Michael took a moment to consider the words that should leave his mouth. Although Hanry was staring at him with a friendly gaze, it still had a rather dramatic effect on Michael. He knew that if Hanry Edison had questioned him directly, it was likely that his father had already spoken to Hanry about his wishes.

Wouldn't it be better if they knew? But why did it feel like such a burden to Michael this morning? Was it the way Hanry Edison looked at him? Or did the voice of the middle-aged man who had questioned his decision sound uneasy?

“You are right, Mr. Hanry.”

“It took you long enough to give me the answer to that question.” Hanry smiled slightly. He chose to sit back on the sofa. “Can we talk about this? It may seem that I should have chosen a much more convenient time than this morning, but given what you've been through and what you can see for yourself about Helena, I couldn't resist."

“I understand,” Michael said as he followed Hanry's lead. He took a seat directly opposite th

    Helena looked at Michael with a curious look on her face that could not be hidden. Ever since they got into the car and headed for the trial, Helena had been observing Michael's movements, which seemed much calmer than usual. However, there was something nagging at her heart. She was sure that the conversation between Michael and his father was not just a simple conversation. She wanted to know what really happened in the living room today."Are you sure you don't have anything to tell me?" Helena asked once again, this time in a slightly demanding tone.Michael, who was focused on the road ahead, glanced briefly at Helena with a faint smile on his face. “I promise, Helena. I'll tell you after the court hearing is over. For now, isn't it most important to focus on the court proceedings? You need full concentration, and I don't want to disturb your mind with anything else.”Helena frowned, her forehead furrowed, clearly not satisfied with Michael's ambiguous answer. However, she knew t

    “This can't be allowed,” Michael thought with his hands clenched tightly. It seemed that the glasses man wasn't the only one who seemed annoyed and disgusted by the figure in front of them. Wilna was also displaying an obvious look of dislike, which she had no intention of covering up or getting rid of quickly.“I won't let this man bother Helena again,” he murmured to himself. Michael had to do something. The man's gaze sharpened on Arslan, who was still standing in an annoying manner in front of them. His eyes hardened, showing just how displeased he was with the presence of Helena's ex-husband. Not only because Arslan had a bad record with Helena in Michael's eyes. But also, because the man continued to be manipulative and ruthless."You don't need to take what he says so seriously, Helena," Michael finally said, his tone casual but also firm and caring. He didn't want to see Helena dragged back into Arslan's cunning game. “He's just trying to get your attention as usual.”Helena l

    Although Helena's words just now were quite disturbing to him, but the message that came to Arslan's cell phone made the man calm down a little. The expert witness brought in from Jacob Group was reliable. He should have subdued his ego in front of Tiara and asked for help from his father-in-law-Deny Jacob. So he wouldn't have to waste so much time and have such an annoying argument with Nakia's side.However, Arslan was the one who benefited the most from the problems he created. Tiara could be back in his hands and immediately in front of him, the woman who could give him the highest position and power at the top of the business, he must be able to control. He must not let his meeting with Helena go to waste.Arslan immediately ordered various dishes without really asking Helena if she wanted anything. Glasses of juice, coffee, and appetizers began to be placed on the table by the waiter, making the table full of food that Helena had absolutely no interest in eating.“You must eat a

    Arslan fixed the collar of his jacket with a quick movement. He tried to smile immediately and get rid of the discomfort caused by the conversation with Helena. Although it was a bit difficult, Arslan could not continue to focus on Helena's words and his ex-wife's attitude.“I think this is enough,” he said trying to calm down. Although there was really nothing that needed to be improved from his appearance. He was always well-groomed. Whatever the situation, Arslan always tried to keep his best appearance. Although there was one time when he ignored his appearance-during the chaos at Intel Corp related to the lauching event of Cyber's unit some time ago.So why did he bother to make sure his appearance was still well maintained? Actually, it was just a distraction from the nervousness that suddenly enveloped him as he exited the restaurant. Across the street, not far from the gate of the court building, Tiara stood waiting for him. Her face was flat, but her eyes were full of questio

    “Are you... okay, Helena?” asked Erick with a worried look. He was already eager to show off his latest findings - contrary to what they were discussing. Hoping that Helena would feel more optimistic about her victory.In Erick's eyes, Helena was not just a boss who paid him for the work he did. If it wasn't for Helena, he might not have wanted to leave the rental house that he had transformed into a space he loved. Working odd jobs but making much more money because of her intelligence. Helena Edison was her best friend during college. And the dark-haired woman never hesitated to lend Erick a helping hand when the orange-haired man got into trouble.So when there was a chance to return the favor, Erick would not hesitate to do so. After all, what Helena had to offer was far more than enough. Because of that too, Erick tried his best to support Helena in the part they had agreed on together.“I'm fine, Erick,” Helena said with a faint smile. “You don't have to look at me like that.”E

    “You look like someone who just won the lottery, Erick,” Helena could no longer contain her laughter. Since the hearing was dismissed, they were asked to prepare for the final hearing. The sentencing hearing for Arslan Tan and the people involved. And Helena wasn't going to miss that opportunity because really, this day was very unexpected for her.There were many questions that arose in Helena's mind. Especially where did Gio get the CCTV footage that was so valuable and exhibited at the most opportune time? Ah, Helena couldn't wait to find out all the things she seemed to have missed. However, there was no way she could ask Erick or Gio to explain right now. Wouldn't it be better to celebrate this small victory with a meal together?“You know, I didn't expect that kind of response. I thought they would come back and refute the video that Gio got. But I guess I had high expectations for the way they work. Especially when it comes to security.”Helena wanted to ask another question, b

    There was nothing Helena could do but smile cheerfully. Her heart felt relieved that she could fight for Nakia until she got this answer. At the very least, she could prove to herself that she was capable of taking on the huge responsibility of leading Nakia Group. And also as a big warning that if she's going to work with other parties, she should be much more thorough than before. If necessary, find out the company's track record before deciding whether to continue the cooperation contract, or if there are some additional agreements.Besides having Erick who is good at finding information, no matter how detailed it is, it seems that if he recruits Gio, it could be even better for the IT team. Maybe he would talk to Wilna if all his business with the court was done.Because this was only one of the two cases he wanted to drag until he got real justice. But for now, he had to hold back. As soon as the time was right, he would move until the people who had made him have such intentions

    On the way home, accompanied by the glittering lights of the city, Helena and Michael enjoy a quiet moment after an emotional day. The atmosphere in the car was peaceful, a far cry from the tension they'd faced over the past few weeks. Michael, who was sitting in the driving seat, smiled slightly as he glanced at Helena beside him.The little celebration at the restaurant had been a lot of fun and felt very appropriate after all the days they had spent together.“Do you mind if it takes longer to get home?”“You want to visit somewhere?” asked Helena with a surprised look. Although they were still walking along the main road, but considering the traffic, they would be at Helena's house in less than 20 minutes.“Grab a cup of coffee maybe?” Michael chuckled. “That is, if you don't mind.”“I guess that's fine.” He laughed. “Besides, it's a nice night and it would be a shame if I didn't enjoy it, right?”“That's what I thought.”They laughed together then. Helena let Michael drive the ca

    “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. Her eyes seemed to be blazing but not just to encourage Gadis, but to retaliate for whatever that jerk did.Assisted by Lilo and King, they tracked d
