Chapter 246 - Forced To Stay Overnight

Not long after that the two of them entered the house. 

Demian was stunned to see the house that was quiet and there was no sense of warmth emitted by the aura of the house, so gray as if there was no joy in it. 

"Sit down first! I'll ask the waiter to make you tea!". Rena said while inviting Demian to sit on her sofa. 

Without saying anything, Demian sat down and watched every corner of the house. 

"Is this a haunted house? They say there are two servants here, but why does this house look like it's not maintained at all? The paint color used is so calm, besides that I can't feel any warmth in this house". Demian thought in surprise. 

A moment later. 

"The rain is getting heavier and the night is getting late. So, I beg you to stay here! I have a lot of empty rooms, how?". Rena said after returning from the kitchen. 

"Gosh... Why did you startle me?". Asked Demian with a bad expression. 

"Sorry! Are you fantasizing? I thought you realized my arrival". Said Rena with a frown. 

"No. I'm not a ghost who can feel people's presence". Demian replied curtly. 

"How about me? Can you feel my presence?".

Hearing Rena's question, Demian immediately turned his head towards her. Instantly he was surprised again when he saw Rena covering her face with her long hair, smiling. 

"Aaaa..... Hey ... Why are you startling me again? Can't you act normal a little?". Demian said, which Rena managed to surprise him for the second time. 

"Because you called ghosts. Hehe ... Oh yeah, are you afraid of ghosts?". Rena sat across from Demian with a smile. 

"Forget it! I will not answer your question, you better show me where my room is because I was very sleepy". Said Demian who started to change the subject.

Rena was silent because she didn't want to make Demian angry, she took a deep breath and then smiled again.

"Follow me! I'll show you where your room is!".

Rena stood up then walked towards the room in question followed by Demian behind her. 

Along the way to his room, Demian felt increasingly strange that this palace-like house was very large but haunted. 

Some of the paintings which are perhaps the longest paintings of Rena on the walls of the house, Demian acknowledged the beauty of Rena's stunning art work with her own hand-painted paintings. 

"This is your room! I purposely chose you that is closer to my room, so you can wake me up if you need anything". Rena said after opening the door to Demian. 

"Khem .. Have you ever brought your friend here before?". Asked Demian who began to be curious about Rena's private life. 

"No. You're the first". Rena answered without emotion. 

"Why? Don't you have friends?".

"Friends? I don't believe in friends, they are good in front but stab in the back. Most of the humans wear masks". Rena replied sarcastically. 

"Alright, I'll go in now!". Said Demian who felt strange continuing the chat. 

"Oh yeah, if you change your mind then you immediately go to my room to sleep together, I make sure you won't use a single cloth". Whispered Rena with a mischievous smile. 

Immediately Demian got goosebumps, he immediately closed the door of the room because he started to feel hot when he heard Rena's whisper which was accompanied by a soft blow to his ears. 

Rena smiled amused because she managed to make Demian scared, after that she left Demian's room. 

"You crazy woman, why is she so vulgar as a woman?". Inner Demian while sighing heavily. 

After that he immediately got into bed because he was really tired. 

The next morning. 

Time passed, the morning approached bringing the sun to keep its promise in the morning. 

Qiara woke up and found Julian still asleep beside her, she smiled as she pinched Julian's cheek. Instantly Julian opened his eyes and found Qiara staring at him gently. 

"Morning dear! Did you sleep well?". Julian asked after kissing Qiara's forehead. 

"Yes, so soundly that I forgot what time we got home last night". Qiara replied. 

"Khemm ... Why are you falling asleep so early and when you sleep so hard to wake up". Asked Julian who forgot that his wife was pregnant. 

"I'm also confused with myself, why can I be like this? By default I want to eat and sleep. Is there a problem with me? Or I need to go to the hospital? What do you think?". Qiara explained with confusion. 

Julian was silent to hear his wife's story, he just remembered that it might be the effect of a baby in her stomach.

"Gosh... Why could I forget? My wife is pregnant, maybe this is the effect of a baby in her stomach as a substitute for nausea. Because she never feels nauseous when I pay attention". Inner Julian. 

Qiara looked at Julian while narrowing her eyes, she was surprised by Julian's sudden silence. 

"Why are you even silent?". Asked Qiara who was getting impatient. 

"It's not like that, I just thought for a moment to find a solution. Oh yeah, it's already morning I will prepare breakfast for you, what do you want to eat?". Said Julian who immediately changed the conversation.

"Why are you even changing the subject? Please answer my question please". Qiara urged her sullenly.

"Alright, we will ask Eka about your problem. Now I will call her!". Said Julian, grabbing his cell phone on the table next to his bed. 

Qiara's expression turned dark when she heard Eka's name, immediately Qiara got out of bed and then ran out of her room to the next room without waiting for what Julian would say. 

"Darling, don't run, you can fall!". Julian shouted as he ran after Qiara because he was surprised to see her suddenly run.

When she got to the room, Qiara immediately locked the door in annoyance. 

"Honey, why are you running and hiding in the room? What's wrong?".

"I don't want to see you, don't you want to leave me by going with that Eka doctor? You prefer to be with her who is a doctor and can take care of you?". Qiara shouted from inside the room while leaning against the door with teary eyes. 

"Who wants to leave you?". Julian asked again in surprise at his wife who still thought badly of him, especially with the women who were around him. 

"You, who else".. Qiara replied curtly, she suddenly burst into tears.
