Unexpected Love: One Night With Mr CEO

Ever since she first came to Australia, Claire had asked Aaron about it. But the man always put it off because she was busy taking care of all the things about Claire\'s return to the Smith family.

"I almost forgot about that. Lucky for you to say so," Aaron replied.

"Next week, honey. I promise I\'ll take you there, OK?" he added.

"You have to promise me, Uncle," said Claire.

Hearing that, Aaron smiled, "I promise you," he said again while nodding his head.

"Thank you, Uncle," replied Claire.

"It\'s late, you should sleep," Aaron said to his nephew again.

"That\'s right, honey. You better get some rest, you must be very tired after shopping all day," Grandma chimed in.

Claire then approached her son who was still busy with the book in his hand.

"Honey..." she said touching the boy\'s arm.

"If you\'re sleepy, you can go to bed now, Mom. I\'m not sleepy yet, I want to finish this book first," Dave replied as if he knew what his mother was going to say. Although the boy seemed busy and indifferent to his surroundings, to be honest, he heard all their conversations.

Claire took a deep breath.

"Leave it alone, honey. I\'ll take care of it, leave Dave to me. I\'ll take care of him, go to sleep," said Grandma to the woman.

"That\'s right, Mom. Don\'t worry about me."

"Hmm, fine. Then I\'d like to go back to my room, don\'t stay up too late, honey. That\'s not good," Claire said then kissed her son\'s forehead.

Dave just nodded in agreement.

At 02.00 in the morning, to be precise in an apartment located on the border of City J, a black car entered the basement. Followed by a woman and a man out of there. They were Byanca and Edward.

The woman walked first, leaving Edward behind. The expression on her face was very disheveled, her expression truly unsightly. Anyone who saw her could tell that she was in a very bad mood.

"Honey, wait for me," Edward shouted, following the woman.

Entering the elevator, they immediately headed to Edward\'s apartment.

Byanca slams her bag on the sofa, "Edward, what does all this mean? You told me that you wanted to take my revenge on Devan and his future wife, but till now you haven\'t done anything to them. Did you lie to me?" Byanca turned to face Edward.

"Calm yourself, honey. Don\'t be angry like this," Edward replied, trying to calm her down.

"How can I calm down when Claire is back in Australia? It\'s all because of you, Edward. You wasted too much time, now what? We lost that damn woman," said Byanca cursing and blaming Edward.

"If I hadn\'t come with you to the Club today, I probably wouldn\'t have known about this," She added. Indeed, when she was at the Club earlier, she overheard some people talking. They said that they accidentally met the family who was going viral right now at the airport. Some of them also mentioned the names of Claire Smith and Devan Atmadja.

And it managed to make Byanca feel annoyed. Even though they had just arrived at that place, and immediately went home.

"It\'s all because of you, Edward. None of this would have happened if you hadn\'t kept me at bay," Byanca said again, cursing the blame at the man.

"Okay, okay, I\'m sorry, honey. Now calm down. If Claire is in Australia, it doesn\'t mean we can\'t do anything to her. Don\'t worry, have you forgotten where I came from? I could ask my dad for help, honey. Don\'t worry, he will help me," Edward said.

"I will not let the wedding happen, and I will avenge you, dear," he added.

"Is that true? You have to promise me, Edward."

"Yes, Dear. I promise I will do anything to you, "Edward replied then hugged Byanca, stroking her back trying to calm her down.

"If you lie to me, don\'t ever expect to see me again," Byanca replied and let go of the man\'s embrace.

Edward just nodded slowly, "Ok, now calm down, honey."

Hearing that, Byanca smiled then looked into Edward\'s eyes, "You didn\'t forget about tomorrow\'s plans, did you?"

Edward took a deep breath, "Are you sure about your decision? I can take responsibility, honey. After all, it\'s my child, not Devan\'s," said Edward, trying to persuade the woman for the umpteenth time.

Byanca shook her head, "I\'m sure. I want to eliminate everything that could potentially get in the way of my plans," Byanca said, completely unconcerned about Edward\'s feelings.

"You promised to accompany me, have you changed your mind?"

"No, I just… ah never mind. I\'m tired, I want to rest first," Edward said then walked away from Byanca, towards the bedroom.

"Tomorrow, I will accompany you," he added again before disappearing behind the door.

Seeing the man\'s attitude, Byanca frowned. \'What a weirdo,\' she thought and threw herself on the sofa.

Claire woke up earlier than usual, after taking a shower and tidying up her room. She went to the kitchen on the first floor.

"Good morning, madam," said the butler when she saw the woman.

"Do you need anything?" she asked again. It was the first time she had seen her awake at this time.

"I want to see what menu chef will cook today," said Claire.

The butler nodded, "Please have a look, Miss," she said while giving the menu list that the chef would cook today.

"We will have guests. I recommend adding some special menus, also making some delicious desserts and snacks. Ah, don\'t forget to tell the chef to cook some Indonesian specialties," said Claire.

"Okay, madam. Any more?" asked the butler.

"Clean the guest room. Replace all sheets with new ones, use air fresheners that are more gentle and soothing, as well as the living room, "said Claire.

"Okay, madam. I will do according to your orders," said the butler.

"Ah yes, I almost forgot. Get ready, I want you to accompany me to the flower shop," said Claire again.

"Okay, madam."

"Erm," said Claire and then left the middle-aged woman.. She returned to her room.
