Married for Papa

Eliza's Cunning Strategies

"Excuse me, good afternoon. Does Mr Bryan exist?"

"Miss made an appointment?" Said one of the cynical receptionists, she did not like Eliza's presence in the company.

"Must make an appointment first, Mbak?" Ask Eliza.

"The procedure is like that, miss, unless you are one of the family or the mistress of the boss owner of this company, then directly into the workspace boss sir is not a problem!"

Jem!

The words of one of the receptionists on duty today directly hit Eliza's heart. His chest was painful and the woman did not expect that there would be someone openly showing his dislike for him.

One of the receptionists was immediately nudged by a friend next to him and he whispered "what are you doing, if he reports your actions to Mr. Bryan and finally fired how?"

"I just run the task according to the procedure, is it wrong?"

It felt like Eliza tore the mouth of the woman before her with her own hands if she did not remember the intention of revenge maybe now she had kicked the table and made a commotion in the office.

"Ehm, then I'll call Rudy, Mr. Bryan's assistant and ask him to pick me up here."

"Please, if that's what you want!"

Eliza sat on the guest waiting sofa and pulled out her phone from a black slash bag brand LV model pont 9 classic flap bag measuring 23 centi meters. The woman opened her mobile password and searched Rudy's name in the phone book.

"Halo Rudy, I want to meet Bryan but haven't made an appointment yet. Can you come down to the lobby and pick me up? I'm in trouble because the receptionist here won't let me in."

"Wait a minute, miss, I'll pass it to Mr. Bryan after getting approval and pick you up below." Rudy's word is on the phone.

"I'll wait."

Eliza turned off the phone and waited for Rudy to pick her up.

"Sir, there's Miss Eliza in the lobby and she's asking permission to see you."

"Send in."

"Well, I'll pick up Miss Eliza in the lobby."

Bryan stopped his work and glanced at Rudy. The man loosened his black tie.

"Pick up, you mean?" Bryan frowned.

"The receptionist didn't let Miss Eliza in because she didn't make an appointment with you first." Rudy was honest because he did not want to cover anything from his boss.

Bryan took a long breath.

"Get him now."

Without waiting for a long time, Rudy immediately executed Bryan's orders. The man opened the door of the room, closed it again and pressed the elevator button when the elevator door opened he immediately entered.

"Miss Eliza, come with me."

"Good."

Eliza stood up and followed Rudy from behind. The woman took a quick glance at the three receptionists standing behind the table and muttered "just look, I will fire you if my goal of revenge is achieved." Eliza clenched her hands and gritted her teeth.

Your treatment will be my motivation to get closer to Bryan. So far everything has gone smoothly according to plan but I won't be satisfied before seeing Mrs Bryan take off and leave her husband. (Dwelling)

Eliza walked haughtily past the reception desk and ignored the cynical gazes of the three standing guard employees.

"Basic is shameless!"

"Hush, stop it. It's not good to keep her down."

"I don't like it when a woman dares to flirt with someone's husband. In this world there are still many other men but why seize people's husbands."

"That would-be actor must be!"

"The news is not necessarily true, if it is wrong to fall slander loh."

"Excuse me sir."

"Good day, Mr. Bryan." Greet Eliza with a contrived tone of voice.

"Hmm, please sit down." Bryan let Eliza sit on the chair."

"Thank you."

"Rudy, please leave us both."

"Good sir."

Rudy bowed and left them both.

"Three receptionists are great too, Ry, you must have paid them a big salary!" Sindir Eliza opened the conversation.

"What did they do to you?" Said Bryan coldly.

"They forbid me from seeing you because I haven't made an appointment." Eliza turned her gaze around the room.

"They're just doing their job so don't take it personally." Bryan's eyes were still focused on the screen in front of him.

"Ry, how long have you been so cold to me?"

Bryan shook his head, the man did not glance at his interlocutor at all.

"Tomorrow you have no show? Join me at the high school reunion." Eliza switched the conversation.

"Maybe this is not the time to explain everything." Eliza said in her heart.

"I heard that Gugun and Rudy your assistant will come as well. Why don't we try to come together to the show tomorrow. It's gonna be exciting. We haven't been together for a long time. Last time...."

"Before the school's farewell day, exactly one day before you left me!" Said Bryan coldly.

Eliza could feel how her heart ache knowing she disappeared like swallowed by the earth, for almost eight years of separation now they meet again there must be a sense of awkward because it has long not met. Eliza can understand and not blame Bryan for the man's attitude towards her. The woman will slowly correct the mistake she once made while carrying out an act of revenge against Reymond Smith.

"Ehm, that's right. That's why I hope you're willing to come with me because there's something important I want to say."

"Ri!"

"Ri!"

Eliza called Bryan's name gently.

"Good!"

"Just send me your apartment address, I'll pick you up tomorrow."

"Certainly 'Is?" Eliza saw a sigh hearing Bryan say.

Finally, it is not in vain that I use a surefire trick to melt your heart Ry. Tricks I used once when you were angry or jealous because of the many men who teased me. This shows that you still love me, right Ry? (Dame).

Why is it that every time this woman calls my name so gently that my heart cannot bear to refuse her invitation. Do I still love him? Has this taste really not disappeared completely? (Bryan).

Bryan was made dizzy by his own thoughts. He was completely confused by his feelings at this moment. Can't judge if he still loves Eliza or has forgotten her. If you have forgotten it then why every time you meet the heart of the man is always racing. Then how he felt about Aluna, his legal wife. Didn't he also feel a strange feeling every time he was with the girl?

"Is it possible that I love these two women at the same time?" Bryan asked in his heart.

"I'll pick you up at exactly four in the afternoon so as not to get stuck in traffic."

"Okay, thanks Ry."

"Oh yeah, I want to ask you how the construction of the small museum that I want to build is going to continue."

"Day waiting for time to survey the location."

"Maybe one more week I'm going to Bandung. All the designs and floor plans are being worked on by my subordinates."

"Wow, you guys are so professional. It's not wrong to trust your company, Ry." Eliza was amazed by the performance of Bryan and the company employees.
