"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

    "Miss Helena, we'll be at the Edison family's main house in a moment," Michael told her. He glanced into the rear-view mirror to make sure the woman in the passenger seat heard him.Since he was asked to stay close to Helena, Michael has followed her wherever she's gone, including now. He's attending the banquet held at the Edison family's main house. To be more precise, it's the banquet to welcome Helena back to the main house."I know," Helena replied with a small smile. "Everything went smoothly with the banquet preparations, right?""I haven't heard of any issues so far, Miss Helena."Helena's smile got even bigger. "Thanks, Michael. You've been a huge help to me. And can you not call me Miss Helena? It feels a bit awkward. I gave you a heads-up, didn't I? Or should I speak with Mr. Tommy Andreas?"Michael let out a short laugh. "You win. Well, umm... Helena?""It's always the woman who wins an argument with a man, isn't it?"Once again, Michael's laughter was the dominant sound.

    Tiara walked into her future husband's room with a confident stride. Two boutique workers were carrying several suits that would be worn for their upcoming wedding, following behind Tiara. Tiara's growing baby bump was on full display. After all, there was no way she could hide this pregnancy, right?"Can I come in, Darling?" Tiara asked in a pleasant tone. She kept knocking on Arslan's door, but she wasn't planning on waiting for him to answer. When she walked in, Arslan was, as usual, working on some files. But the man's face still looked the same as when he returned last night: agitated and stressed."You're here," Arslan said, trying to smile, but it was difficult because he was under a lot of pressure. He had to wrap things up soon before it was too late. While Arslan's proposal to Deny Jacob was reasonable, there was still the question of whether there was enough time to make the necessary fixes."Have a seat." One thing Arslan needed to focus on right now was his wedding. We ca

    Helena checked her watch. She still had a little time before her appointment. She was curious about what Tiara wanted to talk to her about. Even though she had a pretty good idea of what the meeting was going to be about, Helena still wanted to go ahead with it. She wasn't going to back down or let someone who had treated her unfairly get the better of her.Even so, she felt a bit lazy, considering how much she was enjoying the place."Helena," someone called, making her turn her head slightly. She was flabbergasted by what the caller had just said.Helena was spending the rest of the day relaxing in her father's mansion in the right wing. It's a cool, well-organized space with lots of plants that are well looked after. Helena was happy to spend time there, leaving Thomas to discuss some important matters while Wilna had said goodbye after lunch. She said she had something to take care of and would let Helena know as soon as she could."Who is he?" Helena asked, looking curious. "Is .

    "How's it going?" Deny Jacob asked, with a look that still showed emotion. What happened with Intel and what that could mean for the company because of what happened yesterday could have a big impact."We should have the repair results for you tomorrow, Mr. Deny." Arslan tried to stay calm. "I've asked the production manager to bring the repair samples over right away and take another look so we can avoid any problems.""What about the Cyber product? Everything's fine, right?""Yes," Arslan replied right away. "The shipment to the Cyber warehouse is on track to arrive today as scheduled. The samples they're testing came through just fine. I'm meeting with Mr. Baron tomorrow. We'll be discussing the results of products with Intel technology that are bound to catch a lot of people's attention." He gave a little smile that seemed to say he was happy with the results of this work."Good. Keep up the good work. I think you should also visit Nakia. Try to show you're sorry for what you did w

    "Should we really go to the office?" Michael asked again. He had to make sure his client was happy with the plan. Since her meeting with Tiara Jacob, Helena's been a bit more down than usual, even though she's not sure what was discussed."Yes, I've got something to talk over with Wilna." Helena just gave the matter a quick look and then went back to watching the road. The route was nice and free flowing, with minimal traffic, so the journey was smooth and fast."Okay." That was all Michael could say on the matter.While Helena still chose to stay quiet. There was nothing to worry about from the meeting, but it was just that... Helena felt a bit tired. Maybe it was because Tiara's energy was too negative, which made Helena feel drained. On top of that, she was serving Tiara's words, which sometimes went a bit far.Even so, Helena knew why Tiara wanted to meet with her. On top of that, Tiara wanted to talk about her relationship with Arslan, which Helena shouldn't get involved in. Give

    Nakia was surprised when a rather eccentric-looking man came into his office. He was wearing a black hoodie, slightly shabby jeans, and clearly visible panda eyes with a messy orange hair tie."Excuse me, can I see your ID?" a security guard stopped the eccentric man in his tracks. Even so, the man gave a little smile. He pulled out his wallet and ID."I'd like to see Helena. Could you please give her a call right away?"The security guard looked at the man with even more suspicion. He looked the man over, checking his ID and appearance. He felt like this guy was out of place. He was a very different type of person. The man's appearance on the card in his hand was very neat. He looked fit and healthy, but in front of him, he looked like someone who hadn't taken care of himself in a week."Excuse me, do you have an appointment scheduled?""Let's just say, Ron Weasley came by for a visit."The clerk gave a little smirk. "You're not one of the Harry Potter actors, are you?"The man with

    Today's the day. Her ex-husband's wedding is taking place. From the moment she woke up, Helena felt like herself. She felt no burden at all, not even a sense of sadness or disappointment. Maybe it was because of all the disappointment and heartache, plus what Arslan and Tiara did to her, that Helena just wasn't in the mood for love with Arslan anymore.After all, why should she hold on to it? While the man made the decision to remove Helena from his life and choose another woman who could support his success.Helena smiled as she thought back to her past."Ready to go?" Wilna came in without knocking on Helena's bedroom door. The small box held the blood-red diamond necklace Helena had won at an auction a few months ago. The black, crystal-studded dress that hugged Helena's body in a flattering way, combined with the strikingly colored necklace, made the woman look stunning even before she arrived at the party."Why am I not ready?" Helena let out a chuckle. "Could you put the necklac

    “Wow, the famous model candidate has finally returned to the cage,“ joked Afandi with a wink as he saw Gadis entering his work area. The one who was being teased just pouted as she pulled up her work chair. She sat back comfortably while taking a long sigh and unwinding her hair.“I'm really fed up with this dual job,” complained Gadis but then laughed.“You should be grateful because your income has doubled,” teased Panji, who had just arrived with a cup of coffee. ”Eh, do you want me to make you an iced cappuccino?”Gadis didn't immediately agree. Panji, Afandi, and Hary, when they offered help, there was always something they wanted. Gadis didn't want to get into more trouble than just asking for someone's private phone number.“How much do I need to pay?” asked Gadis with suspiciously narrowed eyes.Panji was clearly laughing hard. ”You're really sensitive about this kind of thing, Dis.”“Brother Panji, the price list is written on your forehead.”This time, the uproarious laughte

    “What are you doing, Dis?” asked Manda with great curiosity. This evening, they were eating for free. Apart from the many side dishes brought by her mother, Gadis, her friend kindly wanted to stay busy in the kitchen even though she had just returned from work. She also said that she was not too tired because she was being driven by a colleague from the office.Of course Manda and Lily were curious even though their hearts were happy because the money for this dinner could be used for other things.“Create a status,” replied Gadis briefly. Her mouth was still chewing the rice she had just cooked, complete with spicy basil chicken. ”To make the burning souls even hotter.”Manda's forehead wrinkled. “I didn't see the status you made, Dis. Where is it? I'm curious,” Manda quipped, now busy looking at her cellphone. There wasn't a trace of dinner left on her plate. Besides being delicious, it was also free. When else w

    Gadis stopped dead in her tracks. Reflexively, she held back King, who was walking alongside her, to stop.“Why?” King asked with an annoyed look. ‘They said they wanted to buy pudding. That's it,’ King pointed without feeling strange at all. ”That counter, right?”“Um... can you make a different route?”King stared at Gadis in surprise. “We can't. Why would we go around when we can go straight?” But then, King chose to tease Gadis who never stopped talking. “Or do you still want to be alone with me?”“Don't be crazy, okay.” Gadis chose to turn around. Even so, her eyes returned to the same point; the point that made her decide to cancel the event of buying her favorite pudding at the corner of the mall not far from where she was standing now.Even though during lunch with King it was not enjoyable at all; because this man really tests a girl's patience, there is so

    “Your schedule is also busy, huh,” King said as Gadis sat not far from his desk. He deliberately called the girl for a follow-up discussion. No, King had no intention of raising the flag of war this early.For him, this Monday felt special. At least he went to the office with a sense of enthusiasm even though he had to struggle with Jakarta's traffic jams again. Why is that? Because today is payday. Yoo-hoo ... the salary that will be deposited in his account this afternoon is what King has been waiting for all month. Apart from wanting to make sure that the bonus in his account is correct, there is something he wants to buy right away.“Well, that's how it is,” said Gadis, sighing softly.“Are you unusually not excited? Why? Are you giving up because of your busy schedule?” asked King, giggling. He also held out a planner that he had just made at home related to the division of work in his work division. He had even adjusted it to fit Gadis' schedule. Some of his other subordinates t

    Spending the weekend at your parents' house is fun. Nothing can match the taste of Gadis' mother's cooking. And one thing is for sure; her stomach is always full. Similar to her mother, Gadis loves to be in the kitchen. It feels like the greatest form of distraction that Gadis can do if she is there. Whatever she cooks, she will definitely get more appreciation.Especially with Manda and Lily joining her on weekends. They said, “Eating is free while there's still food left.”Fortunately, Maya never objected to the addition of two people who were the same age as her daughter.“If you're at home, you don't feel like going home,” said Lily as she lay down in the girl's room. They had just finished lunch with an appetizing side dish. Not to mention the snack that the girl had made that morning, making them reluctant to leave the table.“You have a really good life,” teased Gadis, not accepting it. "You don't help me either.”“We'll help you, okay,’ replied Manda, giggling. "Help you finis

    “Mom,” called Gadis quietly. She was a bit hesitant to talk about the problem that had been going around in her head for the last three days. Anyway, since Gadis met Angga's family and all the pressure that came with it, Gadis started to think; was their relationship real and healthy?“Yes?” The woman, who immediately looked at her with tenderness, approached Gadis. She was sitting and looking at the lunch menu without interest. This was the second time she had seen Gadis looking unenthusiastic.Gadis' return last night brought real joy to Maya's face. She had prepared many dishes that she would cook with Gadis. Remembering that Gadis hadn't been home for two weeks because she was busy at work, Maya tried not to ask too many questions because Gadis needed to adjust to her activities at the office.Maya has not forgotten all the help her eldest daughter has given to the family economy. Maya is very proud of Gadis and her acceptance and what she has done so far. That's why when Gadis sa

    During the two meetings that Gadis had with Angga's parents, which were fairly brief and only left an impression if they were both kind and friendly. But in this place, Gadis finally realized why Angga could be so selfish and not willing to lose at all.All of that was displayed in such a way, wrapped in an intimate dinner but according to Gadis, it was very different from the atmosphere of dinner at her house. Even though it was only a simple side dish and sometimes the portion of the side dish was shared so that everyone got the same amount, the feeling of family and intimacy and not wanting to leave immediately was really felt.Tonight, Gadis felt like leaving the table that served a variety of delicious dishes.“Here you go, sir. I've prepared it for you,” said Hilda, Angga's mother, who had been busy with her husband's plate. Meanwhile, her husband was busy with his cellphone and seemed to ignore the presence of his wife, children, and guests.No, Gadis did not expect a warm welc

    “I don't need to congratulate you, am I right?” asked King, who was still folding her arms across her chest. He and Gadis had just left Mr. Ubud's room. The final decision regarding Gadis's involvement in the project that Leo was working on received a very good response from the client. They even wanted to meet Gadis in person because they felt that Gadis had a face that fit their brand quite well.However, to maintain the continuity of the collaboration between GreenTech and Velue Jewelry, Leo did not immediately agree to this. He also wanted to see the public's response to the new face that would be alongside Ransi. And there was a lot of conversation that took up a lot of concentration for Leo, Ubud, and King.Even though King's face looked unfriendly when Leo told him the news, the man tried to be professional when discussing the part he had to work on to support the ad so that it could attract many enthusiasts.“I don't need congratulations from you,” said Gadis, sneering.

    Panji laughed. “Don't call me bro, it feels really old.”The girl just grimaced. Following Panji's steps who walked first and in the eyes of the girl, the man protected her from the many crowds who wanted to immediately enter the elevator area. Once away, the area around them was much more spacious.“Do you like working at GreenTech?”Gadis's forehead wrinkled deeply. “Why did you ask that? Is there ... another meaning?”Panji laughed again. ”Nothing. I was just wondering if what I felt when I first started working at GreenTech was the same as you.”“Don't you like it, Panji?”“I do,” Panji replied enthusiastically. "Even though Mr. Raja and all his magical antics make us angry,”“Oh, my goodness. I thought I was the only one who felt that way," Gadis interjected immediately. ”I think he just can't help being annoying and irritating. I don't know why, but there are creatures like him in the world.”Panji couldn't stop laughing. “Crazy! You really make your own boss look bad.”“But it'
