Sugar Dating with CEO

170 Arthur Realized It

Arthur’s feet stepped into the penthouse, it had been a few days since he had come to see Kalea because of his work out of town. Once there, he did not see the bridge of his sugar baby’s nose. However, he did not think anything of it. He thought maybe Kalea was in the bathroom. He opened his black suit, took off his tie, and unbuttoned his shirt. Arthur sat on the side of the bed, for some reason he also felt that the penthouse was really quiet like it had been empty for a long time.

For almost two hours he was busy with his cell phone, Arthur began to feel strange because Kalea did not come out of the bathroom. Even though it was already twelve o’clock at night, Kalea should not be wandering around outside. Arthur put down his cell phone and walked towards the bathroom.

“Lea! Are you in there? I’ve been coming all day,” Arthur called, knocking on the door but there was no response from inside. Arthur’s forehead furrowed, he tried the doorknob and to his surprise the door opened, completely unlocked.

Arthur went into the bathroom, he did not find Kalea there at all. Not waiting long, he tried to find Kalea in all the rooms in the penthouse.

Nothing. The sugar baby was nowhere to be found.

“Where is she...,” Arthur muttered in panic. With hurried footsteps, he returned to the room and grabbed his cell phone. Trying to contact Kalea, he unexpectedly heard the distinctive ringing of the brunette’s cell phone very close by. Arthur looked at the object near the pillow where Kalea was sleeping.

Arthur picked up the cell phone, this was indeed Kalea’s cell phone. Why was the cell phone there when the owner was not? Arthur felt even worse. He looked back at the chat room between himself and Kalea, there was absolutely no message if Kalea had permission to go stay at her aunt’s house or anyone else. Besides, if she was staying there, she should not have left her cell phone here.

Arthur searched for the contacts of someone who might know Kalea’s whereabouts. His finger immediately pressed the call button, his feelings at this time were really chaotic. Because Kalea did not tell him anything at all.

[Hello?]

.....

“Zeline, hey. Is Lea with you?” asked Arthur in a hurry.

[Huh? Absolutely not. What’s wrong? Lea’s not at the penthouse?]

“I don’t know. Her cell phone is here.”

[Then where is she?]

“I don’t know, Zeline. You don’t know anything about her at all? Was she on campus earlier?”
[I’ve been absent for the past few days due to sickness. But it’s strange that Lea left her cell phone behind. She didn’t tell you anything?”]

“Absolutely not.”

[Wait, a minute. Haaah...?]

“What’s wrong? What’s wrong with you?”

[I just saw the news in the class group. They are gossiping about Lea being... what? She’s on leave?! Why didn’t her tell me at all?]

“Huh? Lea is on leave? Since when?”

[They said from two days ago. It’s so sudden. Damn it, you didn’t know about it at all?]

“I even just heard about it!”

[...did she run away?]

“Nonsense, don’t say that, Zeline,” Arthur snorted in annoyance, but he was actually starting to think in that direction. Arthur shook his hair roughly, walking over to Kalea’s wardrobe.

[Who knows? Maybe she was just too tired to deal with you, that’s why she left! Right, I’m sure of it!]

“Don’t joke, Zeline.”

[I’m not joking, damn it! This is all because of you. Lea didn’t even tell me anything at all.]



???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Arthur did not respond to Zeline who was nagging him because right now his focus was on the contents of Lea’s wardrobe which had decreased a little. Also, the suitcase that her sugar baby used to use was not in place.

[Arthur? Did you hear me?]

Arthur massaged his forehead, then sighed heavily. “Looks like she really left.”

[What?! What then?! Shit, you have to look for her, Arthur!]

“I know. Calm down, don’t panic like that.”

[How can I be calm? She’s pregnant with your child, you bastard! It’s all your fault, she also said she wanted to leave before but I didn’t expect her to actually do it. ....]

“I don’t understand what you mean at all. I still pay attention to her, there’s no way I’m being cold to her,” Arthur defended himself, he really did not understand why Kalea had to run away when he had said he would take responsibility for the girl’s pregnancy.

[You think that’s really what she wants?] You know she loves you! Lea must have been hurt a lot, you heartless jerk!]

Arthur could not think straight anymore. Kalea had left, not to mention hearing Zeline lay the blame on him. The emotions he had been holding back finally came out.

“Fuck! I know, Zeline! So stop blaming me, I’m thinking of what to do now!” Arthur snapped quite explosively. “If you want to help me, look for information on campus,” he continued and without waiting for Zeline’s response he immediately hung up the phone call.

Arthur threw his cell phone at the bed, shouting loudly in frustration. Arthur pushed his black hair back, his jaw hardened with piercing gray eyes.

“Where are you, Lea?”

The next day, Arthur sent some of his subordinates to look for Kalea’s whereabouts. He also asked the concierge to check the cctv where his sugar baby last appeared.

“Stop here,” Arthur ordered the officer. Arthur squinted, watching the cctv footage from the corner of the top floor exit. Kalea came out of the penthouse with a suitcase, just as Arthur had expected. However, after that there was no more information. Arthur also asked the staff in the apartment and no one knew where Kalea had gone.

“Damn it!” Arthur cursed, irritably, in front of his subordinates. His cell phone rang, and Arthur quickly picked it up. “Hello? How’s it going over there?”

[The mental rehabilitation center says Mrs. Freya Lovaata is no longer being treated there, Boss.]

“Then where is it now?”

[We’ve asked about it, but they won’t say because of Miss Kalea’s request.]

“Force it again.”

[We already did it again, Boss.]

“Do you understand what I’m saying? Don’t make me repeat myself a second time,” Arthur said in a very cold and intimidating tone.

[Yes, boss.]

Arthur immediately hung up the phone call, a smile mixed with annoyance was on his lips making his usually very friendly and sweet face now look creepy. “Looks like you’ve prepared everything well before running away from me, Lea.”
