17 Chapter 17

Hylixe's POV

The favor doesn't stopped just like that. They keep on offering and offering me any kinds of foods and beverages. But I can't digest it all so the dinner was over.

"Hey, kitten!" Tharion called then scratches his nape

"What?" I turned back and replied

"Uhmm.. Take care" after he said that words, a blush appeared on his cheeks and before I knew that, Bryan took away Tharion

'Hmmmn, chicken is acting weird now'

After that, I decided to wash my face in the washroom. Not long before I went out, I heard a woman's voice calling me.

"Jin Hyluxe, I've never expecting you to be here too"

As I turned around, I saw the face of my aunt, Tiang Jin smiling at me.

'Psh, feeling close to me? No, in your face you monkey'

"Well, hello Mrs Tiang" I replied

'This woman, she secretly moving the company's assets and she allowed her children to bully my brother. This witch actually had the guts to face me?'

"Hyluxe you.. You used to call me---"

"Mrs Tiang, you already know why I can't have you as my family now. Do you already forgot what you did?" I stated

She began to clentch her fist as she shivers.

"M-My son, please don't listen to that nonsense news. Tabloids nowadays were writing some b*llsh!ts"she replied

She held my hands and look closer to me.

"You have to believe me! Eversince you lost your mom, I raised you as my own son" she said while her eyes were acconpanied by tears

'Excellent acting for an excellent drama. But I am not the soft-hearted Hyluxe that you know. I can't act as stupid and weak anymore! '

"If that's what you're gonna say, I'll be leaving now. I have some friends who were waiting for me" I said

Her eyes were enlarged acknowledging that my brother's aura seems to be different.

"I heard that you saved your friend Horus that was my adopted son. I've never told you of it but now you know. But I couldn't find a way to thank you" she said while wiping her teary eyes

I just gave her a perfect smile and chuckled.

"Oh, because of that? Don't worry madam. Family and friends should be helping each other. By the way, how is he?" I responsed

'In terms of acting skills, how could I lose?'

"Horus? He'll be fine in few days" she said

"Oh, that's great"

"Uhmm, I will let Horus accompany you to the company. Besides as you said, family helps each other right?"

'As expected to a money-eating monkey. She even wants Horus to join me.'

"Great! Seems that Hermes is quite busy these days so I need more workers"

"Oh, that's lovely sweetie~ I'll make sure that he'll listen to you"

'As if I will bring Horus to a decent work. Haha'

"He's about to get well soon. Do you want me to fetch him for you?"

"No, not necessary. He's with Hongmei so I guess he will contact you as soon as he get out"

"Okay, I'm looking forward to it"

I handwaved her as farewell's already been said. After that, I walked outside the restaurant. A silhouette appeared into my eyes and slowly forming a figure of a woman. As i thought, Jaeka is really in my front.

"Hey, handsome!" she greeted

I just snobbed her and look in opposite direction.

"Hey don't be rude." she added

"What do you want?" I asked

She walked closer to me and leaned her mouth to my ears.

"I've got you some wig and dress. Let's go shopping until the mall isn't closed" she whispered

'W-What??!'

"Why, you don't want it?" she said and pouted

"Ofcourse I want! Let's hurry up and better get going"

'Waaah, my heart! It's been a long time since I hanged out with Jaeka.

I put my wig and my dress. I looked in the mirror and wondering myself as a girl. I mean I don't have time to these stuffs but this time, I was to remember about being a girl.

Jaeka pulls me into different boutiques and clothes store. She always said that, "Here!" "Try it!" "It looks good on you!"

This excitement really apprehends me something really important. I am a girl but I don't actually grow up doing what other girls done. Since I went to Italy, mom introduce me to everyone as my brother not me. Jaeka was the only friend that can understands me right now.

When were about to look on another store, I saw Tharion picking and looking watches in a luxuriant watch store.

'Shoot, Tharion can't see me by this. Even though I had my wigs, I still looked like Hyluxe has a wig. I better keep myself from being spotted'

I quickly grabbed Jaeka's arms and brisk walked to avoid any contact with Tharion.

'Of all people, why him?!'

Jaeka stopped me and crossed her arms.

"What are your problem?" she said

"Tharion is here" I mouthed

I was about to turned and walk but a guy with a tuxedo sprang out of nowhere and cause me to bumped into him. As I looked up, I saw Tharion Lhexus' deadly gazed.

"I-I'm sorry" I said and quickly walked like nothing happened

Suddenly, he grabbed my arm and pull me into his chest.

'W-What is Tharion doing?'

Badump... Badump..

"You reminds me of someone" he said

He leaned into me and looked at me closer. I feel so uncomfortable so I kicked his balls, grab Jaeka with me and then ran faster than before.

'That was crazy!'
