"I'm not matre!" Amanda looked at Leon and glanced.
Leon gasped in surprise and said, "I don't say anything, Non"
"Your mouth is a henchman but, your mind is not a henchman. Apaan says I'm matre and haughty. Meaning what?!" Amanda folded her hands and still drew a sharp gaze at Leon.
Leon gave a quick glance while continuing to drive the car and said, "I'm sorry, Non. I didn't intentionally say that in my mind. But if not matre, why Non make rules about holding this and the fine"
Amanda looked forward and said, "That's because I'm a money laborer"
"Why do you need money?"
Amanda glanced at Leon, "Everybody alive needs money. Especially now that I am not working. You're asking me to go to the fresh milk boss and Happy's papa to Cece Meylan, owner of a clothing boutique near my hostel. I need one of them to pay for my boarding room"
"It's been paid in full by Mr. Barnes, Non. So, you don't need any more money, do you?"
"It's because of that!" Amanda subconsciously raised her tone and when she saw Leon jump in shock and put the brakes on the car impromptu, Amanda immediately said, "Sorry!" with a slow tone.
Leon then restarts his car as the car behind him starts honking.
And Amanda opened her mouth again, "Just because of that, I need money. I need money to pay all my debt to your Master because, I do not want any bond and debt of gratitude to him. But, I don't work. Therefore, I made a rule that if you hold this it must pay a fine to be able to make money"
"But I'm sure, you won't get a penny Non. Because, Mr. Barnes is a man who upholds the Kramas and decency. Mr. Barnes would not carelessly touch a woman" Leon said in a confident tone.
"Cooking? the proof was yesterday he called me. If manggul tuh means touch everything plus hug, waaahhh! I can get a lot of money if he gets me again, hihihihi"
Amanda immediately giggled happily by herself imagining the rupiah would go into her pocket if Barnes returned to bear her.
Leon began training to empty his mind if he was with Amanda and he could only sigh deeply then.
Amanda then asked Leon, "When your boss is called Commander, what is his rank?"
"Mayjendi. Mayjend Barnes Adiwilaga. Cool right, Non" Leon smiled broadly to boast the rank embedded in the name of his big boss.
"Obviously" Amanda said, then she asked again, "Then Jake and the other four J's?"
"Mr Jake is a Colonel and four other Jays, just a corporal" Leon said.
"And why doesn't the corporal named Joy like me? He's jealous of me. It's weird, isn't he a guy who's jealous of me?"
"Sorry didn't you know that Corporal Joy wasn't a guy but a girl?" sahut Leon's.
"Huh?! He looks a lot like a guy so I don't know if he turns out to be a girl. Oho! it is only fitting that he is jealous of me. Then, has your boss been dating Joy all this time?" Amanda turned to Leon with a curious face.
"Mr Barnes only ever tried dating once. That was when he was in college and only lasted for one year and after that, Mr. Barnes never dated again until now" Leon said.
"With Corporal Joy?" ask Amanda.
"Not" Leon said.
"We've arrived, Non. Please down!" sahut Leon's.
"But you haven't answered my question"
"I'm sorry, I was ordered by you not to say more to anyone"
"Basic sucks" Amanda said as she removed her seatbelt and stepped down from the car. Amanda walks into the course and Leon opens the car window to wait for Amanda to finish the course, for the next hour and a half.
Joy continued to frown during the mission. He was struck by a storm of jealousy that was very fierce to accept the fact that his Command had married. Joy has really loved Barnes since he became Barnes' subordinate two years ago because, Barnes has repeatedly saved his life.
Joy and her team who are doing reconnaissance in an old warehouse are required to always be vigilant and should not be careless in the slightest.
Jorge, who had secretly taken care of Joy, continued to observe her demeanor and finally at the right time, asked, "Why are you so upset after breakfast at the Commander's house and why are you pouting all the way up to this moment? What's pissed you off?"
"Ssttt! we have to be focused and not talk" Joy tried to avoid serious talk about her change of attitude that day because, she didn't want anyone to know that she was falling for the commander.
Leon let out a long sigh and felt.relieved to be separated from Amanda. He was really tortured when he was near Amanda because, Amanda could know everything that came to her mind. "What a horrible and very strange woman. But, the Boss loves him very much. So, who's stranger here, Boss Barnes or Non Amanda?" Leon spoke while rubbing his hair rough. "Even thanks to Non Amanda, I've learned that corporal Joy has liked Mr. Barnes secretly all this time but, I've kept this matter to me, do not let me convey to Mr. Barnes later even add to the burden of the Master"
Half an hour passed quickly and Amanda got back in the car. After seeing Amanda wear her seatbelt, Leon immediately re-applied his car to a mall that is quite large and only once, Amanda set foot into the Super Mall since she was taken care of by Omnya.
"Let's get down, Non!"
"Say first for what.we're here?"
"Mr Barnes ordered me to bring you here, yes, of course, to go shopping, yes, Non" Leon began to get annoyed with Amanda's stubbornness.
"I don't need to shop. I don't have much money to shop here"
"Mr Barnes saw only a few clothes and hardly worth wearing. Then your bags and shoes are also blinded. You also need stationery and a laptop to support your course"
"I don't want to. I don't want my debt to increase to your boss. The one that yesterday was five hundred million rupiahs that he used to redeem me has not been able to repay me" said Amanda.
"But, Non"
"home. We go home or I'll scream" Amanda glared at Leon and desperately forced Leon to drive back to Barnes' house.
"I want it again. Why is your boss so rich? what.he's corruption?"
Leon immediately braked the car and turned his head sharply to Amanda, "Let's talk you! Mr. Barnes is a very honorable and dignified person and you should not recklessly slander him!"
Amanda flinched in shock and instantly rewinded her face. Amanda said, "Sorry! I'm just nanya"
Leon let out a long sigh and said, "Master Barnes is the grandson of a famous conglomerate,.Mr. Moses Elruno and because he was the eldest grandson, he held the largest stake in the Elruno group. Not to mention, he is trusted by his Papa who is a successful businessman to hold and manage one of the subsidiaries of his Papa-owned company. That's why Mr. Barnes is so rich"
"Oh so yeah. I'm sorry, I said no" Amanda smiled at Leon and Leon snorted in annoyance and drove back to Barnes' house.
Arriving at home, Leon immediately reported that Amanda refused to be invited to shop at a mall. Barnes then orders Leon to buy Amanda clothes, bags, shoes, stationery and a laptop, Leon looked at Amanda's pretty smelly boots to see the size of those shoes as he muttered, "Master, why could you fall in love with such a woman, I feel sorry for you huh, sir, Mister"
