Ex - Husband After Divorce

Half True News

Beyond Lydia's expectations, her mother's recovery process is quite fast. The hose on Liani's head had even been removed before a week because it was not much blood. And after that, Liani was able to move as usual and could go home in the near future.

That's certainly bad news for Lydia because it means she'll have to go back to the office this Monday. And that means their agreement is already going to work. Suddenly Lydia wished she had just come by the moon to escape.

But that's obviously not possible because Lydia just finished monthly 2 days ago. Lydia is afraid that Reino is asking for proof. Therefore this is where Lydia is now, standing in front of her office building with a long sigh.

“You can, Lyd,” his murmur stepped in.

The strange atmosphere felt as soon as Lydia walked into the office lobby. It felt like almost everyone was looking at him while whispering. Some looked questioningly, others accused.

“Lydia,” call one of the secretaries inhabiting the top floor. They were waiting together to take the elevator.

“Good morning, Mother Maya,” Lydia replied with a fluffy smile.

“You can laugh like this because you haven't seen the morning news?” ask the woman named Maya.

“Hah? What news?” lydia asked clearly confused.

Lydia's question wasn't answered verbally, but she was instead propped up by a cell phone. And Lydia's two perfectly rounded eyes saw the headline seen on the phone.

‘Food factory employees are alleged to have been forced to serve superiors who have recently become superheroes to women.’

Lydia's hand grabbed her co-worker's phone, then read the news quickly. According to Lydia's estimation, the superhero in question is her boss.

And the content of the news is more or less about a former secretary Reino harassed and forced to serve his boss, he was afraid to report because he was threatened and just dared to reveal to a close friend who later went viral on social media.

“Basic female snake. Though he was the one who always teased Mr. Reino, but now I'm forced. He thought there was no time a fifth-floor kid didn't see the time he teased our boss,” exclaimed Maya once they were in the elevator.

“Thalita yes?” lydia asked unconsciously with the crowd eavesdropping around them.

“Who else, Lyd?” merricks Maya was clearly upset.

“From the beginning he entered many of us whose duties on the fifth floor are so uncomfortable. Not only Mr. Reino who was teased, Mr. Vice also tuh,” Maya did not hesitate to talk about his direct superiors.

“Serious?” ask Lydia not to believe it.

“Yes. That's why I'm a little uncomfortable because people think all female secretaries can be used. Including you,” Maya squeaks hard.

Lydia rounded her eyes in disbelief. Maya then raises her chin, asking Lydia to read an article she has not finished reading. And as soon as it was done he instantly rose in blood.

Thalita mentions that the woman Reino helped from a perverted client is the man's current personal assistant (who is Lydia). And he said the personal assistant was the reason Thalita was fired. He even mentioned that Lydia is now the boss' favorite toy.

Lydia can't get angry at being called the boss' favorite toy because actually with that deal, she's indeed Reino's new toy. Maybe not a favorite, but still.

But for the reason Thalita was fired, Lydia did not accept. The woman was fired for peddling herself everywhere and it wasn't Lydia's fault.

“Excuse me? Is this not outrageous?” lydia's hiss is upset.

There was actually a reason why Maya deliberately said all this in a public place. He did not want his other office colleagues to brand the secretaries of the bosses who had offices on the fifth floor the same as Thalita. It was obviously detrimental because he was not like that.

They still wanted to chat, but the elevator had already reached the fifth floor. Lydia returned Maya's phone and they came out together, leaving the group of people who went up to the fifth floor, even though they had no business there.

“Mana Reino?”

Not even the two people reached their respective rooms, they were already blocked. Not just one person, but several people. From the directors to the vice CEOs crowded near the elevator.

“Anu, Sir. I also just came and have not been to the room,” replied Lydia timidly.

“As his new toy Reino time you don't know?” hardik is a financial director who is a middle-aged woman.

“Sorry, but I'm human, Mom. I am not a playable doll,” Lydia replied politely and without excessive emotion.

“Basic you cheap brash woman. About dear to the subsidiary owners of the company, you dare to be a director at all? Not afraid of being fired?” this time the marketing director was vocal. Still female, but younger.

Lydia took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. He couldn't argue too much because he was basically Reino's toy. Maya, meanwhile, had already escaped from that location.

“Basic ******. His face was plain, but his behavior was exactly like ***** the other one,” hiss one of the male directors. If not wrong, the man is from the production.

“Jaga talks if you don't want to get fired.”

Reino's baritone voice that always sounded cold, made everyone turn their head towards the open elevator. Reino stood right at the elevator door, while Hadi followed behind him.

“Reino,” Pak Vice CEO forward approaching.

“When the market opens, our shares will definitely plummet. You must provide clarification about the unclear news,” said Mr. Vice calm down. It was just the old man who was calm.

“That's obviously a baseless accusation, Mr. Fendi. The proof is not there,” Reino is very calm and flat as usual.

“But the proof is Reino. Did you forget you had a surveillance camera in your room?” ask Mr. Fendi still calm.

“What does that mean with a surveillance camera? No cameras in my room,” furious Reino angry. And what he said was a fact. There should be no cameras there.

“Then where can they get the video?” asked Mr. Fendi looking confused. “Police has contacted me because you cannot be contacted.”

“What?”

Not only was Reino surprised to hear that, but almost everyone there was surprised. Including Lydia whose face had already turned deathly pale.

Lydia turned her head to look at Reino who was also looking at her. If there is a video, it means their real relationship could be exposed. And that means there will be a kissing scene later, right?

Oh, goddamn. Why did it even become like this? What should Lydia tell her mother later. So what does he have to say to everyone in the office? Fucking Thalita.
