Married Contract With You, My Perfect Husband Chapter 144

Cleo then took Harry to another shop.
Walked around several shelves of clothes in the shop. Harry pulled out some clothes for Cleo. Took one then matched it on Cleo's body.
Cleo didn't understand what he was doing.
"What exactly are you doing?" She was continued to watch Harry's movements, "Are you looking for some clothes for someone? Who? Christina? Or is there another woman?"
Caught something, Cleo smiled meaningfully.
"Ehm... Could you already have another woman? No wonder you were so calm when Aretta tried to approach you. Do I know that woman?" Cleo was suddenly curious.
And she really didn't know that Harry had chosen that outfit for her on purpose. Not for other women as she thought.
Harry still while he was choosing and continuing to match clothes. Then handed it to the clerk for him to include in the bill. Harry had already chosen enough clothes to give to Cleo.
The clueless Cleo continued to stare at him. Harry simply answered her question casually.
"I bought these clothes to fill your closet," Harry decided to do charity.
Harry added again.
"Don't refuse my kindness! And consider this a bonus as well as a punishment for you for never using the credit card that I gave. I did it because I wanted to. So don't feel burdened!"
Cleo could only be silent for a moment. Looked back at all the piles of clothes that Harry choose. Cleo seemed a little concerned.
"Okay. But, isn't that too much?"
Cleo patted her forehead for a moment. Then spoke out loudly when Harry still wants to buy another for her.
"Enough!"
Cleo looking at Harry with a serious look.
"This is had more than enough!"
Cleo gave some reason.
"There are still a lot of clothes I have at home that I haven't worn. So why do you still have to buy it again this much?"
Cleo felt Harry's actions were wrong. But she was also sure that Harry wasn't a man who would easily listen to her words.
Harry began to consider it.
"Well. If that your want, I'm going to order all the latest edition clothes in this shop," Harry then was glancing at the shopkeepers who were still faithfully accompanying them.
Some of them looked surprised and looked at each other.
An enthusiastic-looking female employee asked doubtfully.
Cleo then took Harry to another shop.

"All the latest editions in our shop, Sir?" asked the one of female employees in disbelief as she continued to stare in confusion. Harry had said yes. And made everyone looked shocked, no less than Cleo.
What the hell with this guy?
Is this man out of his mind?

Cleo hastily stopped Harry.
"I already said that I don't really need it. Are you not listening to my words?" Cleo protested.
"Dirga has completely filled my entire closet. This many clothes won't fit!"
Harry suggested a solution.
"if so I'll provide a fitting room downstairs then. You don't have to worry about where to put it."
Cleo stunned.
"But that's not the case! The problem was that everything had been fulfilled and I didn't need extra clothes and space. Indeed, You are want do to open a showroom?"
Harry then reconsidered his decision.
"Sorry for we don't seem to will be buying that much yet!"
Cleo sighed in relief.
Despite having to accept the disappointed stares of the shop employees.
Harry then stopped his footsteps, as he caught some other cynical stares from the shopkeepers.
Why? They weren't happy and agree when Harry ruffled their wares at will and they wanted to blame Cleo?
Did not want that to happen, Harry immediately acted irrationally.
Glared at all the employees who were staring at the two of them with a low glance. Just when they thought Harry might just lie when he said he could afford a lot of clothes.
Harry looked for the head among them all.
"I will buy this shop and its contents. Discuss this with my secretary!" Harry handed Dirga's business cards to their head shop.
Harry then left, leaving the employees gawking and staring at each other, after they saw the business card that he gave. One of them then shouted.
"He's Harry Miles from Theor company?"
Someone shrieked in horror.
Familiar and knew the name of the company very well because the owner was rumored to be so successful and handsome. Then he was also highly respected by many top-class entrepreneurs.
She then put on a sad face.
So the couple that just came to their little shop, was Harry Miles Theodore??!
Everyone hit their foreheads in horror at having made such a grave mistake.
Harry who had managed to get Cleo out of the shop ( who seemed to have been very wrong to put them down ), walked back to where they were supposed to be waiting for the picked-up car.

Cleo was still objected to Harry's decision. Even when they've been picked up and were in the car.
Cleo was already looking at the man a little fiercely.
"Do you need to be so easily offended? It's only natural that their faces all look irritated because you're the one messing up their clothes. And I pull you out to cancel it. If it was me, I would also do the same!" Cleo exclaimed very defiantly.
Harry answered nonchalantly.
"But I never said I would cancel it. Didn't I say I would buy them all without saying no? Why are they still doubting me?" Harry quipped with an expression that didn't seem to want to understand.
Cleo laughed mockingly.
"By buying all the contents along with the building?" Cleo spoke half sarcastically.
Someone who heard this would think that this man just wanted to invest in a shop. But in reality, Harry was just annoyed and angry that someone was trying to put him down.
Was his mind really that narrow?, Cleo complained silently in her heart.
Felt that Harry was taking some people's views of him too seriously and was dissatisfied with how he worked it out. Harry was actually annoyed not that they seemed to doubt his abilities.
But more to their gazes that looked down on Cleo. Harry didn't like it when even just one person looked down on his woman. His wife who even though only as a contract wife, but still his wife. Harry would also shut the mouth of any woman or man who insulted her.
Ignored all of Cleo's complaints to her objections. They finally returned to the office with the long tension that had occurred that afternoon.
Starting from the arguments between Harry and Willy. Then Harry with Aretta. Harry with the workers in the women's clothing store. And last, Harry and Cleo, who really felt to unable comprehend him.
Continued their work again and as usual, she had to wait for Harry to finish working overtime until the night. Cleo had unconsciously fallen asleep on her desk. Felt tired and sleepy without she could stand it.
Harry who just realized it was getting dark, decided to go home immediately. Looked for the person he needed in the middle of an office that was already quiet and a little dark. Harry found Cleo already asleep at her desk and sleeping on her stomach.
Immediately packed all his belongings and turned off the lights. Harry deliberately didn't wake Cleo because he was worried it would disturb her comfort and Cleo looked very tired.
