Throughout their return flight to Maharlika, Arlan was incredibly nervous. He was overthinking a lot because of his last experience with the suicide bomber. He had almost lost his life at that time. Even after they had deplaned, Arlan was still on high alert.
"Boss! We're here to pick you up!" Karl and a team of bodyguards greeted him at the arrival section of the airport.
Arlan heaved a sigh of relief after seeing them. "Have you checked the airport for any potential threats?"
Karl nodded his head. "I sent our people to check every nook and cranny. You can rest assured, boss."
Karl and six other bodyguards surrounded Arlan as they escorted him out of the airport. The people at the scene were a bit surprised when they saw them and they started wondering about Arlan's identity.
Karl brought the armored Mazda CX-90. He opened the door for Arlan. The other bodyguards also entered their armored Toyota Avalon and flanked Arlan's car.
When they arrived at the mansion in Forbes Park, he immediately headed to his room to get some rest. Leandro had become a major threat to his life and he wouldn't be able to rest in peace if he was still around. He had to come up with a way to kill him soon or he would have so many sleepless nights. The feeling of being in constant fear for your safety wasn't good.
It was already nighttime when he woke up from his sleep. His head felt heavy so he asked a maid to bring him a pain reliever.
"Are you alright, boss?" Catherine asked while looking at Arlan with a worried gaze.
Arlan forced out a smile at her. "I'm fine. How is Joy? Is she doing great in school?" He didn't want to talk about himself so he asked her about her daughter.
Catherine was still worried about him, but since he didn't want to talk about it, she couldn't force him. "She is doing good. Her grades went up after she was tutored by the person you arranged. Thank you so much for taking care of my daughter, boss." She was beyond grateful for the kindness he had shown to them.
Arlan stood up and patted her shoulder. "I'm happy to hear that she is doing well. Just tell me if she needs anything." Arlan stepped out of the room after saying this.
Catherine felt warm in her heart. Although her boss didn't notice it, he was acting like a father figure for her daughter.
Arlan headed to the living room and instructed Thelma to prepare a hot tub for him. "Please ask someone to call a masseuse." He was not feeling well tonight and he hoped that a massage could help him alleviate his anxiety.
"Boss, if you don't mind, I can massage you. I was once a part-time masseuse when I was still in college." Thelma suggested, but she felt a bit embarrassed when she told him about her past. Some people had misconceptions about being a masseuse and they think that it was a job that offers dirty services. She was afraid that Arlan would think that she was a dirty woman.
Arlan stared at her, but he wasn't surprised by her words. Fredrinn was the person who referred them and he had already investigated their identity. Arlan already knew about his employees' past. "Alright. You can go to my room after I take a hot bath."
"Yes, boss!" Thelma heaved a sigh of relief as she nodded her head. Luckily, her boss wasn't a judgmental person.
Arlan leaned on the sofa and rubbed his temples. 'There are so many things to do. Is this the life of a big boss?' He sighed in his heart.
Not long later, Thelma came back to inform him that the hot tub was ready. "Boss, the tub is ready."
"Thanks." Arlan stood up and headed to the bathroom. He felt a bit refreshed after submerging himself in the hot tub.
He just stayed there for over thirty minutes before he stepped out of the tub. He then wore a white bathrobe before he went out of the bathroom.
"Why are you standing there?" Arlan was a bit surprised when he saw Thelma outside the bathroom.
Thelma grinned as she replied. "Boss, I was waiting for you here."
This girl didn't have to stand outside to wait for him, but he appreciated her thoughtfulness. "Thank you for waiting for me. Follow me to my room."
Thelma was starting to get nervous as she followed Arlan to his room. She knew that her boss was a principled man, but what if he asked her to do more than just a massage? Her thoughts were in a mess that she didn't even notice that they were already inside Arlan's room.
"Are you okay? What are you spacing out for?" Arlan's teasing voice echoed in her ears.
"Ah, nothing." Thelma hurriedly shook her head.
"Do you want me to lie face down?" Arlan smiled when he saw her expression. This woman was already in her thirties, but she still looked like someone in her twenties. She managed to preserve a youthful and curvaceous figure. She was even a natural which was quite rare nowadays.
Thelma nodded her head. "Yes, please."
"Alright." Arlan removed his bathrobe while covering his private organ with his hand. He then quickly lay face down on the bed.
Thelma was no longer an innocent woman and she had seen the bodies of a few men. However, they were nothing compared to her boss' almost perfect body. His chiseled abs and toned physique even aroused her inner desires.
Thelma quickly erased all her unhealthy thoughts and grabbed the massaging cream. She applied a generous amount of cream to her hands before smearing it into Arlan's broad shoulders. When she touched his skin, she felt that his body was strangely hot. As an experienced masseuse, she knew that it was a sign that a man was aroused or in a state of excitement.
