Contradictory Love's

30 - The Bitter Reality

Daniel's managers stared at each other in silence. After presenting the harsh reality they had just faced, none of them made any comment.

Daniel was still staring at the table. There was disappointment and also anger that he was holding back.

"Could you mention the three assets that have been taken over?" Daniel asked without raising his head.

"Ehem, let me read it again." Said one of the managers. "A Giant Market in Mall S, Hotel X in Jalan Dukuh, and Restaurant G in the city center. These assets are very high selling value."

Daniel squeezed his chin, while his other hand squeezed the paper near him.

"Why can we be late in paying their rights so that these assets can float? What cause?" Daniel's tone of voice began to rise and made the meeting participants shudder to hear it.

Tommy's manager stood there and started talking. "I've tried to convince them with the funds, but they want very high interest and only give a grace period of a month. And listen, the company is already going to sell all those assets. Today the announcement has been released them."

Albert approached Daniel and then showed him something on the tablet he was holding.

"Excuse me, Sir. Please read this news link."

Albert then touched the link in question and let his boss read.

"So those assets have sold out in just under twenty-four hours after the announcement was released?"

Daniel muttered followed by the shocked look of his managers.

"What an amazing thing! We can be caught by a company that's new for corn!!"

Daniel stood up and left the meeting chair.

"Please disperse." Then he walked out of the room.

#At cafe hotel B in the afternoon.

The investigator Daniel had hired glanced at the clock in his hand. The figure he was waiting for had not yet appeared. This was their second meeting to discuss the work he had to do in Singapore. All must be neat and in accordance with the wishes of the person who rented it because the payment He received was not small.

The investigator stood up when he saw the figure he was waiting for walking towards him.

Daniel let the investigator sit down and they ordered a drink.

"I'm just waiting for your instructions, sir. To just enter, I propose to be allowed to wiretap so that everything is clear. I will also take some pictures as proof. Indeed tapping slightly violates the code of ethics, but.as long as it will only be used for personal proof and not to be brought into the realm of law, I think it is legitimate."

Daniel smiled cynically with a face that was holding back the frustration.

"Just do! Oh yes, I also want to know with anyone He will share the profits. That's all."

The man in front of Daniel nodded in understanding. Then Daniel took out a medium-sized envelope and handed it to the investigator.

"This half. Inside there is also a print out of Singapore Indonesia round-trip tickets. Hotel Q on Orchard Street. Everything has been paid. The meal was covered by the hotel. There is also more pocket money in particular for the purposes when you carry out the mission. Please use it for transportation, to cafes, pubs, or other places that you consider necessary during your duty. Remember, don't make mistakes."

The man received a thick brown envelope that Daniel handed to him. He opened the envelope and peered inside. He smiled with satisfaction and started lighting his cigarette.

"I make sure you won't be disappointed, sir" the man said, exhaling cigarette smoke from his nose and mouth.

Daniel nodded. "Alright, call me if you're having problems. I don't like failure the most!"

Daniel stood up, called the servant and handed him some money. Then it passed from that place.
