 Awan smiled with satisfaction because his plan worked, just like secretary Diana who is very excited at seeing Sagara's disheveled face.

 Sagara started to voice his opinion against this marriage. "I don't want to marry Viona."

 'Yeah, sir. Don't agree.' Secretary Ken pleaded inside his head. He fully supports his master's decision

 "Why don't you want to marry Viona? Is it because she's not as beautiful and not as smart as Viola, hm?" Awan asked Sagara, trying to make him look bad.

 "It's not like that," said Sagara. "I just don't want to ruin Viona's future. She's still in high school, right? It's impossible for her to marry me at her age."

 "Isn't Viona going to graduate from school soon? So it doesn't really matter if she gets married with you now."

 "But ..."

 "If you want to cancel this marriage, it's fine. I won't force you, Ga." Awan pretended to give up

 'Dang, he is so annoying.' Sagara cursed

He felt as if he was on the edge of a high cliff and was cornered by a hungry lion.

 If he jumps, then he will die. If he doesn't jump, his body would be torn apart by fang of the hungry lion.

 The current situation was equally unfavorable to Sagara since both are bad.

 If Sagara accepts Viona as his wife, then his career will be even bleaker because he has a wife who is completely useless.

 But if he fails to get married today, then the chances of him being appointed as CEO again at the next board meeting will be very unlikely.

 Mr. Smith, the largest shareholder in the Samudra Group, is known for disliking people who have a history of failure in his life.

 He said that the man had never appointed a person who had failed in his life to serve as a leader in his companies.

 Even though it was just hearsay, Sagara didn't want to take any chances. He still had to choose a safe path, one that will not jeopardize his position as CEO of the Samudra Group.

 In other words, Sagara must be willing to marry Viona voluntarily or forcibly for the sake of his position.

 'Hm... Awan is quite scheming, being able to think of a brilliant plan like this.' Sagara thought. 'Looks like Cloud is doing his best to snatch the CEO's seat from me. He may not be one hundred percent sure about my disability.  So just in case, he tried to find another way to make me appear disfigured in the eyes of Mr. Smith. I won't let that happen. I'll bear it for a while. After all, when I am re-selected as the CEO for the next thirty years, I could easily divorce that stupid girl whenever I wanted to. Then, I can marry a woman I really love. '

 Sagara finally made his decision. "I am willing to marry Viona." He said firmly.

 Everyone around him became wide eyed. They hung their mouths in shock.

 "Sir!" Secretary Ken exclaimed.

 "Hurry up and dress Viona and marry us right away! I'm tired of being in this building." Sagara said firmly.

 "Yes sir." Mr. Sofyan and Mrs. Nadira nodded excitedly.

 Mr. Sofyan and Mrs. Nadira immediately approached their youngest child who was currently eating the fruit salad.

 "Dear Viona," Mrs. Sofyan called to the girl.

 Viona stopped eating and looked up at her mother.

 "Come with us!" You will be dressed by a reliable make-up artist. "

 "What for, mum? Besides, Vio already looks pretty. I don't need to be dressed by a make-up artist anymore. And anyways, Vio also prefers the results of Vio's own magical hands." Viona rejected.

 "Come on my dear, my love, mummy's cutest daughter." Mrs. Nadira persuaded. "You are going to be married to Young Master Saga, you know... so you have to look dazzling."

 "Oh my godd~ Vio, who is beautiful like an angel, will marry the handsome young master Saga?"

 "Yes, dear. Don't you want to marry him?"

 "I dooo!" Violet shouted in a loud voice and caused the attention of many peoples around her. "Vio really wants that, mum." Viona nodded repeatedly "Finally Vio's dream of marrying a handsome prince just like Young Master Saga can come true. Yihaaa!"

 Viona jogged around her parents with great joy.

 "Eh, isn't Young Master Saga supposed to marry sis Ola?" The girl asked when she realised that something was off.

 "Sis Ola suddenly disappeared somewhere. So you are have to replace her position, dear." Mr. Sofyan said.

 "Alright. Let's Go! Let's go to the room where I'm going to do my make up."Viona jumped enthusiastically.

 The girl took her parents' arms and dragged them into the make-up room excitedly.

 On the main table, Secretary Ken was eyeing Sagara with a murdering gaze. The one being stares was holding his head with both hands.

 "Young master how could you agree? You know that I like Viona." Secretary Ken said while pouting his lips forward and making his prestige sink suddenly to the bottom of the swamp.

 "It can't be helped. If I refuse this marriage, surely Awan will cheer with joy because he succeeded in destroying the achievements in my never-failing life."

 "Oh yeah, I just remembered. Mr. Smith would never choose someone who had failed in his life to become a leader in his company, huh."

 "Yeah, that's why I was forced to agree to marry Viona." Sagara said quickly "Take it easy, Ken. I won't even touch Viona's hair!" The young man promised

 "You have promised, sir." Secretary Ken stretched out his pinky finger towards Sagara.

 "Uh, what the heck? No need to use the little finger promise anymore, Ken. It's so childish."  Sagara refused while slapping his Secretary's hand lightly.

 "Anyway, you have to promise with your little finger, sir!" Secretary Ken insisted as he pointed his little finger back.

"Ok, ok, ok Sagara was forced to l**k his pinky finger to the little finger of the boy next to him

 "The thumbs too, sir!" Secretary Ken said eagerly.

 "Sigh," Sagara puts his thumb on his Secretary's thumb. "Are you satisfied?"

 "Yes," The man nodded. "But ...,"

 "But what else?" Sagara was starting to get annoyed.

 "I will continue to monitor Young Master's actions so that you won't make a mistake."

 "Fine. Whatever you say, do it, Ken." 

Sagara lifted both of his hands up, shaking his head at his secretary's childish behaviour.
