Married Contract With You, My Perfect Husband Chapter 44
Advertisement
Cleo glanced at Harry's uncle and aunt at the same time.
They seemed to have gotten used to this small commotion. Meanwhile Christina and Kiky were just being cool and didn't intend to interrupt. It could be said that this commotion had not only happened once or twice. But several times.
Cleo patted het forehead unconsciously.
"I'll take her to the office or not, it's up to me. Do you need to arrange that too?" Harry did say flatly. But his tone got higher.
Annoyed by what Grandma said, Harry got up to immediately say goodbye.
"I am done. We'd better say goodbye," Harry said quickly. Before he made things worse by saying harsh words.
When Harry had walked away, Cleo immediately chased him. After hurrying to say goodbye to all of Harry's family members, Cleo immediately took a quick step to compensate for Harry.
From the corner of her eye, Cleo could see all the members of Harry's family shaking their heads in surrender.
Then, while grumbling to herself, Cleo continued to stare at Harry's back sharply.
"Do you need to be that cold to Grandma?" Cleo finally asked on the sidelines of their journey back home.
Because it was late at night, Harry told the driver to go home first. So that in the end they were now alone in the car with Harry taking the wheel.
For the first five minutes Cleo and Harry were silent. But, because she felt something seemed to be stuck in her mind. Cleo was forced to open a conversation that was bothering her.
Harry glanced at Cleo briefly. Then, refocus himself on driving.
"I don't think I need your comment," Harry said indifferently without turning his head. Making Cleo want to tease him even more.
"But, weren't you being too rude to her?" Cleo asked anxiously again.
Harry responded lazily.
"I told you you don't need to interfere. She is my grandmother. And not your grandmother. Is not it?" Harry replied sarcastically and wouldn't listen.
Cleo looked at him sarcastically.
Harry was not as quiet as she had imagined. If there was anything he didn't like, that man would definitely have expressed his displeasure quite long and sharply!
Cleo looked at him half annoyed.
"I know, I'm not in a position to just comment on your relationship. But don't you feel that you're a little too much for Grandma? She did it because she cared about you! " Cleo raised her voice, didn't want to budge.

Harry ignored her again.
"You know that, but you still make comments?" Harry asked.
Cleo was surprised, "What?"
"You already know, you're in a position that can't just comment on our relationship. But you still comment on our relationship at your heart will?" Harry asked sarcastically and incredulously.
Cleo looked at him in amazement. Was this the true nature of the husband she married? Arrogant and super duper annoying to the god level?? Hoh !! Extraordinary!!
"I'm not commenting on your relationship. But this attitude of yours ...? Am I even your only contract wife so I have no right to comment on it? " Cleo looked at him irritably, "I have a mouth to speak. And you also have ears to hear. If you don't want to hear me, then fine. You don't have to be cynical like that to me! You also have nothing to lose if you talk about this carefully. "
Harry served Cleo lazily.
"I don't know what you are planning. But I warned you not to get too close to grandma! Our marital status will only last for two years. After that, I don't want her to be dependent on you forever, " Harry said, warned.
Cleo agreed with that.
Since before and after she married Harry, Cleo already knew what limits she should do and what not. Grandma Sofia was really nice to het. But that did not make her use the woman's good for her own benefit.
She didn't want to bother anyone about it. And she also didn't want to hurt anyone who was nice to her. Therefore, what Harry said, of course Cleo would not argue with him.
But Harry's next sentence made Cleo realize something very important.
"Don't keep wandering around with my grandmother without my knowledge. For now I might be able to understand. But later, I can't guarantee it. "
Harry's expression which was full of meaning made Cleo frown for a moment.
"Do you already know the truth about your credit card?" Cleo asked, who quickly grasped the true meaning of Harry's warning.
Harry just kept quiet. And Cleo took it as a 'yes' answer. She stared at Harry without blinking. Then get serious enough to continue the questioning.
"Since when?" Cleo asked.
"Not long ago," Harry replied.
Cleo held back her frustration.

"You know that, but you didn't say anything to me afterwards?" Cleo asked in disbelief.
"I told you I just found out," Harry explained once again, "If you want me to withdraw my lawsuit, I've asked Dirga to take care of it."
Cleo breathed a sigh of relief hearing that.
"But regarding my warning about your actions getting out of hand, I will still enforce them. You are not allowed to act as you please, without speech and direction. Can you follow that? " Harry asked emphasized.
Cleo was silent for a moment.
"Even if it has to do with your grandmother?" She asked.
"Yes. Especially if it has to do with her, " Harry said.
Cleo immediately sighed.
"Okay. I admit I have acted wrong. But aren't you stingy even with your own grandmother?" Cleo asked slightly disapprovingly.
Even though Cleo didn't have the right to interfere in this matter. But, wasn't it wrong if she questioned it?
Now it's Harry's turn to hold back his frustration.
"What do you really want to say?" Harry asked unhappily.
"I know you are mad at me because I let your grandmother use a lot of your money arbitrarily without your knowledge. But aren't you too stingy even to your own grandmother?" Cleo asked, asking the questions with her innocent face.
And Harry stared at her helplessly.
"You think I'll be in a lot of trouble just because of the change that Grandma used that day?" Harry asked sarcastically.
Cleo looked at him confusedly.
"That money is nothing compared to all the money I give grandmother every month for shopping. So, how could you assume that I would be so stingy with her? Do you really understand the situation now? What I'm concerned about here is your actions. Action!" Harry explained irritably with his intentions.
During this time he rarely had to give detailed explanations to others. Therefore, when he was given the opportunity to explain something he did not want, feelings of resentment naturally enveloped him.
And, if Cleo still didn't understand this time, Harry better gave up!
Cleo's lips wrinkled at Harry's narrative.
***
Again and again. This man can always made Cleo look stupid in the eyes of the world! Did he think, how could Cleo know how much monthly spending money for a grandmother who wasn't even her own grandmother, if she had just gotten to know them?
Hah! Was Harry just trying to be funny ?!
Cleo decided to ignore all of Harry's sarcastic attitude which of course Cleo knew there was no cure.
"Okay! Okay! I understand. So, our problem is now finished? " Cleo asked ending their pointless argument with the ending she wanted.
Harry did not answer immediately. He was busy thinking about other things.
But then, when Cleo was just about to put het attention from Harry to the other side, Harry suddenly made an unexpected statement.
"Tomorrow, I'll take you to the office. So be ready," Harry said unpredictably calm.
Cleo looked at him confusedly.
Did she just hear wrong?
At dinner together, Harry clearly opposed his grandmother's decision to take her to his office. So, where did the statement come from and reverberate? Was her ear having trouble now ??
"I will ask Dirga to take care of everything. You just have to follow him and don't cause trouble. I'm doing this because of Grandma. So don't think anything nonsense, " Harry added.
Cleo now believed in her hearing.
So Harry really wanted to ask her to go to the office together because Grandma asked him? Then if so why did they have to make such a fuss? And, what kind of nonsense was Harry referring to?
Cleo looked at Harry irritatedly and then resigned.
"Okay. I understand. What else?" Cleo said excitedly.
"Not. That's all, " Harry replied.
Cleo immediately nodded, "Okay." Then cast her gaze out the window.
And they returned to their home in peace without any further conversation.
