The Love of Mr and Young Miss
Mysterious Man

Week pass.

Carissa was busy decorating her boutiques. Devian getting a very strategic place makes Carissa more excited and impatient to open her boutique.

On the afternoon, Carissa sat on the sofa and leaned her back to unwind. Carissa's eyes still pay attention to the workers who are busy painting the walls and some people who arrange their boutique equipment.

Drt

Carissa's mobile phone vibrated showing the name "My husband" on her screen.

"Hallo, honey.." said Devian.

"Hemm, yes dear.." said Carissa.

Despite having been married for over a month to Devian, the affectionate call still feels awkward for Carissa.

"How was your day? Are tired?" ask Devian.

"Lumayan. But it's still better than I have to lie down at home." Carissa replied making Devian chuckle softly.

"How about we have lunch together?" invite Devian to offer.

"Can. Are you not busy?" ask Carissa to make sure.

"It just so happens to be a break. I have to make time for my wife anyway, right?" devian answered not forgetting to tease Carissa.

"Stop, Dev. Quickly pick me up." said Carissa a little annoyed.

"All right, 10 minutes I'm here. Um, no! 5 Minutes I'll be in front of you." said Devian, making Carissa ticklish.

"Of that, it's up to you. Be careful" Carissa said.

"Ready, my wife." said Devian eagerly and then turn off his call.

"Why do I feel like Devian's getting weird, huh?" ask Carissa in your heart.

Carissa rushes to clean up in the bathroom specifically for herself that Devian prepared in Carissa's private room.

"Dev has worked hard. Looks like I should give him a surprise." Inner Carissa.

Carissa was amazed by the room Devian prepared, really designed to make himself comfortable.

"Do you like it?"

Carissa immediately twisted her body when she heard a voice that was very familiar to her.

"Dev, have you come? Do you have the ability to move yourself in an instant?" carissa asked in surprise when she saw Devian coming.

"Haha...." Devian laughed at his wife's question.

"Where is it, my wife. Your shop is not far from the company. I deliberately chose this place, so that I could visit you at any time." replied Devian walking over to his wife.

Devian hugged Carissa then kissed her forehead at a glance.

"Hemm. deserve it." said Carissa.

"Awhile, I changed my clothes first" Carissa said but was detained by Devian.

"No need, you're beautiful in this." said Devian immediately made Carissa's face blush.

"Hisssha.. You can always make me blush" Carissa said, revealing her sweet smile.

"But I'm sweating, Dev. It makes me uncomfortable." said Carissa making Devian sigh.

"I'll make sure it's prettier than this" Carissa said, sparkling Devian's eyes.

"Hem, okay. Dandan is my wife's beauty." said Devian then sat on the long sofa available in the room.

It did not take long, Carissa came out using a knee-length wrap dress tosca flower motif. Carissa untangled her hair, just clamping her bangs to make it look neater. Don't forget to polish the thin makeup on his face. Carissa's appearance is simple but elegant.

"Wow, my wife is beautiful." praise Devian for making Carissa smile.

"And I told you, it would be prettier" Carissa said, making Devian nod his head.

"Come, I'm hungry. Hunt your break." take Carissa with Devian's hand.

"Hmmm.. Looks like my wife forgot her husband's position." said Devian to make Carissa stop her steps.

"God! I totally forgot you're the CEO!" carissa said patting her softly.

"But that doesn't mean you're just as willing to work your hours, Dev. You have to be a leader who can be a good role model for your subordinates." said Carissa reminded to make Devian smile and look fixed.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something weird on my face?" ask Carissa gelagapan.

Devian simply shook his head and still maintained his smile.

Carissa looked at Devian confusedly.

Devian approached and then kissed Carissa's cheek gently making Carissa round her eyes.

"My wife now likes to nag ya?" seductive Devian makes Carissa shut her mouth.

"Attractive." said Devian as he pinched slowly on Carissa's cheek.

"Deevvv.." grumbled Carissa.

"So no lunch?" carissa asked in an annoyed tone.

"Volcano.. My wife, don't be mad.. Let's have lunch." Devian excitedly took Carissa's hand to walk to the car parked in front of the boutique.

"That was Devian?" tanya Carissa muttered to see her husband's behavior.

Carissa was still trying to digest and blink her eyes.

Without Carissa noticing, she was already sitting in the car.

"Darling? Is there something that's bothering you?" tanya Devian looked at the dreamy Carissa.

"Huh? Nothing." replied Carissa then smiled then threw away her face and stared into the streets.

Devian shrugged his shoulders and turned on the car engine and then stepped on the gas towards a nearby restaurant.

"Since when did Devian have this side anyway?" Carissa wondered inwardly and occasionally glanced at Devian who was focused on her steering wheel.

Not far away drive, Devian's car stopped in the parking lot of a restaurant typical cuisine of the archipelago.

"We have arrived, my wife." said Devian with a smile then rushed down from the car and opened the car door for Carissa.

"Dev, you're too much" said Carissa Lirih then greeted Devian's hand with a blush.

Devian's treatment makes them both the center of attention for the visitors and makes Carissa ashamed.

"There's no shame. You should be proud to have a romantic husband." whispered Devian made Carissa's body crumble.

"Romantic?"

"really. You're so romantic, Dev." said Carissa then stepped up with certainty and a big smile.

The two lovebirds immediately sat down in an empty place and the waiter rushed over to them.

Devian ordered the lunch menu because Carissa was confused so she only agreed with her husband's choice.

"Alex, it's me." call Aninda from outside Alex's office.

"Yes, honey.. Come in." said Alex.

"Darling, look." Aninda said with a face and showed Alex a picture on her phone.

Alex takes her eyes off the laptop and sees a photo of a white dress from Aninda's phone.

"Wow.. Dev's wife is talented." praise Alex.

Alex stared at the photo unblinkingly, his mind instantly imagining Aninda wearing the dress on their happy day.

"You must have been so beautiful that day" Alex said, making Aninda smile.

"I'm not feeling well with Rissa. She must have spent a lot of time and material to make this dress" Aninda said and instantly her smile faded into a muddle.

"Hey.. Don't so. Your own best friend wants to give you a gift, right? No need to hesitate. How about we replace giving them a gift as a token of gratitude?" alex asked, making Aninda think for a moment.

"What gifts are suitable for them?" asked Aninda considering Carissa and Devian had been struggling with luxury.

"Hmmm.. Take it easy, I've prepared something that will impress them." replied Alex with a mischievous smile.

"Hey.. Oye.. You're not preparing something ridiculous, are you?" aninda asked as she caught a strange smile on Alex's face.

"Of course not, my dear. You don't have to worry." said Alex.

"Hemm. But if anything happens, I don't interfere" Aninda said, giving Alex a chuckle.

"All right." said Alex to make Aninda shake her head.

"It's weird" Aninda said in her heart.

"Darling, why has your appetite been declining lately?" ask Devian to worry.

"Hemm? I don't know. Maybe I'm exhausted." replied Carissa as she was.

"But you have to keep eating. Take care of your health." Devian's message made Carissa frown.

"All right." said Carissa with a sweet smile.

The couple continued their lunch. After the plate is empty, Carissa goes to the toilet to urinate.

When Carissa came out of the toilet and returned with Devian, she was confronted by a man. The man was wearing a leather jacket, jeans, a hat and a black suit.

"sorry. Excuse me, I want to pass by." Carissa said to the man who covered her path.

"I want to talk to you" said the mysterious man making Carissa look up but unable to recognize the man.

"Do we know each other?" carissa asked as she frowned trying to remember who the man before her was at the moment.

"Not only know each other. Even more." replied the man making Carissa feel a strange hissing flowing down her body.

Carissa just looked at the man blankly. Carissa tried to remember who the man was but to no avail.

"Did I have a special relationship with a man before I married Devian?" ask Carissa in your heart.

Seeing the puzzled expression on Carissa's face, the man smirked.

"It doesn't matter if you forget our memories. I will faithfully wait for you to remember." said the man again.

"Who are you?" carissa asked, hoping that when she heard the man's name she could remember something.

"Hmmm.. No need to rush. We will meet again and get to know each other again." said the man then smiled and left Carissa who looked dazed.

Carissa stared at the passing of the man who walked away from her.

"Why is his posture so familiar? Who the hell is he? Is it possible that he's a person in my past?" carissa muttered full of questions.

"I've never had amnesia, have I?" ask Carissa again to herself.

"Once" said Carissa, rubbing her hair rough, making her a little messy.

When Carissa stepped foot accidentally her heels touched something.

"What's this?" carissa asked and bent down to pick up a handkerchief that had fallen off.

Light blue handkerchief. There's an AR embroidery on the corner of the handkerchief.

"Could this belong to the man?" carissa muttered and then put the handkerchief in her small bag.
