Chapter 68 - 068 ( Troublemaker Girl )
Harry replied to Reihan with a flat expression
"Do you think?" Harry asked, did not know.
Reihan immediately rolled his eyes without enthusiasm.
"Honestly! Ever since I met you, I've never seen you not strange! " Reihan said without lying. But before Harry gave him a glare like a knife. Reihan immediately added it.
"But, seeing you come so early like this already feels strange to me. So in your opinion, are you still normal like the usual you? "? Reihan asked, discussing Harry's latest and most concrete strange behavior.
Harry did not respond. He only listened to Reihan with a flat expression then weighed.
Really, since when did he start acting weird and unusual? Was it so obvious even though he never realized it?
Harry was still busy with his own thoughts when Reihan had already asked him another question.
"So did you already know that Steven has returned to Indonesia and invited you to his party?" Reihan asked, waiting for an answer.
Harry broke his reverie and looked at Reihan.
"You got an invitation from him too?" Harry asked.
"Honestly yes. But I don't think I'm going to the party, "Reihan reinforced.
"Why?" Harry asked again.
"You know, Steven has a very unique younger sister. Very unique! To the point that I was lazy to meet her, " Reihan said, unhappy and half annoyed.
Harry laughed.
"Since she liked you so much from a long time ago, you are afraid she would chase you like crazy in front of everyone at her brother's party?" Harry began to imagine the scene himself.
Reihan protested.
"You know how annoying that girl has been! Imagine! 8 years have passed. But she still kept calling me without stopping ever since she went along with her crazy brother to Amsterdam! "
"Then now that the troublemaker is back in his home country, he even brought his sister here without telling me anything so I can get ready and run away? If it weren't for them doing it on purpose. Then what again?!"
Reihan chirped irritably and angrily.
Harry took one sip of his drink, then raised his head.
"So you are really afraid of his sister?" Harry asked on purpose who immediately got a reproachful look at him.
"Yes! Very much even! That's why, don't force me to come with you, because I'd rather go on vacation to any country than have to be a free spectacle that night! " Reihan exclaimed excitedly and confidently. While thinking about new ideas that he will compile.
Harry continued to reply casually and wishfully.
"Even though it's possible that his sister grew up to be a very beautiful woman, since you haven't seen her for a long time?" Harry asked, using his imagination.
Reihan immediately shuddered.
"A woman who does not know whether she is a woman or not, will she change?"
Harry of course did not fully agree with Reihan's opinion.
Steylla Detriana, Steven's youngest sister, had taken care of her appearance since she was a child. Even when she was a teenager and went abroad for a very long time. That woman did seem like she would never change because she was too cool.
Even though the times have progressed. And a lot of facilities, facilities, infrastructure that support the beauty of a million human beings. This did not rule out the possibility that Steylla can now be changed over time and changed in the environment around her.
But Reihan never seemed to have the same mind when it comes to a different woman 5 years under them.
Steylla with all the uniqueness that Reihan always remembered always made him overwhelmed to accept her attitude that was too extraordinary and like a bolt of lightning on a hot day.
Yes. Steylla was said to have liked Reihan since the first time they met. Just kept on making Reihan's rattle each time they meet again at their next and next meeting.
Somehow on the story of their first meeting began. Steylla confidently stated that she really, really liked Reihan more than anything. And that was enough to make many people, especially her family, amazed by her attitude.
And because Steylla was the type of person who was too open and always frankly said whatever she thought. Reihan had accepted Steylla's love question until a few years ago during their second bizarre meeting until the next hundreds of times without pause and negotiation.
Didn't know what was actually in the mind of a woman who didn't even know what a true picture of beauty was. Reihan handled Steylla's attitude with great skepticism.
Steylla has long, unkempt, knotted hair. As well as her round cheeks like a bun with thick eyebrows, also her boyish demeanor. Success made not only Reihan always illfeel of her. But also almost all men who used their eyes and heads properly.
To hell with all the changes that might happen to a girl who didn't even know how to be suave and oftentimes disturbed him with all of her spoiled attitude which was weird.
A few years back, Reihan tried hard not to contact them for a long time. He even deliberately changed his phone number a few times until that woman got bored. Reihan didn't expect to meet that woman again whatever the reason.
So that if this time the woman really had returned to her home country and had a change that might be significant in her. Reihan would not be very grateful to it if the woman were more normal and acted and spoken.
"How many years have you lost contact with her?" Harry asked suddenly.
"4 years. It seems like it has been 4 years since she had not bothered me with her insistent calls every day from morning to night, "Reihan answered honestly while recalling the past moment that he almost forgot if the woman didn't come back.
Reihan calculated.
"After she and Steven went to Amsterdam. We still had contact for about a year. Even then, I keep changing cellphone numbers. And she's the one who kept getting my number back out of nowhere and somehow! "
"So, if you were in my position, would you screamed and hung your neck from the ceiling of the house?" Reihan added to with a lot of hyperbole and annoyance remembering an incident he shouldn't have remembered and brought it up again.
Harry continued listening casually. While occasionally taking out his cellphone and typing, then reading the message. Harry responded to Reihan's romantic interest with both interest and disinterest.
"So, if you don't succeed in getting me. Who are you going to ask? " Reihan asked who knew Harry's habit of never liking when he had to go to a party alone.
At least Harry would usually invite Reihan or Dirga to come along with him if he didn't also have a partner. And of course, it had happened dozens of times so the blur rumors about it were spreading.
Harry could have ordered one of his female secretaries to accompany him to the party. Because he had tons of secretaries who were willing to follow him wherever he wanted to go voluntarily.
But because Harry rarely went to events that he didn't really need. Harry always preferred to go to these official events with his secretary Dirga. Or at least Reihan, his friend who was the most carefree and easy to ask out to do boring things according to him.
Taking a quick glance at the screen of his cell phone, Harry answered Reihan's question with a glance.
"I'll go with her," Harry said curtly and indifferently.
Reihan narrowed his eyes.
"Who? Dirga? " Reihan asked, matching their answers.
Harry shook his head
"Cleo Alayster. My contract wife. As well as my legal wife in the public eye. So, there's no way I can go there without taking her? " Harry answered calmly and as if to mock fate.
Reihan laughed and smiled mockingly.
"So now you've recognized her as your wife?" Reihan teased with a little amusement.
Harry replied right away.
"Yes. Because Steven specifically asked me to bring her. He wants to see 'my wife' face in person! "
No wonder Harry was so calm when Reihan said he wasn't going to come with him to Steven's party! So since he already had a replacement, Harry forgot about his old partner?
Hah!!
Reihan rolled his eyes tiredly. Reihan began to ignore all his ridiculous thoughts. Because he didn't know how everything with that man started to make him deviate.
But what did Steven want? He specifically wanted to meet Cleo in person? Why?
It was three o'clock in the afternoon when Cleo and Christina had finished all their business together. And took the time to do some treatments at one of the spa places in the mall.
So that all their activities had ended. They finally decided to go home and return to their respective homes without any regrets that they might regret.
But when Cleo realized Christina kept looking at her cellphone several times impatiently and restlessly. Cleo asked the question that she had been wanting to ask.
