Catalina said in a hurry. He looked back and his gaze accidentally met Sehan's gaze. It made his heart beat.
He had never met anyone like this. And that scared him.
"What?" Nick's brain isn't connected yet.
"My answer, do I have a fiancee?" Catalina repeated the question. It's really troublesome. Managing Tatiana's adoptive family alone was already quite troublesome. Now it only increases with the emergence of a man who claims to be his fiancee.
"Ah, that, sorry I forgot to say." Nick scratched his nape. "Tatiana has a fiancee. But you take it easy, they're not that close. So, you don't have to worry. You won't meet anytime soon." Tatiana is engaged to a man just to smooth over her adoptive parents' business. What kind of man he is, he never knows. Because Tatiana did not seem to be close to the man. He even thinks their relationship is worse than the enemy. That is, based on Tatiana's words, the man hated her very much.
Catalina. Won't we meet anytime soon? What kind of shit is this? "Fuck!" Catalina. He gripped his phone tightly until it was almost destroyed. It felt like he wanted to rip out Nick's fucking mouth that could only spit out trashy words. Who says they're not that close and won't meet anytime soon? "Now he's with me, Nick."
At the end of the call, Nick spouts his tea. "yourselves? Ba, how is that possible?" This time he stuttered.
"What is 'how is possible'? Basic useless." With those two sentences, Catalina ended the call. He felt calling Nick was useless. But in essence, Tatiana was not close to the man. It was not even impossible for that man to hate Tatiana. From his gaze, he was able to capture all of that hatred.
Catalina rolled her eyeballs before turning her back and walked towards the man sitting on the sofa with his book in his hand.
Catalina was crying in her heart. His book is valuable.
He carefully approached her, intending to take back her book in her hand and her bag on the sofa and then run away from this suspicious man.
Nick will be here soon. Ought to.
Catalina even considered leaving her poor book and leaving immediately, but the man's gaze was like stripping her naked. As if knowing what he was thinking, Sehan opened his voice, "Don't try to leave before answering my question." By not calculating the neglect that Catalina had done before was already profitable, still hoping to escape from it? In dreams.
Catalina averted her gaze, not daring to look at the man. He rubbed his neck. "Who wants to go? I'm not." Catalina had no idea how Tatiana could have this heartless fiancee. He's not like a fiancee. Rather than fiancee, the man was like a person who would obliterate his life for their engagement to end.
Waitaminute!
Eliminate life?
Catalina thought of something and her conclusion stopped at the possibility that this man was related to Tatiana's accident. It was not impossible for this man who possessed this power to harbor hatred and then stop the engagement by killing him. Also..
Catalina ventured to look at Sehan. Other than her beautiful face, the man's body was upright and the aura emanating from it was shrinking power. This man, is one of two possible culprits behind the accident.
This guy, it's worth a suspicion.
Sehan closed his book then his gaze fell on the slender figure standing in front of him. Wearing jeans and a plain shirt, his body curves perfectly. Her long hair that was left unraveled, beautifying her already beautiful face. Other than her different aura and innate nature, this girl did not seem like she had just woken up from a coma.
Although three weeks had already passed since the girl's awakening, Sehan did not expect that the person who woke up from a coma, could be a hundred and eighty degrees different from the previous character, with the previous innate.
Could that long sleep change that?
Sehan raised his eyebrows. "So you want to stay here?" tanyakanya. "All right, you can stay. Sit down and don't ruin the view." He gave a sharp look. And it's very intimidating.
If it was Tatiana, perhaps she had already cried at such a gaze. But it was Catalina. He was not easily intimidated even though honestly his hands were already wet from sweat.
Hearing what Sehan said, Catalina ran out of words. "What did you say? Ruin scenery? Me?" He pointed at himself. "You think I ruined the scene, do you? Can't you see how beautiful I am? Haish. shit." In the end Catalina could not say anything and chose to sit down obediently. He knew he could not win against this man.
First, the man was very rich. Evidently. Just look at his appearance and appearance. Second, he could not create a problem where he was sure he could not win. Seeing how Sehan intimidated, the man's strength could not possibly be defeated by a small actress like her.
Rather than fight something that would clearly lose, he chose to go where the river flow took him. In a hotel where there were many surveillance cameras, there was no way this man had blatantly killed him. At least, he is safe for now.
"Good," said Sehan. "Now answer me, can you read this book?"
"Ehm," Catalina cleared her throat. "Look, I can read it or not, it's none of your business." He spoke as graciously as possible, avoiding offending the man.
"It's none of my business? You sure?"
Eh? Catalina. "Don't you think so?" Nick said their relationship wasn't close. And yes, the man hated him. No. gabe. The man hates Tatiana. Because from the gaze that Sehan gave her at this moment, it had already changed from hatred to hostility.
"That's my business."
Catalina was silent for a moment before asking, "Why?"
"I'm your fiancee."
"Just because we're engaged doesn't mean you can force me to answer something, right?" Catalina chuckles. "That's the worst joke I've ever heard." He opened his phone and typed something about Tatiana's 'engagement'. But there's no information about that. Which means, the engagement, only they know.
"That sounds pretty reasonable" Sehan said. This is her first interaction with Tatiana since they got engaged a year ago. He disliked Tatiana because to him the girl was too weak and spoiled. The girl was always shy when she saw him even though her eyes did not lie if she liked him.
He had just finished a meeting with a senior official and was waiting for his assistant when he saw the girl reading a book in the lobby. He thought the girl looked familiar. Then he realizes that she is Tatiana Demaire, the girl he ordered to watch over.
He did not want to see her, but when he saw what she was doing, he was a little curious.
Reports about him mentioned how he acted very differently to how he was before the accident. But only now did Sehan understand when he saw it with his own eyes. However, he did not believe that one could just change. That damn girl must be playing pull with him.
Catalina breathed a sigh of relief. Good thing, at least this guy isn't as bad as he thought. This man can still be spoken to nicely and unlike how the novel portrays the main character of a man who is cruel, sharp and intimidating.
Although Catalina is not sure whether Sehan is the main male character or not, but he believes that Tatiana and Sehan's relationship is not as sweet as the matchmaking relationship he often reads. Seeing how Sehan behaved, it was impossible for such a man to love and not kill Tatiana alone to profit.
So, should he thank her?
Thankful, what to be grateful for? Meeting this man was a disaster.
Sehan took something from his bag and placed a document on the table. "Let's see if you're lying or not" he said. "Read the contents and tell me. Maybe I'll believe you can read a Russian book."
Catalina was willing to ignore him. But he hates being underestimated the most. Although the Russian language cannot be said to be very good, but it is really not bad. And he's very angry if someone says he's lying.
Catalina picked up her document angrily and reluctantly started reading it. Five minutes later he raised his face. So this guy is Sehan from the Geffrey Group?
Stared intently by Catalina, Sehan said, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"You're going to work with Mosinzhprekt?" Instead of answering Sehan's question, he asked something.
Sehan surprised. Mosinzhprekt is a Russian company that prepares business proposals, looking to partner with his company to enter the British market. The business proposal was written entirely in Russian, so how did this girl know?
Sehan could not even read it and had to read an English translation. Can she really read Russian?
Ignored, Catalina cleared her throat. "Ehm. I don't think it's a good idea to partner with Mosinzhprekt. If you are really interested in partnering with a Russian company, there are many other better options. Their flow of funds is not flowing in the right direction. Reportedly, their company is nearing bankruptcy and needs an injection of funds to cover the losses. If you work with them, fear you won't get the results you want." Catalina closes her documents and waits for a response from Sehan.
Sehan was surprised once again. "Where do you know that?"
"I read it on the internet" he replied. Catalina has been reading Russian news on the internet lately. Because there is a computer and Wifi, he likes to open anything he can see because there is no need to pay like when he uses a computer at the cafe. But, yes, he would not say that to Sehan.
Sehan looked at Catalina. His forehead wrinkled.
Seeing the strange look Sehan was giving, Catalina rubbed her nape. Was he too excited and made Sehan suspicious?
His body stiffened when he realized his mistake. How careless he is.
Damnit.
How'this?
What should he do now?
Not yet knowing how to solve this or get out of this problem, Nick shows up and saves her.
"Tatiana, let's go!"
