Ch. 53 Sneaking Into The Flex Group

Chleo pursed her lips, not wanting to speak and enlighten her parents' curiosity. She acted obliviously and celebrated her birthday in the usual way.

Of course, the only person she could express her feeling to was Uncle Kinsey's wife. Only Aunt Katie could understand and believe all her so-called ridiculous story. Aunt Katie had seen her ice prince because that woman was once the red queen.

"Could it be, it's from the blue king?" Katie guessed, whispering into her ear as she carried her two-year-old daughter.

Chleo answered by nodding her head once. "I remember you once warned me to forget him. I better not get my hopes up for him to see me again. But... I can't forget it at all. Moreover, he always comes to give me winter aconite flowers on my birthday. I can't forget him, aunt Kitty."

Katie offered the little girl her motherly smile when she heard the tale of her husband's nephew. "I was wrong, dear. Forget everything I said back then." said the woman, kissing the top of her daughter's head.

"You don't have to forget him. But it's good that you don't get your hopes up too high. He was not an ordinary human but a blue king. Like I used to be the red queen, then died to save your uncle using my life energy. It was a miracle my fellow rulers revived me, and I'm no longer the same person I used to be. There is a possibility that the blue king won't be the same as when he met you." Katie gently stroked the top of Chleo's head affectionately. "You are a child filled with blessings. Everyone wants you to be happy. I hope you don't fall into the trap of the blue king's charm. You deserve better than that."

Katie believed it was never easy to have an average romance with the ruler of nature. Chleo will meet many obstacles if she falls in love with one. It was all evident from the experience of her birth mother, Keisha, who eventually married her red king father and ended tragically. She, too... she almost lost Kinsey, and her husband almost lost her many times.

Katie and Kinsey did not have a smooth road at the beginning of their relationship. They have a misunderstanding at the beginning of their meeting, bitterness about the past, and their stubbornness that makes their relationship almost crack.

If it weren't for their strong feelings for each other, they might have broken up long ago.

Katie didn't want Chleo to experience it. She didn't wish Chleo to experience the amorous suffering of falling in love with a ruler of nature. Moreover... their age gap was too far, considering that the platinum-haired youth's face was in his mid-twenties when he met little Chleo. Vincent and Cathy will not approve of them and will oppose them.

"What do you mean, aunt?" asked Chleo, breaking Katie's thoughts.

"I hope you can meet someone who sincerely loves you and is willing to do anything for your happiness. That's all I want for you." It didn't matter whether that person was the ruler of nature or not. Katie continued in her heart.

"Ha?? What are you talking about? Why can't I understand it?"

"You're still very young," Katie replied, pinching Chleo's nose playfully. "You'll understand when you grow up."

When you grow up, people say that the age of sixteen is considered an adult. But until now, until she was sixteen years old, Chleo still couldn't understand what her aunt was talking about.

Then an unexpected meeting happened when she was sixteen years old. She met the person her aunt meant—a man who will probably love her sincerely.

The one who could possibly do anything for Chleora Regnz's happiness.

That day, instead of going to school, Chleora came to her father's company building. After all, the end-of-semester exams are over, and she only waited for the result. So Chleo deliberately skipped school and came to her father's office without anyone knowing.

Chleo had no idea that there would be a job interview at the Flex group building that day. She just came casually and was surprised the main lobby of her father's office building was busier than usual.

Chleo rarely came to her father's office, unlike Diego, who likes to watch his father work. Just one look, everyone already knows, the successor to the Flex group will no doubt be Diego.

As for Chleora...

She had absolutely no interest in business or continuing her father's business. Neither does she like to be the target of people's attention. It is much better for her to be an ordinary child, someone who is free to go wherever she wants without being followed by a bodyguard.

The day she came to the office to visit her father in the office, she purposely tricked her bodyguards first so that she could freely come here. Her bodyguards must still think Chleo is at school because they only saw her enter the school but didn't see her leave.

How so?

Chleo jumped over the back wall of the school to sneak out. That's why the two bodyguards didn't know that Chleo was now in the lobby of the Flex group building.

Chleo went to the reception desk and asked for directions to meet the top management in this company.

"What's your name? Have you made an appointment?"

Hm... should she tell that she is the daughter of Vincent Regnz? But, if she were to reveal her name, wouldn't it be in vain for her to come here in secret?

After all, she doesn't want more people to recognize her as the eldest daughter of Vincentius Regnz, the founder and owner of the Flex group.

"Uhm.. my name is Rara. I haven't made an appointment with Mister Regnz. What should I do?" Chleo asked innocently.

The receptionist answered in a friendly manner. "Sorry, I can't help you. Right now, our executive is in a meeting. Can't be bothered other than scheduled appointments."

"Ooo..." Chleo muttered disappointedly. This receptionist would take her to see her father as soon as she said her real name.

But Chleo still wouldn't say it. She was more interested in the crowd of young people that filled the waiting area in the lobby.

Why is the lobby in this company so crowded?
