"Excuse me?" Kyle is somewhat baffled by what Arion just said to him.
Arion just said that he went out of the line. What does he mean by that? And by the sound of it, it seems that Arion is accusing him of something he never knew he had done.
"What the heck is wrong with this old man?" Kyle inwardly commented.
If Arion were to hear that Kyle called him "old man", he would be angry and might even kick Kyle out.
"Punk, how dare you make a move on my daughter." Since Kyle doesn"t get why he is here, Arion might as well hint Kyle what he had done to him.
Tilting his head in confusion, Kyle spoke, "Daughter? I don"t know what you are talking about." In Kyle"s mind, he has never met Arion"s daughter, so how is it possible that he is being accused of something he never once did.
Kyle looks at the person next to him. Erik is the only person who would make on any girls just to continue his image as a player. Is it possible that the man in front of him, mistaken that he is the one who made a move on his daughter? "I think you are mistaken, I think it"s Erik who made a move on your daughter."
Instead of taking the blame, Kyle pushed the blame on Erik. And Erik was flabbergasted when he heard his name being mentioned.
It is true that he made a move on a lot of girls, but this time, he is sure that one of those girls is not that man"s daughter. Besides! Even if he did make a move on his daughter, he wouldn"t know since he has no idea who is the parents of the girls he dated.
"Made a mistake? That"s very funny." With a hint of ridicule on his tone, Arion gave Kyle another piercing glare. "I"m pretty sure that it is you whom I"m talking about."
After hearing that Erik dug deeper into his memories. The only girl that his friend made a move on is Anna and no one else. If he puts the pieces together, then the daughter that this man is talking about would be Anna.
Erik stared at Arion"s face and then frowns. "Wait. This doesn"t make any sense." Erik inwardly stated. From what he knows, Anna and her brother look a lot like their father. So how is it possible that this man in front of him is Anna"s father. Anna clearly did not get her looks from this man.
No matter how much Erik thinks about it, he thinks the man in front of him is being delusional at the fact of having Anna as his daughter. "Is he imagining things?"
Kyle, on the other hand, thought that same thing when he heard the last sentence Arion said. "Old man, if you are talking about Anna, then you are being delusional. Based on your looks you are not her father."
After Kyle had said his piece, a burst of loud laughter from behind is suddenly heard from behind them. "I can"t! This is too much!"
What Kyle said made a huge impact on Leon. He promised himself that he will only listen to them and would not interrupt their conversation. But with all the attacks Kyle is giving to his boss, he could not help it.
Kyle is so daring at this moment, Leon wonders if his boss were to remove that artificial face, what kind of att.i.tude will Kyle show to his boss. At the moment, Leon can only pity his boss that his future son-in-law is attacking him verbally with no respect.
"Kyle, instead of making my boss to like you, you"ve made him dislike you even more." Now that this is happening, Leon is not sure anymore if Anna and Kyle will end up together.
"Dude, why are you laughing? Can"t you see that it is not appropriate for this kind of situation?" With the tensions that are happening between Kyle and Arion, Erik does not have the time to find humor with everything that has been going on.
"I know. I know. But it is funny!" Leon knows that after this his boss will punish him for laughing, but Leon is willing to risk it since he cannot hold it in any longer. The people in the room waited for Leon to finish laughing. They could not continue having a conversation if someone is distracting them.
After a few seconds, Leon finally stopped laughing. "Sorry about that. Please, do continue with your conversation." Leon politely said.
"Go outside." Arion coldly said to Leon. Arion knew that it"s a bad idea to let Leon listen to the conversation between him and Kyle, but Leon kept pestering on letting him, so in the end, he agreed. And now regrets it.
"What? Why? I wanna stay and see Kyle"s reaction when you reveal your real face to him!" The reason why he pestered Arion to let him listen to their conversation is that he wants to see Kyle"s reaction.
He is pretty sure that he is not the only feels the same way.
"Your real face? What kind of nonsense is that?" Kyle asked with a frown plastered on his face.
"The kind of nonsense that will blow your mind!" No matter what his boss will say to him, Leon will stick till the end. He will stay until he saw the moment he is waiting for.
Sighing deeply, Arion decided not to pay more attention to Leon. Right now his attention should be on Kyle and to no one else. His goal is to make Kyle give up on his daughter. Some might think that he has no right to do that, but he does not care.
All he cares about is his daughter"s feelings. Kyle is a good man and a perfect man for his daughter. But with Kyle, his daughter will face many hards.h.i.+ps. Many women will get in the way, many will try to kill his daughter because of Kyle.
He does not want any of those women to get close to Anna. If it"s for Anna"s safety, he would rather be the bad guy than be a good guy who would give his blessing to someone like Kyle who has a lot of admirers.
Feeling impatient, Arion removed his artificial face, and let Kyle see his real ident.i.ty. This time, he will make Kyle regret what he said to him earlier. "Now, shall we go back to the conversation we had earlier?"
With one hand on his mouth, Erik turns his head around and said to Kyle, "Dude, you are so dead."
