Chapter 618 - Dirty mind

Sky thought to herself and quickly cleaned herself. Arlo washed her hair and even dried it.

Both got ready and went downstairs. Seeing Sky weary, David couldn't help but ask, "Lass! Why do you look tired? Are you unwell?"

Sky replied with a straight face before drinking milk. "Workout time increased."

Arlo paused before continuing with his French toast. He was very proud of his wife for not lying.

Olivia and David concernedly chided her and asked her not to overdo anything. Ryan who was in the gym early morning could understand which workout she said about.

After hearing Olivia and David, Sky asked them, "Is that only for me or applies for him too?"

Ryan choked on his juice which spilled on his clothes. He left the table cursing Sky in mind.

Olivia and David said in unison clear and crisp, "For everyone." Sky pursed her lips and nodded with a hum.

Arlo pinched her thigh to which her face turned red for controlling her scream and stomped on his shiny black dress shoes.

After leaving home, Sky laughed her heart out rolling on her seat. "Grandmother and Dad are so cute."

"And you are shameless." Ryan roared from shotgun seat giving dirty look to Sky.

Sky turned serious when he finished, "Ryan, what are you thinking? How can workout long become shamelessness? Even, you workout in the gym, so are you shameless too?"

Hearing her serious tone, Ryan got confused if he thought too much. "Did you guys use the gym in the evening?"

Sky pursed her lips to control and she didn't answer his question. She spoke seriously, "Were you thinking something else? Ryan, you have a dirty mind."

Arlo who knew she was playing with words saw Ryan easily falling in it as his ears turned red.

He didn't reply and Arlo pinched her cheek before pulling her to him.

Both reviewed Arlo's files on his laptop in two windows. Sky was pointing the required changes if any to which Arlo would reply back in the emails.

As usual, Sky saw full entourage waiting at Sigma Industries to welcome Arlo and Ryan. She again attracted attention wearing running shoes, white shorts, and half sleeve top. Her hair was tied in a big messy bun. She looked like a pretty college girl.

"Are you two expecting me to jog here?" Sky who tried to match their speed gave up and walked at normal speed. Their two steps were equal to her three wide steps.

Both paused and walked with her which made Directors look at each other once and watch the trio enter the elevator.

Sky checked a few emails and replied. She sent Arlo to his meeting before her meeting started. Sky finished her meeting first and went through some files when she got a message.

"Conference room 4". She replied immediately, "I will be bored."

After seeing the next reply, she went to the conference room 4.

"Oh! I will cancel the meeting and come there."

'Mr. President! worry about your company.' Sky thought to herself and gave a single knock on the door before entering and sitting next to Arlo.

The latecomers to the meeting weren't allowed if headed by Arlo or Ryan. Seeing Sky sitting nonchalantly without even asking permission, all started to doubt if she was really just a personal secretary.

Sky glanced at the architecture of the national museum which Sigma was going to start the construction soon. The budget was too high hence Harley construction didn't consider it for bidding.

Instead of her work, she listened to the presentation until they went on to the detailed safety and security details.

As Sky knew, Sam and his fellow mates' smart security ideas were top-notch and Sky knew many of them so she wasn't interested in Sigma's ideas. Even though she heard, she worked on her laptop until she started feeling drowsy and wanted to leave.

But Arlo asked her to sleep after lunch. Sky who had supported her head on her palms dozed off seeing the 3D interior design video of five stories that had light music.

It confirmed Ryan that workout he thought was correct and she had just played with his mind as she never said anything contradiction to his thoughts.

He knew well she wasn't the one who would disturb somebody in meetings. So he paused the presentation and signaled Arlo. Then everyone saw Arlo carrying out Sky with their mouths wide open.

As soon as Sky was laid on the bed, she woke up. "Arlo! meeting. Sorry sorry I didn't want to sleep. Didn't I say I wanted to leave? Sorry, I disturbed..."

Hearing her going on with sorry, he again carried her out to the kitchen.

Ryan shook his head resignedly looking at the duo entering the kitchen. He pinged once not to forget him for lunch and didn't go to the kitchen to leave them alone.

A call from Andy disturbed the mood in the kitchen. After emails, Andy had received a few calls from Apollo international asking for to meet President Harley.

He had rejected every single time for Sky but he got an invite card to call her out for dinner.

"Reason for the dinner?" Sky's distant voice heard in the kitchen.

"Thank you. Carry on your work, I will let you know if anything." Sky hung up before sliding her mobile in Arlo's pocket.

Arlo pulled her to him as he asked. "What's wrong? Who is calling my wife for dinner?"

"President of Apollo international. According to Andy, it must be because of our competition in business."

Arlo had already heard that Harley was in the line to cross Apollo and secure the fourth position in this year. He knew, after the announcement of Harley technology, Harley would soar new heights.

"Going?" Arlo knew the answer but still asked.

"I'm not interested in business talk over dinner and not even interested in an old man. So what do you think?"

Arlo smiled and plated their lunch. He knew that. If she was really interested in such business talk, she would have accepted Sigma's proposal irrespective of the content of the mail.

Both had lunch with Ryan in his office room. Arlo who always heard Sky complimenting had to listen to his brother too.

Seeing them enjoy the lunch, his mood naturally lifted.
