Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

"You don't really need to take me if you're really didn't want too late. Do you realize what time it is now?" Cleo showed the time on her cellphone. Ensuring that Harry was aware of the times. Harry just didn't seem bothered.

"Okay! Because of it seems that you are conscious and lazy to go to the office. Drop me off in front there because we've arrived," Cleo said, asking Harry's driver to stop the car. Mr. Gray immediately parked his car right in front of the course.

Ethan also just arrived when Cleo got out of the car. He greeted Cleo first.

"What a coincidence we met outside. Are you being escorted by someone?" Ethan asked, who was curious about the owner of the car.

Because he seemed to see a man sitting in the back seat.

Gazed as if investigating. Harry got out of his car to greet Ethan.

"Who is he?" Harry asked Cleo.

"My tutor. His name is Ethan. And Chef Ethan, introduce him ... Harry," Cleo said, introducing the two. The two men squinted at each other. Caught a competitor's radar. Ethan felt that this man named Harry was not just anyone. And seemed to have a special relationship with Cleo.

The two of them did not shake hands, because Harry suddenly got a call from Dirga who asked him where he was and asked him to immediately go to the office. Harry without further ado, immediately glanced at Cleo and Ethan.

Got into the car and drove the car away from the course.

Harry got a million questions from Dirga and Alfin who asked about his whereabouts for two hours without his attendance who was always on time as usual.

Both of them seemed quite panicked because the Deluxe Project was having a little trouble. Some workers demonstrated because they were instigated by the opposing party. Harry told Dirga to call his men to go directly to the field.

Cleo, who had returned to focus on her studies, continued to focus on the bread dough she made. Not realizing that Ethan kept stealing glances at her several times. Wanted to ask who the man that took her but was reluctant because he thought it was rude and unethical.

Ethan finally was unsuccessful in asking Cleo anything about the stranger. Assumed that Harry was might be Cleo's lover. So that, he started wanting to bury his desire to approach Cleo.

But Cleo suddenly approached him.

"Chef, is this dough good enough?" Cleo asked, asking about the dough which she thought would be less fluffy. Ethan checked it and said it was okay. Asked Cleo to keep the ripeness at the right level.

Ethan realized again that his feelings had dissolved for Cleo. Ethan decided to put aside his thoughts about giving up or not. Because he will invite Cleo out to eat later when the course time had ended.

Offered her a ride to drop her and chat with Cleo for a while. Ethan finally found out that Cleo was indeed an attractive woman. Apart from her calm demeanor and mature thinking. Cleo also never overreacted to the opposite sex.

Kept the conversation safe for the two of them. Ethan hadn't had a chance to ask her about Harry yet. Felt too absorbed in the time that they spent together. Ethan wanted to take Cleo home. But Cleo refused it softly.

Said that she had other business around the place where they chatted. Cleo accidentally heard someone shout.

"I told you that we have to break up! Why are you still forcing me?!" shouted a woman who looked frustrated. Cleo and Ethan went straight to the woman.

Seen arguing with a guy who they thought might be her boyfriend from the way they talked and argued with each other. Cleo looked worried when she saw the man almost throwing his punch at the woman.

After taking just one step, Ethan was ahead of her and held the gruff man's hand. Scolded him and gave a warning. Ethan looked genuinely angry at the unethical man.

"What did you do by hitting a woman? Are you a man? " Ethan asked while holding back his anger at the grip he made as hard as possible.

The rude man groaned in pain. He replied to Ethan's words.

"This is none of your business! So don't get involved! Go and ignore us," the man exclaimed, who looked more like a drunken and a high man than a nice man.

The man was wearing a slightly riotous outfit with a black t-shirt and velvet jacket and torn jeans. Cleo then took a closer look at the woman who was with him. A woman who looked innocent and quite cute but looked a little fierce with anger.

Cleo recognized that the woman was the waiters she had met at Steven's birthday party, who at that time was almost harassed.

Staring at the two alternately, Cleo looked at the woman in disbelief.

Her boyfriend was a bad boy?

Cleo looked at the cowardly woman with a shocked expression. How could an innocent woman like that have a boyfriend who was clearly not a good guy from the outside!?

Was the woman serious about her choice? Or was she being fooled into dating the guy?

Cleo turned her head in a sign that she couldn't understand. Came forward to vote. Cleo prevented the rude man from looking at his woman.

"If you want to make a scene in a public place. I'll report you to the police. So leave this woman or I'll call the authorities right away. Choose one or I will choose first," said Cleo firmly. She was used to dealing with people can't compromise on but in reality, was always afraid of the law and the police.

This kind of threat was often more powerful than polite talk or hitting.

"I told you this has nothing to do with you! Why are you even cornering me? She's my girlfriend! And you can't prevent me from talking to her!" shouted the man, still not wanting to go.
