Scratches of Wound in Fiona's Heart
Not the New Bride

"Meet me dinner at my parents' mansion."

"Dining at your parents' house? Why are you taking me?" fiona asked with a surprised face. Fiona's point is why Steven didn't invite his girlfriend and instead asked her.

Steven again sat down near Fiona who was looking up his head looking confused at him. "I want to introduce you to my mother."

"In what order?" ask Fiona again who still does not understand Steven's intention to take her there.

"Nothing, just a regular dinner. So you'll also know where I live so you can find me more easily, if you can't reach me."

Whether Steven realized it or not, but Fiona had shown a disappointed look. "All right."

I unconsciously returned to hoping for him.

"Bi Asih no longer works here. I sent him to my parents' house. I'll look for a replacement later," Steven info.

"No need, Steve. I just stayed here for a while. I can do everything myself."

"alright. I'll go to the office first." Steven stood up and followed by Fiona. "Yeah." Yeah."

In the afternoon, Fiona, who had just finished her bath, heard the sound of a bell. He walked straight to the main door. It took me 10 minutes to get to the main door.

"Good afternoon, Miss." Fiona was stunned when she saw Doni who had just bowed for a moment and then stood up straight after greeting her.

"Good afternoon, Don," Fiona replied kindly.

"Sir Steven asked me to deliver Miss Fiona."

Fiona opened the door wide and went forward to approach Doni. "Where?" fion asked with a curious face.

"Go to Mall XXX. Mr. Steven's been waiting there."

"alright. I'm ready first."

"Well Miss," said Doni while nodding.

Fiona went back inside to her room. After getting a mirror and picking up her phone, Fiona walks out to Doni.

"I'm ready" Fiona said as she approached Doni.

"Let's Miss." Doni walks ahead of Fiona and opens the rear car door.

Fiona stopped her steps in front of Doni. "I'm just sitting in front."

Doni stared confusedly at Fiona because usually the other young Miss, preferring to sit in the back instead of sitting next to the driver. Although actually Doni is not a driver but a bodyguard, still their status is different.

"Don't Miss, Mr. Steven can fire me if you know Miss is sitting with me in front."

During this time, Steven was notoriously firm and did not like any small mistakes. Doni didn't want to until he lost his job for not following Steven's rules, moreover, Erick has warned himself to keep his distance from Fiona and must not interact much with Fiona for fear that his boss will be jealous.

"Steven won't be mad at you just for that little thing, Don."

That's just you think, Miss. I've made mistakes and I don't want to repeat them. I can see Mr. Steven is very possessive of you.

"Sorry Miss, please don't make things difficult for me" said Doni with a pleading gaze.

"alright. I'm sorry Don has troubled you." Fiona immediately felt bad for Doni.

"No problem, Miss. This is my job." Doni put his hand in the car. "Please Miss."

Fiona nodded. "Thank you." Fiona then gets in the car.

Lucky this afternoon is not jammed so the journey taken is less than an hour. Upon arrival at the mall, Fiona and Doni head straight for the 3rd floor where Steven waits.

"Steve," called Fiona when she saw Steven sitting there staring in focus at the screen.

Steven whose name was called immediately turned to the left. "Have you come?" Steven directed his gaze to his front seat. "Sit down."

Erick immediately stood up and looked for another seat with Doni, not far from Steven's seat.

Fiona nodded then sat down in front of Steven. They were in one of the famous restaurants in the mall. "Have you eaten?" steven asked as he sat facing Fiona.

"Yes, I've." That afternoon, Doni bought food for Fiona at Steven's behest.

"You don't want to order something?"

Fiona shakes. "No."

"All right." Steven looked at Erick who was sitting at the back table. "Rick, pay now" Steven ordered.

"Good sir." Erick walked straight to the cashier. When he finished, he walked up to Steven again.

"Here you go, sir."

Steven nodded then stood up while looking at Fiona. "Follow me."

"Yes." Yeah." Fiona walks side by side with Steven, followed by Erick and Doni behind them.

Steven invited Fiona to one of the outlets with a famous brand. They were immediately warmly welcomed when they had just entered the outlet.

"Find some of the best clothes and the latest for her" Steven said, setting his sights on Fiona.

The female employee nodded immediately. "Good, Sir. Please wait there, sir." The staff directs Fionda and Steven to one of the long sofas.

"Don't refuse." Steve could already guess what Fiona was going to say, so he immediately cut Fiona's words before she finished her words.

Fiona immediately silenced when she saw the face of Steven who did not want to be denied. Moments later the employee returned with three other employees with a lot of clothes in their hands and showed Fiona.

Fiona seemed confused as to which one she should choose. "Wrap everything." Steven looks impatient to see Fiona who has not yet decided which clothes he wants

"Steve, that's too much. I just need some clothes. Why buy so much?"

If calculated the number reaches 14 more clothes, including home clothes, semi-formal clothes, dress for traveling and 1 party dress.

"If you don't like it, throw it away or you don't you can give it to someone else."

Steven walked away from Fiona towards the cashier with an indifferent face. Steven felt dislike for Fiona's refusal.

"The total is Rp.1.145.996.654 Tuan," said the cashier employee. Steven immediately pulled out his card with a relaxed face, as if the total did not surprise him.

In contrast to Steven, Fiona actually displayed a dumbfounded face. Fiona's eyes immediately widened to hear the amount that reached 1 Billion more. Even though he knew it was one of the world's famous expensive brands but he didn't expect that all the totals would be that expensive.

It's not that Fiona never bought the brand, it's just that she bought in small quantities, only 1 or 2 clothes. He never bought in large quantities.

After he finished paying, Steven again invited him to enter a very famous outlet with a fantastic bag price. "What do we want?" Fiona tries to stop Steven when he wants to enter that outlet.

"Bought something for you." Without waiting for a reaction from Fiona, Steven immediately pulled her in.

Steven let go of Fiona's hand after being inside that outlet. "Choose what you like, otherwise I'll have Erick take it at random or ask his employees to get the most expensive."

"No, let me choose" said Fiona quickly. It was better for him to choose himself, that way he could take the cheapest one.

Steven nodded. "Buy shoes and bags for you to work with."

Fiona fell silent. "If you don't, then...."

"Yeah... Yesaa. I'll take it too." Fiona chooses to obey Steven rather than continue arguing with him.

Steven immediately looked for a place to sit while waiting for Fiona to finish choosing. Fiona deliberately looking for a price that is not too expensive because it feels bad there is Steven. In addition to work, Steven also told him to buy sandals and bags that will be used to his parents' house.

"Steve, it's done." Fiona approached Steven who was sitting while looking at his phone.

Hearing Fiona's voice, Steven immediately turned his gaze to Erick. "Rick, pay for Fiona's groceries." Steven gave Erick his cards.

"Good, Sir." Erick took the card and paid for it. Once they are done paying, they exit the outlet.

"Steve, I want to buy something" Fiona said in a soft voice and embarrassed face.

Steven stopped his steps and looked at Fiona. "What?"

Fiona looked doubtful as she looked down. "What do you want to buy?" Steven repeated the question.

Fiona looked back, looking at Erick and Doni who were standing not far from them while carrying her groceries. "Bend a little, I'll tell you." Fiona looks to be holding in shame.

Steven complies with Fiona's request by closing his ear to Fiona. "I want to buy an interior" whispered Fiona in a very slow voice.

Steven immediately turned to Fiona suddenly so that they made their faces at a very close distance. Fiona immediately distanced herself, after they had a moment's gaze.

"Let me be with you." Steven tilted the corner of his lips next to his smile when he saw Fiona's face blushing red.

Fiona immediately shook her head quickly. "No need for Steve. I'll go alone," Fiona refused, "you can wait for me at the restaurant. I'll catch up with you later" said Fiona.

How could she let Steven accompany her to buy underwear. He can't even afford to choose if you're Steven nearby. It was a very private thing for him.

"I don't like waiting. You don't have to be ashamed of me. I've even seen more of it." Steven walked ahead of Fiona without waiting for her approval first.

Fiona's face turned red. "Steve, why are you talking about time again?" fiona protests while pursuing Steven's steps.

Steven seemed to ignore Fiona's screams and continued walking until he arrived in front of one of the outlets that specialized in selling underwear. "Wait for Steve." Fiona held Steven's hand.

"You can't possibly seriously want to go inside, can you?" ask Fiona mamakensu.

"There's a ban for men to come in here?" asked Steven with a relaxed face.

"Nothing, it's just don't you feel ashamed to go inside? It's...."

"Hurry along. After this we have to go to my parents' mansion." Steven walked in regardless of Fiona who seemed to disagree that Steven had come inside.

Not far from them, Erick and Doni were dumbfounded at the behavior of their boss. Steven had never even entered a mall just to buy clothes. He used to tell Erick or his personal designer to make him clothes.

Fiona exhaled a long breath then with a resigned face she followed Steven's footsteps from behind. An employee greeted them kindly after following Fiona and Steven who were looking around while explaining their product to Fiona. Fiona was not even focused and did not know which one to choose because she felt uncomfortable having Steven nearby.

"It's the latest output and the material is very smooth. This model is suitable for newly married brides. It's a limited edition" the official said, showing a bright red lingerie with a very thin and open material.

Fiona's face immediately turned red. The officer misunderstood their relationship. "We're not newlyweds" Fiona explained quickly while enduring embarrassment.

"Right, we're not newlyweds."

"I'm sorry Sir, Miss I guess...."

"We're just planning to get married this year" Steven continued, holding Fiona's body together. Steven's words immediately made Fiona gawk. "Do you want to buy it baby for our wedding?"

Steven was seen smiling while looking at Fiona with an innocent face and without the slightest burden.

Seriate....
