Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

The night finally came.

And Harry and Cleo have been preparing to welcome their exclusive dinner. Wearing a knee-length sleeveless dress that showed off her simple yet cute curves.

Harry equalizes Cleo\'s appearance with his matching clothes from his grandmother. Stared at their appearance with a strange look. Harry asked Cleo to immediately go downstairs and leave with him.

Cleo, who was curious, whispered beside Harry\'s ear.

"When did Mrs. Sofia prepare all this?" asked Cleo with great curiosity. Because in this afternoon grandmother didn\'t say anything to her and just made small talk. But it turned out that she had all this ready for her?

Harry answers her.

"In the morning. When I went out to buy breakfast, "

Cleo nodded understandingly.

Arrived at one of the classic French-style Michelin restaurants which were famous for their various pasta and steaks served together with delicious sauces sprinkled with caviar in the Orchard area. Their slightly striking appearance attracted the attention of those around them.

Got the best service and special service. The restaurant managed to pamper Cleo with its calm atmosphere and its beautiful dishes with delicious flavors. 

The music classic accompanied them very serenely. And all of that was on Sofia\'s orders

The two of them enjoyed their dinner with great joy. Until it was time for the dance music to play and their two guests were specially invited to come to the front to dance together.

Cleo seemed surprised at the request.

"What? They ask us to dance?" asked Cleo in a very surprised manner. Because that was a ridiculous request.

"I can\'t dance! Do you want me to humiliate you in public?" Cleo persuaded, refused to dance, and embarrassing herself.

Harry gave her a sedative.

"It is okay. Grandma must be doing this on purpose for us. So, what if later she asks about the results to the restaurant manager? Do you want to take responsibility if she starts to get suspicious?"

"But..."

"Calm down and just follow my cue. I will guide you,"

Cleo finally agreed to Harry\'s suggestion. Accepted his helping hand and took a step. Their dance moments were recorded and immortalized by restaurant staff.

Until some guests started following them forward to dance with their partners. Harry\'s complaint made Cleo feel uncomfortable.

"You\'ve already stepped on my foot twice!" said Harry in pain. Cleo replied quickly.

"I told you I can\'t dance!"

"But this is too bad! Didn\'t I tell you to follow my rhythm? Don\'t get too hung up on my footsteps. Just follow my gestures and walk with confidence. Is that all was difficult?"

Cleo endured the pressure not to scream for help. 

"It\'s hard for me because I\'ve never tried it. Can\'t you understand it?" Cleo said, annoyed and frustrated.

Because from the start she had said that she was bad at dancing. But Harry continued to insist. Then felt the consequences for himself.

"Not. Because for me, at this time you have including tried it. And it\'s not like you haven\'t tried at all."

Cleo sighed.

"Stop teasing me and help me deal with this pinching situation. Is the song still going to belong?" asked Cleo. Still trying to align her steps.

Harry deliberately teases Cleo.

"Maybe. Coz, I think they will replay it. So, prepare your strength!"

Cleo immediately put on a panicked face.

"What?"

Rounded her eyes and felt her spine trembled from being too tense. The music then stopped not long after. Cleo stares straight at Harry.

"You tricked me?!" exclaimed Cleo, dipping.

Harry had invited Cleo to return to their table. 

"Come back now. Or you want to do one more round!" Harry said.

Cleo hurriedly dragged her feet to follow Harry

Passed several people to smile politely and received applause from them. Both of them returned to sit quietly in their eating position earlier.

Cleo was whispering to Harry after a few minutes later.

"What did the MC say to us?" Cleo asked, glancing at a man who had hosted the program.

Cleo smiled thinly.

"He was expressing his admiration for all the cooperative guests and our harmony. As you know, in other people\'s eyes we are a couple. So he will certainly give us various compliments to please us." 

Cleo finally nodded in understanding.

Resumed their mealtimes with desserts. Cleo ignored several pairs of eyes that were already staring at her enviously because they thought Harry was the one who prepared the whole special event for her.

Laughed at their envious glances inwardly. Cleo tried to show her elegant attitude until the end of the event. The two of them then left the restaurant. And went back to the hotel.

Cleo decided to take a shower first. And let Harry check some of his documents.

Completed all her needs to clean herself. Cleo then told Harry to take turns to clean himself.

Finished drying her hair while Harry was still in the bathroom. A very drowsy feeling had attacked Cleo and forced her to quickly lie down.

Cleo\'s eyes then closed.

Harry immediately took a long breath when he just came out and found Cleo\'s unawareness. 

Had been warned to be careful and reveal his normalcy as a male that he could prove right away.

Cleo instead can fall asleep without giving strict protection to herself and worry.

Harry lifted Cleo\'s blanket. Staring at the sleeping woman\'s face. Harry then carried her up onto the king-sized bed. And let Cleo sleep on one side of the bed.

Harry then blanket her.

Gazed calmly. Then resumed work that had been delayed. Harry then sank back into his chores which were still piling up because of delaying his return.

Harry also seemed to occasionally send messages to Dirga to ask a few things and asked for a report.

Dirga who was in a dilemma just kept on yawning. Staring at his laptop screen with sad eyes because he already had a lot of work done at once in a very short time.

Dirga then considered for a moment. 

Should he ask for a raise later?!

Until the time has pointed at one o\'clock in the morning. Harry finally finished work and went to sleep.

The next morning, a commotion broke out.

Sunlight entered their room and shone two couples who were still fast asleep. 

A hand moved sideways in search of space. Haven\'t opened her eyes and just groped. That hand touched something foreign. And make her forehead spontaneously creased.

Realizing that there were other residents by her side, Cleo felt that something was wrong. 

Quickly opened her eyes and looked to the side with large, round eyes. Cleo spontaneously shouted.

"Aakkhhh!!! What are you doing? Why am I on your bed?"

Almost screamed that it was her bed. Cleo immediately realized that she was in Harry\'s bed.

But, since when and how??

Harry, who was still asleep, woke up automatically when he heard Cleo\'s scream. 

Stretched his body for a moment to relieve soreness.

"Are you awake?" Harry asked without responding to Cleo\'s panic.

Cleo had asked her serious question again.

"You have not answered my question! What are you doing to me! And why can I be in your bed? Didn\'t I sleep on the sofa last night? But, why can I move?" Cleo asked, a little blindly.

Cleo then thought for a moment.

"You brought me at here?" She asked doubtfully.

Harry did not reply immediately. Only rubbed a little of his eyes that were still has not adapted to the environment.

"I saw you seem uncomfortable while you sleeping on the sofa. So, because I see this bed is quite spacious and comfortable for the two of us. There is nothing wrong with us sharing. You don\'t need to worry because I didn\'t do anything," explained Harry, explaining the truth.

Cleo immediately sighed with relief.

But just now she let out one long breath. Harry had returned to showing his joke.

"Or, do you expect us to do something more?"

Harry looking at Cleo meaningfully. Cleo immediately shuddered. Hurriedly got up from the bed and stood alert Cleo crossing her arms in front.

"Is this your true nature?"

Cleo suspected the authenticity of Harry\'s cold attitude all this time. And she began to feel indirectly being mocked.

Harry instead looked at Cleo lazily. Got up to wash his face. Harry ignored Cleo\'s protests completely.

Cleo\'s blood flow increase.

"Hey! You\'re ignoring me now?!" asked Cleo.

Annoyed and didn\'t understand why Harry\'s mood fluctuated so often. Harry diverted Cleo\'s attention to something else.

"Get ready immediately. Because after this, we will depart by noon plane. Then, don\'t blame me if I leave you!"

Cleo shuddered.

Took clothes and immediately shower. Changed her clothes and dressed up a little in no time. They then had breakfast in the hotel cafeteria had before leaving for the airport.

Delivered by a special driver provided by the hotel. The two of them headed to the airport, boarded the plane again to fly to their home country. The two of them arrived at the International arrivals airport at 2 pm.
