Chapter 5 - The Truth Behind The Smile

"I must be out of my mind! Why is this woman always on my mind?"

Aaron just woke up from his daydream when he heard a vibration coming from his cell phone. On the screen of his phone was the name of the mother who was calling him at the moment. Aaron couldn't help but have to accept it, because it was an order that his mother always told him to never refuse his calls, no matter how busy Aaron was when his mother called him.

"Hello, Ma."

"[Aaron, why did you take so long to pick up mama's phone? Where Are you now? Didn't you come back from out of town two days ago?]"

"I'm on my way, Mom. There's no way I'm getting calls while I'm driving."

"[Loh? Where is Mr. Burhan? Why didn't he drive you?]"

"Aaron is an adult. So, it's impossible for Aaron to continue to be driven every time Aaron wants to leave."

"[If you feel like you've grown up, you should have gotten married. Think about marriage, not work!]"

Aaron was very excited about the wedding. Aaron repeatedly told his mother that he was still not ready for marriage, but as if mom and her family turned a deaf ear to his desire. One of the reasons was reluctant to visit his mother even though the distance between his apartment and his parents ' house was quite close, Yes because his mother who did not break up urged him about marriage.

"Oh my God, Aaron! You are mom and dad's only child. The sole heir of the Bonnie family as well as a candidate for president of the Rothy Group. If you are 29 years old and you are not ready to get married, then how long will you be ready to get married?] "Louise was a little angry at her only son. He thought, Aaron had too many reasons to refuse the matchmaking he had always offered.

"Mom, sorry. I've arrived at the Office. I have a lot of work to finish soon. We'll catch up later."Said Aaron, who then hung up the phone from his mom.

Aaron paused for a moment and took a deep breath. Again, he returned to thinking about Jodie who continued to be in his mind without ever asking.

"What's wrong with me? Why would I want to see that girl again?"

"It feels like someone has blocked and left a lot of questions from a brief meeting between me and the woman a few days ago."

"But I can't even see him. Because it was I who had asked him to consider everything that had happened between us to be forgotten."

Meanwhile, Ainsley bravely comes to the residence of Aaron's parents ' house. Instead of the excuse of wanting to give a fruit parcel and a bouquet of Louise's favorite flowers. In fact, Ainsley's main goal is to get close to his mother Aaron, so that he can get the heart of his boss.

Ainsley came in a black dress. All the things attached to his body were very expensive branded items. To get the maximum beautiful appearance, Ainsley is willing to spend a lot of money and also his time to go to the salon before he pays a visit to Louise's House. Ainsley's efforts were not in vain, Louise was fascinated by Ainsley's appearance and she immediately gave compliments to the young woman.

"You are beautiful, Ainsley."

"Thank you, Aunt." He replied, with a sweet smile. "Auntie is also beautiful."

"By the way, thank you for the fruits and also the bouquet of flowers you gave to Auntie. This must be your own initiative. Because how could Aaron want to give Aunt flowers if not told by his father."

"Yes, aunt. I know that you love lilies, so I gave these lilies to you. Let aunt always good mood."

"Hem..., right. I'm in a bad Mood because of Aaron. You know that Aaron always refused the arranged marriage that I asked him for. I don't know what Aaron wants about women. Aunt could not understand herself either. In fact, he was her only son."Louise shook her head in surprise at every thought of her son's behavior.

"Take it easy, Aunty."

"Oh yes, where are your parents? Sometimes you want to meet your parents."

Ainsley was stunned by the question. She always tried to hide the figure of her mother who had only worked as ART in a luxurious house that Ainsley did not know where her mother worked.

"My parents live abroad, aunt. Daddy and mommy took care of their fashion business for a long time."

"Oh, I see. Your parents have company?"

"Yes, aunt."

"Your parents have company. Then, why would you want to work as a secretary for Aaron?"

"I want to be alone, Auntie. I don't want to depend on my parents ' wealth. After all, I want to have work experience before I hold my parents ' Company myself."

"Hello to you, Ainsley. Your thinking is very mature. In fact, Aaron just lost his maturity with you in thinking about the future."

Ainsley smiles back with the sweet compliment Louise gave her.

"Let's talk in the back garden." Louise took Ainsley. The two of them walked together to the backyard of the House.

The beautiful view from the vastness of the Hill grass that is there is very soothing to the eyes. The two women sat together for a cup of hot tea and a piece of cake, which had just been delivered by an ART.

When Ainsley was about to sip the warm tea that ART had just served, both of Ainsley's eyeballs immediately enlarged. What's not, he was surprised by ART who delivered drinks and cake for him and Louise, which turned out to be ART's figure is Ann, his own biological mother.

Ainsley coughed when she saw her mother who worked at Aaron's parents ' house, the man who had been her target to be able to marry her.

Ann was no less surprised when she realized the existence of her daughter in her employer's House.

"What is it, Ainsley?"Asked Louise.

"It's all right, Aunty." Ainsley got nervous. At first glance he glanced at his mother. She desperately hoped her mother wouldn't tell her about their relationship, which Ainsley had struggled with by lying about her social status.

Ainsley signaled to her mother through the movement of her eyes. Ann was immediately able to catch the intention of the gesture that her biological daughter gave her.

"Ainsley, if daddy and mommy come to Indonesia, please tell your aunt. You see, Aunt Wants To Know Your parents, so you can get along."

"Yes, aunt."

Ainsley is driven mad after finding out where her mother works. His heart couldn't stop beating as long as he was in the House.
