Married Contract With You, My Perfect Husband Chapter 181

"The doctor told me that you have a post-traumatic syndrome. Where it's can be interpreted as this incident has not only happened once but has happened before. Is it true?" asked hoped that the doctor's guess was wrong.
Arthur looked so curious. While Cleo felt her heart beat faster.
She lowered her facial expression to the highest level of gloom. Harry managed to read her expression so well. He then added.
"Don't tell me if you can't tell. But tell me if you want to appreciate my efforts to help you. I wouldn't have been able to dig into this information any further if you didn't tell me directly."
Cleo was taken aback by those words. It was grasped that if Cleo didn't tell him, Harry would try to force her to tell even though she didn't want to. Cleo looked at him half annoyed and helpless because it was indeed the man who had helped her.
Then now he was asking her to repay his services, even if only to the extent of a past story that Cleo didn't want to remember.
Arthur heard Harry's words in amazement. He felt that right now wasn't the situation for Harry to be able to force his will and better provide the consolation that she deserved.
Harry instead just dug into other people's past information at will and confidently said that he would be happier if his wife would tell him directly. So that he didn't have to investigate anything?
Started to break the concentration between being stunned and amazed by the way his coercion sounds logical and difficult to argue with. Arthur could see Cleo seemed uncomfortable with the question but didn't try to refuse to explain something.
Harry then glanced at Arthur briefly, after looking back at Cleo.
"Do you want us to talk just the two of us??" Harry sent Arthur away subtly. Arthur got the sneer immediately looked at him sarcastically and knew his position.

Arthur then offered himself to back away slowly.
"I can go if you feel bothered."
Cleo shook her head slowly. Felt that it was not a story that needed to make other people felt uncomfortable and burdened if they heard the story.
Harry then drew closer to hear more of Cleo's story.
The two of them were both unconsciously holding each other's hands. Then because she felt a piercing stare from everyone, Cleo looked to the other side to start telling a story.
"Do you remember my friend whom I told you that she liked someone and she didn't like me because the person she liked actually liked me?" Cleo finally getting up the courage to look Harry in the eye.
Harry moved his head slightly to remember. He then nodded slightly.
"Yes. And then?" he tried to be patient.
"That woman also once ordered someone to do something inappropriate to me. Ordered her friend who is a boy to try to seduce me. I was almost harmed by her that time when I was locked in my classroom alone with her lecherous friend, "
Harry and Arthur to be listening very seriously.
"I honestly can almost forget about it now. But the fact that sometimes memories can suddenly appear due to a trigger, of course, I can't avoid it. So that.."
"So, today's incident left you with acute trauma and all of your memories of when it finally collided. You ended up getting nervous and shivering so violently that you even fainted. Is that it?" Harry completed so accurately.
Cleo couldn't do anything else but agree with a nod.
Arthur who heard the explanation was dumbfounded. Even kept staring at the two couples alternately several times with a look that was hard to believe. He then said.
"Are you kidding?" Arthur still didn't believe it.

He mumbled his doubts again.
"How could a schoolgirl do such a crazy thing? Are you really serious right now?" Arthur asked in all his amazement.
Could a student do that? What era were they in?
But seeing Cleo's serious expression when she was staring at him and Harry who didn't seem to change his expression at all, made Arthur understand quickly that it wasn't a joke.
Arthur slapped his forehead in surrender to the pitiful state.
Cleo then recounted the problem.
"That's why I get so scared when someone touches me with their wild intentions. That villain also obviously scared me a lot. And my best friend…"
Cleo was reluctant to continue her words.
Harry was getting more and more interested.
"What did she do to you? She didn't have the heart to…"
Cleo immediately cut Harry's words off.
"Of course not! Because his actions were immediately known by our teacher who was doing routine pickets throughout the class when the lesson was over. The man was later suspended for his actions. I was lucky that he didn't go too far to me. However.."
Harry repeated her last words, "However...?"
"However as you can see, I am weak to the distractions that ravaged my mind that led to that incident. I'm really grateful that you came."
Harry also seemed to want to show that Cleo was a significant person to him so he tried to reprimand her.
"Wherever you are and whatever the situation, I will definitely come to pick you up. You don't need to thank me. But in exchange can I ask for something?" asked Harry with a deep and very serious expression on his face.
Cleo felt a little nervous when she looked into those eyes that seemed to strip her.
Stared with warmth even his ability to do anything for the person he was staring at. Until the thought of the man being so hurt when her heart was hurt flashed through her mind again.
Cleo then recalled Harry's words which she only remembered again when she was feeling much better.
'Don't be sad. Because when you cry and grieve, my heart will feel the same.'
Cleo repeatedly wondered what his words meant.
Knew clearly if it was not just words. But it also had a deep meaning that can make anyone who heard it can be touched.
Cleo felt her heart skip a beat when she heard Harry's request.
"Let me hug you because this is proof of my gratitude that you can survive from all of the dangers and misfortunes. I can't hold it in anymore. Can I give you my warm hug?" said Harry which was either poetic or not.
Cleo felt her heart swell and turn red as Harry stared at her deeper and pleaded desperately.
Those eyes seemed to only be focused on her and just her.
Harry must have hugged Cleo long ago and even for a long time. But it was a form of first aid to provide protection and peace of mind for someone who had just experienced a bad incident.
This hug will certainly be a different hug for them. Because Harry obviously couldn't just hug her if she didn't want to either. Harry waited patiently for her answer.
But Cleo couldn't possibly refuse the request because she was quite touched by all of Harry's superhero actions today. Arthur this time really felt like a coward behind them and decided to go out quietly without the two of them knowing.
