Sugar Dating with CEO

190 Kicked Out

“Lea? What’s going on?” The heavy, distinctive voice that Kalea recognized came from the side. Kai was there with a confused look.

Kalea immediately ran to Kai and hid behind him. Arthur frowned, staring at Kai with dislike. To which, Kai did the same. Kalea held Kai’s arm tightly, Kai could feel that the girl was scared.

Arthur changed his face from annoyed to smiling sweetly. “Sir, can you give me some time to just talk to Lea? Because it’s important,” he asked politely.

Kai glanced at Kalea first, and the girl hid her face even more behind Kai. “I’m sorry, but it looks like she doesn’t want to talk to you either,” Kai refused with a sweet smile that was not inferior to Arthur’s. “If I may know, what is your relationship with Lea?”

Arthur flinched, suddenly not knowing how to answer such a simple question. What was his relationship with Kalea? Kalea was his sugar baby, but it would be ridiculous to tell a country boy like the one in front of him right now. Did Kai even know what a sugar baby was? A lover? It would be even crazier if he answered like that.

“Sorry, but it’s none of your business who I am to Lea. But the girl who is behind you now has left everything in the city without saying anything and now I’m picking her up. So please let me talk to her,” Arthur said now no longer asking politely but more like demanding.

“Sir, my question is not difficult. After all, there must be a reason why Lea ran away and doesn’t even want to see you anymore. Why are you being so pushy?” Kai retorted not to be outdone. He was already too upset with Arthur, this was the man Kalea loved and made her pregnant with his child. If he had not used common sense, he would have punched this handsome man in the face.

Arthur sighed heavily, reluctant to get into a long argument since he had only come to meet the sugar baby. He glanced at Kalea who still remained behind the man in red. “Lea,” Arthur called again. However, Kalea remained silent, not responding at all.

“You’d better go, sir,” Kai shooed her away.

.....

“Lea, please. We have to talk, there must be some misunderstanding here, I-”

“Go home. Our business is done,” Kalea finally cut her voice back. Although she still did not look at Arthur.

“Huh? Since when did we-”

“Sir, you’d better leave before I call the village chief and the villagers to chase you away,” Kai interrupted which immediately made Arthur unable to resist. It would be crazy if he was paraded by the villagers. Arthur still had shame, and he did not have any malicious intentions in the first place.

The man with the mole under his eye had no choice but to leave. It would be a lie if he did not feel hurt when he was chased away by Kalea, even the girl completely avoided eye contact with him. Arthur had not heard all the details about Kalea’s sudden departure. He wanted to hear it directly from Kalea’s lips, but the girl locked her mouth tightly.

Arthur went limp, his visit completely fruitless. Even so, he was relieved that Kalea was okay. He smiled bitterly and said, “Then I’m going home. You should know, I’ve been looking for you like I was going crazy. I’m really happy that I finally found you especially since you seem to be doing well.”

Kalea did not respond, turning her gaze in another direction. She looked uncomfortable and wanted Arthur out of her way. That request granted, Arthur did leave. Kalea still did not turn her head let alone turn back to at least stare at Arthur’s fading back. As for Kai, he saw the man Kalea loved get into the car and drive back to where he came from. Kai glanced at Kalea who was still holding his arm, the trembling of that hand had not disappeared. Suddenly he was surprised when Kalea slumped to the floor.

“Lea!” he called frantically trying to wake the girl up again.

However, Kalea did not even have the energy to do so. She clutched her chest, her breathing ragged because her heart was beating so fast and felt tight. Her face looked pale, the tears that she had been holding back with all her might were finally dripping down her cheeks. Seeing that of course Kai panicked even more, not expecting that the arrival of the man had really shaken Kalea to this extent.

“Let’s go inside first,” Kai asked, wrapping Kalea’s arm around his shoulder, lifting her up so she could enter the house.

Kai sat the girl on the living room sofa and then went to the kitchen to get some drinking water to calm Kalea down even a little. Kalea closed her eyes, trying to control herself, she held both hands that had not stopped shaking. She shouldn’t have been this panicked to see Arthur coming, because he would find her sooner or later.

However, when she was actually confronted with the incident directly, it was not as easy as she thought.

“Drink first,” Kai said as he offered a glass of cold water. Kalea accepted and immediately gulped it down. Kai didn’t ask many questions, he understood the situation was still not possible because Kalea was still in a state of panic. He kept quietly watching even though in his heart he was very worried.

“Arthur was really looking for me, he came here, Kai,” Kalea finally opened her voice. And Kai finally knew what the man’s name was. Because before, Kalea didn’t mention his name at all. “What should I do now? Why does he have to come again? I’m just a burden to him,” Kalea whispered, the look in her eyes looked as hurt as Kai saw in the man named Arthur. “I’m sure after this he will come again. Arthur is not a man who gives up easily.”

Kai held Kalea’s hand, trying to give the girl strength through touch. “Lea, calm down. I’m by your side, you don’t have to think about him anymore. I won’t let him get away with anything to you either,” Kai said firmly and very convincingly.

Kalea only smiled slightly, and then she looked down. Her hand was still held by Kai. The man’s warm touch, Kai always gave her warmth through the man’s soothing nature. “Thank you, Kai. For always being there for me.”

Kalea was a little confused when Kai released his hand grip on her, but it turned out that Kai was now hugging her. Giving her a touch that was more than a handshake. Miraculously, everything that made Kalea panic earlier seemed to disappear somewhere.

“Never stop believing that there are still many good men in this world. Lea, I don’t really know about that guy named Arthur, but I won’t make you hurt like what he did to you,” Kai said and then released the hug. Looking at Kalea’s hazel eyes that glistened with tears. Beautiful, Kalea was always beautiful in any condition. His hand moved to wipe the tear marks on Kalea’s smooth cheeks. Truly, he had fallen deeply in love with this girl.

Kalea closed her eyes, enjoying what Kai was doing. She was really comfortable, Kai’s voice that was like a melody for her was able to make Kalea become calmer. Kalea did not want to think about Arthur all the time, she wanted to hate that man to the core. However, in the bottom of her heart, when Arthur came, there was a little bit of joy that he actually came to see her.

Stupid, stupid Kalea. Kalea was sick of herself. She did not want to fall into the same mistakes. Making Arthur think she was a woman with no self-respect. She had heard very clearly when Arthur had talked about her at the club that night. Kalea was comfortable living in the village, with Kai and the villagers who were so kind to her.

Suddenly Kalea realized that she could not stay comfortable for too long. She did not know what Arthur would do next. Maybe he would force her to return to the city.

“Lea,” Kai called, making Kalea open her eyes. Her hazel eyes now met Kai’s emerald ones. “I’m really serious about me wanting to be responsible for this baby.”

“Kai... please give me some time, okay? I still can’t let you who has nothing to do with it suddenly have to guarantee this child’s life,” Kalea replied still feeling bad and would feel very guilty to Kai if she did.

“I love you, I have no problem with that at all, Lea.”

“But it’s not as easy as you think. Please ....”

Kai seemed to realize, he immediately grasped both of Kalea’s hands. “Sorry, I forced you again.”

Kalea was only silent seeing Kai who felt so guilty. Actually, she could understand why Kai suddenly forced her more. Maybe because Arthur who came back made Kai’s existence threatened. That was only a possibility, and it was not necessarily like that.
