Chapter 98 - What is love? (2) (1/2)

When she came out of the bathroom no longer saw his tall body in bed. So Wirata walked through the connecting door to her room. He was not in there either. She looked at the clock, it said one o'clock in the afternoon. Wirata called her mother and sent messages to Sam and Sophia and then looked at the door again. Still no sign of the boss. She then lied down in bed and fell asleep.

Stefan entered the game room. Walking like a rat in a trap with messy hair and a sulky face. Because someone just threw the word ... LOVE... in his face and she just walked to take a shower in the bathroom, just like that! Stefan shoved a hand in his messy hair his frowned eyebrows were dead knots!

”What a crazy woman! Only good at nagging. Now she definitely is narcissism.”

Stefan muttered to himself. He grabbed the pool stick to hit the balls on the pool table.

Ben and James walked out of the office room and heard the boss muttering in the game room. So they walked in to join him. Seeing the boss hitting the ball so hard and then stood with the broody face, his eyebrows knotted as he was thinking something very important and very tense.

James knew his boss's mood so well so he went to the bar and poured whiskey into a thick glass and handed it to the boss. He quickly drank it down his throat and put the glass down.

When the boss had to use his brain to think big things, he needed a little amber water to help stimulate the creative glands in his brain. And it looked like this time he definitely had something big in his clever head because he kept shoving a hand into his hair and it was as messy as a broom.

”You two answer my question now. Have you seen me loving anyone around here?! Or do I love anyone at all?!”

Suddenly the boss asked a strange question. Ben and James looked at each other. They were not sure what the question was for. It was not even a clear question.

”Um, of course, boss. You love your father and mother.”

Ben answered first with the safest choice. Then the boss nodded at moved his eyes to James.

”You definitely love Sam.”

James gave an answer. Stefan loved his family, no doubt about it. And for Sam, Stefan loved his younger brother so much.

”You love your employees.”

Ben took turn when the boss moved his gaze back to him. Stefan cared and took good care of his subordinates, including their families. If there was a problem, the boss never ignored his men's personal needs. He ensured everything was okay, running neat and smooth. The boss never left anyone to face trouble if they needed his help.

For this reason, everyone under Mackenzie Enterprise was truly serving the Masters with love and respect from the heart. But only one rule, Stefan would feed only those he thought were good. He did not pick garbage to be on his ship.

Stefan listened, using his finger to rub his chin, thinking along. He looked at James next. James knew his cue.

”Um, Summer. You love the puppy. Yes. Definitely.”

James did not forget the boss's new favorite pet. Saw him at the point of smiling a little. Then he turned to Ben who was putting his thinking-cap on.

”Are you running out of stock?”

The dashing voice asked sarcastically, stared at his follower, waiting for an answer. Ben and James still did not understand the purpose of the boss's question. But however, they continued to contemplate to find more names.

Ben pointed his finger towards the master bedroom. James looked in the eyes of his friend before turning to look at the boss.

”Um ... and ... Miss Wirata.” Ben said out.

”What?!!”

The boss made shouted in an unbelievingly high pitch that made the subordinates startled.

”What did you say? I ... don't ... I don't ... I don't think anything like that! Never!”

The harsh voice was shouting louder than necessary. Maybe so that the boss could hear himself. He wanted the words got inside his head and his heart as well.

Stefan Mackenzie did not love a money-loving woman. A woman who could be bought. Woman with a price is valueless.

Ben and James made eye contact. Unsure how to answer any further so they were only standing quietly ... and wondering why did the boss ask anyway when he did not want the honest answer?

”Don't you remember? I already told you that I don't love the women that I can buy. ”

The boss repeated his mantra. Ben and James gazed at one another sedning signal that they did remember well. But did the boss himself remember or forgot already? However, they stood quietly to play safe for now.

”This is only not long, not many days since I met the woman. How could I think...about... Lo...v... like that? I am not a gullible person! ”

It seemed like the boss has trouble saying the word ... LOVE. And the boss probably forgot that it was not just ... days ... but... years.

”It's been four years now, boss.”

Ben responded. Yeah, definitely four years since the boss got the love letter to tell him to go to HELL.

Stefan turned to glare at his man.

”Shut the fuck up! You two can't know better than me!”

Oh ... and why was he asking them?

Ben and James looked at each other again.

”You had never been with any woman this long.”

James was a brave dead unit.
