Killing Me Softly's

34

"Do you want the shrimp again?" tanya Lyra serves food at the dinner table.

"Let's just take it myself, brother" replied Micah.

This morning they had breakfast together. In a quiet house and there were 3 people at the dinner table. Lyra woke up early to get everything ready. Also wash clothes that have been piled up.

"Well, I'll drop you some food for security first.."

"Hurry up, you haven't eaten either" Moeis said.

"Yes.."

Lyra was directly ahead to deliver 2 servings of food, fruit and drinks.

"What are your plans today?" ask Micah moeis.

"Hmmm, don't know. I'm also afraid of this house alone, because you're going to the office. Maybe just go to the mall all day." he said lightly.

Moeis shook her head. Already studied in the Netherlands to Masters. But I have never tried any work. Very inversely related to other family members. Where they prioritize education and of course jump directly into the world of work.

"How many years are you graduating?"

"Next year. Why do you remind me again? I've been so stressed imagining that day happening." he said frustratedly.

"Which company are you looking for?"

Micah smiled strangely. Why think about which company. He doesn't want to work anyway.

"none. What am I working for? Mom will definitely pull me home and match up with a rich businessman. After all you are rich, Bara Group is bigger than my papa company. The tega told your wife to keep working..."

Moeis coughed at her hearing. He had not expected Micah to speak like that. His cousin misunderstood him.

"He works of his own accord. Lyra wanted to use her knowledge during college and help with financial supervision of my company. "the answer is sure.

Micah clucked in disbelief.

"You don't understand his heart! Every woman wants to be a queen, she wants to be the perfect mistress. Like I wanted to be a princess when I got married! Always being served, getting everything we want, can rule at will. Which woman wouldn't want to live like that??"

Even so Moeis listened to Micah's words seriously. He thought, is that true?

"Not all women are the same. And Lyra is different from you"

"Well, if you don't believe it..."

Lyra was back and joined at the dinner table.

"What are you talking about?" ask her curious.

"We're talking about princesses." Micah replied in the tone of a story telling.

Moeis looked at him with a strange look. While Lyra did not understand why they were talking about princess.

Lyra and Moeis are in the same elevator heading upstairs. They left together and Moeis drove the car.

The elevator shows the 39th floor, Lyra getting ready to go out.

"I've arrived.. bye" he said softly.

Moeis nodded. Finally got out of the elevator. Lyra saw him wondering.

"Why did you come out? Your room is still upstairs? What's up?"

"We're talking in your room" said Moeis briefly. He walked first, not wanting to be noticed by his employees.

"What's wrong?" tanya Lyra closed the door of her room.

Moeis seemed hesitant to talk or not. They sat on the couch together.

"Do you really want to work? Tell the truth.."

Lyra did not understand. What's with that question? Is his work unsatisfactory?

"Yes, I'm serious about work. I'm trying to do my best"

But Moeis' hand stopped her speech.

"No, that's not what I asked. But, do you really want to work or just at home like... shop or gather with your friends?"

He should have let Lyra enjoy her money. Give him everything he wants.

"I don't understand your question. I really want to be serious about that decision. What's wrong with you.."

Lyra laughed lightly at Moeis' attitude like this.

"Alright, but just say it whenever you feel tired and want to stop. There are a lot of people who want to get your position too.."

Lyra hugged Moeis from the side.

"Hmm. Just get that guy ready. Then I'll stop when I'm pregnant. Ya??"

Moeis nodded and smiled.

"Yes, then I'm in the room now. We meet at a meeting later." he said stroking Lyra's head.

"Good, sir"

Lyra escorted Moeis out and saw her secretary at the front desk standing up and bowing to Moeis.

After Moeis enters the elevator. Lyra's approaching Valerie's desk.

"Have you prepared for the meeting?"

"Already, Mom. In a moment we can go straight to the meeting room"

"All right.."

Lyra tried to look slightly towards Valerie's feet. Turns out her secretary hasn't replaced the heels with the ones she should have.

But Lyra had prepared the heels. He ordered it himself and sent it by courier.

Lyra returned after taking her from the room.

"Valerie.wear this to come with me to the meeting later. I don't want you to look any different than the other secretaries. Use it to look professional"

His secretary stared in disbelief and opened the box. He did not know what to say, grateful or ashamed.

Valerie lowered her head.

"Thank you, Mom. I'll wear it and return it later. Sorry for not getting heels like this.."

"No need to return it. Here's toyou. Consider it our meeting gift. Yeah, I'll get the documents inside"

Meanwhile, Valerie changed heels and gathered her confidence. Then take some of his meeting needs.

He followed Lyra into the meeting room on the 40th floor.

Inside this large room with a spacious and elongated table some higher-ups were already present with their secretary who was sitting in his back seat.

Lyra got the 3rd position from the end, the seat that Moeis would sit on.

Not long after, the door opened with the presence of Moeis. They stared at each other for only a few seconds to maintain professionalism.

In the middle of a meeting. Lyra saw her phone on. There is an incoming message notification.

Moeis: When did you come forward?

Lyra slightly looked at her left right. So that no one sees the screen of his phone. Try to stay as cool and calm as possible.

Lyra: I thought after this, why?

Moeis: No..

Lyra: Don't be weird. I don't want to make a mistake because of you. Okay well?

Moeis: Yes, yes...

And true. Now it's time for Lyra to go ahead with the presentation.

Some secretaries seemed to whisper little looking at him. They were quite amazed by the beauty of the wife of their CEO. And seeing the two of them in one room without saying hello is enough to be a conversation in the employee chat group.

Moeis sends a message to be read by Lyra as soon as it's done.

Moeis: I will kill those old officials who look at you with an enchanted look.

Seriate...
