Genius Child For a Cold-hearted CEO
Chapter 48

... Meaning of Lotus Flower...

The night looks dark. The starlight is being covered in gray clouds. That night, Irene was seen standing in front of the gates of Aksara Park. Today, Long An is staying at the Twin's house. So, Irene could walk out looking for some fresh air. He stared long enough at the park. Parks built by Aksara Enterprise company. The garden that the other day made memories embedded in Irene's mind. Irene remembered well, how she had gotten there. The lights are beautifully lit. Shimmered in all directions. That night, Irene who had never thought about love. Makes her heart shake when she is with Ravindra. Ravindra who was so cold in Irene's eyes, somehow attracted her. Irene felt, Rava is a lonely good man. The feeling of loneliness made the man's heart turn cold.

To be honest, Irene wanted to know more about Ravindra's true life. Why can, Rava became a cold male figure. However, Irene hesitated to accept Ravindra's heart. He remembered what happened 10 years ago. Where, he had to swallow the bitter pill his holy lotus flower had been snatched away just like that by Ravindra. To this day, Irene had never heard a definitive answer from the man. After the incident that night, Rava never contacted Irene at all or gave an explanation. Many things raged in Irene's mind. Thinking about many things. Irene walked slowly into Aksara Park.

This time, there were only dim garden lights. In contrast to when Ravindra used to give a romantic surprise to Irene. However, the surprise that Ravindra gave was apparently not enough to make Irene's heart move. I was moved to take it for granted. Irene just wanted to know from Rava's mouth. Is it true, 10 years ago Rava was the one who had fucked up to make Irene pregnant.

Irene continued walking until she reached the pond filled with colorful lotus flowers. Some are white, red or blue. Everything looks so pretty. It blooms so beautifully. Irene tried to walk on the water like the other day. Can it still be done? because the other day was like magic for Irene. Irene's feet tried to tread on the surface of the pool water. Slowly but surely, Irene's feet stepped on the surface of the water and. yap. Irene's feet managed to stand on the surface of the water. The woman who had the charming face smiled knot. The magic is not gone.

Slowly Irene stepped towards the middle of the pond. He saw a red lotus flower. Just like Ravindra gave her the other day. Irene squatted down and plucked the red lotus flower. The flowers are so beautiful with alluring colors. Irene smiled and recalled, that the other day Ravindra also gave her a lotus flower bobble pendant. However, Irene could not accept it yet. He was still waiting for Ravindra's answer.

*Lotus Flower Illustration, in the pool.

Irene who was holding the lotus flower circulated the gaze around the pond. Enjoy the beautiful lotus flowers. The lotus-lotus flower also reminds her of her late father who also loved the flower. Irene was about to walk in the other direction. But before his feet stepped, suddenly a voice rebuked him.

“Don't get too far. You will fall if you walk to the side. The layer of glass that I stacked with Long An the other day did not reach the edge. So, watch your step.” reprimand someone.

The man emerged from behind a tree near the pond. The person who reprimanded Irene was wearing a black formal suit. His eyes narrowed sharply. The parasite looks handsome like a prince. Look meaningfully at the woman who has stolen his heart. Irene was surprised to see who was reprimanding her. The one who reprimanded Irene was none other than Ravindra Damariswara, the Coldhearted CEO.

“Ka.. you?!” Irene's eyes were wide in disbelief.

Without Irene's orders, her heart was racing at the sight of Ravindra's presence. It was so fast like someone was hitting. There was a feeling of joy in Irene. When he saw Ravindra in front of him.

What's wrong with me? Why do I feel this bad? Irene asked herself. He can only speak in his heart.

Ravindra walked slowly towards where Irene was.

“Tu...wait, what did you mean earlier put together the glass with Long An?” Irene asked confused by Ravindra's words.

“I don't know how to express my feelings. So, Long An helped me put this together.” Answer Rava.

Irene really can't believe, her son was also involved in making a surprise for her. Apparently the trick to being able to walk on the surface of the water is to arrange a thick layer of glass in the pool. It was all the ideas of Long An who had intelligence beyond a child his age.

“Why are the nights here? Where is Long An?” ask Ravindra. Ravindra's eyes looked around her. This time, Ravindra no longer called Long An as the boy. Calling the name correctly.

“A. Long An was staying at the house of the twins.” Irene replied slightly stammered, because she was groggy with the sudden presence of Ravindra.

“Ah... so apparently.” said Ravindra.

“La.. Then why are you here?” asked Irene who still could not control her feelings.

“This park is my garden. So, I am free to come here anytime.” replied Ravindra in a snobbish tone.

“The habit of saying someone's name carelessly is also still attached to you.” reply Rava does not want to lose.

“Ka.. what a shitty man.” grumbled Irene with a sloppy face.

“Actually, I was already here before you came.” Rava said as he looked at Irene.

“Ja... So since you've been watching me?” ask Irene.

Ravindra nodded and gave a meaningful look at Irene. Being stared at like that made Irene a little flutter. However, he tries to control his feelings in front of Rava.

“Kata Long An, you really like lotus flowers. I wonder, why do you like this flower so much?” ravindra asked as she stared at the flower held by Irene.

Irene was silent for a moment. However, it did not last long.

“Previous as a child. I used to travel with my late father. He always invited me to look at the lotus flower. The lotus flower has a very deep philosophy of life. If you look, the habitat of this lotus flower. Lotus flowers live and grow in this kind of dirty environment or mud. Even lotus flowers can grow in dirty water. We know for sure, that a dirty environment can be a source of disease. However, in such a dirty place lotus flowers can grow very beautiful. Natural beauty that we can never imagine living in a dirty environment like this. It can have meaning, if the bad environment is not a reason to make someone behave badly.” replied Irene while sharing her alluring smile. When remembering memories with his late father.

“While I really like lotus, because I once lived in an unworthy environment. Raised in an orphanage. Life without parents. I can't have good clothes. Life is short of. Being looked down upon by others. So, people look at me like dirty mud. However, even though I live in such an environment. I am grateful to myself. I'm not necessarily worse than a human like me who lives in the same neighborhood. I want to live like a lotus.” flower again Irene smiled.

His smile is rarely seen. However, when Irene had already revealed her alluring smile. Make anyone who sees will be captivated. Including Ravindra Damariswara who is already entangled.

Ravindra was shocked to hear Irene's reply. He felt Irene's words were very striking to him. Rava who grew up in an environment that is all-round and has everything. Instead choose to be a cold human being and do not care for others. Unlike Irene who was raised in an orphanage and was lacking. But Irene chose life differently. He has a kindness. He cares for others and has compassion in his heart. Ravindra realized now, why Irene could have such a warm heart. So too with little Long An. The child grew up to be a great child and had a warm heart from being raised by a mother like Irene.

Slowly, Ravindra approached Irene. He looked at the woman in front of him without blinking. Rava's heart never beats this fast. It is cold to women. For the first time in his life, the cold melted away. Irene's alluring smile seemed to ensnare her heart to get closer. When the distance between the two was close, Rava clasped Irene's hand. It surprised the girl. Rava's distance was really very close to him. Again.... and again.Irene's heart was pounding.

Without Irene guessing what would happen next. Suddenly Rava landed her lips on Irene's lips. Kissing Irene slowly. He gave his feelings to the woman who had stolen his heart. On the other hand, Irene was really surprised that suddenly Rava menci\*umnya like this. Irene's eyes widened and the lotus flower she was holding fell down slowly. Irene's heart beat faster. He only felt his lips coming into contact with Ravindra's lips.

I.. *this.the taste of these lips is the same as the taste of the lips 10 years ago. The lips of someone who had plucked the pure lotus flower*.Irene said in her heart.

Irene could only stand sculpting. His body stopped to move. Irene could only feel the lips of Ravindra menci\*um her lips.

In the sky, starlight was no longer timid. Its bright light shimmered revealing the depth of the night. Deliver beautiful colors. The lotus flowers in the pond were seen to emit a very charming light. Be witnesses of the bond of hearts of two people who are united.
