"Suggestions to get back on good terms with Madam."
Hearing those words, Mr. J was silent for a moment. Thinking it never hurts to take advice from Arvin. In the end, Mr. J nodded his head.
"You're in love with your wife! Aren't we?" Arvin began to change his grammar, becoming more relaxed. Now he wants to give advice as a friend.
Mr. J was surprised to hear Arvin's guess on target, then looked at Arvin who kept paying attention to him, "Where do you know?"
"Of course it's been clear from your attitude lately. People who are in love look more pink!" chirps Arvin who really has set aside the limits of subordinates and superiors.
"Pink in color? Don't make it up!"
Isn't it like that? But why didn't Renata realize it?
Even though Mr. J has tried so hard to show his love for his wife. Hope if Renata understands without having to say the word 'I love you.'
Mr. J does not know if the word love is essential to the satisfaction of a relationship. And also so that the feeling of love itself is conveyed well.
Arvin piled his palms on the side of the table, then looked at Mr. J carefully.
"Honest to your wife. Tell me if you love him. Don't torture yourself by hiding your feelings."
Mr. J smiled cynically, hearing Arvin's words, "You don't know anything, Arvin. He and I have been bound by a covenant, which does not allow us to carry a feeling in marriage."
"A pact?" paro Arvin, it was unexpected that between Mr. J and Renata there was a treaty.
Mr. J took a slow breath, then his body leaned against the chair, rubbing it rough on his face, "He was the first to ask me to write a covenant. Ye know? The treaty was a marriage of symbiotic mutualism."
Both of Arvin's eyes grazed wide, truly a ridiculous agreement. He even just found out if there is a symbiotic marriage mutualism. Are they flowers and butterflies? Crocodiles and plover birds? Or humans and bacteria E. Li co?
How funny!
"Hey, it's just an absurd agreement! With the covenant, just as you play with a sacred bond of marriage!" Arvin became furious himself, he even yelled at the CEO.
"Ck, do you know what? You're not even married yet, your boyfriend is always changing," sardonic Mr. J told Arvin.
"At least I'm more experienced in women's affairs, than you are new to love! In the absence of experience, you become a difficulty yourself!"
Hearing the mocking remark shown to him, Mr. J glanced at Arvin in annoyance.
"You want to get fired, yeah! Or want to be sent to country H?"
Country H, same as Africa. Mr. J wants to alienate Arvin to take care of the company branch there.
Arvin immediately silenced his making, of course, he did not want to if he had to be exiled in the arid country.
"Y-yes, sorry, sir."
Mr. J smiled cynically, triumphantly. No one can mock him. Except Renata. He might threaten Renata as if threatening Arvin, even though his wife likes to tease him.
"Hmm," Arvin cleared his throat to dispel the fear of being sent to country H, he would be careful in speaking this time.
"Forgot that deal, sir. If you still want to stay with the Madam," Arvin said back on the topic.
Mr. J frowned, and seconds later he clucked, "Ck!" smile cynically, then shake his head.
Forgetting agreements? It was not as easy as turning the palm. What if their relationship deteriorated after that? The worst thing, Renata will end up leaving him. Because it was the covenant that undergirded their marriage.
"Be honest before you're late, try telling her if you love her. The agreement between you is just a piece of paper, it's very easy to tear and burn."
Mr. J was silent in his raging thoughts. Did he really have to forget about the deal? He really wanted the deal to go away.
"I'm just giving advice" Arvin said, "A woman needs reassurance. Aren't you afraid, if your wife ends up falling in love with another man, for not feeling loved by her husband?"
"I don't want her to fall in love with another man" Mr. J's jaw hardened instantly. Seeing Renata talking to Aslan alone was able to make him an atrocity.

Elsewhere, when the time has rolled until the afternoon. At the time of painting the sky in the afternoon before dusk.
Renata looked at the contents of the refrigerator. There are plenty of food in the refrigerator. There are vegetables such as tomatoes, carrots, peppers, onions, and leeks.
At the sight of the chicken and beef stockpile, suddenly his stomach churned with nausea. It felt like he was eager to spit out something that made him nauseous.
"Huueek," Renata shut her mouth, holding back from vomiting because of the nausea.
Not long after, Renata got up to run to the sink and vomited there.
"Mistress?" The waiter who was about to help the Great Mistress cook dinner came straight over, "Mistress, why?"
Renata did not answer the servant's question. He stayed down, unable to get any words out of his lips.
"Has the chicken and beef stockpile entered the expired period? Why does it smell so bad?" ask Renata after turning on the sink faucet.
The waiter was caught up to check the refrigerator.
"No, Mistress. The meat is still fresh" said the waiter, breathing a sigh of relief. Can get angry with him, if doing sloppiness by letting the meat expired in the refrigerator.
Renata closed the sink faucet, "Of course, it's okay."
The waiter turned his attention back to the Madam who looked pale, "Madam better take a rest."
"But what about dinner?"
"Let me continue cooking. Madam mustn't be too tired, because it will be bad for the baby Mistress."
"E-uh?" Renata gasped in surprise at the servant's words.
A baby? But she wasn't really pregnant.
Then Renata stroked his queen's belly, "Is it possible?" his murmur was tucked away in a hope.
Because she also felt weak and dizzy, Renata did not continue her cooking show. He went back to his room to rest.
Renata grabbed her phone. Is it okay to call her husband?
[*/* 17.31 ]Jefra Tjong: Today I do not cook. I suddenly got nauseous and dizzy. It feels so limp.
Patiently, Renata awaits an answer from Mr. J. However, ten minutes passed he did not get an answer.
Renata frowned because he did not get an answer. Is Mr J still angry? Was her husband not worried about her?
"I was a fool for wishing that he was worried about me."
However, not Renata name if giving up attracts the attention of her husband's feet.
Renata started typing, sending a message back to her husband.
Brakes
The sound of the door opening violently, stopping the movement of Renata's finger on the phone screen.
Renata rounded his eyes when he saw Jefra Tjong, coming with a breath of breath and a face that looked panicked.
"You... have you come home?"
