" We plan to hold a year-end promo by giving discounted room prices up to fifty percent to attract guests to stay at our hotel. We will also bring famous artists on old and new nights later. What about Mr Gavin?"
Gavin massaged his temple, he was completely unfocused on listening to what the employees from the marketing division were saying.
" Mister Gavin?" ask the marketing staff back.
" Oh, yes .. Just do your best." Gavin. He himself did not know what his employees were saying.
" Sir Ronald, please continue to lead the meeting, yes! I still have needs." Gavin then got up from his seat.
" Okay, Mr. Gavin." Mr. Ronald said. And Gavin then left the meeting room to his study.
Ddrrtt
Gavin glanced at his vibrating phone. He found the name Alexa that appeared on his phone screen at that time. He quickly answered the incoming call from Natasha.
" Hello, what's up Alexa?" gavin asked as he received an incoming call from Natasha.
" Assalamualaikum, Brother Gavin. Where is my brother?"
" Waalaikumsalam, I'm in the office. What's up?"
" Sister Gavin is busy?"
" I just got out of the meeting room."
" Hmmm, is Brother Gavin okay?"
Gavin scrunched his forehead. He immediately remembered that his wife had met his cousin's sister today. Did Azzahra tell Natasha about what she said last night? thought Gavin.
" I'm fine, Alexa."
" Sister, we're brothers, right? If there's a problem for Gavin, I want to help him. Like when Brother Gavin helped me when I was in trouble." Natasha also felt that there was something hidden by her cousin from her
Gavin let out a long sigh not directly answering Natasha's question.
" sister?"
" I can't say it right now, Alexa." Finally, Gavin admitted that there are things that are currently stuck in his heart and mind.
" What problem, brother? Work or personal?" Natasha is intrigued by Gavin's story.
" My personal problem."
" Personal issue? Sis, but this isn't about infidelity, is it? I'd hate Gavin if it was about that! Although Brother Gavin is my own cousin, but I will not tolerate if Brother Gavin cheats on Rara!" ketus Natasha's.
" It's about someone from my past, Alexa." Gavin opened up a little about the problem.
" Tuh, right! It must be Kak Gavin's ex-girlfriend, right?! He must be willing to take it back again, right?! Sis, just be careful if Brother Gavin dares to go back with his ex-sister, I fired Brother Gavin to be my cousin's brother!" threaten Natasha's.
Gavin immediately swallowed his saliva when he heard the threat from his cousin's sister. Now he can imagine not only Azzahra and his family will hate him, but also Natasha and maybe Yoga and Yoga family.
" Axa, give me some time to get this done. But I'm asking you to trust me, if I don't intend to hurt Rara. It's part of my past and there's something I need to solve." Gavin tries to convince Natasha.
" Okay, but when I get to Gavin ...."
" Believe in brother, Alexa. I can't lie to you." Gavin cuts Natasha's speech.
This time it sounded Natasha exhaling loudly.
" Okay, I believe." The next sentence was heard from Natasha's mouth.
" Thanks, Alexa. But please, don't tell this to Rara. I don't want him to worry before I get any clarity on this." Gavin asks Natasha to keep it a secret from Azzahra.
" Sister, honestly Rara who asked for help I asked the problem that Kak Gavin is experiencing right now. What do I have to answer if Rara asks?"
" Let's just say, I told you about my business in Germany."
" But Brother Gavin promised soon to tell me what the problem is, brother! I thought this way."
" You don't worry about brother. You should think about your health, your content. Brother doesn't want my niece-to-be why." Gavin tries to calm his cousin's sister down.

Gavin knocks on the door of Dad David's study and enters it immediately.
" Assalamualaikum, Dad .." Gavin said.
" Waalaikumsalam .." replied the people in Dad David's office.
" Gavin, come here, son." Dad David immediately called Gavin to come closer. In the room is Aunt Linda, the wife of Dad David and two men she does not know.
" Aunty ..." Gavin greets his stepmother.
" Hi, Gavin ..." Aunt Linda then hugged and rubbed Gavin's back trying to channel support as a parent even though she was just a connecting mother.
" Hopefully all the problems will be solved, son." Aunt Linda wishes you the best.
" Thank you, Tan." Gavin slapped back Aunt Linda. Soon Aunt Linda came out of her husband's office.
" Sit, Son." Dad David patted the spot next to him telling Gavin to sit next to him.
" Secondly, this is Rizal and Vito. Those who will help you find Jovanka and her son." Dad David introduces Gavin to the two people he asks to help Gavin.
" Good night, Mr. Gavin. I am Rizal and this is my colleague Vito" Rizal greeted Gavin as he reached out his hand and introduced his co-worker.
" Call Gavin, Mr. Rizal." Gavin welcomes Rizal's hand and then turns to meet Vito.
" Dad told them a little about your problems. The day after tomorrow they will both go to Singapore to begin the search. Hopefully this can find a bright spot." Dad David is hopeful.
" I'm sorry, Mr. Gavin. What does your friend say when you meet the woman you're looking for?" rizal asked starting to investigate.
" Around Orchard Central."
" When did your friend meet that woman?" ask Rizal back.
" About five days ago she said."
" Did the woman not tell her where she lived or her phone number?"
Gavin shook his head. " No, because the reason didn't want me to know about the kid."
Rizal nodded his head while stroking his jaw.
" If I may know, what is Jovanka's citizenship status? WNI or ...."
" Know me he's WNI and has a family in Manado. I don't know where his family's address is. All this time I knew he was in college and living alone in Germany."
" It's a bit difficult actually because the place we have to explore is not in Indonesia, but I will try my best to find the whereabouts of Miss Jovanka and her child" said Rizal.
" Thank you, Zal. I wish you could help this Om kid." Dad David is back.
" Yes, Om. I will try as much as I can do" said Rizal.
" Alright, I think in the meantime the info we need is enough. Excuse me, Mr. David. Mr. Gavin." Rizal and Vito then say goodbye to Dad David and Gavin.
" Oh yes, Mr. Gavin. Can I have your friend's phone number and address?" rizal asked before leaving Dad David's study.
" Oh, of course. I'll send Steven's address and phone number" Gavin replied..
" Okay, Mr. Gavin. Excuse me first. Good night." Rizal and Vito leave Gavin and David.
" Hopefully Rizal can help you, son." Dad David patted Gavin on the shoulder.
" I hope so, Dad." Gavin glanced at his watch already showing the pulley seven nights.
" I'll go home first, Dad." Gavin hugs Dad David's body.
" You don't want to go to dinner first? Your mama has prepared your favorite meal."
" Next time, Dad. Rara must be waiting for me to come home." Gavin refused Dad David's subtle invitation to eat together because he remembered his wife must be waiting for his arrival.
" Yes already then. Be careful on the road. Greetings to Rara, yes!"
" Yes, Dad. Ariston ...."
" Neurova ..." David returns Gavin's greeting before Gavin's body disappears behind the door.

Hmmm🤔🤔 what Rizal can help Gavin find Jovanka? He once helped Dirga find the whereabouts of Kirania on RTB.
But Readers hoped Jovanka wouldn't be found. Let Gavin and Rara be safe 😂😂
