nana who was unmoved in her place. The girl was still standing with a smile that was still offended on her lips.

"What else is it? it's not done, so please go back to your room."

"I just want to make sure you drink the coffee first sir, I'm afraid it feels less fitting." Speak with a soft voice.

"No need, I'll have a drink. Now please go back to your room." Arsen was slightly suspicious of Nana's unusual gestures.

"But, sir."

"I said go back to your room, Na. Do I need to repeat it many times?" Arsen slightly raised his tone.

"All right, sir, excuse me. Don't forget to drink your coffee." He said softly with a smile and slipped his hair back behind his ears.

After Nana's departure, Arsen immediately closed the door again. The young man shook his head inexhaustibly with Nana's behavior which he thought was strange.

Leo, who had been out of the bathroom a few minutes ago, approached the sister's desk where the steaming cup of coffee was there. His instincts said something was wrong with the coffee but he did not know what.

He stared at the drink in pitch black with its distinctive smell was sticky. Leo dipped his ring finger in the direction of the cup where there was a great supply of Gara perfectly circular.

The ring with white eyes suddenly turned purplish. Leo widened his eyes while looking at the older brother who was now equally surprised.

"Sister, lock the door for a second."

Quickly, Arsen immediately locked the door and returned to see what the younger brother was doing. Again Leo dipped his ring finger and back the gemstone in his ring changed color.

"Who makes this coffee, brother?"

"Nana, she's my new secretary. I just worked about a month ago. What's up?"

"Something's wrong with this coffee, brother. Look, the jewel's changing color. This ring is a noble gift. He told me to always take care of the prince. Who would have thought this ring was even useful to help sister for the first time."

"But what is Nana's motive for doing this?" Arsen was completely inexhaustible. He rarely even interacts with the girl if it's not about work.

"We'll know later, brother. Now we better follow the game. I think he'll be back in a minute to see if you're drinking that coffee or not."

Arsen nodded. He lifted the cup containing coffee to the bathroom and throw the contents in half separate the other half and make it look as if he had drunk.

After beckoning the brother to open the door. Leo went back to hiding, this time the young man chose to be behind the sofa. Stay there to see what happens next.

Derrick spread his gaze looking for the figure of Leo who never appeared. She was afraid something would happen to her best friend considering that Leo is an ordinary human being. Unlike him or Ario who has a high level of sensitivity. They can smell something in a rarity that is still far enough to make it easier for them to avoid danger that is threatening.

Seeing the anxiety of the prince, Ario certainly did not stay silent. He moved closer and whispered a little, saying that Leo was fine at this time even though he did not know for sure.

Ario just wants to make Derrick focus on his goal of meeting and cooperation with foreign entrepreneurs is soon completed. Although only temporary, but in accordance with the direct orders from Gara. The company must grow rapidly before the time will Arcila who is in control of all his business.

Nana smiled when she saw Arsen open the door for her. The girl seemed to have added perfume until it smelled a little stinging in Arsen's smell. If he doesn't remember what Leo's planning to do, Arsen may ask Nana to get out of the room.

"What's up, Na?" Arsen chose to sit on the single sofa. The young man looked at Nana's face.

But his actions did not make Nana tremble. The girl was getting more courageous and challenged. Especially when glimpsed coffee cups that have lived half it makes his smile more fluffy.

"I just want to make sure that you're drinking coffee, mas." She was embarrassed but got closer to Arsen.

Arsen again scrunched his forehead. Nana has even changed her calling from Pak as usual to Mas.

"Why are you calling me, my. You usually call, sir?" Arsen pretended to massage his temple slowly.

"What's wrong, itung itung while studying mas. We'll be married soon." Nana said confidently.

"Married?" Arsen returned to parroting but one hand was still faithful to massage his temple.

While behind the long sofa Leo held back his laughter. He knew now, the girl who was now next to the older brother was trying to get Arsen. Because of his careless nature made the girl reckless in the end.

"Yes, mas. We are getting married soon!! you must be uncomfortable right now? it's okay, there I am. You can do anything, I'm ready." Nana sitting herself in Arsen's lap made the young man shocked.

Coinciding with that the door of the room opens showing the beautiful figure of Arcila there. Her eyes poked sharply at the sofa where Nana was draping her hands with a smile on her lips feeling victorious.

With a reflex, Arsen immediately stood up from his seat making the unprepared Nana become a whimper before falling to the floor.

Arcila was still standing there. Both of his eyes warmed up but only briefly because the mark on his forehead allowed him to control himself when he found out what was really going on. The beautiful girl smiled cynically before closing the door and then asking Leo to get out of her hiding place.

Nana who was surprised to fall back wide when she saw someone coming out from behind the sofa. The girl tried to ask Arsen for help to stand up but the young man no longer cared about her. Arsen focused on looking at Cila's face. The beautiful girl stared at him and chose to sit in Arsen's oversized chair.
