My Bastard Ex Boyfriend's
Chapter 39 Misunderstand
***
The two women of different ages were already in one of the famous shopping centers in Japan. Entering from store to store to buy items they like. Looks like they are indeed planning to spend Ken's money. Grocery bags containing various items no longer fit in their hands.
Charlote even had to have some of the bodyguards her husband hired to help carry their groceries. Not getting there, they are still hungry for eyes and want to hunt for other items. Branded clothes, branded shoes, make up limited edition, not to mention other expensive items they buy.
Ken got word from one of his bodyguards, he could only smile and shake his head behind the phone screen when he heard that his two beloved women were hunting in the shopping mall.
“Tante, I think we'll really spend Uncle's money this way.” Stefa felt bad for having used her Uncle's money just like that.
“Quiet, baby! Your uncle did have to do this, so just let the money run out. Why he worked all this time if the money does not want to be used at all.” Although what Charlote said was true, Stefa still felt bad for her Uncle's kindness.
“Oh, my goodness. I am old. My stomach is hungry until it sounds like this.” Charlote complains when her stomach sounds because she feels hungry in the middle of their hunting event.
“We've been here too long, Auntie. Naturally Aunt's stomach feels hungry.”
Finally they decided to visit a restaurant that is quite famous in the shopping center. They started walking towards the restaurant. Previously, Charlote asked Stefa to wait on one of the soft sofas located not far from their current position. The woman was no longer able to hold her business to immediately go to the toilet.
Stefa is alone on the couch and waiting for her Tantai to finish his business in the toilet. He took the time to post some of his photos into his social media account with a caption that
fairly short. A few seconds later, the comments were filled with comments from friends.
Lianne also enlivened the comments column and followed Judith to add a comment in the post.
“Stefa?” ask a man standing right in front of Stefa who is playing his cell phone. Stefa looked up at the man who said her name.
“Revaldo? Gosh darn. We meet again.” Stefa immediately stood up to align her body position with the man who turned out to be Revaldo.
“It looks like we're paired.” Stefa immediately rolled her eyes lazily when she heard the unqualified chatter from Revaldo's mouth.
“What are you doing here?” revaldo.
“I'm shopping with my Tante. You alone?” ask Stefa who is curious about the presence of Revaldo in the shopping center. Usually men like Revaldo will very rarely enter the shopping center. They simply told and ordered their assistants to buy something that was indeed an item that only existed in the shopping center.
They will not bother to intervene directly buy something in the shopping center.
“I will meet my client who happens to be in Japan.” Revaldo glanced at his watch.
“It looks like he'll be late to come. How about we have lunch together?” revaldo bargain.
Stefa turned to the door of the toilet where her aunt had just walked out from behind the door of the female toilet. The middle-aged woman walked over towards Stefa and Revaldo who were chatting.
“Oh. Who's this?” charlote asked Stefa but not with his eyes looking at Revaldo. Hurriedly Revaldo introduces himself and explains who he is.
“Include, I'm Revaldo.” Revaldo reached out his right hand to shake hands with Charlote. But he paused when Charlote only looked at the hand that she just stretched out.
“Tante!” muttered Stefa made Charlote accept the helping hand.
“You are ready my nephew?” ask her with suspicious squinting eyes. Revaldo immediately pulled back the hand that he had given. Then smile.
“My company is cooperating with the company where Stefa works.” obviously Revaldo is friendly. Charlote is still squeaking ‘kan eyes suspicious, he is not easy to believe the words of others.
Actually Charlote had gone outside from behind the woman's toilet door earlier, but saw there was a figure of a man who he thought was so handsome was chatting with Stefa. Instead, he kept silent near the entrance of the toilet, watching from a distance. Out of curiosity, Charlote finally walked over to Stefa and Revaldo.
As Stefa looked at her, she deliberately made it seem as if she had just walked out from behind the toilet door. Moments
hearing the man's name, Charlote felt like she had heard that name. Not to be disrespectful when Revaldo reached out his hand and did not accept the helping hand.
He was thinking hard to remember the name mentioned by Revaldo. He had heard it but he had forgotten where he had heard it. Finally, what happened was just staring at the helping hand.
“This introduction is my Tante, Charlote!” finally Stefa helped introduce the Tantenya who did not say a word. Stefa felt awkward about the situation she was facing.
“Oh, come on young man. You don't have to pretend in front of this old man. I know you guys are in time
approaches. No need to cover it! I'm not a shabby old man.” Charlote's chirps that broke the awkwardness with the other awkwardness. Stefa opened her mouth in disbelief at what she heard.
Likewise with Revaldo who blinked ‘kan eyes repeatedly. His hearing felt suddenly not functioning at all. So from earlier the middle-aged woman was staring at Revaldo suspiciously just because of this matter?! Oh that's right.
Revaldo's not in time to approach his nephew. Yes although basically the man did want to do it, it was just that hearing someone say a sentence like making him so unable to digest the situation properly.
“Why are you quiet? Ah, nevermind. We'd better have lunch first, your aunt's stomach is hungry. And you young man, come with us!” the middle-aged woman instantly left the two humans who were still silent.
“Yak, Aunt. You left me just like that.” cried Stefa chasing her Tantenya's quick steps. Like a fool, Revaldo was still in his place. He noticed the two women who had already walked quite far from his position.

“Please order the food, let me pay the bill.” Revaldo intends to pay the entire bill for the food they order. Of course Charlote exclaimed happily
because this handsome young man in front of him was willing to pay his entire bill.
Although in reality Charlote held her husband's card and was able to pay the entire bill. He let Revaldo do just that, he wanted to know how much the man was trying to
took his heart and approached him as a family from the woman he was approaching.
“Alright, I'll order food. You also quickly order your food, do not stay silent!” reprimanding Charlote who saw Stefa looked at her with deeply furrowed brows.
“You don't have to do that, Revaldo. We will pay our own bills.” refuse Stefa.
“Tak what. It's not a problem for me. You can order anything you want to eat.”
The man immediately called one of the waiters and mentioned some of the food menu he wanted. Do not forget also a bottle of red wine as a companion to their drinks. Followed by orders Charlote and Stefa.
Before long, the waiter delivered their order and put it on the table. They enjoyed lunch quietly, only the sound of a fork and a knife breaking the silence. Stefa ate her food slowly due to the awkwardness of the situation.
Unlike the Tantenya, a chatty woman who had misunderstood because she thought Revaldo was approaching her instead ate so greedily and calmly.
“Just eat your food, don't keep sighing as if the world will collapse today too!” charlote's real reprimand realized Stefa just kept sighing and alternately glanced at him as well as Revaldo.
Stefa gasped at the sound of her Tant. “Ti-no.”
Charlote put a fork and knife on the plate and wiped her mouth with a napkin. Fill the glass with red wine and then sip it a little.
“You think your aunt is blind? From that moment you took your breath away as if the world was about to collapse, you glanced at me then glanced at this man. Take it easy, I told you I'm not a shabby old man. You guys can chat like that, don't mind me too much!” he said at length. Revaldo who from the beginning just noticed instead chuckled slowly to attract the attention of the two women.
“Why are you laughing?” hiss Stefa glared at his eyes.
“I don't.” elak Revaldo casually.
Stefa snorted then finished her meal in a hurry. He wanted to get out of this situation he didn't want. The man shook his head looking at Stefa's behavior which seemed to be sulking.
After everything was done, Revaldo called the waiter again and asked for his food bill. He paid the bill with cash. None of this escaped Charlote's attention.
“By the way, how long have you been doing the approach?” chirp Charlote after the waiter left with some notes that Revaldo paid for his food bill.
“Tante!” tegur Stefa doesn't like it.
“Sstt.. Be quiet! This aunt wants to hear the truth.”
“We're not approaching, Auntie. You're overreacting and this time you're wrong.” Stefa dumped
he looked the other way while sipping wine from a glass.
“We did it not too long, and not too briefly too.” Revaldo's reply made Stefa stare horror at him.
Gosh darn. This guy really made Stefa's head throb pain from hearing it. Since when did they approach? After all, why would the man suddenly say something that never happened.
“Really?” charlote's eyes were already sparkling happily.
“No. I told you we didn't do it!” elak Stefa then looked sharply at Revaldo, as if to say you should just shut up and keep your mouth shut.
“Do you agree if we approach and have a relationship?” again Revaldo made Stefa growled and her head throbbed.
“You!” show Stefa.
“You why? You're like a hot worm from earlier, you've always denied the fact that clearly Auntie already knows the truth herself.” Sela Charlote before Stefa returns to protest.
“Gosh. This woman is really so know-how. I told you this man and I had nothing to do.” Stefa grumbled in her heart.
“Oh, yes. I may have approved of your relationship, but you must try to take my husband's heart. You have to meet him and win my husband's heart to bless your relationship. Come to our house!” charlote said later.
Revaldo raised his eyebrows eleven while staring at Stefa with his ignorant grin made the woman throb and mutter cursing him indistinctly.
“By pleasure I will visit your home.” Revaldo smiled so sweetly covering up his cunning.
The world will of course side with him who wants to take an approach to Stefa. Look at! The woman tried to resist the fate God created for both of them. But the goddess of fortune seemed to be impartial to the woman, and instead sided with Revaldo.
In his heart Revaldo cheered happily. One person had already given her support, only one more person she had to approach and gain her support. After receiving the support of Stefa's family, she will fight for Stefa to be hers.
His arrival in Japan was not in vain. He did not know about Stefa who was in Japan. He came purely to Japan just to attend seminars and some business dealings. Maybe God has destined himself to meet Stefa again.
The woman who had come to Indonesia a few months ago and became the only woman Revaldo wanted as a companion. Unfortunately, seeing Stefa being cold and a bit of a bar-bar. Revaldo had to put in a little effort to melt the woman's heart and get her.
His meeting at the time really made him extend his gratitude to God. To be honest Revaldo had no intention of coming to such a place, yet it was as if his heart was cheering and telling him to come there.
See. Fortunately, he obeyed what he said, he finally met Stefa there. If at that time he did not follow what his heart said, at this time maybe he would never know if Stefa was in Japan.
For this meeting too, outside of Revaldo's plans. He came there to meet his business partner who happened to be in Japan as well. However, it seemed that the person had arrived too late because until now that fellow had not appeared as well.
Revaldo had already booked one of the tables in the restaurant inside the shopping center for his meeting with his business partner.
“Mrs. Charlote, I'm sorry. I have to leave because my business partner has arrived.” Eventually Stefa could breathe a sigh of relief hearing Revaldo was about to leave from before her. The man had just received a message from the secretary of his business partner informing him that they had arrived at the restaurant he had ordered earlier.
“You want to go?” charlote asked with a look of face as if he could not accept if the man had to leave. It
still want to talk a lot about his closeness to Stefa.
“Tante, just let him go.” interrupted Stefa with a fluffy smile that he could not cover anymore.
Charlote glared at her eyes telling Stefa to be quiet which Stefa replied with a flick.
“To be honest I still want to accompany you guys, but my colleague has really come. Tell you what, I will stop by your house tomorrow afternoon if you allow me.”
Charlote then exclaimed happily and hugged Revaldo who was already standing.
“Of course you should come to our house. All right, you can go now. And, oh yeah. You can call me Aunt, don't be that formal. I'm not your boss or business partner, but your potential family too.” Charlote blinked one eye at Revaldo. Again the man smiled mischievously at Stefa. The woman had crossed her side by looking at her unhappy face.
“Hey, come. You don't have to overdo it!” stefa protested and immediately left the two men
the one staring at him just passed by.
Charlote grasped both hands of Revaldo gently. “I'm sorry for my nephew's attitude. He's not that kind of person, he's a nice, warm kid. However, after the event that made him injured. I feel like he's changed, he's not the bad boy he used to be.” There was a look of sadness and regret from Charlote's face. He felt like a failure because he could not take care of Stefa well. If only he and Ken could have prevented an event that would have made Stefa like this.
He and Ken will try their best not to make Stefa the cold woman she is today.
“I know. After all it was his past, and it was only natural that it happened to me as well. I'll make it
back warm as you used to say.” Promise Revaldo and return Charlote's hand. The middle-aged woman then smiled and hugged once more.
“Go! Your partner is waiting, son.”
