"Look at some of your wounds there are still many that have not dried, Aleta. You better rest at home now."

"Actually I feel bored at home constantly, Mrs Amanda. So I decided to go to the office."

"Oh well if that's what you want, please do my job at the table. I haven't finished chatting with my guest."

Aleta then approached the table and began to do Amanda's work. Amanda turned her eyes back to Inara and Abimana.

"So you're planning on going to London?"

"Yes, we called Kenzo."

Hearing the name Kenzo called, Aleta began to eavesdrop on Amanda's conversation.

"So you talked to Kenzo, Abi?"

"Yes, we know each other. He was working on the final task along with what was his name, Inara?"

"Cleo, Abi. He's Vallen's son and the Word."

"Oh yeah Cleo, so he's Doctor Vallen's son? She should be pretty, like Vallen."

"Yes, Cleo is so beautiful and smart she always gets the highest grades in her school first, she is also very nice and jolly, I love Cleo very much, just like my own daughter," said Amanda with a smile that made Aleta now began to feel upset.

"Amanda, it looks like Kenzo likes Cleo too, didn't you mean to match them up? You can't waste the chance of having a daughter-in-law like Cleo."

"Where, I've even betrothed them since Cleo was just born" said Amanda who made Abimana and Inara laugh out loud.

"That's great, Amanda. Kenzo has to get a woman like Cleo, he's very lucky to get a woman like Cleo."

"So you're blessing their relationship?"

"Of course, they have to get married quickly so that Cleo doesn't fall for other men, I'm sure Cleo can definitely help Kenzo run this company well."

"Yes, I was thinking the same thing as you."

Hearing the conversation between Amanda and her two guests, the emotions in Aleta's chest were increasingly rumbling, even her hands shook which made it difficult to concentrate on completing the work that Amanda gave her. He got up from his seat and asked permission to go to the toilet.

"Excuse me, Miss Amanda, can I have permission to go to the toilet for a moment?"

"Oh yeah of course, Aleta. Don't push yourself too much."

"Yes Lady Amanda," Aleta answered and left Amanda's room. He then hurriedly walked into the toilet and began to wash his face, which was now soaked with tears.

"Why should they talk about Cleo beside me? What exactly did Cleo have? Is he so smart that everyone should praise him? Is she so beautiful that everyone is hooked on her beauty? Oh yes I remember, they also said that Cleo was the son of Mr Firman? One of the managers in this company? Do I have to do something to Mr. Firman so he doesn't approve of Cleo and Kenzo's relationship? Arrgggghhhh later I should think again, the most important thing at this time I have to talk to Amanda," said Aleta. He then tidied up his appearance and went out of the toilet to Amanda's room.

Upon re-entering Amanda's room, the two guests seemed to be no longer in the room, now Amanda was seen starting to busy fiddling with the laptop on her desk.

"Yes, please fix my schedule this week. Here's the list, and then don't forget you called some clients before you met me."

"Okay, Mrs Amanda," Aleta replied, then began to take the note. Amanda and Aleta are now busy with their respective work, until a while later Aleta also ventured to open her voice.

"Emh, I'm sorry Miss Amanda if I'm a little presumptuous, there's actually something I want to ask."

"Yes, what's up Aleta?"

"I'm sorry, I overheard your conversation with your guest about your son."

"Oh Kenzo, what's wrong with Kenzo?"

"So your son is currently in college with his girlfriend in London?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Sorry Madam, aren't you afraid if something happens to them? They're adults, aren't you worried about something happening to them?"

Hearing Aleta's words, Amanda now looks at her with a question mark. "Why are you asking me like that, Aleta?"

"Ma..I'm sorry if my words are less pleasing to your heart, madam."

"Yes, to me you've been so presumptuous to say that to me. Aleta take it easy, please don't interfere in my family's personal affairs, I'm sure my son can definitely control himself and can take good care of Cleo, if only bad odds had happened to them I would have been disappointed that they had committed a great sin but I'm sure Kenzo would have been the man in charge because even though he seemed indifferent but he actually loves Cleo a lot, I know that, no one understands Kenzo better than me, since I was a kid I've known that Kenzo is in love with Cleo but Kenzo is very difficult to express, so I deliberately brought them back together, and it seemed like it worked. Aleta, the business between us is only a matter of work, so please don't talk about anything like this in front of me again. Do you understand?"

'How arrogant, you turned out to be so annoying, Amanda.' murmured Aleta.

"Oh.. E... Yes Mrs Amanda, I'm sorry if I've been so presumptuous to talk about something like this in front of you."

"Yes, you better get your job done, I'll be out soon because my husband's gonna pick me up for lunch outside."

"Oh yes Mrs Amanda, once again I'm sorry."

"Yes, but please don't repeat, remember that the relationship between us is just a job. You can't talk about my personal matters while in the office unless I ask for your opinion."

"Oh yes, well Mrs Amanda."

Amanda then saw her phone that now reads. "Aleta, my husband has picked me up, you please finish this job, I'll bring you lunch."

"Oh yes, well Mrs Amanda."

"I go first Aleta" said Amanda as she walked towards the door of her room. Aleta is now seen looking at Amanda with a very sharp look.

"It turns out you're a real bitch, Amanda. I thought it would be easy to get close to you and affect your way of thinking, but it wasn't. This must have happened because you loved Cleo that damn woman so much. It doesn't seem easy, but I'm going to keep trying because I'm sure Kenzo will be able to part ways with Cleo one day, and when Kenzo falls apart because Cleo left him, that's when I came back into Kenzo's life, I was sure I could definitely win Kenzo's heart, because the most powerful remedy for a man who is going through a broken heart is a new love, and I will treat Kenzo's heartache with the love I have" Aleta said with a grin.
