Five days later...
Today is the final acquisition of Angkasa Group. I came early to the office to finish everything. The last few days Jackson always picked me up. He also bought me various needs of pregnant women. It feels so good, I can't believe Jackson could make it like this.
"Don't sleep at night. I'll blow your head off if it's still online!"
He spoiled me so much. Although we have not been able to spread intimacy, but like this I already feel very happy. And I hope Jackson will always be like this to me. Yes, regardless of his cruel nature when angry. I think I can compensate. Just sit, shut up, listen, when he's angry. Afterwards, take it to the room. He will no longer be angry with me.
"Thank you, sir."
I thank the driver who drove me. Early in the morning like this I was always escorted by Jackson's private driver. He said I can't drive my own car. Jackson didn't want me to get to anything so he told the driver to take me. He cares a lot.
Okay, Cecilia. Let's finish the job today.
I set foot into the elevator, then pressed down on my destination floor. I came in a black business uniform. Hair to make it look more elegant. I also wear pantofel shoes that are not too high. Of course without forgetting to wear my favorite makeup and perfume to be more confident.
We acted.
Arriving on the fifth floor of the company, I saw many employees talking about someone. I don't know who the hell that's talking about. But, when I say good morning to them, then I find out who they're talking about.
It turns out they were talking about me.
I greeted, but they returned my greeting with a less-wearing look. Their gazes were like condescending gazes. I don't want to worry about what they're talking about. I quickly went into the room to finish my business. I try no matter what people say. However, before long Aurel came hastily into the room. I just put my bag on my desk.
"Cecilia." He had a magazine in his hand.
"Aurel?"
"Cecilia, please explain to me. What the hell is going on?" Suddenly he asked like that. He looks very worried.
"What's going on? I don't understand either" I replied.
"Here, behold!"
Aurel immediately opened one of the pages of the magazine in front of me. And how surprised I was when I saw my picture and Jackson's picture in the magazine. Where Jackson was kissing my forehead while saying goodbye. My heart beat racing fast. The details in the photo seem to tell us about our scandal.
"God. Where's this picture from?" I asked the woman in the cream shirt who was standing in front of me, Aurel.
As much as possible I'm calm. Even though I was in shock. Where can this magazine get my and Jackson's pictures from. A few days ago someone followed us. No way not.
"I don't know, Cecilia." Aurel looks worried.
I don't know why this could happen. But one thing is for sure, I have to deal with it. Maybe this is what the war was started by Jackson.
"Cecilia, this magazine was published yesterday afternoon. This news has spread to all employees of the company. You have to clarify it." Aurel asked.
I paused for a moment, thinking.
"A lot of chatter came in and asked me this truth. I'm getting dizzy, Cecilia." Aurel.
Inevitably my thoughts went directly to Bianca, about the cause of this matter. Who else would dare to play around with me other than her. He still holds a grudge against me because of that time. But the thing is, does he have a lot of money to tell this? He also dared to offend Jackson alone. Certainly Bianca would not have done it without a strong back. Because Jackson is not a random person.
What's Zea? Or Hadden?
My heart wondered, my mind kept thinking. There are many possibilities that can happen in this. To the point of reporting Jackson's scandal with me. Surely the person behind this news was not an indiscriminate person.
"Aurel, I can't say much about this. Just ask Mr. Jackson, yeah." I scapegoated Jackson again.
"But, Cecilia. All the employees at the company are talking about you. It also dragged me into it. Can you give them an explanation to be quiet? I'm so dizzy being asked this and that." Aurel was under pressure for this news.
I was stunned, thinking of the best way to get out of the situation. Unfortunately, I haven't found the right way to explain it. Until finally I can only ask Aurel to calm down. I am still confused to make a decision.
"Aurel, calm yourself. It has nothing to do with you. I'll think of a way to ease things. Don't worry," I said, trying to calm down.
I saw Aurel nod. Maybe he was also afraid of being exposed to his side job in the presence of Angkasa Group employees, so he urged me to immediately diffuse this news.
"Yes, already. We finish the acquisition process first. Soon I will return to the Great Ocean to ask Mr. Jackson for help." I'm trying to ease his anxiety.
"Well, Cecilia." Aurel finally agreed to my suggestion.
We finally finalized the acquisition process today. Deliberately ignoring the news that is circulating to be more focused on working. Today too I had to meet Jackson in his office, to report on the results of our performance these few days. Hopefully after this there will be good news for me. I don't want to linger on people's talk. Know for yourself how people's mouths if they've spoken. They just look at it from one eye.
His afternoon...
My job today is not at all fun. When they came out of the room, people were whispering about me. However, I ignored it because I did not want to look for trouble. But in fact, there was still something that made me unable to resist being upset. Bianca called.
"Hello, Cecilia." His tone was like mocking.
"What's calling me?" ask soon.
He called me over and over again, making me annoyed with that phone call. I don't want to pick up the phone either. I'll show you that I won't run away from him. He's not someone I should be afraid of.
"Huh? What was? You don't know if the business world is in a frenzy because of your scandal with Jackson? You hypocrite!" She's fondling me.
My emotions are up. It was as if he was talking to me like that. "It's none of your business!" I said I wanted to turn off the phone.
"Hey! Wait, Cecilia. What if I add this news to your mesramu photos while with other men? It looks like it's gonna be pretty exciting." He threatened me.
I also wanted to scold him. Wanted to vent emotions because of his words. But, I realized if I was pregnant, I should not be angry because it would have a bad impact on my womb. As much as possible, I am patient with him.
"Just business. I don't have time to talk to an unemployed man" I said, turning off the phone immediately.
Phone disconnected. At that moment I could breathe a sigh of relief because I no longer heard her voice. Immediately I blacklisted his phone number so that he could no longer call me. I don't want to deal with people like him.
He threatened to spread my photos first? He wants to play with fire.
Bianca cannot be allowed to roam freely. He could've ruined my reputation for being with Jackson. I had to think of a way to eliminate it. I don't want to be disturbed by him anymore.
