Celina arrived home right at dinnertime. He went straight to the dining room which turned out to have Alex the daddy.
"Hi, dad!" Celina greets Alex with a kiss on the cheek. But to Lola he just smiled thinly and replied similarly.
"Hi sweety, where's it going?"
Celina sits opposite Lola, who is now Alex's wife.
"Spend daddy's money." Celina rolled her eyes.
"Aahaha." Alex laughed funny. "It's good that way."
"Servant, prepare the food!" tell Alex to the waiter standing at the end of the room. The waiter immediately went to the kitchen to obey his master's orders.
"Heard you were close to Maso's son?" alex started the conversation again.
"Dad, are you tailing me again?"
Alex just smiled looking at his spoiled looking daughter.
"Tck, we just met."
"Newly familiar but have been staying at his place."
"Dad!"
"Why? Daddy doesn't mind you dating him."
"Good, dad! I can't possibly date her, she deserves to be my sister."
"really?"
"Yeah,"
"Okay, we'll see" Alex said with a mocking face.
"Dad!!" Celina sulks because Alex keeps teasing her, she cuts her flesh out loud. Alex chuckled at the behavior of his daughter as well as Lola who had not participated in the father-son chat.
Celina has been declared cured by doctors there, but doctors say to keep Celina as far as possible from the things that will make Celina again obsessed. And Alex felt that all this time that had always been Celina's obsession was Leo. So she sent people to watch over Celina so she could know when she should act if Celina ever got out of control. And of course now he was choosing someone he could really trust. He didn't want Dion's events to happen again.

In a few weeks Celina and Leo had their day. Both focus on their own work. Leo in Astra Group and Celina in Giant Family. The difference is, Celina lived the day cheerfully, she did not take seriously her separation with Leo. He thought, if Leo had no taste with him, he would have started again from the beginning. While Leo, he turns into a cold vampire. He really kept everything to himself.
If it's Kris, he's busy learning everything about Maso Machine. Later he will be the successor to his father, so he must know everything. Every now and then she would contact Celina to just ask the news and slightly treat her longing. His feelings were no joke. She really likes Celina.
This afternoon, Celina is holding Astra Group's office for a meeting. As we know, the new project between Astra and Giant is now held by Celina.
Celina took a deep breath while in the elevator. He had to be heartfelt, as this was the first time he would meet Leo again after a month more since that day. He didn't know if his heart would be as strong as he thought.
Once out of the elevator, Celina headed straight for the meeting room they used to use. Walk confidently as usual. The sunglasses perched on his nose make him even more stunning.
Celina opened the door of the meeting room, it seemed Devan and Leo were already sitting there.
"Am I late?" celina asked as she opened her glasses.
Devan and Leo looked at each other.
"No, comein!" devan exclaimed, while Leo shifted his gaze. Celina sat in front of Leo. Before sitting down he nodded politely while smiling at Leo. The usual greeting among business people.
Devan glanced at his two best friends who looked like strangers now. He sighed, so curious but did not want to interfere so much with their affairs.
"We're just starting a meeting" Celina said.
"But Cel, there's one more person who wants to join our project." Devan looks at his watch, "Maybe be quiet."
"Who?"
Tok tock..
Not yet Devan answered the sound the door had shifted their focus.
"That's the guy coming. Coming in!"
The door opened, displaying the figure of a handsome man who had been known by Celina and Leo.
"Kris?" celina Mumbles.
"Good day everyone! Sorry I'm late." Kris gave her friendly smile.
"We're just about to start, sit down!" Devan invited Kris to sit down, and Kris sat down next to Celina.
"Maybe you know each other, but let me introduce you again officially. This is Christian Santoso, son of Mr. Mario Santoso. From today he will be part of our project."
"Yes, I heard that this project requires a lot of mechanical engineering so I volunteered to join this project and three days ago I already signed the contract."
Celina nodded hearing that.
"I think I've asked you to meet, but you said you're busy." Devan smiled as he played his eyebrows.
"That day you didn't say that.."
"That's it, what's important now you know!" Devan cut off Celina's sulking speech.
Celina poked her lips a sign she was still sulking. Leo involuntarily smiled faintly looking at Celina's behavior. And without realizing it, Kris caught the smile that made Kris follow her lips. She doesn't like anyone else watching Celina, including Leo. He doesn't know what their relationship is like now.
"Mr Christian, please present what you have for our project!" Devan turned to Kris.
"Well, but before that can Mr. Devan just have a casual conversation with me and call me by the name of Kris?"
Devan frowned for a moment but then agreed.
"Okay, Kris, you start the presentation!"
"good. But I'm sorry if there's still a lot of flaws because this is my first time."
Kris stood up to connect his laptop to the available projector. Then he began to present what he had prepared.
Throughout Kris' presentation, everyone took it seriously. They were amazed by Kris's skill in promoting what he had. He was so shrewd that no one would have thought that this was his first time presenting.
Leo, who actually does not like the man, amazed by his ability. He is increasingly convinced that Celina is indeed more worthy of being paired with Kris who is smart and also the heir to a large company. Although in Leo's job is a reliable person but he is still an assistant director.
***
The meeting is over, Devan decides to hold another meeting next month.
"I first! Leo, please get everything done!"
"Where are you going?" Celina was astonished to see Devan in such a hurry.
"This afternoon Mia has an appointment with the obstetrician."
"Is he still limp?"
"No, he's good now. We just do regular checkups every month."
"Good thing, I'm glad to hear it."
Devan nodded, then left Celina with Kris and Leo.
Celina took her bag and prepared to leave. But, before that he stops near Leo, leaving Leo glued and Kris burning with jealous flames.
"How are you?" Celina asked in a casual tone. There was no spoiled voice he used to use on Leo and Alex. Secretly Kris sighed in relief, Celina asked the news which meant that they had not met each other.
Leo was silent for a moment while looking down, then looked into Celina's eyes.
"I'm good, you?" Leo did not change his face at all.
"Can't be better."
"Good." Leo returned to clear Devan's documents.
"I go first" Celina told Leo who was replied with a nod.
Kris immediately followed Celina, not forgetting that she was also pleased with Leo with a smile and nod.
Leo turned around to follow them. He saw Kris aligning his steps with Celina and they stopped in front of the elevator.
"You drive yourself?" ask Kris to Celina.
Somehow Leo was curious about their conversation, so he stayed in a corner invisible to them.
"Yes." replied Celina.
"I didn't bring a car. Can I come with you?"
"No. You just take a cab."
"Come on, I'm lazy to wait for a taxi by the side of the road." Kris still wants to hitchhike.
"Now there are many online taxis."
"I don't know how to." Kris pressed her lips to make a funny face.
Celina faces Kris with annoyance, but she accidentally sees Leo's shoes behind the wall. She wanted to scold Kris, but then an idea popped into her head.
"Alright, even though I know that's just your excuse so you can come home with me. I'll let you."
"You're really adorable Celina!" Kris pinched both cheeks of Celina so pleased. And Celina smiled happily as she managed to heat up Leo, she could see from Leo's clenched hands while walking away in the opposite direction to them.
"Come on!" Kris resuscitates Celina, she pulls Celina into the elevator.
