Bella was not at all concentrated with the meeting held this time. There he even thought about the hot activities he did an hour before this meeting took place. This meeting was postponed because he needed to prepare for the fact that he was busy bathing in self-cleaning.
Bad guy, he thought. She smiled to herself and bit her lips.
"Bella!" bentak Setiawan, his father, when asked Bella but not also answered. Everyone looked towards him. The shocked Bella instantly dropped the pen in her hand.
"You're daydreaming in the middle of the weird problem we're discussing. It's between the life and death of this company. I hope you understand, my son!"
"I'm sorry, my father is thinking about it too" Bella told herself, Setiawan and several other members of the meeting raised eyebrows simultaneously while looking at her.
"What's wrong?" ask Bella without guilt. Riska patted her forehead. There is something wrong with this child, he thought.
"Already, we continue the meeting," said Setiawan did not want to take a headache. The meeting continued again. All faces looked gloomy and tense. They did not find the right way for this matter to be resolved properly.
Not long after that someone started to enter the meeting room. The man faced towards Setiawan.
"Sir, Mr. David Sinclair is in front of your room, he wants to talk to you about the deal that Miss Bella and her have agreed to" Dad's assistant said.
Setiawan looked towards Bella. But the woman also looked surprised. David came here so quickly to solve the problem.
"He's willing to work with us, but I don't know if he's responding quickly to my proposal" Bella said.
Setiawan then turned his gaze to his assistant.
"Tell me if I'll see him in a quarter of an hour" Setiawan said.
After resigning, he told Bella to continue and lead the meeting, while he and Riska prepared to meet their prospective big clients.
Setiawan sees David coming with a woman seen as his secretary and five men, three of whom are more visible as bodyguards.
"Mr David is delighted that such a big man in the garment business as you came to our small company" Setiawan said, extending his hand. David then received the man's hand and they shook hands.
"You could be, this is a good company and I see the work of this company is very neat and quality, both seen from the stitching and the quality of materials and colors. For that, we are here to invest in capital," said David.
"Then we talk about this matter inside," Setiawan said.
They then stepped into Setiawan's office. David looked around the room.
"Our room does look smaller than your room" Setiawan said. He invited his guests to sit down.
"It's good, mine is just like yours" replied David. In fact, David's room is very wide half of the area of one floor of his building made his room and the private space behind the room. Where he rested from the busyness that always afflicted him every day.
"You're too low," replied Setiawan. He began to like the nature of this man who was low profile.
Very different from Cristian who rarely speaks and looks arrogant. His appeal.
"First because the amount of production you produce is half less than we need. Both prices are higher than the two foreign-owned companies that want to work with us" David said.
Setiawan lowered his head, his chin dropped and decayed instantly. Goddess Fortuna seemed to be not on his side.
"J&J is one-quarter mine and three-quarters of my brother's in Italy. I only handle production and marketing in Southeast Asia. So I don't have the authority to just decide this. We have to talk about this at a meeting in Italy next month."
"So you came here to talk about the rejection of the proposal?" ask Setiawan.
"It could be half right" replied David.
"meaning?" ask Setiawan a little hope.
"I want to invest some of my funds into this company. Long term investment of course. We will add tools and workers so that our production increases sharply. I also need to tell Bella the places where she can get cheap and quality materials and how to produce goods to our desired quality standards. For that to be a while until the company is stable I want to be authorized to take the decision to get this company forward" said David.
"Do you want to be the head of the company?" tanya Setiawan was suspicious.
"Of course not, I'm already pretty busy with my current job. It's just that I every decision you make must be your permission to 'while' so you can learn about how we work."
Those in the room were silent and did not understand.
"Look Miss Bella will discuss the progress of this project with me and determine what steps will be needed for the company's progress in the future. And about leadership let you stay there. So I just designed your marketing and production strategies that run it" David said.
For a moment Setiawan thought, this man's offer is very good in favor of both parties. Selling half of the company's stock is better than losing the entire company.
"But we have a lot of debt to the bank to cover the losses over the past few months" Setiawan said.
David listened carefully. He crossed his legs and straightened his back.
"We have a huge debt while almost half of the production in these three months is still sitting in the company's warehouses. Some of it is still in credit."
"You're investing in the wrong place" Setiawan said.
"Not if you're following all my interactions."
"I need big funds to pay my debt, for that I will sell half my shares," Setiawan said.
"All right, I'll buy it. Tell me how much it's worth?" david asked, relaxed. But he knew if he actually bought a bankrupt company that was no longer worth. This was the price he had to spend to entrap Bella deeper into his side. And he'll do that even if his entire fortune runs out for this.
"One hundred and fifty billion" said Setiawan. David smiled. That's not even five percent of his wealth.
"Well, I'll buy it" said David. Setiawan smiled with relief. "But on condition that for a while Miss Bella is in my office until this company stabilizes" the man continued.
"What's this?" bella asked in surprise when she heard her name called.
