152 Sympathy
The Floyen, Geneva. 11.30 AM.
When Jack and Christian find out who is responsible for kidnapping Suri three years ago, Areez is busy protecting the Clarke family from the slander that someone is plotting against them. Successfully finding dozens of hoax articles that cornered all members of the Clarke family without exception made Areez challenged to uncover and find the mastermind behind it all.
“It’s really terrible.” Aldrich muttered under his breath as he saw Areez’s findings on his laptop screen.
Areez put his hands together on the table. “All of these horrific articles are so well-organized and ready to be released to the public, and if that were to happen then the Clarke family’s reputation would be at stake.”
“But this is just a hoax article that cannot be justified, so I don’t think the Clarke family will be affected,” said Aldrich again.
“Indeed, but not with the public. Jackson Clarke is a man who is so reckoned with in this country, out there must be a lot of business rivals who pretend to be good to him. They will definitely be happy with this news and will not waste this opportunity to bring down Jackson Clarke and his family.”
Aldrich was silent, the words Areez just said were true. Jackson Clarke’s business rivals will definitely not stand still when they get the chance to take down the man who owns Europe’s largest finance company. they will surely complicate matters and take great advantage of it.
“So what’s your plan? Do you want to share all of your findings with Jackson Clarke?” asked Aldrich again.
Ares shook his head slowly. “Not.”
.....
“Then? Are you going to work on your own again to sort this out?”
“Of course not, there’s no way I could do all that myself,” Areez replied with a smile.
“Speak clearly, damn it!! Don’t be half-hearted,” growled Aldrich, annoyed when he realized that Areez was teasing him.
Areez pursed her lips again. “I want to teach Suri to solve this problem.”
“WHAT??!!”
“Yes, I will involve Suri Mireya Clarke in taking care of all this. This is the only way I can get closer to her and get forgiveness from her,” Areez said confidently.
“Are you sure this will work?”
Areez pursed her lips. “Good luck and for that I ask for your help.”
“Help, what help?”
“Go to Suri and tell her there’s something important I want to tell her,” Areez answered with sparkling eyes. “Suri will surely hear you, Aldrich. She has always heard you.”
Gotcha..
Aldrich had expected that, Areez would definitely ask for his help to contact Suri. After taking a deep breath, Aldrich then walked out of Areez’s study to contact Suri. After a long search, they have finally found a place to work. A four-story building comfortable enough to start a new business in Europe, Areez was in a very good mood as his bottles of the best wine were almost here in Switzerland after a long sea voyage.
In the first and second attempts, Suri did not respond to Aldrich’s call and it was enough to make Aldrich worried, he was afraid that the number Suri he got from assistant Jack a few days ago was wrong. However, Aldrich’s worries disappeared when Suri suddenly made a callback, the girl seemed curious. Not wanting to make Suri wait long, finally Aldrich immediately received a video call from Suri.
The first second Suri was so surprised when she saw Aldrich’s face on the screen of her cellphone, she even almost threw her cellphone if Aldrich didn’t speak immediately and asked her to calm down.
“It’s ok Suri, I’m sorry if I interrupt your day and surprise you. I hope you won’t be angry,” said Aldrich again to calm Suri. “I want to apologize to you and want to be friends with you again, you still want to be friends with me, don’t you?”
Aldrich deliberately spoke like that to make Suri soft and melt with him, that was the only way to win Suri’s sympathy that was left in Aldrich’s head at this time.
“I..I’ve forgiven you and I don’t want to have anything to do with you guys anymore,” Suri stammered, remembering that Aldrich was a good friend of Areez, which made Suri a little scared.
Aldrich smiled. “But I still want to be friends with you, Suri. You don’t know how miserable I was after you left, right?”
“Missed?”
Binggo!
“Yeah, miserable. My slightly insane friend Areez went crazy while you were away, the first weeks were tough days for me dealing with his madness. In one day she can hit the wall multiple times to vent her anger, even some expensive jars in the mansion now already scattered on the ground in a pathetic form,” Aldrich said hoarsely, trying to get Suri’s pity.
“That bad?” asked Suri unconsciously.
“That’s okay, Suri,” replied Aldrich again, after taking a deep breath Aldrich then told Suri all the crazy things Areez did after her left. As someone who has lived with Areez for three years, Suri believes that currently Aldrich is not lying, Suri knows very well how Areez is when he is crazy.
“And when he found out you were a Clarke, he was so happy. He was happy that you were back with your family, he was happy that you were okay and...”
“And?”
“And he’s so sorry for what he’s done to you all this time, Suri. He’s sorry for not giving you a chance to talk and explain who you were at that time,” Aldrich said slowly and carefully, he didn’t want to make Suri remember what happened. Areez has done it before.
Suri bit her lower lip hard, she tried to be calm and not get carried away by emotions.
“You still want to forgive him, don’t you?” Aldrich urged back.
Siri nodded slowly. “I don’t know, I’m confused Aldrich.”
“Why are you confused?”
“I’m still scared, I’m afraid that Areez will take me back to his house and take me away from my family again,” answered Suri honestly in a trembling voice.
Aldrich immediately shook his head quickly. “No Suri, it won’t happen again. That madman won’t be able to repeat the same mistake, after all what Areez did to you back then was due to a misunderstanding. Areez thinks you are a spy sent by his business rival to kill him, that’s why he took you in and interrogated you at length for weeks before he finally realized that he had...”
“Already?”
“He fell in love with you after he swore he would never fall in love again after being betrayed by his future wife a few years ago, Suri,” Aldrich answered seriously. “Areez kept you at his house and didn’t let you go because he was afraid, he was afraid of losing the woman he loved again like that time when one of his best friends took Angelica, his future wife. The only woman who made him so anti-love before you finally came into his life.”
