The Lady Rich System
Chapter 51: Lurking

Unbeknownst to Devan and Kessy, Arsenio follows them into the hotel room. 

Arsenio smirked and shook her head looking at Kessy's unchanged behavior. She still likes to sleep with men.

"I'm glad I didn't marry you. If until I marry you, I will not know who the father of the child you bear later," said Lirih Arsenio accompanied by a grin.

Eventually Arsenio returned to his office without giving Devan the file. He doesn't want to interfere with other people's affairs, especially Kessy's. She was afraid that Kessy would think she still cared about him.

Arsenio threw the files she was carrying on her desk. His tie was put on and he unbuttoned his collar so as not to feel too tight. 

I don't know why he's not too comfortable at the moment. Like there was a feeling of anxiety and a sense of tightness in his chest.

Roll up his hand shirt to his arm. He sat in his chair and intended to do his work to be finished quickly and could quickly go home to do his plan.

However, suddenly Laura's shadow comes out of the hotel elevator along with Ryan's back in attendance. Even the shadow of Kessy and Devan in and out of the hotel elevator was with him.

Arsenio stopped her work. He covered his face with both palms, then rubbed his face violently using both palms as if to remove the shadows.

"Did Laura and Ryan do the same thing Kessy and Devan did?" said Arsenio who still imagined his wife along with his boss.

Arsenio sighed. He could not concentrate and focus on his work. What he did was only time consuming and did not get any results at all.

He threw the ballpoint pen in his hand on his desk. And closed it with a rough map in front of him.

He was busy with his thoughts. Thoughts about his wife and her debts.

"Why did my life become like this? Why can't we live quietly like that?" Arsenio monologued while pulling her hair in frustration.

He stood up from his seat and said,

"can't. I can't just sit here without doing something. I have to see it in order to continue my work after confirming it."

Arsenio came out of her room. With curiosity he immediately drove his car to his wife's office.

Now he is in front of a very magnificent and towering building with the RAZ logo that can be clearly read from any direction.

He took his cell phone out of his pants pocket. With agility his finger was looking for his wife's contact number. 

"Hello, honey, I'm in front of your office. Meet me for a minute" Arsenio told Laura, who was talking to her by phone.

Without saying a word, Laura immediately ended the phone call and moved from her seat. He walked up to Ryan and looked at him.

"Sorry sir, I'll let you out for a moment. There's my husband in front of the office wanting to talk to me right now" Laura said hesitantly.

Ryan took his eyes off the files he was working on. He looked at Laura as he said,

"Please. But don't be long because I don't want your personal affairs to affect your work."

Ryan's words made Laura feel sorry for him. In his heart he said,

Permissible, but his words are, like not sincerely allow it.

Laura's steps rushed to the front of her office. She looked upset when she saw her husband's car parked not far from his office.

Laura immediately got into her husband's car and sat down at the steering wheel.

"What's wrong? Why come at such a busy hour?" asked Laura with an angry expression 

"So I have business near here. So all of you I stopped by to see you. I miss you so much, dear" said Arsenio, looking at his wife with a longing gaze.

"I'm busy. We meet at home every day. I'm back inside now. It's not good for Mr. Ryan to leave the room for too long" Laura said as she moved to open the door.

"Not good? Wh why? Is he watching you?" asked Arsenio who was astonished by his wife's words.

Laura paused her intention to open the car door. She turned to her husband and said,

"Because I'm in the same room with him."

Then he opened the car door again. But her movement was again stopped by her husband.

"Why can you have a room with him? You should have your own room and not a room with your boss" said Arsenio as if to object to his wife's office.

Laura sighed at her hearing the question her husband had asked her. He grinned and said,

"Because I'm his personal assistant. So it's only natural that my place of work is in his room, because the one who takes care of all his needs is me."

After saying that, Laura immediately got out of the car and hurriedly went back into Ryan's room. He did not want to get insinuations or warnings from his boss.

She desperately needed the job to pay off her mother's debts as well as her husband's debts. Moreover, she must complete her mission to help her husband to cooperate with the RAZ company, where she currently works.

This time Laura did not care about her husband's suspicions on his relationship with Ryan. He is more concerned with his work and his mission. She's been tired of her heartache caused by Kessy lately.

Very carefully, Laura went into Ryan's office, which was also her office. He didn't want to disturb Ryan's concentration while he was at work.

Unfortunately Laura's move caught Ryan's attention. She glanced at Laura who was walking around sneaking towards her work desk. And she held back her smile seeing Laura's very funny behavior in her opinion. In his heart he said,

Why did he stumble around like that? Is he afraid of me? 

Laura sat back in her chair without saying anything to Ryan who pretended to stay focused on her work and did not see Laura in the room.

Ryan looked at the clock in his right hand. Then he closed the map in front of him and said,

"It's lunch hour. We'd better have lunch first.

Laura turned to Ryan. It seemed that he was shocked at the moment. 

"Sorry sir, I forgot not to ask you for the lunch you wanted. And sorry, I haven't prepared it yet" Laura said with a fearful expression.

Arsenio smiled faintly looking in fear in Laura's eyes. Then he got up from his seat and said,

"We're having lunch outside now."

Laura quickly moved from her seat and grabbed her bag to follow Ryan who had walked to the door of her room.

Elsewhere, in his car, Arsenio grew frustrated with his wife's work.

"Why should he have a room with her? Why did he become a personal assistant who took care of all his needs? Then, did it have anything to do with the hotel at the time?"

However, his eyes were now fixed on the door of the building. Laura and Ryan walked out of the office together.

His heart rumbled when he saw his wife get into Ryan's luxury car and sit in the back with him.

"Where are they going?" arsenio said as she stared fixedly at them as if she did not want to lose any moment.
