Chapter 1359 Fair Person

Chapter 1359 Fair Person

Cloe went out but before she could go back to her own office, she had to deal with some work. By the time she was done, it was already two hours later. She checked the time and then called Xiang Wai.

"Hello! Who is it?" came Xiang Wai's voice from the other side.

"You didn't save my number?" asked Cloe with a bit of anger that was hard to ignore in her voice right now.

Xiang Wai pushed her phone away from her ear and looked at the screen. Seeing the caller ID, she cleared her throat, "Oh, if it isn't the closest and most important asset of Raelle Xiang. How can I help you, Miss Cloe?"

"You recognized my voice?" asked Cloe.

"I have your number saved," answered Xiang Wai. "Why are you so ticked off over something so small? Anyway, why are you calling me right now? I didn't think we were close enough to call each other."

"I got a yes," told Cloe proudly. "I wanted to tell you how successful my proposal was."

Xiang Wai pursed her lips and asked, "Did you call to show off? I did not expect that from you."

"I'm not calling for that," said Cloe. "I'm calling to give you a sense of urgency. We bought the rings together. You're way behind me right now. Get things done. Your sister said she won't go celebrating my engagement unless and until you also get a yes."

"Raelle said that?" asked Xiang Wai looking particularly touched and warm.

Cloe rolled her eyes since Xiang Wai couldn't see her anyway on the phone call. But she still had to burst this bubble as she said, "Raelle Xiang isn't that nice. She just doesn't want to waste her time celebrating the same thing twice. So, she wants you to be done as well. That way we three can go to celebrate together."

Xiang Wai sighed, "You could have let me stay in my bubble."

"Can't do. My Chief says reality checks are necessary in life. They keep you grounded and humble in life."

"Why didn't you tell me that your sister also succeeded in her proposal? I almost made a fool of myself rubbing it in. It's just that I'm thick skinned enough by now to not feel it anymore."

"Who succeeded?" asked Raelle.

"Wai!"

"She also got a yes?"

"Apparently," replied Cloe. "Wait! You didn't know?"

"Nope!"

"You should know that considering you guys live right next to each other. Why are you always so behind the trends?"

"I'm the trend! Why should I follow others?" asked Raelle. "Besides, she had gone to the military academy after we came back from the ancestral home. She had to sign in to her new job and take over her duties. Even though there hadn't been new students added, but there are still some things for her to do as the new instructor of the academy. So, it's not odd that I don't know about her life affairs. More so because I am not interested. And I don't care either!"

Cloe smiled widely when she heard that as if her wounded heart was finally soothed with those words. Seeing her strange smile, Raelle paused.

"What's up with that smile now?"

"I'm just happy," replied Cloe.

"Why?"

"Why wouldn't I be happy? I should be happy, no? Knowing that you don't treat me any different from your sister. We both have the same status in your life. You don't give a damn about what we are going through."

"I am a very fair person," was Raelle's answer to that.
