Aloof CEO's; Charming Secretary

620 She will manage herself

What he expected in the scary house happened in the jungle house. He was laughing his heart out looking at her clinging on to him as she screamed. 'Jungle house' was the most unrealistic out of two.

Funny incidents were when a fake phyton dropped near her face, she held and threw it away as she screamed. She dashed towards the exit when she stepped on a fake alligator and it's tail brushed her leg but she returned to him seeing a man in bear costumes.

Sky's face was bright red in embarrassment when they came out. Arlo's face was red due to laughing too much. Arlo had purposefully wasn't holding her hand to see how she would react and he enjoyed it thoroughly.

"You are so mean!" Sky pouted and went ahead leaving him to follow her.

"Sky!"

"I'm not talking to you. You were laughing at me."

.

.

They continued for a few more minutes.

"Okay! That's enough."

Sky faced him and walked backside, "Weren't you enjoying? Hearing me scream and getting... scared."

"Watch out!" He moved faster and pulled her to his arms before she could bump into a man.

"What's wrong?" Sky raised her head in his embrace but heard a different voice.

"President Smith!"

That voice carried a hint of surprise which made Sky turn but Arlo tightened his hands on her back and back of her head.

Arlo just gave a slight nod as a response.

He left Sky once the man left with the girl he came with. Sky thought he must be someone she doesn't have to meet hence she ignored it.

"What's the plan? Are we going back office?" Sky asked.

"Shopping!" Arlo said and took her to cloths shops. He picked clothes for her to try on and sat reviewing about dresses.

After two hours Sky was beaming. Not because of the clothes they bought. By seeing Arlo carrying all the shopping bags.

He could have asked his guards to come and carry them or to the men who were protecting them but he held seven bags in one hand and another handheld on to her hand.

"I know you are impressed. If you don't stop smiling, I will have to pluck men's eyes here."

Instead of stopping, Sky started chuckling and pulled his cheek before pecking on them. "You are so adorable."

Both went to a restaurant for dinner before going home.

After receiving a bag from Sky, Ryan started complaining, "Only you two enjoy and go shopping leaving me alone. Hmph. Grandmother! look at them, they forget me whenever they go out."

Sky chimed in, "I have a solution."

All looked at her curiously, "Let's find a girlfriend for Ryan."

Ryan froze. Arlo took Sky to their room after giving bags to David and Olivia.

Ryan was tortured by Olivia and David as he cursed Sky all the time.

Before he could open his mouth, Arlo dragged him towards the other side. Sky removed her other earpiece and continued her work out.

Ryan spoke after Arlo left him aside. He wanted to report it when he got to know yesterday night but he didn't disturb them.

"I got the news that few companies are trying to suppress Harley corporation in different fields. Shall I take action on them? Or how about I spread the news that Sigma Industries is with Harley corporation?"

Arlo glanced at Sky as he replied, "No! Except for her safety and identity no need to do anything else. The rest she will manage herself."

Seeing him leave, Ryan stopped him, "Hey! Won't she work too much if a problem arises or if they attack Harley Corporation?" Ryan couldn't understand his reasons.

Arlo knocked on his head, "Sky will throw ME and even YOU out when she gets to know. Her request after knowing I'm President Smith was not to interfere with the Harley corporation. She will ask for help if she needs it. If you don't want to stay here, you can take action."

Staying and talking with Sky every day, Ryan understood Sky to a certain level and it was expected from her. He even remembered how she went to town A thinking somebody helping her behind and she didn't want to take credits for somebody's work.

"Your wife is an Original piece. Anyway, I will keep track of it."

"Should we search a different masterpiece for you?" Arlo had just finished saying, Ryan ran away to save his life.

The trio left to the Sigma Industries after breakfast. Sky remotely handled two meetings and asked a few changes and went through the initial report of Clark's game and Peter's web application proposal.

For Peter's web application, she took an hour to study about it before she arranged a video conference to take his presentation. She orally approved after suggesting him a few more add on features that he accepted happily.

Arlo who heard one side semi-formal conversation in the kitchen asked. "Sky! You aren't treating them as employees but they are still your employees. Can you manage if you guys face conflicting state? Because that may ruin your friendship too."

Sky closed her laptop first before slipping herself between him and the cabinet.

"We are mature enough to sit and talk. I will comment after understanding. They listen to me and correct me if I am wrong. And more than me, they strive for perfection. They need freedom and their identities a secret, that I'm giving. So I'm sure they will be the best employees who I don't have to worry about."

Arlo hummed as he continued chopping.

Sky turned to him and asked gingerly wrapping her arms around his waist. "Will you mind if I ask about how Ryan and you started staying together? And why does he runs away hearing 'girlfriend'?... it's okay if you don't want to tell."

Arlo left the knife and made her sit next to a chopping board. "Haven't I told you that you don't have to think too much or be cautious about anything with me?"

Sky nodded, "I don't want to pick any sensitive topic."

Arlo pinched her nose, "Anything means anything. No need to categorize. Even If you kill someone or if you like someone, you can say or ask anything."

'Why everyone says as if I'll kill someone someday?'

"Oh!" Sky gave it a thought, "What If I like someone, what will you do?"
