Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

Chapter 5 - 005 ( Telephone )

Cleo waiting for Harry to contact him first. She was very loyal, even. But where's that man?

Until now, that man still didn't contact her at all.

Could it be that the man had changed his mind?

Or maybe he had found another woman who was better than her?

Aahhh ~

Those thoughts were like tangled threads in Cleo's brain.

Therefore, instead of continuing to speculate and wasting a lot of time nonsensically. It was better for her to go to his company immediately.

Luckily, Reihan wanted to tell her the company where Harry worked. Because if not, Cleo didn't know how to find out this information.

Thanks to this technological and practical era, Cleo could get the contact number and address of the company from the internet. With just one click, she easily looked for that.

And of course, it appeared on her phone screen.

Cleo immediately wrote down the numbers and tried to contact that. She decided to call the first number before finally deciding whether she needed to go to Harry's company or not.

Cleo nervously pressed the numbers on her cellphone. As soon as the call connected, there was a beautiful voice on the other side of the phone saying their company name. So, that means Cleo didn't dial the wrong number.

Cleo immediately replied.

"Hello. I am Cleo Alayster. Can I speak to Mr. Harry?"

"Excuse me, which Mr. Harry?"

Cleo bit her lower lip.

"Um. Harry Theodore. Is he there?"

"Sorry, did you make an appointment?" ask the receptionist.

"Not yet. But I really want to talk to him. Can you help me to connect to him directly? Please, Say to him. It is important!"

"Sorry, miss. But if you haven't made an appointment, you can't talk to Mr. Harry right away. He is a very busy person. That's why you should make an appointment with him in advance."

Cleo was annoyed.

Were Harry important people? Why it's so difficult to find him? Just to talk on the phone, Cleo had to make an appointment first? Wasn't that too much?

"Please, tell him this is important. Also, tell him. Cleo Alayster comes to collect his promise,"

The receptionist still refused.

"Sorry Miss. But ...a moment,"

The receptionist stopped her talking for a moment. As soon as she saw her boss' secretary that they were talking about passing by. After pressing the hold button, then she called out to him.

"Sorry, Mr. Dirga. There is a woman who insists on talking to Mr. Harry. I told her that she had to make an appointment if she wanted to talk to Mr. Harry. But this woman still insists and says this is an important issue."

The receptionist exclaimed at length to her boss' secretary. 

Dirga immediately turned around when the receptionist called him. He approached the reception desk.

"What is her name?" he asked.

The receptionist retook the telephone, then she pressed the hold button and asked Cleo for the second time.

"Sorry, Miss. Can you tell your name again?"

"Cleo. Cleo Alayster," Cleo replied in an annoyed tone because she had to repeat her name.

  The receptionist woman immediately looked back at Dirga.

"Her name is Cleo Alayster, Sir."

  Dirga looked confused because he didn't know that name.

"Cleo?"

But somehow that name sounded familiar. Dirga suddenly remembered something.

"Ahh ... I know. Let me do the talking!"

Dirga exclaimed while asking for the telephone from the receptionist who looked confused.

"Hello? Is it true that you are Miss Cleo Alayster?" asked Dirga to the caller after he put the telephone next to his ear.

"Who are you? Are you Mr. Harry?" asked Cleo. because she did not recognize that voice.

"I am Dirgantara. Mr. Harry's secretary. He's in a meeting right now. That's why he can't answer your calls," Dirga said again.

The man then spoke for the third time,

"What a coincidence you called. Even though I was just planning to contact you. Ehmm… because there is an important matter that I want to convey to you, can we talk together outside?"

Cleo became confused.

"Talk about what? I actually called because I wanted to talk with Mr. Harry. But why do I have to speak with you privately?"

"Of course, what I want to say to you is what Miss Cleo intends to say to me. Therefore, can we speak more comfortably after we meet? I will send the time and place later."

Cleo grumbled to herself. Dirga already knew her number, but he still kept it and made Cleo wait.

So that they force me to call first?

Fantastic!!

"Okay! I will wait," Cleo casually replied and hung up the phone.
