JORDAN
Chapter 13

“Leon!”

“Kakak!”

Leon who was sitting relaxed in the back gazebo with a book he read, looked up quickly when he heard the voice of the brother who had not seen this one week. Soon, Leon enters into Lionara's arms as the girl stretches out her arms to welcome Leon.

“I miss you,”

“Miss you too, baby” Lionara dyed Leon's head crest

“Why not say today go home?” Leon let go of his embrace and escorted Lionara sitting on the sofa.

“Surprise dong,” kekeh Lionara while scrambling gaunt fine hair Leon.

“Iih, not funny” Leon throbbing

Lionara laughs. Feeling funny every time Leon pursed his lips. Leon always managed to make his mood better and make him smile—smiles that may very rarely be shown in front of others.

“Oya, how's your new school? Do you like?”

Leon nodded enthusiastically “Of course. The school is big and luxurious. His size was even eleven twelve with Hogwarts. Moreover, there the learning facilities are very complete and the quality of the teachers is also not kidding. And again the children who attended school there on average from the upper class, Kak. Like the children of famous celebrities and business people whose faces often appear on tv.” Leon explained with eyes sparkling in admiration.

Lionara smiled when she saw her sister who liked her new school so much. Well, for the size of the elite school so, is not a new thing for Lionara—karna he also never felt the luxury facilities, long before his parents were gone. But not for Leon. A new lifetime this time the sister can taste the luxury.

Lionara stroked and re-justified Leon's hair that he randomized earlier, “Thank God you like it. Brother happy to hear it”

“This is all thanks to the sister who married the crazy rich sister-in-law. Otherwise, maybe I would never have set foot in such a school.” Leon scowled.

“Really? That means you've started to like your sister-in-law?”

“I learned to love it because big brother” Leon stared fixed bead brother.

“Oh yes? Why that?”

“I'm glad brother married to brother Jordan. At least I won't see my brother in trouble and roodi work again to meet my needs and school fees. It's been enough brother's suffered all along because of me. I want to see brother happy,” raucous, Leon turned his face to the side— trying to hold back his tears

which will fall.

Lionara looked at his brother. Didn't expect his Leon would think so. Slowly, Lionara cupped Leon's face and gently wiped the clear fur in the corner of his little sister's eyes.

“Listen, brother never felt pain because of you. Brother is very concerned about Leon and Leon's family is the only one that you have. Because it's brother willing to do anything to make Leon's brother happy. Never assume that. Brother doesn't like it. Leon's not a burden for brother, okay?”

Leon nodded. “Then from now on sister should also be happy.”

Lionara's eyes glazed over to see the brother's hopeful eyes. Can't stand it, he clenched tightly to Leon and then kissed the peak

“Because Leon is happy.”

****

Lionara: Do you still work at the club?

Camila: Of course. You think only by graduating high school can I work what else? Oya, you haven't contacted me in a long time. I'm afraid you forgot about me after marrying that rich man. How are you, Li?

Lionara : Good. I just got back from Barcelona. My in-laws house.

Camila: Wow, really? Dong asik. Then what's your in-laws' attitude? Is he nice to you?

Lionara: It seems not.

Camila : Why?

Lionara: Jordan and his father have a bad relationship. Really bad.

Camila: Yes, if that story I've heard a little. I thought the news was just a hoax.

Lionara: That's right. Even Jordan deliberately invited me there to ruin the engagement his father had designed.

Camila: Hell! So the gossip on the news yesterday was true?!

Lionara : Hm. Jordan's father doesn't like commoners like me. He was furious and beat up Jordan.

Camila: Oh my God, Li. I didn't think such an event would happen. Then how next?

Lionara: Do you want to expect a story? Yes, after putting his father to shame, Jordan took me home.

Camila: I didn't expect Jordan to embarrass his own family. And don't tell me she insists on marrying you is also one of her plans—besides wanting a child from you?!

Lionara: The truth is that.

Camila : Oh, ****! You're in big trouble, Li! Jordan really used you to achieve his goals.

Lionara: I know.

Camila: What? You know that already?! This can't be allowed, Li. I suggest you get away from him before something worse happens.

Lionara: Ck, don't be silly. I'm married to him. You think I can go that easy?

Camila: Take it easy. I'll help you escape. The three of us leave town.

Lionara: Relax, Cal. I can face all of this. If it was only reproached and humiliated again, it would have been very ordinary for me. I'm not going anywhere. I have to return the favor to Jordan who has helped me a lot. At least, thanks to marrying her Leon gets a better life. Leon happily—that's enough for me.

Camila: But I can't bear to see you have to suffer constantly, Li. You deserve to be happy too.

Camila: Okay, if that's what you want. Oya, are you still following the news of the El?

Lionara : El?

Camilla : Hm. He's back in town, Li!

Lionara : Then?

Camila: Hehe, It's okay. Just remind you to be more careful with how you feel when you see each other later.

El back?

Lionara did not continue the chat. He put his phone with mixed feelings on the table. He lifted his face and found Jordan staring at him. The man had just finished his bath with a towel in his hand that was used to dry his wet hair.

“What's up? Why is your face so moody?” Jordan asked in wonder.

“Nothing.” Lionara lie and then sit leaning on the headboard “can I work again?”

“That question again,” decih Jordan. His legs were headed for the bed, while the towel had been thrown on the sofa. He also sat down beside Lionara.

“Why do you want to work so hard? Is everything I have provided not enough for you?”

“I just feel bored sitting still at home without doing anything,”

“You can go shopping or take Leon for a walk out, maybe.”

“I don't like shopping. While Leon's time is up all day with his school activities.”

“Alright, what work can you do?”

“Cleaning service.”

“Only that?” Jordan raised an eyebrow.

Lionara nodded “I'm just a graduate of JHS.”

“Can't.” Jordan refused firmly. “What people say if they know my wife works as cleaning service.”

“Isn't our wedding a secret?”

Jordan rolled a lazy eyeball “You forgot the hoopla we had last week at that old bangka residence? All media covering us and automatically your face as my wife is also clearly displayed there.”

Lionara. He forgot the fact that Jordan's magnificent engagement event must have been crowded with television stations.

Jordan smiled. “If only to overcome boredom, you do not need to work. Because from tomorrow and the next few days I will keep you busy.”

“Busy?” Lionara.

“I want you to train again with my friend Deliah, for the next few days, she will teach you how to look like a businessman's wives.”

“Why?”

Jordan looked at Lionara with a serious look “Two weeks away Grandpa will be birthday and all the families will come together to celebrate his birthday. I know what my family is like. They held his blood high. Knowing that I married women far below their caste, would have brought you down, and they would have had a loophole to depose me as the future heir to the Christopher family fortune. I don't want that to happen. You must appear as my charming and blessed woman.”

Lionara looked at the old Jordan and suddenly felt sad. He remembered his entire family in the past, the conflict in the Jordan family was almost the same as his family used to be so valuing property. Even willing to drop one with another to get treasures and thrones. The proof, once both parents died, the younger brother of his own father directly manipulated the wealth of both parents, then Lionara and Leon just dumped from home. Remembering that made Lionara's heart ache again.

“Good.” Lionara answered briefly.

Lionara turned her face when she realized her tears were coming out. He immediately lay down and went into the blanket—tasleep on Jordan's back. “We should sleep. Good night.”

Jordan clucking. Jordan was obviously not happy with that, then with one glance he twisted Lionara's body lying facing him— ignored the woman's stifled screeches.

“Jo—“

“It is impolite to turn your back on a sleeping husband.” cut Jordan while attaching their bodies, wrap their hands around the belly of Lionara and have their legs placed on top of Lionara's feet.

“I have trouble moving like this.”

“Body we've been attached. Cannot be released.” An absolute and indisputable statement.

Lionara gnashed his teeth, and it made Jordan anxious then without cueing Lionara's lips deeply to make the woman choke on her own saliva.

“Sleep, or I'll continue to kiss these lips.” Jordan stroked Lionara's lower lip.

Lionara swallow saliva, “Alright, but please slide a little.”

Lionara was still trying to push Jordan's chest but instead of coming off, the hug tightened. Jordan sank Lionara's face into his chest, then his palm began to gently caress Lionara's hair.

“Sshh. If you keep moving you can make Jordan junior down there wake up.” Jordan whispered in his ear.

Hearing that his body automatically stopped shuffling. Jordan was smiling with an amused smile.

“Good, Wifey.”
