Chapter 110 - 110 ( Ugly Face )
Chapter 110 - 110 ( Ugly Face )
More selfish and less likely to meddle in other people's affairs. Harry Miles was a person whose character was difficult to read.
He could be nice to you for work. But when it came to his personal life, Harry Miles will separate the two things fairly.
Mark immediately forwarded the data Felix sent him. He sent it directly to Willy. Willy accepted it and read it. After reading, Willy contacted Mark again.
"That is it?" Willy asked, not very satisfied with Mark's work. Mark then compulsively replied.
"Yes. That's all we can get. Can you specify what kind of data you really want, sir? We will try to find it again," Mark said, offering an alternative.
Willy turned it down.
"No need. Just this. Then..."
Willy thought for a moment. Mark waited for the continuation of his words.
"Regarding their wedding ceremony. Was Robby invited too?" Willy asked Mark, who never wanted to come up with a more appropriate nickname for a man named Robby. Mark seemed to have gotten used to that rude nickname.
Caught the question in surprise. Mark then asked.
"Harry Miles' marriage to Cleo Alayster about three months ago?" Mark asked to make sure.
Willy's throat seemed to choke.
"Yes," Willy didn't seem too happy with Mark's narrative.
And Mark felt that his master really seemed to have had a special feeling for Cleo. Mark had learned a little information about the woman from his men. He also seemed surprised by the attitude of Willy who bothered to contact him directly regarding the woman's problem without buckets of coercion.
Mark didn't care what the reason was. But that was big progress for Willy to be able to contact him first, although he never did.
Mark, who was quite enthusiastic about the continuation of their relationship. Chose to wait for Willy to give up on his feelings. Because the woman he cared about had a husband.
Mark still remembered seeing the wedding invitation on Robby's desk.
"Mr. Robby once received the invitation and went with the Madame," Mark exclaimed. Willy just listened.
"You came there too?" Willy asked.
"No sir," Mark answered. Willy immediately protested.
"I told you not to call me like that! Have you forgotten? " said Willy very unhappily? Willy had asked Mark hundreds of times to stop calling him master, sir, or something like that. Still, Mark wouldn't listen.
"As I have also said, you are the legitimate son of the great master. So of course you deserve to be called like that. And vice versa. You should start to get used to calling your father's name correctly," Mark reminded and reprimanded Willy.
Willy didn't want to tease him even more.
@w.e.b.n.o.v.e.l.o.n.l.y.t.o.r.e.a.d
"Calling him right? A father who left his son and wife just for the sake of a woman?" Willy raised his voice sharply.
He laughed wryly.
"And a man who had been missing for decades, I don't know where. Only now did he want to ask his son to come back after his second wife could not give birth to a son for him?? Do I have to call him properly?! Me?"
Willy felt a very amused feeling that suddenly gnawed at him.
"Don't talk nonsense! Until whenever, I will never call him "father", or whatever you want. I might be happier if I could call him a con man and a tramp of his own family. Is that much better?"
Willy let out an insulting grin that Mark couldn't see from across the phone. As if felt that his feelings getting hotter. The fact that his own real father had abandoned him and his mother when he was a child, shook his family at that time.
And until now Willy still can't accept it.
After his father left them for another woman. Willy's mother was frustrated and fell ill because of thinking about her husband.
Until Deborah finally died because she could not bear all the burdens of her life. Lived alone, raised her only child when Willy was little. Deborah, who at that time was still not mature enough, had difficulty accepting the reality that happened to her at that time. She chose to end her lifeline badly.
Therefore, Willy hated his own father more than anything. Willy promised himself that he would never want to deal with that man until the end. But Willy did not expect, Robby instead met him again openly about half a year ago.
Willy was very upset with the selfishness of a man who had cut ties with the past. Hoped that he would never have anything to do with him again.
But the fact that Robby came back disturb his life because his second wife could not give him male offspring and could only give birth to one daughter. Making Willy was now used by Robby as a target to continue his line.
Felt the thought was ridiculous and seemed so light for him. Willy didn't think Robby really took it seriously. Only approached him because he had a use-value. Willy couldn't imagine what would happen if that value was just absurd.
Mark just listened silently. He didn't really know what happened to the two of them. What he knew was through their passing words which were only pieces. Mark couldn't reply to whatever Willy said. He just kept trying to defend the people who had hired him.
"I'm sure Mr. Robby has a reason why he did that. So please, if you want to know everything completely. Meet your father now. He has been waiting for you for a long time. And the door to his house is always open for you," said Mark, tried to make both father and son meet each other.
Willy felt like he would never agree to it. Turned off the phone without saying anything else. Willy then contacted and met several of Cleo's friends to find out about her marriage.
Started from some of her former coworkers and also some other friends he knew. None of them knew about Cleo's marriage. They only knew that Cleo quit her job because she said that she got a new job. Willy felt that the wedding was not attended by all of her friends.
Because in reality, Cleo didn't have many close friends. Apart from friends from her former workplace. Cleo limited herself to befriending anyone for some reason.
Cleo can be friendly to anyone. But the people she would really thought of as close might be only a handful. So besides, Willy and some friends at work. Who else could she invite to that important party? Could it be that there wasn't anyone?
A sudden message came in while Willy was still dizzy thinking about all the awkwardness.
Message from Christina which Willy read lazily at once. Caught this as support to find more about Cleo's marriage. Willy read the message more carefully.
[ -My grandma is having a party next month. Can you come? We invited quite several people to attend. And I want you to be there too. Can you? ]
Christina wrote hopefully and anxiously as she wrote the message. She didn't know whether Willy would agree to her invitation or not. The estimate was around 85% that Willy would reject outright. But her thinking turned out to be wrong.
Willy actually agreed directly. Christina felt that the writing she was reading was a typo. Until then she replied again.
[-Are you serious about will come to the party? ] - Christina wrote doubtfully. Willy replied quickly.
[-Yes. Just write down the time and address. I'll be at the party if I can make it on time. ] - Willy replied briefly. Christina immediately replied to the message by stating when the time and what the full address was.
Felt absurdly happy. Christina ended her message with an inflated feeling. Christina will show off the man in front of her friends. Including Michael who kept chasing her like crazy.

Harry was back in a bad mood after he met Willy and returned from his lunchtime with his aunt and uncle. Experiencing significant mood swings quickly without any obvious triggers. Cleo and Alfin were confused about his attitude.
"Did something happen?" Cleo asked, who quickly realized the change in Harry's mood. Cleo didn't know what caused Harry's gloomy face.
Likewise with Alfin who shrugged his shoulders.
"I do not know. Aren't we together since earlier? If you don't even know, how can I know? " Alfin answered without thinking.
Alfin actually had time to think along the way why Harry had an ugly face. But because only one unreasonable reason came to mind. Alfin assumed that his thinking was wrong.
How could Harry be angry because he saw the tattooed man earlier? Was he jealous that the man appeared, and he was annoyed because he didn't like seeing him kept staring at Cleo without blinking?
Hey! That was definitely not possible!
Is Harry jealous?!
Alfin laughed at his ridiculous thought.
Then returned to their respective jobs. Then finally went home after office hours to release tiredness. Sofia turned out to be still at Harry's house.
She relaxed while watching tv and chewing some snacks. Harry stared at the scene with furrowed brows.
"Grandma is still here?" Harry asked while holding back his irritation a little. Sofia, who was asked, turned to Harry and Cleo at the same time then returned to watching the drama she was watching. Sofia greeted the two of them casually.
"Hi! Are you guys back?" Sofia asked in a playful voice.
Harry stared in disbelief, "What?"
