Kala Boss Teases
Part 25 - Continuous

Am I jealous?

~•~

Theo was still standing sculpting, as if he did not know what to do.His thoughts were chaotic lamenting his fate. How he lived, finding a job is not easy in this city. His savings money has even been squandered by his new wife who does not know himself.

Alden stood up, buttoned his suit, then shook hands with boss Theo. "Thank you for listening to my complaint, Mr. Machel."

Boss Theo grabbed Alden's hand post, and smiled. "Thank you for the news you've delivered, sir. Because our company's reputation is far more important than anything."

Alden turned around, then walked past Theo who was still sculpting. The man paused for a moment, whispering something to Haura's ex-husband.

"This is just the beginning, if you're still bothering Haura, I assume you want to play around with me further." Alden patted Theo on the shoulder, as if strengthening the man to stay steadfast in the face of the trials of life. While Theo could only clench his hands, it was of course because it did not accept with this humiliation.

Alden came out and Josep followed behind him.

"So this is what made you come here?" josep's questions offset his boss's rapid pace.

"Yes, what else? She was Haura's ex-husband who had thrown away the poor woman," she replied casually, with one hand going into her pants pocket, walking gallantly and a triumphant smile.

Josep could only shake his head at his boss's behavior, it was true that the Walsh family had a big name in this city, but they never used power to oppress, but if it was about injustice, it was about injustice, this family will intervene. In fact they were also notoriously generous and did not distinguish the human caste, which is what Alden's parents taught this man.

"I'll help Haura avenge all those who have betrayed her." Alden blurted while thinning his lips.

"You? What's for?"

"Are you throwing rhetorical questions?" dengus Alden doesn't like it.

Josep should know, all that Alden did was because he loved Haura.

Josep chose not to continue commenting, it's possible that he's been talking too much this time.

~••~

At his desk, haura was still thinking about the incident this morning when Alden declared his love, even in front of a crowded hall, who should not have heard it all, what would it be now? There must be a lot of people out there talking about her, and maybe they will think Haura is a seductive woman who certainly has no shame.

It would definitely be a big question to everyone since when he and Alden were close, and whether he approached the CEO of this company because of a treasure or something like that.

Suddenly his phone rang making Haura surprised, he glanced at the screen of the thing, an unknown number made a call on him, to be honest Haura was afraid to answer, saying, because maybe it's a new number from Theo who has been chasing him lately, somehow and for what reason?

"Hallo... Haura, can you come to the castle?" said the old-looking voice, asking Haura to immediately come to a castle - making sure the caller was Alden's grandmother, and Haura did not mistakenly recognize the soft voice.

"grandmother?" Haura made sure if her hearing was not wrong, then the problem was - who gave Haura's phone number to Alden's grandmother? but come to think of herself as Alden's contract lover, of course her grandmother gets Haura's contact from her own granddaughter.

"Yes, who else? How many grannies do you have, Haura?" the old woman's.

"I want you to come here later after you get home from work, I want you to taste the apple pie I'm making, and lasagna your favorite food" he explained. Hearing the old woman's voice was very gentle on her, making Haura's heart shady, there were at least other humans who cherished her sincerely.

"well grandma, I'll be there after I get home from work" replied Haura assured her that she would come to the luxurious castle, and she made sure without Alden, because he intends to take a taxi to get there.

~•~

Lucky at work, Haura did not see Alden all day, even for a shadow, Haura did not see him at all - it was possible that the man was busy, and Haura could breathe a sigh of relief, at least she wouldn't feel awkward about rejecting Alden's confession to her - it's possible that the man had given up.

Haura stops a taxi, she decides to go alone to the castle where Alden's grandfather and grandmother live.

"st. Summer, sir." said Haura to the taxi driver without waiting for the man to ask her about his destination.

"The conglomerate housing complex," the driver chimed in, and Haura simply smiled without replying to him again.

Along the way, Haura thoroughly enjoyed the twilight scenery, and the car crept slowly due to the slightly congested streets and uphill position.

From a distance Haura had already seen a luxurious castle that stood firm, because the place was most conspicuous among the others.

The car he was riding stopped right in front of the castle gate, which was guarded by men dressed in all black who numbered more than four people.

After giving the fare to the taxi driver, Haura got off, and she was greeted with a smile and a half-bending position from them. Haura felt awkward being treated that way, and one of them opened the gate for Haura.

"Please Miss. Mr and Mrs Walsh are waiting for you" said the man who opened the gates to Haura.

"Thank you, sir," Haura replied inside.

Haura walked alone, far enough to reach the main door. But his steps came to a halt as Alden's car walked past him regardless of Haura. From far away Haura could see inside the car there was Josep and a woman like Angeline.

After they get out, Haura realizes that the woman is Angeline, Josep gets out of the steering wheel, while Alden and Angeline step out of the passenger seat, the three of them walked without knowing the whereabouts of Haura who was walking far behind them. In his mind, whether Alden was angry with him, so he did not want to greet himself when the car he was riding passed in front of Haura's eyes.

The three walked together, seeing Alden walking side by side with Angeline, both so harmonious, beautiful and handsome, should Alden date the woman—not even expressed love to Haura.

"Welcome home." The old woman opened the door for the three, and Haura was still walking slowly far away as if intentionally giving some distance. But Callie's old eyes looked at Haura who was walking. "Who's behind you?" Alden's grandmother sharpened her eyes, making everyone look back, and at that moment Alden was aware of Haura's presence. Make him immediately approached the lover of his contract.

"You came by public transport?" alden asked, extending a hand, for Haura to grab Alden's hand. Haura herself hesitated, but she had to remain professional because she was paid to do this, and was forced to welcome Alden's hand and hold it tightly. "I just picked up Angeline who came home from abroad, sorry if you made you come alone" he added.

"It's okay, Miss Angeline is indeed much more important than me," Haura replied, in a slightly taut tone.
