Chapter 518 - Are you married?

Arlo raised his brows and waited for her to continue, "Because they can only see you. Similarly whoever you said can only see me. But YOU are the one who has ME ."

Arlo understood what she meant. She may act crazy or be childlike but she was sensible.

"Should I take you back to our room?" Arlo whispered near her ear as they descended stairs. Because Ryan's eyes were on him and he knew he could read his lips.

Even if Ryan knows about it, that wasn't a problem. he would whine to Olivia all-day. Sky heard his enticing tone so she left his arm and ran down.

'We can't have a normal conversation anymore.'

After breakfast, Sky and Arlo left for Legacy. Arlo had increased the security and warned her not to roam around much.

"So the secretary is daring to warn the President?" Sky glared at him as they exited the elevator of Legacy with the other four.

Peter coughed lightly, "We will check into our room and come."

Peter left with Sam and others. Sky looked at them confusedly. Arlo saw her in confusion and took her to a Presidential Suite which was booked for them.

"They ran away because..." Arlo finished it with locking her lips.

Sky tried to push him away but gave in soon. She felt lightheaded soon as her legs were softening. Her thoughts were disoriented by the time he released her.

She was still thinking when they ended up on the bed, Arlo asked, "Are you sure I warned you as secretary?"

Looking at her plump lips, he didn't want to send her out of the room anymore. "Why are you so sensitive?"

"Huh?" She felt her lips and understood what he was talking about. "Do you enjoy giving them a reason to tease me?"

She punched him and went to the mirror. She had to use ice as an ice pack that was available in the suite to reduce the swelling faster before going out.

Rony was quick and clean with his arrangements so far, so they didn't have much work. But the auction items which got delivered were to be kept safe after confirming it was original.

By afternoon they finished everything and went for lunch. After everything was perfect, they went back to their room to rest. Sky was working on her laptop leaning on Arlo when she received a call.

Sky asked Arlo to check and speak. The latter's face darkened seeing the contact name and he threw the mobile aside.

Sky checked the contact and answered it making him fume red. "Yes?"

"Kris here! I'm in Legacy. If you are free, Can we clear the process of share transfer?" An unemotional yet gentle voice sounded on another end.

Arlo heard it as it was on speaker. Sky could feel the changes in Arlo. 'He is soo petty.'

"Sure! I will send my secre... I will send My Husband to get the paper to me for the signature. Monday you will get your shares paper. Where are you now?" Her voice was distant and cold.

One was shocked to hear. one was overjoyed but his face didn't let it out. It was the first time she said it out as 'My Husband'

The call line was silent for a few seconds, "In the restaurant."

Sky didn't reply and hung up. She spoke in a distant voice which she always used in office, "Arlo, Didn't you hear? Go and carry out the work."

"Sure Ms.Sky!" Arlo kept pillows tp her back to lean on and bit her neck before leaving.

"Arlo!" She punched him in vain and her cheeks were burning before he left. She still could feel the butterflies in her stomach.

'You just find different ways to distract me every time.' Sky breathed through her mouth to calm her rapidly beating heart and continued her work.

-- In the restaurant --

Two men sat opposite to each other as an advocate stood by the side. Kris wanted to ask what he heard was the truth but seeing his piercing gaze, he passed the papers first.

Arlo was too lazy to check hence he passed the papers to the manager, "Send it to my team for verification. Now."

The manager took pictures and sent them.

Kris sat for two minutes silently and spoke, "At the end of the day, she turned out to be a gold digger."

Arlo lips dangerously tilted up which made the other two swallow and divert their gaze. "Are you talking about double payment? You will get to know what she will do with that. If you thinking she married the richest businessman leaving you, for your information, she doesn't even know my real identity. And... just now you said gold digger to  MY. WIFE ."

His voice carried a threat that Kris understood well. It took him nearly three months to manage the mess of at the company from two small video Sky played around. But it ruined his image and his pride of 'Nation's Husband' was gone.

If she released the evidence which she had or if Arlo attacked, then it would be impossible to get back the glory of Kris international in Country A. He understood one more thing looking at Arlo who never cared to talk to anyone spoke about Sky. Seeing him defend his wife, it clearly said how important Sky was to him.

"Sir, Are you married?" The manager who returned to his side heard only 'my wife' .

Sensing the atmosphere, he shut his mouth after saying, "Papers are perfect."

Arlo got up and left with the papers.

Sky signed after confirming Arlo verified from the advocates. She then retrieved a card and signed it on before sending it back with the papers.

Arlo instructed the manager who followed him before cozying up with Sky in their room as he gave her a hard time to complete her work. Sky had to retype the mail replies many times whenever he distracted her with his new methods.

Kris received papers with a card from the hotel manager. It was a thank you card for donating a huge sum of money to the Harley Orphanage.

He thought she was making use of it to earn some more money. Little did he expect her to keep only what the shares costed and the rest of the amount was written on the card.

He regretted every action whatever he had done after hearing her rejection. He had no plans to attend the charity banquet but he decided to attend after seeing the card.
