Marrying my Nanny

Chapter 23

The rays of the morning sun infiltrate the crevices of the foliage, evaporating the dew in the grass, the bright light brings happiness to the green shoots and the birds chirping to fetch sustenance from the creator. Just like a man who last night went through the most beautiful night of his life, a beautiful smile with beautiful carved dimples all morning.

Hansel excitedly headed for the Anderson Company, today everything is going so perfectly. The morning meeting went well, some of the cooperation contracts that he was working on had reached an agreement and what made Hansel happier was that his daddy was abroad, so he was free from all the scolding and orders of the old man.

Occasionally Hansel, who was sitting behind a table with the deputy director, checked his phone periodically, hoping to be tucked away by a message from his wife. However, it seemed that this time he had to swallow a bitter pill of disappointment because what he expected did not happen, there was only one incoming message from the spy that he asked to keep an eye on the wife, and a moment of vexation burst out of his mouth when he came upon reports that Ara and Johan were having lunch together at a restaurant. However, Hansel tried to withstand the emotional turmoil in his heart and hoped there would be an explanation from Ara about this, but until late afternoon there was not a single message from the idol.

***

On the other hand, Ara was greeted with a warm embrace by her sidekick Gisel, once she reached the company. The friend continued to tell the horrendous things that happened during Ara's not working lately, although most of it contained only rumors that were not important, but Ara still listened to Gisel's story enthusiastically.

"...and this is the last one, Mr. Johan has chosen your successor, his name is Laras. In my opinion, he's a little bit coquettish and really cool" said Gisel a little annoyed.

"Indeed why?” ask Ara curiously.

"You'll find out when you see it," a vague answer was given by Gisel before they finally split up because they were indeed working in a different room.

Ara's spirit entered her room, and her footsteps stopped as soon as she opened the door. A beautiful and seductive woman with clothes that Ara thought were too narrow for her body size which was arguably too large on certain parts, made Ara frown in wonder.

'Is this the secretary who will take my place?' ara's mind, still silently pecking.

"You're Sahara huh? Greetings know me Laras, the new secretary of Johan sir," said the woman proudly.

Ara cleared her throat to remove her awkwardness, "Ah, yes . Nice to meet you, let's work hard" said Ara clumsily.

He does not understand how Johan selects his secretary, before Johan never liked women with a look like Laras. Usually Johan will prefer women who look simple. Like Ara.

"From last night Mr. Johan did not come home, and he advised that as soon as you came, to immediately prepare new clothes for him," Laras said with a forced smile, it seemed like he wanted himself to prepare new clothes for Johan, not Ara.

"Oh, okay. I'll get it ready soon" said Ara and passed away.

It did not take long, now Ara had knocked on the door of Johan's room with a paper bag in her hand.

"Get in" Johan's heavy voice rang out from inside the room.

Politely Ara entered the room of her former fiance, "Excuse me sir, here's your clothes" said Ara when she reached Johan.

"Yes, thanks Ara, just put it there!" johan's orders pointed to a table not far from Ara, "How are you doing Ara?" asked Johan as soon as Ara finished putting the paper bag on the table.

"My news is fine sir" Ara replied politely, trying to draw a line between her and Johan. Ara did not want any more misunderstandings about her closeness to Johan. Moreover, he is now trying to mend his relationship with Hansel, he does not want to get involved with Johan and his family any further, given how much he hates Miss Diana to Ara.

"You don't go to work four days, without any advance notice. You know it all makes me really worried. Where are you actually going?" johan's heavy voice was beautiful.

"I just feel a little unwell, and regarding the permission, I'm really sorry," explained Ara as disguised as possible.

"Is that so? all right, I'm glad you're okay. Have you met Laras?" ask Johan.

"Yes sir, if there's nothing more you need, I'll go back to my table. Excuse me," said Ara bowing her head slightly respectfully.

"But that's not in line with the company's rules!" argue Ara.

"Indeed why? This is my company, the rules are up to me from now on" Johan replied calmly.

Ara's hands clenched tightly, before Johan had always been a very disciplined person, right now the man before her looked very different from the Johan Ara knew, "I understand," said Ara then passed from Johan's room.

With a heavy heart Ara accompanied Johan to lunch at a restaurant not far from their office, and as Ara had expected, almost every employee would whisper or stare at him with a condescending gaze. They always judge Ara, saying that she still does not want to let go of Johan despite making the employee's favorite President hurt, saying that Ara is shameless, not wanting to let go of her, and that kind of bad stuff is now Ara's nickname in the office. I don't want him to go back to the company.

'Quiet Ara, just be patient, just one month, you can get through.'

"Please," said a servant, breaking Ara's daydream.

Ara smiled, "Thank you," he told the waiter in a friendly manner.

"I know Ara, you haven't changed at all" said Johan who observed Ara's kindness.

"I will always be me. Isn't everyone like that? I hope that Johan will not change either" said Ara sincerely, he greatly admired the figure of Johan, but now it looks like his former fiancee is gradually starting to feel foreign to Ara.

"Nothing is certain in this world Ara, sometimes we need change to improve things to get better, and get what we want."

Ara did not chim in with Johan's words, she only focused on the food in front of her, she did not want to agree with Johan's words, but she also did not deny the truth about it.

"It." Johan placed a memory card in front of Ara, as soon as Ara finished her lunch.

"What's this?" ara curiously picked up a small black object on the table.

"Look, as soon as you're ready. You'll know what Hansel's true nature is." Johan said with confidence.

"What do you mean?" Ara again put the memory card on the table, "Listen Mas Johan, I know the relationship between us does not end well, but does it have to be like this? Can't we be friends and respect each other, I really, really respect and admire you, so don't take actions that will make that sense disappear from my eyes" Ara said seriously.

"I don't want to just be your friend, I want to take back what should be mine," Johan stubbornly maintained his stance.

Ara let out a long sigh, "Aren't you the one who chose to leave me then? Aren't you the one who didn't believe every word and explanation from me back then? So why did Mas Johan bring it up now?" now Ara was starting to lose her composure a little.

Johan clasped Ara's trembling hand, "I'm sorry, it was the worst mistake of my life. So accept this and see with your own eyes how all this can be so messed up by Hansel. After that you can decide for yourself," he continued.

Ara grasped the memory card firmly, what exactly was inside, why did Johan want her to see it so badly? What does this have to do with Hansel and their past?

Until the working hours are over, Ara is still not sure to see any contents of the memory card. Ara returned to her residence with a troubled mind. He did not even notice someone's cold gaze as he began to enter the house that was now his.

"Mom..."
