The surrounding atmosphere turned gripping when it knew who I was dealing with. I was confused as to what to answer because we were definitely on the opposite side. However, I was already caught, so I had to find a way to cover up what I was doing. I rotated my brain quickly, and I found a natural way to cover my axes. I went back to the show in front of him.
"I accidentally saw Mr. Andreas while coming out of the toilet, so I followed him. But after finding out she met the madam and spoke in the backyard, I waited for her. Until finally you come," I said reasoned.
I saw him nod but didn't believe my words. It wasn't really my heart pounding because I was worried that she would tell Zea what I was doing. Zea could have known if I was on Jackson's side and the problem would have been more complicated.
"We're ahead, Cecilia. The dish table is prepared." He then took me to the front page.
"Em, okay."
Because of the awkward situation after being caught by him, inevitably I fulfilled his invitation. I left Zea and Andreas talking on the backyard porch, walking with this man. I saw his hand like it was holding my arm.
Jeez .. Why do I always get caught by him, huh? Am I too old to be a spy?
My heart felt like it was going to be dislodged when I found out that someone had caught me. Surely I will be the Liandra family moons if I get caught eavesdropping on Zea's talk. Knowing for himself how Zea was, he easily played a hand. Maybe because he has a lot of money, he can do everything. Everything is easy and nothing to worry about.
A few minutes later...
I was invited to the front yard of this large house, and it turned out that in a short time it was neatly arranged table dishes with various types of food. I also really want to taste the pancakes that are there. But I thought again about eating it. Because now you have to eat more vegetables and fruits, not cakes that contain lots of sugar.
The man in front of me poured me a glass of wine. He then gave the wine to me. "You came alone?" tanyanya stood facing me.
I'm nodding.
"I thought you came with Jackson. Then why don't I just pick it up?" He felt sorry that I came alone.
You crocodile, who wants to come with you.
He was so confident that I would come with him. If I was told to choose, I better come alone. I don't like it, so I feel uncomfortable being around it.
"Cecilia."
"Yes, Sir?"
"You're so beautiful today." She praised me.
I smiled in response, as he watched me from head to toe. I don't know why I feel amused about being noticed by this middle-aged man. Implied from his eyes if he is very interested in me.
It's Hadden. Again I was caught by him while eavesdropping on the conversation. This guy in a business uniform without a tie looks everywhere. Moreover, I was wearing a knee-length dress, she seemed to be curious about what was inside.
"Thank you, sir." I just smile at him.
He sipped his wine while continuing to watch over me. I saw that many close relatives had arrived. Some of them approached Hadden and asked him to shake hands. I myself just stayed in place while holding the wine glass that Hadden gave me. I didn't dare drink it because I remembered the doctor's message.
"Cecilia, I'm on my own right now" he said, after finishing shaking hands with the incoming relatives.
"Oh, huh?" I just responded briefly.
He's lookingat me. "I think my age has to close my heart" he said, who knows what he means. I don't care either.
I take a moment's look. My eyes are looking for where Jackson is. I'm afraid he misunderstood me for talking to Hadden. Know for yourself how Jackson. He is a typical acute jealous man. So as much as I can keep his mind off the things that trigger jealousy. I don't want to lose Jackson.
After feeling that he had not yet arrived, I returned to Hadden pretending to gulp some wine. "Where is Mr Hadden's wife?" I tried to get information about him.
Hadden smile. He was indeed a gentle man who did not just act. We just stood facing each other without touching. He kept his attitude even though his eyes hinted at something else for me.
"I'm divorced, Cecilia. It's been a long time." He put on a sorry face.
"Divorce?" manya curious.
"So now?" I want to know more.
"I'm still alone, haven't found the right one. Besides, my age isn't suitable for teenage girls, is it?" He laughs at himself.
I realized that this was a good opportunity for me to ask how old he was. "What is the age of Master?"
"Fourty-seven years," he answered immediately. "The girls out there really like my money. Not with me." He was like confiding in me.
I was surprised to find out how old he really was. It turns out Hadden's age is almost five heads. It is only fitting that the wrinkles on his face cannot be covered. He turned out to be old.
"Sir, you are a distinguished man. Surely many women want to live with you." I tried to strengthen his heart when he was lazy.
Hadden looked down with a smile. He lifted his face and saw me. "Do you want to be the last?" the question that made me shock for a moment.
What?!! I'm crazy I want to be with him. Better with Jackson. Even if he has a lot of money, I don't want to. Besides, I'm already in love with that grim-faced man. Yeah, who else if not Jackson Baldev.
"Haha, Mr. Hadden is too much of a joke." I responded to his words as a joke.
"Cecilia, which side are you on?" it was his sudden asking that made my heart beat fast for a moment.
Hadden is very clever to play with people's hearts. He said this and that, but at the end of the day asked me which side I was on. He seemed to want to dig deeper information about me.
I smiled and replied, "Who pays me more is my master, Mr. Hadden." I'll show you that I'm still the old Cecilia.
Hadden smiled meaningfully. His hands seemed to want to touch my hair that was left untouched. He then brought his face closer to these ears, whispering to me.
"I'll pay you with everything I have if you want to be with me" he said, teasing me.
My heart was pounding more and more because of this offer. Seriously or jokingly, I don't know. Hadden really wanted me.
"Oh, here it seems."
Suddenly I heard that voice. A man's voice sucks but I miss it. It was Jackson Baldev, coming at the right time. Hadden immediately kept his distance from me.
"Mr Jackson just came?" Hadden was seen making small talk to Jackson who walked up to us.
Jackson silence. He put on his grim face and turned to look at me. "Cecilia, you're ahead of your boss." He said jutek to me.
As I realized the meaning of his words. "Sorry, Sir." Immediately excuse me from the presence of both.
Hadden kept watching me, and Jackson saw me go. It felt like I had to take a deep breath after being caught Jackson chatting at close range with Hadden. He could punish me later. And the punishment is not so much I like.
Why do I like his grim face now, huh?
Don't know why, the cynical and jutek aura of Jackson I liked instead. It felt like he wanted to hit it and then make it float into space. But baby, time is not possible so I have to leave before him.
Step into the table and sit on the chair provided. I sat alone among the close relatives of the Liandra family who had arrived. I swiped the phone and played it for a while. Time before dinner.
.........
...Hadden...
...Jackson's...
