Chapter 5 Help

"Don't worry, i will help you as much as possible so that Daddy doesn't set you up with the man earlier. I can't agree with it when I see it."

Cilla frowned at her brothers last words. "How is that possible? You knows Neiro?"

"Oh, so his name is Neiro. I don't know him, but just looking at him from the outside, I don't agree if he is betrothed to you. I feel he is not good for you,Cell," Ernest replied without hesitation, expressing what had been on his mind.

Cilla nodded in understanding. "Is that so? I don't know," he said before returning to his silence, staring straight ahead

"Yeah, it's just a feeling, Cill."

Again, Cilla nodded, not making a sound, leaving the two of them shrouded in silence. However, that didn't last long because after that, Cilla spoke again.

"By the way, thanks, Bro, for earlier; if it weren't for you, I would still be there right now. To be honest, I felt very uncomfortable being there; I feel that Neiro keeps looking at me," Cilla said a little confidingly.

"You're welcome; it looks like he's already interested in you,Cell," replied Ernest with his own opinion.

Cilla took a deep breath. "I don't know, bro, never mind, don't think about that problem first; it makes me dizzy."

"Let's go for a walk while having a snack first, how about? While waiting for Daddy's friend to come home," Ernest offered, to which Cilla immediately responded enthusiastically. Even so, her head still felt dizzy.

"Let's go!" Cilla exclaimed with four-five enthusiasm. Suddenly, he immediately rose from the chair and grabbed his sister's wrist.

"If it's about snacking, cheer up," Ernest sneered, followed by a chuckle while fondly ruffling Cilla's beautifully flowing hair.

"Ouch, messy, brother!" annoyed Cilla, who returned to tidying up her slightly messy hair due to Ernest's actions. He was cute, but not like that until Ernest ruffled his hair.

"You're so adorable after all," Ernest replied lightly. He was even more exasperated to see his sister's face, which looked even cuter when she was annoyed.

"Don't be angry now; he said he wanted a snack," continued Ernest, who then gently took Cilla's right hand and took his younger sibling to his car, which was parked not far from where they were.

The next morning, after Cilla had breakfast with her family in silence and mutual silence, the girl was now getting ready to go to work. For the second time, Cilla still feels excited about going to work. Whether it's been months or not, hopefully she can still enjoy and be excited about going to work.

Prana and Frans sighed softly as they watched their two children leave the dining room after they finished breakfast. During breakfast, people who used to talk to each other before were now just silent, and the atmosphere was so silent.

"Is Cilla mad at me?" Frans asked his wife.

Prana nodded. "It might be like that."

After last night's incident, Cilla had not spoken to her parents at all, nor did she intend to persuade her father again. Cilla wasn't angry at them; she was just too lazy to talk to her parents.

"Bring your own car, Cilla?" asked Ernest when he and Cilla had arrived outside the house. Both intend to go to their respective workplaces; Ernest goes to the hospital, while Cilla goes to the Alexander's Corp. company.

"Yeah, so what?" asked Cilla back.

"Otherwise, I'd like to take you with me. It's the same way, isn't it?" Ernest replied, making Cilla nod.

"Thanks, Bro. I'll just drive my own car; if you come with you, you'll be the one to pick it up, and I'm afraid it'll be a hassle," said Cilla with an uneasy feeling.

"Haha, like whoever you are,Cll," Ernest replied, chuckling. He couldn't believe his sister still thought that way.

"I'm not comfortable with you, bro."

"Okay, I'll go first," continued Cilla before walking away from Ernest towards one of the cars in their garage.

"Be careful," Ernest said, being the last sentence he said before Cilla actually left with his car from George's residence area.

Cilla nodded and waved goodbye to her brother.

Cilla drives her car while half daydreaming; occasionally she wakes up when she is about to pass a red traffic light, and after that, she returns half daydreaming the whole way. Luckily, he made it safely to his destination without any problems.

Arriving at the office parking lot, Cilla got down and locked her car just in case. Who knows? There are still thieves in the big company that Cilla works for.

With this morning's mood returning to normal, Cilla made wide strides leaving the parking area and headed into the office, where several employees had already left and were walking in and out of the office.

Every now and then, Cilla is greeted by several employees who are already acquainted with her. The girl replies in a friendly manner, even though after that she returns to showing a straight face.

Arriving on the top floor of the Alexander's Corp. office, Cilla glanced at the tightly closed CEO room.

"Maybe the boss hasn't left yet," Cilla muttered assumingly.

However, in reality, when Cilla had just sat down, the door to the CEO's office suddenly opened and Leon appeared, who looked neat in a boss suit as usual.

Seeing that, Cilla immediately turned her gaze in another direction, pretending she was busy checking the contents of the bag she was carrying. However, there was nothing he was looking for.

"Pretend not to see,Cell," Cilla said to herself in a very low voice.

Unfortunately, Leon instead stared as he stepped toward the girl in silence. And Cilla felt it because she saw Leon's shadow approaching her.

'What's he going to do? Don't let him be annoying again like yesterday', thought Cilla, who had been prejudiced against Leon.

"Cilla!" The firm call was able to startle Cilla a little. The girl immediately looked up at Leon with a very obvious look of surprise on her face.

"Yeah, Sir?"

"Make me some coffee right now!" Leon ordered in the typical style of a boss who is free to order his employees or subordinates as he pleases.

Cilla frowned, disapproving of her boss' orders. 'Why don't you just ask your OB? Why are you even ordering me to act as a secretary, and it's not her job to make coffee for him? thought Cilla. Don't ask why she didn't say it directly to Leon's face; of course, because her guts weren't that big, she was still sane enough not to threaten her own position as the CEO's secretary.

"Why should I, sir? Isn't there an OB who-"

"I do not accept any objection whatsoever! For me, I can order anyone to make coffee, especially you," interrupted Leon casually in his boss's style.

Cilla, who heard that curse, held back the anger that could overflow at any time, and she tried to hold back her anger in front of Leon so she wouldn't be fired right then and there.

"Good, sir." Cilla was very forced to agree to Leon's order; her smile was clearly visible, indicating that she had to obey the order of her arrogant boss.

"Good! I'll wait inside."

Cilla watched Leon leave with an annoyed look. "Damn it!" she cursed openly after Leon left her presence, but still Cilla cursed softly for fear that someone would hear her.

The girl walked lazily towards the pantry area on the top floor. It could be said that the entire room and the place on the top floor were special places for a CEO like Leon.

From adding coffee to sugar, Cilla was very careful; she was afraid that what she did would lead to a fatal error.

"Hopefully I didn't make a mistake in making it and it tastes good," muttered Cilla after she made a cup of coffee according to Leon's orders.

Cautiously, the girl walked away from the kitchen and returned to Leon's room to deliver the coffee she had just made.

Without knocking on Cilla's door, she immediately entered Leon's room. She slowly placed the cup of coffee that was still very hot on the desk where Leon was now.

"Here's the coffee, sir," Cilla said, bowing politely. And Leon, who saw that, nodded while straightening up.

"Excuse me." Just as Cilla was about to leave the CEO's room, she was stopped by her boss.

"Wait."

Cilla took a deep breath. Yes, sir, why?" The girl lazily asked Leon with a faint smile that was very forced.

"You waithere Wait a minute before I try the coffee," Leon said, making Cilla nod resignedly.

Inside, Cilla encouraged herself to be patient with Leon because he had only been working at Alexander's Corp. for two days.

Cilla's gaze kept on Leon, who was going to try the coffee he made. "Slow down, sir; it's still hot," said the girl, causing Leon to stop. In an instant, Leon stared sharply at Cilla.

"You want to kill me? Why are you making the coffee so hot?"

'Gosh, I already rebuked and still get angry', thought Cilla, grumbling in her heart.

"Sorry, sir. Coffee is made from hot water, and I immediately brought it to you, so it's only natural that the coffee is still very hot," explained Cilla, trying to be patient. To be honest, she could never be that patient.

"Shut up! You dare to argue with me?" Leon firmly made Cilla look down with her hands clenched, a sign that it was a girl trying to keep her temper.

"Excuse me, sir." However, all Cilla could do was apologize. Here he is, and he has power to rely on because this is not his family-owned company.

Leon just nodded before slowly sipping his coffee while occasionally blowing slowly. However, after just a small sip, Leon's expression suddenly changed to one of dislike.

With a bit of a grunt, the man put the cup of coffee he had tried on the table again, which made Cilla reflexively raise her head and stare at Leon with annoyance. The coffee water that was in the cup spilled a little due to Leon's own actions.

"You put sugar in my coffee?" Leon asked in a tone that sounded annoyed and slightly raised.

Cilla blinked and innocently nodded. "Yes, sir, indeed-"

"I don't like coffee with sugar! Now make me a new coffee without sugar!" said Leon offhandedly.

Cilla looked down. She closed her eyes briefly to hold back her anger before a rough sigh escaped from her mouth. "Okay sir."

After that, without much protest, Cilla took the cup of coffee that Leon had drunk a bit of and left the man's room feeling irritated.

"Damn it! Damn it!" Cilla couldn't take the harsh curses anymore after she left Leon's room.

"Why didn't he say that earlier before I made the coffee? Why?" grumbled Cilla, annoyed half to death, her whole face turning red.

"What an asshole! No feelings! Why didn't he just order an OB? If it's like this, my work will increase even though I still have a lot to do!" Without hesitation, Cilla cursed Leon all the way back to the kitchen to replace Leon's coffee.

Whether there is CCTV in the area or not, the point is that Cilla wanted to vent her frustration by swearing at Leon with harsh words.

"Should I give him this coffee poison so he doesn't make me emotional?" muttered Cilla, who was now making another coffee without sugar for Leon. I don't know why this crazy idea appeared when Cilla's feelings were very upset.

Hopefully this time there will be no mistake. Cilla deliberately gave half hot and half cold water in her coffee so that Leon would no longer protest.

"Fortunately he's the boss; if not, I would have scratched his annoying face!" Until the coffee is ready, Cilla continues to grumble in annoyance.

However, when she returned to Leon's room, Cilla tried to be relaxed and calm, which was very different from her previous moodiness.
