074 A midnight bath

And as I passed Mr. Davidson's room I overheard his conversation with Mr. Abas if the reason Mr. Carllyss put a few of his men in the pine woods over the years, it was because he suspected that Mr. Davidson had something to do with the disappearance of his daughter about 16 years ago.

Hugo only wanted to open his eyes to the information he had always wanted about the ends of Mr. Carllyss always putting his people through his most desperate surveillance of the pine forests. Mike got it easy from a guy they didn't expect, and mike figured it out by accident.

But in other words, aleska, hearing this information, suddenly felt uneasy. All that information is jumbled up in his mind at the moment.

And anything is possible.

*****

"What does the disappearance of the carllyss daughter to dad have to do with it?

Even if they really suspected dad was behind their daughter, why would they investigate pine forests instead of looking directly at you?

Aleska's mind went on and on about what might have been.

Now aleska will have to get used to calling Mr. Davidson on daddy's line.

"Lord do we need to investigate this matter further" (Hugo)

"Of course, we have to find out about this and I don't want us going through the smallest piece of information" (aleska).

"Good Lord" (Hugo)

"Why even bother, let's just see if they really found her? Right then we'll also know what's going on "(mike's answer remains in a casual tone)

She can be so casual about a problem that can even make aleska look so frustrated.

"No, we can't sit here and just wait" (aleska sounds riled)

"Sir, what the hell is going on?"

(Hugo asked because seeing the old aleska's usually so quiet without any expression on his face other than a cold stare was now so inwardly agitated and strangely visible on his face.)

"No, you continue your work "(aleska)

"HMM well Sir" (Hugo)

Hugo is back on the couch next to mike. And now it's mike's turn to stand up to say his report to aleska.

"Sir, what's our next move on the people who started suing the Davidson corporation coperation? To be able to work with you, and the media is also insisting that Davidson coperation specifically inform on the matter?" (mike)

"For now let's see how the action will be taken by dad, whether he'll make a fair decision by acknowledging that I'm his son and CEO of unity resource group or that he'll make the opposite decision by saying nothing and indirectly protecting nam both his favorite son" (aleska)

"Sir, how could you predict the problem so clearly?"

Asked mike in a tone of amazement, as he himself had heard the same thing from Mr. Abas's mouth in person, his intellect formulating a business strategy for Mr. Davidson all along.

"How not, it's very obvious." (aleska)

"Sir I have also heard the same thing from Mr. Abas business strategist Mr. Davidson" (mike)

"It's good that when they think of the matter clearly, they only have one day left now, if they decide to stay quiet then everyone will begin to be impatient with Davidson coperation then everyone will start urging him. So we just need to take advantage of the situation. (aleska)

"So your master says that whatever decisions they make will be beneficial to us?" (mike)

"True," (aleska)

"Sir, if that's the case, you can also use this situation to be seen in close contact with them" (mike).

"What do you mean?" (aleska)

"Right, Sir, because miss ruby that time came with the carllyss to the feast of devano. So now everyone thinks that you also have a pretty close relationship with the family, so the longer the Davidson coperation confirms the problem to the media, the more people will think that you and miss ruby are indeed close enough to the carllyss and the one because you and miss ruby are the daughters of the Davidson family and have grown up under stepmother's pressure." (obviously mike)

"So you're saying we can use the media misconception that says if I get close to the carllyss family and not deny it one bit?" (aleska)

"Yes, Sir, and to make it easier for Hugo's work to investigate the family the way you wanted it to. Then you can establish a cooperational relationship with them, put some of our bodyguards in their company."

"Mike looks like you're no less than Mr. Abas's strategist Mr. Davidson."

"Thank you, Lord" (mike with a red face for being praised by aleska, for aleska is very rarely praised by a person's performance.)

It was getting late, and Hugo and mike had also left aleska's room about an hour ago, but aleska was still sitting on the chair behind his desk.

"Ah, I have to go to bed, too" aleska looked at the clock on her wrist and said.

"Perhaps ruby is asleep too" aleska quickly got up and left her study and walked slowly toward her room.

Aleska carefully opened her room so she wouldn't build a ruby.

And as usual the girl was not disturbed from her sleep by the presence of aleska.

Aleska was uncomfortable because her body felt sticky, and she decided to bathe first before bed.

Because ruby had gone to bed so aleska casually took off her clothes and shirtless walked toward the bathroom.

The sound of water coming from the bathroom was so clear that the girl lying soundly on the bed woke up from her sleep.

Ruby wiped her eyes, trying to regain her senses,

Ruby slowly sat down from her bed and noticed the atmosphere around her, she saw the clothes aleska had on the floor earlier today, ruby looked in the bathroom, and spoke to herself.

"Is he taking a shower this late at night?

sambil bagun dari tempat tidur memungut baju aleska yang berserakan di lantai.

saat ruby menunduk dia tiba tiba melihat kaki seseorang yang tepat berada di depannya. ruby mengangkat kepalanya melihat ke atas ke arah wajah orang yang memiliki kaki itu.
