S2| 75. Too Intense
"Like siblings?" Mia asked, testing.
"Yes. In the past, whenever Julian had a fight with Max, he always ran off to Mr. Carter's house. There, we spent a lot of time together. But, since Julian's heartbreak and fled to another city, we never saw each other again. Our relationship was broken, until finally, you sent a cooperation proposal to our email,” Liam explained as he circled the table and ended up in front of the secretary.
After tilting his head and warming his gaze, the man flashed the best smile. "Thank you for making today's meeting happen, Miss."
Unknowingly, Mia gulped. Liam's gaze was too intense for her.
“Why are you thanking me, Sir? I am only in charge of submitting proposal. The idea came from Mister Julian. So, you should be thanking him, not me,” the girl said, blinking the other way.
"As for Julian, I should ask for his apology. He's already put Mr. Carter and me in a memory he wanted to throw away. Just because

After a moment of silence, Julian raised his voice again. "She is my lover."In an instant, Mia's heart was beating fast. She didn't expect that the CEO would admit her status in front of Liam.However, before the girl had time to think of a response to show, the man beside her had already snorted."Do you think I believe it? A woman as sweet as Miss Sanders could not possibly fall for a man as emotional as you. She definitely wants a man who can treat her gently and lovingly.”Hearing the ridicule, the CEO's ears suddenly heated up.“How dare you underestimate me,” Julian grumbled before looking straight at the secretary. “Mia, quickly tell this man about our relationship. He really needs an explanation.”Unexpectedly, the girl's hands clenched. The image of Julian with Katniss had clouded her senses. Forcing a smile, she turned to Liam.“Please ignore Mr. Evans' words. He really likes to joke arou

“What's wrong, Miss Sanders? Why are you standing here?” Liam whispered, making the secretary take a quick breath and lift her head.While blinking, the girl looked for an excuse."I ..." Mia sighed as she waited for the brain to send an idea. Right at that moment, the girl's eyes fell on the tray she was carrying. "I forget whether this tea has been given sugar or not," she continued, nodding.After replaying the memory for a while, the man who was also holding the tray said, “Yes, you have. I saw you put a spoon in it.""Are you sure?" Mia asked, pretending to be stupid. She needed to buy some time for the sadness to sink from her eyes."Yeah," Liam said before sending a signal over the line of sight. "Let's go in. The CEOs must have been waiting.”“Yes,” the girl replied before gulping. Strengthening her grip, she walked towards the table between the sofas.As soon as he saw Mia enter with Liam,

“Mia, may I borrow Julian for a moment?” Katniss asked between gasps. She completely ignored the expression on the face that was avoiding her. "What's the matter, Katniss?" the man inquired with furrowed brows. Without waiting for the secretary's reply, the uninvited guest grabbed Julian's arm to follow her. “Wait a minute, Katniss. You can't just drag me around like this," the man protested, trying to escape the model's grip. "I have a serious talk with Mia." "But this is more urgent, Julian," Katniss whispered as she placed the CEO's thumb on the sensor. As soon as the door opened, the two of them instantly disappeared from Mia's sight. In an instant, the tears flowed even more profusely. "Isn't that pretty obvious? What else would you like to talk about, Sir?” the secretary sighed, full of emphasis. A second later, the girl staggered towards her desk. After taking a deep breath, she sat down and wiped away the sadness.

"Hello? Mia? Are you okay?" Minnie asked because there was no sound. "Mom, I'll call you later. I have urgent work to do now," the secretary said, suppressing the trembling of her voice as best she could. "Mia—" Without waiting for the continuation of her mother's words, the girl hung up the phone. While rubbing her burning neck, she put the phone in her bag. "I can not take it anymore. I really can't." A second later, Mia left her desk, walking towards the elevator. The girl didn't care if there was still unfinished work. She didn't want to meet the man who had broken her heart. In the narrow room, the secretary hid behind the eyelids that felt very hot. The tears kept pushing out. As much as possible, Mia locked them in pain. “Stop crying! Aren't you embarrassed if other employees see your messy face?” the girl thought to herself. But unfortunately, the heart did not want to compromise. It continued to struggle, beati

After signing the affidavit and sealing it, Julian handed Katniss the piece of paper. "Are you sure this is enough to refute the wrong news about us?" the man asked with brows drawn in concern. "At least, we don't just sit back and let people think the news is true," Katniss said while putting the paper in the folder containing her statement. After nodding, Julian tilted his head and narrowed his eyes. “Will these rumors affect your reputation?” Without thinking, the woman chuckled. "Of course it matters, but I'm becoming more and more famous." “Then, after the affidavit is expanded, will you receive any bad repercussions?” "No. People will even praise me for being kind enough to help you out in between my very busy schedule,” Katniss replied as she put the folder into her big bag and got up from the chair. "Enough. Instead of worrying about my career, you better think about your lover. Before she hears from someone else, you have to t

"I'm sorry, Julian. Sorry," Herbert said as he bowed deeper. “I want to give the best for my sons. But ... everything I do always ends in fatal mistakes,” the man sighed, sounding like an afterthought. With blood already reaching the crown, Julian wanted to vent the anger. His forefinger was itching, about to blame his father, while his lips twitched, almost spitting out regret. However, before the CEO exploded with emotion, the image of Mia flashed back into his mind. Instantly, the man remembered that he had promised to be a man the girl could rely on. Looking up, Julian took a deep breath. Gradually, the burning feeling in the chest subsided. Fingers that were originally clenched tightly, began to stretch. A second later, his hands rose and landed lightly on both of his father's arms. "It's not your fault," the young man said in a low, trembling voice. After swallowing hard, he continued speaking. “I was too stupid and cowardly to be dishon

"Mia!" Julian called at the door of his lover's apartment. He had made loud noise several times. However, the girl who always filled his mind was nowhere to be seen. “Mia, please open the door! We have to talk!” Two seconds, three seconds, the atmosphere remains silent. Only Julian's roar shook the air. Not wanting to despair, the man banged on the door again. Right at that moment, his senses tapped. He just remembered with the bell that could be used near the door. Wasting no time, the man pressed the button as much as his heart screamed the girl's name. “Mia, we really need to talk. What the media reported is not true,” Julian exclaimed, regardless if his voice reached the back of the room or not. "Mia ..." Can't wait any longer, the man finally started inputing the passcode. However, as soon as he pushed the door, the digital key flashed a red light and again asked for numbers. In an instant, cold sweat covered Julian's nape. "No wa

While swallowing hard, Julian clenched his fists on the knees. After taking a deep breath, the man replied, “Please don't believe that news. Everything reported is not true.” "What's not true? Isn't it obvious that the beautiful model looks very happy holding your arm? You even smiled when you put the ring on her palm,” Minnie replied with a rock-hard expression. "But it's not what it seems. The media has been exaggerating,” the man whined. “The model and I—” "That's what Mia saw with her own eyes," the old woman interrupted while looking the other way. Tears could fall if she kept staring at the man who was still kneeling. Hearing the statement, Julian fell silent. His eyes quivered at the thought that his lover had been in pain longer than he imagined. "So, Mia was there ...," the man sighed, hard to accept reality. "Do you know how many tears my daughter has shed as the result of your behavior?" Minnie asked, still looking the other
