Marrying My Ex-Husband's Boss

Box of Balloons

Harris and Johan are now in the workspace, completing work that has been delayed by the events of the past few days. Johan is not as smart as Reno, but he is quite helpful.

Since following the will of his father, his business in the business world is easier. And somehow, business competitors who initially always messed up in every project of cooperation, now, get away by themselves. Harris suspects that this is the interference of her father and Assistant Toni.

In the past, although Star was part of the WD group, and Harris was the heir to the WD group, the business rivals did not hesitate to corner Harris in various ways. Although, in the end, thanks to the capable abilities of Harris, Reno and Marsha, as well as Johan as the team leader of the bodyguards, they always managed to maintain the existence of Star.

And, tomorrow is, his last day is in Star because officially Mr. Dirga will introduce him as his replacement. It was a huge burden of course, but Harris had no choice but to obey his Papa.

Two hours had already they finished the pile of papers in front of them. Harris stretched his body, his fingers clinging to each other above his head. Tired, of course in the feel of this man full of charm. His eagle-sharp black eyes stared at the clock hanging on the wall.

"What are your plans regarding Star, sir?" Ask Johan.

"While Reno hasn't returned, Marsha will be in charge of Star" Harris replied. "What do you think?"

"Marsha can indeed be relied on, sir. I'm sure, he's able to run the company well" replied Johan.

“Jo, rest, it's late” His orders to Johan who is still paying attention to the sheet of paper in front of him.

“You must also rest Sir, tomorrow is a very important day” replied Johan.

“Of course, I'll check on the kids first” Harris got up from his swivel chair, then stepped towards the door. Johan gawked in disbelief at what he saw and heard. His eyes followed Harris who had left the room.

“Wah, need to report this Big Boss” Johan muttered. Johan, since Harris married Kira, is a double agent. In accordance with Mr. Dirga's orders, Johan was asked to keep an eye on Harris. Mr. Dirga was worried that Harris's bad temper might hurt Kira. However, that worry, until this second, never happened.

Johan, given the opportunity to work under Assistant Toni. The real opportunity he's been waiting for for 10 years working with Harris. Johan gets access to “markas” Toni's Assistant and the secret behind her all-year-old Toni Assistant. However, Johan had to hold him back, not wanting to offend Harris who disliked Assistant Toni less.

Harris opens the door to Kira's third room, which is now Harris's son as well. No matter what magnet Kira and her three children had, Harris was always interested in them. After finding out, it was Kira who saved him, now he had a reason to open his heart to them.

“Only fools abandon sweet angels like them” Harris murmured with a smile. He just looked without touching, worried about waking them up. They were not familiar with Harris. Harris himself was afraid that they would refuse when Harris approached. Looking at the elder's extremely cold gaze, Harris wasn't sure they liked it, despite seeing the little girl with round cheeks, her heart was tempted to bite her. And yes, this little girl's twin, always reminded Harris of her when she was her age.

Rian's a lucky guy who has two women who can give him the happiness Harris wants. Harris has everything, but his life is empty. Empty, like a body without life, only a skeleton with skin.

Harris sighed softly, now, he was about to start his new life, even though there was no love between the two, time would speak. As his father said, it's not bad to get married because of an arranged marriage. And that's right, at Harris' age now, it's not time to talk about your love. For adult men, love is a complicated thing, the more in search, the more in hiding. The more you pursue, the further away. But, if you stand in the right place, and put the right bait, love will come by itself. It's just a matter of time and how mature one's understanding of love is.

“All I've done, Sir. Madam must have been waiting” Johan said withholding a smile, while teasing her Master.

“You envy?” Harris was not far from Johan. Her hands were put in the pockets of the black pants she was wearing, plus a high-necked sweatshirt, which covered her neck, making her even more dazzling.

“Can I envy, Mister?” Johan continued to clear the table. How not to be jealous and angry? Johan was the first to find Kira, while driving his son to the house at that time, and Johan thought Kira was married. Now, the woman who had attracted him, became his Boss' wife.

“Please, as many as you want” replied Harris casually.

“I won't be able to, Sir. And don't want to,” Johan smiled to Harris. And Harris just laughed.

“So, now I no longer need, order a box of balloons for you ‘kan?” Keep Johan. He was trying to shake off the feelings that had been bothering him from the beginning.

“Have you thrown it away?” Harris asked annoyed that Johan was teasing her.

“Already, Sir. Your drawer has now been cleared of crime proof” Johan's laughter echoed throughout the room.

Harris harrumphed, is that also a crime? He said, it was love. What is love a crime?

“Sleep, Sir. Madam must be lonely,” Johan said with his laugh.

“You've been widowed too long, apparently. You don't see, how fierce is he?” Harris raised his voice. He was upset that Johan was mocking him. He knows everything, doesn't he?

“Wow, wow, there's something Mr Harris Dirgantara can't conquer, apparently?” Sindir Johan's.

“You think you can kiss a woman immediately? You can be cut off right then and there. Stupid” Harris screeching. "We don't love each other"

“Lelaki can do it without feeling love. Moreover, Madam is your legal, lawful wife, Boss. Is it possible that you still think, Madame of someone else? While others are treated like wives?” Johan ran out of the room as fast as lightning. He knows what Harris will do next.

“Awas you, Jo. I'll teach you a lesson, tomorrow” Harris who has lost the step chose to scream. Johan must have heard it.

Harris took her cell phone, and Kira's little bag that Johan had taken from work this afternoon. Intrigued by the contents of Kira's bag and cell phone, Harris opened it. It contained only a wallet and a cell phone as well as some plaster and a pen. Harris frowned, astonished by the lady's innate one. There are no women's special things there.

Wallet that contains only a few pieces of money, the amount of which is not up to one finger if counted. An ATM card, SIM C, ID card and a member card of the game arena.

Mobile phone, the first question that came to his mind, this is what year's phone? It felt like Harris was laughing, but considering Kira's hard life, she seemed to understand the woman's predicament. So, she didn't lie when she said she didn't give her ex-husband a living, she thought.

Harris sighed softly, pity. Harris stepped out the door of her study and headed for her room. Harris was endlessly thinking how to give something to Kira without even bothering her.

Harris closed the door slowly so Kira wouldn't wake up. This woman was really following what Harris had told her to do. No whining, no reason. Harris looked at the woman who was sleeping on the sofa, and sorrow adorned her face. I don't know what beauty is like, Harris is used to women wearing thick foundations. So he felt strange seeing Kira who appeared as she was. Shows the pores and acne scars on his face without shame. Even that stiff Marsha still wears powder.

Harris felt right in his heart. Comparing her time with Viona. There's nothing there. There is no beating, no overflowing feeling, and no bliss. But, when Harris put aside the strands of hair on Kira's face, there was a warm feeling running through her entire body. Harris smiled, there, there was happiness there, drowning in the brown bead of eyes that were now closed.

Harris moved Kira to bed, definitely not comfortable sleeping there. Especially after being sick, Kira needs a good rest.

“Pig! Heavy once” thought.

Harris put Kira down carefully, so as not to wake up and envelop her body. Harris lay face to face with the woman who had become his wife. And Harris still looked at him for a long time. A face full of sadness, a face that always needs protection and affection. A woman who is always happy in her own way, happy in her own creation, not seizing the happiness of others. Harris was still looking at Kira until her eyes felt heavy and tired. Unbeknownst to him, he finally fell asleep. Sleeping in the same blanket.
