Heartstrings In Dilemma

CHAPTER 40

Rain was lost in his thoughts, unable to concentrate on anything. Suddenly, something hit his head. When he looked up, he saw Sky staring at him with narrowed eyes. "Where are you lost, Rain? I think you don't want to pass this year, seeing how distracted you are," Sky said.

Rain rubbed his head where Sky had hit him. Sky was right he was distracted and the reason he was so distracted was Phayu. It had been three days since he'd seen him. Rain had gone to visit his parents, despite Phayu not wanting him to go. It had been too long since he'd last seen them. But the real problem wasn't just being apart from Phayu. The real problem was in these three days, they had barely talked, which was unusual. Phayu was always possessive, protective and of course a clingy boyfriend, so the lack of contact was troubling him.

Another hit landed on Rain's head, making him wince in pain. "Sky, what are you doing?" Rain whined.

"Concentrate on class," Sky said. Just then, the bell rang, signaling the end of the class. Rain immediately picked up his bag and left. Rain could hear his friends calling him, but right now, he was too angry to care. He wanted to see what had kept Phayu so busy that he hadn’t talked to him for three days.

Outside, dao was already waiting for him. Rain didn't want to take Phayu's car at first, but then he thought, why not? He was going to Phayu's company to surprise him and put some sense into his head. He hopped into the car and told dao to take him to Phayu's company.

When Rain hopped in the car, all he could think of was Phayu. He was a little disappointed that Phayu hadn't come to pick him up. He looked at Dao, who was driving, and asked, "Dao, why didn't Phayu come to pick me up?"

Dao, without looking back, answered, "He's been busy since you went to your parents."

"Busy with what?" Rain asked in confusion.

"Cleaning out all the moles. Right now, he must be in a meeting to let everyone know it's not easy to betray the Theerapanyakul family," Dao said.

Rain remembered how Phayu had been busy finding all the people related to Cherry and her father who had betrayed them. Phayu had even dealt with all the bodyguards involved. Rain recalled seeing the file with all the names listed. Now, he felt relieved that Phayu was busy with important matters and not ignoring him.

Rain missed Phayu a lot during these three days and couldn't wait to see him. The car ride seemed to take forever, but finally, they arrived at Phayu's company.

Without waiting for Dao, Rain stormed out of the car and immediately went to the lift, pressing the button for the floor where Phayu's meeting room was located. He had heard about it many times and saw some parts of the company during his last visit. The lift opened, and after walking a few steps, he was in front of the door, but before he could open it, he was stopped by a guard standing there.

Rain looked at him from top to bottom with furrowed brows. He hadn't seen this guy before with Phayu, and Phayu had very limited people he trusted. If this guard was standing here, he must be someone from the team of guards that Phayu had. "Move your hand," Rain said in a cold voice. He didn't like this guard at all for some reason.

The guard didn't move his hand. "Khun Phayu is in a meeting and no one is allowed to go inside," the guard said.

"I am not no one. Do you even know who I am?" Rain asked, but the guard remained silent.

Now Rain was pissed off. He took a deep breath as he didn't want to spoil his good mood. He smirked a little. "You better leave my way, or it won't be good for you," said Rain.

"It's my duty to follow Khun Phayu's orders and beside him, no one. So you can do whatever you want," the guard said in a neutral tone.

Rain smirked internally. "Then you watch," Rain said and pushed the guard aside, catching him off guard and entered the meeting room. Before the guard could stop him, Rain was already inside the meeting room, with every eye on him. The room was full of people, but he didn't care. His eyes fell on the person who was sitting at the main chair with an aura like a king.
