Cold Man And Miss Stone
68. How Does He Like Me?

"I know he's angry." Samuel kept walking around his own room. "I should have killed Rangga for him. But that fucking Mahesa stopped me. Now Emilia was angry. What should I persuade him with? He doesn't care about anything but Ahkam!"

Samuel's breath was heavy. Even so, sanity quickly approached him as well.

The man pulled out a chair, sat quietly, rubbing his face while continuing to catch his breath.

"I'm doing something silly. Forget it."

Both are silent.

"What's wrong?" ask Samuel again.

This time, it was clear to both of them.

Unusual to them, Samuel Ahkam asked about women's feelings. But since Samuel wasn't a boss to joke with, they both knew they had to answer succinctly.

"Maybe you're too aggressive." Riu answered.

"I tried to seduce her subtly."

"Boss and Young Miss have a similar disposition." Ryo added. "The intense feeling of someone bothering you. Maybe Miss is the same."

Samuel fell silent. He clearly remembered Nina immediately, remembering Soraya, Seline, and all the girls who held a taste for Samuel regardless of who they were.

It does. Samuel hated it when girls acted aggressively on him.

"Girls love it when men show excessive love, that's what I hear."

Ryo and Riu honestly think that Samuel is ridiculous. But they couldn't prevent the moment she was overwhelmed by her feelings for Emilia.

"That goes when the girl likes you, Boss."

Samuel ruffled his hair rough. It was the same Riu said Emilia had never liked him.

"Then ...." Samuel took a breath. "Then how does he like me?"

"I never thought I'd see you again."

Emilia could not see the owner of the voice, but she knew him. He was Dwi, a barista who at that time concocted drinks for Emilia.

Back then, Emilia had indeed asked for a secluded place that Dwi knew of. Although he apparently did not believe it until he saw Emilia get off the helicopter.

"I've heard it. Mahesa Mahardika paid me to take care of you."

Emilia fumbled around until her hand touched Dwi. This darkness made Emilia have to touch to 'see'.

"Then I'll see where we live." Nine's voice sounded behind him. "Enjoy your time, Emilia."

"Yes." Yeah."

The voices in the surroundings told Emilia, they were near a cliff. The sound of waves hitting the reef is clearly heard. The smell of the sun and the salty winds of the ocean also smelled.

"I can't believe your face appeared on the news" Dwi said. "There was news that you killed Soraya and Rowan."

"Do you believe?"

Dwi is probably smiling. "I won't ask."

That's better. For the people out there, those who kill and are held captive by the police are just those who kill for pleasure.

Emilia wasn't. It kills by involving elements of politics, money and power. The media must not be careless about covering it, so no one needs to know who their killer is.

"Is there a place you want to go?"

"I want to make a tomb."

"The tomb?"

Emilia nodded. "A place that only I can go to."

"The road will be complicated. Hold my hand tight."

It seemed to be on the cliffs, because the sound of the onbak sounded loud. Emilia had to walk carefully because she could not see anything, and only relied on Dwi's guidance.

Although the location was close, it took over ten minutes to arrive because of Emilia.

"There's an empty lot here. Children are prohibited from approaching because of haunted stories around. I think it fits into a secluded place."

Emilia carefully knelt down. He did not ask Dwi to help him dig up the half-wet soil. Digging deep enough into the ground, he took out the snippet of Rowan that he had requested from Nine before leaving.

"Do you need help with your hands?"

"No. It's just land." Emilia closed the small tomb. "Go first. Pick me up after an hour or two."

"All right." Dwi sighed. "But don't move. Right next to you high cliff."

"Yes." Yeah."
