"Yes. It seems like yesterday I had a sweet dream. That's why, I was able to meet Grandma today! If I knew Grandma would visit me like this. I must have prepared some provisions for grandma. Aunt Ane's cooking is very good. But of course, the chef cooking at grandma's house is more than delicious! Do you want to eat something? "
Cleo asked in a hasty manner and tried to be kind and considerate. Cleo was happy. At least Madame Sofia's appearance would have comforted her a little.
Then she remembered something.
"Do you want me to call Harry?" Cleo asked, offering to run away quickly for a while.
But Mrs. Sofia refused.
"No need. What are you calling him for, if I know he must be very busy right now. Besides, I came here on purpose just to see how you're doing. I hope you don't have much difficulty adapting, " Sofia said as she took Cleo's hand and gave her support.
Cleo smiled kindly.
"Grandma, don't worry! I haven't done much hard work. But so far, I still need a lot to learn and get used to. Isn't that right, Grandma? " Cleo asked trying not to worry Sofia.
But Sofia still wanted to continue helping her.
"Yes. That's why I came here to see you. Say it! If there is anything difficult, Grandma can help. Whatever it is, Grandma will try to afford it, " Sofia said encouragingly.
Cleo couldn't help but looked at her happily.
Grandmother! Please don't be too nice to your granddaughter-in-law! You never know what tomorrow will bring and how bad is the true nature of your granddaughter-in-law? If you knew all her bad behavior, would you still be able to say that?
Cloe looked anxiously at Sofia.
And when she thought about what Harry might do when she saw his grandmother with he. The man who was like a walking ghost appeared and jumped out of nowhere without her knowing it.
"What are you doing here?" Harry asked in his distinctive baritone voice.
Today the man was wearing a dark blue suit and long formal trousers with thin, slightly sweet stripes. With a hairstyle that he waxes neatly up more often, the man manages to show off his perfect and lanky good looks. Because the man's height reached 187cm.
With his tall stature and long legs, the man sat on the edge of the table. Staring at Cleo and Sofia with an indifferent attitude, then asked her grandmother flatly.
"And what are you here for?" he asked curiously, looking straight at Sofia.
Sofia turned to look at her grandson.
"Are you back?" Sofia asked. Absolutely did not answering Harry's question to her.
Harry then then turned to Cleo. As if asking for an answer, Cleo immediately represented.
"Grandma came here to see me. She said she was worried, "Cleo replied blindly.
Harry just kept quiet. And Sofia then asked him the question back.
"Is your work finished?" Sofia asked curiously. She looked at Harry as if she was eagerly awaiting his answer. Harry's eyebrows lifted slightly.
"How about the three of us have lunch together?" Sofia asked, making a suggestion.
Harry immediately rejected it, "I'm not hungry," a short reply which certainly meant that he didn't want to eat together.
Sofia then looked at Cleo. Cleo blinked once.
Did Mrs. Sofia ask her for answers?
Eat or not ? She thought slowly.
She gave Harry a dubious glance. She knew it wasn't easy to persuade Harry to join in for the meal. But if Cleo could occasionally leave the office to breathe fresh air, wouldn't that be more fun?
Cleo answered doubtfully, "I'm hungry. But I'm sure, it would be great if we all ate out together? Are you really not hungry? " Cleo asked.
If Cleo wasn't allowed to hang out with grandma too often, wouldn't it be okay if the three of them were socializing together with Harry as the mediator?
Well, although more often Cleo was the mediator between the two of them because they were the ones who argued too often. But shouldn't a grandchild and grandmother hang out with each other and familiarize themselves?
Come to think of it, that was also the main duty of a good wife. Unite the two family members who were not her family. And even though she only had the status of a contract wife, wasn't that okay ?!
But who knows what Harry would say, Cleo and Sofia just stared at him curiously. The two of them had proposed their willingness to eat together. Could it be that Harry would reject it?
The continued stares of the two made Harry finally give an answer.
"I will ask Dirga to reserve the place," Harry said flatly, which was immediately freed by Cleo and Sofia simultaneously.
The two of them toss together. Then laugh with joy.
Mission accomplished! Both thought.
The first mission, eat together with his married grandchildren!
Second mission, lunch outside the office!
Harry stared at the two's reactions, both uncertainly and doubtfully. Was this the right decision? Why did he feel as if there was some kind of conspiracy nearby? Should he be impoverished by his words and cancel the reservation?
But when he saw his grandmother looked very happy and enthusiastic, Harry then decided to give up and finally contacted Dirga to ask him to make a reservation.
Having finished doing that, Harry gave a slight smile at the two.
"Yes .. at least as she said, this is not a bad thing" Harry thought aside.
***
After completing the reservation and contacting Harry again to provide an appropriate location. Sofia, Harry and Cleo went together to the place Dirga had arranged for them.
Then without having to wait long for the three of them to arrive at their destination, the three of them have now arrived at a restaurant not too far from Harry's office.
The restaurant, which had a classic Japanese theme, had successfully captured Cleo's attention in one glance. Her eyes moved swiftly around all corners.
"So this restaurant was recommended by Dirga to you?" Cleo asked enthusiastically. She stared at the restaurant with sparkling eyes. Then turned to Harry excitedly.
Harry gave her a confused look. And Cleo even smiled happily.
"Dirga is very clever in choosing a place. I used to work at this restaurant. Although it is not a starred restaurant and the price is very expensive. This restaurant is very famous for its seafood. So, are we going to have lunch here today? "
Cleo said cheerfully. To the extent that she didn't notice was Harry's gaze, which was so sharp as it was aiming for her. Until then Cleo saw it and immediately realized.
"Ah, I mean .. the food here is so delicious! I'm sure Grandma would really like it! But, is it okay if you eat foods with high cholesterol?"
Cleo tried to change her conversation to something else, before she was reprimanded even more.
However, instead of responding to Cleo's question, which was worried about her health, Sofia felt attracted to what Cleo had said earlier.
"So, you've worked here before?" Sofia asked, curious.
Cleo immediately fell down and looked at Harry. Ask him to help answer. But Harry just ignored it.
Cleo raised an eyebrow.
Didn't Harry have a cooperative attitude? Why did he easily ignore her when he didn't really want Cleo to tell her what she had been doing before they got married!
Did this time Cleo had to lie and sin again?
Hah! If calculated, Cleo's lying sins would have been hilly by now. Did not know if there was still a place for her to atone for sins!
Cleo sneered Harry silently. Then made a friendly smile for her beloved mistress. Mrs. Sofia!
"Hehe .. You could say like that, Grandma!" Cleo replied stiffly with a small laugh. She looked anxiously at Mrs. Sofia.
No way, Cleo said that she used to be a waiters there? Mrs. Sofia will definitely went into shock. Even though Cleo herself did not know so far, Mrs. Sofia had any idea about Cleo. But not saying it, was certainly the best thing for Cleo.
Because Cleo still felt the piercing gaze from her left side! Could it be that Harry was currently pointing a knife at her secretly?
"Because of that, I would recommend this restaurant's signature menu! That is, if my husband doesn't mind. How?" Cleo said carelessly while deliberately mentioning the word "husband" to pay more attention to her.
Cleo threw all the decisions on Harry who was already staring at hee in disbelief.
Seeing that Harry did not answer and did not have any objection to what he had decided, Cleo was immediately convinced that this time Cleo was allowed to take control.
She ordered several menus that she remembered were the best and offered them to Grandma while showing them.
"Grandma, this food is not high cholesterol and good for the body. The taste is also very good he said. So I'll order one for grandma. Then for Harry I will also order some menus that are the mainstay of this restaurant, "
