Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

Chapter 182 - 182 ( Heartbeart )

Arthur saw Luan, Reihan, and Alfin who were walking towards Cleo's room. Arthur stopped their footsteps quickly.

"Why?" Alfin asked, not understanding then tried to get rid of Arthur's hand that wanted to block him.

Reihan stood from the corner, he could clearly see a husband and wife who he knew were hugging each other warmly through a glass door. Reihan understood quickly why Arthur had to prevent the three of them from entering.

"Shhh!"

Reihan immediately pointed in the direction he was looking at. Alfin and Luan compactly understood after seeing it. Then gave time for the two contract partners to let go of longing for each other. Alfin slightly frowned as he thought about that.

'Longing? Because of what? Haven't they been seeing each other for almost a day?'

Alfin interrupted his daydream. Meanwhile Luan asked about Cleo's condition.

"I've heard about those thugs being given the cruelest punishment by Harry. But what about her fate?" Luan pointed at Cleo. And Arthur didn't feel like he was in the best position to share the matter he had just heard.

Arthur then explained roughly.

"She was severely traumatized by the incident earlier and fainted from it. She has been successfully treated by the doctor who took care of her. Until she may need to do some further checks. I went out to call the doctor," said Arthur. 

In the room, Cleo was still clumsy with Harry's arms tightly embracing her.

Cleo had already allowed Harry to hug her freely. But she never asked Harry to hug her tight.

As if Harry didn't want to let go of that hug under any circumstances. Cleo then patted Harry on the back a few times.

"Hey! Aren't you afraid that my bones will be crushed because you hugged me so tightly?" Cleo asked with a really serious intention but Harry still didn't loosen his grip.

Harry said casually.

"If that happens I just need to call the best doctor from abroad to fix it,"

Cleo was increasingly moved to reply.

"Then what about my breathing which could have stopped due to the pressure. Are you also going to ask the doctor to give me artificial respiration?" asked Cleo who didn't mean to be weird but Harry replied with a smirk.

"Of course it's not necessary because I will be the one to give the artificial respiration directly," said Harry seriously, making Cleo feel amused to hear such meaningful words.

"Let me be like this for a while," said Harry, leaving Cleo unable to say anything but accept herself sinking into Harry's arms.

Cleo could even smell Harry's fragrant body to the point of feeling his muscles and broad chest. And she subconsciously took in her breath for a while until she held back her itching feeling to escape because a strange feeling suddenly enveloped her.

Cleo then asked back in disbelief.

"How long are you going to hug me?" asked Cleo with all of her racing heart.

Cleo then realized something. Touched Harry's chest with her wide eardrums. And heard the beating of his heart and she felt that was pumping irregularly as well as fast.

Cleo tilted her head to look at Harry.

"Why is your heart beating so fast? Are you still worried about what happened earlier?" Cleo asked with an innocent face. Harry looked at her tiredly.

"That's not the sound of my heart," Harry lazily answered. Cleo then checked again and confidently gave a reply.

"I can't be wrong. Because the sound of a heartbeat that I hear is your heartbeat. I heard it very clearly!" 

Harry then released his arm forcefully and then sat back in his chair. Cleo was looking at him in confusion.

"Why? Am I wrong?" Cleo continued to stare at Harry.

Harry looked back at her.

"Do you need to spoil our already good mood?" Harry still half annoyed and went back to keeping his heart rate normal.

"As you said, I'm still worried about what happened earlier and my heart is pumping faster than usual. Do you feel the same about yours too?" Harry looked directly at Cleo curiously.

Cleo paused for a moment then smiled.

She found the question was silly and strange. But Cleo's heart was in a better mood now. She asked about Arthur.

"Where's your friend? Wasn't he here earlier?" Cleo asked while looking for Arthur's figure in their room but he wasn't there.

Harry then answered the question while adjusting Cleo's pillow.

"He probably went out to call the doctor. Because you have to be questioned by a doctor regarding your psychological problems. Tell me if you don't want to, then I won't force you."

Harry tried not to make Cleo feel depressed and think too much. He then leaned Cleo back in her sleeping position.

"Sleep for a while until the doctor comes. I'll get you a drink," Harry immediately walked to the side of the table beside the bed to get a glass of water.

Then, his four friends who had before at outside the room was immediately gone inside, followed by doctor Angga. Harry was greeting them with a small nod.

"She just came to her senses, so please don't force her. You can ask a few questions if you need to," Harry gave the doctor a light warning.

Doctor Angga immediately came forward to check Cleo's condition. Checking her temperature to her by heart rate and even blood pressure. Doctor Angga immediately concluded that Cleo's current condition had stabilized.

Everyone seemed relieved. They also felt happy if Cleo was really okay. Some uninvited guests then appeared and came unexpectedly.

Cleo and Harry looked at them with puzzled looks.

"How did you all come here?" asked Harry who was actually already uncomfortable with the arrival of Luan, Alfin, and Reihan. Now it had to be added more with 4 additional guests that he deliberately didn't invite.

Cleo looked at Sofia, Christina, and Lily at the same time. Followed by Dirga who had followed behind. Dirga spontaneously immediately apologized to his boss.

"Sorry, Sir. I accidentally told them that Mi- I mean Mrs. Cleo was in the hospital when Mrs. Sofia came to the office to see you. They insisted on coming here."
