BETWEEN THE CEO AND MAFIA 2
Gossip in the Office
Sometimes we can't erase someone's name in our heart. Not because he wants to go back to her, but more to him who has filled one of the spaces in the heart and will not be replaced.
"Sorry, Miss Shuwan.... But Mr. Bayu has already banned you from entering this office. Please cooperate."
A staunch receptionist forbids Shuwan from staying who forces him to meet Bayu. Two security guards also blocked him.
Shuwan stroked his new stomach slightly. He expects empathy from those around him.
"I just want to meet the father of this child. Don't you feel sorry for me? I'm pregnant young and you're treating me like this." Shuwan put on a face. His eyes looked teary. Anyone who sees, will have pity.
"Sorry Miss Shu, we're just doing Mr. Bayu's job."
Shuwan is having trouble with Moreno. There was no one else he could ask for help other than Bayu. Moreover, his father is currently still a fugitive of the police and it turns out that all his father's wealth is managed by his personal assistant. Shuwan is unable to enjoy the facilities of his parents. Meanwhile, her pregnancy will gradually become more visible, people will start talking about her if she does not have a husband.
"What's up, this?"
"Eh, Kirana's mother."
One of the HRD staff approached because they saw noisiness at the reception.
"Miss Shu, right?" tanyakanya.
Shuwan.
"What do you need to come to the office?"
"I wanted to see Bayu, but they got in the way. Said I can't set foot here?"
"Why is that?" Kirana stared at the female receptionist and the two guards. "Miss Shu is Mr Bayu's girlfriend, why can't she meet him?"
"This is a direct order from Mr. Bayu." said the receptionist.
"Mom Kirana.... Help me to meet Mr. Bayu." Shuwan grabs Kirana's hand as he pleads.
"I've had trouble contacting Bayu for months because of that woman."
"You mean the widow who once came some to this office, huh?"
"Yes." replied Shuwan.
More and more employees coming there just want to know what is going on. They began to whisper gossiping about the scandal that befell his boss. During this time, they have often discussed Shuwan's relationship with Pak Bayu and the arrival of other women who turned out to be widows.
According to a growing issue in the office, Miss Shuwan was cheated because Mr. Bayu prefers widows over Shuwan. Hence every time Prita came, they looked at him with disdain like seeing the arrival of an actor who destroyed the relationships of others.
"I'm pregnant. And this is Bayu's son."
Those who were there were very shocked to hear the woman's confession. His boss impregnates his girlfriend but is abandoned for the sake of a widow? That's really very exciting news. The boss who they had admired and looked uninterested in women, turned out to play women and worse, the girlfriend was pregnant but did not want to be responsible.
"It's completely outrageous too Mr. Bayu." murmured Kirana in disbelief.
"Please let me meet him. Looks like Bayu's phone is being controlled by the woman. I just want to say that she's pregnant with her son."
Everyone felt sorry for Shuwan. He did come to the company several times, but Mr. Bayu did not want to accept it. The woman was pregnant and wanted to tell him.
"Uncle the security guard, just let him in." Kirana asked.
"I don't dare, Mom. Whatever the reason, Mr. Bayu doesn't want Miss Shuwan in."
"You can't imagine what it's like to have a sister who is pregnant out of wedlock, Miss Shu must be confused, let her meet Mr. Bayu to solve their problems!"
Shuwan was moved between them as there were those defending him like Kirana. There are also other employees who support it with encouragement. They also urged security not to prevent Shuwan from meeting Bayu.
Shuwan is usually allowed to meet Bayu at any time. Maybe this time it was just a misunderstanding so he couldn't get in. It may also be the influence of the new woman Pak Bayu who does not allow Shuwan to meet with Pak Bayu again. Poor thing, Shuwan is pregnant.
"We still do not dare to refute Mr. Bayu, ma'am."
Security and front office parties indeed received a direct mandate from Bayu to prevent Shuwan from entering his office. If possible, before he steps into the lobby, they should be able to kick him out, whatever the reason. If they can't do their job, Bayu threatens to fire them all.
Therefore, despite the condition of Shuwan who is pregnant, they still do not dare to refute Bayu. They also have families that must be cared for and fulfilled their needs. It may seem selfish, but finding another job at this time is very difficult. Moreover, Mr. Bayu is the type of superior who will not think twice to lay off his employees.
Kirana was very upset with those who were heartless. Other employees also think the same thing, security and receptionists have passed.
"You don't need to prevent me, I'll take responsibility if Mr. Bayu gets angry. I'll tell you, I let Miss Shuwan in!"
The employees who were there praised Kirana's actions. They salute her courage. As women, they need to support each other.
Kirana took Shuwan's hand, she removed the two security so as not to block her path. Kirana takes Shuwan upstairs.
"Good day, sir."
Bayu gasped in shock while examining the documents accompanied by Alex and Fredi. Moreover, seeing Shuwan being held by Kirana, one of his employees.
Right now he was really busy, why did Shuwan even come? He didn't even get to go home for lunch because he did a lot of work.
Seeing Shuwan coming, it was like seeing a mountain of trouble that he would face.
"Kirana... how dare you come here without me asking!"
"And.... Why are you taking that woman!?"
"I'm sorry for my stupidity, sir. But, as a fellow woman, I can't bear to let Miss Shuwan be stuck downstairs."
"Miss Shuwan is pregnant, should Mr. Bayu be responsible for exemplifying to other employees good actions after making a mistake."
Bayu clenched his hand. His teeth were stretched so angry. Surely the woman has made a no-no story at the office. Shuwan had been warned but would not listen to him. How dare he tease Bayu Bagaskara with such a cheap story.
"You may be in love with another woman who she says is the widow of three children. I can also see you can love her children sincerely."
"But, can you abandon your own child-to-be to please someone else's child?"
"I just said it because I feel empathy as a fellow woman. Sorry, I'm not professional this time."
"Excuse me."
Kirana leaves Shuwan in Bayu's room so that they can solve both of her problems. It felt satisfied to be able to express what was hopeless in his heart.
Brak!
Bayu kicked the table very strongly, surprising Alex, Fredi, and Shuwan.
"Satisfied now you? Pleased!" bayu said with a high tone of voice.
"Don't you surprise our son who's in this belly."
Shuwan flaunts his distended stomach slightly to Bayu. The look in his eyes looked innocent, but it was what Bayu hated the most. That woman is more dangerous than Karla. It seems that he can't be told in a good way. Even though his father's case should have been a valuable lesson for him. The old man had never dared to show his nose again for being a police fugitive.
"Shuwan, I've been kind enough to still keep you as GM at the Holly Hotel, yeah. Is that less?" Kayu tries to be a little patient.
"It's not about the material, but it's a pity that this child you don't admit."
Bayu wanted to laugh at her request for him to acknowledge the child. It was obvious she was not his son, why was she still expecting his confession? He was really looking for trouble with her.
"That's the woman Mr Bayu once told you to investigate?" Fredi asked in a whispering tone to Alex.
"Yes, Brother."
"It's not clear that she's dating that archery athlete?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"So, why hold Mr Bayu accountable?"
"I don't know either. Maybe they could sleep together."
"Oh.... " Fredi. "Do you think that's really Mr Bayu's son?"
"I can't be sure."
"But, I'm more confident that Miss Shu is acting. I don't think she's pregnant. I think he's just constipated so his stomach's a little bloated."
"He is an acting man."
Fredi returned to the scene with an explanation from Alex.
