Not an Ordinary Shoe Sole Maker 43. Why, Dear?
Shane stared at his wife whose forehead suddenly puckered. He knew very well that she was holding a big question.Not wanting to make his wife wonder anymore, Shane did not delay in answering, "From books. You know that books are the window to the world. Anything can be learned from there."Charlotte relaxed a little at that answer, but she was still not satisfied. "But how come you're so fluent like that, Shane? Like you're already a pro."Shane smiled softly in response to his wife's response, who still had an unsure look in her eyes, "Yes, because I like to learn, so I don't half-ass it."Charlotte let out a long sigh. She knew her husband was no fool. Otherwise, he would not have been able to get clients or customers from the upper class.Her husband had excellent communication skills and she could see it in the way Shane spoke to the waitress earlier."Do you still have questions about the French?" Shane asked with a calm expression.Charlotte shook her head. Even if she asked ag

As soon as Shane and his wife left the French restaurant, the woman who had insulted Kirana earlier seemed to faint and fell to the floor.Some of the diners looked at her strangely, but she didn't seem to care."Oh, shit. What did I just do?" the woman ruffled her hair, feeling so frustrated.A female waitress approached her and said timidly, "Ms. Agatha, are you alright?"Two male waiters, including the one who served Shane and Charlotte, stood awkwardly with their faces already looking deathly pale.Agatha swatted away the servants' hands and snapped, "It's your fault. Why didn't you tell me that Mr. Shane was here?"The maidservant was immediately frightened while the male servant turned even paler.Exasperated, the woman in the fiery red suit said, "Come to my room right now. All of you!"Agatha got up and pointed with her index finger at the three maids as well as the two other staff who were already trembling in fear.In a fit of rage, Agatha walked to the room on the second fl

However, Agatha could do nothing else. She knew that she could only wait for tomorrow in silence.Meanwhile, Charlotte and Shane were still on their way to their house. If they had previously walked to the French restaurant, now they were back in a car whose driver Charlotte had memorized.Charlotte observed her husband who had just turned off his cell phone and did not hesitate to ask, "Why, Shane? How come his face is so serious."Shane winked and reflexively touched his own face, "Is it?""Yes. From the moment we got out of the restaurant, you were silent, then you looked really serious while holding your cell phone," Charlotte explained.Shane suddenly changed his facial expression and smiled at his wife, "Oh, you were still a bit upset earlier. Then this is serious when you're contacting people for work.""Oh, I see," Charlotte replied while nodding, not suspicious at all.Shane then said, "Charlotte, about the money for father, shall we give it tomorrow? I don't mean to procrast

Charlotte was of course annoyed, but she knew that whatever she said now would not change anything so she simply said, "I take my leave for work first, Dad, Mom. And ... congratulations, Gas for the promotion. Cecilia, I go first. It's getting late."Cecilia nodded with a happy smile, as if she'd managed to get one step ahead of her sister, while Barbara and Charles didn't respond to their daughter's words, ignoring her as if she wasn't there.Percy said, "When it's official, I'll invite you and Shane for the celebration."Charlotte responded with a small nod and quickly left the house after saying her greetings.She was not jealous. Not at all. She just did not want to hear any more insults or ridicule from her own family about her or her husband.Because, if she heard any more, she would definitely not be able to bear it anymore and would probably come out with a defense that might make her family upset with her.Me

Miko could only shrug, "I can't confirm that either, Sir."It wasn't that he didn't want to say that, but he himself felt that there wasn't much."So what? You are the one who meets Mr. Lee the most. Don't you know, Sir?" Damian asked again.Miko shook his head. He looked around the office on that floor, as if to make sure that no one would hear what he was saying.It would be very dangerous if anyone was listening to their conversation. Moreover, it was the leader's personal matter which was of course very confidential.Damian himself was quite hopeful that Miko would provide useful information for him since he didn't know too much about the company's leader.Miko said quietly, "I actually don't meet Mr. Lee often. Only a few times, when he was with his wife."Hearing that explanation, Damian couldn't resist asking, “Uh, Sir. What is Mr. Lee's wife like? Pretty?"Miko smiled, "Beautiful for sure, but ...

"Of course, Mr. Lee," Ferry replied obediently.In just a few seconds Ferry had prepared a file of the employee data referred to by Shane on a special tablet that Shane used for work.Shane immediately read the list without wasting time.However, just after he had read a few pages, Ferry said, "Sir, the meeting is about to start."Shane reluctantly handed the tablet back to his personal assistant and said, "I'll read it again later.""Yes, Sir. I will tell Mr. Damian later," Ferry replied.Shane got up from his chair and walked to the meeting room that was located only a few meters away from his room.The staff and employees who were not participating in the meeting looked up when they saw the handsome man who was the heir to Lee Shoes walking with his young assistant.A young girl staring at him without blinking said, "Why does he have to get married anyway? Being handsome and already owned by someone doesn't seem like s

"What is it, Mr. Shane?" Miko asked in astonishment.Shane immediately asked while pointing at Bagas who seemed to be talking to two men, "He ... is he an employee of this company?"Of course for that matter Miko had absolutely no idea and he turned to the young man standing beside him, asking for help.So the one who answered was Ferry who was always in the company as Shane's assistant who would do any work according to his orders, "He should be, Sir. He's wearing the company's employee identification card here."Shane immediately looked at the dark blue object hanging around Percy's neck and understood.Ferry added, "The blue color indicates that he is an employee or staff, the green color indicates that he is an employee in the production department, while red is for visitors or guests."Shane nodded and replied with a bit of offense, "I know the explanation of the colors, I just didn't pay much attention to the sign."Ferry

Agatha's beautiful gray contact lens-covered eyes widened perfectly at once, "You mean ... what? I don't understand, Sir."Shane sighed again, looking very tired.Ferry and some of the staff who knew Shane's character quite well realized that the super-handsome man was currently holding a great deal of resentment towards his employee.Shane was about to fire Agatha but he was the head of the European-style restaurant so he couldn't just dismiss people for flimsy reasons.Nor can he just walk away or ignore small problems that occur.Besides, Le Restaurant Jules Verne De S was the first restaurant he had built without his father's involvement so he would never willingly let the place have a bad image."Ferry," Shane called out.Ferry hurriedly handed Agatha a laptop.The girl quickly wiped away the tears that had fallen and looked confused at Shane."Just look at it!" Shane ordered again.Shane mo

Hearing the horrifying accusation, Charlotte immediately widened her eyes, "You can make it like that?"Meanwhile, shocked, Shane said, "Mom, I don't understand how you can think like that."Charles clucked his tongue in defeat at the words of his daughter and son-in-law. Instead, the old man said, "Shane. You are also a man."He stood up from his chair and looked at Shane as if assessing what his son-in-law was thinking. "And that's why I can also tell that you must be thinking of a foul plan to bring another woman into your household. Right?" Charles said with a slight glare.Barbara said again before the couple could argue, "You are, Charlotte. Wives, don't be so stupid and don't obey your husbands too much. Didn't you know you were being cheated on?"Mita was truly shocked by the drama that was usually presented on the television station. Unfortunately, now the drama was happening in front of her eyes and involving her. Oh, the young girl felt like she was on the set. She let o

Charlotte became increasingly uncomfortable and she then said to her husband, "Just a moment, Shane. Let Mita stop by for a moment. Earlier ... she was vomiting. When she's picked up, it's okay to go home." Shane was surprised to hear his wife's words so he asked, "Why did you vomit?""Well, Mita took the bus with me and it turns out she's never taken the bus before. So ... maybe because she was not used to it and was shocked that she vomited," Charlotte explained.Shane gaped and looked at his younger cousin with a shocked gaze. In his gaze, it was as if he was asking, 'Are you taking the bus? Isn't that wrong?'However, Mita casually answered her cousin's gaze by saying, "Look, Shane. I ... feel close to Charlotte and like being friends with her. So, even though I almost couldn't make it on the bus, I still wanted to come here."Then, the young girl again gave a look like a little kitten and said again, "I've been struggling to vomit like this, how come I wasn't given permission t

"Wait a minute, Wina. Why is this going everywhere?" Charlotte replied with irritation.Mita also knew and could sense that her sister-in-law was very annoyed with the person they were talking to.Wina clucked her tongue and responded, "Yes, since you got married, you really rarely go out. You never join our neighborhood activities. Well, if your husband doesn't forbid you, who does?"Charlotte exhaled and tried to be more patient again, "Gosh, Wina. Can you not guess about anything including the reason why I never go out anymore or participate in neighborhood events?"Wina rolled her eyes as if reluctant to listen but Charlotte continued to explain, "Just so you know, I can't participate in neighborhood events around here because I don't have time.""Ih, you're really busy, Charlotte. You've never changed, being the best and feeling better than everyone else," Charlotte said, sounding sarcastic.Mita was quite surprised by the words that so clearly said that Charlotte had always had

As if she had forgotten that she was with Charlotte, Mita focused only on enduring the nausea that began to attack her.Charlotte herself who was watching the girl out of concern immediately took a plastic bag from her pocket."Are you nauseous, Mit?" Charlotte asked in a tone that sounded very worried.Mita swallowed her saliva with difficulty. She seemed to know that she was not well due to the constant shaking that had caused her stomach to churn.So when she heard Charlotte's question, she quickly nodded her head.Charlotte immediately offered a black plastic bag which made Mita even more nauseous. The girl subtly refused the object offered by her sister-in-law.Charlotte understood that and did not take offense. She then looked outside, "It's okay, we're about to arrive. Just hold on!"Mita nodded her head weakly this time because she really could barely hold back her nausea.The girl held her stomach as if commanding her body not to vomit before she reached their destination bus

Before Faye could reply to Charlotte, the young woman suddenly heard one of her close friends at the minimarket speak, "Never mind, Faye. When we debate with Charlotte, we lose."Faye clucked her tongue but then she nodded in agreement, "Oh, that's true. It feels like we never win when we argue with her.""Yeah, that's why it's useless so whatever Charlotte and her allies want to say," Abby said, who then pulled Faye's hand away from the area. Mita just shook her head at the behavior of her two coworkers and let out a long breath.The girl commented, "I wonder! They don't like you that much, Sister. How strange!" Charlotte just chuckled in response and instead asked Mita to help her with something else so that they would no longer discuss the matter. The day of preparation for the event held by the big company ended smoothly. Charlotte was quite exhausted when she said goodbye to her coworkers before she left the minimarket. Her husband could not pick her up so she walked alone t
Not an Ordinary Shoe Sole Maker 82. Feeling the Most Senior?
Cecilia and Percy were silent when they heard Charlotte's words as if they realized that even though they knew Charlotte was laughing at them, they could not argue anymore. Therefore, Charlotte casually said, "Well, I guess we have to excuse ourselves first, Dad, Mom."However, before Charlotte could pull her husband's hand away, he gently said, "Honey, wait a minute. I have something to give to mom and dad."Charles and Barbara looked at each other in confusion but they didn't respond and remained silent. Shane reached into his backpack and pulled out a white envelope and placed it next to his father-in-law's plate. "Dad, this is the money you asked for yesterday," Shane said.Barbara glared in shock, while Charles glanced at the envelope with a surprised look. Cecilia and Percy, meanwhile, only glanced at it. However, Shane didn't wait for his in-laws' reactions and instead got up from his chair. The young man said, "Excuse me, Dad. Charlotte seems to be tired and needs to rest

"Why should I be ashamed of my profession? Everything I do is halal and without cheating others," Shane said.Charlotte looked at her husband whose calmness was worth two thumbs up. "You freak! Having such a lowly profession, how come you still look proud," Cecilia said, openly insulting her brother-in-law. Shane smiled faintly and responded, "I am of course proud because even though my position is only that of a shoe repairman but ... I never bother others and I am independent."Surprisingly, Shane's words made Percy angry. In fact, Cecilia looked at Shane with an angry glare. "Independent? What can be considered independent? You and Charlotte are still staying at mom and dad's house." Cecilia said with a dismissive look. She then turned to her husband, "Look at me and Percy. We ... can be called independent because we have our own house and ... the house is in both of our names."But after saying that, Cecilia heard Charlotte laugh suddenly. "What the hell? Why are you laughing
Not an Ordinary Shoe Sole Maker 80. Percy's Company
"Why are you asking about Percy's company? You wouldn't know where his company is either," Barbara said in a mocking tone. Charles, who was not looking at Shane, also said, "Yes, even if you were told by Percy about the company where Percy works, you wouldn't know. So, why would you know?"Charlotte, who was beginning to see that her parents were beginning to act unfavorably toward her husband, let out a long sigh.She also looked at Percy and Cecilia who looked proud of themselves. In fact, she now understood why only she and Shane were invited to the event. Her sister Beatrice and her husband were not invited. Actually, she already felt strange when the thanksgiving celebration was held at her parents' house instead of Cecilia and Percy's own house. It turned out that it was because Cecilia and Percy were probably not sure if she and Shane would want to come to their house. The reason is that their purpose in inviting the couple was just to show off and that is now very clear i

"Brother, do you have amnesia or something?" Mita replied in a tone that sounded annoyed. The impatient Shane massaged his temples from dizziness but still responded, "There, hurry up. Tell me what you want, Mita. There's some work I need to get done right away."Mita clucked her tongue, "Oh, you're really busy being a person, Shane.""It's busy, not pretentious," Shane replied, whose patience was already running thin with his younger cousin who was really testing his patience. The young man gritted his teeth and held back his irritation and said, "If you don't speak within five seconds, I'll hang up the phone."Hearing a threat that sounded serious, Mita quickly said, "You know, Shane. How can you just hang up. I want to talk too.""Well, hurry up and don't take too long," Shane said.Shane took a deep breath and had even started smoothing his hair to overcome his irritation. "Shane, there's no way you wouldn't know about our company anniversary, right?" Mita suddenly said in a to
