" What's up ... ? " ask Aaron to the assistant William assigned to accompany them while in town B.
" We can leave now, sir. Usually at this hour Miss Felicie will come out of her apartment to go to the campus. "be clear Leon after seeing Aaron finished breakfast.
" Hmm .. OK !" said Aaron flat when he was trying to calm his heart that raged because imagining would soon see Felicie's face back after a long time.
" But you can only see the lady from the car. After that we go to - the company ", said Leon.
" What do you mean today also I have to go to the company ? I don't want to. Today I just want to see what Felicie's doing." Aaron with an angry face refuted Leon's words.
" I'm sorry Mr. Aaron. It's an order from Mr. William" replied Leon bravely.
Tommy who initially just silently listened directly mediate.
" Ron .. You better listen to what Leon says. This is your Daddy's order."
" I want to go here because I want to see Felicie not to take care of the company" said Aaron, still insisting.
" Ron .. please don't be stubborn. This time just do what Daddy Lo told you to do. Isn't this all for the sake of Lo's future as well. Easy - hopefully after this Daddy Lo again entrusts the company to run again." said Tommy advising Aaron.
Aaron fell silent and thought about Tommy's words. What Tommy said is absolutely true. But for now he just wants to run a cafe business that has been pioneered with difficulty.
Aaron just wants to solve his problems with the two women who are still his wife first. Only then was he willing to lead the company again.
Aaron does not want the two women to take the opportunity to ask for his wealth if the time comes for him to divorce Giselle and Vera.
" Hmm .. Yes it is ! Now we go. " Aaron got up straight from his seat.
Tommy gave a small smile looking at Aaron's attitude. He knew Aaron must have listened to what he said. Although yesterday they had a fight and Tommy had been upset with Aaron but he knew it was not a problem for both of them. This often happens when they have different opinions. He got up and followed Aaron out of the house they occupied while in this city. He also could not wait to see Felicie's situation now.
Leon opens the car door for Aaron and Tommy. Only then did he run the car slowly, because the distance of their house was not too far from the Felicie apartment.
Meanwhile, since Elbert's wedding, Dave, Airin and Devan accompany Felicie almost every day. Both in the apartment and on campus. They just left Felicie when it was dark. Although in front of them Felicie always shows a strong attitude and looks ordinary. As if - going to Elbert's marriage is not a big deal for him.
Yeah, Felicie's so smart to cover up the feelings she's feeling.
Disappointed, sad, angry. That feeling was in his heart when he saw Elbert get married and look so happy with Claire, his wife.
Felicie realizes that she and Elbert have nothing to do. Elbert once told him that he loved Felicie. But Elbert never promised to marry her.
Maybe all his attitude and words are just empty promises. Elbert only makes her an entertainer when she's away from Claire, the woman she loves. After all, which man would be with an orphan girl and still be a student, whose future is not yet clear.
It's very different from Claire, the woman Elbert married. She's a grown woman, has a good career. In addition, their social status is the same in the eyes of society.
This is what makes Felicie can act ordinary in front of her three best friends. After all, he was determined to forget Elbert since he knew and saw themselves engaged.
" Hey, why do you think I keep doing this ? Something wrong with my face ?" felicie asked Dave who had noticed her as soon as they left the apartment.
" You're beautiful .. hehehe. " said Dave teasing Felicie while chuckling.
" Thank you. I know, I'm pretty, '" Felicie said.
" Hahaha ..your nature is what always makes me miss being away from you, Feli. I'm so lazy to go home this holiday." said Dave still with a laugh that adorns his handsome face.
" Hmm .. Don't Dave. You should go home. It's a long vacation. Your parents would want you to gather on a big day like this" Felicie said with a serious face.
" But if I go home, you're the one who accompanies me. Airin and Devan will also return to Indonesia. You will be alone here, Feli. " Dave said with a sigh.
" I'm used to it myself. It doesn't matter if you're not here this time. I could've gone home and been with Airin and Devan, but after I thought I loved the money. Boutiques should remain in place. Orderan clothes in our boutique again much Dave. Not to mention who ordered online. Baby, if you stay. Later if all orders have been sent new boutiques I close and as long as the boutique closes I want to create a new design for next year. " Felicie pulled the corner of her lips together to form a smile.
Dave was stunned to hear the words coming out of Felicie's mouth. He could not leave Felicie alone
But what Felicie told him was right, that this Christmas and new year he had to go home to meet his parents.
" How about you come to my house after all our boutique orders are done. My parents must be happy to see you." suggested Dave.
" Hmm .. Don't do it, Dave. I'm not good. It's your family's show, my time who wasn't - who came and joined you. I'm in the apartment." reject Felicie.
" But, Feli .. I'm not calm leaving you alone here. Almost all apartment residents return home. The campus is also quiet. " Dave is still trying to persuade Felicie to come to his house.
" Dave, yes. I'm not papa.
At least if I get bored in - apartment, I'll walk - way to the beach or I call you. "You are calm, Felicie said, remaining firm with her words.
" Hmm .. okay. " Dave finally relented. He knew he would never win an argument against Felicie.
Dave already has his own plans so that he can later accompany Felicie here.
Aaron who was currently only able to see Felicie from inside the car sighed heavily. Moreover, he saw Felicie so comfortable with the man standing beside him.
" Who is that guy ?" asked Aaron in a flat voice.
" Senior on his campus, Mr. Aaron. They are indeed close friends, "said Leon.
" From what we've been monitoring, they've only been friends. But it seems like the man likes the lady. In addition to the man named Dave, there are two more friends Miss Felicie, Airin and Devan" explained Leon.
" That guy likes Feli ? Know where you're from ?" asked Aaron in a huffed tone. He looked at the young man with an annoyed look.
" We have investigated and searched for information about anyone close to the lady once we know her whereabouts, sir" Leon replied.
" Hmm... Where are they going ?" asked Aaron as soon as he saw the car carrying Felicie and Dave walking.
" To the campus Mr. "said Leon briefly.
" Felicie is more beautiful, yes bro ... ! His face was also not as cold as before" said Tommy who had been looking at Felicie.
Aaron did not respond to Tommy's remarks. But in his little heart, he admitted that what Tommy said was true. The little girl is getting more beautiful.
" Is he so happy away from me that his face isn't as cold as it used to show me ?" ask Aaron in my heart.
" Mister Aaron, as soon as Miss Felicie gets off at the campus, we go straight to the company. " Leon reminds Aaron not to forget Mr. William's orders.
" It's up !" sahut Aaron is upset because he is still not satisfied to see Felicie.
" After returning from the company, you can still see Miss Felicie in her shop. Miss will be there until eight p.m. Only then returned to the apartment." Leon explained so that Aaron was not too upset.
Aaron was quite amused to hear Leon's words.
" Where did the man live ?" ask Aaron.
" Living in the same apartment building as Miss Felicie, sir" Leon said.
" What ? they live together ?" asked Aaron in a loud voice.
" No sir, just in the same building. Not living together."
Aaron threw his face into the streets as soon as he heard Leon's words. While Tommy held his laughter to see the reaction shown Aaron. It turns out people say that love can make people stupid.
" What am I thinking ? Felicie's a good woman. She would not be likely to want to live with a man, even if it was her lover. I'm the only one who was her husband was not allowed to touch her body because of the g*la agreement. Especially if it's just a lover !" aron regretted the stupid thought that had crossed his head.
" Hey, look bro ... Felicie can already smile widely now" Tommy said with a look of disbelief.
" Hmm .." said Aaron briefly with eyes that kept staring at Felicie.
" That's the woman I told you about, sir. His name was Airin, next to him Devan. They're engaged. Both are from Indonesia. They're Miss Felicie's best friends, other than Dave." Leon explained.
" Indonesia ? Then Felicie must have gone here with them !" said Aaron considering the departure of Felicie who once disappeared just like that.
" No, Mr. Aaron. The two of them first left and went to college here, "denied Leon because that's not the case.
Aaron frowned at the rebuttal he gave Leon.
" So Felicie can get here to go with who ?" aaron asked, getting curious.
" That's what we don't know until now, sir. Looks like there's someone who has great power who purposely covered this up."
" Great power ?" muttered Aaron slowly.
" Is it possible Elbert ?" asked Tommy who was curious to hear it.
" It was originally Mr. William and we were also suspicious of him as such, Sir. But it was immediately irrefutable once Mr. Elbert had never visited Miss Felicie. Moreover, Mr. Elbert is now married to Miss Claire. So there's no way Mr. Elbert helped the lady get to this country."
" It's true what you said !" tommy agrees.
" So, if it wasn't Elbert. Who helped Felicie ?" asked Aaron confusedly.
"Said Mr. William it no longer matters. The important thing is that Miss Felicie's whereabouts are well known and she's in good shape."
" Hm ... " Aaron was still focused on looking towards Felicie who started walking away.
" Mister William is right. Felicie's already looking good." said Tommy.
" How is Mr Aaron, we can leave now ? Miss Felicie's already in her class." Leon's voice irritated Aaron.
He still wanted to be here to see when Felicie finished college.
" Yes, we'd better go to the company, Leon. Felicie is also no longer visible." said Tommy insinuating Aaron who still looked at Felicie disappeared.
Aaron looked at Tommy with an angry look. He also knew Felicie was out of sight. It was just that he was still not satisfied to see the little girl's face. Time is too short. Where he had to go to - the company and Aaron was very sure for sure they were home the afternoon. That meant there was little time he could use to see it.
" Okay, Master ! " sahut Leon's.
Although Aaron is upset but he does not try to protest when the car takes him away from the campus Felicie. He knew for free he denied, his daddy must have had many ways to keep forcing him to go to - company.
