The Unforgettable Story
Section 52

Miles looked at the photo. A beautiful woman who looks like Kirana's late mother, a brunette and blue-eyed man, a teenager who looks like the man with the same hair and eyes, and a little girl with brown hair and gray eyes. They are Kirana's family.

“Ratri Delaney Full Moon. Forty-four years. British nationals since sixteen years ago. Married to Brian Delaney. Forty eight years. British National. They have a pair of children. Edgar Christian Delaney, sixteen, and Phoebe Jasmine Delaney, twelve. Last returned to Indonesia six years ago at the funeral of both their parents.” Reynand introduced them.

“Is Kirana and her brother's relationship good?” Miles rubbed his chin.

“Seems not. I checked that his brother and his family went to Bali on the same day that both of their parents were buried. The flight they were on was in the afternoon. Too hasty to take a vacation when they have just experienced a period of grief. Kirana is alone living in her parents' house.” said Reynand. Miles nodded slowly.

“The other thing, Ratri has never returned since she was brought by her husband to his country and changed citizenship one year later. He only came home once, to attend the funeral of their parents. Her husband is not an ordinary employee who does not have the money to finance his family once a year or two back to Indonesia.” said Reynand confused.

“The family of Ratri's husband is a good person and loves charity.” he added. “There was no sign of them forcing Ratri to stay away from her family. Even on the photos of her wedding, both her husband's parents look familiar and friendly to her family.”

“Sweetest. They are just two brothers but can not be familiar.” muttered Miles slowly.

Furthermore, Reynand informs the educational history and assessment of people who have been close to him. In terms of health, he had never suffered from a severe illness or been hospitalized. He had many male friends but none of them ended up having a romantic relationship with him. Miles is confused because she is a nice and attractive woman. In his heart, he thanked all of them because he had given him full access to win Kirana's heart. He has no competition.

Reynand's report brightened his mood. He worked all day with great enthusiasm. On the way home, he spent a few minutes in the bathroom in his office to tidy up his appearance. At five o'clock, he came out of his room. He headed towards the floor where Kirana's office was located with the elevator. The officers who passed by him saluted and greeted him kindly. He smiled at them.

This one officer will not give similar respect to him, but it does not matter. He's not just a regular employee for Miles. In front of Kirana's room, there were no other employees. His assistant is also not there. Miles breathed a sigh of relief. Without knocking on the door, he entered the room. He saw his Juliett standing in front of him while putting his hands in front of his chest. Miles smiled.

“A, what,” The woman cleared her throat. “What are you doing here?”

“I offer you a ride in my simple car to drive you home.” Miles replied calmly.

“No need, Sir. Thank ye. I can go home by myself.” reject it. The woman just stood still in place, not trying to get away or get close.

“I insist. C'mon.” Miles extended his hand. Kirana took one step back.

“No, Sir.” reject it again. Miles frowned.

“Why not?” tanyakanya.

“I told you, I don't care what people say. You should also learn to do so.” Miles approached Kirana and grabbed her hand. He walked out of the room holding the woman's hand.

“Pak, you are my boss.” Kirana tries to pull her hand from Miles' grasp.

“I know.” he said agreed. Kirana pulled her hand even harder and freed herself from the man. Miles suddenly stopped and turned his head towards him.

“Please, stop acting more than that.” said the woman was upset.

“I don't understand.” Miles's forehead is wrinkled.

“I'm a new employee here. No one knows we've met before. If until anyone knows, do you know how difficult it is to explain that I was accepted in this company has nothing to do with our meeting six years ago?” That question again.

“I have a team that can prove that they chose you over the other three candidates purely because of your ability, not because I influenced them. Can you stop making me keep giving the same answer?” said Miles.

“Sorry, but I still want to go home alone.” said the woman insisted.

Miles' view softened. He smiled and grabbed the woman's hand again. Before Kirana could dodge, the man kissed her cheek. Only glimpses. He did not want to scare the woman every time he saw her.

“Good. I'll get to the elevator first. You came down after me.” said Miles who then left without waiting for Kirana's response.

Miles had to think of another strategy if he wanted to get that woman back. Kirana could not continue to reject him. Yes, the woman does not want any talk of personal or commitment between them, but she cannot continue to avoid it. They had already met and still felt the same spark. He knows a lot about his personal life and he wants that woman in his life after everything he heard from Reynand.

Maybe being intimate outside of bed makes it uncomfortable. When they first met, the atmosphere around them was clearly different from now. At that time they did not know each other, only two strangers having fun where no one knew them.

Ja. That's why his Juliett keeps offending other people. He was so frightened every time they were together and looked at the door or around them as if worried that someone else would see them. I don't know why he's so scared of people's views of him. He has to learn that he can't please everyone. There is only one person he needs to be happy about, and that is himself. If his Juliett likes Romeo, then why should he hold back just from worrying about what people say?

He will give her time to get used to their new relationship. A relationship between a man and a woman, not between a boss and his subordinates. But it can't be too long. Miles was already impatient to want the woman to fall in his arms again.
