"Good evening Qiara ...". The man's smile was really charming even under the not so bright light.
"Who are you?". Qiara asked while watching the handsome man with a tall and muscular body. He was wearing a gray suit which was very luxurious and elegant, besides that his hair was combed back and looked so neat that Qiara could not recognize him.
"It's me ... Maxwell". The man replied with a smile.
Qiara immediately blinked her eyes because she couldn't believe that Maxwell, who usually dressed casually in black jeans and t-shirt, could look this handsome and neat.
"Boss, is this really you?". Qiara asked to make sure it was Maxwell.
"Am I too handsome that you do not recognize me?". Asked Maxwell with a mischievous look.
"You are different tonight, but your face only looks a little tidier, not more handsome". Qiara answered honestly.
"Haha ... You can do it. Then, can we talk now?".
"Of course, we can talk on the front porch. I'm sorry I can't ask the boss in because it's uncomfortable when other people see it". Qiara said while inviting Maxwell to sit in her chair on the terrace.
"Okay, no problem!". Maxwell sat quietly in the chair beside Qiara's chair.
"What's the matter with the boss coming here so late?". Qiara started to open questions first because she was surprised to see her big boss come to her humble boarding house.
"Tonight there is an auction of famous paintings, I got an invitation from the biggest Noble arts center in the city to attend the auction. Even though I actually don't like being at events like that. At first I wanted to invite Kevin but he is very busy with his work and my assistant can't either. However, when I heard that you really liked Nicko Jim's painting from America, I immediately came to ask you. If you want to go with me, then I will give you a painting of Nicho. How? ". Explained Maxwell.
Qiara couldn't help smiling when she heard Maxwell mention the name Nicho who was her idol.
Nicho is a painter from the United States who is very well known in the world of painting artists and his name is recognized in several countries as a genius painter.
"Of course I want to, because meeting and having one of Nicho's works is my dream. But, where is the show?". Qiara replied enthusiastically as she asked again.
"At the Rena gallery, I think you also know Rena if you are a fan of painting". Maxwell replied as he looked at Qiara's face, who couldn't stop smiling.
"Of course I know her. Alright, I'll change clothes first. Boss wait a minute!".
"You can wear this dress!". Maxwell said as he handed over the sizable box.
Qiara who was about to enter stopped and stared at the box in confusion.
"Thank you boss, but I'm more comfortable wearing my favorite dress. Don't worry, my dress is not ugly or looks old fashioned. Hehehe ...". After saying that, Qiara immediately walked in without picking up the box of clothes Max wanted to give her.
Maxwell sat down with a smile to see Qiara's behavior was so cute and simple.
However, he already bought the clothes box, so he put it on the small table on the terrace.
Max waited quietly on the terrace, even though Qiara was dressed for a long time, but Max didn't mind waiting for her.
Not long after, Qiara came out in a knee-length pink dress with pigtails.
"Come on boss, we go!".
Hearing Qiara's voice, Maxwell immediately turned his head, immediately fell silent because Qiara looked like a very cute and funny young girl.
"Boss, why are you silent?". Qiara asked when she saw her boss fell silent while looking at her.
Max was silent not only because of Qiara's cute appearance, because of Qiara's dress that looked very familiar to Maxwell. In fact, the dress he bought was not as beautiful as the one Qiara was wearing.
"Sorry, but can I hold your dress fabric?". Asked Max with a little hesitation for fear that Qiara would be offended.
"Yeah sure!". Qiara replied with a smile.
Maxwell immediately touched Qiara's dress with a sad gaze.
"This dress is made of silk cloth number one from stitching and the style of this dress reminds me of the design of a friend who died five years ago, this is the last design she made before she died. I remember that time, how Qiara had such a rare dress It has its own charm. It looks simple but very beautiful to wear with its thin or large body size. Who is this Qiara?". Maxwell thought as he looked at Qiara.
"Boss, why are you silent and look different when holding my dress?". Qiara asked confusedly.
"This is my dear friend's design, all of her latest works are not for sale, only her family's private collections. So how do you get this?" Asked Maxwell with a serious expression.
Qiara was surprised to hear Maxwell's question, which she found very confusing, because she didn't know what to answer.
There was no way she could say that the dress was given to her by Julian, in fact, almost all of her beautiful dresses were from Julian's. And what she is wearing now is one of the dresses she likes the most.
"Is this Julian's doing? Because only he could possibly do this. Could it be that Qiara is a special person in his life?" Inner Max.
"No need to answer, we better go now before the show ends". Said Max with a smile.
Qiara immediately nodded her head as she put a smile on her face and breathed a sigh of relief.
After that Qiara got into Maxwell's car nervously because this was the first time she had a car with her strange boss.
Not long after that, Max's car left the Qiara boarding area quickly.
On the way, Qiara glanced at Maxwell several times because she felt that Maxwell was the unique type of boss with his casual and elegant make-up at certain times.
"What's wrong? Why are you stealing glances at me all this time?". Asked Maxwell with a smile without glancing at Qiara.
Instantly Qiara immediately looked away and nervously.
"Ahh ... Why is he like Julian who is very sensitive and easy to guess people, I'm so embarrassed!".. Inner Qiara.
