Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

Chapter 24 - 024 ( Sell Myself To The Perverted Guy )

"Yes!! Do you mean to protest me? It's still good I invite you to eat well. Why are you grumbling. I know you haven't eaten good food these days because you're too busy. And look at your attitude? You insult the enormous food gift!!" Cleo protested by pointing Willy with a piece of chicken she was holding.

"Huh! .. I have eaten this kind of food too often! You're just too stingy so you rarely eat foods like this. See how you're so generous in adding payments to your debt to Billos ?! And how can you be so stingy with your own best friend who has helped you to escort!? I'm really disappointed," Willy pursed his lower lip in dissatisfaction.

Cloe was amused.

"Why should you be disappointed? Do you know exactly how much I owe him? Don't act like a child! " Cleo replied lazily while continuing to chew her chicken.

Hearing Cleo discuss about the amount owed, Willy's eyes immediately sparkled.

"How much do you owe that Fat Old Man?" Willy asked curiously. So far, Willy has never known exactly how much Cleo owed Billo-billo because of course the debt continued to soar.

And the more he took it into account, the more his head hurt and twitched wildly because he was not used to the big numbers.

Instead of answering, Cleo looked up at the sky. She thought for a moment then gave an answer.

"I also do not know. Even though Billo-billo's men always come to him and mention the amount I owe him, I have no intention of remembering it. But after I was sure I could pay it off, I then asked them. And ... you know, I only added up 10 dollars for the rounding off. Can you still feel jealous after this?" Cleo threw her sarcasm half joking.

Willy glared.

"What? So you only added 17,583IDR to him? " Willy burst out laughing when he heard Cleo's narrative.

"You really are special. I don't know what else to say to you. That boastful demeanor of yours that says you added enough money to round it off is stunning! And now you're saying you just add that 17k to their pockets? Extraordinary!"

Willy put his thumbs up on Cleo. That woman was a true artist. No wonder, Billo-billo had teased her with generous words. Turned out it was just sarcasm?

Actually, Willy was not really jealous of the nominal added by Cleo in settling her debt. He just wanted to make fun of Cleo, who felt so annoying.

Where and how that woman got the money, until now she has not told him anything. Wasn't that annoying enough and a little disturbing? That's why Willy just made fun of her.

With an uneasy feeling, Willy looked back at Cleo with deep eyes.

"You really didn't do anything against the law, right? You can't possibly ... do something illegal like the -Old Fat Man- right? You-don't-sell ... "

Not finished Willy finished his words, Cleo immediately refuted it.

"Of course I didn't!" Cleo argued.

"For whatever it is! It's not that you know me very well. I definitely couldn't possibly do anything illegal, as they thought. I can't possibly sell myself to the perverted guy out there just for money! That's definitely not possible! Do you think I've lost my mind ?! If you don't believe it, I can even swear it right now," Cleo put her swear finger in front of Willy, only for the man to believe her.

Because she said she had said the right thing.

Cleo didn't do illegal activities like Willy thought. Neither illegal nor legal, of course. Her act of lying to someone can be said to be a form of fraud. The difference was that this time the fraud occurred with the permission of the family member concerned, namely his own grandson. Harry Miles.

And about her not selling herself to any perverted man, of course her words at this time were true.

Cleo wasn't not selling herself to a lecherous man, but a man who looked abnormal. Like many rumors that have been circulating, Harry Miles was thought to have a sexual deviant disorder. He was rumored to be a man who liked men of the same sex. And the person who was reportedly close to him was Dirgantara, his own personal secretary.

Wasn't that really very unusual and made a quite attention?!

Cleo didn't know how the issue got spread, but many believe that it was all true. And even though Cleo didn't know how the original story was true, Cleo still considered the news as a big fortune for her.

If that man has a different sexual tendency than men in general, Cleo would certainly felt very safe if she married and lived with him. Especially after she recalled all the terms and strange articles they proposed, all of it clearly made it clear that Harry was not at all interested in her!!
