Married to Miss Kim

An Offer

After driving Kimmy to the psychologist clinic, Archie drove his car straight to his office. Archie's corporate office just happens to be a short distance from Kimmy's psychology clinic. Right now, all his employees are talking about Archie. It was because the news that Archie was married spread very quickly. They did not expect that his handsome and successful boss had given up his single life.

Of course, what makes them more surprised is that the bride is not Flowi. Flowi is known by all Archie employees. They know the woman because Flowi is often in and out of her boss' company. Many are heartbroken over the news of Archie and Kimmy's wedding. Indeed, female employees put their heart to the successful and charming boss.

"Lucky Miss Kimmy!" That's what female employees say when someone shares a photo of Archie and Kimmy's wedding in the office whatsapp group.

Archie gets in front of the office. All employees are talking about the marriage of the owner of the company. Archie seemed to not care about his employees who were whispering about him. He continued to step inside the company building that clawed at the sky. When Archie arrived at the hotel lobby, he saw his father-in-law sitting on the sofa while reading a new magazine.

"Pa?" Archie wondered why his father-in-law was in his office. Indeed, Archie knows Kai very well, because from High School, Archie is friendly with Jasper, Kai's first child or Kimberly's older brother.

"Archie," Kai immediately stood up from his seat.

"What's papa doing here? Why not wait in my room?" Archie felt bad to see Kai sitting alone in the chair in the lobby.

"Sorry, sir! I told Mr. Kai to wait in the master's room" a receptionist came straight to Archie. He was afraid that his boss would scold him, especially if they knew Kai's current status was Archie's father-in-law.

"Why don't you lead papa into my room?" Archie asked in annoyance.

"It has. Papa who does not want. Papa doesn't want to be too presumptuous to go into your room, while you haven't come yet" Kai interceded.

"Next time don't be disrespectful to papa!" Archie gave the receptionist an ultimatum.

"It has. Not his fault," Kai defended.

"Then let's go to my room, Pa!" Take Archie to his father-in-law.

Kai nodded. Archie immediately guessed the arrival of his father-in-law. Definitely nothing more than to talk about Kimmy. But Archie doesn't know what Kai's going to talk about. Is that so important? Until a reliable businessman who hardly has free time like Kai comes alone to the office of his company? Archie was curious.

"Please come in, Pa!" Archie invites Kai into his room.

Kai enters Archie's work room that looks aesthetic and contemporary. The atmosphere of her daughter-in-law's workspace was very pleasant. Moreover, there is a balcony commonly used by Archie to rest for a while and breathe the city air.

"Is there anything papa's come over here?" Archie asked the point.

"There's something you want to talk about," Kai replied with his beautiful face. Although already middle-aged, but the good looks do not fade from his face.

"Please sit down, Pa!" Archie.

Kai sat down on the chair facing his daughter-in-law. At first glance he saw a picture frame on the table of his daughter-in-law. The photo was of Archie and Fnowi in London.

"Sorry, Pa!" Archie took the picture. He felt so stupid not to get rid of the photo. His heart is beating fast. Will his father-in-law be angry?

"It's okay. Papa cursed him," Kai seemed to understand.

"Sorry, Pa!" Archie once again apologized. He felt disrespectful by displaying a picture of another woman, while his father-in-law came to visit and saw the photo.

"Papa understands. Papa has felt the same way you do now" Kai said. Archie rounded his eyes in surprise.

"So, papa?" Archie looked curious.

"Yes. Papa and Mama from Kimmy did not love each other and papa already had a lover at that time," Kai answered Archie's curiosity.

For a moment Archie saw the difference in the expression of his father-in-law's face. Now Kai's gaze turned sad.

"Ar, papa did that because papa thought you could heal Kimmy's trauma" Kai's eyes turned sad.

"Trauma? What trauma, Pa?" Archie asked in confusion.

"If you don't know Kimmy, but I'm sure you at least know a little about Kimmy not opening her heart or having a relationship with any man?"

"Yes. Archie never heard of Kimmy dating. Then, about the trauma?" Archie looked impatient.

"When Kimmy was in high school, she fell in love with a man. His name is Aaron. He was a friend at Kimmy's school. Kimmy seems to like Aaron a lot. Every day, Kimmy's day is full of joy. Even Aaron promised he'd always be there for Kimmy" Kai stopped the story. He seemed to be breathing air to relieve his slightly claustrophobic chest.

"Then, Pa?"

"Kimmy believes fully in the man. Even Aaron promises a relationship if they are adults later. Until one day, Aaron took Kimmy somewhere. Aaron takes Kimmy and hands Kimmy over to an old man, "there is a tinge of anger as Kai says the end of his sentence.

"Old man? You mean papa Kimmy was sold to be a call woman?" Archie almost yelled.

"No," Kai laughed then his face turned serious.

"Aaorn gave up Kimmy as a means of revenge for his father."

"Tool for revenge? Mean papa?" Archie is more interested in hearing the story from Kai.

"So, Aaron was told by his father to approach Kimmy for revenge. Aaron's father was a big company owner. One day, his company went bankrupt because it lost to compete with Kimmy's grandfather. As you know, from childhood Kimmy lived with his grandfather. Grandpa William was so loving and pampering Kimmy. It was known to Aaron's family. They want to make William's grandfather in pain and make Kimmy a tool for revenge" Kai told a long story.

"Sweet! Didn't their family company go bankrupt because it lost to William's grandfather's company? Why then should revenge?" Archie seemed annoyed to hear the story from his father-in-law.

"Thinking people are different, Ar. Here's world. There are good people and bad people. They play a role in this world according to the portion. If there were no bad people, the world would not be colored."

"Then, what did they do to Kimmy? Did they harass Kimmy?" There was a worried tone in his voice.

"Of course not. Once there, they tie Kimmy up and call William's grandfather to give William half of his company as collateral. Otherwise, Kimmy would they b*nuh. Grandpa William came to save Kimmy. There Aaron's father beat up Kimmy and Aaron tortured Kimmy in front of my father. But they are wrong, even though they are old, but William's grandfather is not as weak as they think. He fought and beat up the father and son. Since then, Kimmy doesn't believe in one relationship and another."

Archie's silent. He did not expect his wife to experience such trauma.

"Papa is wrong" Kai's eyes glazed over.

"Papa was wrong for forcing Kimmy to marry. Papa almost got her married to bad guys. Papa did that so that Kimmy's trauma soon healed and of course to maintain a relationship with papa's colleagues who have been good. Army, Kimmy's been through a terrible trauma. If he remembered the event, Kimmy would feel short of breath, he would often hold his chest like pain and it would hurt papa. A psychiatrist who handled Kimmy said, Kimmy can be cured by finding a partner who can divert from the trauma. In the end, you're the one who married Kimmy. Papa's heart was so happy when your father offered you as a substitute bride. However, you should also be discouraged because you already have a lover," Kai held back so that tears did not seep from his eyes. He still keeps his authority in front of his son-in-law.

"Sorry, Pa. But Archie loves Flowi," despite the weight, Archie does have to tell the truth.

"Can't you try to open your heart to Kimmy and learn to love her?" There was a plea tone from Kai's question. It was all he did for his beloved daughter.

"It doesn't seem like it, Pa. I love my girlfriend so much" Archie bluntly. He felt there was no need for anything to be covered from Kai.

"Then, papa made an offer. Please accompany Kimmy for a moment and heal the trauma she's been through. After Kimmy recovers, you can make a decision for your life" Kai gave an offer.
