Possessive Companions

Chapter 12

Darren just got back from taking Alisha. I don't know, it was her duty to take Alisha to school. Unless he really has something important in the office.

Darren got out of his car and stepped in. Aura intimidated him as if forcing every employee to lower their heads. Jiyo who was standing in the doorway greeted him also lowered her head.

"Good morning, young master." He said, full of respect.

"Hmmm..." Reply Darren, only with deheman.

Darren passed by his employees followed by Jiyo behind him. Both of them entered a special elevator. Before long, the two arrived at the floor where Darren's room was.

"Your schedule today is not so busy, sir. There's just a meeting with a client at the ER hotel, 3 p.m."

"Yes." Yeah." That was the only reply Jiyo received.

He took his breath. Must be really patient with Darren. It was lucky Asya. Just saying what he wants, cold Darren will give it to him. Suddenly Jiyo's heart felt jealous of Asya who always obeyed Darren.

If Darren did the same to her, she would ask to cut down half her work.

"Ah, thinking of Asya, makes me think that she's back." Mumbled.

Jiyo looked at Darren who was seriously reading the documents and signing them. He moved a little closer.

"Darrenes. You're so handsome today. When you came... "

"Tell me what you want! Don't convolve!" Darren said, already so understand the character of his best friend.

"Hehehe... Just know you." The reply. "I want to ask, how is Asya? He hasn't returned my messages since the day you picked him up."

"He's good."

"Thank God. What about the girl he was with?" Darren slightly raised his face. His sharp gaze pierced right in Jiyo's eyes. Made the man gulp his saliva with great difficulty.

"You want me to add your work?"

"Huh? Nothin. I'm going back to my room now." He said, then walked out of Darren's room in a hurry.

My work is enough. I don't want to add to it anymore. Inner Jiyo.

Darren refocused on his files. Suddenly a notification from his phone was heard.

Assya

Come on, let's have lunch together.

Without showing any expression, Darren typed in his reply.

^^^Darren^

^^^^^^^

Assya

I'm waiting at Jane's Cafe.

Darren just read it without replying again. He continued to focus on the files in front of him. Some files he put back without signing them. There's still some mistakes. He then called Jiyo through his office phone.

Without waiting for long, Jiyo arrived at her room.

"Is there anything I need to do, young master?"

"Bring these files, re-revision!"

Jiyo stared at the file on Darren's desk. He gulped his saliva. Some of what was on his desk wasn't done yet. This, even in addition to the previous file.

He quickly found out where the error was on the file. I admit, Darren is really very observant and clever.

"Okay, young master." Reply Jiyo. "Ekhm... Darren!" Call Jiyo, after the files are in her hands.

Darren didn't say. If Jiyo has changed her call, it means that there is something outside the office business that she wants to convey.

"She sent me a message. He wants to have lunch together."

"Go!" Reply Darren, indifferently.

Jiyo smiled broadly. Didn't expect Darren to allow it so soon. Usually Darren would throw him with a frighteningly sharp look. But today is different. Jiyo thought, Darren must have also gotten a lunch message together from Asya. Wanted to ask, but he paused it when he saw Darren who was in focus.

"Then, thank you, young master. Excuse me." Jiyo said, back to formal.

"Hmmm..." Reply Darren.

The clock continues to turn. Without them noticing, the clock was already showing the time for lunch.

Darren rushes back into his suit, then grabs the car keys and walks out of the room.

Jiyo who saw Darren out rushed over quickly finished her remaining work a little. After he was done, he left his study and followed Darren.

"Ck! That guy was so fast. The car's gone from the parking lot." Mumbled Jiyo, after arriving at the parking lot.

"Who is he? He's very handsome."

"His face looks like someone. But, who?"

"He's not an ordinary person. Her aura is so strong."

Darren continued walking to the empty table. Ignoring every admiration people.

"Excuse me, sir. Do you want to order something?"

"No. Just go ahead." Reply Darren, without staring at the cafe waiter.

Darren was so calm in his place. There were still whispers admiring him. One voice sounded so close to him.

"Sorry, I'm late."

That voice did not make Darren look. He knew it was not Asha, it was Naomi.

The woman pulled the chair in front of Darren. As he stared at Darren, his eyes collided with Darren's eyes looking at him sharply. The sharp and cold meta highlight made Naomi shudder inwardly.

She's scary. But, I like it. Inner Naomi.

"Ekhm... Asya asked me to come here. He told me to replace him with you for lunch. He has an appointment with someone. If not wrong, his name is Jiyo. I think he's a man." Naomi.

Darren remained calm. There was not the slightest intention of her to talk to Naomi. She knew, Naomi was trying to make Asya look bad in her eyes. Hearing Naomi's voice, he could immediately guess if Asya arranged a meeting between them. Not choosing to replace her with Naomi.

Seeing Darren remain silent, Naomi again made a sound. "Have you come since? Why haven't you ordered food?" Ask. However, Darren remained silent.

The female visitors at the cafe kept staring at Naomi and Darren. Some scorned Naomi and laughed at her for not responding to Darren.

Naomi glanced in annoyance at them. He was recklessly about to grab Darren's hand. But, Darren more quickly raised his hand and waved it at the cafe waiter. Get the waiter closer. The waiter handed Darren a menu book. But the man refused it.

"no need. Bring me some of the best food at the cafe."

"Good, sir." The servant then left without asking Naomi again.

Huh huh? He didn't ask me? Never mind. Maybe he thinks Darren's order is mine, too. Inner Naomi.

After waiting for a few minutes, their order came. The waiter put it on the table.

"How much is everything?" The waiter was surprised to hear Darren's question. People usually pay after eating. But the person in front of him was not.

"Everything Rp. 1,450,000, sir."

Darren pulled out one of his cards. Not much, just three cards. But, one of the three was able to make Naomi and the waiter gulp.

Black card? Waahs... He's not just anyone. The servant's inner.

Blackcards? Who is Darren? Inner Naomi.

After he finished making the payment, Darren rushed to his feet. Naomi, who saw him, knew that Darren was leaving him. He also stood up and was about to grab Darren's coat arm. But his movements came to a halt when suddenly Darren's cold voice sounded.

"If it touches me, I'll make sure two of your five fingers are missing." Her speech was slow, but enough to make Naomi tremble.

The girl sat back down with a slightly paled face. His gaze remained on Darren's back which was starting to drift away.

"Huh, I told you. A man like that doesn't like a woman like her." Said a female visitor. Made Naomi swerve sharply towards the woman.

Darren shut the car door and drove it. His hand put on handsfree and called Jiyo.

"Hallo, Ren." Sapa Jiyo's.

"Go back to the office now." Darren said without further ado.

"But, Ren. I'm with Asya."

"Leave it!"

"Huh? Wh why? I can't. It's still a break."

"No objection!" Darren said, immediately disconnecting the call.

Jiyo took her breath. He looked at Asya with a weak look. He still wanted to hear Asya tell a story.

"What's wrong?" Ask Asya.

"Darren's sending me to the office right now." Asya quietly grunted him.

"Huufth..." Jiyo took her breath. "Normally Darren is like this. Did anyone stop him?" Mumbled slowly. However, Asya could hear it.

His body stiffened hearing Jiyo's words. Maybe it was because Naomi had lunch with her, not him.

"If Darren says so, go! He's gonna need your help."

"Yes. I'm going first. You be careful going home later."

Asya nodded. Jiyo immediately got up and walked to the parking lot. Drive the car to the office.
