PLEASE, LOVE ME, WIDOW

NINES

“But, I doubt that woman will accept me, Qi, do you have any advice for me” asked dean again.

“Only a foolish woman will reject you, Mr. Dean, as a man, you are absolutely perfect, rich, well-established and kind, so, do not hesitate, just state your feelings for the woman, she said, I'm sure she'll accept you” Qiandra said confidently, but in her secret heart the woman felt a little disappointed.

If he wanted to be honest, Qiandra actually had time to wish all of Dean's kindness had other purposes.However, he soon realized who he was, so Qiandra no longer wished on Dean.  Especially at this time Dean clearly said that he liked a woman, so, Qiandra tried to be relaxed and give suggestions to encourage Dean.

“Hmmm, so you think I should express my feelings to that woman, Qi” asked Dean again.

“Of course, he won't know if you don't tell him” Qiandra said.

“But, I've shown all my attention to him, Qi, is that not enough” asked Dean.

“Many women do not dare to prejudge the kindness of a man, Dean, our kind need clarity with words, not only with attitude and concern” Qiandra said.

“Hmmm, alright, do you know who that woman is, Qi” asked Dea again with an intense gaze at the two Qiandra eyeballs.

“Gosh, where do I know, Dean, we just got to know each other, I don't even know anything about you other than about your company, heee” kekeh Qiandra.

“That woman is you, Qi, I fell in love at first sight with you” Dean said wistfully, he clasped Qiandra's hand tightly.

“A-me?” qiandra asked who was surprised to hear Dean's statement, “Don't joke Dean, no need to entertain me with jokes like this”.

“Do I look like I'm joking, Qi, let's see me, look me in the eye, Qi, did you find a lie” asked Dean by locking the two Qiandra eyeballs.

Qiandra was fixated, her eyes locked onto the brownish-black bead of a handsome man before her.  Although Qiandra was actually happy because her hope had come true, however, she was quite difficult to accept that fact.

“Dean, don't be like this, there are a lot of women out there who are more deserving of you, me, I'm just a pesky widow, please, don't make it hard for yourself by liking me”.  “Again, we just met and got to know each other, is this not too rushed” he continued.

“Qi, I have been interested in you, since a while ago, when we met often at the funeral, but you never cared about my presence.and this meeting, this time, it was, I am absolutely sure that I have fallen in love with you” Dean said firmly.

“But, Dean...” Qiandra had yet to finish her words, Dean placed her index finger on the woman's sexy lips.

“I'm not asking you to answer now, Qi, I just want you to know, I love you, and I admire you with all your background and status, so never feel condolences just because of your status” Dean said gently, he kissed both hands Qiandra, “Now rest, if you already feel fresh, he said, I will take you to the beach later in the afternoon” he continued.

“Beach?, isn't that far enough, Dean” said Qiandra again.

“Ha ha ha, so you have not realized where you are now, Qi, briefly” Dean stepped towards the window of that room, then he opened the window curtain.  The sight seen from the window made Qiandra gawk.

“Ja-so now we are by the beach, Dean” exclaimed Qiandra with a sparkling face.

“Yes, you will live in this mansion, Qi, this mansion I bought from a friend of mine who moved abroad, and since purchased I never occupied it.  There are only a few servants who take care of this mansion , I only visit once in a while, if I am being spared” Dean said.

“Ah, thank you, let me stay here, Dean”, said Qiandra with a sweet smile, “ But, if you ever need this mansion, I am ready to find another place to live, or I have to pay the rent, I am ready” he continued.

“Don't think about it, Qi, now rest, it's got a phone on the nightstand near your bed, you can contact the waiter, if there's something you need” said Dean, “I'll be out for a while, meeting Albert and Vian, as well as Bik Sum and Mang Ijal, I'm sure at this time they are very worried about you”.

“Rest first, Qi, later in the afternoon you can meet with Bik Sum and Mang Ijal, and this, this, drink the medicine that Albert has prepared for you” said Dean while handing over some medicine and also a glass of water to Qiandra.

“Hmmm, alright” Qiandra took the medicine then swallowed it, “One more time thank you very much for everything, Dean” Qiandra said with a gentle smile.

“Rest, Qi, and please consider my hope earlier” Dean said gently, he grabbed Qiandra's hand and kissed her gently, “I really love you, Qiqi” he said sincerely and lovingly.

Qiandra could only be speechless, she did not know what to say, all this felt too fast for her.  So, Qiandra still felt surprised and could not believe that men as perfect as Dean liked let alone loved her.

“I came out first, yes, Qi” told Dean to Qiandra, to which Qiandra answered with a nod of her head and a sweet smile.

After Dean came out, Qiandra pensive for a while, “Why did everything go so fast, yes, sorrow, likes to change without pause.  Hah, this is really hard for me to believe, but instead of Dean being Mr. Daniel's nemesis, gosh, I forgot to tell Mr. Daniel” Qiandra whispered as he patted his eel.

Slowly he got off his bed and grabbed his bag which Dean had placed on the nightstand near his bed.  Qiandra took her phone, she noticed there were some missed calls that all felt from Daniel.  Even some messages came in, all from Daniel asking for his whereabouts.  Qiandra exhaled softly, then tried to be calm and then Qiandra pressed back a number to contact someone.

“Hallo, good afternoon Mr. Daniel” greeted Qiandra who turned out to be calling Daniel, his superior.

“……………..”

“I'm sorry, sir, I'm late to tell you that today I can't go down to the office, I'm not feeling well, and I woke up late, I'm asking permission for today, maybe until tomorrow I still can not get off the office” said Qiandra with a polite tone.

“……………..”

“It's okay, sir, I just got the flu, sir, maybe because I was rained yesterday, thank you for worrying about my situation, Tuan” said Qiandra.

“……………..”

“Oh, don't bother, Sir, I promise I'll be down the day after tomorrow, said the doctor I just need to rest” Qiandra said again.

“……………..”

“No, no need, sir, you certainly know how my in-laws' attitude” Qiandra was forced to lie to Daniel.

“……………..”

“Alright, thank you, sir, good day” Qiandra said, then she returned her phone to her bag.

“Okay, how is this, if Mr. Daniel knew I was with Dean, he would definitely be furious, because he hated Dean so much, he said, Mr. Daniel must have thought I betrayed him just as his men had seen him near Dean.  But, Dean is so kind, why did Mr. Daniel say he was so mean and cruel, what could it be just because of business competition.  Continues, is it possible that Dean approached me also for business reasons, is it possible that he wants to pry information about the Mahardika company from me” suddenly a presumption appeared in the mind of Qiandra.

“Ah, I can't accuse Dean so recklessly based on presumptions alone, however, Dean has helped me so much, as a stranger, what he has done is already excessive.  Maybe I need to investigate first, because it also feels impossible Dean suddenly loves me, moreover he has known how my life and also my status desis Qiandra again.

A while later, Qiandra felt her eyes getting heavier, she realized it must be the effect of the medicine she had just taken earlier.  Eventually Qiandra drifted away in her dreamland, until she didn't realize time was passing.
