Chapter 404 - Sky chose President Lan(3)

When Sam sat inside the car, he saw Sky wearing shoes but she had black jeans pants on. Sam understood her immediately and laughed. "Dress on the dress! So that jacket is for another dress."

"Smart man! I let him off the hook if he was gentleman till I leave. By the way, do your microphone that can record?"

Sam was confused, "Why is that?"

"If he shows his business skills while proposing, I want brother Joe and Dad to know who they supported till now." Sky furrowed her brows and took a deep breath.

Sam passed the microphone to her. "Sky! If he really impressed you, will you accept him?"

"Oh! Maybe." Sky said and connect the microphone to her top.

"Won't you guys support me if I say yes to him?" Sky asked as she peeked at the driver seat.

"Of course, everyone will support you." Sam said the matter of fact.

Arlo who left the Harley corporation got to know Kris reserved the entire Empire hotel which was decorated extravagantly.

Soon he received a picture in which Sky who was flashing a bright smile looking at Sam. She was wearing navy blue off-shoulder, cap-sleeved gown. Embellished diamonds were sparking as a white and black diamond sparkled on her neck.

She had tied her hair in a messy bun with few strands falling on her shoulder. She kept her makeup-free face with just pink lipstick on. Her skin was glowing under light and her smile was bewitching. Her perfect figure highlighted in the gown.

He felt an urge to kidnap her or ruin the proposal. Thinking she may want to be with him he turned off his phone and went to his home. He locked himself in the room without telling anything to anyone.

Sky reached the Empire hotel and went in leaving Sam in the car. She took her mobile and Jacket and went inside. The first reaction after entering the restaurant was, 'Rich people have their ways.'

It was drop-dead gorgeous.

It was flashy yet elegant. The right balance of the colors in the complete hotel. Seeing no waiters and customers around, she got to know, the complete hotel was booked.

Kris came in front of her in a navy blue slim suit and white shirt. It was a perfect match for her dress. He flashed her a gentle smile and extended his hand towards her.

Sky thought to remain neutral as usual in their previous meetings. "Thank you for the dress, President Lan. But what is special today?" Sky gave her hand and walked with him to the table as she asked.

"Tomorrow is my birthday, so you can consider it as a gift for coming to having dinner with me." He kept his gentleman manners.

"Oh!" Did Sam and I think too much? Sky thought to herself.

"Sorry, I didn't know about your birthday." Sky said as she sat down.

"Are you holding the party here? Why is it empty?" Sky looked around as she asked.

Kris smiled, "Kind of."

'means?' Sky didn't worry much.

"I have ordered. Hope you don't mind." Kris said.

There were sitting opposite to each other on a circular glass table which was lavishly decorated.

"No problem!" Sky said and looked at the dishes around her plate.

She gritted her teeth when she saw salad, 'Is this man nuts? Peanuts again!'

Sky breathed through her mouth to calm herself.

They started their dinner, Even though she calmed herself as normal dinner, she had no appetite. She time passed listening to Kris who was talking about western cuisine.

"You know a lot about food. My secretary is the best cook. But he doesn't like to open a restaurant. He just cooks for me." Sky said and ate pasta.

"Good! Did you like dinner today?" Kris asked elegantly.

"It's good. This pasta can be even better." Sky said the matter of fact.

After eating Arlo's cooked food, she likes his continental dishes than the hotel food. But what Sky didn't know was the dinner she was eating was prepared by Kris.

"Oh! I think I should meet your secretary." Kris slightly paused and spoke.

Sky didn't say anything, she wasn't ready to call him to Harley or take Arlo to him. Never!

"You have seen him, When you came to my home, he cooked for me knowing you used peanuts." Sky showed peanuts using another fork.

"Oh! I forgot you are allergic to Peanuts. I'm so sorry." Kris showed a concerned face.

"Never mind!" Sky left the fork and finished her pasta.

She finished and dabbed her lips. After taking a sip of juice, she kept the glass back. She was about to say they should leave, kris changed the topic. "What is your view about marriage?"

"Nothing" Sky never really thought about it.

Kris coughed lightly, "I will not beat around the bush. What do you think about the marriage alliance between Lan and Harley? We both are working as President and CEO of our companies. Our most of the view and ideas are same. And we are at the right age for getting married. I think we are compatible with each other. What do you say?"

Sky was dumbfounded. 'Is he proposing? is this proposal?'

'Why do movies show it differently?'

'Is he dealing this as a business?'

Sky didn't know what to say. "I'm sorry, I..."

Kris cut in, "You don't have to answer me right away. You can take your time if you want."

'Do every one propose like this in real life?'

Sky shook her head to stop thinking but Kris spoke, "You don't have to worry about after marriage. You can continue your work and I will not interfere with anything. You can continue your life as usual."

'You can continue your work and I will not interfere with anything. You can continue your life as usual.'

Didn't she say the same thing to Jai when she spoke to him?

'Brother Jai, I will consider if he doesn't interfere with my life and let me live as I want.'

Sky was thinking as she looked at Kris.
