Chapter 42: Seizing rights
Ayumi, who just nodded slowly, saw the silhouette of the burly body of a man who had just disappeared behind the door and made her feel very annoyed, but had to pretend to be normal. She reflexively made a fanning motion of her hand to vent her anger.
'Gosh, until the wedding comes, I have to act as cute as possible in front of that annoying Leo. What business was he actually looking for Arabella? Why not wait later when he comes down? Why do you have to go to the room at all?" Ayumi cursed, who is now starting to release her wardrobe after finding a dress that she thinks fits.
Meanwhile, Leonard, who was already outside the walk-in closet, was now staring intently at the bathroom door with his fists clenched.
"Did she purposely hide in the bathroom to avoid me?"
Leonard was now walking towards the exit and averted his eyes from the bathroom door.
"Luckily she didn't say anything to Ayumi because if she did, I'd really make her regret it!" He walked towards the door of the next room.
On the other hand, Arabella, who had attached her hearing to the door, wanted to hear the sound from outside the room, but couldn't hear anything at all.
'What's really going on outside? What does Leonard really want? Does he want to be angry with me again in front of Ayumi?" Arabella winced at the pain in her scalp.
The pain is now felt by her and she is seen massaging her head in front of the mirror in the bathroom.
Not only that, the pain at the top of her breasts was getting worse due to Leonard's actions, which bit her so hard that he wanted to scream, but couldn't because it would arouse Ayumi's suspicion.
Feeling very curious, now Arabella undid the top two buttons of her shirt and examined the top of her right breast which had been bitten by the man she hated so much. Her eyes were now perfectly rounded when she saw that part of it looked like it was torn apart until it turned red.
"No wonder it hurts so much. That bastard made him like this. Aaah... it hurts. Looks like I'll have to buy some ointment to treat that bastard's bite. Be patient, Arabella. After today, you'll never see that bastard again. ' Arabella muttered, now buttoning her shirt again.
Not wanting to see her face turning red from the effects of crying, Arabella now chooses to wash her face. Remove the crying marks and hope that her wrinkled face will turn out to be fresher.
A few minutes later, she walked out and at the same time saw the figure of a woman who seemed to be wearing a red knee-length dress with short sleeves and a ribbon at the collar. Seeing a woman who looks even more beautiful wearing expensive clothes, seems to make her feel like an ant near an elephant.
Of course she realized that if the woman in front of her came from a wealthy family and had a beautiful face, wearing anything would look perfect. Unlike her, only a poor and orphaned woman with a mediocre face, making her feel that she is not comparable to Ayumi.
"Wow ... that dress looks very fitting on you, Ayumi. You look even more beautiful." Show a smile as sweet as possible to hide your true feelings.
When Ayumi looked at Arabella, she frowned when she saw the red eyes of the woman who looked like she had just washed her face.
"You wash your face until your eyes are red. Did you get soap in your eyes?" Staring at the dressing table which currently looks nothing because she is looking for make-up equipment.
She reflexively pointed at the dressing table and turned to stare at the woman in front of her. "Where do you keep your cosmetics? There's no way you don't have any makeup on because I saw you wearing makeup earlier."
As Arabella was looking for an excuse to lie so that Ayumi wouldn't suspect her, suddenly an idea crossed her mind.
"Missed it at home because I was in a rush at the time. I put all my make-up kits in a small bag and it looks like they were left in the room. So, I used Aunty powder so I wouldn't look pale."
Ayumi reflex patted her forehead and shook her head knowing Arabella's carelessness.
"Gosh, even though it's important for women, but you forget about it. I'm going to get my bag in the car because there's make-up equipment there. I'll do my makeup in the car later. Oh yeah, Leo was looking for you. Go meet him I'll be waiting for you in the car. Just use my car when you go to the jewelery shops and boutiques."
Not coming because she wanted to run away immediately, now Arabella shook her head slowly. "I can't seem to come because I have an appointment with a friend. I have an acquaintance who lives in Jakarta and she said she wanted to meet her. Before I look for work, I will meet her first."
A look full of disappointment is now clearly visible on Ayumi's beautiful face because at first she thought she would cling to Arabella when she was out with Leonard.
"You can go later after coming with us. I want to ask your opinion, Arabella. So you should come because I don't accept rejection, okay!" Without waiting for an answer from Arabella, now Ayumi was walking towards the exit. Leaving the cousin of the man she was going to take advantage of.
When Arabella screamed to call Ayumi, but was completely ignored, of course she felt very disappointed and repeatedly stomped her foot.
"That woman is really very arrogant! How is it? Don't let my plan to escape fail because of Ayumi!" cursed Arabella who now feels very annoyed when dealing with people who always trample on their self-esteem and also take away their rights.
