Chapter 575 - Arlo! Don... President Smith

"But what I got to know? I'm the daughter of a rich man who had and has security around all the time... That's not a peaceful life. Is it?"

Sky didn't wait for any reply and continued "Worrying that somebody would do something to us is not a peaceful life."

"Leave about it." Sky raised her hand in surrender. "I accepted it, I accepted it wholeheartedly even if I was late."

David took a deep breath who had stopped breathing till that. For a movement, he was scared because of Arlo she might misunderstand him and leave.

He also knew whatever she said was the truth. Even though he knew Arlo would never let anything happen to her, he would be still worried until he sees her with his own eyes.

He might not ask her about how she was doing but he would ask multiple times in a day to the people who were there for her safety just to know she was doing good.

Sky stood up abruptly and spoke as she pointed at Arlo who had no idea what to do.

"But guess what? I'm married to the one who is so bloody rich that even you are poor in front of him. Whose security is so high that even his expenses for himself are least compared to what he is spending for his own damn safety."

"How can you support him? Why did you support him? Didn't you know I never wanted a rich man? Dad! I hated you for so many years in the past just because you are rich."

David subconsciously looked at Jai because even though he supported it, it was decided after Jai's approval. Even Jai was the one to decide when she asked if she could marry Arlo.

Sky saw his line of sight and stated, "Dad! Don't even think about putting it on Brother Jai."

All were speechless excluding Loran and Jai. The latter extended his hand at Sky calling her. She sat between brothers holding Jai's arm and glaring at two rich men in the hall alternatively.

There was pin-drop silence for a long time as Jai made her drink water. Jai knew well she wasn't angry with anybody except on him, she just didn't want the way she lived till now to change again. She didn't like the fact that her life was getting more complicated.

Sky looked at Arlo who was still standing with hopeless expression then she saw Sam, "Sam!". The latter regretted staying back when Jai asked.

He heard his name and furrowed his brows. Because he had to hide Arlo's identity because of David's request and Sky trusted him with everything.

But Sky's question made him sigh internally. "You, Peter and others hated him because you all had to hide his... I mean President Smith's identity from me right?"

Sam pursed his lips not to change the atmosphere from laughing because of hearing 'President Smith'. Sky saw him nodding and hummed before looking at Arlo.

"And Ar... Oops. President Smith! Were you the one who controlled Harley for a year or Was I and Am I still CEO of Harley corporation?"

Olivia and Ryan who had controlled laughing the first time, hearing 'President Smith' in such a respectful way from Sky that even her sarcastic tone wouldn't match up, burst into laughter sitting next to each other.

Sky ignored it and looked at the butler who was standing at some distance. "Butler Uncle, please get me an Ice pack. Thank you." she asked loudly enough to be heard by him.

"Right away Young miss." Butler went inside and asked the maid to send the ice pack.

Jai's face turned gloomy, "Sky! Are you hurt?"

Sky shook her head without making eye contact and pointed at Ryan, "Ra... Mr.Ryan Wilson or should I say, Assistant Wilson."

Ryan had actually forgotten about it worrying about Sky and Arlo. Sky received the ice pack sat next to Ryan before keeping it on his arm above his shirt.

Sensing his gaze on her, She shot a glance a Ryan, "Don't even expect me to apologize to you. Be happy that I didn't shoot you on sight."

Ryan smiled awkwardly. He wasn't expecting an apology. Instead, he was surprised that she sat herself to a cold compress treatment and even knew where she hit exactly.

"Sky! Do you know to use a handgun? Or is it just to scare people?" Ryan asked carefully in a low voice.

Loran answered him excitedly, "Sister Sky's aim is sharp due to her archery skills."

"Both are different." Ryan did not really believe she could be good.

Sky who saw his expression shook her head resignedly, "Assistant Wilson, is it your talent to look down on me just because you two could fool me for so long?"

Ryan shook his head vigorously thinking she might bring up the topic again. Sam pushed the handgun on the coffee table towards Sky. "Show him."

Sky pointed her hand at Arlo without looking at him, "By aiming him?"

David choked on her words. Loran spoke, "Sister Sky! On moving object. I will throw this plate."

Loran poured the plate content to another plate as he spoke. Sky looked at Jai who nodded at her then she took her handgun. Loran threw the plate up in the air away from them.

'Snap'

'Crack'

Sky kept the pistol back on the table and changed her left hand which was holding an ice pack to the right hand.

Ryan and Olivia were shocked. Arlo was surprised. They didn't expect her to be so good.

Sam commented, "You are slow by a second from a perfect aim."

Jai added, "1.60 seconds."

"It's been a long time." Sky said nonchalantly. She was initially trained by Jai for archery and Sam with a handgun.

Ryan's mouth was wide open in shock. Loran still cheered Sky, "Sister Sky! You are so cool using a handgun."

Ryan stuttered, "So even if I tried to dodge, you would have still shot me?"

He finished and all the guards who heard gunshot came inside but they spoke to Arlo instead of David. "Sir! We just heard a gunshot from inside."

Sky handed the ice pack to Ryan and stood up. She clapped looking at Arlo. "Congratulations President Smith."

All knew why she said it. Jai stopped David from speaking. Arlo called her name helplessly, "Sky!"

"Ahhh, I don't want to talk to you." Sky said in frustration and went outside.

Jai cued Arlo to go after her. David asked guards to back to work. Then Jai spoke, "Don't take what she said to heart. She will be fine after talking to Arlo."

All nodded in understanding. They didn't mind whatever she said. They all understood what she wanted and exactly those she couldn't get in her life. So getting annoyed was common.

Ryan coughed lightly, "How will she react when she gets to know she is the leading shareholder of the Milton Empire?"

Jai sighed, "She wanted nothing and she got way too much. Old master Milton isn't agreeing to transfer shares. So let's see what will happen."

Jai didn't want to tell about the Milton empire shares to Sky unless Arthur couldn't be handled.

Jai turned to Sam, "Thank you, Sam! I didn't want Sky to get upset with you later so I had asked you to stay."

Sam nodded, "No Problem!" But Sky didn't get upset on him at all instead she understood his situation.

--

Sky who went out noticed Arlo following her. "Arlo! Don... President Smith, Stop following me."

Whenever Sky called 'President Smith' Her tone would be more like she was talking to an elderly man with lots of respect rather than her husband.
