81 Husband And Wife

Aluna examined Kalea’s appearance today from head to toe with a cynical look, while Kalea remained flat-faced. Kalea kept thinking that what was in front of her at this time had nothing to do with her. They are only classmates.

“Could you step aside? I wanna go to class,” Kalea asked, seemingly unconcerned with the cynical gaze until the girl with the burgundy hair was a little surprised at Kalea’s brave attitude, unlike the one Aluna had ever known.

Aluna made room for Kalea to enter, but before Kalea could step foot, Aluna’s friends came because they were planning to go to the canteen. Violet and the others gaped at Kalea’s drastically changed appearance.

“Ka-kalea? Wow ... you finally showed yourself, huh,” Violet said with a mocking smile, the other friends did the same.

“This time you look like a real prostitute.”

“Ew, it’s only natural to attract a lot of men, it turned out like this.”

“Hey, everything attached to her is branded and very expensive.”

“Naturally, what does the man who rents it get?”

“Vir-gi-ni-ty!”

.....

“Hahahaha!”

Kalea didn’t reply to their words at all, even now she had become the center of attention of the children in the class because of the noise of Aluna’s friends. While Aluna only gave a thin mocking smile.Kalea started walking through the group of girls with her mouth full of trash, but her shoulders were grabbed and pulled back to face them. This time Kalea couldn’t keep a straight face anymore, her gaze became sharp as they continued to be annoying.

“How arrogant, you already feel you are on top, huh? Don’t be arrogant! You’e beautiful because of the money the man who got your virginity!” Violet rebuked with bulging eyes like she wanted to get out.

Kalea’s fist tightened, she closed her eyes briefly and took a deep breath. “Why do you guys keep bugging me? Are you jealous? Why don’t you try to follow in my footsteps?” Kalea asked, making them surprised and getting more emotional.

“Huh? You’re kidding, aren’t you? We don’t want to do something as bad as that and we are not as cheap as you!”

“You don’t want to or because you can’t get rich men interested in you?” Kalea asked with a small and haughty smile. Just like Zeline, even the blonde girl who had been watching the commotion all this time was flabbergasted in disbelief because this time Kalea was fighting these crazy people.

“You!” Violet shouted more and more furious, she wanted to grab Kalea’s brunette hair, but Kalea immediately grabbed her hand and gripped it so hard that Violet screamed in pain.

“Don’t touch me, you don’t know how many treatments I’ve had, do you?” Kalea spoke in a cold and stressed tone. Kalea immediately let go of Violet’s hand roughly and then walked towards her chair.

Aluna gaped in disbelief at Kalea’s arrogant attitude and made the other children speechless because she was so shocked. Aluna glanced at Violet, whose face was red with embarrassment and annoyance mixed into one. “Let’s go to the cafeteria,” Aluna said so they could calm the emotions caused by the girl with cat-shaped eyes.

On the other hand, Zeline approached Kalea, who was just acting cool and bold.

“Where did you get that bravado from?” Zeline asked.

Kalea turned her head, she smiled faintly at the blonde girl and resumed her activities, namely taking out books for this morning’s class material. “I’m just doing what you usually do,” Kalea replied.

“Me?”

“You’re always brave and don’t care what other people say. Isn’t that a good example to follow?”

“Is that so? So you followed me, huh? Well, no problem. I’m also sick of seeing you just looking down trying to hold back your tears. Looks weak, you know?”

“... sorry.”

Zeline snorted softly, at least she doesn’t need to intervene against her own will anymore. That’s how it should be, little by little Kalea will get used to it. It’s already a risk to plunge into the dark world as Zeline has been doing for two years. Even according to Zeline, Kalea’s fate was better than hers.

“By the way, Zeline,” Kalea called, breaking Zeline’s thoughts, the blonde girl looked at Kalea strangely and slightly disgusted because this sugar baby Arthur suddenly blushed with a blush on both cheeks.

“What? Why are you suddenly so disgusting?” Zeline asked bluntly, without filtering her sentences.

“I-I’ve made lunch for Arthur,” Kalea replied.

“Oh? That’s good. He must like it, right?”

Kalea nodded, playing with the mechanical pencil she was holding as if to channel the nervousness she was feeling into the inanimate object. “For some reason, it looks like a husband and wife.”

“What? Husband and wife?” Zeline asked to repeat Kalea’s words because it was not very clear and her voice was very low.

“N-no! I was just kidding!” Kalea refuted it quickly, which made Zeline suspicious.

Zeline retracted her words earlier. The fate of Kalea who gets a sugar daddy like Arthur, may not always be good. Zeline had a hunch that something would happen if they continued to be together.

On the other hand ....

“Today I’m going to have lunch in my office,” Arthur told Juan after he finished consulting with a client.

“Huh? How could that be. This morning I told you that this afternoon you would have lunch with our corporate partner, Coxo.corp,” Juan reminded.

Arthur immediately stopped in his tracks, staring at Juan in horror.

“What? Why are you looking at me like you’re seeing a ghost?” Juan asked in surprise.

“Can’t you just have lunch with them?” Arthur asked irrationally, making Juan angry once again because his boss’s attitude was always arbitrary.

“Don’t act so reckless again! You haven’t seen them in a long time, don’t you know their app is growing fast? You should congratulate them!”

“Hey, if they continue to develop, they are no longer our partners but enemies.”

“... you mean you want to stop cooperating with them?”

“Maybe not, I just want to have lunch alone,” Arthur replied nonchalantly, and walked back ahead of Juan. The secretary could only sigh heavily and followed his boss from behind.

“And why do you suddenly want to eat alone? Or maybe you hired a woman to come here?” Juan asked after they were in Arthur’s room, he looked around because who knows what he said was true if Arthur brought a woman like Arthur usually does even though lately it seems that the man has rarely done it.

“Speak politely, Juan. I’m still your boss,” Arthur said very firmly and looked at his secretary a little sharp that made Juan shiver and immediately bow deeply.

“Sorry for my harsh words,” Juan said with a little cold sweat. “Then how about lunch? You have to meet them in thirty minutes,” Juan continued still politely to Arthur.

Arthur took a deep breath, then nodded lazily. “Where is the place?”

In the end, Arthur stuck to the schedule that had been arranged for him. By bringing lunch that has been made by his sugar baby. After arriving at the restaurant in a five-star hotel, Arthur just waited to let Juan take care of everything until they were now at the table that had been booked.

“They haven’t arrived yet?” Arthur asked.

“Still on their way, maybe in ten minutes they will arrive,” Juan answered, reading a message from a company partner on his iPad.

“How can they make us wait like this,” Arthur snorted slightly annoyed, his annoyance had not subsided because he was forced to have lunch with other people when he wanted to enjoy lunch made by Kalea.

“Usually you don’t protest,” Juan said, a little surprised because Arthur was a little weird today. No, the boss is always weird and magical.

Soon two people came to their table with a slightly brisk walk, their breath panting. Arthur and Juan got up from their seats to greet the two people.

“Sorry to keep Mr. Jefferson and Mr. Awnsley waiting,” one of the two said apologetically.

“It’s okay, Mr. Theodore and Mrs. Stewart. We just arrived too,” Juan replied, with a faint smile. They shook hands, Juan and Arthur invited them to sit down.

Shortly after, the waiter came to take their order, and what surprised them was Arthur who only ordered wine.

“Why don’t you order some food?” Juan whispered softly and only Arthur could hear.

“Because I brought lunch,” Arthur replied casually, suddenly making Juan gape and still digesting the words that came out of his boss’s mouth.

“Mr. Jefferson, are you sure you only ordered wine? The food here is delicious, I guarantee that,” Theodore said with an awkward smile, he was afraid the restaurant they had ordered would not suit Arthur’s taste.

“Oh, I don’t mind at all. “Please bring some wine here,” Arthur said to the waiter who remained at their table.

“Mr. Jefferson, maybe you could try the Beef Bourguignon? Or the Chicken Cassoulet?” Stewart offered, but Arthur still politely refused. Finally, after a long debate they left Arthur with an order of wine.

Food began to arrive one by one, interrupting their conversation about continuing cooperation between companies.

“Are you really sure it’s only wine Mr. Jefferson? Theodore asked, still reassuring Arthur. Of course, of course he also felt bad about the amount of food ordered while his work partner was really very simple.

Arthur chuckled and nodded. “Actually, I brought lunch,” the man replied as he took something out of his briefcase. Juan was also curious because his boss had only said provisions and had not explained more specifically what he meant.

The three of them blinked as Arthur put down the black, three-tiered lunchbox. Arthur casually arranged the three boxes lined up. The man smiled proudly, looking at the lunch menu made by Kalea, all of which were his favorite foods.

“Is ... is this made by your wife, sir?” Stewart asked who immediately received a soft pat on the thigh by Theodore.

“He’s not married yet,” Theodore whispered in her ear.

“S-sorry for my impudence, sir!” Stewart said, she immediately withdrew her words, very guilty and afraid that Arthur would be angry with her. However, Arthur just laughed softly as if not offended by such a question.

“Let’s toast, to the cooperation that is still very well established,” Arthur said as he raised his glass of wine. The other three people did the same thing until the sound of the glass clinking. Arthur would not at all answer their curiosity about the lunch box he brought. Because he didn’t know how to explain about who had made lunch for him.

Sugar Baby? Friend? Girlfriend? Sugar baby is certainly spot on, but there’s no way she’d say that out loud to anyone else. Let it be a secret between Kalea and Arthur.
