Chapter 41

Realizing that their guests were busy conversing with the staff, Ashton excused himself and got up from his seat. He headed to the cashier and ordered several dishes to go.Yes, Ashton had made a decision. He planned to leave early and fulfill his promise to Alice."Alice, please answer," Ashton muttered as he tried calling her back. He knew why she wasn’t picking up. She was probably sulking because he had ignored her earlier. Ashton swore he didn’t do it on purpose."Hello."Ashton felt relieved when his fourth call finally got a response. He had almost given up hope because Alice hadn't answered any of his previous calls."Hi, Alice. I ---""Did you invite me to lunch just to mess with me? You're unbelievable!" Alice interrupted immediately. On the other end, she was venting her frustration. Anyone would be angry after being kept waiting for so long, especially when they were extremely hungry. "Do you think I'm joking or lying when I say I'm really hungry and want to have lunch soo

"Alice, don't hang up yet. I'm not finished—" This was the last thing Ashton said before Alice ended their phone conversation. He hadn’t even finished speaking before Alice cut him off.Ashton was only trying to help. He had called Alice to let her know about Dimas, who he saw enjoying time with another woman.It really wasn’t Ashton’s business who Dimas spent time with, but it was different because Ashton knew Dimas planned to confess his feelings to Alice soon. Somehow, Ashton couldn’t accept this. He didn’t agree with Alice getting close to, let alone accepting, someone who was clearly involved with another woman. Besides, Alice was his wife. How could she consider dating another man?Since he didn’t get a good response from Alice, Ashton decided to go to her office. Carrying the food he had bought, he went to find her."Alice isn’t here, sir," said one of the staff as she saw Ashton standing and knocking on the door to Alice's office."Oh, really?""Yes, sir," replied Adinda, the

"Alice... where are you going?" Ashton asked when he saw his wife descending the stairs and heading straight to the living room. Instead of having breakfast together as usual, Alice seemed to be in a hurry this morning. He wondered what she was up to."I'm going to the project site in PIK.""To the project site on Saturday? It's a holiday today."Alice nodded. While arranging the contents of the bag she was going to carry, she responded to Ashton's question. It was no wonder Ashton was wondering. Because on Saturdays and Sundays, almost all Quandra employees were off duty."Yes, today is indeed a holiday. But, in case you forgot, who gave the deadline to the civil and field workers that everything should be finished by Monday?""Well, it was me." Ashton didn't deny it. He was the one who gave the task. However, he couldn't let Alice go today. "But, you can't go. There's an event at Mama's house this morning. It wouldn't be right for me to go alone."Alice also knew that there was an e

Chapter 44

Alice never thought that just because of the office birthday party, she would end up being this busy. After all, she's just an intern. Somehow, Rumi's crazy idea made her one of the organizing committee members.As a result, for the past few days, almost all of her time has been spent preparing for the event. Luckily, the workload these days hasn't been too heavy, so she could focus. Plus, Rumi formed a team with quite a few members, so they could handle all the event preparations quickly."Alice, have you checked and discussed the event schedule for the week with Mr. Rumi?" asked Dita, who is the head of the event organizing committee.Currently, they were all sitting in one corner of the room, which the company had designated for small meetings or casual gatherings. All the committee members seemed focused on their respective tasks, including Alice."Yeah, Ms. Dita. It's been approved and signed off," Alice replied."Okay," nodded Dita. "So, tomorrow we'll start with some competitio

"Is Mr. Ashton going crazy or what?""Why crazy?""Well, yeah, crazy. Yesterday he sent lunch from that super expensive restaurant with a ton of food. And now? He's sending all sorts of breakfast foods for all of us. Is this just some kind of reward? Seems kinda weird.""Weird how? I don't get it.""Oh, come on, don't be dense. Just think about it. He says it's a reward, but is it really necessary multiple times? Mr. Ashton never used to do this before. Could it be that he's deliberately sending food for Alice?""Meaning? Ohhh, I see. Mr. Ashton is deliberately sending food to get Alice's attention?""Yeah! That's what I mean. Like what Mr. Dimas does. But Mr. Dimas is upfront about it. Whereas Mr. Ashton is being sneaky. Sending lots of food deliberately, including for us, so it's not too obvious that he's actually got something going on with Alice.""True! Suspicious, Mr. Ashton is smitten with Alice.""If he really is, it'll be interesting.""Why interesting?""Well, because Alice

Chapter 46

Alice looked anxiously hopeful. From earlier, even since at home, before she really left for work, she already looked uneasy.Although she was known for being an extroverted person who was easy to get along with and blend in with anyone, Alice felt that this time her aura was different.For some reason, she still felt nervous when she realized that today she had to participate in a competition and be watched by almost all the employees of Quandra. Especially since the higher-ups were also present. Considering today was the first day that marked the beginning of a series of events for the next seven days.If she could have refused, Alice would have preferred to just be a spectator. Cheering, encouraging, or if necessary, being a supporter in the front row. But, because of Rumi's antics, she had no choice but to struggle to participate in all the activities that would take place. So tiring!"Why are you so tense? It’s like you’re about to go to war."Dimas, who had been standing at the

Meanwhile, on the field, Dimas was already lined up with the other competitors. Holding the relay baton, he looked ready. Listening carefully and waiting for the whistle to start the event."All participants, get ready!!!"The announcer started giving instructions. Looking at all the participants, and then, on the count of three, blew the whistle to start the race.Dimas in his position started running. The man in a white T-shirt seemed to excel and was able to get ahead of the other six participants.Usually, a relay race team consists of four athletes, but this time it was made different. Each team had only two people. Moreover, the winners of the first, second, and third places had to compete again to determine who would take the top spot.When he was about to reach the meeting point, Alice focused and got ready. As Dimas approached, Alice immediately reached out her hand, grabbed the baton from Dimas, and then ran as fast as she could.Luckily, before the race started, Alice had d

"If your ankle still hurts, you should take a break. I'll give you a few days off to rest."In the dining room, right in front of the dining table, Ashton stared at Alice as she enjoyed her breakfast. The girl seemed relaxed as usual, as if nothing had happened.But Ashton clearly remembered how much pain Alice was in yesterday after she fell. Honestly, he was so worried that he immediately took Alice to the hospital. Fortunately, nothing serious happened to his wife."I'm feeling better," Alice said after finishing the food in her mouth. Taking a sip of warm milk, she looked back at Ashton. "My ankle doesn't hurt like it did yesterday. After taking the painkillers, it feels much better.""Are you sure?"Alice nodded repeatedly. If she thought about it, her ankle wasn't as sore as yesterday."Yes. Besides, how could I just take a break? Because of what happened yesterday, the next competition had to be postponed. That's why I have to work today.""If it still hurts, why push yourself,

"Alice. How did you get to work earlier? When I went to pick you up at home, Tina said you had already left for work?"Alice, who was preparing for a cooking competition at the time, immediately turned around. She gave Rumi a puzzled and bewildered look in response to his question.Alice hadn’t forgotten. It was impossible to forget that earlier that morning, while she was waiting for Rumi, Ashton had clearly said that his sister couldn’t pick her up as usual because she had to take Umi Hana somewhere.That’s why, with Ashton’s persuasion, Alice agreed to ride with him to the office. Even though, in the end, she had to be dropped off wherever Ashton pleased, not at the destination."You came to my house? To pick me up? Didn’t you have to take Mom somewhere this morning?" whispered Alice, looking around nervously, afraid someone might overhear their secret conversation."Take Mom? Who said that?"Now Rumi was the one looking confused. He seriously didn’t understand what Alice was talki

Chapter 50

Alice should be grateful. Luckily, after Ashton replaced Dimas to accompany her in the cooking competition, it eventually yielded the desired result.Whether it was because their food was genuinely delicious, or because Ashton, the owner of the company, was present, their team emerged as the winner.However, deep down in her heart, Alice admitted that the Rica-Rica dish her husband made yesterday was indeed delicious. Yes, even though it was very spicy and she couldn't finish it.After the competition, something funny happened. Remembering Dimas who suddenly disappeared, Alice asked Ashton to let him out, and it turned out Ashton had locked him in the restroom of his office."If anything happens to Mr. Dimas, you'll be responsible, Mr. Ashton," Alice warned. She didn't want her husband to get into trouble, nor did she want Dimas to experience anything bad."Relax. You don't need to worry; Dimas will be fine. The executive restroom is nice. It’s even designed with a bed," Ashton replie
