Madelin Tough Women
41. Jealous

"You have something interesting in you. I thought you were charismatic." Mrs Kim sounded like she didn't answer Madelin's question straight away.

"What do you mean?" Madelin frowned confused by the intent of the statement made by Mrs Kim.

Mrs Kim smiled. "I've long heard of you, Madelin. A lot of people have been talking about you lately. And it's true, because when I saw you you did look charismatic, you weren't just any model. You have something radiating inside of you that is capable of attracting the attention of others. I'm sure the business I run today, will achieve great success with your presence in this business. You're a talented person" praised Mrs Kim.

Madelin was a little surprised to get such praise from Mrs Kim. Though he clearly felt that he was not such an extraordinary figure. He only did what he thought he could do. No more than that. The words of the Madam's praise somehow, it raises a sense of suspicion in Madelin's heart.

"Sorry Mrs Kim, it's not that I don't appreciate the compliment you've given me. It's just that your words of praise feel a little exaggerated, I'm not as good as you're talking." Madelin sighed for a moment then returned, continuing her words. "Sorry Mrs Kim, it's not that I want to make you feel uncomfortable. But I just want to make a little point about this. You look like you're really trying to get me to work? But somehow I feel a little uncomfortable? Not that, I want to accuse you just, I feel something is a little stuck in my heart," said Madelin firmly and honestly. Honestly Madelin, just wanted to express his feelings at this time.

"Gosh, did I scare you?" Mrs Kim looked rather surprised. "Sorry Madelin, I didn't really mean to make you feel uncomfortable. I just want to establish a business collaboration with you. I don't know, that my presence makes you feel uncomfortable. But I hope you can think of this job offer as well and as comfortably as possible."

Honestly, Madelin was not sure of Mrs Kim's explanation. But he also doesn't know what to do. "I'll think about this offer. But I myself cannot give a definite answer now," replied Madelin trying to keep his composure.

"If it's your decision, well I try to appreciate it. I also don't want to put you on paper and make you feel uncomfortable." Madam Kim understood and nodded. "Well Madelin, I'll wait for your answer."

Micel nodded and added, "Thank you for meeting us, Mrs Kim. And apologize if there was any inconvenience during this meeting."

Madam Kim smiled faintly. "It's okay, our goals are all mutually beneficial and collaborating for greater business success" Mrs Kim said. After that, Mrs Kim left the three of them.

Since the figure left, Madelin felt somewhat anxious and hesitant about everything. "Micel, I don't know why but this situation makes me feel really bad" Madelin said.

Micel patted Madelin's shoulder gently and looked at him fixedly. "It's okay, we can continue to monitor and find out more information about Mrs Kim and the business project she is running" Micel said, trying to calm Madelin's feelings. Madelin nodded and they left the place. He just hopes things won't get worse in the future.

"Have finished? You ill? Why is your face so pale." The question posed by Jonatan is inexhaustible. It was only natural to come to pick Madelin back home.

Madelin. "It's okay maybe I'm just a little tired" Madelin replied calmly. After that he immediately got into the car, slightly ignoring how Jonatan continued to look at him with anxious feelings.

"Is there anything you want to eat? I can buy it for you" Jonatan bargained.

"Then please stop by my restaurant as usual." Madelin refers to a clear chicken soup restaurant that he always visits after returning home from work.

"You never get tired of eating that? Are you going somewhere else?" Jonatan glanced at Madelin.

"don't want. That's where it is, it's been my favorite place. If you don't want to, you don't have to bother taking me there."

Arriving at the restaurant Madelin subscription, as soon as Jonatan opened the door of the small restaurant he was very surprised to find Nike who was eating at the restaurant.

"We should just go home," Jonatan asked suddenly. He pulled Madelin's hand and was about to turn around.

"I won't bother you ah .. I mean you. Stay here, I just want to eat. No need to be too dizzy, we just happened to meet," said Nike calmly. He himself looks not so interested in the presence of Jonatan and Madelin.

Madelin took his hand off Jonatan. "Jonatan .. I'm hungry. I came here because I wanted to eat. Don't let your ego make me unable to eat." Madelin just walked past Jonatan. He ordered his favorite soup.

"But we can find another place to eat," exclaimed Jonatan did not want to lose.

Madelin did not respond, he was busy choosing a chair for him. Nike who saw Jonatan did not like his presence. Then exhale and look at the lazy man.

"I'll be done eating soon. Don't get too carried away" Nike said.

"You don't want to sit down Jonatan? If you don't want to, it's okay. You can go home first. I can book a taxi later after I finish eating" Madelin said.

Jonatan could only grieve. Want to not want him to obey even though his heart is cobbled. The man just walked past Nike. He sat down in front of Madelin.

Just so high blood straight away, Nike thought. The young man then finished his remaining food a little and then cleaned up his belongings.

"This one is really outrageous .. It shouldn't be like this" Jonatan scolded as he drove.

"Bond please play a song. To be honest I can't stand it, hearing you keep nagging like this" Madelin said.

"Ah yes." Jonatan then plays the song and now also his mouth has stopped nagging. But in his heart he continued his work. He was annoyed half to death as soon as Nike, hitchhiking in his car.

"I know it's troubling you. Take it easy later I change your license," Nike said.

"no need. If you do that, I feel like a taxi driver to you" Jonatan said.

"I didn't mean it that way. I'm sorry if it offends you" Nike said subtly.
