“You need to take care of your health more than ever, Helena,” Adi warned. He was aware that the youngest daughter of the Edison family often disregarded her health issues. Although he hadn't seen Helena much in the past three years, Dr. Adi hadn't forgotten her complaints about her body condition.

"I'm not a child anymore," Helena said, looking a little annoyed. "You're just like your father. Chatty."

Adi let out a chuckle. "I'm sure your father is pleased with this news."

"You're right." Helena smiled broadly. "I'll let him know this weekend. Let's go, Dr. Adi. I'd love it if you could all come and have dinner together."

The middle-aged man nodded right away. “I hope I can find the time.”

"Thanks." Helena was ready to head out of Adi's spacious and comfortable office. The gynecological exam was thorough today, and Helena was happy with the results. If she keeps up her intake and doesn't get too tired, there's nothing to worry about. That was Doctor Adi's advice during the exam.

    Michael was taken aback. He quickly scanned the lobby and its surroundings. His legs felt tired. He knew he needed to work out more to build up his stamina for this. But for now, he didn't really have time to think about it. Michael needed to find Helena. He wasn't sure what he was going to talk to her about, but at least he knew where Helena was.What a pain in the neck his father is! He should have told him from the start what he was doing around the Tan family!"Oh, no!" Michael gave his hair a quick shake, annoyed. As he looked around, he couldn't see any sign of the woman with the bright brown eyes, even though the area seemed big and empty. "It's not like she could have just disappeared without a trace, right?"He let out a long sigh."Doctor," said one of the nurses who happened to be in the same corridor as Michael. "What's the problem?"Michael gave a little smile. He quickly pushed Helena out of his mind. "Nothing, thanks." "I just needed to get some fresh air."“I see.” The

    "I heard there's an important meeting today." Mirna asked her son, who was eating breakfast, if he knew anything about it. She was joined by her future daughter-in-law, who has been staying at her house more often to prepare for their wedding, which is just days away. Mirna didn't mind. In fact, she felt lucky and wanted to get the wedding over with as soon as possible.Mirna was able to keep her head up thanks to her relationship with Jacob's family, which was quite influential. She was quick to point out how lucky her son, Arslan, was to have a wife like Tiara. She didn't address the many questions about the woman who was previously with Arslan. "She'll only hold my son back as long as you know. "So why keep him on?"That's what Mirna said every time someone asked. But now she's not worried about that. She just wants to make Tiara her daughter-in-law right away."Yes, Mother," Arslan replied with a small smile. He looked the part, too—in a gray suit that was both elegant and classy.

    Wilna looked at the man sitting in front of her with a look of annoyance. If she hadn't remembered to keep her cool, she might have asked him to leave the meeting room. The man's face was as impassive as usual, as if what happened in his life didn't really affect anything. Calm and even, according to Wilna, he looked happy."Oh, shoot! I completely forgot about that! His mistress is Jacob's family's daughter. This could really help Arslan advance in his career. It would be great if Arslan knew who he got rid of for his mistress." Wilna thought to herself. She cleared her throat to get her attention back on track. “Let’s get started with the meeting, then.”Arslan gave a little smile. "Go ahead. I'm looking forward to discussing it with you."And so they spent some time talking about the cooperation that had to be agreed upon by both parties before the contract was signed. Wilna listened closely as the Intel Corp team gave their explanation, which included some extra info from Arslan.

    He quickly grabbed the cell phone on the table and made a call to the only person in authority. But he was interrupted by a quiet shake from the woman in front of him. Thomas was at a loss, looking into his sister's serious eyes.“You're making me angry, Helena,” Thomas said, trying to keep his annoyance in check. He wanted to make a phone call to Wilna. She needed to turn him down flat, whatever Arslan was offering. It was an interesting proposition, but after everything the man had done to Helena…Absolutely! There was no way Thomas would let Nakia, let alone the Edison Group, work with someone like that!"You've been giving me a hard time since the beginning," Helena said calmly. She took a slow sip of her warm milk, which she found to be a bit unpleasant. She frowned, feeling a bit uncomfortable, but she tried her best to take care of her future baby. "Are you not satisfied?" Helena added, “No problem.”"Oh my!" Thomas made a frustrated face. "I'm not sure what else to say to you,

    The luncheon this time can be said to be quite luxurious. Maybe it's because the parties that will cooperate need to show how social class of business they have. After all, if this cooperation continues, it is likely that the stock movements of these two companies will continue to soar over time. Don't let this rare opportunity go to waste, right?"Wow," Tiara couldn't stop laughing. "Nakia Group never messes around when it comes to showing its class."Arslan gently rubbed the back of his future wife's hand. "You're right. That's why I have to get this project, my dear. You know, not only does your father have great hopes for me, but this collaboration will also bring me to the beginning of the highest point."Tiara smiled broadly. "I will be at your side from now on until then. Because a woman like me deserves to be at your side, right?"Arslan nodded slightly. The picture of Helena he had met earlier had changed. Why did he still think of his ex-wife? Besides, Helena should be happy

    It took a while for Helena and Thomas to get to the banquet.Thomas was visibly frustrated and kept massaging his temples. Every so often, he paused and looked at his sister with a sharp gaze. “Are you sure about this?”“Yes, absolutely.” Helena replied without hesitation. "I really need Intel Corp. to cooperate on this. I asked Wilna to test the feasibility sample, and the results were pretty good. It seems that Intel has updated the program. I got the update from Wilna in an email."Thomas let out another sigh. "I'm not sure, Helena. After what that guy did, I don't want to see him around me. I can still find plenty of clients who are more capable than Intel Corp. I also heard that Jacob helped Intel Corp create the program they're now offering. You know, the Jacob Group has a pretty bad reputation, at least in my opinion. It's too risky for this partnership.""That issue has already been resolved. As I mentioned, I've already put together a sample test. That’s why I pushed for this

    "My mother asked you to drop by," Arslan said before closing the car door, where Tiara had already gotten in. The banquet was over, but Arslan still felt something was off.Aside from what Miss Wilna, the CEO of Nakia Group, said, Arslan still wasn't sure about the cooperation he proposed to Thomas Edison. Arslan is eager to hear the latest and will get the ball rolling on the next step as soon as he has the green light on the cooperation.Once more, Thomas' unexpected exit from the banquet left many of the guests wondering what had really happened. Oh, and one more thing: we haven't forgotten about Helena. Which Thomas found pretty annoying. How could his ex-wife be at such an important meeting?Given that Helena rarely socialized when she was with him, Arslan doubted that she could easily get a job. Arslan saw Helena as a wife who liked to stay at home and didn't do much other than take care of the house. She wasn't like other women who contributed a lot to the family.Helena was a

    Helena was really worried about her father, who was still lying helplessly with many tubes attached to his body. The doctor said his condition was more stable but it was still very scary for Helena.She couldn't imagine her father leaving her. Oh, God! Don't let these negative thoughts lodge too long in Helena's mind.“Helena,” Thomas called with concern. Helena also received a gentle rub on her head from Thomas. "Eat first. Don't get sick because of this. I'm sure the team of doctors did their best. Didn't you hear their explanation?"Helena turned her head with a sad look. "Yes, Thomas. But I've lost my appetite. I want Papa to wake up soon." She took her father's weak hand and held it as tightly as she could. "Papa, this is Helena. I'm home. Please wake up quickly."Thomas let out a long sigh. After all, Helena was his youngest sister who was spoiled and loved her father very much. Helena must have been so sad to see her father in this condition. Thomas did keep his father's illnes

    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.
