"You can't be like this, Ga. From the beginning we agreed that Rosa would come with me. And now I want to take Rosa home with me." Obviously Areta is inflamed. He did not accept the sudden change of Angga's mind. Angga easily violated what they had agreed to before.
"But now I've changed my mind. Rosa will stay here with me."
"No. Rosa will come with me no matter what. You can't change your mind like this. I've even obeyed your will."
"Areta, can you guarantee that Rosa will be happy to come with you. While your new husband's family doesn't want Rosa's presence."
Areta frowned furiously. "What do you mean?"
"Areta, don't be naive. Mr. Henry's family doesn't know who you really are. They think you are a single woman. Do you think that suddenly bringing Rosa to live with them was the right decision? I'm pretty sure Areta, they won't accept Rosa's presence. So it would be nice if Rosa stayed here with me and Mom. After all, you will be preoccupied with your new status. Where do you have time to take care of Rosa. While here is me and mom who will take care of it 24 hours."
Areta was truly at a loss for words with the selfishness of Angga. He did not accept, really did not accept Angga to play him like this.
"Can't be like this, Angga. It's not that we've talked about this before, and we've agreed that Rosa's custody is with me. And the court has decided that. Then why are you even like this? I don't accept. Anyway Rosa's coming with me right now."
"Aretic. I did this at Mr. Henry's request."
Areta was silent. Staring in disbelief with questioning eyes. How could Henry do this?
"Your new husband does not want the presence of Rosa in the midst of his family. So what did Rosa bring you to live with them? Meningan Rosa and Angga are here. After all, Angga will get married. I'm sure Mega will be a good mother to Rosa." Suddenly Wirda came and even made things worse.
"Where can that be, Mom? This was already the initial agreement between me and Angga. I'm willing to divorce from Angga as long as Rosa comes with me" Areta said in self-defense. He did not accept being lied to by his ex-husband and in-laws.
"If you want to protest, just protest with your new husband. Even if you want your new husband, it will stop Rosa's treatment. Do you also want Rosa's condition to worsen? It's still a good thing your husband wants to finance Rosa's treatment. So what's wrong with you following her request."
Angry, of course. Areta was disappointed even hurt. I don't know what Henry wants from him. Didn't the man marry her just because her parents were urging her to get married? Stupid with that guy's feelings. If it was true that the man loved her, he should have accepted Rosa.
"I want to see Mr. Henry" Areta told receptionists as she walked into Dreams Food's office, driven by anger.
"Sorry, have you made any previous appointments with Mr. Henry?" The receptionist did not know Areta. Because none of the Dreams Food employees know their employer's marriage. Except Fabian.
"Yet. But he knows me. Please just tell him, I'm Areta, want to meet him."
"Sir Henry's having an important meeting. You should make an appointment first if you really want to meet with him. After making an appointment, you can come back again tomorrow."
"But I have to meet Mr. Henry now. I have important business with him. Please, it's urgent. I can't wait until tomorrow. Especially waiting for him at home. I don't have time. My business with him must be finished now." Areta urged, not wanting to delay the time to bring Rosa home with her.
"Why are you forcing, are you Mr Henry?"
"I'm i..." Areta's words stopped at the end of her tongue. There is a sense of dislike when he mentions the word 'wife'. Her heart could not accept Henry as her husband.
"alright. Sorry, it's been interrupting your time. Excuse me." Not wanting to continue arguing with the receptionist, Areta finally chose to go home. Rather than later being expelled by the security guards, he would rather resign. Maybe it should be Rosa's problem she talked about later at home after Henry came home from work.
However, just a few steps of his feet were galloping, suddenly a voice called out his name.
"Areta."
Areta stopped her steps, then twisted her body immediately. Because that voice was familiar in his ears. The voice of someone who made his anger almost exploded.
Henrys.
His meeting with Kenjiro Hiroshi to discuss plans to expand marketing of Dreams Food products in Japan has ended. He was about to drive Kenjiro to the front door of the building when his net caught Areta talking to the receptionist. Then leave after not getting permission to meet him.
"Thank you Mr. Hiroshi. We will continue the discussion later. In the near future, I will visit Japan to directly monitor production there, to ensure production quality," Henry concluded his chat with Kenjiro as he extended his hand.
"Alright Mr's. Adishvara. I will await your arrival. We wish our cooperation smooth and successful for a long time. If so, I'll excuse you. Thank you for the time," Kenjiro replied shaking Henry's hand while commenting on a friendly smile.
"See you next time." The pale-skinned and narrow-eyed man then left with Fabian escorted to the front door of the lobby, until the car that Kenjiro boarded drove away carrying the man to leave the Dreams Food building.
...
"Sorry, Mr. Henry. This woman insisted on meeting Mr. Henry without making an appointment first" said the receptionist.
"Who dare forbid a wife who wants to meet her husband?"
The receptionist woman was shocked, staring in disbelief at Areta. Which according to his vision does not match Henry.
"Look, from today on, there shouldn't be a single person who forbids Areta from meeting me. If that happens, get ready to leave this company." Henry said, pressing his tone. Makes the receptionist's guts shrivel. No longer dare to reply to the words of his boss if he does not want his job to be a bet.
Pulling Areta's wrist, Henry then takes the woman to a special elevator that will take her to the floor where the room is located.
"Woman is his wife? When did Henry get married? Isn't Mr Henry single? How did he suddenly get married? Is that woman wearing a pellet? How could Henry like a woman like that?" the receptionist muttered in envy and disbelief. Because, if you pay attention, even from the aura alone Areta is not classy. So he finds it impossible for Henry to fall in love with Areta.
...
"Why don't you tell me you're my wife" Henry said as soon as he arrived in his room.
Areta gulped, reluctant to discuss the matter.
"I came here to talk about Rosa's problem" he said.
"Please sit down first."
Areta flinching. He nailed his feet in front of Henry's desk.
"I won't be long."
Henry already knew what Areta was going to talk to him about. Because Angga had told him over the phone a while ago.
"alright. Please, what do you want to talk about."
"I want Rosa to stay with me. If you and your family can't accept Rosa's presence, I'd rather stay in the apartment alone with Rosa."
Henry got up from his seat. Then get to Areta. Closer to her, close to her so that she can embrace Areta's waist. Which makes Areta frozen, uncomfortable get such treatment.
"All right, if that's what you want. Rosa will live with us, in my house, not in an apartment. But..." Henry paused his sentence for a moment. The sound of Areta's chin, pressing her slowly until Areta looked up. Automatic gazes also collide with each other.
"There's a condition for that" he continued staring fixedly at Areta's eyes.
"What's the condition."
"Do your duty as a wife by serving your husband wholeheartedly. Including..." Slowly Henry eroded the distance, bringing his face closer to Areta's.
Make Areta have to hold her breath. His heart rate began to fear. Because there is an unusual radiance from the look of Henry's eyes that are visible at this time. Henry's gaze began to say lash out, there was a kind of turmoil that he tried to dim.
"Tell me what the conditions are" said Areta Parau, half whispering. Even from the tone of his voice, there was fear in him at this moment.
"It's easy Areta, baby. Just serve me and give me my rights as a husband."
