Lily's workroom is on the third floor, where the finance department is located. Papa introduced Lily to all the employees this morning. Now Lily is struggling with financial data displayed on her laptop screen. He matched the evidence of transactions piling up on his desk. Lily was very happy to do it.
Financial, accounting and tax staff are all neat at work. So Lily had no trouble making a report that was delayed by a few months. All transaction proofs are complete and neatly arranged in folders.
"Good morning, Miss Lily. This is the company's newspaper account I asked for. I've also made a photo of his coffee" Yessi, an accounting staff member, appeared in Lily's room after she knocked on the door. The door to the room was Lily opening.
"Well, thank you, Miss Yessi" Lily said. This morning, he met all of his staff. All of his staff are already married and over thirty years old. Despite that, everyone still respects Lily who is younger.
Trio!!!
A message came in on Lily's phone. It turns out brother Angga.
'Ly, today you're not going to the office. Brother Andin entered the hospital. It's time to give birth'
Lily was happy and excited. Glad he'll have a nephew soon. Deg-degan because she knows how a mother struggles to give birth.

Rakha sat in the living room of Dina's parents' house. He was seen sitting restlessly in front of Dina's parents. Moreover, the eyes of his mother who was looking at him with a slurred look, made him shudder.
"Dina told us everything" her father Dina opened his voice. His mother Dina sat beside him with a vexed look at Rakha. How not all this time he was always proud of his daughter-in-law to everyone. His son-in-law was a wealthy successful businessman. It turns out it was all a lie.
"Dina sold all the things you gave her. He plans to return the money to the rightful person" Dina's father said.
"Dad asked you to return it. I don't want any problems later on involving us because of you" he continued.
"Especially the person you use the money is the family owner of the hotel where Dina works now. You don't fuck around, Rakha. Her husband was a very famous rich businessman. Mother does not want Dina and we are affected by your behavior" her mother Dina said very upset.
Rakha remained silent. He was actually very scared too. She also recalled Luisa's words about the possibility of her business being able to be destroyed by Ran Curtis or Rico Hoover. They are people who have a big influence. Certainly not his match.
Then he glanced at Dina at a glance. She just found out that Dina is now working at the Hoover group hotel.
"The letter that Lily signed must also be returned. Since you forced her to sign by kidnapping her" Dina glanced back at Rakha.
His father and mother looked surprised because Dina had not told him about this.
"What?? you kidnapped Lily? Oh yes, you are. It was an act of evil" Dina's mother screamed in panic.
"Let's not see you later. I won't stay silent like this. Tomorrow too you must immediately return the money" Mother Dina still panicked mixed with anger as her hands massaged her forehead that hurt.
"Everything must be resolved immediately" continued Dina's mother.
"Patience, Mom. This can definitely be resolved. According to Dina, Lily was a good person. She could definitely forgive if Rakha apologized kindly" Her father tried to calm her down.
"Hopefully" murmured Dina.
"Dad and mom, just calm down. I'll finish everything. I will meet them to return the money and apologize" Rakha said, bowing her head.
"How can we calm down? Your actions like that are very frightening, an act of evil. It's good to say calm down" his mother grumbled.
"Already, mom. What's important now is that Rakha needs time to meet Lily and her family. If possible soon" said his father Dina.
"You asked Jamie to talk to Ran sir. Ask permission to meet Lily. Yesterday I made an appointment for Thursday, but I said the father who should have met them was you" Dina said.
Rakha rushes to reach for her phone and calls Jamie.
About five minutes he talked to Jamie.
"Jamie will tell Ran Curtis. Later he said again" Rakha kept his phone back in his pocket.
"Yes already then. Let us know if there's an answer" Dina's father said.
"Regarding your divorce proceedings. Don't delay either. Quickly finish" continued his father.
"Yes, remember that. I don't want to have a daughter-in-law like you. Just make it ashamed. What if people find out about this? Where do we put our faces?" Dina's mother glanced at Rakha, then hurried away from the living room while pulling Dina's hand.
"Please if you want to go home. Don't forget to tell us if there's any more news"dina's father drove Rakha away gently.
"Good, dad. I'm pampering. I will tell you later if there is an answer" said Rakha.
He rushes off on his bike to the cafe near Jamie's office. On the phone, Jamie asked him to meet. He already knows, Jamie must have known what he did to Lily. And it's likely that Jamie will scold him all out.
"Gue in the VIP room, you just go in. Tell me you're my friend" Jamie's voice was on the phone when Rakha arrived at the parking lot and called her.
It was clear from her words that Jamie was angry. Rakha sighed. He was wrong anyway. If he did not apologize to Lily and her family, her life would definitely be ruined. His business was destroyed, applying for jobs where it was difficult. Because it looks like his name has been blacklisted in all companies. Even when he applied at the office of Deni Sumarno through the help of Luisa. As soon as he sent his data, suddenly his job vacancy was filled. Though previously Luisa had made sure the vacancy was still available and Deni Sumarno's aide made sure his friend Luisa could work there.
"So..you are now beginning to feel regret, Kha?" Jamie asked. Now his tone began to soften. Maybe pity to see the appearance of Rakha who is haggard and looks stressed.
Rakha nodded in response to Jamie's question. He did not even dare to look at Jamie's face.
"It doesn't have to be so with me. You're wrong to Lily's mom, not to me" Jamie said, sighing in anger.
"Even though I'm ashamed to know what you did to Lily's mom. Not because she's my boss's wife. But your actions are a crime" Jamie looked down at Rakha who was still bowed in shame.
"Sorry, Jam. If I'm embarrassed. I'm sorry too" Rakha said slowly.
"So you mean to ask to see Lily and Ran sir what?"
"You apologize and give Lily some of her money back. The rest I will take pity if I can work again" said Rakha. He raised his face slowly.
"Okay, I'll try to ask Ran for time."
"Actually when Dina asked for time to meet, they already allowed. But because this time you want to meet, I make sure yes or no" said Jamie. For a long time he felt sorry for Rakha too. Looks desperate and cutie.
"Pak Ran and Miss Lily are good people. If your intentions are good, I think they'll happily forgive you" Jamie said.
"Yes, already. Now we eat first. What do you want to eat? I'll buy you lunch" Jamie pushed a button to call the waitress.
"Pick what you like. Don't hesitate. We've known you for a long time, right?. If you want to turn out well, maybe you can still be my friend, Kha" Jamie handed me a menu book. Rakha. Not long after a waitress came to them and recorded their order on the tablet he held.
Rakha looked at Jamie doubtfully. Jamie's still good to him. Now, Jamie's attitude is very different. It used to be that he knew Jamie was a very arrogant and arrogant person. But now Jamie looks very good at regulating his emotions.
