The Wife of the King's Pay

Chapter 98 The Unexpected Proposal

After pondering for a moment, Bu Nur decided to contact Alvian. In addition to fearing blame, he also did not have the heart to see Cleantha's condition was still weak. He had to break his promise this time.

While standing in the corner of the room, Ms. Nur called Alvian's phone.

"Good afternoon, sir. I'm sorry to interrupt, there's something important that I have to say about Non Cleantha," Bu Nur said hesitantly.

Alvian, who had just walked out of the meeting room, was in a hurry. He could not hear Bu Nur's voice clearly.

"Mom, can you shake her voice, I can't hear you."

"Non Cleantha, sir. He wants to get out of the apartment. He's already put all his clothes in the suitcase."

Alvian was shocked to hear the news that Bu Nur had delivered.

"Is Miss Nur sure Cleantha will go?"

"Yes, Sir. Non Cleantha said she wanted to go back to her family's house" Bu Nur replied as she was.

Alvian thought for a moment. It was impossible for Cleantha to go home to her parents. She was driven out of the house by Keyla and her stepmother. There is only one possibility left. Cleantha would go missing aimlessly. And of course he won't let that happen.

"Mom, please take as long as possible to block Cleantha. I'll be home as soon as possible" said Alvian rushing back to his room.

Inside the room, Cleantha was already preparing to leave. The bus leaves in two hours and he won't be late.

Cleantha took out a piece of paper, then wrote a final farewell to Alvian.

"Thank you for everything you've done for me. I'm sorry if I have to go without saying goodbye, but this is best for both of us. *Mr ti*need to find me. May you always be happy."

With trembling hands, Cleantha placed the letter on the nightstand.

Seeing Cleantha coming out with a large suitcase, Bu Nur hurriedly blocked her steps.

"Non, don't carry heavy things alone. I'll help Non with his suitcase" said Bu Nur, taking over the suitcase from Cleantha's hand.

"I'm saying goodbye, Mom. Thank you for all the help that Ms. Nur gave me," Cleantha replied farewell.

"Wait a minute, Nope. I'm making a steamed sponge cake for Non Cleantha. You can not eat at home. In about fifteen minutes the cake will be ripe."

Cleantha glanced at her watch agitatedly. Alvian was worried that he would come home from the office and find her. But he felt bad if he refused the sincere gift of Bu Nur.

"Yes, Mom, I'll wait here."

Bu Nur deliberately slowed down his every move, hoping that Alvian would come soon. But the man didn't show up either.

"Mom, is it done? I have to leave now. My taxi was waiting downstairs" asked Cleantha.

"Eh, yes, Non, already. Here's the cake" Bu Nur said, handing Cleantha a box of food.

"Thank you, Mom. I'm saying goodbye now" Cleantha said out the door of Alvian's apartment.

"Non, I will accompany Non Cleantha up to the lobby," Bu Nur said, delivering Cleantha.

"Why hasn't Mr Alvian come yet? Non Cleantha's been hunting away,"

thought Bu Nur also felt anxious.

Alvian's car is racing. Although the distance of his office and apartment is not too far away, but he was held long enough on the road due to the congestion of the capital.

When he entered the apartment, he saw a taxi coming out. And there's Bu Nur still standing at the lobby door.

"Don't be in that cab there's Clea. I have to go after him,"

Alvian drove his car at high speed, following a taxi carrying Cleantha.

In the taxi, Cleantha rested her head on the back of the chair. Sometimes he closed his eyes. Since he had not been out of the hospital for long, his entire body still felt limp. But his departure should not be delayed. If he continues to be on Alvian's side, then his life situation will be more difficult.

Cleantha was unaware that a red car had been following her since.

"Sir, we've arrived" said the taxi driver who drove Cleantha.

"Yes, sir, thank you."

Cleantha opened the taxi door while carrying her suitcase.

As far as the eye can see, there are buses lined up with passengers waiting for departure.

I don't know why he felt alone in the bus terminal. There was a trace of fear in her heart, but Cleantha brushed it off. This decision need not be regretted. Perhaps it has become a suratan of his destiny to live a life alone.

Cleantha dragged her suitcase towards the rows of passenger waiting chairs. But before he sat down, suddenly a firm hand held him.

Cleantha was surprised and looked back. Within seconds, his eyes flashed with Alvian's.

"Come, come with me home" said Alvian, pulling Cleantha's hand.

"Why can you be here?" cleantha asked confusedly.

"I should have asked you. Why did you leave secretly without my knowledge? Do you intend to harm yourself? Your health alone has not completely recovered," Alvian said raising his tone.

"Sir, please let me go. I can't stay with you anymore" Cleantha replied.

"If you don't want to live in my apartment, speak frankly. Not in this kind of hazy way. I'll definitely find you a new home."

"That's not what I mean. Let me go to start a new life because we can't possibly be together, sir" Cleantha explained in a choked voice.

"Why can't we be together, Clea? Who told you that? Or now that you don't love me anymore and want to go back to King's Sister?" alvian asked, getting angry.

Cleantha was unable to stem her tears.

"Sir, please understand my situation. I am a widow who has just lost a child. I need time to forget the bad memories of my life. My dad is a single guy who has everything. You better go back to Miss Ayesha or find another girl who's worth her status to you."

"Oh, I know now. It must be my mother who has influenced your mind. But Clea, if we love each other we should fight together. Not even avoiding and giving up is this easy."

"Sir, please let me go."

Alvian paid no heed to Cleantha's refusal. He grabbed the girl and forced her into the car.

After taking a deep breath, Alvian began his explanation.

"Listen, Clea. Today King has resigned from his position as CEO. Tomorrow he will go abroad to accompany Zevira to seek treatment. I don't know when he'll be back in Jakarta. Your divorce judgment will soon come out. So there's no barrier for us to be together."

Alvian held Cleantha's hand and looked at her deeply.

"You're the only woman I love. After your iddah is over, I'll meet your father to propose to you to be my wife."

Alvian's words made Cleantha gasp. He never expected Alvian to have any intention of marrying him.

"But, Sir...."

"As for my mother, you don't have to worry. I've got a way out so Mama will bless us. Now I'll take you home to your father's house. I'll talk to Keyla later" said Alvian.
