Chapter 150

150 Unclear Feeling

“You don’t usually take me out,” Angela said as she ate the steak her brother had cut.

“Not usually? You’re saying I’m not paying attention to you,” Arthur snorted, with his lips turned downward. It looked like he was sulking at his own sister.

“Isn’t that the case? It’s been a while since we’ve spent time together. You’ve been busy with women, or Kalea.”

Arthur was silent, preferring to sip his wine as he looked out over the city at night from the five-star restaurant located on the top floor. Angela furrowed her brow in surprise, as her brother did not answer or even change the subject if she mentioned Arthur’s sugar baby.

“Do you have a problem with that guy?” Angela asked.

Instead of answering, Arthur asked back, “You don’t hate Lea anymore?”

“Brother, answer my question first. You’ve been acting very strange and suspicious today,” Angela urged, looking at Arthur seriously, not a hint of humor there.

Arthur sighed, placing his empty wine glass on the table. “Nothing. What’s wrong with wanting to spend time with my own sister? Didn’t you always ask me to accompany you on outings? Now you don’t hate her?”

“It’s not that I don’t like it, but it just feels so weird...,” Angela replied, a little badly for making her brother so moody and lackluster. “I’m sorry.”

.....

“What are you sorry for? You’ve done nothing wrong,” Arthur said with a chuckle. The change in his expression was so drastic, it made Angela think there was something wrong between her brother and the woman he had fought with.

Today, Angela was surprised by Arthur coming to the house with the intention of taking her out. Spending time together solely for the two of them Actually, Angela was very happy, even though this was the first time they had spoken since the incident at the hospital. Angela was a little awkward even with her own brother, but Arthur’s very casual attitude, as if nothing had happened between them, eventually made Angela slowly follow her brother’s lead.

Angela was really curious about their relationship. Especially after she said that Arthur’s feelings are definitely no longer considering Kalea as a sugar baby. She was sure that had something to do with it because her brother really did not seem to want to talk about the girl.

“Brother, if there’s something that’s getting on your mind, you can tell me,” Angela said, breaking the silence between them. Arthur turned back to his sister.

“Hm? What if you’re the one who’s getting on my nerves?” Arthur teased, still with his sweet smile.

“W-what? So it’s me?!” Angela squealed in disbelief. Slowly lowering her shoulders, she lethargically ate the last piece of steak. “W-well, I admit I was the one throwing a tantrum earlier.”

“Shh, never mind. I don’t want to talk about the past. I’m fine anyway, don’t worry.”

It was not that easy for Angela to believe. Although as she grew older, she and Arthur were not together as much as siblings, but Angela still knew Arthur by heart. Arthur used to smile very sweetly and often took a sip of wine every time he spoke. Distracting himself by drinking whatever it was, that was Arthur’s habit.

“I don’t like how you are pushing yourself to look okay. I don’t believe it, brother,” Angela said, wiping the corner of her lips with a napkin. “While we can talk together, why don’t we tell each other stories? Whatever it is.”

Arthur blinked, he was silent for a moment and then he took a deep breath. “From what you said back then, I’ve been thinking about it more and more.”

“Which- ah, that one.” Angela understood what her brother meant and where the conversation was going.

“I also realized.”

“Then what are you going to do? How do you feel about her?” Angela asked.

Again Arthur was silent, just staring at the empty wine glass.

“Do you like her?”

“Yes, I like her. She’s a very attractive girl,” Arthur replied quickly. However, Angela’s reaction was to roll her eyes lazily.

“I’ll change my question. Do you love her?”

Arthur did not answer.

“You love her,” Angela summed up her brother’s answer and reaction.

“It’s not that-”

“Brother, if you don’t intend to be serious with her, it’s better to end your contract immediately,” Angela cut in with a very serious look that left Arthur speechless, looking as obedient as a dog to its master. “Because if you continue to be together, feelings of love will really arise. Aren’t you ready for marriage yet? Moreover, mom and dad will keep pushing you two,” Angela continued with a point.

“...You’re right.” Arthur clenched his hands quite tightly, but he slowly exhaled. The corners of his lips lifted up to show the characteristic smile of the man who had a mole under his eye. “I’ll get back to thinking about it. Thanks, Angela.”

Actually Angela still wanted to discuss her brother’s problem, but Arthur really did not want to give her more details. Arthur then invited Angela to go home with him, driving her home.

On the other hand, Kalea who had just finished decorating the cake, was now looking proudly at her homemade cake. Because her daily activities were more free time, Kalea was bored and finally did something to kill the boredom. She’s been in the kitchen all day, experimenting with making various desserts while watching video tutorials.

She was a little disappointed that Arthur had left her on this beautiful weekend. However, she knew Arthur had other things to do besides work.

“It’s delicious. Haha, of course it’s good because I did it as instructed,” Kalea muttered to herself. She lifted the last piece of work onto the fridge. Kalea looked at the contents of her refrigerator, which was now filled with the results of her experiment. “Hmm, it’s full. Who can finish all this?”

Kalea looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it was 9pm, so she decided to end her cooking. Kalea washed her body before getting ready for bed. Being alone, she could not expect much from her sugar daddy. Although Kalea’s mind was heading in a negative direction.

Arthur must be having fun with other women on this beautiful Sunday night. Meanwhile, she was all alone in that huge penthouse.

Just as she was about to close her eyes, the door to her room opened and there appeared Arthur in quite a mess. When Kalea woke up, she looked at Arthur a little confused.

“You came back here? Why didn’t you tell me?” Kalea asked.

Arthur just smiled as he walked over to his sugar baby. “You’re not asleep yet, hm?” Arthur asked back, sitting on the bed as he took off his coat and watch. And just like that, Arthur suddenly pulled Kalea’s arm, putting her in his arms.

“Were you waiting for me to come back?” Arthur asked with a tearful gaze as he caressed Kalea’s cheek ever so gently.

“You’re drunk, aren’t you?” Kalea asked back with a flat expression.

“What? No. You know I don’t get drunk easily,” Arthur replied defensively.

However, Kalea did not fully believe him. She tugged on Arthur’s collar so she could get closer to him and see if her sugar daddy was telling the truth or lying. Kalea sniffed a few times, but it was not just the smell of alcohol, the fragrance of a woman’s perfume entered her life.

Kalea pushed Arthur’s body away from her and she was able to escape the man’s confinement. “You’re drunk,” Kalea said very briefly and put the blanket back on to cover her beautiful body, which was only wearing satin pajamas.

“I’m not. Come here, sweetheart. Don’t you miss me?” Arthur pulled Kalea’s arm again Kalea’s arm but this time Kalea still insisted on rejecting Arthur. “Lea, don’t ignore me.”

Kalea bit her lower lip, on second thought, Kalea felt that her defenses were crumbling due to this man in front of her.

Kalea then turned back to face her sugar daddy, with that sexy and sad gaze she only showed to Arthur. Not to mention that her beautiful body was now visible because the blanket was lowered to her waist. “Of course I missed you. Daddy, where have you been today? Is playing outside more fun than being with me?”

Actually, Kalea was really lonely without Arthur. Since the arrival of her sugar daddy, he was the only one who was always by her side. However, lately she felt that Arthur did not come to the penthouse very often. In fact, he only came to see her two to three times this week. Kalea knew that he must be very busy at work, even though her heart ached if Arthur went back to playing with other women. However, it came back to the rules of the contract that had been written. She had no say in the matter.

Kalea started to move closer to Arthur, cupping both of the man’s cheeks, her hazel eyes staring fixedly at the gray eyes that made her feel distantly in love. “Daddy, you didn’t answer my question.”

“Do you want a lie or an honest answer?” Arthur asked back, his hands starting to hold Kalea’s waist.

“Honest answer.”

Arthur chuckled amusedly, he brought his face closer and kissed a glimpse of Kalea’s seductive lips. His big hand lifted Kalea’s chin and after the kiss broke, Arthur replied, “Of course it’s more fun to play with you. Tonight, want to do it?”

Kalea returned the smile no less seductively. “With pleasure.”

Whether Arthur was aware of her feelings or not, Kalea could not hold back any longer.
