Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

"Why are you playing secrets from me?" He shouted, was not happy, and glanced at Dirga.

"So actually you already know something, but pretended not to know when I ask?" Alfin asked negatively accusing Dirga and narrowed his eyes suspiciously.

Dirga put on a pitiful face.

For whatever reason, Dirga himself did not understand what they were talking about. So where can he answer that accusation?

While walking toward Harry, Dirga asked his master what he needed. Harry replied nonchalantly.

"Revision of the contract letter," Harry said immediately and Cleo immediately looked at him in shock. Meanwhile, Dirga looked at him confused and Alfin stared at him without understanding.

Cleo, who didn't know that Alfin already knows about their contract marriage, gave a code to Harry that Alfin was still with them. So Harry shouldn't say anything about the contract that would lead to misunderstanding.

But Harry casually ignored Cleo. And continued his words.

"I have written the full details in this paper. So make the revisions immediately and print. Share one with her and one for me," Harry said casually and ignored Cleo's disbelief who had protested.

Cleo looked back at Harry in surprise. And Dirga had complied with Harry's request by keeping the letter he wrote in his pocket.

Seeing that, Cleo asked her question.

"Could it be ... Alfin also knows about the contract?" Cleo seemed displeased with this ignorance.

And Harry just silenced like that without speaking. So that Cleo's gaze now turned to Dirga. Dirga who was stared at, immediately corrected the location of his glasses first before he answered.

"Yes, miss. Mr. Alfin also knew about your contract marriage from the start, " Dirga explained briefly, along with Alfin's grin, which showed his neat teeth.

Cleo looked at the three men with a frozen face. Why didn't anyone tell her that in the first place? Wasn't her knowledge needed? Cleo grumbled in her heart.

Then when she decided not to debate the insignificant issue, Cleo excused herself to go home.

"Okay! Since the problem is resolved, I better go home!" Cleo exclaimed lazily. And at that very second, Harry's cell phone rang.

Harry picked up the phone call and answered.

"What's the matter, Grandma?" Harry asked, in a not very good mood. And everyone listened to that phone call. Including Cleo who almost would leave there if she didn't hear Harry mentioning his grandmother's name on the phone.

"Grandma just wants to talk to your wife? Is she with you?" Sofia asked from across the phone.

Harry glanced at Cleo briefly then muttered.

"Hem. Yes, Grandma. What is wrong?" Harry asked.

"Give her your telephone. Grandma wants to talk, " Sofia said, asking Cleo for the phone. And Harry immediately complied.

Harry gave the cellphone reluctantly and turned on the speaker. Cleo then greeted Sofia.

"Hello, Grandma! Grandma how are you ?! Are you looking for me? " Cleo asked cheerfully and tried to be friendly. So that she can immediately change her bad mood earlier.

Dirga, Alfin, and Harry stared in surprise at Cleo's change of attitude. Until Sofia's voice came back from the speakerphone.

"Yes, dear. Grandma is fine and misses you so much! Are you busy?" Sofia joined in cheerfully and the three men who could hear her speech frowned.

How close were they? The three of them stared with strange eyes.

Cleo ignored those glances and quickly answered, "No, Grandma! I'm not busy. Grandma need something?" Cleo asked.

"No dear, grandma was just worried that grandma couldn't contact you? Your cell phone doesn't turn on, honey?" Sofia asked, asking about Cleo which was difficult to contact, and finding out the cause.

Cleo immediately checked her cellphone and apologized.

"Sorry, Grandma! Looks like the battery is running out, " Cleo recalled the cellphone that she had used to play games. Her cellphone's battery must have been low because of that without her knowing it.

Sofia understood.

"Then, do you and Harry have time for tonight? I want to invite you to have dinner together. Incidentally, Tina's parents are out of town. So right now the house must be very quiet. Can you come over here to stop by? " Sofia asked hopefully.

Cleo immediately cast her eyes on Harry, asking for approval. Harry, who was being asked, raised his eyebrows. And even Alfin voiced his opinion first.

"Grandmother! Can I come? " Alfin asked, offering himself to join the dinner together.

Sofia, who just found out that Alfin was there, replied.

"Alfin, are you there too?" Sofia asked with a crisp laugh.

She added, "Of course you can! Isn't it the more the better? " Sofia asked happily and offered Dirga to come with them too.

"Also invite Dirga if he is with you. I haven't seen him for a long time. So you better make sure he will come too. Like I said, the more the better!" Sofia exclaimed excitedly and Alfin agreed immediately.

"Fine, Grandma! Then we will arrive in approximately one hour from now, "Alfin exclaimed as he ended the phone call. And everyone was decided to come together to Sofia's place.

"Then I will prepare the car," Dirga exclaimed on standby as he left the room. And Alfin hurriedly replied.

"I'll come with your car," Alfin exclaimed, glancing at Harry. And Dirga also listened.

Not less than 15 minutes. Harry's car was parked beautifully in front of the lobby to pick them up. Dirga, who realized his duty, opened the door for the three of them and invited them to enter.

Alfin, who was already excited from the start, took a seat in the corner first to fill the passenger seat at the back.

Followed by Cleo, who had lowered her head to follow Alfin to sit beside him. Thinking Harry would not like it if she had to sit in the middle to be a clamp between two people.

But her intention was canceled by Harry's actions, who suddenly pulled her backward to replace her to sit first. So Cleo had to give in to sit down afterward.

Sitting on the other corner with Harry's position in the middle between herself and Alfin. Dirga managed to close the rear car door when he made sure everyone was comfortably seated in it.

Dirga then opened the front passenger car door and sat next to Mr. Gray, who had been holding the wheel since earlier.

The five of them went to grandma's house with a calm atmosphere and occasionally chatted briefly with Alfin, who often opened up conversations. Alfin even glanced a little at Harry meaningfully because he thought his actions were a bit strange.

However, he did not voice and chose to discuss other matters that would make the atmosphere on their journey more lively.

"It's been a long time since I've been to Grandma's house. When was the last time?" Alfin said, opening the conversation by reminiscing his past in Sofia's big house.

"Em ... looks like last December because there was a Christmas event at Grandma's house at that time. Is that right, Harry?" Alfin asked while glancing slightly at his cousin.

Harry didn't give many answers and just cleared his throat.

"I hope grandma won't scold me because I rarely go there. Grandma can remember Dirga rarely put his face in front of her. So what happened to me who was almost half the year to see her yet? She wouldn't be lecturing me at length, right? " Alfin asked, continuing to tell him what troubles Sofia would have to do with him.

Harry gave him a quick glance.

"If you're afraid, you don't have to come to her house. Get out and come home, " Harry replied indifferently.

Alfin immediately sneered.

"You are! Why don't you ever give me your support ?! What good is the bonding of extended family relations between us? Do you think this is just a pedigree in the family book? " Alfin taunted him again while throwing his lazy gaze again.

 He leaned back in his chair.

"I hope Grandma can cross you off the pedigree!" Alfin said, irritated because he kept getting cold treatment from Harry.

Cleo chuckled at the conversation between the two. And Harry watched the chuckle quietly.

***

It could've been said that Sofia was not a rigid person like her grandson who had straight lines as her offspring. Sofia, who was always more open and willing to listen to people, even though sometimes she can be just as stubborn as Harry.

Never once did she treat her family unkindly.

Even though Alfin and his grandmother have descendants that were far enough and tortuous to be connected to Sofia. Grandma Sofia never treated him badly.

Even when compared to his own parents. Grandma Sofia was arguably more family than them. That's why when Alfin was a child, Alfin used to play at his grandmother's house.

However, over time and his various youths, Alfin began to rarely visit the house. At least once a month he would stop by. However, it did not rule out that once or twice a year was also required by him.
