Married Contract With You, My Perfect Husband Chapter 56
Advertisement
Her experience about working in a company can be said to be very little. Due to the limitations of working hours that were too long and the income was less than the working hours that were too scheduled.
Cleo preferred to do part-time jobs that can make more money. Instead of having to wrestle too long with a job that could took up most of her time but couldn't produce anything that would be more profitable for her.
So that Cleo almost never glanced at that job as her main source of livelihood to support all her needs and also pay off her debts so far.
After all, what kind of office job did Cleo hoped she can get from a girl who was still 17 years old who had no work experience at all and also a girl who did not even complete her education because she was hindered by finance?
Yes. Cleo only succeeded in completing her education until mid-high school because her uncle became addicted to gambling and continued to waste his money to play at the gambling table.
So that since that day, Cleo's main focus was to find as much work as she can and get as much money as she can to fulfill all her daily needs.
@w.e.b.n.o.v.e.l
And Dirga seemed to understand Cleo's predicament very well, who was definitely not familiar. So that Dirga offered to help.
"You can ask me anything you do not understand," Dirga said, giving an easy answer.
Cleo didn't immediately agreed to it.
"But I don't want to bother you so much. I already know how much you do. So how can I add more work to you by asking your help?" Cleo said, feeling uncomfortable.
Dirga immediately replied, "Of course it will not be a bother, miss. Because it is my job to provide direction. "
"Is it true?" Cleo asked with an anxious tone.
Dirga looked at her emotionally. Then smiled dryly.
"Thank you Miss. You already want to take better care of me than 'that person'. But then again. Since this is already my responsibility, you don't have to worry. Ask whatever you want to ask. And whatever things you don't understand. I will definitely answer as correctly as possible as long as I understand it, " Dirga replied resignedly accepting the fate that had been outlined for him.

Cleo couldn't help smiling and finally nodded in understanding.
"Okay thank you. In that case, I will as much as possible ask you a little. Isn't it the era of technology now? So if I'm having trouble understanding things that I can't understand, don't I just have to search on the internet for them. And then if at that time I still don't understand, I can just come looking for you? " Cleo exclaimed, trying to get excited while pointing at the small laptop that Dirga gave her to finish all the reports he had been giving so far.
Dirga responded calmly.
"Do it if that's what you want," Dirga replied politely while slightly lowering his head.
After that, Cleo gave Dirga permission to return to his place. And started her work again to learn all the ins and outs of the reports that were necessary for Cleo to analyze.
Cleo looked at all the reports with eyes that were filled with water. Hadn't started reading it deeper yet, Cleo's stomach felt like it's been shaking and her head was spinning. So how can Cleo continue this.
Oh, God! What kind of test is this ?! I know you always listen to the prayers of your people very well. But do you need to just carry out random prayers so quickly and so much like this?
Measureable, Achievable, Resources, Critical Path? What kind of terms were all that?
Did they use human language? Or was Cleo's world different from the world of those who wrote this report?
Hah! Cleo shook her head as a sign of her inability to continue her exemplary employee mission. It seemed like she'd better step back and burn this whole sickening report.
Wish these reports weren't very important reports. Cleo must have done that since earlier. But, wasn't there a language that was more folk and more everyday in which she can understand and respond more quickly?
Lazily Cleo turned on her internet screen to start searching. One word at a time. And sentence by sentence she was looking for all the meanings contained therein. Then took notes in a book until she made a definition and summary of what she analyzed.
Continously. Until so many times that her eyes might have jumped out, if only she hadn't blinked and adjusted her patterns gaze to study it.

Cleo tried so hard to keep focused on what she was doing. Cleo didn't notice someone's eyes that had been staring at her since she had returned to his room.
Yes, Harry looked at Cleo's seriousness with a quite serious face too. Not because he was not happy to see Cleo's seriousness which he thought was quite excessive. But rather, he was quite amazed by Cleo's expression that were so serious and attractive enough for him to look at.
Harry pondered at what he was thinking. He then frowned.
'She's attractive in his eyes?'
Harry doubted this thought.

Until the break time came again, Cleo had a great guest for her.
Yes. Mrs. Sofia came to Harry's office and met her to congratulate her. She also said that she would give her enthusiasm and support for Cleo as long as Cleo needed it.
It really made Cleo feel moved and could not say any more.
"Congratulations on your first day working at the office, my dearest daughter-in-law!" Mrs. Sofia exclaimed, congratulating Cleo with her always big and distinctive enthusiasm.
Cleo smiled happily. then stiffened at Mrs. Sofia.
Two weeks have passed since Cleo went to Harry's office. And Mrs. Sofia, who knew about it from the first day she came to the office, welcomed her over the phone.
So, to give more encouragement to the granddaughter-in-law that she cared about the most - because Cleo was Sofia's only granddaughter-in-law for the time being -, Madame Sofia deliberately came without notification to surprise her.
So who would have thought, that grandmother's decision made Cleo even more uncomfortable.
Cleo had promised Harry to keep a distance from his grandmother. But if Mrs. Sofia suddenly came here without warning or any prior plans. Wouldn't it be difficult for Cleo to distance herself from all the patterns of kindness that Mrs. Sofia had given her like her previous promise?
Today, Madame Sofia looked very different from the way she used to be Cleo. If some time ago the woman looked like any other rich grandmother. Now, Cleo can see the dignity that this woman exuded when she was accompanied by Harry's subordinate.
But with her friendly smile still the same, Mrs. Sofia looked at Cleo gently.
"How is your work? Is everything fun? " Sofia asked, warming Cleo's heart, which had almost exploded because she could not hold back all her headaches in accepting this unsuitable job for her.
Cleo looked at Sofia with a look full of emotion. She wanted to hug her in one warm hug.
"Grandmother! Indeed, only you are the best to me! " Cleo said affectionately without realizing what she was saying.
Sofia gave her an incredulous look.
"Did something bad happen to you here?" Sofia asked, worried.
She looked at Cleo with enough attention.
"Why do you say I'm only the best to you? Didn't Harry treat you well after you got married and worked together in the office? " Sofia asked again, anxiously.
Sofia herself knew that Cleo would probably have a lot of difficulty adapting to her new environment.
After successfully marrying his grandson. Cleo clearly needed a lot to get used to all the daily patterns of their family and the people around her husband. Then what obstacles occurred during the time she began to adapt herself to the scope of Theodore family?
Or, was the office work too much for her? So, because of that this granddaughter-in-law looked so frustrated and suffering?
Sofia repeatedly made a worried face to Cleo.
And Cleo, who certainly didn't mean to be too serious with her words, immediately put on a smile full of kindness then reasoned quickly.
Cleo shows a row of neat teeth.
"Grandmother! That's not what I mean, Grandma. I just want to lift you up to the highest sky. Hasn't Grandma always been nice to me? If it weren't for grandmother who blessed our relationship, how could Harry and I be married now? So don't listen to my messy words too much," Cleo said, lying.
Again and again!
Why was Cleo always so fluent in lying? Didn't she know what sin awaits her?
Cleo forced a smile.
"Did you sleep well last night?" Cleo asked, trying to change the subject.
"Yes, grandma slept well. Did you sleep well last night too? " Sofia asked following the flow.
