Only a Substitute Wife
19. It's Because of You

Seeing that mysterious smile made Clara so misbehaved.

“Eng-No! I don't want to know. I'm just wondering why you're wearing that unwashed shirt. Never mind, you can eat that breakfast. I want to make it new for me,” explained Clara who immediately left Keenan.

“That's because of you!“ Sontak Clara stopped her steps when Keenan suddenly spoke. He quickly turned his body around and looked towards Keenan who had risen from his seat and walked towards Clara who was still idly glued in place.

Keenan stood right in front of Clara who was staring at him.

“That's because of you. Did you hear?“ ask Keenan who said back.

“K-You ... What do you mean say that?!“ ask Clara back who seems nervous.

Keenan smiled sweetly. “Why? Is it less clear what I said? I did this because of you. Because my wife has taken the trouble to sew it back. Of course I have to appreciate your hard work no,” Keenan said while holding Clara's chin.

Clara brushed off that hand. “You don't joke. I don't trust you. Mending you change your shirt. People will look weird when they know you're wearing that shirt yesterday,” said Clara who turned her around to leave Keenan.

However, suddenly his hand was quickly pulled by Keenan until the moment his face with Keenan's face was very close. Making Clara stunned at the proximity. Moreover, the sweet smile on Keenan's face really made him pangling.

Clara lowered her face. “H-Hey, release me,” great-grandson Clara in a nervous tone.

Keenan approached his face at Clara. “Why? Are you ashamed at this time?“ ask Keenan in a slow tone.

“Si-Who is ashamed? I'm just uncomfortable like this,” refutes Clara who is currently trying to neutralize her crazy heartbeat.

“Oh yes? If you don't forget that on our first night, we're closer than this, right? You shouldn't matter if I'm this close to you. After all we have not done it for a long time,” timpal Keenan with a big smile.

Clara widened her eyes at Keenan's words. He quickly pushed Keenan's body away. Keenan could see Clara's face blushing all because of the words from her.

“Ja-Do not mess around! I don't like it!“ clara's protests are backtracking her steps.

Keenan is getting closer to Clara. It was Clara who continued to rewind her steps when Keenan was approaching.

“Why don't you like it, hm? Didn't you like her that night?“ asked Keenan with a seductive smile.

Clara lowered her face and continued to rewind her steps. “K-You forced me. That's not my wish,” great-grandson Clara

Keenan was eager to laugh out loud this time as he saw Clara's expression that was like a frightened cat. Or rather like a rabbit who was cowering in fear because it wanted to be eaten by a wolf.

Until Clara could not stop when a pillar behind her. Clara kept her head down. Until he saw the pantofel shoes stop right in front of him. Slowly a hand lifted his face until Keenan's smiling face appeared on him.

“K-Sister Ke-Keenan..“.

Clara's words stopped as Keenan kissed her forehead gently. It made Clara widen her eyes over what the man before her did.

Keenan turned his face away and looked deeply into Clara's face. “It’s gift for you,” whispered Keenan with his heavy voice.

Clara was so fixated at this moment because of Keenan's completely sudden treatment. The guy really seems to have a double personality.

Because he was too fixated on Keenan's treatment, he did not realize that the man had left before him. Until Aunt Nani's voice surprised her.

“Clara?“ call Aunt Nani while touching Clara's shoulder.

Clara is awakened from her condition. He looked towards Aunt Nani who was still staring at him.

“Aunt Nani? Emm, where's Brother Keenan?“ clara asked, giving her eyes.

Clara was a little surprised by that. He had just faced that man. Suddenly, the man was no longer in front of him.

“Ha? Already gone? I didn't see him go,” Clara replied with a confused look.

Auntie Nani seemed to know what had happened. “That's it, you don't think about it anymore. Come on, Auntie made you a new breakfast. Hasn't your breakfast been eaten by your husband?“ take Aunt Nani

Clara recalls Keenan suddenly taking breakfast from her. I don't know why it was enough to make him feel happy. Especially when remembering that kiss on his forehead. He touched his forehead after being frowned upon by Keenan.

It feels very warm. Warm to spread to my heart ~ Inner Clara

While in other places, it looks Keenan who just arrived at the Gibson Group area. When he entered the company, everyone immediately saluted him and saluted him. But, Keenan could see the astonished gazes in the eyes of those employees. Keenan certainly knew what that gaze meant.

“Hey, look! Didn't you notice? Young Master Gibson wore the same shirt from yesterday”

“Ha? Iyeakah? I didn't notice it”

“Daddy, it was indeed the shirt that yesterday was worn”

“Did Young Master Gibson not come home wearing the same shirt?“

“Hey, even if you don't go home, surely Young Master Gibson can buy a new shirt, right? Young Master Gibson is not a stingy person tau”

“Keep why did Young Master Gibson wear the same shirt well?“

Everyone was speculating about why their president was wearing the same shirt. Small indeed, but all of its employees did pay attention to every detail of the Gibson Group's owners.

Keenan walked into his room and sat down in his chair. Just as he was about to start his work, suddenly the voice of his assistant was heard. He grabbed a small remote and opened the door of the room.

When the door opened, the figure of Darel came in with his hasty path. He stood before Keenan and looked in surprise at the man.

Keenan scrunched his forehead looking at Darel's gaze. “Why are you looking at me like that?“ asked Keenan who was wearing his reading glasses and started to open the document in front of him.

“I think the gossip in the company is just a lie gossip. The rumors are true. Why why. You're wearing the same shirt you wore yesterday?“ darel asked with a look of wonder.

“Just want,” replied Keenan

Darel shook his head strongly. “No! You're Keenan Clovis Gibson, a man who cares deeply about cleanliness. Maybe you'll wear the same shirt. While you alone every day will change three to four times the shirt. It's really not you Keenan. I'm not dealing with you,” said Darel who refuted Keenan's remarks.

Keenan chuckled softly. “You think I'm not Keenan, huh? I'm Keenan tau. This shirt is special, so I want to wear it again. This part doesn't smell like tau. Kiss this. Fragrant tau,” timpal Keenan with a big smile.

Seeing that big smile made Darel even more sure that his best friend was really strange at this time. He pointed his palm and checked Keenan's body temperature on his forehead.

“Not hot as well. Why are you being such a gini freak?“ asked Darel who was really confused because of Keenan who suddenly changed.

Keenan smiled widely. “I'm not weird. Don't interrupt my work. Mending now you tell me what my schedule is. I have to get it done quickly,” said Keenan

“Tumben you want to go home fast. Why?“ ask Darel back.

“Because I want to play with my cat,” Keenan replied with a mysterious smile.

Darel put on a astonished face. “Cat? Since when do you have a cat?“ ask Darel. Because as he remembered, Keenan was not too fond of the name of animals. Especially cats. How could Keenan suddenly like cats? He felt strange to his best friend because he suddenly changed.

“Since long” Keenan stumbled on a smile remembering his sweet cat. While Darel is still curious about his cat Keenan.
