Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

Chapter 125 - 125 ( Facing His Ex-Girlfriend )

Harry assumed that a person's worst mood only occurred when 3 things.

First, when the person was heartbroken. Second when they were hungry. And the third was when that person just woke up from their sleep after accumulating many lives. Someone suddenly disturbs those people.

So for now, after Cleo had managed to wake up a lion who hadn't slept for too long because of someone.

Harry looked at Cleo with a tired look.

"The sound of a rooster crowing is enough to wake me up. But you actually wake me up in a unique way using a blaring greeting? Are you deliberately trying to damage my eardrums?"

Cleo instead looked at Harry without caring about his condition and anger!

Cleo got up from sleep and then stood up. Was getting ready to facing Harry in her stance up.

"Tell me now! Why am I here? And why can I sleep in your bed? Was it you, who carried me here?" shrieked Cleo, worried, disbelieving, and very frustrated.

Cleo had a hard time accepting the fact that this wasn't the first time she'd let herself be so loose and unprepared to sleep with a man who declared himself a normal man.

Ensure well that her body's condition was fine without any deficiencies. Cleo breathed a sigh of relief when she found out that she was pure and still sealed.

Knew how the traits of a woman who loses her virginity. Cleo will not allow other men to undermine her principles and tried to steal opportunities in a tight spot.

Even the rule will also apply to Harry, the most wanted man by all the women in the city, except for herself.

Cleo staring at the man with a barked gaze. And continued her complaint again.

"I know you want to do good by moving me somewhere comfortable. But do you need to carry me over to your bed in the same blanket? I have my own bedroom! So, why do you have to do whatever you want?!" Cleo protested, sulking.

Harry responded casually. Took out his cell phone to check messages after seeing the notification. The expression on his face changed rapidly when he read the incoming message.

And that message contains an emergency report from Dirga.

"Your appointment with Yugio Entertainment has been pushed forward. Tomorrow you have to go to the company for a discussion. We won't have much time left," said Harry, breaking up all of Cleo's concentration to sue him.

Cleo felt that the words were too deviated from the scheme. Looked at Harry very seriously and wanted to run away thousands of times.

"The plans to move forwarded?? Why? Isn't the deadline still in 5 days?" exclaimed Cleo skeptically.

Knowing that the decision was too sudden and unprepared. Cleo seemed to want to cry.

"How on this?! Isn't your company bigger than them? Why do you just go with all the schedules they say? Can't you do something? "

"I can not do that. Because this problem is closely related to legalization. Anyone can not change it, "said Harry explaining his limitations.

Cleo felt that her day off will be a very long day.

One day had passed since then. Now, Cleo was feeling very anxious because she didn't know what might happen. Looking at Harry very seriously, Cleo dramatized her situation.

"In two hours then I will meet your ex! Do you have any last messages?" asked Cleo with a serious facial expression. Harry wrinkled his brows at the mention.

Ex? Why did the term sound foreign?

While waiting the time was right for them to head straight to the meeting place an hour and a half from now on. Harry repeatedly shook his head and couldn't stop thinking with all of Cleo's hyperbole.

Where Cleo acted as if this was the last two hours for her to seeing everyone on forever.

Was she thinking, if she failed her mission this time someone would drown her in a giant aquarium? Or maybe asked her to freefall off the roof of a 100-story building?

"Don't panic and stay calm. We both are not taking a national exam!" exclaimed Harry, asking Cleo not to be nervous and excited.

Harry had made it clear over and over again that to amaze or not to amaze him with Cleo's work, he had no problem with it. Cleo clearly didn't need to feel burdened.

After all, this business had been under his feet from the start.

Telling her to repeatedly catch her breath and asked her to remember exactly what he said. Cleo was not only worried about their project. But also more worried about what Aretta might say if she didn't see Harry's absence and his job was replaced.

Could something bad happen to her?

Cleo chuckled while thinking about that little joke. Then looked at Harry seriously.

"What if that woman asks about you?" asked Cleo while memorizing some general terms which they said would definitely be used in the discussion.

Harry racked his brains.

"Just say I'm working on another project and leave the whole decision to you. She definitely won't ask again. You just have to direct her to your subject," Harry voicing his answer.

Cleo did exactly what he said. Saying everything Harry said when Aretta suddenly asked the same questions as soon as she arrived.

Cleo brought an assistant along with her.

Staring at Aretta with full judgment when they had met twice and Aretta appeared with a make-up that certainly could be categorized as quite striking.

Deliberately using apple red hue on the outer layer of her lips until doing curling her lashes with fake lashes and wearing expensive-looking clothes.

Cleo considered it as a hard effort from Aretta to show a prime appearance to the wrong person.

Too bad! The person that she hoped to see her appearance turned out to be fed up with her!

So that he didn't want to deal with that woman anymore. Aretta actually wasted her perfect make-up results.

"Harry is working on another project. So he was forced to assign me to replace him to take care of this project to completion. Sorry, if my abilities can't be compared to him."

Clearly capturing the line of disappointment etched on the face that was flushed lightly by the soft blush-on. Cleo sincerely apologized.

Made Aretta unable to do much and say anything other than covered her expression of disappointment in a formal form. Aretta forced the corners of her lips to move side.

"No problem, Ma'am. I know, Mr. Harry is a very busy man," Aretta trying to show her faint smile. And she didn't expect that Harry would avoid her.

Then he was also delegating all the work to his new wife and pretending to be busy. Even though she knew that was only a reason that he used to meet her.

Aretta really made to be unable to move and cornered.

Feeling that her original plan to approach Harry again was blocked by a wall and a considerable distance. So that, Aretta seems should rethink other ways to balance Harry's vigilance.

Knowing that Harry was very disappointed in her and in fact hated her very much. Aretta had to accept the consequences because she started it first.

Has broken his heart and even destroying his emotions at that time. Aretta was grateful that Harry's punishment had ended.

So that she can return to the city that raised her.

Aretta then invited Cleo into the meeting room to start their discussion. Felt quite surprised by Cleo's ability to adapt quickly, although still clumsy.

Aretta understood that Cleo had studied all the data on their cooperation as well.

Maybe also had been helped by many parties and maybe too was her husband. Aretta felt the soul of her competitor being ignited. Starting to ask various kinds of questions that might make Cleo confused because she knew Cleo was just an ordinary person.

Aretta's attacks were repeatedly broken by Cleo unexpectedly, which of course was also helped by her assistant. Feeling that it was quite annoying and unacceptable, Aretta was forced to choose to resign and give up.

Ended their meeting with a legalized agreement letter. Cleo accidentally remembered her about the contract letter. Showing a heavy and less satisfied expression, Aretta looked at her expression in surprise.

"Why? Is there any problem? " Aretta asked, trying to be polite because she saw that Cleo seem unhappy to see the contract document.

Cleo quickly shook her head, before being asked a thousand questions. Refused to give real answers. Cleo smiled thinly.

"It's okay. I'm just a little hungry because I haven't eaten enough since the morning. So, do you want to have lunch with me?"

Cleo gave offered with the intention of only want to make small talk and with an excuse to change the conversation.

Aretta actually accepted her offer with open arms and a professional attitude to welcome her guest of honor. Ordering a place at one of the restaurants near Aretta's office. They were now hanging out like close friends.
