"Helena."

Helena turned her head slightly to answer the call. She knew immediately who was calling her: Arslan Tan. What can this man possibly want from me here? Of course, Arslan could show up at a party like this. On top of that, her fiancé was attending this auction, right?

"You're here?" Arslan said, looking surprised to see his ex-wife at the event. "If you were planning on coming here, I could have picked you up."

Helena was so surprised by this that she had to face the towering figure in front of her. Her eyes met Arslan's, but she looked questioningly, but dismissively, at him. Helena had her hands folded across her chest. "You want to pick me up?"

"It's not a bad thing to build a good relationship with a client, right?" Arslan gave a little smile. A smile that had once fascinated Helena. But tonight, Helena thought it looked pretty gross.

"Really?" Helena gave a little grin. "If I wasn't your most important client, would you still do that?" The woman didn't react at all. Inst

    "How was the auction last night?" Hanry Edison asked in a voice that still sounded a little weak."Papa," Helena said, looking annoyed. "I told you not to stress about anything other than your health." She made sure her father was comfortable. "The doctor said you should get plenty of rest. As for Edison Group and Nakia, Thomas and I will take care of that."Hanry gave a little smile. "What's wrong with me wanting to know what event Darius is attending?" The middle-aged man gazed at his daughter with a longing look. "I'm also happy to have your back, Helena."Helena gave a little smile. Her eyes were a little teary. The man she respected and loved so much had finally regained consciousness. After a critical period that was enough to make Helena's heart pound with fear, Hanry Edison finally came to his senses. God still gave Helena a chance to meet again."I'm sorry, Dad. I was too wrapped up in my own world. I didn't care about you," Helena said, her voice breaking into tears."Hey,"

    "I wasn't expecting to see you today, Helena." The middle-aged man, who was one of Edison's family doctors, was delighted to see Helena sitting in his room. "To be honest, I was quite worried about your father's condition. But I'm sure Doctor Samuel is doing his best. He's a very competent heart doctor."Helena gave a little smile. "You're right." She made herself at home in her seat. "Please stop by and see Papa when you get a chance, Doctor Adi. I'm sure Papa will be happy to see you.""I will, Helena." Adi adjusted his glasses. "Any issues with the pregnancy? You've been taking all your vitamins and medicine, right?""Not at all." Helena gave a big, warm smile. "I'd like to know how things are going. I don't feel like this pregnancy is a burden at all. Wilna says I should be grateful. This baby gets that I've got a lot on my plate."Doctor Adi let out a chuckle. "Wilna's right. There's no need to worry. Some women don't feel anything during the early stages of their first trimester

    "Thanks," Helena said to the guy who showed her to the lobby door. She didn't deserve to be treated like this, but without realizing it, they were chatting about light but pleasant things. Maybe it was Michael's friendly and polite manner that made it okay for Helena to talk about the hospital."I hope we can meet again soon."Helena let out a laugh. "Well, I'll let you get on with your day, Doctor Michael. "It was a pleasure talking with you."Michael nodded and gave a bright smile. Helena was driven away from the hospital area in a black luxury car.Michael didn't want to leave just yet, but he wanted to make sure the car she was in actually left the hospital.Michael was ready to get back to work, so he reached for his cell phone to give the person watching Helena a quick update."Yes, Mr. Michael. I'll stay away from Miss Helena's car and let you know what's going on as soon as I can.""Good." Michael ended the call. He gave the orders to his team pretty quickly. But before he got

    "Tiara," Deny Jacob called out, sounding concerned. The maid at his house said that since she got back a few hours ago, Tiara hadn't left the room. As a father, especially when his daughter was pregnant, he couldn't just leave her to it. On top of that, Tiara didn't go to the office at all today, just to take care of her part.This clearly worried Deny."Yes, Pa?" Tiara came out with a big smile on her face. Her face looked normal, as if there was nothing to worry about."What's going on?"Tiara's brow furrowed in surprise. "What's the problem?" She was even surprised by her father's question just now."Is everything okay?" Deny asked, still looking at his daughter with surprise. "You haven't been at the office all day. Not even Arslan knows where you are."Tiara gave a big, warm smile. "Oh, Papa. There's no need to worry. I'm a bit tired, but I'm sure I'll feel much better after a good rest. On top of that, the doctor said I shouldn't push myself too hard. I've started to cut back on

    Mirna abruptly set down her teacup. She was still thinking about what happened at the auction that night. On top of not expecting to meet Helena, the woman she'd taken for granted suddenly appeared and seemed to have more influence than she'd realized.Many people said that there was some truth to that figure, but there was still a hint of disbelief. Mirna didn't like holding on to these kinds of feelings. She needed to prove it to herself because when she spoke with Helena that night, Helena left a rather annoying impression on her."Tsk! Why are women still so annoying?"Meanwhile, Yori, who had just gotten back from somewhere, decided to sit next to her mother with a bit of a lazy look on his face."How's it going?" Mirna asked right away. Don't let Yori's return go to waste."I've been looking into Helena. Everyone I've spoken to has given the same answer. As it turns out, the rumors about the Edison family's youngest daughter are true. She doesn't socialize much. She's abroad, co

    "I heard you didn't go to the office today, Helena?" Thomas said as he enjoyed the salad that was his dessert tonight."Yes, I'm seeing Doctor Adi today." Helena didn't keep her pregnancy a secret from her brother. "He said he's sorry he couldn't make it to see Papa."Thomas let out a soft sigh. "How long are you planning to keep this on the down low? You know, it's a bit of a burden for me.""I'm not asking you to overthink this," Helena said, looking at her brother with frustration. "After all, you're the one who decided to find out what happened to me, right? I didn't plan to tell anyone but Wilna.""You're such an annoying sister, Helena.""Thanks for the compliment." Helena went back to enjoying her meal. The potato soup with chunks of meat, made by the chef at home, tasted just right on her tongue. "This is really good. I like it."Helena looked over at Gina, who was standing nearby. Gina was always on hand to help Helena with whatever she needed at home. This also meant making

    "My advice would be not to talk to Michael," Tiara said while making sure her dress fit correctly. The white dress with crystals on the chest looked really elegant and expensive. Tiara isn't interested in a simple wedding party. In particular, the dresses and decorations during the procession should be eye-catching and generate a lot of conversation for the next few days.Yori, who had been helping Tiara get dressed, looked surprised. "Why are you suggesting that?""Are you being foolish or are you just too naive?" Tiara let out a laugh. "Michael works at the hospital, right? Who reached out to him first? It was Helena. I caught them at the hospital, which means... Helena approached Michael on a whim. I'm sure your boyfriend couldn't possibly refuse, right?"Yori blinked in confusion, but then she noticed her hands were firmly clenched. "You're right. Why didn't I think of that?" The younger woman followed Tiara's lead and went over to the large mirror. The dress was quite heavy, but

    Helena knew this annoying woman would be at the inauguration event. But Helena hadn't expected to run into Tiara so soon. And right in the middle of all the invited guests. Was Tiara trying to cause a scene on purpose? Should she confront her?"I'm curious, how did you end up at an event like this, Helena?"This time it was Yori, Helena's former sister-in-law, who spoke up. It was clear that she was with Tiara. And let's not forget the middle-aged woman standing not far from them. Didn't they seem like a group of women who liked to put others down?"Oh, Yori. We should have guessed that her arrival must have been supported by someone." Mirna said, folding her arms across her chest. "You want to greet the event owner? Hmph! She won't even recognize you!"Helena gave a small, amused smile. "As a guest, I should say hello to the event owner. At least in the name of courtesy."Tiara rolled her eyes in frustration. "You'd better leave, Helena. You're not exactly a looker.""Is Tiara Jacob

    “How was your meeting with Angga?” asked Lily, raising an eyebrow. Teasing Gadis, who had met her boyfriend, was the latest fad for the girl who loved white. Especially since Gadis and Angga had to do long-distance dating since returning from Solo. If Gadis said so, that was the risk of being with a prospective doctor.They were at a ramen shop in Bintaro Plaza. Rather than spending the weekend sulking, when Lily invited her out for a moment to the mall area closest to their dorm, Gadis just agreed. Besides, she had nothing to do this afternoon. Considering that her mood was ruined this morning, she was also curious about the afternoon but didn't want to leave the room, so while Gadis' mood was improving a bit, it would be better if she relieved her fatigue a little.“That's how it is,” said Gadis as she took a big bite of her ice cream spoon. Luckily for them, even though it was the weekend, the mall wasn't that crowded. Only a handful of peopl

    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

    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

    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

    “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

    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
