The Wife of the King's Pay

Chapter 93 Heartbreak

"Clea, are you ready? We must leave now so that it is not too late" Alvian said as he knocked on Cleantha's door.

"Before a moment, sir," Cleantha answered, looking at herself in front of the mirror.

She was nervous because this was her first time going on a date with Alvian.

Cleantha had long chosen what clothes she should wear. Understandably, he felt not confident with Alvian. She was just a widow in two. While Alvian is a single man with all the advantages.

"Sorry, sir," said Cleantha out of the room.

He caught a glimpse of Alvian's appearance. The man was wearing a dark blue casual t-shirt with matching jeans. Makes him look handsome and younger.

Cleantha lowered her head, not daring to look at Alvian's face.

Whether knowing Cleantha's thoughts or just guessing, Alvian straightened the girl's chin.

"Clea, don't be shy. You are always beautiful in my eyes. Let's go" said Alvian holding Cleantha's two shoulders.

Cleantha complied, following Alvian to the car.

On the way, Alvian deliberately told some jokes to melt the atmosphere. Eventually they arrive at the movie theater where they will watch the movie.

"Clea, just wait here. I'll buy popcorn and drinks. Do you want sweet or salty popcorn?" ask Alvian.

"That's salty, sir. I've eaten too much sweet food" Cleantha replied.

"If drinks?"

"Chocolate is warm" Cleantha replied spontaneously.

"Well, the Madam's order will be delivered soon," said Alvian smiling and then stepping away.

A moment later Cleantha shut her mouth. She felt ashamed because since she was pregnant there were many desires that could not be held back.

He should have kept his attitude in front of Alvian, not even spoiled and asked for this.

But it is undeniable that his heart is blossoming. This time, he felt loved and privileged by someone.

This is the kind of life she always wanted as a young girl. Have a sweet and light love relationship. With a man who loves her and belongs only to her. He does not need to share and does not have to give in to other women.

Yet again there was a sense of inferiority in Cleantha's heart. She felt unworthy to be Alvian's lover with her current condition.

When Alvian came to bring her popcorn and a drink, Cleantha hurriedly wiped away her tears.

"Clea, let's go in. The movie is about to start" Alvian said, handing a popcorn box to Cleantha.

"Yes, sir."

Alvian squinted his eyes, watching Cleantha closely.

"Have you just cried? Your eyes look red" asked Alvian suspiciously.

"Eyelash entry only, sir," Cleantha replied.

"You can't lie to me, Clea. I know you very well. You must have cried."

"Listen, from now on promise not to cry anymore. I want you to always be happy with me, honey," said Alvian, holding Cleantha's hand in the studio.

"Did I not hear wrong? Mr. Alvian called me "Honey", please",

muttered Cleantha glanced at a glance towards Alvian who was sitting next to her.

Cleantha felt her cheeks warm up. Fortunately, the atmosphere around it was quite dark. Otherwise, Alvian would have seen his face as red as an apple.

"Let's not cry watching this movie. I read from the synopsis that there was a scene of his wife dying after giving birth," said Alvian taking some popcorn from Cleantha's hand.

"I.iya, sir," Cleantha replied concealing her awkwardness.

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

The king told his driver to drive him to Cleantha's house.

"So this is Clea's house? The house is very simple. I should have bought a new house for his family. All this time I never paid attention to Cleantha's life,"

thought the King was sorry.

The king opened the door of his car and stepped out. The house looked empty with a dim light. Maybe the occupants are already sound asleep in there.

The king only wished Cleantha was still awake so that they could speak from heart to heart.

Desperate to meet Cleantha, the King never gave up. He knocked on Cleantha's door until someone's footsteps came from inside the house.

"Cekrekk," the door opened.

King and Keyla were both shocked, as they sat face to face in the doorway.

"Lord, why are you here?" asked Keyla in astonishment.

"Keyla, I'm sorry I interrupted you all those nights. Is Cleantha around? If so, please call him. I want to talk for a moment," asked the King politely.

Keyla folded her hands in front of her chest.

"What is your need to find my brother? Didn't you already divorce Cleantha? Sir has the wrong address. Clea doesn't live here anymore" Keyla said.

"If Clea doesn't live in her house, then where is she?" ask the King.

Keyla shrugged her shoulders lazily.

"Where do I know. Last time Clea went with a suitcase containing all her clothes, then disappeared with Mr. Alvian" Keyla said.

"He left the house with Alvian?" asked the King to doubt Keyla's words.

"Yes, Sir. For the past two days, my sister left and went home to work together with Mr. Alvian. Everyone in the office knows it. They look very close and friendly. It's possible that they've been living together," Keyla said provoking the King.

Hearing the information Keyla gave, the King's heart went over fast.

Keyla's words were similar to what came to her mind. But this time, he did not want to be rash in making a decision. He must learn to control himself so as not to repeat the same mistakes.

"I'll look for Cleantha somewhere else. Give my regards to your father. Good night," said the King passed from before Keyla.

Upon arrival in the car, the King tried to contact Cleantha's cell phone. The number is inactive. Then he switched to calling Alvian, but his sister's phone could not be reached either.

The feeling of the King raging. He felt something was wrong with all this.

"Damn, why can't the two be contacted at the same time? I have to see if they're really alone. I'm going to visit Mama Marina's house to check on Alvian's whereabouts,"

muttered the King burning with jealousy.

Without wasting any time, the King slid into his stepmother's house. It doesn't matter if it's night.

Seeing the King's arrival, the servants at Ms.'s house. Marina hurried to greet him.

"Please sit down, Lord King. I'll call Madam. He was in his room" said the faithful servant. The marina.

Before long, Madam Marina appeared in her sleeping pajamas.

"King? Tumben once you've been to this night?" ask Ny. Marina frowned

"I'm sorry, Ma, if I'm interrupting. I just want to ask where is Alvian? Is he here?" answer the King to the point.

Mrs. Marina took a deep breath before answering the King's question.

"King, you should have asked your ex-wife Cleantha. Don't ask me. I don't know where my son is now."

"What does Mama mean?" insist King.

"Your ex-wife has made Alvian lose her mind. Alvian has left Mama and has chosen to be with her. If you want to know where Alvian is, just look for him in his apartment. Now Mama wants to rest, Mama's head is dizzy," said Mrs. Marina leaves the King.

The King's heart was like that of thousands of sharp thorns. If it is true that Alvian and Cleantha lived in the same apartment, it means that he could not have returned to Cleantha. He apologized because it would only make him look miserable.

"I'm going to Alvian's apartment right now to prove all this,"

thought the King rounded his resolve.
