Some of them even expressed their admiration for Cleo's charming handsome husband. Until their found out that Cleo was already married and had a husband who was so perfect.
Cleo only chuckled to give her answer and sneaked out before the crowds that charged at her grew even more.
Cleo had grabbed Harry's hand to come with her. Pulled him headed into the parking lot and got into the car in a much quieter state. Cleo could feel her feelings becoming immensely relieved.
While Harry looked at Cleo in astonishment after seen all of Cleo's seemingly exaggerated anxiety.
"What's wrong with you? Did you just get chased by a cat?" Harry asked seriously while looking at Cleo who was catching her breath.
Handed her a bottle of mineral water. Cleo immediately took that drink and drank half of it.
"I may not be being chased by a cat but a group of humans who are like news-seeking cats. How can they not recognize you as Harry Miles and only see you as a handsome man and even idolize you? Are you not quite famous among them?"
Harry immediately laughed at Cleo's ridicule.
"Did you forget, you don't even know me well enough yourself and are forced to just look for me on the internet?"
Cleo certainly understood true that she was less sociable because she was not the type of person who cares about other people's affairs and even followed the news developments that develop around her.
Harry certainly couldn't match it. Cleo quickly asked in confusion.
"But, how did you know I was looking for data about you on the internet? Did I ever tell you that? And do you know what the result was?"
Harry then glanced at her before answering.
"You certainly won't be getting much. Because of the information that I let spread about me, always I restricted it. Not just anyone who can know my face. Until if you search that news over remote areas, you will not find detailed data about me. You will only find some brief information about some things unimportant. I found out it from Reihan,"

Cleo sneered. Harry was turn out so great at keeping his profile secret which must have been plastered everywhere when the man was traveling anywhere. Until even the news reporters will definitely hunt him down to find news for digging up any information about him.
"Em, okay. I see. But, when did Reihan find out that I looked up your history on the internet?" Cleo seemed curious about the news.
Harry had answered casually, telling the driver to start their car.
"I don't know how Reihan found out it. But I quite appreciate your intention to find out as much information as possible about me. I can imagine how troublesome it must have been for you at that time."
Cleo asked another question.
"So, where are we going? ' asked Cleo in surprise and did not understand which way their car was going.
"We're going somewhere for lunch. Aren't you hungry?"
Cleo had nodded.
"We're going somewhere for lunch. Are you hungry?"
Cleo nodded.
Letting Harry take her out to eat anywhere. They then arrived at a sushi restaurant. Ordered some menus and heard Harry say a few more words.
"After this, I want to take you someplace. Eat leisurely and don't be in a hurry."
Cleo kept wondering what Harry was going to do and why it looked so mysterious. But Cleo didn't ask too much. She just agreed to what Harry had to say and became very obedient.
Followed Harry down the cobbled streets and up the incline. After they finished their lunch and arrived at a location. Cleo continued to follow Harry from behind. Began to guess whose funeral they went to.
Cleo finally found out that the funeral they went to was the funeral of Harry's parents. Where the names of Gunawan and Miolla Adystie are clearly emblazoned on the tombstones they are approaching.
And then she recognized the two names quite well at Sofia mentioned their names once while they were chatting.

Cleo turned her head to Harry.
"You're taking me to see your parents?" Cleo became nervous when she hadn't prepared herself.
"Why did you invite me here?"
Harry stepped forward to explain briefly.
"I brought you here to introduce you to them. Gunawan and Miolla, they are my parents."
Harry took a few more steps forward to see his parents' frames neatly placed beside their tombstone.
"Mom, Dad. She is Cleo. My wife and your daughter-in-law."
Cleo felt the atmosphere around her felt slightly different. Spontaneously saluted and bowed deeply to introduce herself.
"I am Cleo Alayster, Mr. and Mrs. Nice to meet you both. And so sorry if I have troubled your son a lot."
Cleo protested to Harry.
"You should have told me first if you wanted to take me here to meet your parents. I haven't made any preparations. And I didn't bring anything as a gift."
Harry was calm.
"Does not matter. Because your presence is more than enough. I'm sure they want to see you in person too."
Cleo was busy catching her breath.
"Then. I invite you also for another purpose,"
Harry drew closer to Cleo. Withdrew her hand and began to look more seriously.
"Harry .." Cleo called the man's name without realizing it.
"I want to require for my parents' blessings. Will make Cleo my complete woman. And hope mom and dad help me a lot," Harry continued to say freely. Cleo was shaking with anxiety.
"What do you mean Harry? Why do you speak like that? And why do I feel sure that this time you are serious?"
Harry then knelt before Cleo.
"I want you. And I need you, Cleo. So, will you accept me as your life partner?"
Cleo shuddered. She felt her heart pumping so fast. And something is not right. Cleo immediately voiced it out.
"You're just confessed? And you have shot me at the cemetery too? But, isn't there a better place even if that was in front of your parents' graves?!"
This case, of course, was an extreme and different form of a proposal from the many excellent proposals Cleo had heard.
But Harry only chuckled weakly.
"I got carried away. So what's your answer? And I'm sure you have feelings for me too, even if it's maybe just a little."
Cleo sneered.
"You're too confident!"
Harry was being superior.
"This is not arrogance. But the result of my accurate observation."
Cleo didn't stop sneering. For a moment she felt her eyelids heat up and she wiped away her tears.
Harry added a few sentences that he had thought through carefully before.
"Come on, let's change our marriage contract. Then, if necessary, we destroy the old contract. And getting married…"
Harry's phone suddenly rang. It broke his concentration until he shuddered in annoyance because he was disturbed.
Cleo was being logical.
"Take it up. Because maybe it's important news."
The phone call turned out to be from the main residence. Was from Aunt Lily, who panicked and was worried when she reported something surprising.
"Harry! This is terrible! Your grandma just fell out of the bathroom and is currently on her way to the hospital. You have to catch up there soon. Auntie is currently on the way!"

Vampire's Pet
The world had gone to hell long ago, taken over by the vampire race. In order to keep some sort of peace in our land, the Vampire Lords made a consecutive agreement. The rich and powerful humans could survive just as they had been, untouched by the vampires save for the occasional blood collections, or so they thought In reality, we were all under their control. Castles spread out throughout our land, one landing in each city. Each castle varied in the number of vampires residing there, but all of them carried a Lord. The Lords were the ones in charge in every city, whether we liked it or not. The vampires often roam through the city, making sure that everyone was in order and no one stepped out of line. If you stepped out of line, you died, end of story. Even if the rich were still under their control, their lives were still better than the poor. The poorest lives held a much worse fate. The men were to be put to work as slaves, whether that meant serving a specific vampire, or just building their castles, they were slaves. The women were to be pets.Pets were the lowest rank you could have. They were forced into cages that were too small to stand in with collars around their necks. They spent their lives in pet shops, just waiting for the dreadful day that they'll be bought. They were treated like animals, trained into what their master wanted, and punished if they misbehaved. Those who were lucky enough to live through that, we're to be slaughtered for their blood at age twenty-five in an act to make sure that our population would stay steady. I was born into this world. Born into this world full of blood-sucking monsters. Except, I was one of the lucky ones.Was.It all ended for me when I was 12, when I was taken away from the last bit of hope and family that I had left. Ever since then, I've lived in a cage, just rotting away, waiting, dreading for the day that some monster would make me his.This is my life. I am a pet.~~~Cover by: @mshacake
