Chapter 695 - My husband receives only punishment

Brian didn't know whose side to take. He tugged Sky's sleeves, "I didn't insult you. I don't know why Director Kelly insulting."

Sky nodded at him as she said in low voice,  "My name should be under wrap. Am I clear?"

Brian was nodding vigorously when Director Kelly was fuming internally. "Brian, do I have to repeat myself? Did you stop loving your job?"

Sky rolled her eyes and told him, "Why are you hurting this woman's throat? Go back to work."

Sky entered the department leaving two. Brian walked to his desk.

Director Kelly glared at Sky's back who was time passing walking around.

She couldn't understand why President Smith kept Sky beside him all the time.

After seeing Sky absence in the office for a very long time, she was ecstatic and was trying to create problems and take them to Arlo for solutions but the latter would give solution without even looking at her or if the problems were simple he would ruthlessly admonish her for not working properly but she never took it to heart.

Seeing Sky back, she was the angriest than the vice president of Sigma and other few directors who Sky had screwed. Suddenly a smirk appeared on her face seeing Sky alone without Ryan or Arlo. She went behind her.

Sky was in front of the large smart screen in that the projects in which the Research and development department were working were displayed.

Sky swiped her hand to see the next project but the screen went dark and voice heard, "Miss. Secretary, If you have no work, you should be find something to do. Stop disturbing others."

Sky glanced at Director Kelly. She didn't feel the necessity to respond and went towards another side.

A few employees who heard Director Kelly talking harshly had diverted their attention to them, seeing Sky who they didn't know ignoring the director completely made them chuckle silently as few let out the sound.

That insulted Director Kelly to the core.

Director Kelly roared at Sky, "Stop right there."

Sky ignored.

It was a second humiliation to Director Kelly. She gritted her teeth and saw her entering the CEO's designated elevator after her palm scan.

Clenching her fist tight, she called Brian to her room. Brian knew Director Kelly called him to ask about Sky.

He prepared himself to lie and knocked on the glass door before opening to enter.

"Director Kelly." he greeted respectfully.

"Who the hell is she? How do you know her? What is her name?" 

Brian could identify the surging rage and hint of jealousy in her voice. He lied nonchalantly, "I. DON'T. KNOW."

Brian heard teeth grinding sound. He clenched his fist tight to remain calm. He mentally decided that Sky's position was higher than the Director so he wisely chose Sky's side.

"Do I look like a fool? Brian Kent! How dare you lie to me?"

Brian forced a faint smile, "Director Kelly! I just struck a conversation with the new girl. Is she a new employee? Which department is she working in?"

Director Kelly believed him and sent him breathing heavily in anger. Brian sighed a breath of relief after going out. He wiped his sweat before going for lunch. 

Sky, Arlo, and Ryan had lunch together.

Sky received all the files from Clara. She went through and signed before sending them with her to Harley.

She finished one more meeting before she was free. Sky sat on Arlo's desk next to him as she designed a necklace for Samara for her wedding.

Since Sky's left hand was holding her sketchbook, Arlo's left hand played with the rips of her jeans on her lap.

That was the scene Director Kelly entered to see. She was frozen near the door, Arlo didn't care to call her when he felt her presence and continued to work.

Sky felt a gaze on her back checked the reflection on the glass. She pursed her lips and asked Arlo in her normal soft tone.

"Honeybunch, do I belong to the jobless people category?"

Arlo glanced at her not really understanding why she asked, "Honey! If you belong to it then all working people also belong to the same category."

He caressed her cheek as he asked, "Did anybody tell you something?" 

His voice was very loving so as his gaze on Sky.

Director Kelly came out of her daze realizing Sky wasn't just a personal secretary. Thinking Sky might tell her name, she coughed lightly to get attention but the couple still looked at each other.

Sky smiled and shook her head lightly before continuing to sketch. 

Arlo understood by her smile who said it, as soon as his gaze landed on Director Kelly, the latter took a step back gulping her saliva.

That gentle, loving gaze was sharp, cold and piercing.

Seeing her not speak, Arlo clicked numbers on the intercom and a secretary rushed in, "President Smith, do I have any instruction?"

"Do I have to teach your job? Why unnecessary people are roaming here? Clean up."

Sky pursued her lips hard hearing his frosty tone and noticed secretary dragging the Director who was still digesting what just happened.

Sky pulled Arlo's swivel chair in front of her before cupping his face gently with both hands. His aura changed instantly seeing Sky. "You are soo handsome. Why do you always scare people with your eyes?"

Arlo showed discontent, "I thought my wife is going to reward me." 

Sky chuckled hearing him and pinched his cheeks, "I just reward to my smart secretary. My husband receives only punishment. Mr.President! You should complete your work..."

Arlo's lips tilted up receiving his reward, he wanted to ask for more than a peck but Loran spoke.

"Sister Sky! Do you think that's enough for Brother-in-law? You are such a niggard. Pitiful Brother-in-law."

Loran had finished his work in Town A and returned to plan Jai's wedding with her and Ryan.

Arlo saw her turn red hence he didn't add his tease and continued to work.

Loran entered as he added, "Brother-in-law, your personal secretary's workplace is really amazing. On the desk. I have to send this picture to Brother Jai."

Sky shot up from her place and chased after Loran on the last floor both bantering with each other.

It had been a very long time since Arlo had seen it...

Sam scheduled the meeting with Sigma in Harley Corporation before he informed about it. The head of the project was fuming knowing the change in location.

In the meeting, he scorned looking down on Harley Industries, "President Smith, This Harley Industries is audacious to put up their request to us. We are planning to look for companies in country S."

Sky lowered her head to see Sam's mail which he had sent to Sigma and replied, 'Well done'

Arlo who was checking a report, paused as an unemotional voice sounded, "What is the request?"

Many members looked at each other thinking Arlo was going to close down or teach them a lesson. "They changed the meeting location to Harley Corporation and deciding on time and date."

Arlo spoke after a few seconds. "No problem. Attend the meeting." He didn't tell it because it was Sky's company. It was because it wasn't new to know Harley deciding on dates because the clients need the Harley security team and they were on-demand, not vice versa.

Sigma could open for the bid but Harley would never participate as they already had lots in its plate.

All were bewildered and that chief could only sit in perplex.

Glancing at Sky's smile hearing him who was replying to an email, Arlo pinched her cheek ignoring the meeting attendees.
