I am Agneta Laurinda Aretina; currently, I am 23 years old. I work for a large company in the field of Apparel, textiles, and fashion, which has been successful. I feel lucky to be able to work for this company, even if only in the marketing department.
I'm currently preparing breakfast for us.
Oops! I haven't told you I have a little prince, have I? Well, now I have a little angel named Regan Danial. He is already four years old.
"Morning, Mother!" He cheerfully made me smile.
Regan is the reason I survived until now. Regan is also the one who got me excited again after all this time enduring incurable pain.
"Morning, Mother's Prince." I kissed Regan's chubby cheek.
Even though he was only four years old, Regan was a nimble and intelligent child. He was even the top student in kindergarten. His oriental face, or mulatto, makes him even more handsome. However, just by looking at his face, it reminds me of the jerk who has ruined my life. The first and last man I really hated and never wanted to meet again in my life
"Why are you looking at Egan so intently? Egan is very handsome, huh?" He chirps with a lisp, making me smile broadly.
They even have the same character—so confident, and I don't want Regan to look like that guy, not at all.
"You are very handsome, honey. Let's have breakfast!" I held his body and sat him on the bar stool in my small rented house. "Egan, maybe Mom will be a little busy at work and can't pick you up home. You can go home by yourself and go to Aunt Iren's house, right?" I said this because today is the day I welcome my new boss.
"Let me pick him up." Someone's words made Egan and I look towards the sound of a man wearing a black suit standing in the doorway. He smiled sweetly at us.
"Aiden's father!" Egan shouted and ran to Aiden.
"Daddy master!" Aiden lifted Egan's body into the air, making him laugh gleefully.
He is Aiden Zharil Pratama, a kind-hearted man who has filled my heart all this time. He was able to accept me because I already have children. In fact, he also loved Regan so much that it was as if she were his own biological child.
"Good morning, dear."
The whisper jolted me back to reality. I didn't realize that Aiden was already standing next to me. I smiled at him and went to prepare breakfast for him too.
"Aren't you going to be busy? Aren't you, as the CEO's representative, really in need of his presence?" I asked.
Aiden is the deputy CEO at the Wiratama Group, also known as the WT Group corporation. I work for the largest Apparel, textile, and Fashion company in Indonesia and abroad, including in several developed countries.
"No, just let it be. Besides my cousin, who just came back from London and became the CEO, He won't need me. So Dad will pick up Regan later." Aiden pinched Regan's cheek, making her cheer up.
I can only smile and be happy to see the cohesiveness between the two of them. I'm also grateful that when my life was destroyed and there was no place for me to stand, Aiden came to bring hope for me and Regan. I don't love him as much as he loves me, but I will try to love him with all my heart.
After dropping Regan off at school and leaving her with the teacher there, Aiden and I headed straight to the office. We split up in the parking lot because we were in different rooms.
This is where I am now, at my desk with several files piled up. Pak Wildan, the manager of the marketing department, has asked me to prepare several reports.
"Ta, don't you know? They say the replacement for the old CEO is still young, you know," Sonya chirps.
"So?" I asked.
Even when I came to the office, from the lobby to the hallways, everyone was gossiping about the new CEO, who was said to be young and very handsome.
Whatever.
"He said he was very handsome," Sonya chirped, making me roll my eyes out of embarrassment.
"You've said that many times, and this is probably the hundredth time," I said exaggeratedly.
"Bad, lol," he chuckled.
Immediately, several people came, excitedly broadcasting the news that the new CEO had arrived. We have to get ready soon because the CEO is currently touring all the divisions.
"I have to dress as prettily as possible," Sonya said, looking in the mirror and adding her makeup. I just shook my head.
"I'll go to Pak Wildan's room first." I quickly went to Pak Wildan's room, and Sonya just nodded her head in response.
I was in the middle of reporting some documents to Pak Wildan until the door to the room opened.
"Mr. Wildan, Mr. Wiratama has come." The notification made Mr. Wildan and I stand up from our seats.
"Good afternoon,"
Degh!
He?
Right now, he was standing in front of me with the same gaze. His sharp gaze was full of intimidation, and his face looked even more handsome and mature. After five years, he is now in front of me. I felt my world stop turning when his gaze again stabbed into the retina of my eyes. The same gaze that made me hate him and love him at the same time. However, he is the only person I want to avoid and eliminate from this world. He's the person I really don't want to see again in my life. He is Davero Anderson Wiratama!
***
"Welcome, Mr. Wiratama," said Mr. Wildan, making me realize that this was not a dream or a hallucination."Call me Dave," he said, still expressionless, his gaze fixed on me. I could feel his sharp gaze traversing my entire body as if to strip me naked. God, this asshole, how dare he?"Oh yes, Pak Dave, I am Wildan Handiansyah. I am the manager in the Marketing division, and this is Agneta Laurinda Aretina; she is the best employee in the marketing division at this company," explained Pak Wildan.I still stared at him hatefully; I even clenched my fists on both sides of my body. The wounds that I buried long ago are now coming back to the surface. There is a pain that is imprinted in the recesses of my heart. The wound is very painful because of the man in front of me.He stared back at me with a glare full of intimidation of his own. Absolutely nothing has changed; he is still the same Dave as he was five years ago. He walked towards me, making me take a step back to put some distanc
Tonight, I just finished cooking for Regan. I immediately sat beside him, who was engrossed in learning to write."Wow, Mother's child can already write the letter A, huh? Regan is so smart," I complimented while rubbing his head."Yes, Mother. Mrs. Gulu said, Egan was already good at writing," Regan said with a lisp, which made me not want to miss always kissing his chubby cheeks."Your Prince is hungry, isn't he?" I asked."Very tired, Mother. I don't want to eat," he said excitedly."Then let's fly to the dining table!" I lifted Regan's petite body and sat her on a chair at the dining table. "Landing successfully," I said, making him chuckle.Mom, cook what?" he asked, staring at the food on the table."Mother cooks Egan's favorite fried chicken," I said, taking her favorite rice and chicken thighs."Fun! The problem is that at Aunt Ilen's house, Egan doesn't eat fried chicken," he said.I smiled and handed him the food. "Eat a lot, unfortunately, Mother."I haven't told you who Ir
After cleaning my face in the bathroom, I quickly returned to my room.Dugh!I winced at bumping into someone. Looking down while walking is not good, and your forehead hurts when you rub it."Are you ok?" The bass sound made me look up at Aiden's familiar voice.He stared worriedly while I quickly hugged him. It doesn't matter if you're still in the office; you really can't stand the pain anymore."What's wrong, Netta?" he whispered while rubbing my back.No longer able to speak, I just cried in his arms."What is it, honey?" he said again softly.I let go of his hug to wipe away the tears. Now my face is not messy anymore. Aiden's soft hand stroked my wet cheek."Calm down. Everything is fine," he said, making me smile sweetly."I'm sorry, Mr. Aiden," I said when I realized where we were right now.I immediately distanced myself from Aiden and asked permission to go to my room. Aiden was still looking at me with confusion, but never mind. It's also impossible to tell her everything
Before I got to the bus stop, I screamed because a luxury car splashed a pool of muddy water all over my clothes. The luxury car stopped in front of me, and soon the driver got out of the car using a black umbrella. My hands clenched even tighter when I saw Davero approaching."Oops. Sorry, Agnes. I really didn't do it on purpose," he said innocently as he stood in front of me.I just snorted in annoyance because I didn't want to respond to anything and chose to leave immediately."Agnet!" Davero said, while I flinched as my wrist was grabbed by him. "Come in! I'll take you."I waved my hand vigorously in refusal and said, "No need, sir. Thank You. Excuse me."I rushed to leave, but again he took my arm. "As your boss, I order you to get in the car, Agneta!" said Davero with such pressure that it was hard for me to swallow.Like it or not, I obeyed his orders by getting into the car. He caught up and threw his umbrella into the backseat, quickly getting ready to drive the car. This he
Davero sat and stared intently at one point in front of him. His hand gripped a cocktail glass with a little ice mixed in. His memory drifted to the incident at Agneta's house. That kid, Regan, There was another feeling that Davero could feel, but he didn't know what was going on. The touch of Regan's tiny hand seemed to be able to reach his cold and dark heart. Davero had never liked small children, but the boy was an exception for him.He took out his cell phone and called someone to give orders."Find out about his life and report it to me immediately!"The line was then hung up, and Davero gulped down his drink before he heard a shriek."You're having a great time relaxing here, while I have to finish all the damn work!""Aiden?" he muttered."Well, it's me! I did not come as your representative in the company! I came as your cousin, and stop keeping me busy!""You are more mature and experienced than me. So it's natural for you to finish everything."Dave said it casually as he p
"Are you sure that she is the girl from your past, Dave?" asked Kay when she was in her superior's room."Are you doubting me, Kay?" asked Davero in a cold tone."It's not like that, but..." Key did not continue his words."Are you two uncomfortable working with me?" Davero asked, annoyed."You're taking things too seriously, Boss!" Key replied with a wry smile."Yes, don't take it too personally, Boss!" Kay said calmly, all of which made the corners of Dave's lips lift."Find out about Agneta's life, who is her husband and her child's biological father, understand?" Dave asked to make sure once again and made his two friends nod."Yes alright. We'll start right away, Boss. So don't worry, all matters are handled by experts." Kay and Key smiled, looking at each other."Seeing you guys like that actually looks so cute and adorable," Davero commented with a grin."Then we'll excuse you," said Kay, to which Key nodded, and they smiled wryly.The two of them stepped out of the room and a
Davero had just finished meeting with a client outside the office. Now he was in his limousine on the way home. His eyes stared out the car window; he recognized the road through Agneta's house and accidentally caught the figure of the little boy he had met a few days ago, Regan. The child was seen sitting on a swing in a deserted park. Davero immediately asked the driver to stop the car. He quickly smoothed down the front of his jacket before getting off to approach Regan."Not picked up yet?"Regan turned around; her round eyes, so cute and adorable, stared at Davero."Uncle?" Regan tried to remember a name.Davero, do you still remember?" asked Dave, making the boy nod enthusiastically."Uncle, Mother's work friend," Regan said with a lisp, which made Davero smile."Why are you alone?" Davero asked, still smiling.This is a rare occurrence, even very rare. Davero's figure smiled at a child, remembering the fact that Davero had never liked any child."Aunt Ilen hasn't picked up Egan
Agneta is restless at home. He had been tired of crying since hearing the last news from Iren. He was forced to go home early from work when he heard the news that Iren couldn't find Regan at school. Iren was indeed late picking her up because the motorcycle taxi that used to take her arrived late, but when she got there, it turned out that the school was empty and Regan wasn't around. Agneta had even gone there and looked for him, but she still couldn't find Regan. Agneta also contacted Aiden, but Aiden was having a meeting with Mr. Oktavio and said he would come right away when the meeting was over."Regan, where are you now?" sobbed Agnes.His heart pounded in pain. He had never lost Regan like this. Bad thoughts kept churning in her mind, especially now that cases of child kidnapping were rife, making Agneta even more worried and weak.Agneta's breath caught when she heard Regan's laughter. He ran out of the house, shouting the name of his baby. However, her eyes widened when she
Renata anxiously awaited the man, who the doctor was treating separately. After waiting a few minutes, he came out with the doctor and saw his jacket tucked in his arm, with his left arm bandaged."It's finished?" she asked."Already. Just being fried is not a serious wound. Next time, be careful. There are a lot of thieves around," he said."Thank you very much, Master.""Bastian," he said."Oh yes, Mr. Bastian. I am Renata, and this is my sister-in-law," said Renata."Angela," said Angela, shaking hands with Bastian."You already helped me earlier; how can I repay your help?" she asked."If we meet again, I will collect it," said Bastian, showing his charming smile."I must leave immediately."Renata wanted to speak again, but Bastian had already left the place."Ah, why did he leave so quickly, even though I haven't gotten his cellphone number yet?" Renata said it with a red face."You like it?" asked Angela, who had only been paying attention."His face is handsome, and the look i
Regan, Angela, and Renata have arrived in Denpasar, Bali. They were picked up by someone who brought them to a pavilion near Seminyak Bali Beach in Badung."Wow!" Angela exclaimed, seeing the pavilion close to the beach. So luxurious. Several maids greeted their arrival and immediately carried their cases."Well, how are you, my nephew?" That exclamation made Regan, Angela, and Renata look at the source of the sound. There were several people following a middle-aged man with glasses on his nose."Uncle Key," Regan said, shaking hands with the man who was Davero's father's confidant. "How are you, Roy?""Tsk, thanks to Bang Regan, I'm not doing my course work and overtime," Roy replied, making Regan smile a little.Roy is the son of Key, and he is a very reliable hacker. Even though he is still 20 years old and is currently completing his studies at a university in Bali,."Uncle twins. Where's Uncle Kay?" Renata asked, shaking the man."He's on business. It will come later," said Key.
Angela went down the stairs. When he woke up, Regan was not there beside him. Angela walked towards the kitchen, where Agneta was busy cooking with the household assistant there."Are you awake, son?" asked Agneta with a motherly smile."Yes Bun. Erm, did you see Regan?" she asked."He's jogging, usually to the upper area," explained Agneta, making Angela nod in understanding."Sit down. Mother will make hot tea for you," said Agneta.Ah, no need to bother, Bun.""It does not matter. Sit down," said Agneta, and Angela could only obey while playing on her cellphone, where she was chatting with Rita."Drink," said Agneta, who now took a seat opposite Angela."Thank you, Bun.""Equally love. How was your sleep? rest well?"Yes, Bun, it's quite cool and comfortable here," said Angela."I'm grateful.""Emm Renata is not visible. Is he out?" she asked."Yes. Today is his first day doing COAS," explained Agneta.Oh, Renata is doing koas here." Angela thought she'd be doing koas in London bec
Angela nodded in understanding. Angela only got to know the Regan family when they got married. Aunt Devara is the twin of Regan's father, Davero. Dan Devara is the mother of Calvin, who serves as GM at Regan's company.The car stopped in front of the villa's courtyard, where everyone welcomed them.Angela and Regan both got out of the car."Sis Angela…" Renata first hugged Angela very happily.Then Angela shook hands and hugged Agneta and Devara. Angela shook hands with Dave and also with Kevin, who is Devara's husband.They immediately invited Angela to enter the villa and escorted them both to Regan's room."This is your room," Angela said, looking around. There was a window made of glass, and inside was a miniature Batman with various poses."You like Batman?" asked Angela, approaching the window."Yes, since I was little, I liked to collect them," said Regan, who walked over to Angela and hugged her from behind. Regan kissed Angela's long neck in front of him."Regan…""I missed
Angela was enjoying soaking in soapy water and a massage with aromatherapy in the Jacuzzi. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the treatment.He gasped in surprise when someone joined him. Angela opened her eyes, and her gaze immediately met the sharp eyes of someone who was in front of her at close range."You're not asking me," he said, making Angela smile."You're sleeping," Angela said.Regan kissed Angela on the lips and took a seat beside her. He brought Angela to sit in front of him and let him rest her head on his broad chest. They enjoyed being together by playing with the soap bubbles that filled the Jacuzzi.Neither of them spoke; they both enjoyed each other's company.***Regan and Angela welcomed Ansel there with his colleagues by helicopter."Wow, the faces of the newlyweds are so bright," teased Ansel, who was now standing in front of Regan, who was embracing Angela casually."You really suck at the little cat's juices. So many red marks," he teased when he saw Angela's nec
Regan called someone. Through his cell phone. The body and the bomb had been wrapped in a large plastic bag and kept outside the house.Angela brought a cup of coffee for Regan and kept it on the table."Hello Roy.""….""I have a job for you.""….""Hack again, a subsidiary of Maettheree; lower the share price; let it drop," Regan said with a grin."….""Just do it."Regan hung up on him. Angela was still staring at Regan in confusion."Why?" Regan asked, raising an eyebrow."You want to destroy someone's company?" asked Angela, quite surprised, and Regan just chuckled."This is a new subsidiary company. At least a few million dollars in loss," Regan answered lightly."That's not bad," Angela said, making Regan chuckle again."That's payback for him, who has disturbed our honeymoon. Come sit down; let's watch an exciting show," Regan said, patting the sofa beside him.Angela took a seat beside Regan. They both looked at the laptop screen in front of them."Gosh, there are so many peo
BritainBenneit was reading some of the reports that Aluna had given him at the office. Soon there was a knock on the door."Enter…"Gilberd appeared there. Seeing Gilberd's presence, Aluna said goodbye and left Benneit's room."What is it?" asked Benneit as Gilberd took a seat across from Benneit."I've managed to find out who Fergus's supporters are," Gilberd said, and Benneit listened seriously."This really can't be taken lightly.""Who?""Mr. Julian from Switzerland." Benneit fell silent after hearing Gilberd's narrative. Mr. Julian is a big beacon for Britain and a big competitor for Gonemanus. Julian was no one else either; the man was Benneit and Dave's college friend. Something happened in the past between his family and the Wiratama family."Ben-?""Send some guards to the island where Regan and Angela are on their honeymoon. I'm afraid Julian will send assassins to their place," Benneit said, to which Gilberd nodded."I have to tell Dave.""So far, I haven't seen any movem
After breakfast, Angela ran to Regan, who was on the beach."I'm ready," Angela said, making Regan turn around, and he was quite surprised to see Angela wearing a sexy bikini with a thin cloth tied around her waist."Where are you going wearing clothes like that?" Regan asked, looking at his wife, who looked seductive. Black glasses perched on her head, and her hair was in beautiful, loose waves."I want to swim, like you promised yesterday. Today we didn't swim because it was fun playing on a speed boat," said Angela, turning her face red."Are there no other clothes?" she asked."Come on, Regan. At first, I didn't want to wear a swim suit.""What?" Regan looked irritated."He he… I knew you would be furious; that's why I put on this bikini. After all, it's just the two of us on this island.""Okay. I'll let you this time," Regan said, making Angela nod happily.They boarded the speed boat, and Regan returned to driving it."Regan, I want to ride it," Angela said.Regan pulled Angela
That morning, Angela woke up first and left Regan, who was still asleep. He plans to cook breakfast for both of them. Angela turned on music from her cell phone and started preparing all the ingredients to make breakfast. He also took out flour to make bread.Angela started working on it and got flour stuck to her cheeks. Somehow it stuck to her face, maybe because Angela was too passionate about cooking.Regan came out of the room wearing only boxer shorts and shirtless. He saw his wife so engrossed in dancing and singing along with the song. Regan smiled at Angela's adorable behavior. Angela is seen wearing Regan's oversized white shirt, where the arms are folded up to the elbows. Her long hair was rolled up to reveal her slender neck.Angela was seen mixing the dough in a fairly large place. He squealed in surprise when strong hands hugged him from behind and joined in stirring the dough with sensual movements as if to provoke Angela."Already up?" she asked."Hmmm…" Regan snorted
