Chapter 99 - 099 ( Debate )
But the fact that what he really wanted to give was rejected by the person concerned, Harry felt that his gift was not considered.
Because whoever pays, as long as she gives it directly. Wouldn't that person think that the gift came from the giver?
Then, why should everything be so complicated?
And this is the second time Cleo refuses Harry's gift.
Harry was displeased.
Thinking that he should forbid Cleo to freely use his money. Cleo now refused his kindness?
Where money was not everything. But money can move things.
Starting from pursuing self-satisfaction, fulfilling each other's wants and needs, to being able to move many people to side with us.
Even if it sometimes attracted people who might only be with us when we were at the top.
The fact that money and power were the determining factors for a person's prosperity and happiness, always needs to be considered. And whoever will not reject it.
But what was this woman in front of him doing? rejected it as if she had lots of money to make up for it?
Cleo was not at a higher financial level than Harry. But her attitude, which placed certain limits on what she thought was right and needed to do, all stunned Harry.
"Are you still very clear remembering about the incident about the credit card?" Harry asked on the sidelines of their return in the elevator to his room.
The time sign had pointed to 8 p.m. When they decided to go home after a full meal and walk a little to lower their calories.
Cleo just walked past Harry when the elevator door opened and answered Harry's question slightly without looking at him.
"Of course, no. Why can you say that?" She asked and made Harry unsatisfied with her answer.
"I'm sure you are still angry about what happened at that time. Isn't that right?" Harry guessed.
Cleo shook her head again and had a flat face. She then opened the door to their room.
"I say no. And once again I ask, why do you think like that?" Cleo asked again in surprise.
Honestly, Cleo actually didn't really care about their past events because she was not the type of person who liked to bother about a problem.
After all, the misunderstanding that had occurred at that time had completely cleared up. So for what, she still can't accept it?
Cleo was just trying to anticipate. If that's what Harry was worried about.
But Harry who couldn't read Cleo's mind chose to say something longer.
"Is one why you don't like receiving favors or gifts from me?" asked Harry again in a sneer.
It had been three days since Harry gave Cleo his new credit card on the second day they were in Singapore.
However, Cleo never used his card to shopping for anything or even buy anything for herself.
So, if today they didn't go shopping to buy souvenirs and gifts for Harry's family at home. Cleo certainly would not have used the card without Harry's request.
Harry deliberately wanted to know, this woman will buy what kind of anything to fulfill her desires and pleasures.
But, he instead found Cleo not using one percent of the money he gave her to shop.
As if she didn't need anything or didn't want to buy anything. Cleo only used a small amount of cash that Harry gave her, the other day.
And Cleo, who was criticized. Looked at Harry.
"Are you talking about a gift for my friend earlier?" asked Cleo who failed to catch what Harry mean.
"Yes. But not only that. You didn't use my card either. Why?" asked Harry incredulously. Cleo gave him a frustrated look.
"Didn't I already use it? We were just shopping for everything using that card. Then now, what do you mean?" asked Cleo. Not understanding and demanded an explanation.
Cleo keeps waiting for the answer.
"Used it personally. Did you bought something for yourself?" Harry entered the room first when Cleo had invited him.
The two returned to argue in the hotel room.
"I do not require anything. Do I need to buy something?" asked Cleo, who asked Harry in return, making Harry confused himself in replying.
Harry had his hands crossed over his chest when he had put all their grocery bags on the table. Staring at Cleo with a look that almost gave up. Harry felt that he had now shown many different sides of him.
Since when had Harry been so concerned about how many things Cleo was going to buy for herself? And since when had he been so worried about her needs?
Did Harry think that Cleo can't take good care of herself?
Cleo, who didn't quite understand the meaning of Harry's gaze, just stared at the man flatly.
"Did I say something wrong?" She asked. Really didn't understand. Until she wanted to let go of her brain for a moment.
Cleo was not a woman who liked shopping or buying many items, like most of the women Harry might meet. She was a person who had always preferred things that made more money than things that cost money.
However, seeing that the man didn't seem happy with her answer, Cleo felt that she needed to correct her words. But what and where was it wrong. Cleo didn't know and can't fix it.
She then scratched her head although was not itchy.
Stood facing Harry and spit out her thoughts. Cleo looked at Harry seriously.
"I'm not your secretary, who can easily understand whatever you are hinting at! So can you be more clear about what you have been worrying about? So, I can give you the right answer too. Honestly, I just don't want to accept money and gift from you. And want to return the money you lent me. Was that wrong?"
Cleo, who didn't understand where her fault was, felt that their dispute felt ridiculous. Maybe because they were in opposite poles and opposite mindsets, Cleo until now cannot understand for sure Harry's unclear way of thinking.
After earlier he had an issue with the gift that Cleo had deliberately bought by borrowing his money because she didn't have enough dollars to buy something.
Now, Harry wanted to make an issue about his credit card that she didn't use for herself?
Cleo gave a smile full of pressure.
Why did they have to keep their troubles around that devil's card?!
Was there no other problem with higher quality? Or, can't they fuss about it?
Because in fact, used and did not use it were always considered wrong by Harry.
So what exactly did Harry want from her?
Used it was wrong. Did not using it also wrong.
And now that she hadn't used it, it's very wrong. Was there no other multiple-choice she can circle?
Cleo unconsciously endured all the goiter.
Took a glass and fill it with water. Cleo drank all of the water without noticing Harry's gaze that kept on her. Took a short breath and waited for Harry's pretty answer, Cleo then asked him.
"You don't have anything to say?" asked Cleo with a smile full of anger that was restrained.
Harry, who knew his words had managed to irritate Cleo, walked past the girl without feeling guilty. And intended to go ignore her.
Her thoughts centered on the fact that Harry was generalized the personalities of all the women he met at will.
Had been furious and had not finished her grudges, Cleo immediately prevented Harry from getting away from her.
Demanding Harry's explanation so that this problem did not become protracted, and kept repeating itself. Cleo immediately held Harry's hand who was about to go.
Grabbing his free wrist and not noticing Harry's great stride distance. Cleo accidentally pulled Harry's shirt tightly.
Creating a scene that shouldn't have happened instead, happened. Harry, who turned around and wanted to push Cleo's hand, instead pulled Cleo's hand closer to him.
Lost balance because the two of them made a lot of reflex movements that were too fast to try to hold each other's hands so they didn't fall.
Both of them finally and actually fell on the hard floor.
Bruk!!
Harry's back touched the floor, and his upper body was in contact with Cleo's body which automatically fell on his lying body.
The two of them successfully pull off an unexpected kiss scene.
The other hand puts theirs on the other's waist. And the other hand puts theirs on the other shoulder, as well as the other side of the floor.
Cleo's lips landed on Harry's thin and stiff lips.
Shocked for a split second. And blinked at each other.
They started to read their situation one by one to more precisely.
Then, neither of them could properly understand what situation was plaguing them.
Still finding it hard to accept, but trying to accept it slowly. The two of them both stared at each other's sights for a moment.
Until Cleo was the one who used her brain to react of first. She lifted her body and tried to get up. Harry saw it and then pulled Cleo's hand.
Made them close again.
Cleo was looking at Harry confused.
"What are you doing?" asked Cleo, not understanding. Because Cleo was sure that Harry was not just playing around like Alfin. But seeing those black eyes staring straight at her, Cleo seemed to feel nervous and uncomfortable.
"Is there something on my face?" She asked, trying to find out. But Harry still remained silent and stared at Cleo's beaded eyes who were also black like himself.
Cleo frowned.
