Marie saw that her husband rolled his eyes after his parent left him, then facing her.
"They didn't say anything weird about me during my absence, did they?""As far as I know," she said, laughing with amusement at Keith's cute reaction. "Apart from telling you how bad you were at school, nothing. Really""Oh, shit… even though I want you to only know my good side. My mom always likes to get involved in people's business," Keith took a deep breath for a moment, then took her hand. "Well, whatever. We'd better go somewhere quieter. Come with me.""I have no problem staying here.""No problem?" the man frowned, looking her up and down. The man's non-gripping hand touched her cheek, channelling the man's warm temperature over her body. "With this pale, looking tired face?""I thought my makeup could cover it up.""It might be able to trick everyone's eyes, but not mine," Keith took her hand, led her out of the hallwaRelated chapters

Keith froze when he heard the words that had just slipped out of Marie's lips, which were smeared with the dark red lip cream. He swallowed hard repeatedly, staring at Marie, who was waiting anxiously for his answer."Has something been on your mind recently, Marie?" he said after he had recovered from his shock, tried to dodge her question. "I told you earlier. You can tell me anything, and I will try—"“Don't try to dodge my question just now, Keith. Just answer my question earlier," Marie snapped harshly. This was the first time she had done to him. It seemed that the woman was losing her temper and needed an immediate answer. The problem was, what kind of answer should he give to Marie? All the choices he had were difficult for him.If he said yes to the promise she made, it meant that he would have to tell his wife about another identity as the leader of the Aldebrando mafia group that he has been trying to hide tightly from her, at the risk of the

Aura's eyes flickered as she turned and found Patricia coming out of her room, wearing a midi dress with a light blue flare skirt that matched the woman's spring-type skin tone, light beige wedges, and a small bag that matched the colour of her wedges, which hung over the woman's left shoulder, perfecting her appearance.At least, her struggle to wait for the woman for twenty minutes—while she was also using that time to looking for the information Keith requested the other day through her smartphone with an application she created by herself so that she could stay connected to her computer at home all the day—was not in vain. It all paid off with Patricia's appearance that was so charming in her eyes until she did not know what to say to compliment her perfect appearance.Patricia's short, light brown shoulder-length hair was only pinned on the right side with a butterfly-shaped clip, after styling it with a hair iron to make it slightly wavy. The make-up
Our Agreement Chapter 58
It has been several hours since Alan finished discussing with Keith about Arthur Hermann's case that he just got from Victor yesterday, also listening to Keith's request about a journalist, which he found was a bit strange, actually. He had no other choice but to comply with his boss's request if he still wanted to keep his job and returned to the room where Tatius was waiting for him, but there was neither of them tried to break the silence they made. Tatius himself was busy with his own thoughts, which he did not know what the man was thinking. All he could do was guessing his boyfriend's mind while thinking about the right questions to ask his boyfriend for fear that his recently more sensitive boyfriend would get angry. Most likely, he guessed that the man was still worrying about his plans to introduce the man to his parents, as well as his plans to coming out to reveal his identity as pansexual, which to the best of his knowledge was the most taboo in his religion before he ch

Patricia watched in amazement as soon as she got out of her car after Aura took the initiative to open the car door for her and arrived at Keith's parent's house, which was already filled with so many people. For the size of a small cafe owner, Keith's parents' house was quite large, which surprised her a little as she had thought the party would be held on a small scale.But that was not what surprised her. It was also not for entering the house to find that many banquets of food and drink were available on the long table in the living room and at the warm welcome of Keith's parents, whom she had not seen for a long time when she saw their presence. A husband and wife with a warm, cheerful personality immediately made her feel like she has just returned home, very different from Keith's personality that the man always wore, which she thought was a little gloomy behind his cute face. The difference with their parents, who were very concerned about prestige and the views of

Cecilia Esther sipped red wine, which was one of the wines she got for free from Charles Hermann's vineyard—her adoptive father, who she already thought him as her own father because her biological parents had died when she was four years old—slowly looking out the view of Rose city from the chaise lounge on the balcony, which also served as a mini garden for the penthouse.The penthouse where she lived now since she managed to move from her grandfather's mansion to the penthouse that she bought from her hard work as a freelance financial analyst since four years ago so as not to continuedly depending on her grandparents. She was bringing along her adoptive father, who initially refused her offer at first, but then he decided to followed her once she used her puppy eyes looks that always managed in making her adoptive father had no choice but to indulge her wishes. Indeed, her grandparents never bothered her existence in the family—especially her grandmother b

Tatius listened attentively to Keith's explanation of the detail of what he should do in the cafe on his first day he worked here. Starting from welcoming guests in a friendly manner and not forgetting to make eye contact when greeting customers to make customers feel comfortable. That part he felt was not a problem, as it was what he did usually at his old workplace, when he was still working as a waiter. But what made him a little confused was when he had to ask the customer's name and memorize every customer's habit in every detail.Realizing his confusion, Keith paused for his long explanation, looking at her worriedly. "Do you think it's too difficult for you to do the last part? You can skip the section on remembering the details of a customer's habits if you'd like. It's not a necessity, only if you can, it's even better."
Our Agreement Chapter 62
To be honest, she was feeling anxious, as she had a butterfly in her stomach right now. Not because she entered her menstrual schedule, or because she drank stomach laxatives or had diarrhoea. But because she thought that in two days, she would come to their parents' house with Alan, bring their respective partners, and come out in front of their parents, both as a pansexual for Alan, and her as a lesbian.Okay, the comparison that she took before to describe her anxious feeling was not really cool, but it illustrated the feeling that came to her right now.Actually, it was not part of her life plan. Her plan was she would choose to cover up her identity as a lesbian forever as she did not intend to come out from the start. However, she could not bear to let her twin brother face the difficulties common to peop
Our Agreement Chapter 63
Patricia could not help herself but smile a little as soon as she finished texting her girlfriend, ignoring the strange gaze from her editor, a curt man of Korean descent named Park Jinhee. "Already completed with your business? Then, could we resume the discussion, Miss Patricia Caroline?" The man's cold smile along with the way he called her by her full name, managed to make her tense up instantly. Immediately, she placed the smartphone on her desk, then sat with her legs crossed, leaning her legs towards Park to make it appear that she was enthusiastic about listening to the man's discussion seriously. Even though given to the fact that she really wanted to immediately kick the man out of her apartment and arrange her apartment to welcome Aura. She could not wait to give her the answer to the woman that she agreed to her invitation the other day to join dinner with her girlfriend's parent this week.
