The Wife of the King's Pay

Chapter 84 Arrives to Miss Him

Cleantha just froze in Alvian's arms. I don't know why he couldn't stop crying, but his tears were flowing. Maybe Alvian's shirt is wet with his tears.

"If you still want to cry, cry as much as you can so that your feelings are relieved. But after this don't be depressed anymore. Remember the baby in your womb" Alvian said in a soft voice.

He removed Cleantha and took a tissue from his desk.

"Remove your tears, we go home now."

Cleantha's tongue is twisted.

After he had a stifling emotion to his chest, he did not want to say a word.

Alvian led Cleantha out of her room into the elevator. He could feel the girl's body trembling as it endured the pain.

Upon arrival at the parking lot, Alvian took Cleantha into his car. He did not heed the many pairs of eyes that witnessed their closeness.

"Sir, why do this again? Do you want gossip about my relationship and the Father getting louder?" cleantha asked in a raucous voice.

"I don't care about the rumors. Because soon I'll make it a reality" said Alvian.

Cleantha had no idea where Alvian was taking her, but the man stopped his car at one of the grilled chicken restaurants.

"Let's get down. You must eat first so that your body does not limp."

They entered the restaurant and sat at one of the tables.

"Please Mr and Miss. What do you want to order?" ask the waiter to hand over the menu book and a piece of ordered paper.

"We'll choose the food first. Later I will call Mbak again" replied Alvian.

"Good, Sir."

Alvian wrote down his order and handed the order paper to Cleantha.

"Clea, order as you see fit. I don't know what your favorite food is. But as I recall you once ordered grilled chicken when we had dinner together. That's why I brought you here. If you want to eat something else, order everything. Pregnant women need a lot of nutrients" Alvian said.

He took his phone and made a call to someone.

From her chair, Cleantha could listen to the conversation Alvian had.

"Good night, Rosalia's mother. This is me Alvian. Sorry I called outside of work."

"Good night, Mr. Alvian. It's okay, I'm still in the office, sir."

"Mom, I want to talk about Cleantha. Cleantha had to keep working as a petty cash staff in the finance division. No one should force him to resign" Alvian said.

"I'm sorry, sir. But I'm just following the orders Mr. Dion gave me. He had direct instructions from the Lord King to have Cleantha resign from the company."

Alvian emphasized the intonation of his voice.

"Mother Rosalia, do you want to defy my orders? I am the leader of the finance division as well as the owner of this company. Cleantha is my subordinate and is within my authority. No one can fire him or harass him without my permission. So I reiterate once again, cancel that decision. If the CEO objected, just ask him to contact me directly."

Mother Rosalia's voice sounded low. He seemed confused as to whose decision he should follow. Decision of the King the CEO or Alvian the Finance Director. Moreover, they are both owners of Adhiyaksa Group companies.

"Mr Alvian, I need to explain to you about the situation Cleantha was in. She's thought to be pregnant. Though his status is not married, so...."

"Cleantha is pregnant or not, it has nothing to do with her job. And regarding his status, you know nothing, so don't assume haphazardly" Alvian said angrily.

"Okay, sir, I'm sorry."

"I reiterate once again, no manager or employee can harass Cleantha. If anyone dares to do that, then he will confront me. Good night," said Alvian, ending his phone call.

Cleantha was shocked to hear a loud statement from Alvian. But he refused to ask further. He is very lazy to talk to others. He chose to eat his food in silence.

...****************...

Alvian occasionally glanced at Cleantha, yet he did not ask anything given Cleantha's bad mood.

He focused on driving cars through the frenetic streets of the capital. Eventually, they arrive at Cleantha's home.

"We have arrived. Take a break and think nothing. Tomorrow you can work as usual" said Alvian open the car door.

"Thank you, sir," Cleantha answered briefly.

He stepped out of the car. But Ana suddenly approached Cleantha with a big bag in her hand.

"Clea, you're finally home. Said you wanted to leave this house after work. Auntie bring your bag so you can go faster. No need to go in the house so your father doesn't see it."

"Just relax, Auntie. I'm leaving" said Cleantha, receiving her bag.

Ana stops and turns to look at Alvian's car. Eagerly, he approached Alvian. Who knew he could benefit from that rich young man.

"Night, Mr. Alvian. It's so good to see you."

"Aunty's night" said Alvian looking at Ana

"I just want to ask, what is her husband's master, Cleantha? If so, please do not divorce my stepson. If she gets pregnant without a husband, people will gossip about her. I had to ask her to leave the house to keep her good name" Ana pretended to be sad and watched Cleantha.

"Take Cleantha to the Lord's house. Keep her until she gives birth. You know for yourself that our family is poor. If Cleantha stays here it will only add to our burden. Unless...You want to give special allowances for us every month," continued Ana showed off her sly smile.

Hearing Ana's words, Alvian was convinced that Cleantha's stepmother was a female double eye.

Cleantha had been surrounded only by petty and selfish humans. It is only fitting that his life is always in trouble, because no one loves him sincerely. After all Cleantha had to be immediately released from this poisonous environment.

"Auntie doesn't have to worry. I'll take care of Cleantha for the next. He won't come back here again" Alvian replied.

Alvian got out of his steering chair and pulled Cleantha back into the car.

"Come, Clea, come with me, go" said Alvian without looking back at Ana.

"But, sir, I need to find a hostel for where I live" Cleantha declined.

"no need. From today you will live in my apartment. Relax, I didn't spend the night there. You can rest without anyone interrupting" Alvian said, running his car.

...***************...

The king rested his head on the car seat. He felt sad after being faced with a lot of work in the midst of his household problems. Even he was less able to concentrate when meeting with Mr. Zhang.

In times of weariness and heaviness, he needs someone to be next to him and strengthen him.

Money, power, and wealth were not able to comfort his heart that was being ravaged. What he needs right now is love. And somehow it was Cleantha's shadow that first appeared in his mind.

Suddenly, he missed his wife. Wanted to hug her and caress the growing baby in her womb.

"Dion."

"Yes, Sir."

"Tomorrow, please find an informant to track down Fendi's whereabouts in Singapore. If he finds my fucking brother, let me know. I'll meet him in person. I had to force him to explain the details of the entrapment, "the king said.

"Okay, sir, I'll do it soon."
