The Dark Secret of the Actress
Chapter 81 RGSA - Knowing the Whole Story


Catalina placed her bag on the chair and went to a table full of utensils and items used for tea brewing. Looking at all that, he did not feel the slightest bit dizzy. Instead, he was very excited.


Don't assume he can't and also don't underestimate his abilities, Nick spent enough money to pay a tutor just to teach him how to brew good and true tea. From green tea to black tea, from non-concentive to concentrated, he can do it all. It's just that, he uses traditional ordinances.


The first thing Catalina does is boil water. "Do you like black tea or green tea?" tanyakanya. His calm voice broke the silence.


The way of brewing black tea and green tah is different. If black tea uses a water temperature of about one hundred degrees Celsius, then green tea is only about seventy or eighty degrees Celsius. If it is too hot, green tea will be damaged.


"Green tea is not bad" replied Raphael.


"Then do you like the thick or not?" ask again. He didn't ask to make her look professional. But he asked that the tea he made was what Raphael wanted.


"Don't be too thick."


"All right." Because Raphael wanted a green tea that was not too concentrated, Catalina would use water at a temperature of about seventy-five degrees Celsius.


While waiting for the hot water in the teapot, Catalina poured the tea leaves into the pot. He uses tea leaves about one-third of the pot. And when the water is hot, he slowly pours the water in a pitcher into the pot. It doesn't pour a lot of water. He only used a little to soak the tea.


After that, he immediately threw out the first tea.


After that he just poured hot water to brew tea in a pot. It does so slowly with a circular motion of the hands to ensure that the heat is evenly distributed and water hits each part of the tea.


He waited for two and a half minutes before pouring it into another pot and leaving the tea leaves in the previous pot, making the tea water very clear. Then he put it on a tray along with two small cups of tea.


Catalina brews tea in the traditional way because of the manner in which the tutor teaches. He didn't even use a sieve or tea bag. Although the method he used was too troublesome, for the sake of getting a good impression from Sehan's parents, he did not mind to do it.


Catalina carried her tray and placed it on the table in front of Raphael. Then he poured the tea in a pot into a cup. He deliberately does not use additional sweeteners because additional sweeteners can damage the nutrients contained in green tea. 


After she finished, Catalina stood beside the table with her head bowed.


"Sit down!" Raphael's orders.


Catalina sat down obediently and hid her satisfied face well. This is the thing he's waiting for. Drink tea while doing pleasant pleasant pleasant pleasant pleasantries. Because usually in the pleasantries of parents, they will bring events in the past to compare the present and the past.


He didn't flatten all the old men like that, but such ones must be old men. So, he would wait patiently until Raphael recalled his meeting with Tatiana. Because then, he'll know the origin of the damn engagement.


Raphael took a sip of his tea and was shocked for a while. Before Catalina even realized it, her shocked expression was already non-existent. The look on his face was calm and natural as if the one who was shocked was not him.


"How are you doing?" raphael asked starting the conversation. He put down his teacup and watched Catalina with a complicated look.


"I'm very good. What about you?" Catalina turned the question around.


"As you can see. I'm getting older and I'm getting older." Raphael smiled slightly.


If it was with Tatiana, that man would have been a great fit. No wonder why he chose Tatiana and did not hesitate to claim her as his future son-in-law. Turns out they were eleven twelve.


"You're really good at licking," Raphael sneered.


"Who's licking? I'm telling the truth." No. gabe. He was licking. Licking while waiting for Raphael to tell him something he wanted to know.


Raphael laughing. "To be honest when I see you after all this time, I feel like you've changed a lot." Raphael averted his gaze, looking out the window. "When we met for the first time and two of our meetings after, you weren't like this. You can't even brew tea. Now, in our fourth meeting, you've changed a lot. No wonder Sehan was interested in you." He said with much satisfaction hidden in his eyes.


He was old, his two sons had nothing serious about marriage. At his age, he only wanted a grandchild. His two sons were still unwilling to give it.


If it's his youngest son, he's still quite young. But not with his eldest son. He was twenty-eight years old. It was time he chose a companion and made his own family. But in reality, she is single and always single. Makes her a worried parent.


He hesitated and thought there was something wrong with his eldest son. That's why he accepted the marriage offer when Atkinson's family came and urged him to get Sehan and Tatiana engaged.


Besides Tatiana had already saved his life while in the mountains, he felt that the girl was not too bad even though he honestly did not like her too much. So in order to give face to the Atkinson family, he accepted the engagement. On condition that all decisions remain in the hands of Sehan.


In addition to returning the favor, he only hopes Sehan has a sweet love life.


But Tatiana and Sehan's relationship turns out to be much worse than she imagined. Only one meeting was arranged for them, and Sehan immediately rejected Tatiana. Makes him more anxious. After that he let and did not really care whether the engagement was continued or not.


But when Sehan hears Sehan bringing a girl home to the mansion, and then takes her to a charity party, he realizes that the girl is Tatiana and their relationship is not that bad.


Catalina. So Tatiana can't brew tea? No. gabe. That is, is Tatiana's steamed tea so bad?


Damnit.


Was he too excited and made the difference so clear?


Catalina doesn't know how to correct this mistake. He didn't know which part to fix it from. But he can conclude that Tatiana, now aka himself, is much more favored than the real Tatiana.


"Forget about that." Raphael shook his hand. "Now the wind blows in a better direction. Regardless of whether your engagement happens at the insistence of your family or not, no matter if I do it in return because you saved my life or not, if Sehan likes you then that's enough."


No need to ask questions, no need to ask a single question, Catalina was already able to read the entire story. From start to finish, everything is as clear as day. If he still doesn't know, then he's not human.


Words such as 'first meeting to fourth meeting', 'cook your parents' to 'reply", more or less he has got the keyword to string word for word into a story.


It starts with the first meeting where Tatiana saves Raphael's life. Yoana, who finds out Tatiana saved a member of the Geffrey family, may have urged her to match Tatiana and Sehan on the pretext of sacrificing her life to save her. In other words, Joanna forced Raphael to return the favor.


The engagement agreement may take place at the second time of the meeting. While the third time meeting, maybe when Tatiana failed to brew tea. The fourth meeting is currently and the one to meet him is he, Catalina.
