SUGAR DATING WITH CEO - Chapter 161

161 Still Want To Hope

“Don’t you have any feelings for me at all? Is it really just a contract?” Kalea asked to make sure. Her heart was beating fast waiting for Arthur’s answer, but the man never responded. He still kept his mouth shut even though Arthur’s expression was slowly changing. An expression that made Kalea’s hopes drop even further. Arthur sighed, his gaze distracted even for a moment. A lazy gaze as if he wanted Kalea to realize that he did not want to answer the girl’s question.

“Didn’t we discuss this last night?” Arthur asked back.

“I just… wanted to make sure it was clearer,” Kalea replied in a soft voice. n0𝚟𝗲𝓛𝔲𝗌𝓫.𝓬0𝑚

“Just like I said yesterday. So there’s no need to bring it up again.”

Kalea’s hands clasped the material pants she was wearing, looking disappointed at Arthur who was indifferent and kept avoiding the subject. Arthur had always been a man who turned cold when Kalea asked about feelings of love.

Not long after, the waiter arrived with their order. The conversation was temporarily interrupted as they were busy eating their food.

Even though Arthur kept refusing and considered Kalea as a sugar baby, somehow Kalea still wanted to try to make him interested in her. Maybe this was Kalea’s chance, and actually she still found it hard to believe that Arthur had never really liked her in the slightest. Likes that were different from other women. Kalea wanted to be the only special woman in Arthur’s eyes.

After dinner, they returned to the penthouse. Arthur no longer left Kalea like he had the previous days. He kept his word to take responsibility for Kalea’s life and the baby she was carrying.

“Arthur, are you going to sleep late?” Kalea asked as she approached Arthur who was busy with his laptop in the workspace. Tonight Kalea was wearing pink satin lingerie with a kimono as an outer layer.

…..

Actually, Kalea does not often wear sleepwear this sexy, but somehow tonight she wanted to make Arthur unable to resist the temptation when looking at her beautiful body.

Unfortunately, Arthur did n’ot take his eyes off the laptop screen at all. His fingers were still busy dancing on the keyboard. This made Kalea pursed her lips in annoyance, but she could not disturb Arthur who had not finished his work.

“Would you like some coffee?” Kalea offered one last time before heading out of the room.

“No need, Lea. I’ll be done soon. You can also go to bed first,” Arthur’s reply sounded cold to Kalea’s ears, not even looking at Kalea at all.

Kalea’s face became more and more bent, very annoyed at being ignored by Arthur. She turned to walk out of the room with a feeling of resentment. “Suit yourself,” she said as she closed the door a little tightly.

Blam!

And this time Arthur was surprised, his fingers stopped typing. Actually Arthur was not insensitive or stupid, he was well aware that what he had done earlier had definitely upset his sugar baby. Arthur leaned against the back of the chair, massaging his increasingly dizzy temples. Trying to rest his brain before continuing the work that was about to be done. The matter of Kalea, he would take care of at the end.

Kalea, on the other hand, returned to her room with her emotions running high. She stared at the stuffed penguin sitting sweetly on the bed. Her slender hands grabbed the doll and she immediately hit it to vent her frustration on Arthur. It was as if he was the one being persecuted.

“You bastard, a man with a heart of stone,” Kalea cursed angrily and was still hitting the lunatic doll despite her weakening strength.

And even though Arthur told her to go to bed first, Kalea could not do it. All she did was play with her cell phone, engrossed in the world of social media even though she was only a viewer without any intention of commenting on other people’s accounts. Her emotions were mixed, sometimes laughing, happy, sad, angry, everything happened in one night due to playing on the blue application.

Before she knew it, it was twelve o’clock at night and Arthur had returned to the room. Kalea immediately put down her cell phone and pulled up the blanket to cover half of her body up to her shoulders. Pretending to sleep so as not to talk to Arthur, her heart was still resentful of being ignored by the man. The bed was slowly getting heavier because there was an additional weight besides Kalea, which was none other than Arthur.

“Lea, are you asleep?” Arthur called, bringing his face a little closer to Kalea, while the girl tried not to be seen if she was actually still awake. “I know you haven’t.”

Arthur raised his eyebrows, and soon a low chuckle was heard. “Sorry, I seemed to be ignoring you.”

“Not seemed, but you did ignore me,” Kalea replied irritably but still with her back to Arthur and eyes still closed.

“That’s why I apologize. Am I forgiven?”

“….”

“Lea… it’s not good to be angry. It’ll affect my baby,” Arthur sulked as he shook Kalea’s shoulders so that she faced him.

“This is my baby.”

“I made them.”

Kalea’s eyebrows lowered even further, eventually turning to face Arthur. Waking up from her sleep, she punched him in the chest. “Stay away from me.”

Arthur restrained Kalea’s arm to stop hitting him, a faint grin etched on his handsome face. “Are you sure? I just let you get a little angry like a witch.”

“What?!”

“Want a hug?”

Kalea looked at Arthur sarcastically, she grabbed a penguin doll and gave it to Arthur. “You just hug this.”

“Are you sure you don’t want to be hugged by me all night?”

“You’re annoying!” Kalea took the doll again and changed positions. Now she was the one in the black man’s arms. Her face sank further into him, smelling Arthur’s natural body without any perfume. “By the way, Arthur.”

“Hm?”

“If your family finds out about my pregnancy, what will you do?” Kalea asked suddenly, successfully freezing Arthur’s body.

The hug was broken, Kalea looked up at Arthur with anxious expectation. Her heartbeat quickened as Arthur pushed a few strands of hair behind Kalea’s ear. Between being nervous about Arthur’s answer after this and the sweet gesture the man was making.

“Can we not discuss this for now? I really need some time,” Arthur pleaded with a bitter smile. “For now, isn’t it enough that I take responsibility and stay by your side?”

Falling in love with Arthur only added to her heartache. Her feelings were like a playground. More specifically, it was like a roller coaster, sometimes making her happy, but also not spared with disappointment. However, Kalea was stupidly addicted to the sensation. Kalea still wanted to be patient. If Arthur would never love her back, after this baby was born, she would leave Arthur’s life.
