I REPAY MY HUSBAND'S BETRAYAL [45]
Tiara's face was bright and happy. Her meeting with Raline really put her in a good mood. At least when Tiara left Raline, the woman looked indecisive. Oh... Tiara wouldn't miss the slightest chance to get Helena shunned by others, especially her best friend."Miss Tiara," one of the employees greeted her. "I've done your job - sent the bouquet to the Nakia Group headquarters. The bouquet is for Miss Helena.""You didn't forget to give her an invitation, did you?""No, Miss."Tiara nodded happily. "What's on my schedule today?"The question made the assistant take out her notepad and check again, lest she be misinformed. "You just need to check on the final preparations for the wedding.""Ah, right. My wedding is in two weeks." The twinkle in Tiara's eyes sparkled even more."And Miss Helena has accepted the invitation to have lunch with you tomorrow at the Grill House Café."Tiara's pace slowed slightly, but then her smile widened. "Good. You know what to do.""Yes, Miss."Not long af

"So, your main job is a doctor?" Helena enquired, savoring the blueberry cheesecake in front of her. She wasn't sure why she wanted this as a snack to go with her cup of chamomile tea this afternoon. Of course, there was a figure there that surprised Helena."You could say that." Michael gave a polite smile. He really put a good distance between himself and the woman in front of him to make her feel comfortable. "But if I need to take care of something that involves an important client, I can leave the hospital grounds.""Too bad." Helena took another bite of her cake. "You're pretty talented with a scalpel, though. A lot of people would like you to pick up hours at other hospitals, right?""You know a lot about me." Michael let out a short laugh."It's only natural that I know who met me. Twice by accident, and this time it was completely unexpected.""There's no way I can refuse Tommy Andreas's orders. "He's pretty intimidating, so I'd better not resist his orders," Michael joked to

"So, what brings you to my office, Mr. Tan?" Helena asked, her voice calm. In front of her was a stack of files that Wilna had given her as a reference for their discussion. But Helena wasn't interested in discussing the current production. She was waiting for the right moment to grill Arslan about his work.The woman tried to stay calm and put on her best smile as she faced Arslan, who was really testing her patience. Sometimes she thought, "How could I have been so stupid to give my heart to a man I didn't know at all?"He's a cunning guy who's always trying to be at the top. He plays the part of needing support well, but he also puts pressure on you that you can't ignore."Is my visit inconvenient for you, Ms. Edison?" Arslan took a moment to straighten his back. Since his ex-wife showed up at the meeting, he hadn't looked away. Helena looked different than he remembered. After a while, Arslan started to doubt Helena's identity. In the end, though, he had to accept that the woman i

"Thank you for visiting." Helena was just going to show Arslan out to the door of her meeting room. Not long after Michael got there, Arslan said he had to leave. He said he had some urgent business to take care of.However, Helena thought it was just an excuse Arslan could use. Since then, her ex-husband had been keeping a close eye on Michael. It seemed like the man with the glasses was trying to intimidate people.As it turned out, Helena said that Arslan had ended up playing the role of the ultimate bully when Helena had a lot to do that day."I hope you can change your mind about my invitation.""Spend lunch or dinner with you?" Helena asked with a smile. "I don't want to be ambushed by someone who suddenly shows up. And then make a story with a really horrible headline."Arslan couldn't help but laugh along at the remark, which was accompanied by a dismissive laugh. "You really want a private atmosphere? Just let me know when you have a moment, and I'll make the arrangements. "N

"This is the latest report from our Quality Control department, Helena." Wilna quickly handed her the file that had just come out of the printer. It wasn't much, but what was on it was the most important part Helena needed to know."They work so fast." Helena laughed between her compliments. "I wonder what Arslan will say when he finds out there's a surprise inspection.""Maybe a tantrum?" Wilna added her own amused giggle. "That guy is really quite annoying, Helena. I suppose his reason for coming here wasn't just to discuss production and cooperation with Nakia, but to flirt with you as well.""Let it be." Helena adjusted her glasses. "I don't care what he does. The more he tried to get closer, the more I held on to him so he wouldn't let go. And when he realizes he's the one who's trapped, he won't be able to escape.""You're terrible, Helena." Wilna sat down in one of the chairs in front of Helena's desk. It was just a short distance from Helena's large desk, which was covered with

"Is something on your mind?" Tiara asked, looking curious. Since her fiancé picked her up in the office lobby, he'd been looking a bit burdened. On the way home, Arslan didn't say much. He just went along with all of Tiara's complaints. Normally, even though his tone was a bit annoying, Tiara always knew that Arslan was listening to her.But this time, Arslan was acting differently. Even after they got to the Tan family house, where Mirna and Yori had made a special dinner, Arslan still looked a bit out of place."Honey, Ar... Arslan."Arslan blinked in response to Tiara's voice. Then he looked at the person he was talking to, who had been standing close by. From the look in Tiara's eyes, Arslan could tell she wanted an explanation. Maybe it was because he'd been so focused on the production issue that suddenly fell apart."Nothing." Arslan gave a little smile, trying to calm Tiara down a bit. Try not to let on to his future wife about what happened at Intel Corp. Although Arslan thou

"Am I disturbing you?" Thomas enquired, picking up the snacks on the table. But just as he was about to swallow, he had the feeling that someone was watching him. When Wilna glanced over, it seemed like she wasn't too happy about Thomas eating the snacks she'd prepared for Helena."No problem, right?" Thomas asked, without any sense of guilt. "Is it okay if I eat this, Wilna?"Wilna tried to be patient. She couldn't go against Thomas, who was also her superior. "No problem, Mr. Thomas. No problem. I'll get Miss Helena something else to snack on." But every now and then, Wilna had to speak up a little more forcefully to deal with Thomas' behavior. "Because Miss Helena usually wants an afternoon snack. Miss Helena's pregnancy has meant a few changes to her diet."Thomas didn't say anything. "I forgot my sister was pregnant.""What's the reason for your visit, Thomas? Don't you have a lot of client meetings?"Helena just gave Thomas's childish behavior a quick once-over. She thought he w

"Do you think I should stop by and see Papa?" Tiara wanted to double-check one more time before letting Arslan drive the car out of the house area. Since her future husband got a call from his father, Tiara's feelings have been all over the place. Arslan's face was also more wrinkled and he looked stressed.At least Tiara wanted to help Arslan relieve some of the pressure he was feeling, even if she didn't know what was causing it."No need." Arslan tried to smile to reassure Tiara. It wasn't that he didn't want to invite Tiara, but he thought it would be better if she wrapped up with Deny Jacob and Warren first. On top of that, he wanted to show that he could still handle the problems that came up.That includes this unexpected incident."Okay then." Tiara was trying to show some flexibility. "I was asked by your mother to stay overnight. There are still a few things we need to discuss, particularly regarding Yori. You know, I get the feeling that your sister is feeling down because

The next morning, Helena woke up feeling much lighter and calmer. In fact, if Helena were to be honest, it was one of her best mornings ever. Waking up to a window with a beautiful, serene view of the city. The air was cool and made Helena feel at home on the balcony of her room.Today Helena planned to visit a museum that exhibited some famous artworks and if she was lucky, Helena wanted to bring one of them (if it sold) for her collection or to gift a client who loved artworks. It was for the benefit of her company as well since Helena did not rule out gift-giving as a strategy to make the partnership work.“I think it's time for me to go,” Helena said as she organized her small bag. She didn't want to leave anything behind. Today her father was not accompanying her. There was an invitation to lunch with an old acquaintance and of course, they discussed some important matters. It wasn't that Helena didn't want to be involved but she wanted to make the most of her time in Switzerland

“Good evening, Mr. Hanry and Helena,” Alaric greeted in a polite tone. He was waiting for Helena and her father to come out of the hotel for dinner. As per his promise to take them to one of the recommended restaurants not far from the hotel where they were staying.“The police chief isn't as busy as I thought,” Helena said with a laugh. She thanked Alaric for his concern just before he invited her to get into the car. Her father was already inside and sitting comfortably.“I've been busy but I've put in a lot of time to entertain you. When else will you visit this place?” Alaric laughed lightly. “Or are you planning to visit again?”“I don't know yet.”“Or... you, Mr. Hanry? I feel very honored to meet you in person. Many of the things I've heard about the Edison Group being what it is today are all thanks to you.”Hanry laughed. “I haven't kept up with the Edison Group for a long time. My son is doing well, I'm just an old man waiting for my bank account to fill up with the company'

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

“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

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

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.

“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

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

“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.
