Tone of Nara
Chapter 74 The Crocodile's Seduction (part 2)

POV Mahardika

As expected, the meeting of the delivery of this auction necklace will be used as a Pradipta crocodile event to Nara. Nara was still not too ready to beat Pradipta. That's why I have to take extra care of him. Nara is quite good at role-playing and word. Like when answering the Pradipta lure who wants a meeting this time to be their Lunch date.

“It’s ok for me, because I do not have a boyfriend or person who can forbid me to do kencam. But I think, it will be a problem for mas Pradipta later. We'd better keep saying it today as a business meeting. I don't want senior artist Juli scolding me and

think of me as an actor, then hit me and viral” that's the answer Nara at once as

allusions. Of course this can be done by anyone. Toh Pradipta and July announced their wedding plans in various communication media. Naturally, if a Nara knows, Pradipta already has a partner. Moreover, July is now one of the famous celebrity artists. Pradipta laughed

hearing Nara's insinuations. He looked at Nara with a worried look.

“Wow, I am flattered, because a beautiful and intelligent famous artist like Nara studied the life of a Pradipta. But don't worry, July is my business. I am really interested in Nara. You are an amazing beautiful woman. I also heard, Nara immediately amazed a lot of people, in a fairly short time. All praised Nara's beauty, kindness and intelligence. Nara is amazing. Men will sacrifice anything to have you, beautiful,” said Pradipta. His gaze did not release Nara in the slightest. Before Nara could answer, the waiter served the main meal in front of me. One of Nara's favorite main course menu while in Korea. Dol sot bi bim bap served in a luxury five-star hotel hot stone bowl.  Rice with a complete serving of vegetables, meat and eggs traditionally processed Korean style. In other words, this dish is a bibimbap served in a bowl of heated stone. Dolsot means "stone bowl". The heat from the stone bowl will ripen the raw eggs laid on the rice as a side dish. Very tempting, even more tempting than the seduction of Pradipta. As for Pradipta, the processed and served Sogogi Bokkeum Steak is different from the traditional version. From the data I collected that Pradipta really likes steak.  No wonder the choice is not far from this food.

This meeting which was considered a date by Pradipta was quite a relief for me. Everything went according to what we planned. Although Nara himself is still often tempted to face Pradipta, but he can still defeat the land crocodile. As of this moment, Pradipta was continuously pounding Nara with his dreadlocks, yet he did not seem to care much. Nara immediately ate the food in front of her. What I ahu, this is Nada Nara when eating, eating food with greed and not talking. The difference is, when it becomes Tone, when the husband needs something, he will immediately know and provide it. Yeah, right, I just felt relieved, because my instincts said there would still be something else that could harm Nara, even though I didn't know what.

I saw Nara calling the waiter and asking for black papper and tabasco. I'm quite surprised actually. The food does not require black pepper. And I also know, Nara is not a black spice lover. Then tabasco? Sambal this one, only suitable for steak right?  After Black pepper and tabasco came, Nara immediately took her and sprinkled her on a Pradipta food plate After it was finished, Nara took Pradipta's glass and asked the waiter to fill it with warm water. Nara's way of doing all that, like a wife serving her husband. That's when I realized that all Nara did was Nada's habit of serving Pradipta, her husband, Nara then took the Pradipta plate and chopped the steak, then returned without saying anything. Nara does it like a robot, without a word without thinking. I feel like at this moment, Nara moves involuntarily, bringing up the side of Nada.

“Adrian, Nara,” I said worried to the point of not knowing what to say. Adrian understood what I meant. I'm sure he was watching Nara. He began to standby, preparing to do something if something dangerous happened

because Nara's disguise was exposed. I also saw the shocked look on Pradipta's face for a moment. But he tried to cover up and was silent for a moment and thanked him with a smile. On his head appeared some suspicions which he later denied himself. I think Nara's actions reminded her of Nada.

“Nara, what are you doing? “ said Pradipta slowly but enough to make Nara aware of her transformation as Nada earlier. He is fully aware now, that what he did earlier endangered Nada’s Peoject.

“Oh sorry, I just want to serve you after all your sweet words. Maybe I got carried away,” said Nara shyly embarrassed. It seemed like he was trying too hard to cover up his absurd behavior earlier.

“Ehm, it's okay. But I want someone who always did this to me a few years ago,” said Pradipta with a little laugh. Right I said, the Pradipta of his mind went straight to Nada.

“Yes, he loves me, very. Unfortunately, he can't do it now. He is no longer there, already dead,” Pradipta said with a sad face. I saw Nara's face change hearing Pradipta's answer. Her face depicts the happy feeling of being remembered by her husband and being sad and angry. He's direct

daydreaming and his mind wandering.

“Adrian, Don't let Nara accidentally reveal her identity. Remind him,” my orders

“Each boss!” adrian said in a deep voice, which was only heard by me. Shortly afterwards Adrian dropped his spoon and cleared his throat. Towards Nara. To cover up the action, Adrian takes a glass and drinks a little.  Nara turned out to be quite sensitive. Only with Adrian's deheman aimed directly at Nara did he wake the girl from her daydream. He immediately smiled sweetly at Pradipta who looked at him, then continued eating, the dish in front of him silently. I know, Nara's still curious. From earlier his eyes did not switch from Pradipta who seemed to be daydreaming as well.

“So do you still remember him?” Well, right, Nara is still curious about Pradipta's attitude and thoughts on him. This girl was still trying to pry with her question.

“Yes, always, even though I never cared about him either,” said Pradipta flatly.

“Is he special to you?” ask Nara

“His family is a good and meritorious person to me. He's actually very nice. He's the best friend I've ever had. He was one of the people who always supported me,” he said. Pradipta looked a little nervous and tense.  He did not answer Nara's real question. To cover his meteganan, Pradipta played a bracelet of beautiful woven thread. Ah, yes, Nara also noticed that. I think Nara recognized the bracelet.

“Beautiful bracelet, is that also from her?” lure Nara while looking at the bracelet in Pradipta's hand.

“This belongs to someone who means a lot to me who died when I was in High School. He gave this while saying that someday I will become a great person who does not need to depend on anyone even for my life and livelihood,” said Pradipta. If you look at it like this, this crocodile is more like a human.

 “Who is he?” chase Nara. I'm a little confused as to what Nara wants. Why did this woman pursue questions of a personal nature in the past. But Nara is a smart woman. What he does has a purpose.

“A beautiful woman despite her age of more than 70 years. We call her Grandma Hermawan. Thanks to him I was given the opportunity to get a higher education and succeed like I am today. He who raised me to be his grandson and fought against his children who did not agree to take me home from the streets. He even gave my father a job as his family's driver and sent me to school,” Pradipta said. Oh, Nara remembers her family apparently. He wanted to herd Pradipta's memories on things that reeked of Nada's family's past emotions. Unfortunately, in addition to Pradipta, Nara was also influenced by the story of the Grandmother of the Hermawan family. In fact, I think Nara's memories of her Grandmother are much deeper than

Prefect.
