After My Husband Cheated, I Became Rich

49. Secretary Halu

After their meeting with Andromega's leadership, Bagas and Alea returned to the company. During the trip they were silent, there was no more discussion of the exchange of secretaries after Bagas replied with a somersault over the idea Alea had uttered.

Alea also did not want to prolong this matter, there were many ways to keep Bagas away from women like Tika. Her husband did not show any interest. So, why should Alea doubt Bagas' love?

Arriving at Bagas's company, he escorted Alea back to his wife's room.

"Hour commute to work just wait here, Brother who will pick you up." said Bagas who was answered with a nod of agreement by Alea.

Bagas would not allow Alea to often face Tika, because it was Bagas who would approach Alea later when they came home from work.

His closeness with Tika in the past often makes Tika disrespect him as a superior, moreover Tika feels no limit to him, with all her heart to do what she wants to do. Unfortunately Bagas could not scold him, because Tika was one of Sundari's favorite grandchildren. The girl since childhood is very good at seizing his heart, even Lisa the sister often complained to see their oma more dear to Tika than him.

Only Papa Haikal is a person that Tika cannot fight other than Sundari's oma, which is why Haikal will ask Tika to return to be his secretary. Haikal knew enough about Tika who liked Bagas a long time ago, Haikal also knew his son could not repay Tika's love because Bagas had fallen in love with Alea.

"Did Tika do something to you?" leoni asked as soon as he saw Bagas missing behind the door.

"Why indeed? Brother Bagas also asked me like that." asked and explained Alea.

"Didn't tell me anything about you?" Not answering Leoni asked back. Alea shook her head answering Leoni's question.

"What's wrong?" asked Alea curiously.

Leoni who since childhood in the adoption of the Buana family certainly knows a lot about what happens in the family. He also told Alea about the quarrel between Tika and Paula that humiliated the Buana family.

"Oh so the story." Alea said casually, she was not surprised by Leoni's story. Seeing the attitude of Tika who likes to provoke, it is not wrong if Paula is provoked by her emotions. But that would not apply to Alea who had the composure in the face of the enemy.

"It's only right for your brother to check on me thoroughly earlier." Alea said.

"He loves you and loves you, Leah. That's why you don't want to get hurt by a woman like Tika." said Leoni.

Alea smiled, there was nothing she needed to doubt about the sincerity of Bagas' love for her. Now Alea knew why Bagas did not allow Tika to be his secretary, of course because Bagas did not want Alea to fight with Tika as happened to Paula. Bagas looked after her without needing Alea to know.

"Leoni, may I ask you something?" ask Alea.

David was still with Bagas and Alvin discussed the work Alea should have attended, but Alea asked his assistant to replace him. There was another job he had to finish and he could not represent David or Leoni. David's absence makes Alea a little free to talk personal matters with Leoni, his old friend.

Leoni who was back struggling with her computer looked at Alea. "What's that about?" tanyakanya.

"About Riki's brother." Alea said without further ado.

"About he's gonna propose to someone?" leoni asked again guessing what Alea would ask who immediately agreed with Leoni's question.

"I don't know either." replied Leoni.

"Sister asked for my opinion, what should he do to the woman who made him fall in love" Leoni said.

"I told Riki, if you're sure, why don't you apply" Leoni said.

"So it's not you" Alea said.

"Me and you in Riki's eyes are the same, Lea. We are his sister. The difference is that you have a blood relationship with him, while I have a relationship with him. I'm just like you are both mahromnya, can not marry him." explains Leoni.

Alea never knew the matter, though, Riki was kidnapped as an infant by his uncle and found by his father when Riki eight years old who finally adopted his father only to cover up the truth from his uncle if Riki was his father's biological son.

"So who do you think?" aela asked again which Leoni answered by shrugging her shoulders.

As he promised, Bagas picked Alea up in his room on his way home. The two stepped out of the room followed by Leoni, David and also Alvin behind him.

They meet with Tika who just greets Bagas and ignores Alea while entering the elevator. Ignoring Tika's attitude towards her, Alea wrapped her hands around Bagas' arm. Out of the elevator Alea was about to release her arms but in the hold Bagas made Tika throw her face to see the intimacy of the two who looked at each other mesrah.

"What's the matter, baby?" tanya Bagas saw Alea sighing harshly as soon as they were in the car.

"It's okay, let's go home Bee" Alea replied. Why would she question Tika's attitude, if clearly her husband did not pay attention to the woman.

"Bagas was always nice to me, he was affectionate and in love with me." The words that Tika had said in the toilet according to Alea were only from her husband's secretary. So, why did Alea have a problem with it.

Bagas clasped his wife's hand tightly, lifted her up and then kissed her. He knew Alea disliked Tika's attention-seeking attitude and ignored Alea's existence. But Bagas also wanted Alea to know, if he always ignored Tika. Not just this time, but since she fell in love with Alea for the first time.

"Why are we headed for Global Primary, Bee?" aela asked as soon as she realized Mr. Toni had driven their vehicle instead of onto the road to their residence.

"There's someone who wants to see you" Bagas said as he gave Alea's phone left in the car and brought Alvin into his room.

"Mas Radit?" said Alea.

flashbacks

There was an incoming message on Alea's cell phone that Alvin put on Bagas' desk. Seeing the name of the sender, Bagas opened and immediately read the message without any intention to reply. At that time Bagas, Alvin and David were discussing their company cooperation with Andromega, so Bagas only intended to read it.

Since the incident in Paris, where Bagas admitted to opening Alea's phone without his wife's permission, Alea and Bagas finally equated their mobile passwords. The two make a deal for no secrets between them and allow the couple to unlock their phones without permission.

One message came in again after a while from the same person. After reading Bagas replied to the message.

In Global Pratama, Radit was watching Ratna. He was in a dilemma, choosing between two who had the same standing for him to choose. After Radit invites Ratna to marry, Paula contacts him and brings up their past love. Now Radit does not know which one to choose, because both of them have children from him.

"Alea." that name came to Radit's mind. The only person he could talk to and tell about the problem he was facing.

Radit: [Lea can we meet?] Radit sent a message to Alea.

Radit waited for the message to be read but not responded by Alea.

Radit: [I want to return the house keys and want to share a little story.] Radit again sent Alea a message about his intentions and goals meeting Alea.

Alea: [Good afternoon after work at cafe Brown.] The bagas that replied to that message without Radit knowing.
