365 Day Contract

Chapter 25

Some employees were seen busy gossiping in the finance division. They were talking about Jihan who was caught up and down from the special floor of the CEO room and other company officials. Seeing Jihan passing in front of the glass wall of the financial division room, suddenly became a hot topic of conversation there. Many gossiped, even accusing Jihan of teasing Shaka, until she was married suddenly.

Regarding the news that the two had been close for a long time without anyone's knowledge, they did not believe it at all. Because it makes no sense, considering that Jihan is only an ordinary employee and from the middle class. It is far below Shaka. So a lot of bad speculation about Jihan. The woman traps and seduces Shaka by throwing her body in order to force Shaka to marry her.

"It seems plain, it turns out the temperature. One move can snapper." Cibir one of those employees. Looks full of emotion from his tone of speech and expression. Whether there is any grudge against Jihan, but she also rarely interacts with Jihan.

Some people chuckled and agreed with the words of his friend.

"Even you lose the competition. Maybe the trick is better." Someone's mouth while chuckling.

"It's not a matter of losing at the trick, but losing just an itch.!" Reply irritated.

The room became increasingly boisterous, scornfully alternating to gossip someone who had never even done anything wrong to them. Only because of an ordinary employee who was married to the CEO of the company, they lightly blasphemed Jihan without knowing the truth.

...******...

Shaka walked out of his room with Rio, his personal assistant. The two got into a special elevator and got off in the lobby.

The steps came to a halt when he saw a figure he knew was talking to a man together. The chatter of the two looks very serious, can be seen from the tension on the faces of the two.

Shaka then continued his steps, walking closer and closer towards the two people. Not to approach them, but because the path to exit the company must pass through the place.

"My life's been a lot of trouble, please don't add any more."

"I'm tired of getting chats of terror and insults from Mas's future wife. So stop calling me again.!" Jihan's speech is full of emphasis. When turning around and about to leave Rafka, Jihan hit the body of someone who was none other than Shaka. The man heard all of Jihan's words.

"Sorry Pa,,"

"He who.?" Jihan's words were cut off by Shaka. The man glanced at Rafka with a flat look.

Rafka wants to answer, but first answered by Jihan.

"Owner of andara's hospital group. Said he had an appointment to meet with the deputy director." Answer Jihan quickly.

"I'll excuse you." Jihan pamphits, but both hands hold Shaka and Rafka. The scene had made Shaka's assistant smile clumsy as well as anxious. His boss's wife's hand was held by another man. Rio was worried about a commotion there. Finally trying to pull Rafka's hand to release Jihan's hand.

"Please Sir.!" Resolute Rio because Rafka refused to let go of his hand. Now it's happening staring at each other between Rafka and Shaka.

Jihan was also confused in that position, she tried to pull both of her hands, but in vain.

"Detach.!" Shaka firmly with a hostile look.

"Sorry, I still have business with my boyfriend." Rafka said relax. Both of Jihan's eyes glared perfectly as a result of Rafka's words.

The man was too confident to call her a boyfriend.

"You're dating my wife.?" Shaka raised his eyebrows. Then glanced at Jihan.

"Darling, he's just bullshit. Our relationship has been long over." Jihan said firmly.

Rafka's hand grips slowly loosened. The man in a long-sleeved shirt suit was shocked to hear Jihan calling affection to the company's CEO.

Rafka knows quite well the figure of the man in front of him, who does not know the young CEO of the ocean company's group. Shaka figure is quite famous, always appears in books or business magazines.

"You're married.?" Nada asked Rafka sounding desperate. The gaze of his eyes that were originally full of enthusiasm for meeting Jihan, now dimmed and turned soft. With Shaka referring to Jihan as his wife, it already shows that they are indeed married. But Rafka seemed to hope that all that was not true.

Jihan manages to release her hand from Rafka's grasp as it weakens, then shifts closer to Shaka. The goal is to convince Rafka that she and Shaka are married.

"After this I beg you with Rafka, do not contact me again. I already have a life of my own, doesn't Mas Rafka do it too.?" Jihan stared expectantly, although there was actually a small incision that scratched her heart. It cannot be denied, there is still love in his heart for Rafka even though it starts to erode.

Jihan is quite self-aware, expecting Rafka is like the parable of Like pungguk missing the moon. Want something difficult to achieve because of hindered blessing.

"Forget all about us, forget me.!" Firmly Jihan then took Shaka away from there. Shaka did not protest, he kept quiet and let Jihan hold his hand. Jihan stopped the move when her position was far from Rafka.

Jihan hurriedly let go of Shaka's hand.

"Sorry sir, I don't have any intention of holding Mr. Shaka's hand. Thanks for coming at the right time." Jihan sincerely apologized and thanked Shaka.

After a polite bow, Jihan left without waiting for a response from Shaka.

The man was pecking on the spot, staring at Jihan's back which was getting further away from the view. From a distance, Shaka could see Jihan's hand movements as if she was wiping away her tears.

Shaka only smiles when he learns that Jihan is crying over her ex-boyfriend.

Seeing the look in Jihan's eyes full of disappointment and hurt when she saw her former lover, no wonder that in the end Jihan cried.

...*******...

At half-time 12, Jihan and her division co-workers were already at Shaka's fine dining restaurant of choice. Everyone was more enthusiastic when they found out that their lunch was diverted to the restaurant. And once there, they were shocked because the restaurant was booked by Shaka, specifically for the lunch.

Jihan was more shocked than them, because Shaka did not tell her that the restaurant would be booked.

"The iceberg is really excessive. It's easy to waste money.!" Gerrutu Jihan. While all her friends are busy picking up the menu, Jihan is busy fiddling with her phone to contact Shaka. The woman had already prepared the words of pearl to nag Shaka.

Unfortunately, his phone call was rejected when he just connected. Make Jihan even more annoyed at the cold man.

Not long after, an incoming message appeared on his phone screen. Who else if not Shaka the sender.

"I still have business outside, just enjoy the lunch."

Jihan thumped her lips after reading a message from Shaka. There was nothing to expect from a man as busy as Shaka. After this, Jihan must prepare an answer if her co-worker asks Shaka who can't come.
