A few days later......
Leona finally returns to her office after spending about 10 days in her secret house located in the suburbs along with Ethan. They both did a lot of fun in the house. Tell each other and share things to make them both more familiar and so close. In addition, of course Leona also spent the night making love with Ethan. There is no more awkwardness and Ethan also begins to enjoy it. It's the same thing that Leona had done with Robert, her old bodyguard. Have fun meeting each other's bioIogical needs. It's just different, Leona never invited Robert to the fine line or his secret house. And Leona prefers Ethan to Robert. Ethan is more clever to please him in Robert's bandung which seems to only need satisfaction, while Ethan prefers to play and is good at teasing Leona. Ethan's little games make Leona so fond of him.
And after a visit to the orphanage, Leona becomes increasingly fond of Ethan. The man was so extraordinary, besides his good looks also because he had a sincere heart, so considerate to all in the orphanage, Ethan loved all of him. Leona also knows how Ethan's real person was, including Ethan's childhood. Leona digs up information about Ethan's childhood from the nannies at the parlour. Many things Leona did not expect from Ethan. Since childhood, Ethan has a great concern for his friends. Ethan Sellau places himself as their protector, cheeriest and most considerate, though at first Ethan is quiet and unaccustomed to his new abode.
Leona also gets the facts about Ethan when he was a child and just occupied the orphanage. Where due to the accident that befell his parents, Ethan turned out to have a brain crow that caused him to lose his memory. Ethan doesn't remember how his childhood was even his parents. When she began to grow and understand, then the caregivers decided to tell her about what happened to her and her parents. Maybe even until now Ethan's memory has not returned. But it does not make his cheerfulness disappear, because Ethan can put himself well and not forget the services of everyone who has helped him so far.
All those facts, make Leona more amazed by the person of Ethan. He very rarely found a man like Ethan. Moreover, Ethan has a great commitment to something that is very desirable. Ethan's way of life also leaves Leona speechless. Ethan even prioritizes the Orphanage as the main thing rather than his own person. Ethan very routinely sends money to the orphanage, only after that he will divide it for his daily needs to his future savings. For others, maybe it does not need to be done, because they prefer to enjoy what they are currently, while for the future in thinking later.
Leona exited the elevator and walked straight to her room. Kaia immediately stood up to welcome her best friend, not expecting Leona today has returned to the office because before Leona intends to enter the office again tomorrow, not today. "Morning...!! I thought you'd be back tomorrow.. " Say Kaia.
"Morning.... I decided to go back today, to my room, I need to talk to you.. "
Kaia nodded and quickly left her desk to enter Leona's room. Leona put down her bag and sat on her work chair. He smiled at the pile of files waiting to be signed by her.
"You have to read all that and sign it.." Kaia.
"I knew... " Switch Leona.
"You said you'd be back tonight and tomorrow at the office, why are you here now??? And why didn't you tell me??? I could've picked you up back at the apartment.."
"I'm not going to the apartment, from Fine line account directly here.."
"Owhh.. So you're just with Ethan???"
Leona smiled. "I told him to come home earlier, so he went to his apartment and I came here alone.. I asked her to rest and come back later.. " Leona took one file and she opened it. But then he turned his gaze to Kaia. "And yes, book a money room or villa at the best in Hawaii... I promised you I'd give you a week off after I got back... You can entertain your lover, but finish what you have to finish first, if today you feel not enough then it will be finished tomorrow and you can go the day after tomorrow, but if today you finish eating tomorrow you can leave.. "
Kaia's eyes sparkled. "You serious???? I thought I was kidding... "
"Did I ever break my promise??? Of course I'll meet her, make love all day in the villa, and I'll take care of her.. "
"But what about your job and your needs???" Ask Kaia.
"Laura will help me, I'm sure she can take care of everything like you.. You can be comfortably allergic.. " Answer Leona.
"Ahhh Thank you dear Leona... You are my best friend... Okay, I'll try to check and finish, you can read all those files and call me if you have anything to ask.. I went to my desk again.. " Kaia left Leona's office.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh... Welcome to Leona... Happy busy today... " Murmured Leona and she focused on checking all the files in front of her. And hoping for today alone, her Mama didn't come and mess up.
Meanwhile, Ethan chooses to lie on his bed which he has not been in for days. Ethan really misses this place. Small but very comfortable. She had already spent her days with Leona yesterday, and before noon came back to work, she would sleep. Last night she spent her night with Leona till late.
Ethan is also getting closer to Leona. The woman has many stories about her life and her family that are rarely known by others. Although Leona was very upset with her Mama's behavior, but it turned out that Leona was so respectful towards her Papa. Keep trying to do your best for Papa. He stayed in the company is for Papa's sake, for Papa's business to keep running and well managed, because his Papa built the business with hard work, Papa, and Leona understands how Papa struggles first, so she is currently trying to keep all that, but Leona certainly hopes her Papa can get back healthy and help her in that company. Because Leona is also certainly overwhelmed to do and take care of all her own. Sometimes Leona also comes to her Papa and discuss or just ask her Papa's opinion.
Behind all the coldness, and as she pleases, Leona is still a great woman and very affectionate with her family. All she hated was the nature and attitude of her Mama who liked to interfere, and liked to impose her will. Though Leona also loved her very much, put her respect as the mother who gave birth to her.
All of that makes Ethan feel amazed by Leona. An independent person and he always hides his sadness in front of others and then acts ordinary. All are hidden behind his haughty, annoying attitude, and also his cold attitude towards others. In fact, he is very attentive even to small things.
"Gemma... I have to tell her when I get home.. She must be so happy, and I miss her so much... " Murm Ethan. He scoops his phone on the table and sends a message to Gemma. Tell the woman that she has come home. For several days of work so that he could not meet Gemma. When Gemma tries to contact her via video call, Ethan rejects her and asks Gemma to speak by phone or send a chat. Because Ethan respects Leona's privacy and doesn't want anyone else to know where they are at the time.
Ethan misses Gemma very much. And regarding his conversation with Leona about Gemma, as much as possible Ethan is normal, because he does not want his personal life and relationship with Gemma later can cause big problems. Ethan is actually afraid that if Leona opens her mouth to Gemma about what they're doing, because if Gemma finds out, Ethan must be in big trouble. He really likes Gemma and hopes that in the near future he can express his feelings. She was already convinced that Gemma was truly the right woman for her. And he will be more intensely approaching Gemma so that Gemma is also sure to receive her later.
After sending a short message, Ethan pulls the blanket and goes to bed for a while. Ethan knows that Gemma is at work and will not immediately reply to her message.
****
His afternoon......
Leona's office door opens. Seeing that Kaia and Laura instantly woke up. And bow her body. "Kai, I'm going home to see Papa, so I have to go home first, all the files have been read and I signed.. " Said Leona. "Have they come???" Ask Kaia.
"Oh it's Na, they're already in the basement parking lot, I'll contact them to get ready in front.. "
"okay.. Then I'm leaving now.. "
"You don't want me to be with you???"
Leona nodded. "No need, you just finish your job, you're leaving tomorrow right??? I can walk out on my own.. Call them, don't make me wait.. "
"Well if so... Pardon you.. "
Leona left her room and walked to the elevator to visit her Papa. Leona needs to discuss with her Papa, so she has to meet him even though later she will also definitely meet her Mama and listen to the babble from the woman. Leona hasn't seen her Papa in weeks either. She misses him and would want to see him and see him.
Leona got out of the elevator and walked in her company lobby to the door. In front of the car the bodyguard is also there. Seeing Leona, the staff stopped and the one sitting up saluted Leona by bowing their bodies.
Leona exits and the car door is opened by Ethan. The man had been back at work since noon. And he stopped by the apartment first to pick up a car and headed to Leona's office because she asked that this morning. Ethan obeyed him and he did.
Leona came in and sat in the back seat. Ethan immediately ran and entered to drive the car. The car starts and starts leaving Leona's office. And Leona tells Ethan an address that is the address of his parents, because Leona knows that Ethan must not know his house because he has never been there.
Ethan focuses on driving his car, while Leona focuses on his phone. Leona checks Ethan's chat history. Because he had previously hijacked the man's cell phone, so secretly all this time he kept on monitoring Ethan from his conversations. Leona knows that Ethan will meet Gemma tonight. They promised to go out to dinner together. The two of them must have missed each other as long as Ethan was gone. It was evident from his second miss phrase in a short message. Leona also knows that some things about her chat with Ethan about Gemma, the man lied to her. As each Ethan sends a message to Gemma, it contains the words love, care and longing. One thing is certain, that Ethan loves Gemma very much, but the two seem to hold each other back. Leona also believes that maybe Ethan and Gemma will become lovers in the near future.
And for some reason every time I read all that, Leona's heart was in pain. Ethan is also a romantic guy. Gemma is the same. Somehow Leona felt very sick with all the messages, but she had nothing to do with Ethan, and what they did was just to have fun. During this time he also did not feel like that when he was with Robert. They just have fun and need each other.
