"I'm sorry..." Alaris.
William was also surprised as well as quickly withdrawing himself.
"Ehemghem... Samantha prepared a canvas for me too, I will accompany Alaris to paint."
"Good sir." Samantha rushes to pick up the equipment and also the chair for William.
The servants smiled at each other to see their Master and Madam sitting together to paint, even without chatting but the sight was a pleasant one for them.
Eventually all the paintings were completed in pairs in each corridor passageway along the mansion connecting the Northern Mansion as well as the Southern Mansion.
"I'll take a shower first." Alaris.
"Yes, you've worked hard, we'll have dinner together."
Alaris then wanted to go to the northern mansion.
"Allen..." Call William.
"Yes..."
"You're decorating the Mansion to be more lively, thank you."
"Together." Alaris answered with a flat and cold face as usual.
As the servants cleared the remains of the painting, William walked over and looked around, arriving at the central room of the northern mansion and looking at the display in the middle of the room.
William's eyebrows and forehead were furrowed.
"Call Jason." William's orders to one of the bodyguards.
"Good sir."
Not long after Jason arrived. Jason is William's assistant and William's right-hand man.
"Yes sir."
William was silent, but his eyes hinted for Jason to see what he was seeing.
Jason swallowed his saliva.
"I'm sorry sir, I made a mistake this time."
"The only Company that dares to brag about blue diamond is only one. You know what to do with the statue, I can't believe he dared to send the statue with so many blue diamonds. Is she trying to seduce my wife and demean me." Furious William.
"Good sir."
William hurried off to the south mansion.
After a few hours passed, and the dinner hour was about to start, Alaris was already walking towards the dining room, but her legs suddenly stopped as the statue in the middle room disappeared.
"Where's the statue?" Alaris asked his personal servant.
"Ah, where's the statue??" Emily asked back.
"I'll ask the other lady, you can go to the dining room first, because Mr. William is waiting." Samantha convinces Alaris.
"Make sure you find the statue, and find the person, whoever it is I have to ask him why he dared to touch and tinker with the statue without my permission." Alaris said firmly.
"Good Mistress."
Alaris then continued on to the dining room, the wide door opened by the waiter and William was waiting at the end of the table. Sit up straight.
Slowly Alaris sat in his place facing William. The table was long enough to create a distance between them.
The servants put the dishes one by one on the table, until the table was filled with food, fruit and wine, after which William ordered them all to come out of the dining room.
With a slow movement, William and Alaris began to eat the dishes on their table.
"Did you put the statue in the middle room?" Ask William.
'I almost forgot, I should have thanked you for the statue and the jewelry gift.'
"Aahs... I honestly decorated the mansion because I was inspired by the statue, and after seeing the statue as well I had the zeal to paint and decorate the mansion, you handed it to me. You said I could decorate to my taste. Remember?"
"Yes I remember. Do you like the statue?" William asked with a flat face.
"Yes, it's a beautiful statue and I'm sure it's very expensive, but... While on the way here the statue wasn't there, Samantha was trying to figure out who moved it."
"I ordered that the statue be thrown away."
Instantly Alaris stopped scooping her soup, and was stunned, her gaze could not be separated from the green soup before her.
'What is it with him, he gives, he also wants to throw it away. Does the romance come and go quickly? William, what kind of person are you really?'
"You mad?"
"No, and we're supposed to have dinner without talking, because these foods will soon be cold William." Alaris responded coldly and without looking.
They then continued to eat dinner, after a few minutes William noticed Alaris and saw something on the corner of Alaris' lips.
"Allen..." Call William.
"mm?"
"There's something." William said as he pointed to his own lips.
But Alaris did not understand.
Then William stood up, and walking towards Alaris, he pulled up the chair that was near Alaris and sat down beside the right side of Alaris.
William took a tissue and cleaned the corner of Alaris' lips, at that time William wanted to kiss Alaris' lips, William was getting closer but quickly Alaris took a tissue of his own.
"I'm sorry, let me clean it myself, your hands will be dirty." Alaris' body was stiff and nervous, then she stood up and walked towards the bathroom that was in the dining room.
While inside the bathroom, Alaris quickly looked at the glass in front of the marble sink and saw herself. Then patted both of his cheeks.
'My heart is pounding fast. My face is also very red, so tight my chest.'
Alaris repeatedly took a breath and let it out, she desperately tried to regulate her breathing and her heart thump.
'What's wrong with me. My face is very hot.'
Alaris fanned her face with tissue and her palms.
"allaris? You okay?"
William's voice came from outside.
"Yes, I'm fine, I'll be right out." Alaris.
Not long after Alaris came out.
"It looks like you're full, how about we continue chatting in my study?"
"I have to check something in my room, maybe we can talk William tomorrow."
"All right." William was disappointed.
At that time Alaris only wanted to avoid William because he felt unwell, every adjacent to William he felt tight.
Alaris came out of the dining room and there Emily and Samantha were waiting.
On the way to the northern mansion, Samantha then opened her mouth.
"Madam, the statue..."
"There's no need to search anymore, and there's no need to find out, because I already know Samantha." Said Alaris who replied with a walking still.
Alaris' personal servants looked at each other.
"Do you know if the statue was removed at the behest of Mr. William, Madam?" Clown Emily but then closed her mouth fearing her voice was too loud.
Alaris suddenly paused from her steps and looked at her personal servants then nodded slowly.
Samantha and Emily look at each other and can't believe it.
"But why Madam?" Ask Emily.
"I don't know, and I don't ask him, let him be as he pleases."
"But, why the goods that have been given and then taken and thrown away, is not it disrespectful, let alone it is a blue diamond. Too bad." Grouse Emily.
It wasn't long before a male bodyguard came to see Alaris.
"Mrs, there's a letter for you." Said the guard.
Alaris furrowed her brows and accepted it, then opened the letter.
After reading the contents of the letter Alaris changed the mimicry of his face to be unreadable, even he felt he had made a mistake.
"The statue is not from William." Alaris.
"What!!" Strangled the servants of Alaris.
