"Yes, hello?" araz said halfheartedly.
If only Kanya did not force him to answer the phone call, he was lazy to deal with the figure who was now calling him.
The last time he met that person only caused trouble in his life.
Araz doesn't want to deal with her anymore. However, he was also well aware that the figure would not just let go.
"Gue's busy, tell me what you want!" araz said firmly.
The man deliberately made the distance for the caller to feel comfortable.
"This boy, is that how your parents taught you manners?"
Instantly Araz was stunned when he heard the voice of an old man from the other end of the voice.
"Hal-abeoji?" araz could no longer speak.
He did not expect that he would receive such a quick phone call from his maternal grandfather.
"Who do you think would dare ignore my phone call?"
"Ah, that.I guess...Wait Hal-abeoji. I was outside. I'll call as soon as I get back to the office." Araz tried to negotiate with his grandfather. Although the possibility of that is very small happens.
"There's no later! We're talking about everything now!"
"But, Hal-abeoji...."
The gentle touch on Araz's thigh made the man turn his head. Kanya looked at him with a smile framing the woman's face. The lover gave her a code to have Araz answer her phone call first.
From that short talk Kanya can understand, who is the person who is calling Araz at this time. To that end, Kanya encourages Araz to answer the phone from his grandfather first.
Given the story of Araz how the attitude of the grandfather and how the man insisted on matching the lover with Cassandra. With the reason that their treasures do not fall into the hands of others.
She didn't want to be labeled a dissident or looked down upon by Araz's grandfather just for blocking him from answering the phone. Although the truth is that Araz did not want to answer the phone from his grandfather.
"It's okay. Pick it up first" whispered Kanya still maintaining a smile on her face.
Araz seemed to mind. This was the first time the two had dated after lunch. No need to worry about being known to others if they are dating. However, the call of the grandfather just messed things up.
"What are you doing? How dare you make an old man wait!" gramps on the end of the phone.
Though Araz had distanced his phone, but still he could hear the voice of the man shouting from the end of the voice challenger.
"Udah, answer me first," urged Kanya.
"I answered there?" the man said as he pointed at a park bench some distance away from where they were sitting at the moment.
Kanya can understand and let Araz answer his phone calls where he wants.
"Yes," the woman replied while maintaining a smile framing her face.
With a heavy heart, Araz got up from beside Kanya and walked to the place he had previously pointed to, to answer the call of the grandfather. Araz is keeping Kanya's feelings in check that she might get hurt when she hears her conversation with the man.
Grandpa doesn't know Kanya. But, it was not impossible that the attached grandmother whose number was used by the grandfather to call Araz, had poisoned the old man's mind.
It is evident that his grandfather called him now. In fact, Araz had just planned if he would invite Kanya to fly to Korea to ask for the old man's blessing.
"Alcatraz! This brat. I didn't agree from the start that your father named Alcatraz. This is what it is, you love to contradict and refute the words of parents." The old man said in Korean which only Araz understood a little.
However, the man did not bother and let the grandfather continue to nag from the other end of the phone.
"What did he say, Hal-abeoji?"
Someone asked from behind the old man.
"Let's know, that wayward boy just ignored my words!" The old man complained and was heard clearly by Araz.
"I told you I was outside, Hal-abeoji. Hal-abeoji himself is forcing to talk to me." Araz is not to blame.
"Hal-abeoji always says about manners, but it forces me to talk when I'm outside" he added in an annoyed tone.
"Hal-abeoji, change Hal-abeoji first if you want to talk to me."
"Truly this kid. The more mature instead of the more able to respect parents, the more daring to be impudent."
"I remind you, Hal-abeoji. At least if Hal-abeoji would advise me, I can understand Hal-abeoji's words. Isn't that better?"
The old man on the other end of the phone let out a long sigh. He seemed to run out of sense to face his grandson on this one.
In fact, their family is a large family that has many offspring. But, Araz is the only grandson who can't be controlled.
Never mind refuting, the other granddaughter no one dared to look the old man in the eye when speaking. However, Araz often set it up.
Including having to use Indonesian when talking to the man.
Not that Araz learned the language from his mother, but instead the grandfather was asked to use his mother tongue.
"Ck, this kid really. I've lost my mind to face you."
"Sorry, Hal-abeoji, but I just want to make things easier between us. That way, doesn't it all get easier?"
"That's it, we don't have to argue any longer. I'll just say to the point.
You know, if Cassandra is the woman who will be your soul mate? You know what that means, right? Spousal. Then why are you still wasting your time dating other people?"
"Hal-abeoji, there is no right to rule who my soul mate is" Araz strongly denied.
"Why not? In your country there are terms of seeds, weights, and bebet in the affairs of a mate. I also agree with that term.
What is special about women who only work as your subordinates? Is that equivalent to you replacing me in the future?"
"Damn!" Araz cursed in the heart.
She did not anticipate this would happen once Cassandra suddenly showed up at her parents' house and messed things up. Araz lost step with the woman who first complained to the king's majesty. The mother-to-be grandfather who likes to organize everything. Including a soul mate for the grandson.
"Why didn't you answer my question?" ask the old man from the other end of the phone.
"We talked about this, Hal-abeoji. I've said firmly, if I don't want to continue whatever is currently in my possession, Hal-abeoji. Leave it all to you, Cassandra. I don't want to take part."
"This boy, what are you talking about? How dare you say that to an old man. After all, how can women hold control of a company this big?"
Araz took a deep breath. The grandfather began again, always differentiating one's abilities only from gender.
In fact, compared to his other grandchildren, Cassandra is the queen in the big family.
"Why not respond?"
"What do I need to answer? Hal-abeoji will always hear what he says rather than what I say."
"What do you want to say? Bullshit that you have a wife of your own choice?"
"If Hal-abeoji knows, Hal-abeoji should give me a chance dong," said Araz sounding annoyed.
"Freasurely opportunity?"
"Hal-abeoji has never even met him, but has decided unilaterally."
"Then tell me how high it is to be with you."
Araz doesn't like to discuss this with his grandfather. There will be no end and it will only waste its time for free.
Moreover, not necessarily Kanya also want to be touched on how rich or high the degree of his family. It's just that, the fact that Araz knows, Kanya's extended father is the top twenty richest people in the country.
Likewise with the mother who is in the top fifty ranks of the richest people. However, Araz did not want to mention that.
Araz wanted Kanya to be judged as herself. Not how much property his family or parents have.
"no need. I'll take her to meet, Hal-abeoji. Things-abeoji can judge for themselves, whether the property is still valid in this matter," concluded Araz did not want to extend his debate with the grandfather.
