“Wow, if this goes on I could get fat,” said Gadis, chuckling. On her desk were several bengbeng, chocolate-layered biscuits, or other snacks as part of the payment for the Shoes bet. Even though Gadis had not guessed the color that King would wear this morning.
The man didn't do anything. Most of the time, King always went to Mr. Ubud's room, not knowing what they were talking about. Maybe it had something to do with his 1 billion project. Gadis doesn't cared even though she was driving all night last night, occasionally listening to King argue and express his opinion.
What King said about the meeting was true. And most of the time King communicated in English, which the man spoke so fluently. It didn't seem like he needed to think long to find the right word. King was indeed good at negotiating.
“Exciting, huh?” asked Tania, which surprised the girl. But then she laughed.
“Yes, you know. Exciting.”
“Every
Anyway, today Gadis is happy. She usually greets the weekend by sleeping in and lazing around even though she eventually cleans up, but this week she deliberately got up early. She has been busy since she opened her eyes and glanced at the wall of her rent house. She has also told her parents that her return this week has been delayed.“I want to meet Angga. While he's at a seminar in Jakarta,” said Gadis cheerfully. It was a Friday evening when Gadis was waiting for the bus. At the very least, her parents had to get some news about her not being able to go home this week.“Oh, that's good. Why wasn't he just invited home? While he's in Jakarta?” At the other end, Gadis's mother was also excited.The girl pouted but luckily their conversation was over the phone so her mother didn't need to see the look on the girl's face that she didn't really like her mother's response. Her mother should have understood Gadis also wanted to spend time with Angga. Longing is hard, to quote the words o
All Gadis could do was take out her earphones and put them on. She played her favorite song and enjoyed the journey to an area where almost all of Jakarta's residents gathered. She enjoyed the weekend with sports and culinary hunting in the available places.Until finally, they arrived at the Grand Indonesia parking lot. They chose to park behind the mall building, which stands strong, hiding the splendor that is one of Jakarta's images: the Grand Indonesia Mall.“We're going straight there, Doctor Angga,” said Amel with burning enthusiasm. ”See you again.”“Be careful. Let me know if anything happens.” Angga smiled slightly, letting the two noisy women leave him. At the hospital, both Amel and Rara were known as cheerful women. There was always something to talk about that made the atmosphere at the hospital even more lively, especially on night shifts. If they were just on duty without any conversation, they could be tempted by things that happened beyond reason.Gadis didn't care a
Angga stared at the food box that Gadis handed him. The twinkle in the eyes of the girl he had been dating for two years was really happy. She hoped Angga might give a little compliment or words that would make Gadis feel good. But to be honest, Angga didn't like it. At all.Let alone like it, he's not even interested in tasting it. It's not a matter of the side dish and what is presented in this neatly and beautifully arranged box. But ... he's like a kindergartner!“I've told you this before, haven't I?” Angga closed the food box that Gadis had given him. He sighed deeply as he stared at Gadis with a look of dislike. “I'm not a kindergarten kid you serve food like this to.”“But it's cute, you know.” The girl opened the returned box again. "Even though it looks like a kindergarten kid, it tastes good. You try it first, Dear," said Gadis as she took one of the slices of meat that she had stir-fried with bulgogi soy sauce. It tasted very tempting to the girl but ...“You eat it yourse
"Sign this document," Arslan said matter-of-factly. He entered the magnificent two-story house he'd worked so hard to build."What's the file, darling?" asked Helena in amazement. She was holding a tray of dinner she had prepared for her husband."Our divorce papers."The tray fell over. It made a disturbing noise and scattered a lot of broken glass. But none of this bothered Helena. The only thing that kept her from looking away was Arslan, who gave her a disgusted look."You are careless," Arslan scolded when he saw how much was scattered. "Rina!" he called to one of the servants in the house. Hurriedly, the woman named Rina came to them. Arslan's orders were things that had to be done immediately. If they didn't, they would face his wrath and a long lecture."Could you be more careful?" he reproached Helena. "Do you think what you have in your hands was bought for nothing?" Arslan glared disapprovingly. He gave Helena a look of annoyance, irritation and disgust.As if... Helena was
"Did you hear what Arslan wanted, Helena?"Helena turned her head to the source of the voice. Mirna's voice had been friendly and welcoming, but now? It was harsh, unfriendly, and gave the impression that Helena was someone who needed to be removed from this house immediately."But what Arslan wants is a divorce, mother," Helena said, still trying to speak politely. She had been taught since childhood to always speak politely and to respect the people around her. Even though Mirna's attitude made Helena more and more angry and disrespectful, she tried to bear it."So?" Mirna approached Helena immediately. "Why didn't you grant my son's wish?"Helena blinked in disbelief. She thought there was still some normal thinking left in her mother-in-law's head. Unfortunately, this was not the case. Instead, Helena got the impression that she was the one in the corner. It was clear from the look in Mirna's and Yori's eyes that they wanted Helena to leave the house immediately."Did you hear wha
A white sports car pulled into the yard of the two-story house where his girlfriend lived. A bespectacled man with a gentle, warm gaze got out of the car and walked confidently. He had hung his white suit neatly in the back seat. Don't wrinkle it, he doesn't like it. But his steps were stopped when he heard a commotion from inside the house."What's going on?" he asked with a deep frown. "Should... I go in now?"Suddenly he heard the sound of a heavy blow. The man had to shake his head in amazement and curiosity. And as soon as he stood in the doorway, he found an ominous scene. A woman had been struck hard on the cheek. Had he not remembered his purpose for coming to this house, he would have quickly gone to help the woman.To him, a man should never hit a woman. He was truly angry at a man who could do that to a woman."Ah... you've finally arrived, my love!"The scream made Michael realize where he was. He couldn't help but smile at the beautiful woman who came to him. He returned
Arslan was furious about Helena's disgusting behaviour today. What's so difficult about granting a divorce that he asked for so nicely? The reason he gave was also quite reasonable. If Helena feels hurt, she should be aware of her role in this house. Compared to this woman next to him, Helena meant nothing."Why did you stop Helena, dear?" asked Tiara with an annoyed look. She deliberately stopped Arslan from approaching Helena. Even though her wishes and goals were soon achieved, she could not let go easily if Arslan was still thinking about Helena."I need to talk to her for a moment, darling."Tiara frowned. Arslan gave Tiara's flushed cheek a gentle pat. And the intimate kiss that Arslan shamelessly gave, even in front of her family. That made Tiara blush. "You embarrass me, darling.""It's only for a moment and it may be the last time I see Helena. Don't worry." Arslan smiled slightly."What exactly are you going to do, Arslan?" asked Mirna in an unhappy voice. "Let the woman go.
"Should I say welcome back?" the person sitting next to Helena asked.The car that had picked them up continued to drive towards a point; Helena's residence, located on the outskirts of the city. It was cozy, peaceful and not too disturbed by the nauseating noise of the city.Helena cast a quick glance at the woman who worked under her control. The beautiful woman whose face was often featured in business magazines and important interviews about the Edison family business."I have a lot to tell you, but... is this the right time?""What do you have to ask?" asked Helena as she straightened her seat. "You're just my saber-rattler, Wilna."The woman, Wilna Djaya, laughed. She had to wipe the suddenly wet corners of her eyes. "I'm actually quite worried about what's happening to you right now. But I've warned you many times that your husband, whom you always defend, is not a good man."Helena was silent."And now this is the real face of your husband, isn't it?""Ex," Helena corrected im

Sleeping in an emotional state is not good. The heart is not too calm and sleep is not restful. Gadis felt it all until she woke up early in the morning. Her look was still wrinkled, her face was frowning and actually there was no desire in her heart to work.But ...“I'm not a child. If I take a sudden leave today, Kingkong will definitely win. Besides, why is his damn attitude getting worse every day? He just uses his authority as a boss at will.” She also pulled back the covers. The clock on the wall of her room showed only 4 a.m., but Gadis was used to getting up that early.First, she made her own lunch and packed a lunch. During her college years, she never forgot to bring lunch from home. Besides, she wouldn't waste the opportunity if, when making certain snacks, there were always college friends who ordered. It was not a bad idea to have extra snacks or money that could be saved to ease her college expenses.Secondly, she liked buy sna
“A billion?” Mario repeated with wide eyes in disbelief. ‘Using ZoomMeet?’ He folded his arms across his chest. ‘Can you not make so many excuses if you really want to be with Pasaraya? It's okay with me too." Mario chuckled. ”Sooner or later, I'll find out who you're really dating.”It felt like King didn't just want to swear, but to hit Mario on the head with the placemat in front of him. Unfortunately, if he did that, his mother could go on a rampage like a lion.“Whatever.” King shrugged. ”You can believe it or not, it's up to you.”Mario still showed a wide grin. “Look, Mr. King, you're the one who doesn't want to lose.” He moved his dining chair closer to King's. Dinner was over, but Priska wouldn't let them leave. Because of what?As soon as King left his chair, he would definitely go into the room. And Priska couldn't interrogate and listen to what Mario had to say. She could also find out what really happened. Priska couldn't miss out on news like this, especially regarding t
“Dis,” Lily called, looking at her best friend with concern. The fried rice that she had been craving to eat together no longer tasted good. Not because she hadn't eaten it, but... “You'll choke if you eat it like that.”“Danger, girl.” Manda warned. “Have a drink first.” She offered the cold water that Manda had just taken out of the refrigerator. “You've been grumbling all this time. You'll get old before you know how to taste!”“I'm getting old,” said Gadis immediately at the glass that Manda had just offered. she also tried to swallow her fried rice even though it was a bit difficult. one sip, the water in the glass ran aground. leaving her lips looking wet. her portion of fried rice was already a little left. not until two or three mouthfuls, Gadis' portion was only left in its place.“If that happens, you're blaming Kingkong's existence!” Gadis' eyes looked like they were emitting fire. Her breathing was roaring with displeasure, plus her hands were clenched into fists indicatin
Lily and Manda had just arrived at the living room of the rent house where Gadis lived. Luckily, Gadis could find a comfortable and cheap place. The price that Gadis paid every month was the same as the rent that Lily and Manda paid at the rent house where they lived. But the atmosphere and facilities were very different. It was more comfortable and enjoyable to live at Gadis's rent house.No wonder the rooms there are always full. And just when Gadis needed it, one of the residents at number 54 moved out. She said she was getting married and moving with her husband out of town.“Ugh, it's so nice to live here,” said Manda as she folded her arms across her chest. In front of them, there were already three servings of fried rice. Gadis wanted to have dinner together but the menu Lily chose was fried rice complete with sunny side up eggs. For Gadis, the pickles were plentiful.“Yes. I'm jealous too. Anyway, if anyone moves out again, I'll move he
“You're not hypnotized anymore, are you?” King asked right behind Gadis.Obviously, the girl jumped in surprise. It's a good thing she didn't fall off her chair from the shock. “Besides being a Kingkong, you have a real talent for cosplay as a jelangkung.”King didn't care. He chose to pull up one of the chairs and sit down next to Gadis. His eyes stared at the girl's work screen which displayed worksheets and some of the things that were the responsibility of her subordinates.Seeing King looking serious, made Gadis little bit distanced. She didn't want to get too close and felt that this man's presence was really annoying. Always so random. Didn't King think that if anyone saw, they could misunderstand. Even though Gadis really didn't want to be close to a sworn enemy. Ew!“It's okay,“ King said with a chuckle. His grin seemed annoying if Gadis saw it.“Yeah, no way it would be wrong,” Gadis joked.
