Only a Substitute Wife
28. Keenan doesn't remember


“Enghh!”


Keenan blinked his eyes slowly to adjust the light entering the retina of his eye. He narrowed his eyes to see where he was at the moment.


“This is Clara's room. Why would I be here? Auchs! My head hurts,” complains Keenan holds his throbbing head in pain.


Keenan was a little surprised to see him bare-chested. A small smile rose on her face while imagining Clara undressing the clothes she was wearing.


“Definitely her face is red. Just try I can see it. But what happened yesterday. As I recall, I went to the club for a little while to see Vincent. So, what happened yah?” muttered Keenan who thought hard about what happened.


The door of the room opened and Keenan immediately turned his gaze towards the door. He saw the figure of Clara with a tray.


Clara walked up to Keenan and handed the tray to him. “Minum!”


Keenan scrunched his forehead. “This what?” asked Keenan with a confused look.


“This is a medicine to relieve your hangover,” said Clara


Keenan received the tray. After Keenan received it, Clara left. However, his hand was immediately restrained by Keenan to leave.


“Where are you going?” ask Keenan


“I want to get out. Shouldn't you be getting ready for the office?” ask Clara back.


“Hmm, did you make breakfast for me?” ask Keenan back.


Clara linked the two originals for a moment. “You want breakfast at home?” ask Clara


Keenan nodded slowly.


“Yes, I'll make it. You get ready first,” replied Clara as she moved from there.


A wide smile immediately rose on Keenan's face hearing that answer.


“What happened last night?” keenan asked, which made Clara stop stepping.


Clara is eager to punch Keenan in the face right now. How could that man forget about last night?! Moreover, the man forgot the promise to have dinner with her?! You're a man who can't keep a promise!


Clara turned her body and smiled widely. However, it was not a smile of sincerity.


“I don't know anything. Aunt Nani who took you to the room and told me that you were drunk,” explained Clara while turning her body and leaving Keenan who looked at her in confusion.


“I think Clara took off my shirt. Why am I sad, Dad? Eh? But, like Clara's hiding something? Is it true that nothing happened that night?” mumbling Keenan


Keenan took the drug. Sure enough, the dizziness was somewhat lost after drinking it. After that, he went to his room to get ready.


The sound of a cell phone ringing on the bedside table. Making Keenan who had just finished wearing his tie immediately took the phone. He saw the name ‘Vincent’ there.


“Halo Vin! What's the matter with you calling me this early?” ask Keenan


[“Halo Cells! Where are you at this time?” ask Vincent back.]


“I'm home. Why why?” ask Keenan back.


[“Oh, I think you're at the hotel at the moment,” Vincent replied]


“Why should I be at the hotel?” asked Keenan with a confused look.


[“Eh?! You were back with Cherry last night out of the club,” Vincent replied]


Keenan was stunned because of that. “What?! I'm back with Cherry? How did that happen?” ask Keenan who is getting confused.


Keenan patted his head slowly. He just remembered that last night Cherry was at the club. After that, he did not remember anything that happened next.


“I don't know, Vin. But, obviously nothing happened to me and Cherry. I returned home safely,” explained Keenan


[“Ya if so. I closed first. See you later,” chimpanzee Vincent]


“Hm”


Keenan so thought about Clara's reaction earlier.


“Can Clara see me coming home with Cherry well?” mumbling Keenan


Keenan immediately grabbed his suit and walked out of his room. He walked down the stairs quickly to get to the kitchen.


“Young Master. Good morning!” hello Aunt Nani


“Good morning Bi! Where's clara?” ask Keenan who didn't see Clara at the dinner table.


“Oh, the Young Madam just went out. Said her friend Aida came to pick her up,” Aunt Nani replied


Keenan scrunched his forehead. It was as if Clara had deliberately avoided him.


“Auntie, I want to ask you something. But, Aunt should promise to answer honestly well,” pinta Keenan with a serious look.


Aunt Nani felt intimidated by that gaze. “Sure Young Master! You want to ask what?” ask Aunt Nani


“Last night, what Auntie brought me to the room?” ask Keenan


Aunt Nani seemed to be twitching her forehead. “Last night I was behind the house, Sir. I'm not home. Maybe it was the Young Madam who brought the Young Master into the house. Young Master is coming home at what time?” ask Aunt Nani


Keenan shook his head slowly. “I don't remember what time I came home because I was drunk at the time. But, why did Clara lie well?” mumbling Keenan


“Hm, last night Young Madam made quite a lot of night tombs. Said the Young Master was coming home for dinner,”, Bibi Nani said


Keenan widened his eyes at what he heard. He patted his head hard. How could he forget that? It must be the reason for Clara's strange attitude earlier, as well as deliberately avoiding her at this time.


“Young Master, let's have breakfast first. Young Madam has made this all for Young Master,” Aunt Nani chirped


Keenan looked towards the dining table where there was already breakfast for him. He felt guilty for Clara. Is it possible that Clara would have thought if she accidentally didn't remember her promise for dinner that night? Like he had to do something right now.


“Kesel! The overall! Overall!”


“Hey, don't shout my dear dong. You're making everyone look at you know,” complained Aida because from earlier on Clara kept shouting indistinctly.


“Let's just! I know about him. You're a man who can't keep a promise!” clara's protest drowned her face in the folds of her hands.


“You like it right?” ask Aida suddenly.


Clara raised her face and shook her head quickly.


“Which I might like, Aida! Such a man is not my type at all. She won't make it to the list of men I like,” Clara's rebut puffed her cheeks in annoyance.


Aida let out a rough breath. “If you don't like it, why do you behave like this? You shouldn't care to know her,” said Aida


“Ihh, Aida! Just try to be in my position. I don't like men who can't keep their promises. I don't like a liar. Moreover, I was tired of making dinner that night, but he did not appreciate it at all. If he doesn't make dinner, he can tell me, right? I don't need to cook much. What makes me more sprained again, the man did not remember at all what his mistake,” protest Clara at length.


Aida stroked Clara's hand slowly. “Dad, I know what you're going through. Ahah! I know how to repay your husband,” said Aida with a mysterious smile.


Clara scrunched her forehead. “Hm? What is it?” clara asked with a curious look.


“Sini, I whiskkin,” said Aida telling Clara to get closer to her.


Clara immediately approached Aida. Aida started whispering something to Clara. Clara's eyes widened to hear that.
