Beauty And The Boss
Chapter 22: Failing again


Arriving at the apartment, Vegas quietly glanced at Helena who was still silent earlier, and, all day Vegas became erratic and felt guilty because Helena who seemed to still be angry at what she said last afternoon. As the elevator doors opened, Helena exited first and Vegas followed Helena. "Your room is not on this floor" said Helena confused, she still had a cold face and it seems like tonight she will just go back to her house.


"Can you re-organize me a lot?" Vegas looked already desperate, leaving Helena frowning confused.


"What do you mean?" helena asked confused by Vegas' request.


Vegas took a deep breath, and he looked at Helena seriously. "I'm sorry for what I said this afternoon. Seeing you quiet like this makes me feel guilty. I don't want to put you in danger like this, every time I introduce a woman John does bother that woman, and I wanted us to fight in the dress room and I could end this pretend relationship, but you just went and settled in on me like this."


Helena who heard that did not immediately answer Vegas's words, her sense of regret was suddenly lost just by hearing Vegas apologizing like that, her heart was too weak with a gentle Vegas attitude like this. "Alright, I forgive you," Helena replied in the end, she turned and was about to return to her room, but a hand stopped her.


"What if tomorrow I take you to a beautiful place that I used to visit when I had time to spare? as my apology." Vegas stared expectantly and Helena could not make Vegas disappointed, she nodded her head in agreement and soon Vegas' smile expanded. "Alright, then I'll go back to my room."


Vegas pressed the elevator button to head upstairs, while Helena was already walking towards her room, unbeknownst to Vegas, Helena developed her smile slowly, it felt really happy that Vegas was being so nice.


Arriving at the room, Helena's phone rang and displayed Rose's name there. "Hello, Rose?" greet Helena happily.


"Hello, Helena. What about today? is there anything interesting?"


"There is good news today that Marteen gave, next week he will go to Paris for 3 days, today also me and Vegas a little bit of a fight at the photo shoot, the photo shoot, the photo shoot, but she apologized" Helena explained.


Rose smiled gently there, she was happy to hear Vegas finally being gentle to Helena. "Vegas is actually good Helena, you just have to be a little patient to approach her again. Did you tell me who you really are? or do you want me to say it Helena?"


The next day, Vegas and Helena had breakfast at a hotel that was already the meeting place of Vegas and Marteen, there was a contract that had to be shown to Vegas for an advertisement at a company. Because Marteen did not come and they had finished breakfast, Helena took the initiative to remove a necklace that she had brought this morning, Rose said last night to make Helena's spirit reappear. "There's something I want to show you" said Helena, who made Vegas' attention to Helena.


"You brought a present?" ask Vegas not seriously.


"No, I want to return the item you gave me" Helena said with a smile, as she just pulled out the box on the table and Vegas would pick up the box, Marteen came in a hasty move.


Marteen took the original glass that still contains full juice. "Is this mine?" asked Marteen and immediately gulped the juice down to half. "I can't stay here long, John's making trouble on a quiet morning like this!"


"What's wrong? seems like something very serious?" asked Vegas who was confused to see Marteen a little pale and unsettled, he returned the box in his hand to Helena and gave a code to take back the box.


"John hit a schoolboy this morning, stupidly he ran away and his police number was caught on CCTV, not many people know about this problem, I hope they can be silent and reconciled, I think there's going to be a lot of money coming out" explained Marteen, asking for a bag being carried by a teenage man who looks like Marteen's new assistant. "Let's sign first, they want your signature as proof of your willingness in this ad, I hear the CEO of this company idolizes you very much," obviously Marteen while taking out a file and a handkerchief.


"This hand-sweep for me?" vegas was puzzled by a handkerchief that had a beautiful design at each end, but that design seemed only suitable for a woman, not a man like her.


Marteen shook his head quickly. "No, it belongs to the CEO who idolizes you. Let's just sign, I'll explain everything later, once John's problem is over."


Helena looked at the necklace box sadly, does she have any more free time today? the opportunity to talk casually was very difficult for Helena to get.
