Aloof CEO's; Charming Secretary

She trusted him wholeheartedly so when he said it, she knew he will do as he says. So she fell asleep in his arms.

Arlo didn't sleep, he thought about how they were and how much they have changed in just a year. On Saturday, it would be a year when he first saw her.

Despite being frightened by the surroundings, she saw his uneasiness and tried to help him.

In the process, she didn't even care about herself that she got cut until she was told. He wasn't sure whether she fainted seeing blood or fainted due to blood loss, he was still calming his mind from the Phonophobia of bullets when he saw rows of soldiers take her out.

He had checked all the injured list but there were no names as Sky or Harley.

He checked every military family linking to name Harley but he found nothing. He then decided to sketch and asked Ryan to do the search.

Even though he knew she couldn't be a simple person as military troop fetched her, he wished she could be just a simple girl who wouldn't run beyond rich.

Even if she likes him for his looks, he wanted her to stay by his side. But her identity became so complex that he couldn't understand why he felt so much pain in his heart. He mercilessly ordered Ryan but thankfully Olivia saved on time.

Even if they tried, he was sure it would be a tough job to ruin Harley and still David and Sky would live happily without the so-called social status and money.

If she was a simple girl, he could have used hundreds of methods to make her stay by his side but it was so special that he didn't know how to contact her either.

If she could turn down a proposal from Sigma, he was sure she wasn't someone to run behind money or success. Because he had used the same simple method to bring down many business companies.

He had given up on his idea until he got the call from Jai about Sky. He reacted so fast that time, he didn't even think before running out of the meeting room to the helipad as he called the hospital personally and flew to the hospital.

Even though he decided to stay by her side abandoning Sigma, he was happy how everything progressed.

The only thing he regretted was that he thought she would be safe in Country S. If he was alert with his men around her, she wouldn't have kidnapped and withstood the mental torture for a whole day.

But what he got to know more about her was, instead of behaving weakly in the situation, she holds down the fear first and she would fight with the situation before breaking down unless she doesn't have to be strong anymore.

He looked at Sky who was sleeping in his arms like a harmless little delicate girl. He couldn't believe she could break bones of those men by her self created weapon and her limbs.

When it was time for her to leave, instead of waking her up, he carried her to the car and both settled in the back seat.

Due to noise, she woke up. But he again coaxed her sleep as he heard her mumble, "I just came now."

He smiled resignedly. Instead of the VIP route she usually takes, he took her in the other route which was only used by few higher-level people. Clear free corridor.

His people had already arranged everything hence he didn't take him long to lay her on the bed of her jet. He left after making sure she was comfortable. He gave some instructions attendants before getting off the jet.

After landing in Country A, Sky called Jai to inform she was on the way to the office. Since Sam knew, he picked her from the Airport.

She wanted to dig a hole for herself to hide in hearing him tease all the way to the Harley corporation. She called Arlo when she reached Harley corporation.

She thought he would be asleep but she didn't know he was awake all night and relaxed when he got to know she reached safely.

"Don't be impulsive again. Health is more important." Arlo said after talking for some time.

"Impulse? Hello! I wanted to beat you up from the morning hence I came. Do I look like one to act on impulse?" Sky responded as she entered her floor.

Arlo chuckled on the other end before teasing, "So Ms.President missed me from the morning."

"Arlo! I said I wanted to beat you up." Sky said as her face flushed.

Andy who had just exited the elevator heard it and furrowed his brows. 'Secretary Arlo S?'

He couldn't understand it properly. Her voice wasn't cold as it used to be in office. Instead, it sounded playful with a hint of bashfulness.

He was still thinking when Sky entered inside. She handled one more teasing session before getting fresh and got back to work.

Arlo finished Harley's works before he went to inspection at Sigma. He generally went through everything and returned to villa sooner in the evening.

After coaxing the pampered and spoiled wife to sleep through a video call, he finished the rest of the work before going to bed.

The next day he didn't get a video call at Sky's lunchtime. Instead, it was a voice call for a short time saying Jai and Loran were there and she would be having lunch with them.

Night, she just made a short video call to ask general things and hung up saying she was going to Jai's room. He got very uncomfortable thinking she was ignoring him when she got Barton brothers.

He took his jet back at night and reached the Harley mansion early in the morning. He saw Jai alone jogging and greeted him with a nod before entering.

He thought Sky would be awake as it was time to jog but she was asleep.
