Cleantha put her phone on the table. He did not send any reply to the King. Although the sweet surprise the King made touched him, but he did not want to cultivate false hope in the man.
Cleantha finished her lunch. After resting for a while, Cleantha opened her desk drawer to pick up the flash disk. But when he opened the drawer, he dropped something.
Cleantha picked up the thing which turned out to be an invitation.
"I forgot that I had to attend the wedding reception of his son Mr. Hadinata. I'll tell Mama Marina later,"
cleantha thought she had saved the invitation.
"Kriyingg," Cleantha's phone rang loudly.
He picked up the phone and answered it immediately.
"Good day, Mom."
"Just like, Dion."
"Later two o'clock in the afternoon, I was asked by Mr. King to join a meeting with Mr. Evander. He came from Singapore to continue investment cooperation with the Adhiyaksa Group" Dion told Cleantha.
"Good, Dion. What reports do I need to bring?"
"The last six months' financial reports, ma'am. That'sthat's all. Thank you," Dion hung up.
Hearing Evander's name, Cleantha recalled the figure of the man who used to frighten her deeply. The man had been rude to her at the Adhiyaksa Group party. Luckily, Alvian saves her from Evander's clutches.
Cleantha took a deep breath to calm herself down.
That incident has been going on for years. Maybe Evander has turned into a polite man. She is now the widow of Alvian. It is unlikely that he will repeat the same deed while in the office of Adhiyaksa Group.
Rather than worry about Evander, Cleantha chose to focus on preparing financial statements.
At exactly two o'clock in the afternoon he went up to the tenth floor. Dion was already waiting for him in front of the door of the King's room.
"Mom, just go in. Mr. Evander is already inside with Mr. King."
Dion opened the door for Cleantha and let the woman in.
"Good day," said Cleantha stopping the conversation of the two handsome men in front of her.
Cleantha's arrival made the King and Evander turn their heads together. Evander hurried up from his chair and came to Cleantha.
"Jiang, Crantha. I'm glad we could see each other again."
The man's eyes traced Cleantha's body from head to toe. The bias of admiration was evident on his face.
For Evander, Cleantha is much more attractive after now being a mature woman. Perhaps it is true that people say that young widows are more tempting. She is also a widower who got divorced two years ago.
In the next instant, Evander changed his attitude to be very polite.
"I'm so sorry for Mr. Alvian's passing" Evander said.
"Thank you, Mr. Evander," replied Cleantha receiving the man's helping hand.
"Call me, Evan. We don't need to be too formal when we talk. In addition to our business partners can also be friends," said Evander showed off his smile.
Seeing Evander holding Cleantha's hand for quite a while, the look on the King's face stiffened. From a short distance away, he learns Evan is endlessly staring at Cleantha. It was as if he wanted the woman with passionate desire.
"Belk, Evan. Since Cleantha's here, we'll just start the meeting. Cleantha will explain the development of Adhiyaksa Group's financial condition over the past six months. He can't stay here for too long because there is a follow-up meeting with the finance team" said King trying to keep Evander away from Cleantha.
Cleantha scrunched her forehead. I don't know why the King spoke so when he didn't have a meeting schedule after this.
Evander shrugged his shoulders.
"Okey, I'm ready to listen."
Cleantha sat down and handed over the financial statements she brought to Evander. By masterly, he can explain all the contents of the financial statements while answering questions posed by the investor. The intelligence Cleantha displayed added to the admiration Evander felt.
"This woman is not only beautiful and has a beautiful body, but also intelligent. She was ideal to be my lover,"
inner Evander.
As a man, the King understood very well the meaning of Evander's gaze. This made him burn with jealous flames. If necessary, he will have Evan withdraw his investment so that his friend does not meet Cleantha again.
"Evan, is there anything you need to ask?" asked the King not to like it.
"I think that's enough."
"Clea, go back to your room" said the King.
Cleantha was astonished as to why the King wanted to immediately expel her from the room. But the King's dark eyeballs, signifying that he does not want to be denied.
"Then excuse me" said Cleantha.
"Wait a minute, Cleantha. Are you invited to James Hadinata's wedding on Saturday?" ask Evan suddenly.
"What if we go together? It just so happens that I don't have a partner who can accompany me to the show" Evander said.
"Cleantha can't go with you because she's going to attend the reception with me" the King cut.
"You're coming together?" asked Evander raising both eyebrows.
"of course. Cleantha and I are a family. It's only natural that we always come together at various events."
The answer the King gave surprised Cleantha. The man could have made up a story about their togetherness. The king is too confident.
"I'm sorry" said Cleantha leaving the King and Evander.
...****************...
Cleantha called her personal driver. Usually the driver is always ready to pick him up after he calls. But strangely today he has not appeared either.
"Hello, Mr Malik, why haven't you come yet? Is Mr Malik stuck in traffic?" ask Cleantha.
"No, Madam, I...."
Uncompleted Mr. Malik replied, the door of Cleantha's room opened from the outside. He saw the King appear without permission in front of him.
"Whose phone call? Your driver?" the king asked with a smile on the corner of his lips. Makes his face look more handsome.
"Sir, I'll call you back later" Cleantha said, hanging up.
Cleantha looked at the King with an annoyed expression. He did not even mention the King by name or call him "Master."
"Why come into my room without knocking on the door?"
"I'm not your boss and this office is mine, either. I can enter whenever I want," replied the King casually. He smiled again at the roses that adorned Cleantha's table.
"Sorry, but it's time to go home. If you want to talk about work, it's better to wait for tomorrow" replied Cleantha coldly.
"Unfortunately your guess is wrong. I don't want to talk about work, but I want to take you home. I asked Mr. Malik not to pick you up today. So it's useless for you to call him, he won't come" said Raja lightly.
"Since when has Malik obeyed someone else's orders? Has he now moved on to become Lord King's driver? Ryan too. Where's she? Why didn't you tell me that Lord King came in?"
inner Cleantha was upset.
"Then I'm going home in a taxi" Cleantha replied, grabbing her bag.
With a quick movement, the King blocked him at the door. The man crossed his legs and folded his arms in front of his chest.
"You can only get out of here if you come home with me."
"Let me out" Cleantha replied trying to break through the door.
Cleantha's stubborn attitude made the King anxious. He grabbed the beautiful woman and locked her with his two sturdy arms, so Cleantha could not move.
"Take me off or I'll scream" threatened Cleantha.
Seringai teased tercetak on the lips of the King.
"Just shout, no one will hear because Ryan I told you to go home. If anyone hears it, it doesn't matter either. We'll get caught alone here. The rumors will spread throughout the office. And when that happens we both have to get married immediately to keep the good name of the family and the company."
The King's reply left Cleantha helpless. He did not understand why the King turned aggressive and shameless. In the past, he was very protective of his image and prestige as a man.
"Why silence? Did you agree to come home with me?" asked the king to bring his face closer. Just a few inches away and their lips will touch.
The proximity between them made Cleantha unable to bear. It was better to give up first than to be entangled by this man's temptation.
"Yes, I agree. Let go of me and we go home now. The children must have been waiting at home" Cleantha replied nervously.
"Hmmm, kids....They must have been happy to see Mommy and Daddy together," said the King releasing Cleantha. But the next second, he hugged Cleantha's waist and took her out of the director's room.
Cleantha wanted to protest but did not dare. The king treated him possessively as if he did not want to lose himself for a minute. The man even opened the car door as if she were a queen.
"After this we will have a foursome dinner with the children," said the King staring at Cleantha with shady eyes. Being stared at like that made his heart beat irregular.
"Why do I feel so fucked up?"
inner Cleantha was confused.
