Married Contract With You, My Perfect Husband Chapter 21
Advertisement
With slow steps, Cleo walked back into Dirga's room following the man.
When they entered, Harry was still sitting in the same chair he had been in earlier. And with one hand still touching a cellphone, that man stared at Cleo without blinking.
Cleo got nervous.
To get rid of the awkwardness, Cleo chose to immediately sit down before being invited.
She took the seat directly opposite Harry. And it was only a few seconds later that she looked at Harry seriously.
"I apologize for interrupting your meeting. But I really didn't know that the two of you were in a meeting. Especially about being here. If only I had known, I might not have entered without permission," Cleo explained again for the umpteenth time.
Harry looked at Cleo coldly. He put his cellphone back on and rested on his arm.
Feeling that the man didn't want to respond to her words, Cleo spoke again.
"Your receptionist said earlier that you were currently in a meeting. That's why instead of wanting to meet you in person, I'm looking for your secretary. And they clearly said that Dirga's secretary was in his room. They didn't say anything about you guys having a meeting together. If I had known, I couldn't be rude like this " Cleo continued by speaking all the words full of pretexts.
Harry remained unfazed. And when Cleo thought that the man would remain silent and not respond, Cleo heard the words that challenged her.
"Do you think your behaviour is polite?" Harry asked, while looking at her with a flat expression.
"Trespassing and ignoring my employees, even if I'm not here?" Said Harry again.
Cleo was at a loss for words.
This man had listened the entire story from that assistant outside.
"So if there was only Dirga here, you think you could just carelessly go inside and make a fuss without following the existing procedures?" Harry asked sharply.

The man was really furious at the moment. And the person who provoked him was Cleo.
Harry glanced at Dirga.
"Suspend the receptionist at the downstairs and your assistant in front. Punish them with a commensurate penalty for letting someone enter without permission. At least I should be able to hear someone responsible for today's rudeness," he ordered. Dirga immediately said yes.
Cleo frowned.
Did a small problem like this have to be so big?
Even though Cleo didn't want this problem to affect the cooperation between them, but she clearly couldn't accept if this problem made it difficult for other people.
However, this was her fault.
"Can't we just assume this never happened? Didn't I apologize? I promise not to repeat my bad behaviour. I swear!" Cleo spoke with great confidence.
But she was ignored.
Harry Miles was truly an arrogant man. No wonder that he had a hard time finding the woman he wanted.
With his cold and unforgiving nature, he was clearly good at making people feel uncomfortable .
It was useless expecting that man to listen to Cleo's words.
Instead of listening to Cleo's words, Harry was silent for a few moments.
After relaxing on the sofa, Harry just took a deep breath and looked at Cleo inference.
"How much do you want?" Harry asked in an indifferent tone and with floating intentions.
Cleo responded with a confused "What?"
"What is the man talking about?" Cleo asked again in her heart.
"What's how much?" Cleo asked with a super confused expression. Her forehead creased.
She didn't understand Harry's words.
After they had discussed all of Cleo's immodesty problem, Harry suddenly asked a completely obscure question. What was he asking about?
Was he trying to play guesswork with Cleo?
Dirga, who saw Cleo failed to understand what his boss meant, he immediately corrected.

"About the contract. He asked, how much do you want in return for your participation in this contract? " Dirga explained, which immediately made Cleo finally understand.
"Ah, so, you mean....the contract? Why didn't he say it clearly instead of making me confused,!" Cleo muttered to herself, then bit her lower lip tightly.
Because she felt that their conversation might become more serious, Cleo decided to straighten her body taller than before. She looked at Harry thoughtfully.
Long before this, Cleo had already considered how much money she would ask for in return if this contract was successful.
Cleo firmly expressed her wish.
"I want 800 million . Prepaid. And it can't be less than a penny, "Cleo replied with full confidence and determination.
Harry didn't flinch.
On the other hand, Dirga was surprised by the nominal proposed by Cleo.
800 million??!
"How dare that woman ask for that much money ?! Does she think they are a mobile bank ?! Who can give whatever she asks ?? Even if they were a bank, that woman obviously couldn't ask for that much money if she doesn't have savings in their bank !!" said Dirga to himself in annoyance.
It really didn't make sense !!
