Richard smirked in satisfaction at the expression Rachel was showing at this moment. If the woman knew, she would have the same fate as Hanna later, she would definitely not be this calm next to Richard.
Yes, Richard purposely let Hanna off the streets. However, the condition of the woman is no longer the same as before. Rich had damaged Hanna mentally and psychologically until she went crazy. Not only does the bum steal food to keep her stomach in check, Hanna doesn't even remember who she is and the trauma Richard has put on her really makes Hanna mentally ill, who wandered the streets without a single person daring to help him.
Not without reason Richard did that. To him everything done right now was the best punishment for a scheming person like Hanna, compared to just killing him. Death is too easy to think of as karma, but suffering in the mortal world would certainly be the toughest torture for those who commit willful crimes.
“What do you want?”
Richard's question immediately distracted Rachel, he no longer looked at the shabby woman he was hunting and stepped into the lapak he wanted while occasionally shaking his head. “Cannot be. I must have seen it wrong,” said Rachel monologued, while occasionally still looking back.
“What's up?” rich asked, pretending he didn't understand.
“Ah, it's okay.” They ordered the food Rachel wanted. A bowl of bone soup cooked in the traditional way, exactly made by the mother first. He sipped his broth with a happy facial expression. Such was Rachel's figure, just by eating here, she would feel as if the mother was nearby.
His family was just a simple man. Full of love that has no limits. But everything changes at some point. Money changes everything. Change the father, take the mother, and give Rachel loneliness until now.
“Do you not like that much?” rachel asked when she saw Rich just stirring food in a bowl.
Rich shook his head, he tried to eat the food that was now in front of him. He is not a picky person when it comes to food. But what is now in front of him also reminds him of the past. The taste presented in the hot soup is able to arouse the taste of the connoisseurs, bringing them the warm love of a mother. Until without taste the soup in the bowl Richard was exhausted first in comparison Rachel.
“You are very hungry apparently,” Rachel quipped. The woman raised her hand to order again. “Grandmother, one more bowl of bone soup!” he shouted at the seller. “Let's just relax, there's still plenty if you want to eat more. Don't hesitate! The price here is not too expensive. Your salary won't run out if you use it to buy ten servings of soup."
Rich smiled, not knowing when was the last time he ate like this. It seems that he himself has forgotten if all this time he only eats when he remembers, while the rest, busy thinking about future plans that he will do, or thinking about the past that has passed.
"If you knew my purpose in approaching you now. You will run away from me at that time. But baby, it seems like it's too late, when you realize it," Richard looked inwardly at Rachel.
On the other hand, a man seemed to be partying with some clients in a VIP room of the restaurant. Using a special room, they chatted while drinking alcoholic beverages and some other foods. A naked woman fell silent right in their midst, her body made into a table of dishes, but they had no right to touch other than her food.
They seemed to be chatting so happily, being accompanied by several other beautiful women beside him. As if living in the days of Pharaoh surrounded by many wives, the people laughed as a man who forgot himself when he was on the clouds.
“Let's toast to celebrate your current position Mr Antonio!” said one of the clients who tried to apply for cooperation with Dday Holdings.
Antonio is the new interim CEO. In addition to working with the enemy, he also invited clients who had been struggling to propose cooperation, when Reymond led the company.
However, Antonio's policy this time was completely different. Enough to give him an injection of personal funds. Then he will easily approve the submission of cooperation of the clients.
“Thank you, Sir. Of course I would not be able to be in the current position if without the support of the powerful shareholders.”, said Antonio with a big laugh.
Some cardboard boxes with fruit juice drinks or other foods are now neatly arranged next to Antonio. However, the original contents of these items were not packaged food or drinks, but cash from clients who bribed according to the nominal stated by Antonio. Where the decision is taken in accordance with the magnitude of the project they will run later.
Although it looks detrimental, but the results they will get if they can work with Dday Holdings is also not a small nominal. That's why they are willing to pay up front.
Only, there is still one client who seems to sit quietly in a corner, without the intention of being happy as well as others. He is still weighing and cannot agree on what Antonio wants.
Unlike other clients who directly agree. His face was not radiant, in his heart a little angry with the man before him who was more cruel than the leech. Seen several times he drank alcohol, but did not touch the food at all, just glanced not.
“How about you, Mr Ben? Do you agree with my request?” Antonio seemed to be sitting so arrogantly. He wanted a fantastic amount of money from Ben to approve the man's proposal, knowing that Ben would go out of business without help from Dday Holdings.
Antonio deliberately asked for funds from them personally and in the form of cash. Not without reason, but so as not to be suspected by the company if there is transfer money into his account. To avoid this possibility, Antonio chose to keep it in cash only. Where the money will make him richer.
“I'll think about it again,” said Ben trying to reason.
“Everything else to think about, Mr Ben? Mr. Antonio will definitely accept our submission with open arms, and the board of directors will certainly also approve his decision. After all, the value of the project you submit is not small. What is wrong with spending a little capital first for the smooth running of our business. Right no, gentlemen,” said one of the other men who tried to persuade Ben.
Ben only nodded slightly, next to the corner of his lips raised upwards. He was used to the salt acid business problems, it is impossible to calculate profit and loss like this he did not know. It's just that, even though Ben was a crafty person, he wouldn't have gone too risky a path ahead of him.
Experience in the past, makes him more careful in acting. What else if the man they are now glorifying is a sly businessman. Everything was so clear from the way Antonio moved. Just one word worth pinning for him ‘Tamak’.
“The day is getting late. Excuse me first. Some days my health is not as usual. Doctors recommend getting some rest early. Please continue your dinner! I'm sorry.” Not wanting to be in the room too long, Ben chose to resign first, while the men who still remained seemed unhappy about his attitude.
“Cih, he is rich but too stingy,” said one man insulting Ben.
“Already, already, Sir. Maybe he just needs to think for a moment. I didn't force it anyway. We better enjoy our cooperation tonight,” said Antonio took a glass and raised it up, allowing other men to drink with him.
However, the glances of his eyes could not lie, in Antonio's heart was clearly looking forward to working with Ben. Because of that man, he will get the biggest injection of funds later.
