The two men lead Rina’s inside an expensive-looking SUV car. Rina would have thought that Eka would use his sports car often rather than an SUV. As if Roy is reading Rina’s mind, the gentleman told her that he usually left his sports car at home if he doesn’t have the attention to pick random girls in a nightclub.
Rina glared at Eka for using such a distasteful method, flaunting his wealth must be his hobby since the man doesn’t seem to be the type of man who would self introspect his mistakes. Eka glared at Roy, the detective just playfully winked at the impatient man. There’s a strange air of uneasiness in the air.
Mostly because Rina is still upset with the two men, mostly Eka who has yet to say anything about his action. As they get in the white SUV, Rina sits on the passenger seat next to the driver seat sullenly. Her brown eyes gazing on the night sky, looking for any sign of the sparkling stars that might heal her anxiety.

The three awkward people entered the fancy western restaurant under aunt Mindy’s name. They’re led into a VIP room, thanks to the soundproof wall they’re less disturbed in a way. Aunt Mindy came right after they entered the VIP room, it’s obvious that aunt Mindy and her husband were in an ominous mood.It seems their mood grows worse due to work-related issues, this only dampens Rina’s mood more further. Eka sits across the two adults and Rina is seated next to him grimly. As soon as all of them are seated, the meeting at the round table starts quite earlier than she thought. As expected, aunt Mindy scrutinized her every movement like a hawkThe old woman interrogated her like snakes, pretty much eyeing any Rina’s weakness. Rina was frozen stiff in her seats, but the men next to her tried to encourage her with a silent smile. Aunt Mindy started to ask about her education and her past jobs before meeting Eka, which she stated directly
Eka was quick on his feet as he immediately locked the opponent's movement by pulling his arm and disarming him with his aikido technique. If she remembers correctly, it’s a martial art technique that requires the user to lock the opponent's movement.It wasn’t her first experience, she was abducted before and this is another sleazy second attempt from these people.Roy was disarming the one who hoisted her up, it was a simple hit on the back but it somehow affects the man greatly. I fell with only Roy capturing Rina on time, his smile brightened when she landed perfectly on his grasp. Eka merely clicked his tongue when he saw Roy smiled. It was good teamwork between the two of them.She looked at the kidnappers who laid on the floor, unconscious. Rina stuck out her tongue at them happily. Mindy and Andrian merely eyed the commotions from afar, as if they’re silently judging Rina’s reaction. Roy put Rina down, the woman thanked the detect
The air inside the car was quiet since Roy wasn't there with them. Roy is acting as a pacifier, now that he’s not here, the two idiotic couple could only avoid each other gaze like plague. None of them could be honest with each other that’s for sure. Strangely enough, the president was the one who initiated the conversation.“Rina, how’s the deal with company Starmo?” He asked a work-related question.“Starmo? It’s that talent agency company right? I think we’re in the middle of finalizing our deal” Rina replied professionally.“Good, good” Eka smiled pleasantly. “They have lots of promising public figures that we can use to boost our TV station”.It’s quite surprising to see Eka’s company never had any contracts with any amazing talent agency. The content of the show is always about politics and government-related issues. Overall, his TV station is a hit amongst the
Eka and his wife arrived at home, followed by Nene’s parents shortly behind. The four of them walked together side by side without a hitch, it’s strange to see the sudden friendliness of Nene’s parents towards Rina. She knew how aggressive and fearful Nene’s parents are, this sudden change flabbergasted the president’s wife.“It appears our test invites unneeded attention” Mr. Andrian sighed. “For that, I apologize Rina”.“It’s fine, it’s an accident” Rina nodded to him.It was strange to see that female mercenary again at the restaurant, the enemy knew Tanaya’s schedule too much. The only thing she could think of is that someone leaked the info to the other party. However, it’s just a wild guess coming from a president’s wife. She’s unsure if she should ask Eka, but the next thing she knew, she was left alone with Mrs. Mindy.Apparently, Mr. Andrian drag
Mindy’s question baffled Rina’s, her cheeks reddened from the sudden blunt question. Her heart raced as the old woman's eyes penetrated her defense. Rina could feel naked in front of the gentle gaze of Mindy, Nene’s mother. Still, she was befuddled as to what she should answer.Her amber eyes looked at her, thinking whether she could tell the day where the men forced her into a threesome. It still upsets her nevertheless, and there’s no one she can trust enough to tell that shameful day. She thought of telling Nene, but she’s afraid of her scorn, even though she knew well that Nene grows soft on her.Her mind is telling her to ask Mindy about that, she swallowed her saliva and braced herself to ask Nene’s mother. She fidgeted her thumbs, twiddling them together anxiously.“Aunt Mindy, there’s something that I have to ask you” Rina braced herself.“Ask away dear” Mindy spoke gently.R
Eka just finished his meeting with Andrian, it was a pleasant meeting accompanied by a few wine drinks while they’re talking about job strategy. Andrian had some troubles in his line of works. He found out that there are several problems with the suppliers he invested in and Eka helped him and suggested to him the best way to counter such problems.The man has always been quick on his wits, he’s an excellent businessman for a reason. After handling the problematic deal of Andrian’s supplier, the president decided to return to his chamber and changed his formal outfit. However, unbeknownst to him, he happened to see Nene’s mother and Rina together, enjoying the warmth from the fireplace.He froze in his place and chose to listen to their conversation intently. The man could only chuckle at the girly talk he listened to. It’s a chance for him to tease his wife about this later. However, the last words he heard from his wife was how upset she
Roy and Rina sit next to the weakened president, his condition seems to worsened since he’s been groaning unstoppably and clutching on the edge of the blanket. Roy undressed him and put on his night pajamas, wiping the cold sweats on his body. The president’s wife's mind was engulfed in worries and fear of what’s going to happen to him.Like a trigger, she’s scared when she sees how ill Eka is. It just reminds her of the day when her mother had cancer. If they were to be more cautious and check-up every year, maybe that won’t happen to her mother. Until this day, her heart always screams whenever she sees her mother bedridden with the nauseating view of her using oxygen.Leukemia has always been a serious illness, an illness that she usually watched on Indonesia’s soap opera. However, none of those sappy tv shows affected her until she saw her mother in the same condition. Rina clutches the edge of the bed, as her grim expression sho
Eka felt his head was struck by a lightning, he remembered vividly that he fell on Rina’s due to the sudden heaviness on his body. He fell unconscious and felt an airy feeling on his muscle tone when she stripped his clothes. The president would love to tease her, but he doesn’t have the energy to smile and make a joke.Additionally, the woman in front of him seems to be frantic from head to toe. The sight of her frantic expression made him feel sorrow, he wanted to calm her down but his body refused to listen to him. The next thing he knew, he felt someone hand on his body. It wasn’t Rina’s hand, because the hand who touched him was slender.He remembered the shape of the hands who currently touched his body, but the man isn’t exactly happy with the hands who touched him. The president is convinced that the hand belongs to the sly detective, his best friend, and his brother in arms. His vision was quite blurry to comprehend what’s g
