Chapter 153 - 153 ( Investigating )
Cleo looked at him in disbelief.
What this hell!?
He was so great at insulting her! Until Cleo willing to included big applause for him.
They finally got home with Cleo's annoyed and bent faces. Ane and Julia looked surprised to see the change in their expressions.
Felt like they still did not too used to seeing Julia appear at the house because Cleo asked the woman to extend the time to stay overnight. Harry glanced slightly at her, then ignore her.
Harry then too walked into his room to wash his face and take a shower. He then came out of the room again and got ready to go back to the office.
Harry gave some messages to Ane.
"Don't let her out of the house today. And make sure she gets plenty of rest because a dangerous incident happened this afternoon. She needs a lot of calming down," Harry warned seriously.
Cleo was a little surprised when she heard all the lengthy advice from Harry that seemed to worry about her so much. It was as if he really didn't want Cleo to think too much and asked Aunt Ane to make sure she calmed down.
Aunt Ane nodded slightly confused. Didn't ask anything because she felt it was not within her authority.
Harry then glanced slightly at Julia who was still near Cleo. Then, without realizing it, he felt as if he had seen that woman somewhere. Harry then walked out of the house and left with his driver.
While Julia looked worried when she heard what Cleo's husband said. Started to look at Cleo seriously, when the sound of Harry's car had away and disappeared.
"What exactly does your husband mean?" asked Julia curiously. Cleo asked another question instead.
"What are you doing at this hour? Shouldn't you still be at your workplace?" Cleo asked a little surprised.
Julia answered lazily.
"You should have answered my question first. Besides, I can't focus on work if Mike keeps waiting for me in front of the shop where I work. So today I was forced to not go to work and came home early to looking for a new place to live. I will move from here about the day after tomorrow," said Julia, who finally gave up and answered Cleo's question first.
Cleo seemed to be listening to her words more seriously.
"Your boyfriend came to see you again?"
Julia nodded.
"Yes. And his face looks very annoyed at that time. I know he must be upset because he couldn't find me at home. He would definitely keep waiting for me there until he could find me. So I had to ask for my resignation sooner. Thank you. Thanks to you, I was able to get a new, more promising job."
Julia spoke very calmly when some time ago she was worried that Mike, her boyfriend, would find her somewhere and somehow.
Cleo had once told Julia that if she had signed and worked on this project, then Julia's safety would automatically be guaranteed. And her husband's company will provide the housing facilities she needed while she was doing the job.
And for some reason, Julia couldn't accept the extra kindness but agreed about the security they offered. Julia was given the freedom to report anything to the company if Mike interfered with her again.
Julia's feelings became much calmer because of that. But she couldn't deny that she was afraid if Mike tried to be reckless. Until then Julia tried to focus more on listening to Cleo's story.
"Now tell me how serious your problem is?" Julia looked curiously.
Now that they had known each other for a while, Julia and Cleo seemed more comfortable and relaxed in talking as if they were close friends. But can't close the feelings of the two who were not too close to each other because both were extrovert women.
Cleo glanced at Julia for a moment as she thought, then answered her.
"At first I just wanted to quell the anger of the masses at the construction site of the project I was working on. But suddenly a worker threw stones at me. Luckily, the stones didn't hit me. But instead, it was hitting my close friend who tried to help."
Cleo's explanation briefly made Julia became extremely surprised.
"There's someone who threw stones at you? How come?" Julia asked anxiously. And she knew the situation at that time must be very dangerous. So it was no wonder if Cleo's husband became very protective afterward.
Julia was quite worried about her.
"I do not understand too. But suddenly that person threw stones at me and I couldn't dodge because it happened so suddenly. Harry has dealt with the problem afterward."
Cleo then realized that she hadn't had time to ask Harry what he was going to do to the troublesome guy. She was annoyed with the unknown worker but also didn't want this problem to be prolonged.
Cleo decided would inquire about the continuation of this matter later, once they had enough time to talk about it.

Elsewhere, someone seemed to be seriously thinking about something. That man suddenly entered the hospital room. Walked up to a man who was leaning casually on his bed.
Mark greeted his young master.
"Young master, sorry that our people couldn't protect you back then," Mark deep bowed.
Willy didn't seem too bothered by it. Didn't even seem to care. His mind was now more focused on other things that he considered more important.
"Didn't I ask you guys not to follow me wherever I go? Don't apologize for things that I didn't ask for," Willy showed his displeasure to the rules made by his father.
Mark seemed to have gotten used to Willy's complaints. Until Willy then mumbled his other thoughts.
"I asked you to come here to do something. But before that, there's one thing I want to know. Do you know a woman named Aretta?" Willy asked to the point.
Mark frowned slightly.
"Aretta? Which Aretta,
Sir?" Mark asked whether he pretended not to know or did not understand.
Willy replied.
"The woman I worked with to take care of the project my father gave me. Do you know her?" Willy asked in more detail.
Willy looked at Mark quite seriously.
"She should be also at the construction site. However, for some reason, she wasn't there. Do you know anything?" Willy asked with a questioning look.
Mark simply replied, "I don't know, Sir."
Mark's words made Willy a little dissatisfied.
"I only know that she is Mr. Robby's new employee. She's only been working for Big Master for 2 months. Today she took a day off because she had to take care of her personal business. Then I don't really know what's going on at the construction site," Mark answered bluntly.
Willy looked at him suspiciously.
"Is that true?" he asked a little disbelievingly.
Mark replied curtly, "Yes!"
Willy didn't really mind it too much because he wasn't too sure of his own thinking. Also, there was no evidence. Willy was just worried if what Harry suspected earlier was true.
Harry seemed so curious about Aretta's whereabouts that it invited Willy's curiosity. Willy then asked Mark again.
"Do you know what women have to do with Harry Miles?"
Willy asked, shot his curiosity straight away.
Willy was sure there had been something between the two of them. But what it was exactly, Willy couldn't figure it out yet. Could they have a certain relationship?
Mark was silent.
Mark knew a little that Aretta and Harry Miles had a special relationship. But that happened years ago. And he had only recently received this information, not a long ago.
Mark wasn't sure whether he was allowed by his Big Master to tell his Young Master about this matter or not.
Until Mark was thinking hard.
Willy was impatiently waiting for the answer, so he wondered even more.
"Aren't you going to answer?" Willy asked uncomfortably.
Mark had no choice but to give his answer
"I don't know, sir. But if you ask for it, I can help to investigate it. So should I investigate that too?" Mark asked, pretended to give a helping hand.
Willy shook his head disapprovingly.
"For the time being, it's not necessary," said Willy, who actually wanted to ask Mark to investigate, but felt it was too against the rules of the code of ethics for social relations.
Willy had done it once when he had asked them to investigate Harry and had not found much information. But in reality, Willy should have done just that once.
And didn't do things that were not necessary because he was sure that later he will know the clarity himself. Willy finally gave up.
"Just focus on investigating what Harry's side did regarding to the construction issue. And tell me if everything that happened there was intentional. Tell me anything, including who the mastermind is and what the cause is if you find anything."
Mark immediately agreed.
Their conversation ended. Mark immediately went to meet his big boss.
