Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

"Do you want me to transfer you to our branch office in Ternate?" Harry asked in a tone filled with threats.

Alfin spontaneously relaxed his expression.

What? Now this cousin wanted to use power to oppress him?

Alfin stopped his joking for a moment.

He knew Harry's words weren't entirely serious.  But if he had the will, then whatever it was, Harry would be able to make it happen easily.  Therefore, being relaxed was the only way for Alfin to survive the deadly words that Harry had spoken to him too often.

  Transfer him to a place far from the city! Oh, of course he won't!

  "Okay!  I am just kidding!"  Alfin started to be obedient and sweet again.

  But for a moment later, he stared at Harry with a smile that had now turned slightly monotonous.

  "I didn't mean it when I said it all.  But about me who still wants to continue my work, it is true!"  Alfin said honestly and not making it up.  He looked at Harry with a bolder attitude.

"Didn't you recently punish me with all kinds of annoying projects?"  Alfin asked, reminding him.  And Harry certainly couldn't argue with that.

  "Not only that.  You also gave me a really short deadline!  So .. isn't this the right time for me to catch up?" Alfin asked in his defense and also asked for support.

  For a strong reason, because he often went back and forth doing things that were useless and unclear.  Harry deliberately gave Alfin more tasks for him to do.  Just so that Alfin didn't look like a real unemployed in the eyes of all his employees who really valued him.

  But not thanks to Harry who has done so much to him.  Alfin actually kicked Harry out quite frontally just because he used his workplace for a few hours?  However, if he traced it more, didn't this company belong to Harry himself?

  Wow!  What a splurge that deserves to be .. directed!!

  Harry looked at Alfin in an unacceptable manner and then became superior.

  Harry had never expected Alfin to act really obedient and sweet to him, as if that was his true personality.

  However, because the project that Alfin was going to work on was quite important for the company.  Harry couldn't help but decided to back down.

He tidied up all his documents that were on the table.  Then got up to step outside before Alfin used various excuses to delay the completion of his project.

  But when he was in the doorway and saw the satisfied smile on Alfin's face, Harry spontaneously turned his head.

  "I'll give you a new project as a bonus.  Count, this is my reward because you have lent your place to me.  And because you have kicked me out 'subtly'. Say it! If it's still lacking," Harry said casually with a devilish smile as he was about to pass.

  Alfin was spontaneously stunned at his place.

  What?? Work again ??!

  Oh, Shitt! ~ I shouldn't have bothered him!! Alfin cursed, silently holding back annoyed.

  Alfin really shouldn't bother that narrow-minded man!  He always had lots of ways to torture everyone!

  Oh no..!

  Just one job has taken a lot of attention, time and energy from him!  Then now, Alfin still had to work on one more project because he dared to disturb the sleeping wolf with a very tired head?!

  This, is so unfair!

  Alfin cursed with a raging heart.

Meanwhile, Harry, who had managed to leave Alfin's office with a smile filled with satisfaction, strolled back into his office.

  He realized that there was still someone he knew sitting in the original position when he was left.  Sitting on one of the sofas in the room.  And the woman had turned around while he was opening and closing the door.

  Harry and Cleo's gaze met when Harry was just about to walk in.  But since there was not a single greeting that Harry intended to say, Harry strolled indifferently into his study.

  Cleo stared at him without a flinch.

  Harry just passed by and took out all his documents on the table.  Align carefully and carefully.  Then sank for quite a while into a job that didn't seem like it will run out even if the world was about to collapse.

  What a very subtle act. To the point, Cleo was observing it with an expression that couldn't believe it.

  Was this cute wife completely invisible?  That's why, that guy can just passed by and even ignored her ??

Wow!  What a perfect and must praised behavior a husband had!  Perfect for torturing a wife!  And perfect for a boss who didn't respect his subordinates!  No, it's perfect even for an incompetent partner!

  Cleo frowned, holding back her irritation.

  She certainly could clearly saw her reflection in the mirror in the cupboard right in front of him!  But was such a big image not even visible to this man whose eyes are not even myopic?!

  Geez..

  If Harry really didn't want to take her to the office, wouldn't he just have to say it?

  Cleo was sure, there were many ways they can do to persuade grandmother to change her wish to involve Cleo in office matters?  Even though Cleo herself didn't like this situation, what was this inappropriate attitude?

  Was he discriminating against her?  But why?  Wasn't Cleo not doing anything wrong anymore?

  Okay!  Ignore the man now!

  Harry was clearly too rare for Cleo to follow her line of thought.  Therefore, being indifferent was also the right choice to respond to his indifferent attitude!

Until the time kept running and ticking, made Cleo kept counting forward, second by second, and minute by minute.  Until finally she fell asleep as she could not stand it.

  Cleo was still not used to doing nothing and was just silent.  That's why her whole body started to felt a lot of energy has been lost and suddenly became tired.

  Cleo, who fell asleep, did not realize that there were a pair of eyes watching her from afar.

  That gaze couldn't predict what it meant.  And his gaze was only limited to Cleo without any special meaning continuously for a fraction of a minute.  No one will know what he was thinking.

  Until time went on.  And a call for a moment woke Cleo's deep sleep.

  "Miss .." "Miss Cleo ..," a voice beside Cleo called.

  "Miss Cleo," the voice of the call was quite low but it was also able to wake Cleo because it was repeated over and over.

  On the third call, Cleo finally opened her eyes.

@w.e.b.n.o.v.e.l

"Secretary Dirga?" Cleo exclaimed half-consciously when she saw Dirga standing near her.  Her eyes swept around the room and she rubbed them slowly.

  "Is it time to go home?" Cleo asked while stretching her body.

  Dirga answered with a slightly lowered head.

  "Not yet, miss.  This is a time to rest and have lunch," Dirga replied modestly.

  And Cleo immediately looked at him.

  "Oh, then why did you wake me up?" Cleo asked, did not understanding, "Aren't I currently resting?" She asked half jokingly.

  She knew this little joke would not possibly make Dirga laugh.  So after Cleo managed to adjust her position, she sat back down and made herself fully aware.  Cleo immediately put on a friendly face to Dirga.

  "I'm sorry, miss.  I just wanted to ask, do you want me to order something for lunch?  Or do you want to go to the cafeteria yourself to choose the food?  If you want, I can escort you or accompany you," Dirga asked by providing several offers or options for her.

Office regulations did not require all employees to eat in the office canteen.  But because all the food in the canteen was very complete and of high quality, and was categorized as a free facility.  Many employees preferred to keep spending their rest time in the office.

  Especially in their cozy office canteen.

  So that Dirga thought, Miss Cleo will definitely have trouble if she had to go there alone and not accompanied by anyone.

  Mr. Harry has indeed asked Dirga to provide any necessary office information to her contract wife.  But that didn't mean, Dirga can let his mistress just wander around without supervision.

  According to his master's orders, Dirga must stay focused on keeping an eye on Miss Cleo anytime and anywhere.

  And when Cleo saw that no one besides them was in their room, Cleo immediately asked a short question.

  "Where is your master?" Cleo asked spontaneously without really intending to care.

  Shouldn't they be having lunch together at this time like a husband and wife in general?  Cleo was sure, if currently Harry's cousin, Christina, was with him.  That woman would have asked a million questions to ask about the awkwardness of their attitude.

But what was there to say, if her fake husband was not interested in her?  Cleo can't possibly restrain that guy with a rope or chain right?! Was he a pet ?!
