30 DAYS WITH U
48. REQUEST 4
Liam who walks in front of Keila then takes Keila towards the company's underground parking lot that Keila rarely visits because Keila does not have a private vehicle. Liam then walks towards a car that Keila recognizes: a black pajero.
“This??” keila asked in surprise while confirming the number plate of the black Pajero she saw at this time: R 4 FA. Why didn't I realize from the start when I saw this license plate? Keila who now knows about the identity of Andra which is none other than Rafandra finally understood the reason for Andra's car license plate instead of the letters that make up Andra but the letters that make up Rafa. It seems that I was really lacking attention, even though I was working as an editor.
Liam smilingly looked at the surprised expression on Keila's face. “True, this is the Director's car. Then that one there it. .”
Keila looked in wonder at the direction Liam pointed at, right beside the black Pajero. The Lamborgini sports car is parked right next to the Black Pajero. “Why with that car? Don't-don't. .”
“Ya.” Liam smiled a little. “It also belongs to Director.”
Keila's mouth gaping to see a luxury class car parked next to a black pajero apparently belongs to Andra as well. How many secrets did Andra hide from me? Why don't I know if I'm currently dating a chaebol?
“. . . Please go inside, Miss Keila.”
Keila sees Liam suddenly standing next to her and opens the door for her just as Andra has always done for her. Still shocked, Keila then got into the car while thanking Liam.
After closing the door on Keila's side, Liam then sat down on the driver's side and started driving Andra's black pajero towards the apartment where Keila and Andra lived. Keila who saw Liam did not ask about his residence at all and drove smoothly then opened her mouth to confirm the conjecture in her mind at this moment.
“M-maybe you know where I live, Liam??”
Still looking at the street ahead, Liam replied with a warm smile on his lips. “Yes, I know, Miss. Everything about the Director, I know. I take care of the apartment myself, Miss Keila.”
Could it? Not wanting to just make a guess in his mind, Keila opened her mouth and asked Liam again. “M-maybe you also know if I was in a relationship with Andra before today's incident?”
Liam nodded his head. “I also know, Miss.”
So this is the intent of his speech at that time, “Meet with different status.” From the beginning he knew that I was his boss's lover. Damnit. This is really shitty. Andra really makes me look like a joke. Keila cursed annoyed at feeling really like being a joke by Andra – her lover. Keila felt really like she was being played with because only she knew nothing at the moment. The annoyance that had disappeared then returned to Keila, but Keila did not want to vent her regret to the wrong person. With all her might Keila held back her sense of regret. “How much do you know, Liam?”
Liam should have noticed Keila's tone of voice that sounded annoyed. But strangely Liam still put on his warm smile while giving an answer to Keila. “I know a lot about the Director because I have been following the Director since college. It's just. .”
“What's it all?” ask Keila quickly.
“Only can I not tell Miss Keila so many things right now like the reason why the Director did not tell her true identity to Miss, like the reason the Director has been silent behind the status of a secret fan and always sends a bouquet of white roses to Miss. For the answer to that question, please Miss ask herself to Director.” Liam still maintained a warm smile on his face. “I have no right to answer it even though I know the reason the Director did it.”
“You are absolutely loyal to Andra,” comments Keila who praised at once complained for not getting the answer she wanted. Keila knew it was useless to ask Liam, who was only an assistant from Andra. But Keila thought she might get a little information from Liam that might slip away somehow. Keila then realized something important. “Wait!! Then the reason you called me Miss is because you know my relationship with Andra?”
Liam chuckled when he heard Keila's question. “New phone noticed??”
Keila glanced sharply at Liam. “Kukira initially you did it to all the female employees in the company. I just remembered when you got acquainted with my three colleagues, you called their names directly but not to me.”
Liam laughed again. “I do that because I know Miss is Director's lover.”
“Sial!” yup, Keila shrank her voice. “I should have realized this a long time ago. I'm really the one who lacks attention.”
“Is there anything strange with me?” asked Keila who then looked sharply at Liam quickly.
“Hahahahah. .” Liam's laughter finally broke out after trying to hold him back earlier. Liam then glanced slightly at Keila before finally returning to focus on looking at the street in front of him.
“Why laugh, Liam?” Keila asked Liam again with a narrowed gaze a sign of his curiosity mixed with probing.
“Nona Personality is really a personality that matches the Director. How well explained it. .” Liam was silent for a moment trying to describe Andra who had been known. “The director is a person who does not talk much especially with people he does not know. It took me two years just to hear the Director speak at length to me. It is also because of our urgent situation. The Director is also not a smiley person like me, so most girls who are fascinated by the Director will immediately step back once they know the Director. Bottom line. . . Director is a difficult person close to others.”
“Ah really?” keila asked in disbelief. “Kukira Andra was originally a person who was a little shameless. She always follows me wherever I go, calling me her lover even when I try so hard to refuse her and just come to me just to ask for food.”
Liam laughed again. “Director really became someone else when together with Miss and I love the changes that happened to Director.”
The car Liam was driving stopped and Keila looked at her apartment building which was already in front of her eyes. Ah it has arrived apparently. Keila was completely unaware that the car she was driving had reached her destination. The conversation about Andra really made Keila's attention sidetracked to the point of not realizing that time had gone by so quickly.
“. . . We're here, Miss.”
“Yes, I saw it, Liam.” Keila took off her seatbelt and was about to open the car door beside her. “Thank you for driving me home, Liam.”
“Can I ask Miss something instead?”
Liam's words stopped Keila's intention to get out of the car. Liam's words reminded him of Andra who always asked for something behind his good deeds to him. Whatisthis? He did the same habit with Andra: asking for something in return for their good deeds. Is it because they have been together for a long time? Keila sighed for a moment before replying to Liam's question. “Alright, I will grant it because you have brought me home, Liam. Importantly it is not a strange and unreasonable request.”
Liam smiled at the warning from Keila that was addressed to him. “Of course this is not a strange and unreasonable request, Miss.”
“Then what? What do you want to ask me, Liam?”
“I know Miss is angry with the Director's actions. I also know Miss also feels like she was being played by the Director. If I were in Miss's position, I would feel the same way. But. . Can you just once Miss listen to the Director's explanation later? All the actions of the Director have a reason and one more thing, everything the Director did because of my words. So. . . I also have a share in the actions of the Director to Miss.”
Keila sighed again after listening to the long words from Liam who this time spoke seriously and without a smile on his lips like before. Keila knew this time Liam was really serious about his words.
“Only that?” ask Keila.
“Ya, that's it.”
“Then be well. I'll listen at least once to Andra's explanation. But. .. If this time Andra still hid everything from me, I would be really mad at her.” Keila gave Liam a warning.
“I understand. Thank you for understanding Miss.”
After that Keila got out of the car and Liam said goodbye to Keila to go home.
