-Dear Husband is Calling.-
Gaius held his breath when Clarke was calling him. Gaius picked up the call and started the conversation first, "H'Hello, Husband'¦."
"Ah, Wife'¦" Clarke was relieved that Gaius picked up his call. He really thought that Gaius would just straight-up ignored him for the rest of the day, or maybe the next day as well.Â
It was difficult to appease the upset Wife of his.Â
Clarke checked his watch, it was 1 P.M, and Clarke was still busy with the paperwork. He decided to call because he knew they would wait for him to go back to the water park, but he doubted he would return home today, knowing the workload.Â
"Wife, I'm sorry'¦." Clarke said, trying to make his voice as soft as possible. That was the least he could do to appease Gaius, who would definitely be more upset after this news.
"It's the work, right?" Gaius snippet ruthlessly. He rolled his eyes, annoyed that Clarke still had to call him only to ruin his mood. "It's okay, I understand, and the kids understand as well."
Clarke could sense the disdain in Gaius' voice. He must be agitated right now. At first, Clarke thought he could just disappear for the whole day to finish the work and then return tomorrow morning.
But then he realized that Gaius and the kids must've been waiting for him. So at least, he should tell him about what happened.Â
"I'¦ I really don't know what is happening in the office. There are so many sudden errors and leak that we have to fix, I might not be even able to leave the office today," Clarke said.Â
'¦
Gaius knew that he shouldn't be upset because Clarke was trying his best to save the company he worked hard for. But he just couldn't keep himself calm after Clarke said that he might not be able to return home today, maybe until tomorrow morning or afternoon.Â
Because that meant Clarke would miss the whole weekend with the kids. He already thought that'¦ if Clarke couldn't come with the kids today, he could join an activity that Gaius planned tomorrow morning.Â
He already planned to make another small movie day for them as four, without Reed joining.Â
So the kids could watch a movie on the TV with their Dad.Â
But now'¦ even he couldn't attend that kind of simple activity. Gaius couldn't help but get so annoyed.Â
He took a deep breath and replied, "It's okay, Dear. I know that you're working hard in the office. Take care."
"I'Is that genuine? I feel like you're holding your anger'"
Beep.Â
Clarke was choking on air when he realized that Gaius had hung up the call.Â
He stared at the phone and then threw it to the ground, destroying it to pieces.Â
"ARRGGHH!"Â
Clarke slammed the mahogany table and split it into two with only a small strength that he had. He was frustrated because he also felt it was unfair for him.
He obviously worked hard for the family, and he was also very stressed out today while Gaius and the kids were having fun with Reed.Â
But Gaius didn't even appreciate his effort. All his hard work to provide for the family just went down the drain because he failed to attend one simple activity with his family.
What kind of bullshit he had to put through just to keep the family together.Â
"Why can't he understand that I'm also suffering here! I'm working hard for us to have a good life! ARRGHH!" Clarke yelled out frustratedly.Â
He glared at his staff, who were also as tired as him, holding many documents as they were also as frustrated as he was.Â
They were terrified when their CEO suddenly yelled out frustratedly. They knew they were also the ones to blame because they couldn't seduce the company's secret project. Now they were calling a lot of staff to restart all over again.Â
"How the hell have that much power to steal the data from my company? This is the first time!" Clarke complained.Â
Whoever dared to ruin this current project had successfully ruined his weekend with his family, and he would find this person no matter what.Â
**
"Is it Clarke?" Reed asked with a concerned expression. "You shouldn't think much about it. He must be busy."
[Oh, come on, I know that you're the one who sabotaged his project. There is no way someone like Clarke can be so careless. I know that you use your money and connection to ruin his company!]
[Pupa: Yet, you were rubbing his cock a few hours ago.]
[That'¦ that's part of the plan, of course, hehe.]
Gaius sighed, "Let's just go and saw that underwater aquarium."
"Sure, it's Hermes who has been very excited to see Manta Ray from up close," Reed smiled thin.Â
Gaius nodded, but he said nothing, and Reed was delighted with this. Because he knew that Gaius was in a terrible mood right now. The fact that Clarke would be busy until tomorrow, or even more, would ruin all the plans he had with the kids.Â
Reed wanted to chuckle, thinking all the funny scenes that would happen between Gaius and Clarke.Â
'Yes, it's really nice to see. It's a fun experience for me because I got to destroy you two'¦.'
Artemis was still sleeping on Gaius' arm while he followed Reed from behind. Reed was carrying Hermes on his shoulder. Hermes looked way too excited, maybe because this was his first time ever getting a piggyback ride on the shoulder.Â
Clarke was always too busy with his kids anyway. At least his brother could fill his spot to make Hermes happy.Â
They went down to a bunker that led to the underwater aquarium. There was a long tunnel with dim lights before they finally arrived, and Hermes was awed by his surroundings.Â
Not going to lie though, even Gaius was awed by the amazing underwater aquarium. it was truly an amazing view.Â
"Welcome to my private underwater aquarium," Reed greeted with a smile.Â
