Arson's Soft Caress

Arriving at the office, all the Arson employees welcomed and greeted Kylie. They all knew that Drake Adams' youngest daughter was back. It was not only them who knew, but it had become a public conversation. They were all curious to see Kylie's current growth which was certainly very beautiful, just like their great mistress, Emily. Even though Kylie had only left Italy for three years to pursue her education, the girl never came home because she couldn't bear to see Drake sad when she was about to return to Germany.

"Good morning Mr. Arson and welcome Miss Kylie," they greeted each other as Arson and Kylie walked into Drake's first son's study.

As usual, Arson only returned the small nods given by all their employees, but it was different with Kylie. The daughter of Drake had always been the friendliest among Drake's other sons, even Kylie did not hesitate to make friends let alone greet ordinary people like them.

There is no prohibition from Drake for his sons and daughters to be friendly to others, as long as they are not caught in the enemy's trap. However, as they get older, all of his sons are showing their authority, especially Arson who looks the coldest among the others. The man would only speak if there were important things to be said, when spoken to by his business opponents, Arson was more silent and only observed the conversation and project plans they proposed. Even Arson is colder than his father and for Arson's cruelty, he no longer asks.

The young man truly inherited everything that Drake had, even at the age of 18, Arson had beaten a man and almost died because he had tried to harm Jevin, Drake's third son who was known to be the calmest among Drake's other sons.

"Good morning everyone. Yes, thank you," Kylie replied with a big smile and a bow to every employee who greeted her.

The feeling of all the employees there were very happy because their words were reciprocated by the Young Miss of the Adams family, unlike Arson who had only been nodding his head. Like a fan getting a notice from his idol.

After Arson and Kylie got into the elevator they ready to take the two people to the top floor, that's where Arson's room was.

Employee whispers began to be heard from those who still looked happy.

"Miss Kylie is the friendliest, isn't she? Especially now that her face is really beautiful," said one of the female employees with a big smile.

"You're right, even I never thought that Miss Kylie still keeps her friendliness from when she was a teenager," said another male employee.

"Yes, I've hardly seen the daughter of a high-ranking family be as friendly as Miss Kylie," said another female employee.

They all nodded their heads simultaneously, agreeing with each other's words.

In the middle of their conversation, suddenly a bodyguard who always followed Arson wherever he went, came and joined the conversation among them.

"Better get on with your work! Before Mr. Arson hears your conversation," the man said and immediately made all the employees disperse in fear.

The bodyguard stepped up to check the situation ahead. If there was no Juan, then he would take full responsibility for Arson's security.

Inside Arson's study, Shena immediately circled the room belonging to the tall man. There was no difference between Arson's workspace at home and in the office, even the man's room had the same colors, black and white and minimalist in shape.

"Son," Kylie said and managed to make the man beside her turn his head towards Kylie.

Arson did invite Kylie to walk ahead of him.

"Aren't you bored, your room is always the same color. Even the shape is no different," said Kylie who was still paying attention to every corner of the room which didn't have many patterns, or objects that would make the room cramped.

"Don't you like this kind of room? It's simple, but looks luxurious," Arson asked as he stepped towards his desk.

Kylie immediately looked at Arson then followed his lead and sat down in front of Drake's eldest son then, the girl nodded her head.

"You're right. Why is it that when the atmosphere is like this, it's calmer, right? Instead of a lot of stuff or having a style like Jeykey's room, I feel dizzy if I'm in his room," said Kylie who agreed with Arson's opinion.

Both Arson and Kylie had similar pleasures, and Kylie preferred quietness, even though she was a humble person to others.

"She's like a girl," says Arson, who starts talking about her brother.

Kylie laughed. "Maybe it's because he's a playboy that he prefers the trinkets that deal with things like that," said Kylie who knew how Drake's Fourth Son liked to give a woman hope, but once she loved him, Jeykey would quickly leave her. It's a good thing Jeykey didn't have time to mess with someone else's daughter.

After checking something on his iPad, Arson stood up to leave Kylie as the young man had said to the youngest, before they arrived at the office.

"What's the meeting now?" asked Kylie who already understood the moves Arson was about to make.

The man nodded his head as he continued to stare at Kylie's face.

"Isn't it very early in the morning? Have all the investors arrived yet? As far as I know, meetings are usually held above nine o'clock," Kylie asked.

However, at least she understands the business world.

Arsan smiled so handsomely that Kylie's heart almost melted. Even if she could not hold her body, it was certain that she would fall off the chair because she was mesmerized by the sweet smile given by the man sitting in front of her.

"The sooner, the better, isn't it? That way I can accompany you faster, right?" replied Arson.

The man even asked his assistant to immediately contact several investors who would have a meeting with his company.

"Alright, I'll wait here. Hopefully, the meeting will go smoothly," Kylie said encouragingly to Arson as she clasped one hand and then lifted it, pointing it at Arson. Not forgetting the girl gave a smile that was no less sweet than the smile given by Arson.

Arson prepared to take a step, but before that he also gently rubbed Kylie's head while stroking the girl's blue beaded hair that looked smooth.

"I won't be long," said Arson to which Kylie nodded back.

Kylie continued to watch Arson's steps and after making sure that the man disappeared from behind the door, Kylie wanted to express her happiness because of Arson's sweet treatment by jumping. Just as she was about to do so, Kylie realized that Arson's workspace was impossible if it was not equipped with CCTV.

Finally, the girl abandoned her intention and returned to her seat.

Kylie folded her face. "I forgot that there must be CCTV in this room. If I do that, Arson will check all the time and it could be that even right now while walking he is looking at his cellphone to make sure that I am here okay, no sneaks have entered," Kylie said monologuing in a very low voice, even if there were ants on the work table Arson would not hear her words.

Drake's youngest daughter stood up and moved to sit in Arson's chair. Before she could drop her lower back, Kylie saw the picture frames containing their childhood photos, where the late Emily was still present. What confused Kylie was that one of the frames contained a photo of Arson with her. The girl who has the smallest posture of Drake's other sons, still remembers that the photo was taken when she was about to leave for Germany 3 years ago.

"He still has it? Why doesn't he replace the new one? There are so many new photos of us that he always takes when he goes there," said Kylie, resting her chin on her folded hands, which she placed on Arson's desk.

"Son, you know that I love you," Kylie said silently, only her lips moving while looking at Arson's photo as if saying her heart to the handsome man.

"Yes, I know," someone said.

The voice was very recognizable and managed to make Kylie freeze.
