Aloof CEO's; Charming Secretary

554 Doll's Past 2

"Hello, Grampy!" She sat next to him and spoke. "Grampy! What was our age difference when I was born?"

"Forty-seven" He replied obediently.

"What is our age difference now?" Sky asked again. He laughed knowing what she was up to. "Forty-Seven"

"So I will be grownup for you when that forty-seven increases." Sky happily announced as she popped a candy inside her mouth and looked at Arlo.

"He is Arlo. Your Doll's husband." Her voice turned lower as she held grandfather's arm.

"Hello Grandfather!" Arlo greeted with a bow.

Grandfather's face turned stern and he scrutinized him top to toe and grunted in response.

Jai and Loran enjoyed the show sitting aside. Sky greeted George and Georgia in the meantime before sitting next to Old master Barton.

Sky signaled Arlo to sit and she heard her grandfather ask grumpily, "Doll! Did you marry him for his pretty face?"

Loran pursed his lips. Jai kept his cool. George and Georgia had left for their room purposefully. Arlo kept his expressionless face and nobody could understand what he was thinking.

"Grampy!" Sky knew grandfather was straightforward but she didn't want Arlo to misunderstand him. "It was because of grandmother."

He glanced at Sky before asking, "So that means you don't love him."

Jai's facial expression changed slightly as he controlled his smile. Sky turned to grandfather pouted without answering. Arlo couldn't see her face as her backhead was facing him after the question and he didn't hear anything.

Old master saw her face turning shades of red. He pursed his lips and looked at her brothers, "You two! Useless chaps! Take Doll to her room, she is tired due to travel."

Sky didn't disobey, "Grampy! Let Arlo get fresh then I will send him to you."

After glaring at Arlo, he agreed. Sky tugged Arlo and went towards upstairs with brothers.

But in midway, she returned to the living room and went behind Old master Barton. "Grampy! Do you think I will love pretty face? He is super talented and loves your Doll a lot."

He patted on her cheek and stood up. "I can say that seeing you go red. Send him to my room later."

Sky nodded bashfully and went upstairs. Sky had popped her second candy when she entered her room. Jai and Loran had left for their room.

She saw Arlo near the dressing table keeping his wristwatch. "Arlo! I have told grampy that you aren't just a pretty-faced husband."

Arlo faced her and saw her empty hands and her slightly muffled tone indicated second candy was in her mouth. "Where is candy?" He knew it wasn't shop-bought candy.

"You want candy?" Sky was confused, 'That's not important, is it?'

"I don't have any. I will get a few from grampy later."

Arlo hummed after releasing her and went towards the bathroom, "It's tasty. Who prepared it?"

Sky didn't reply to his question, "Theif! A big Shameless thief!"

She was dying from nervousness thinking what would be the opinions, Arlo and grandfather, about each other but the shamelessness of her husband reached a whole new level.

Seeing her blush, "Okay! I will return!" Sky wanted to flee but he was faster.

The candy was back in her mouth. "If you don't like it! I can take it back." Arlo whispered near her ear.

Sky covered her mouth instantly, "No, No! I like it. I like it. You go and get fresh."

He caressed her cheek as he spoke, "I didn't know you will like this way of feeding. I will work hard in the future."

Sky was stupified. How can you still look elegant saying such things? If she says, she didn't like it, he would again rob her mouth.

Arlo chuckled and went to the bathroom. He knew she was worried about them hence he teased her before going in.

Sky could only roll on the bed until he came out. After telling him to stay in the room, she got fresh and nagged him for sometime before taking him to Grandfather's room.

Seeing her sit in his room, Old Master Barton said, "Doll! I will not eat your husband. Leave now."

"Eat?" Sky glanced at Arlo controlling her smile. Arlo knew what she was thinking. Since he was in front of grandfather, he behaved well.

"Grampy! Don't be awake for a long time. Sleep early. I am going to Brother Jai's room." Sky said and went towards the exit, Arlo held her hand before saying, "Rest soon."

Sky nodded and left the two men in the room. As she said, she went to Jai's room with Loran and started talking for a long time.

Sky who would sleep off soon whenever Jai stroked her head for few minutes but she was wide awake.

Loran and Jai teased her for sometime before she fell asleep. Brothers made her sleep in her room and they went back to their room.

"Sit!" Old master Barton ordered Arlo pointing at the couch opposite him. Arlo sat down and faced him.

"Tell me about yourself." Old master commanded.

Arlo didn't hesitate and introduced himself, "I'm Arlo Smith. President and CEO of Sigma industries. And also working as Sky's secretary in Harley corporation. I lost my parents at a young age and I lived with Grandmother and a brother before shifting to the Harley Mansion."

Old master knew about him from Jai. He thought he might hide it from him too. "Why are you hiding it from Doll?"

"Because she hates the rich man."

"You are one of them."

"I will leave Sigma if she wants."

"So you give up on things easily."

"I can build one more Sigma but my wife is important."

"You think I will not tell her."

"You can! You will be preponing it."

"I can make her leave you."

"You will not. Sky's happiness is more important for you."

It was like a rapid-fire round. The topic circled around with his identity relating to Sky. At one point, Old master smirked at him.
