Love Worth Fighting For

Chapter 31: Memory photography

From his hotel room Areez smiled wryly when he saw Suri angry, without Suri’s know all this time Areez had installed a CCTV camera right in front of her room. So that whenever Suri comes out and enters the room, Areez can know.

Just like now, Areez could see Suri who was still sobbing on the floor. Seeing Suri cry like that makes Areez’s chest tight, Areez really wants to go home tonight to Auckland. However, because there is still a lot of work to be done, Areez can’t do anything but stay silent and stare at Suri in pain like this, being away from Suri makes Areez sick with longing. Suri’s presence really warms Areez’s cold heart, all the harshness and defiance that Suri has done so far has only made Areez even more excited to conquer the girl.

Actually Areez could have easily conquered Suri if he wanted to, but Areez didn’t want to do the way he hated so much. Touching a woman who has no feelings for him will bring down his self-esteem, that’s why Areez has been patiently waiting for Suri to reciprocate his feelings.

“You’re the only woman who made me this crazy, Mira. I’m sorry if I have to lock you up like this, I really don’t want to lose you Suri Mireya,” Areez said in his heart.

Actually Areez knows Suri’s real name, considering that Suri has said her own name hundreds of times. However, Areez deliberately changed Suri’s name to Mira which according to him is the same as the meaning of Suri’s second name ‘Mireya’ which means miracle.

Areez placed his smart phone and tablet on the table carefully, after talking to Suri he felt much better. His emotions have been much reduced, Suri is really the antidote for Areez in all situations. Having been too tired after getting angry earlier, Areez decided to sleep without taking a shower as usual. Areez didn’t want her drowsiness to go away if she took a shower. In a short time, Areez fell asleep in his sleep.

.....

When the sun has not fully illuminated the Adelaide earth, Elena has finished with her personal activities in the bathroom. Last night after being the target of the ire of a strange man who accidentally bumped into her and Christian, Elena decided to have a bad day by cutting her long hair to shoulder length. Elena hoped that by cutting her beautiful hair all bad luck would disappear from her.

After make-up, Elena immediately rushed to her desk. Today is a busy day, lots of work to do with Christian and Kainer. That’s why Elena wants to first read some important files that will be discussed this morning with Christian.

“Clarke Enterprise is really a big company,” Elena said quietly as she swallowed hard, after reading the amount of assets the company had in Australia. “No wonder that annoying guy is so arrogant, he really is a billionaire.”

When Elena had just finished reading a file, suddenly someone knocked on her bedroom door. Elena, who had already guessed who was responsible for the mess, could only take a deep breath. Without turning off her laptop first, Elena walked towards the door.

“Elena you...”

“Good morning, sir,” said Elena politely, her smile wide. “Can I help you, sir?”

Christian is silent, his eyes fixed on Elena who looks different this morning. “You cut your hair?”

“Yes sir. Last night I cut my hair.”

“Why?” Christian asks disapprovingly.

“To bad luck, sir,” answered Elena honestly.

One of Christian’s eyebrows rises. “Really?”

Elena nodded her head quickly. “Yes.”

“Oh so you think working with me is getting you into bad luck then?” accused Christian viciously.

Elena’s two hands behind her body immediately clenched tightly, so early this morning when she had not eaten, she had to face the boss’ annoying attitude. “Not you, I’m talking about the strange man who doused my head with wine last night. I hope after I cut my hair that kind of misfortune won’t happen.”

Christian’s lips snap shut, silent for a moment watching Elena to read the expression on her face. “If you don’t want something like that to happen again then you should listen to my advice to use both your eyes properly.”

“Thanks for the advice, sir. It was really useful for me,” replied Elena sarcastically.

Damn Christian Clarke, how could he blame Elena for all the mess last night. It was clear that Elena was the victim.

Christian’s one eyebrow lifts, he realizes that Elena is teasing him. “Since you’re ready, now hurry up. I’ll wait another ten minutes at the restaurant for breakfast, then we’ll head to the mayor’s office.”

“All right, sir. I’ll be ready soon.”

Without a word, Christian walks away from Elena and rushes to the elevator with Kainer. Elena just realized that her handsome boss is already neat and smells good, damn it! Elena was grateful in her heart for deciding to take a bath twenty minutes ago, Elena immediately shuddered at the thought of what would happen to her if she wasn’t ready right now. Christian’s harsh words are sure to warm her ears.

After Christian and Kainer disappeared behind the elevator Elena’s consciousness returned, half panicked Elena went back into her room and rushed to tidy up the things she needed for the meeting at the mayor’s office this morning. Elena’s movements were fast, nothing was left behind. Everything is really neatly stored in Elena’s head, Elena sometimes feels amazed that she can be such a genius herself. Elena seemed to be born with good photographic abilities, so that in just one look she would be able to remember it well.
