Chapter 33



“Looks like Zeline will soon be brought to the room,” Arthur said so casually as he took another sip of his alcoholic beverage.

Kalea was a little surprised, she looked worriedly at her friend. What Arthur said seemed to be true, because the man started pulling Zeline aside to a quieter place. Kalea had intended to get up from her seat, but she gasped when Dariel stood up first and walked over to Zeline. Arthur just smirked at him.

“This kind of thing is normal for them,” Arthur said as he wrapped his arm around Kalea’s waist.

Kalea’s surprise didn’t stop there, the three people suddenly became the center of attention because Daniel suddenly came and pulled Zeline away from the stranger. Of course, the man didn’t accept it and punched Dariel in the face mercilessly. However, Dariel didn’t return the blow. He pulled Zeline back to the table, allowing the stranger to be restrained by the guard who was there to make a fuss. Zeline also seemed ungrateful, she continued to struggle to get away from Dariel and even cursed at him.

“Let me go, you bastard! I was just about to have fun!” Zeline cursed until she bit Dariel’s arm. While the man just grimaced in pain without intending to let Zeline go.

“Arthur, are they siblings?” Kalea asked.

Arthur laughed loudly, which made Kalea a little surprised. She thought the question was not strange, but why was the man laughing.

“Absolutely not. But Dariel enjoys taking care of the bad girl,” Arthur replied.

.....

Dariel finally let go of Zeline and made the girl sit between Arthur and him. Zeline’s face looks sour and red from drunkenness.

“I want to have fun, but why is it forbidden, huh?!” Zeline protested, she was still not satisfied and wanted to continue venting her anger. Dariel didn’t answer, he kept looking at Zeline until he realized that Zeline’s cheeks were swollen.

Dariel held Zeline’s right cheek making the girl scream slightly in pain. While Kalea was impressed that Dariel could notice it even though Zeline had covered the slap mark with thick makeup.

“What happened to you?” asked Dariel worriedly.

“No-none of your business!” Zeline answered while brushing Dariel’s hand roughly from her cheek. She began to lose her balance and finally unconsciously dropped her body on Arthur. Dariel immediately pulled her to lean on the sofa.

“Did you get into a fight with one of your daddies again, huh?” Arthur asked curiously. However, Zeline didn’t answer. Her head had started to nod, soon the girl was completely unconscious because she was too drunk.

“W-what?” Kalea asked, because the two handsome men were now looking at her as if asking for an explanation.

“You must know something, right? Did she tell you?” Arthur asked, pointing at the unconscious Zeline.

Kalea swallowed hard, she didn’t know if it was appropriate to tell the two men about Zeline’s problems. Moreover, this is the first time Zeline has told her something, of course Kalea is very happy and appreciates it. However, if Zeline finds out that she leaked the incident without Zeline’s permission, the blonde girl will definitely be mad.

Kalea snapped out of her thoughts when Arthur flicked his finger against Kalea’s forehead. “You must be thinking too much,” Arthur guessed very well.

“Don’t worry, we won’t tell Zeline again. Consider this a secret for the three of us,” said Dariel.

‘But this should be a secret between me and Zeline,’ Kalea thought still doubtfully.

“Lea,” Arthur called as he took Kalea’s hand and stroked it gently. “This is for Zeline’s good too.”

Kalea was silent for a moment, she took a deep breath and nodded. Willing to talk about what happened to Zeline.

After knowing the matter, Dariel massaged his dizzy forehead. Arthur just watched his best friend, he couldn’t talk too much because Kalea was still there. Dariel’s secret that he likes Zeline still remains a secret for the two of them.

“I’m going home first, I’ll take Zeline,” said Dariel as he got ready to carry the blonde girl. “Thanks for telling me, Kalea,” he continued with a gentle smile.

“Y-yes, I hope Zeline is okay,” Kalea replied worriedly.

After that, Dariel took Zeline out of there.

“We should go home too,” Arthur said as he got up from his seat. Kalea looked at the table full of bottles of alcohol and some food, all of them gone. Seeing the bunch of bottles made Kalea’s heart constrict. She remembered Freya, her mom. She hadn’t known Freya for several days. “Lea?” Arthur called while holding the girl’s shoulder.

“Y-yes, let’s go home,” Kalea replied with a stiff smile. “But-”

“Hmm?”

“Are you okay driving? Haven’t you been drinking a lot?” Kalea asked a little warily.

Arthur stroked Kalea’s brunette hair so the girl wouldn’t worry. “I’m still fully conscious, don’t worry. Even if I was drunk like that time I still made it to my destination, right?”

“Death no one knows.”

“... please don’t say something scary like that.”

Kalea furrowed her brows in surprise. “But it’s true?”

“Come on, let’s go home.” Arthur pulled Kalea’s arm to stop arguing over what he thought was trivial, and immediately left the club.

While in the car, no one made a sound. They are busy with their own thoughts. Moreover, Kalea was really tired from being in such a crowded place. Her energy was very drained and she needed to rest quickly. After they arrived, they still didn’t say much. Kalea was a little relieved because tonight she didn’t have to serve the man’s lust. However, she was a little confused because Arthur was not like usual.

“Are you going to stay the night?” asked Kalea casually. It was two o’clock in the evening, Arthur had even put on his blankets, ready to sleep.

“Of course. Come here,” Arthur said as he patted the bed for Kalea to sleep by his side. The man was still busy playing with his cellphone. Kalea began to lie down, her back felt very sore. Kalea’s eyes were already very heavy and she wanted to go to sleep.

“I’m sleepy, can I sleep first?” Kalea asked.

“Yeah. Good night, Baby~” Arthur replied without looking at Kalea and still engrossed in typing messages to anyone.

***

The next morning, it was a little weird when Arthur was still asleep with his cell phone ringing. Even though an hour ago she had woken the man up then showered and got ready to go to campus. Kalea thought Arthur had woken up but was still sleeping comfortably on the soft bed. Kalea was even a little weird because while they were sleeping, Arthur didn’t hug her at all. Honestly, as long as that man was here, Arthur always hugged her and made herself a living bolster.

What exactly happened to Arthur?

Kalea sighed, her focus shifted to Arthur’s cell phone which didn’t stop ringing. Though impolite, she reached for the cell phone to see who had been calling Arthur. She also saw the message on the cellphone screen, it seemed to be from Arthur’s secretary.

The girl patted Arthur’s cheek to wake him up. “Arthur, wake up. You’re late for work,” Kalea called. Arthur wasn’t usually hard to wake up, was it because of the alcohol? Kalea still didn’t want to give up, she patted Arthur’s cheek harder and occasionally pinched him. Before long, Arthur woke up making Kalea breathe a sigh of relief.

“Your phone keeps ringing, it seems important. You must be late,” said Kalea as she pulled back the blanket that was still covering the man’s body. Arthur only wore pajama pants leaving the top bare chested. Reluctantly, Arthur got up from bed and reached for his cell phone. Juan had been calling him since earlier, but he was still relaxed even though it was so late.

“I made some hangover soup, please take a moment to eat it first. Are you still dizzy?” asked Kalea as she sat down beside Arthur.

“Hm? I’m fine, Lea,” Arthur replied with a small chuckle.

Kalea was silent, her face looked doubtful. Her curiosity grew even more because Arthur’s attitude had changed.

“I’ll take a shower first,” Arthur said as he got up from his seat and started walking toward the bathroom. Kalea followed the man’s footsteps, wanting to ask him a question.

“Arthur!” Kalea called, making Arthur’s footsteps stop. The man turned to face his sugar baby.

Kalea bit her lower lip, she dared to look at Arthur. “Do you mad at me?”

“Huh? Why should I-”

“Because I suddenly came to the club and disturbed you having fun with other women!” Kalea continued until she closed her eyes.

Arthur blinked, he didn’t understand why Kalea would think like that. Arthur couldn’t hold back his laughter, he laughed out loud making Kalea even more confused.

“Why are you laughing?” Kalea asked, confused.

Arthur held his stomach which was starting to hurt from laughing too much. He wiped the corners of his teary eyes. “You’re really funny, Lea.”

“What? Why-” Kalea’s eyes rounded when Arthur suddenly hugged her. Her face was directly in contact with the man’s chest.

“I’m not mad at you, much less because of that,” Arthur said in a low voice.

“Liar, I-”

Arthur tightened his grip on her, making it harder for her to breathe. The girl hit Arthur on the back to release or loosen his grip because she might suffocate to death.

Arthur let go of his embrace, he chuckled softly at Kalea, who took a deep breath. “Are you worried about me?” he asked.

Kalea turned her face the other way, her face made as flat as possible. Arthur smiled meaningfully, the timid nature of Kalea’s cat always made Arthur curious. “The point is it’s not your fault. Are you going to campus? Let me take you.”

“No need! You’re very late, better hurry to the office.”

“Don’t worry, I’m the boss.”

Kalea snorted in disgust, she most disliked people who underestimated something or took advantage of their position. “Your attitude doesn’t reflect that of a good boss,” Kalea said sharply, which pierced Arthur’s heart.

“... I am kidding.”

“But Arthur.”

“Hm?”

“I ... I know our relationship is just a mutual need, but if there is something that makes you feel you can’t face it alone, you can tell me,” Kalea said, making Arthur slightly flabbergasted. “I may not be of much help, but at least I can be a good listener to you,” Kalea continued, a little embarrassed to say that.

The corners of the man’s lips lifted, and he smiled sweetly. “Thank you, Lea. I’m so touched that you’re so worried about me. You’ve helped me a lot, after all.”

“Me? I help what?” Kalea asked curiously.

“You gave me the best service, it made me happy,” Arthur replied casually without feeling guilty for messing up the emotional moment.

Kalea regretted worrying about the perverted man.

“Ah, is that so? It’s up to you,” said Kalea, already too lazy to respond to Arthur’s lewdness. She immediately left right away from the penthouse, leaving the man who was still smiling sweetly like a fool.

After Kalea left, Arthur’s smile faded slightly and turned sad.
