Dusk In Moorea

HR#67

"Leon !" claire is happy when she sees Leon coming with Zack who looks to get her husband.

Leon stopped his steps. He snorted violently when he saw Claire walking closer to him.

"Would you come here ?" ask Leon cynically.

"I heard you were sick. Of course I'm here to see how you are, baby !" replied Claire who wanted to hold Leon's jaw but was immediately tepis by the young man.

"Go ! I don't need to be looked at by you !" said Leon.

"Can't you say a little more gently to your own future wife, Leon ?" ask Claire who is currently starting to get emotional because of Leon's abusive treatment.

"can't. The limit of my tenderness towards you is only up to here. You mind that ?" leon asked with a condescending smile.

"Of course I mind !" answer Claire in flames.

"Then, cancel this stupid wedding if you mind" Leon said.

"Help me up to the room, Zack !" pinta Leon to Zack later.

"All right !" zack's nods understood.

"I'm not done talking, Leon !" claire yelled inadmissive.

Leon didn't yell at Claire. The young man continued to walk by the papah by Zack up the stairs leading to his room.

"What's up ?" Duke Xander who heard the noise from the direction of the living room came to Claire who stood looking with her hands clenched tightly.

"Leon has gone too far Uncle ! She really didn't want this marriage in the slightest" Claire replied with a sobbing cry. This time, the beautiful woman was honest. He was crying from his heart. Leon's harsh treatment of him just now further confirmed that he had no meaning at all in the young man's eyes.

Duke Xander let out a weak sigh. Leon thinks it's been too much.

"Already ! No cry. Let Uncle take care of everything" Duke Xander said, patting Claire on the shoulder. Calm the girl who was still sobbing sadly.

"Until when are you gonna keep going like this, Leon ?" ask Zack concerned. The young man was standing next to Leon who was sitting on his bed.

"Come !" Leon took a breath. "Maybe forever I'll stay like this" said the brown-sweetened young man with a bitter laugh.

"Tell me, Zack ! Why is it so hard to just let Arumi go ? Why does it hurt so much just to love a woman like Arumi, Zack ?" leon again.

"Learn Leon ! Want to not want you to keep releasing Arumi. The girl is nice, but she's not meant to be with you" Zack said.

"But it feels too hard. I can't !" leon lirih said.

"If you really love her you have to let her go. This is all for Arumi's good. So that Duke no longer intruded on his life. Loving isn't always about having Leon ! There are times when taking off is much more beautiful for the happiness of our loved ones" said Zack at length.

Leon didn't speak anymore. The young man chose to lie down on his bed. Zack's words did not help him at all. Perhaps, if he fell asleep, all these nightmares would soon pass. Yep. Hope so.

Arumi's phone kept ringing nonstop. The girl let out a weak sigh then picked up the phone from a number she did not recognize at all.

"Who ?" ask Arumi to the point.

"It's me !"

The girl dropped her phone after the man told her what his purpose was to call Arumi. Immediately, Arumi snatched the bag that was on the nightstand and rushed over wanting to leave immediately. That person, wanted to invite him to meet right now.

"Aru ? Where are you going ?" Charlie who passed by him at the main door immediately reprimanded him.

"I-I want to go to the boutique. There's something I have to work on right away," he told a lie.

Charlie's forehead shriveled. In his lyrics the watch on his wrist with a look of wonder. It's been six and a half in the afternoon and Arumi wants to go to the boutique ?

"Is it not too late, Aru ?"

"It's okay," Arumi nodded. "There's Jill waiting for me there" Arumi continued.

"Should I take you ?" Charlie offered me a ride.

"No, Char ! My witness is already waiting in front," replied Arumi looking for an excuse.

"All right !" charlie hesitated.

Arumi immediately ran out of the mansion gate. He couldn't wait to see the person who called him.

About a 15-minute taxi ride away, Arumi arrives at a five-star restaurant. The girl took a deep breath, fixed the location of the bag slung on the shoulder and immediately entered the restaurant with steady steps.

Arumi circulated her gaze to every area of the restaurant. Looking for the whereabouts of people he wants to meet in this place. Shortly after, one of the servants came up to Arumi with a friendly smile.

"With Miss Arumi ?" ask the waiter.

"Yes. Right !" arumi smiled.

"Let's come with me !" The servant said while turning his body. She walked gracefully with Arumi following her from behind.

The waiter takes Arumi to a special VVIP room. A separate room from the crowded restaurant area. He then opened the door in front of him and allowed Arumi to enter.

"Please, Miss ! Sir is waiting for you" said the waiter.

"Thank you," nodded Arumi and entered immediately. After Arumi entered, the maid closed the door again and rushed away from there.

Inside the room, the girl could already see the man who wanted to meet her. A man he's only ever seen at Mr.'s party. Kovalev was on Moorea Island a few months ago. And, this is the first time for Arumi to come face to face with a Duke Xander who is said to seem flat and scary. The father of the man Arumi loved.

"Sit down !" duke Xander's orders.

Arumi obeyed the man's words. He sat right in front of Duke Xander who had no expression. The girl's eyes defied full of confidence to Duke Xander's neutrals without the slightest fear. Making Duke Xander slightly impressed and raising next to his eyebrows.

"What do you want to see me ?" asked Arumi coldly.

Duke Xander has not answered. He was currently pouring wine on Arumi's glass then onto his own glass.

"I want you to go back to your country !" duke Xander said after putting the wine bottle back in place.

"Why ?" arumi asked still with the look of her eyes that drew sharply towards Duke Xander.

"You don't need to know what the reason is," Duke Xander replied flatly.

Arumi was silent for a few seconds. The girl smiled cynically with both hands clenched tightly under the table.

"Then I will gladly refuse your orders, Duke," said the girl loudly.
