“Hey, wake up!”

I really wanted to throw something at this person who kept talking. It's so noisy. Even though I had just found myself sleeping in... I quickly opened my eyes as wide as I could. I just realized where I fell asleep this time.

“Finally woke up too.”

I heard the man beside me grumble. His hair was a bit messy, his shirt had been rolled up to my waist, and his blazer was no longer worn. I saw another appearance of Thomas Edison's figure that I think actually made his good looks go up a hundred percent.

One moment.

Me just complimenting him doesn't mean I have feelings for him. He's a man I'll cross off the list of men I want to be lovers, by the way. Looking at his track record as a man who has had many lovers, I'm completely distancing myself from having a special relationship with this man.

“I'm sorry,” I said while bowing slightly.

“No problem.” He also stretched his hand. For some reason, seeing him like this made me feel guilty. I shouldn't have fallen asleep on the

    "Wilna, do you know that the marketing department needs the most up-to-date input on the exhibition in three months? Have you prepared it?”I looked up as Thomas Edison's heavy voice filled my room. The guy just walked in without knocking on the door first. Really, this was the dozenth time I had protested his bad habit, but he didn't seem to care at all.It seemed like God had created Thomas as a challenge for me. So I had to extend my patience in order to face the man who had pulled out one of the chairs in front of me. Ready for a long talk that I'm sure won't be over in an hour. Ugh! I have a lot of work to do but I still have to deal with this guy? Seriously!“I've prepared it, sir,” I replied as I straightened my shoulders. My eyes glanced at the thick document lying neatly on the table. The work Thomas was asking about was really testing my patience. The financial reports of the last three months were a burden on my mind, not to mention the big exhibition plan that would become

    “Damn,” I grumbled with an annoyed step. The encounter with Charles had completely ruined my mood. I was hungry but because of the argument, my taste buds just disappeared. I had to fill my stomach immediately because my job as Helena's replacement could not be taken lightly.Along the way to Helena's room, I kept thinking about that shameless Charles. God, he showed me a very bad side. And I felt that the sadness and disappointment that my marriage had failed was not as bad as it seemed. I was indeed sad, because what I wanted and longed for had come to an abrupt end. With an affair that I never expected.But the more days I pass, the more grateful I am that the failure happened.Including the incident this afternoon.Perhaps because I was too busy with thoughts that didn't lead to work, I had unknowingly stepped closer to Helena's office. The elevator that took me to my floor destination also seemed to be moving quickly. Unfortunately... I haven't put anything in my stomach as food.

    Thomas really made me do a shitty morning activity. I had to wake up early, missing breakfast with Aunt Merry just to pick him up at the apartment. Ridiculously, I couldn't refuse not because I didn't have the courage. I saw that Thomas was really busy with his files. So... what that man was asking for wasn't just an excuse.He needs my help.So here I am now. Choosing a suit that suits him-tie, cufflinks, watch, and shoes. It must all match, or else I will get him angry. That's also why I had to take the time to study colors. It must be because the stuff in Thomas's clothes comes in a variety of colors.“Your clothes are ready,” I half shouted. I couldn't possibly talk in front of Thomas' bathroom door. Ugh! After sorting the clothes, I glanced at the dining table where there was nothing but a slice of bread with no jam on it.“How can he have so much energy with just two slices of bread?” I said as I opened the fridge. I took out the eggs, sliced beef, lettuce, tomato, and cucumber

    “Why is this happening to me?” I grumbled with a grumpy face. Really, dinner this time made me sick. Plus, Lily hasn't come home yet because she has work to finish immediately. At least if Lily joins us at the table, I can hold my temper a bit.What exactly is this asshole doing?“You don't have to bother bringing us a lot of food like this, Charles.”I heard my aunt speak in a friendly tone that was so sincere. Charles brought two large paper bags with the logo of a famous restaurant as gifts. I saw them as useless items in this house. Aunt Merry had prepared a separate dish for dinner.I stirred the food on my plate with no intention of actually eating it. Several times Aunt Merry offered me various delicious dishes at the dining table, but I refused. Really, I didn't want to eat the food Charles had brought for dinner this time.Uncle's voice talking about the house renovation plan sounded like the buzzing of mosquitoes in my ears. I only replied as needed, one or two words that I

    I really wanted to get rid of this uncomfortable feeling. Even though the vibe was quite relaxed and the song I was listening to was pleasant, it still felt awkward.“Where are we going, sir?” I asked. For the longest time. His answer? Just a big smile and a mischievous grin. Typical of a man named Thomas Edison. More often than not, he was annoying with his multiple desires, dizzying with so many detailed things he wanted, not to mention that sometimes he acted like a sulking five-year-old.I don't understand why so many people admire him. I know he has extraordinary capacity as a leader. But... I guess that's a performance Thomas often gives in front of many people. In front of me? It's a different story.Just like this afternoon. Even though his meeting schedule with Sofie had been arranged in such a way. It was a little difficult to contact the woman in the middle of her busy schedule with the launch of the new product she was managing. Sofie Ansela, the daughter of a rich family.

    Six months had passed since all the drama.“Is there a follow-up meeting?” Helena asked Wilna who was still going through some files. Because of Helena's question just now, Wilna looked up and stared at her best friend and boss. She seemed to think before she finally spoke.“I don't think so. Besides, all your dealings with the production and marketing teams have been handled by Gio. He's reliable.”Helena chuckled. “But afterward, he must have complained about a lot of things, especially that he couldn't go back to his apartment because he had too much work at Nakia.”Wilna spluttered. “Who told him to live so far away from the office?”“Sometimes I feel sorry for Gio. He's adapting a lot to his surroundings but there's no denying it, if that's what you have to do. Right?”Wilna nodded enthusiastically. “Should we ask him to transfer? Gio is a potential employee for Nakia, Helena. Do you know how much of an impact he could have on Nakia's survival?”“I know,” Helena replied immediate

    “What's got you in such a mood?” asked Wilna after returning from lunch. In her hand was the cup of coffee Helena had ordered. At first, she thought she would hear an exciting story from Helena about her meeting with her future in-laws. But there seemed to be something wrong here.Helena, who was originally cheerful, looked somber.“Nothing,” Helena said with a fake smile.Wilna raised one eyebrow, not believing Helena's words. She sat on the sofa in front of Helena and offered her the coffee she had brought. “Oh, come on, you can't fool me. How long have I known you?” Wilna asked as she savored her cup of coffee. “Your face looks more pathetic than any tragic play I've ever seen.”Helena just sighed as she took the coffee and sat next to Wilna. The heat that the coffee cup brought to her palm made Helena hold it tighter. She hoped Wilna would give up and stop asking questions. But who was she trying to fool? This was Wilna-the friend who could always get her to talk, even when she di

    Helena stood in the room with her suitcase open in front of her. Some of her clothes seemed to be scattered on the big bed, as well as some other necessities that she had to put in the suitcase. Occasionally, she looked out the window, where the mansion's garden looked green and beautiful.“Miss Helena, what else do you need?” asked Vania, the maid who assisted Helena during her stay at the main house.“I don't know, I'm confused,” Helena chuckled in disbelief. “I haven't traveled like this in a long time.”“I'll help you and make sure you don't leave anything behind while you're abroad.”“Thank you Vania.” At least Vania's words relieved her. “Don't forget my hairdyer. In case it's not provided there, I'm too lazy to find a new hairdryer.”“Yes, Miss Helena.”Hanry entered after knocking on the door.“Papa?” Helena looked surprised not by her father's arrival but by what was in his hand. “Let me carry it. Why don't you ask the servants to bring it here?” Helena grumbled. Hanri brough

    “LOOK WHAT YOU DID!”King winced in pain. Occasionally rubbing his ear and his waist which he felt ... “My waist must be blue. My ear is about to fall off again. Not to mention my arm that got scratched by your nails. You really deliberately sharpened your nails to hurt me.”“Shut up!” Gadis pouted in annoyance. Even though she was wearing a seat belt, she deliberately raised her legs onto the passenger seat. Her eyes would not give a friendly look to the man sitting next to her. Controlling the steering wheel and concentrating a little on the road to Bogor. Also ... pressing the gas pedal a little because they wasted a lot of time because of the Forest King Kingkong.“Shut up, how?” Kingkong chuckled. ‘Besides, if the ring is already on your finger, you can't run away, Pasaraya.”“You're really a bastard, huh!”“What do you mean, bastard?’ King straightened his thick hair. He adjusted his seat a little and then concentrated on the steering wheel again. “Instead of you being angry all

    Feeling like the center of attention again, King just laughed. “Oh my goodness, I'm sorry to bother you. Please continue. I'll just wait here.” But he walked over to Gadis's parents. He respectfully greeted them and then sat in the chair provided by Guy. “What's going on?” he asked in a half-whisper.“Gadis's ex-boyfriend is here. He wants his case dropped.” Lanang stared hatefully at the man, who was still flanked by his parents. ‘I just want to hit him!”King chuckled. ’Patience, bro. Patience. It doesn't always have to be solved with violence.”Tommy cleared his throat quite strongly. After the disturbance that came to interrupt them a little, he had to finish his business in this place immediately. He wouldn't waste any time because the lawyer who was helping Gadis's case kept urging the police to schedule a trial immediately. Tommy never imagined what would happen to Angga. How would his job go, wh

    [King: We're leaving to Bogor at 2 pm. Lo, are you ready? I don't want to wait. Afandi, pick up Lisa. This meeting, no one should be late.]The message was sent when Gadis was already fast asleep. She had a beautiful dream in which she was in Banda Neira, enjoying how God created that place so beautifully. Gadis didn't want to end the dream right away. This weekend, she returned to her parents' house. She also prepared to attend a work meeting with several other GreenTech branch offices spread across several cities, although not as big as the one in Jakarta. But GreenTech continues to grow and spread its wings.There were several representatives from the King division who had to attend the meeting, including Lisa and Gadis. Risna had already been there a few months before Gadis joined GreenTech. Harry and Panji were in the same class as Risna at the work meeting.Luckily, Gadis was used to getting up early. Although reluctant to leave,

    Even though it was Gadis's days at GreenTech again—fun and certainly busy besides having to keep arguing with King, there was also a lot of work she had to do. Especially related to King's latest project. Her boss and eternal enemy never gave her team a break to quickly finish what had been distributed. Among the most annoying things, King didn't tolerate mistakes.Gadis ... always had to endure King's anger because there was always something wrong. Even if it was small, for a perfectionist like King, it wasn't allowed to happen.“Damn it!” Gadis immediately pulled out her desk chair. ‘Damn you, Kingkong!’ she scolded as she sat down roughly, not caring that the sound of her butt hitting the seat was quite annoying. If only Gadis's weight was a bit too much, maybe the desk chair could break.“Hi,” Tania warned, giggling. ”Be patient, Dis. Be patient. Getting angry makes you age faster and realize how things feel.&r

    “You really don't care if you make people miserable,” Lilo laughed excitedly. He even held his stomach, which suddenly cramped from laughing so much this afternoon. ”No wonder they call you crazy.”“Not crazy bucin, Lo,” interrupted Mario who didn't want to lose. ‘Bulol. Stupid bucin.”“I'm not stupid, huh,’ King snapped. ”I still have the sanity to behave normally, even though the situation is reversed according to what I want.”“Angga is the stupid one, Mario. You can't understand the situation, can you?” Lilo was still laughing at Mario's remark. “But people like Angga need to be taught a lesson. I haven't heard the latest news about the arrest of that guy.”“It won't be long before it gets out, you know.” King grinned slightly. The glass of soda was almost empty. He had no intention of refilling it, and anyway, there was only a plate left of his

    “Aunty, I thought you were going to be a long time coming, Dis,” Priska approached Gadis who had just gotten out of the car. Her son's beloved vehicle, which no one was allowed to touch carelessly, was simply handed over by Gadis who appeared behind the wheel. Gadis's beautiful face made a big smile greet Priska's greeting.“King was so fussy, saying he didn't want to keep Auntie waiting,” replied Gadis, half grumbling. Originally, Gadis's lips were a little itchy because she called King by his real name. Being used to calling him Kingkong made Gadis feel uncomfortable. Even so, Gadis still knew how to behave, especially since she was dealing with King's mother.“That child,” Priska snapped. ”He shouldn't bother you when you're driving.”“Well, that's how his Auntie is.”Priska laughed. From the beginning of her acquaintance with Gadis and her strange relationship with her son, Priska had to rub

    “Good afternoon.”Budi had expected that there would be guests coming to visit his house. Including two men in full uniform with attributes. There was no commotion, but it had attracted the attention of the neighbors. Because it seemed that the lawyer and the police who came to the house were not joking and were acting exactly like Gadis's words that had suddenly gone viral on various social media.“Good afternoon, sir.” Budi greeted them warmly. His wife did the same even though she looked frightened and worried. For a while, Sheila was not allowed to leave the house for her safety and to protect her from the bad things that could have happened.Before long, a conversation between them took place. Budi didn't want to draw too much attention by speaking as loudly as possible to cause a commotion. He wanted the matter to be resolved peacefully as soon as possible. If his child was indeed guilty, he had to take full responsibility because e

    “All the reports and evidence that Ms. Gadis brought, I have submitted to the authorities. And I have also issued a summons to summon them and hold them accountable for their actions.” Albert looked furious after hearing Gadis's story during a casual conversation with Hendi just now.It's not that, in Albert's eyes, a man like Angga is nothing more than a coward hiding behind a sense of responsibility. Even though it was not a form of male responsibility, but rather the mental murder of a girl who sincerely loved him. Fortunately, Gadis Parasayu was able to escape Angga's clutches. Maybe that also made the man feel hurt and resentful of the treatment of his ex-lover. He felt that if he went viral with his past story with Gadis, it could attract sympathy and make Gadis be humiliated on social media.“Thank you very much, Mr. Albert.” Gadis looked at the man who she thought was about the same age as Mr. Ubud with a sympathetic look. ”I reall

    “I don't know what to say, Dis,” said Manda, shaking her head in disbelief. ‘You are so lucky to be able to get away from that jerk. Oh my gosh, I can't imagine if you ended up marrying him.”“Terrified, aren't you?’ Lily rubbed her own shoulder to get rid of the sudden feeling of discomfort. ”But actually I feel sorry for him too.”“Me too, actually,” said Gadis quietly. ”I don't know if Sheila knows this or not, but clearly all the accounts that made reports on Twitter also caused a stir, and they came from her account. Lilo also helped to get the cellphone that was used and ... connected to the bastard.”“You really have to reply without thinking anymore, sir. It's too much in my opinion.” Manda said with great enthusiasm.
