Lazily Yours.
Chapter 499: Archy
Aden Shen leaned against his chair while massaging his temple. A loud sigh escaped his lips.
"Boss…"
He could hear his assistant's voice just outside of his office. "What?" he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. 'Relax,' he thought.
"Well… Miss Aya has been calling since this morning."
"And?" The mention of his sister's name made him frown.
"He called again now."
"And?"
"She said she wants to talk to you."
"Yeah… put her through." He opened his phone and received the call that his assistant forwarded.
"What the hell?"
"Is that how you greet your elder brother?" Aden adjusted his convertible chair. Working with a chair that he could turn into a bed anytime is divine.
"Come home." Aya's voice sounded like steel.
"No."
"Come home!"
"I'm busy."
"Hah… let me guess. You are lazily slouching right now!"
"You are right. You are very smart indeed."
"Stop it. It won't work this time."
"Heh…"
"Elder brother… wherever you are… come home and do your job!"
"No can do."
"Elder brother!"
"I'm busy."
"Busy slouching!?"
"I'm not slouching. I'm peacefully lying down with some wine next to me." He faked a loud sigh. "But your voice is just stressing me out."
"You — How could you say that? The company…"
"Is going to work without me. After all, you are there. Ah… I should talk to mother about this. Why did she have to make me the COO when you are very capable?"
"Brother…"
"I'm not going home."
"But— "
"No buts! I am not going home."
For a few seconds, there was only silence on the other line. Until he heard someone sobbed.
Almost immediately, Aden's face changed. He sat up. "Did something happen?" His lips twisted into an angry frown. "Who made you cry?"
"Aya?"
"I need to go back. I will call you later."
Aya didn't wait for her brother to say something as she ended the call.
"Aya?" Aden's face turned darker. "What the hell?" Aden shook his head before calling his assistant. "Sari!"
"Boss?"
"Prepare the plane. We are going home."
"Ah? Then what about Young Master Ye?"
"Ah… tell him to screw himself. Aya is crying I have my priorities."
"But sir… Young Master Ye needed your help to…"
"Meh... What brat is really useless. He is older than me and the future king of this country and yet he is asking for my help with such trivial things. Tell him to get married and let his wife help him."
"Uh… Sir… how could I say that to a prince?"
"Ah, right?" Aden grabbed his dark gray coat and put it on. However, just as he was about to go out of his office, another one of his men, arrive.
"Sir, we have an emergency."
"Tureis! How could you come in without even knocking?" Sari's deep voice echoed inside his office.
"Sorry Brother Sari, but this is really an emergency."
"What is it?"
"A woman is asking to see the in charge."
"A woman?"
"Yes, sir."
Sari immediately walked towards his twin brother, who was wearing an all-white suit, the exact opposite of Sari's all-black clothes. "Tureis, aren't you the one in charge of this store? What's this for? Do you think anyone can just talk to the boss?"
"Ah!? Right! I am in charge, but this woman is different. She knows that I am not in charge."
"Did she tell you who she was?" Aden calmly asked. He poured another wine into his glass and started twirling it in his hands.
"Ah, yes. She said her name is… Gabi."
"Gabi?"
"Yes, sir."
"Gabi who?"
"She just said her name is Gabi."
Aden sighed. "Tureis you are acting like this again. Is this Gabi pretty?"
"Ah? What? No… no. Not at all, boss. She had pink hair."
"Gabi with pink hair."
"Yes, boss."
"And she said she needs to see me?"
"Yes, she knows that you are Archy."
"Ah. Did she say why she wanted to see me?" Aden asked. He walked towards the nervous Tureis who always acts like a hormonal teenager around pretty women. "Tureis? What did she say?"
"She… uh… she smiled at me."
*PAK*
Unable to restrain himself, Sari smacked his twin brother's head. "Boss… let me take care of this man."
Seeing the twins about to start fighting again, Aden shook his head.
"Ah, boss she also said that this is about the Sealey Family and that you would understand it once you see her."
Sealey family? Almost immediately, Aden's face changed. The very reason why he had been stuck in this hellhole is because of that damn crown prince who was asking for his help. And that thing had something to do with the Sealey Family.
Just who the hell is this woman?
"Alright, I will see her. You two… go at the back. We will go back to Xu Country after this."
Aden walked towards the elevator that would take him towards the Bobo Jewelry store just above this underground facility. He then walked inside the VVIP room and just as he expected, a woman wearing a white asymmetrical white shirt paired with some high waist denim shorts.
'A kid?'
"The woman looked really beautiful with her pink bob and pale skin. But she looked like a skinny teenager.
"You are Gabi the Pink Haired woman?" He opened his suit and sat opposite the woman.
"And you are Archy?" she lifted one of her beautifully crafted brows.
"You want to talk to me?" Questions that have been answered with questions. Leaning back, Archy smirked inwardly. "What would a little girl like you want with a man like me?" he asked.
"I am no longer a kid."
Aden's eyes brightened. "You look like one."
"Stop wasting my time. Please tell your boss that I want to meet him."
"Huh?"
"I know you are not Archy."
"Huh???"
"Archy is an old guy."
This woman...
Aden frowned. "Who told you that I am not Archy?"
"How could someone in his twenties run an international information guild like Bobo Jewelry Store?" she asked.
But instead of getting mad, Aden smiled at her. "How could a teenager like you know about the real nature of my business?"
