Bitter & Sweet
The Part 53

Matthew has explained his point to Chloe, but Chloe still does not understand what Matthew is talking about.

Because according to Chloe, what she and Matthew did were two different things.

Chloe only intends to clean Matthew's face from the rest of the food that dirty him.

While what was done by Matthew actually impressed slovenly, because he ate the rest of the cream attached to Chloe's face, which according to Chloe, the rest of the food must have been dirty.

However, Chloe was just bearded, pretending as if she did understand the meaning of Matthew.

However, Matthew did not seem to be fooled by Chloe, as he shook his head, and said,

"It seems you still don't understand what I'm talking about."

Chloe smiled shyly, because of her pretenses that Matthew could still tell.

While making a hissing sound from his mouth, Matthew who looked anxious because of Chloe's behavior, then moved quickly to pinch one of Chloe's cheeks.

"Auch! ... That hurts, Sir!" chloe grimaced in pain, rubbing her sore cheeks.

"sickness? ... I'll pinch you again!" Raising his eyes, Matthew seemed to be getting ready to pinch Chloe's cheek.

But using both hands, Chloe immediately closed both cheeks, so as not to be targeted by Matthew's fingers. "Please, don't tease me, sir!"

Matthew then smiled widely, and just pinched the soft nose of Chloe who was not protected.

"If you've always been like this, it's no surprise that anyone can misunderstand" Matthew chanted, then gave a rude snort.

Staring at Chloe fixedly, Matthew then continued to say,

"Matteo will hate me even more because of you, but ... Never mind! ... Please just take me to my room!"

Chloe paused for a moment, while looking at the plate on the table, where there was still most of the pieces of cake left there. "You don't want to eat it anymore?"

If Matthew is not interested in finishing the cake, Chloe will remove him from the table, before delivering Matthew to his room.

"I want to eat it, as long as you want to feed it to me," Matthew replied, glancing at Chloe with the tip of his eye.

Even while shaking her head, Chloe would like to feed Matthew, with little by little pieces of the cake.

"If judging from your words earlier, it sounds like you haven't received a love statement from Matteo, yet" Matthew said, suddenly.

"Hm ... Yes, I can't take it for granted" Chloe hesitated, as she fed Matthew the final piece of cake.

"Then have you rejected it?" matthew asked, after swallowing the food in his mouth.

"No, not yet" replied Chloe. "It feels useless, if I talk to him while he's drunk. Because most likely, he won't remember anything else later."

"So you intend to reject it?" Matthew seemed curious.

Chloe stood up with the old cookie plate, and cleaned it in the sink, before she sat back down with a glass of water.

"Maybe." Chloe answered a question from Matthew that had been delayed earlier.

Matthew looked at Chloe, with his brows furrowing deeply. "What do you mean?"

"Tsk!" Chloe clucked.

"The sir! ... Just like you who do not easily believe in strangers. I can't just believe it either, when someone says love....

...Moreover, a person like Mister Matteo, who incidentally was someone from the upper class. And I also know that he is upset because of his meeting with his ex-girlfriend....

... I was worried in case Mister Matteo misinterpreted his feelings for me. So I was afraid to expect to be her lover, which would probably just hurt me" Chloe said, explaining.

"No need to convolve! ... Just tell me you like it!" matthew said, ketus.

"Which woman wouldn't like a man like the kindly, handsome and well-established Mister Matteo?" chloe said, then immediately thought to mock Matthew.

Smiling broadly and glancing at Matthew with the tip of her eyes, Chloe then hurriedly continued saying,

"You're the bad guy, you can still make Miss Parker fall in love."

Matthew snorted violently. "Don't tease me!"

"Pff.ht...! That's right what I said, isn't it?" chloe said, laughing.

"So the truth is, are you going to reject or accept Matteo's love?" matthew asked, sounding as if he wanted to shift the conversation about himself and Judy.

"I'll think about it first" Chloe replied, smiling.

"Tsk!" Matthew clucked in annoyance, looking as if he was still dissatisfied with Chloe's answer.

"Hm ... Do you want to be a matchmaking middleman for me and Mister Matteo?" chloe asked, holding back a laugh.

"In your dreams!" matthew, ketus. "Do you think I have no other job?"

Chloe laughed with satisfaction, because she managed to mock Matthew, while Matthew seemed annoyed with her making.

"Are you happy now?" asked Matthew, who looked really upset.

Chloe nodded, adjusting her breath to stop laughing, then looking at the time on her watch.

"Let me take you to the room!" chloe said, standing up from her seat. "I still have to return to the pavilion for a while."

Matthew stood up and grabbed Chloe by the shoulder, and asked,

"For what?"

"Of course I need to clean up" Chloe said, embracing Matthew's waist and helping him walk with him.

"You can use my bathroom" Matthew said.

"The sir! ... The pavilion was only a few steps away from this house. I won't be leaving you alone for long" Chloe said, shaking her head.

"Are you going to the pavilion, or are you going to meet Matteo in his room?" ask Matthew, cynical.

Chloe stopped their steps, then raised her head, so that she could see Matthew's face now slightly lowered her head.

"Why are you always acting like this?" chloe asked, looking at Matthew, and then said,

...I know you have a crisis of confidence. But it felt like this was all too much, and enough to offend me. Because it's directly related to my person....

... Shouldn't you be more trying to control yourself? Because if not, then no one will be able to survive to be your assistant later."

"If the one who will replace you cannot survive, then he can resign. Because I can replace it again," Matthew said, looking foolish.

Chloe snorted softly, shaking her head, as it felt hard to believe, how stubborn Chloe's boss was.

It felt futile, even though he had to argue for a long time with Matthew, so Chloe continued to step foot, heading to Matthew's room, and Chloe also drove her boss to the bathroom.

"You heard me say that, didn't you? No need to go back to the pavilion. You just clean yourself up here!"

After he sat down on the edge of the bath, and lit the water there, Matthew reemphasized the direction to Chloe.

"I want to take a shower and change clothes, sir! ... My body feels sticky because I sweat a lot" Chloe said, trying to make Matthew understand.

"In my closet there are pajamas I've never worn. You just wear that!" Matthew still showed no signs that he was going to budge.

"Your clothes will definitely be great for me!" Chloe was almost frustrated at the moment.

"Cloe!" With his voice rising, Matthew seemed to remain adamant with his wishes.

Chloe grunted rudely.

"Good, Sir! ... Do you also want to shower with me? We can soak in the bathtub." Chloe said the circus in a defiant, cynical tone.

Not immediately responding to Chloe's words, Matthew just stared fixedly at Chloe, and although still wearing his clothes, Matthew then moved slowly into the bath clothes.

"Here you a minute!" matthew said, firmly.

Just as Chloe stepped on her foot, Matthew suddenly pulled Chloe, saying,

"I agree to your offer! ... We can shower together!"

Chloe, who was not ready with a quick movement from Matthew, fell into the bath clothes, soaking wet.

"Are you crazy?" chloe said, trying to get out of the tub.

However, Chloe's efforts seemed to be in vain, as Matthew hugged her tightly, saying,

"You guys, we can soak in here together."

"I didn't mean it!" chloe said, with a high voice.

Matthew then took his arms off Chloe. "Be careful what you say!"

"You triggered it first!" chloe sat up, while getting out of the bath.

"You didn't think of going through my room in wet clothes, did you?" matthew said, until Chloe turned to look at him.

Matthew then pointed to the glass barrier in the bathroom. "You can take a shower there! ... I won't peek."

Although reluctantly, Chloe picked up a piece of bathrobe, then rushed into the shower room.

While bathing under the shower water, Chloe still felt bad because of Matthew's behavior, to the point that he seemed to be unable to stop grumbling.

"Chelle! ... I can't see you, but that doesn't mean I can't hear your voice" Matthew said.

Chloe snorted in annoyance, and hurriedly finished her bath there.

After wearing a bathrobe and rolling her hair in a towel, Chloe remembered that she had no underwear, and of course she still had to return to the pavilion.

"It sucks!" Once again, Chloe grumbled.

Chloe rushed out of the shower, then approached Matthew who was seen still relaxing soaking in the foam water in the bath, closing his eyes.

"Sir!" chloe said, until Matthew opened his eyes, then continued to say,

"I'll go back to the pavilion."

"For what else?" matthew asked, furrowing his brows deeply.

Chloe was timid to say that she had to take underwear, but it felt like that was the only reason Matthew could possibly accept.

"Underwear.." said Chloe, hesitating.

Matthew did not respond to Chloe's words, and instead looked at Chloe from the top down.

Matthew's gaze made Chloe feel as if she was being stripped naked, so Chloe put her bathrobe together with her hands.

"In the shoe cabinet, the top shelf on the left. Get the brown box in there!" matthew said, then closed his eyes again. "I think it fits your size."

Chloe was confused, but just wanted to obey the direction of Matthew because she was curious.

In the walk in closet, Chloe soon finds the box Matthew is referring to, and finds inside it contains a pair of women's underwear that seems to have never been used.

"Why can she keep women's underwear?" Chloe wondered to herself, while staring at the luxurious-looking underwear, and it would definitely look sexy when worn.

In a hurry, Chloe then tried on the underwear, and it turned out to fit her body.

Hm ... Not entirely true ...

It felt a little loose on her hips, but it could still be worn by Chloe, because it had ribbons on both sides of her hips that could be pulled to fit Chloe's wear.

As for br*nya not used Chloe, because from what can be seen, it is certain that the object will be great for him.

When returning to the bathroom, and brushing her teeth while standing in front of the sink, Chloe occasionally glanced at Matthew who was still soaking in the bathrobe.

Chloe was still astonished and curious, but she also did not want to ask Matthew, what was the reason that Matthew could have underwear for women.

"What's wrong?" Although he was closing his eyes, Matthew seemed to be able to realize that Chloe was staring at him many times.

"There's nothing" Chloe replied.

"If you're done, you can wait outside. Unless you want to see me naked" Matthew said, sounding carefree.

Chloe swerved, then hurriedly gargled, then moved out of the bathroom.
