317 The mask

Christian, who initially intended to ask Zwetta for help to retrieve his cellphone which was left in the car, immediately stood up without a sound when he saw the presence of his parents in his study.

“Only ten minutes, Christ. After that we won’t disturb your work anymore,” Jack said quietly full of promise.

Christian who was locking his lips tightly, looked doubtful; he was afraid that his parents would disturb Zwetta. For now Christian is at his best after months of stress and he doesn’t want the arrival of his parents to mess things up, Christian isn’t ready to lose Zwetta yet.

“Christ...”

“Ok just ten minutes,” Christian says quickly.

Jack’s eyes lit up, looking so happy. The same thing is also seen in Anne, Anne also looks very happy after hearing Christian’s approval.

“Please have a seat, young master,” said Erick quietly. “You too Miss Zwetta.”

Christian who was ready to take a step, immediately turned his face towards Erick who had just asked Zwetta to join them.

“You asked Zwetta to come along? I didn’t hear wrong, did I?” Christian asks probingly.

.....

“Because we want to thank Miss Zwetta for saving Suri from her crazy kidnapper, Christ.” Anne replaces Erick, answering Christian’s question in a soft voice, Anne is trying her best to calm down even though her chest is currently rumbling. Even though Zwetta wore a black mask that covered her face, Zwetta ‘s beautiful sparkling eyes managed to remind Anne of Elena. The smiling girl who always follows Christian.

Hearing his mother mention Suri and Osbert made Christian turn his attention to Erick, Christian was sure that his father’s most loyal assistant had already told all about Osbert to his parents. And as if knowing the meaning of Christian’s gaze, Erick pursed his lips and said, “Mr Jack and Mrs Jack already know everything young master, that’s why we are here.”

“What do you want to do?” Christian asks again, this time his tone is much firmer than before.

“We really just wanted to say thank you to Miss Zwetta, Christ. Nothing more,” Anne replied back. “Mommy would like to say thank you directly to the person who saved Mommy’s two children, is Mommy’s simple wish too difficult, Christ?”

Damn it!

Christian is numb, seeing his mother pitifully like that makes him powerless to refuse.

After taking a deep breath, Christian then walked over to the sofa to quickly join his parents and Zwetta , who had been silent for a long time, looked so nervous and confused. Even though she knew that the boss’s parents had come to thank her, Zwetta still felt awkward. She felt she should not be in the midst of a rich family who was having a small reunion.

“Come here Zee, sit beside me.”

“Huh what?”

Christian pats the empty sofa beside him gently. “Join us, my parents want to talk to you.” Christian clarifies his words.

Zwetta , who couldn’t refuse, decided to follow Christian’s request, by not removing the mask that was still covering her face, Zwetta sat next to Christian directly facing Anne who was looking at her without blinking. Anne, who was very impatient, tried to see Zwetta clearly even though her efforts were in vain because Zwetta’s still covered by a mask that she had never taken off when she was in Christian’s company for security reasons.

“Looks like you really are the girl who helped Suri four years ago.” Jack started talking, trying to interact directly with Zwetta. “Your current appearance is exactly what we found on CCTV around the hotel.”

From behind her mask Zwetta smiled a little. “This mask is a kind of personal protection that must be used while at work and I hope you both can understand that.”

“But right now you’re in a very safe room, so I don’t think you need to wear a mask like that to protect yourself,” said Anne softly. “I’m sure it must be uncomfortable to wear a mask like that.”

“I’m sorry Madam, I...”

“What my wife said is true, Miss Zwetta.” Jack immediately interrupted Zwetta’s, their first mission was to see Zwetta directly that’s why both of them tried to force Zwetta to remove the black mask from the face of the girl who was sitting in a perfectly upright position. “Anyway, even though you are currently carrying out your duties as one of my son’s employees, you are in a very safe place. No one can see or overhear what we are talking about right now, all the glass installed in this building will not be entered with any sophisticated surveillance camera. So you don’t have to worry, your identity will still be guaranteed.”

Christian’s hands immediately clenched into fists, hearing the words of his parents made Christian immediately know what the main purpose of his parents was to appear in his office at this time. Christian who inherited Jack’s intelligence, easily read the plans of a husband and wife who were playing their roles very well. But even though he already knew the intentions of his parents, Christian still couldn’t do anything. He couldn’t stop Zwetta from wearing her mask because it would cause even bigger problems for him and Zwetta.

Zwetta who looks doubtful glances at Christian for an opinion and Christian who doesn’t want to make things worse chooses to nod his head slowly, giving a code to Zwetta if he agrees with what his parents said a moment ago. Zwetta who had no other choice chose to follow the request of the husband and wife who continued to stare at her intently.

Slowly Zwetta put the coffee cup that had been in her hand on the table, then simultaneously her hands moved behind her ears to release the mask strap hanging there.

Anne almost screamed if it weren’t for Jack who immediately woke her up by clutching her fingers that felt so cold from tension, seeing Zwetta that was not covered by a mask made everyone in the room except Christian immediately look tense. Even though the Ronin had said everything, they were still in awe when they saw Zwetta who looked so much like Elena. There wasn’t the slightest difference between Zwetta and Elena, the two of them really were very similar. Even if Elena was by Zwetta ‘s side right now, they would definitely not be able to tell which was Zwetta and which was Elena.
