"You're seriously going to Itally?" ask Briant who just walked into Andrew's office without knocking on him.
Andrew turned his face, turned from the laptop in front of him and looked at Briant.
"Yes" she answered briefly.
"You sure you're gonna do business with him?"
briant asked again with a face of disbelief.
"The offer was pretty good. I just have to check the quality of their wine" said Andrew, leaning his back against the back of the chair and hooking the hands together on the chest.
"Come on, bro, I'm not sure about him. Why did he have to show up again after..."
Briant hung up her sentence while staring intently at Andrew.
"I see what you mean. But he is a memory of the past more than fifteen years ago and I have buried" Andrew said calmly.
"Sometimes those memories can wake up and haunt us" Briant said, staring intently at Andrew.
"Like you and Grisella?" asked Andrew with a chuckle.
"It could be just like me and Grisella. Don't underestimate the past, bro. I'm finally back in my past embrace" Briant chimed in with a smile.
"That's because there's a void in your heart. After all your past isn't that dark."
"It's precisely because your past is so dark, why you have to make peace with it," Briant said riled up because he did not understand Andrew's way of thinking.
"I just purely want to help her. Although she was once something dark in my life, but thanks to Diana, I learned to forgive and make peace with the past" Andrew remarked.
"God..." Briant let out a long sigh, there was worry in every tone of speech as well as uneasiness in the look on his face.
"May it be as you say, I hope in your heart there is no curiosity, " said Briant by emphasizing the word curious.
"Curious?"
"Yes, the reason he left you." Briant.
"You're wrong, that question has gone away as time goes by, I no longer care about the reason" Andrew said steadily.
"Be careful, Bro, don't hurt my sister-in-law, if you don't." Briant hung up the sentence.
"It wouldn't have happened, otherwise you could have done what we agreed to do" Andrew said.
The two handsome and dashing men then fell silent. They enter each other's minds. Andrew's departure seems to make Briant fret.

FLASHBACKS
Three days ago.
"Mr Andrew has a guest asking to meet you." one afternoon, Patricia came in and told Andrew someone was waiting.
"Is there an appointment?" ask Andrew while keeping a tight eye on the files on his desk.
"Not yet sir, but the madam is urging to meet. And he said if you'd like to see him."
"There's no promise? Have him make an appointment first and put it on my schedule" Andrew said firmly.
"Tell me, what his purpose is coming,"
"He offers cooperation for red wine products, in order to be included in the label fantasy cruise line." Patricia explains the intention of the arrival of the guests who are forced to meet.
"Just put it on the marketing manager waiting list, many are not wine entrepreneurs who want to work together," said Andrew casually.
Andrew did not like to receive guests who came without being scheduled in advance.
She doesn't like surprises and doesn't like the type of guests that force her to meet.
They have their own interests and interests. But likewise for him, every thing he works is certainly urgent.
Patricia nodded her head in understanding. The nearly fifty-year-old secretary still looked beautiful and attractive. He's been with Andrew for over ten years.
Just thirty seconds later, Patricia came out, the door to Andrew's study was opened a little hard and a beautiful woman came in.
"Andrew... Do you really not want to see me?"
"Sorry sir, this lady forced her way in." said Patricia who was behind the woman.
Andrew raised his face and looked at the woman before him who forced his way in in in surprise. He removed his reading glasses and signaled Patricia to come out.
"I'm sure you'll see me, won't you?" the woman said as she walked gracefully and leisurely and then sat down before Andrew gracefully while crossing her legs
Andrew looked at the woman in front of him. He was surprised by the arrival of the woman. Andrew stared at her as if unsure of what she saw was real.
"How are you?" said the beautiful woman before him who smiled very sweetly.
Andrew tried to resolve his shock. He began to be able to manage the tension he felt. The man then rested his back on the back of the chair before answering the woman's question.
"I'm doing fine. How's yours?" Standard answers and questions at each meeting.
"I'm fine, you see I'm fine, don't you?" said the beautiful woman by moving her hands pointing towards her body.
"I heard Rachel is dead, I'm so sorry" he said, showing a sad face.
"Stop your pleasantries, what do you need to do here" Andrew said flatly.
"I just want to meet you. You know I miss you" said the woman softly.
Andrew smiled cynically.
"Nearly ten years you disappeared without news, now you come to say longing" said Andrew sharply.
"It was my fault for leaving without giving you any news" he said again in a regretful tone of voice and face.
"It's over, it's not something to remember" replied Andrew lightly.
Andrew took his eyes off the face of the beautiful, graceful woman before him. He moved away from his chair and came to the wide glass window.
His gaze stared at the traffic crowd of Miami. The sky was clear, the clouds were moving away from the sun. Let the king of heaven reign mighty.
"But I always remember you, Andrew," the woman's voice seemed to sigh in a deep tone.
"Not for a second in my life, I forgot about you. Never," the woman got out of her chair and walked over to Andrew.
The woman's hand then wrapped around Andrew's waist and hugged the man from behind tightly. Andrew was shocked by what the woman was doing. He did not expect to get such a surprise attack.
"What are you doing, let go!" Andrew shouted as he grabbed the woman's hand and tried to let go of her embrace.
Andrew did not like what the woman was doing. In his mind he was worried that if only someone suddenly entered and saw their position, then there would be a misunderstanding. Worse still if Diana suddenly came, even though his wife always gave the news before coming.
"Please, let me hold you for a moment. I beg you.." he said with a hearty, tightening his embrace.
The woman rested her head on Andrew's fielded back. His hands clung tightly to Andrew's chest and tightly gripped the suit he was wearing. He closed his eyes, feeling every warmth from Andrew's body while searching for Andrew's heart.
Maybe he's looking for a feeling left behind through Andrew's heartbeat. But when he felt the thumping was different from the past, it was then that he realized that he had been buried in the memories of the past.
Andrew fell silent and stretched his hand. Indeed, he did not know what to do when faced with the woman who had suddenly appeared before him. The woman who once filled his heart.
Fifteen years ago the woman was Andrew's first love. With him Andrew felt very happy, after a sense of tightness when his mother died of cancer. Lonely Andrew, as a result of his father's acting up since the wife's departure, never paid any heed to himself.
Shortly thereafter both his grandparents and grandmother also died adding to Andrew's sense of loneliness. He spent his teenage years with solitude as well as a sense of tightness, and he immersed himself in learning harder than the other kids. His goal was for Arthur Knight to be proud of him and turn more attentive to him.
But all was not in line with expectations. Arthur, who saw Andrew's extraordinary achievements, considered his son independent and did not need anyone. A proud child. And Arthur Knight again drowned himself from his grief with women and work. Without a single hugging Andrew.
When he was nineteen years old, when he had just entered the third semester in a well-known business community, Andrew began to be close to a younger brother of his class. A beautiful and graceful woman, who always smiled and paid attention to Andrew.
Their togetherness gave rise to the inevitable twinkle of love. Andrew had been in love for three years. Their deep love, until the promise of marriage.
But, just after six months Andrew became Ceo's representative on the Fantasy Cruise Line, there was chaos in his father's business that resulted in bankruptcy.
It was then that Andrew desperately needed more support, but his first love disappeared!
Andrew was so fucked up. The first woman he fell in love with, the first woman he kissed, the first woman to fill the void, and the first woman he was about to marry, disappeared without a trace.
Andrew's emptiness grew when Arthur Knight forced him to marry Rachel. Forced marriage to restore the business empire and the fate of tens of thousands of employees, he had to live. Wedding Business.
How much she tried to like Rachel, but she couldn't. Her heart hardened even more when she realized how Rachel was using herself.
Right after her four-year marriage to Rachel, the woman.
The woman came back and offered love. The woman calls back the love of the past and promises to heal every wound she gives Andrew.
They again promise to be in touch and love each other, he promises to wait for Andrew's divorce process with Rachel. He is loyal and will never be faithful again. But in reality, a month later the woman disappeared again without a trace.
It frustrated Andrew even more. Drown yourself in work and women, just like Arthur Knigt used to. It may be true what the saying goes, the fruit will not fall far from the tree.
Just when Conrad came a year after the woman left, Andrew felt a little calmer. The boy's presence begins to change Andrew a little, though he still has a very deep empty cavity and is newly fertilized full of the presence of Diana and Aaron.
Now, the woman appeared suddenly in front of him. It evokes the memories of the past that he has buried deeply.
The woman called again a number of questions she never knew the answer to.
"Let go of your embrace. That's enough the last time you did this to me. I'm married again and I love my wife so much" Andrew said, letting go of her in his suit.
"Ah yes, I already knew it too," she said, letting go of her embrace and moving away from Andrew.
Andrew shook off his slightly furrowed suit as a result of the woman's grip. Her forehead was slightly wrinkled, worried that Diana would misunderstand.
"It's good you know. Now you can go." Andrew said coldly.
The woman walked towards the sofa that was available in Andrew's study. While glancing towards the room room inside the office, a place that Andrew sometimes used to rest.
"Did you use that room a lot to fuck your new wife?" tanyakanya.
Andrew scrunched his forehead with an annoyed look.
"It's none of your business."
"Ah, I miss this place so much." the woman walked towards the room room inside Andrew's office, opened the door and then laid down her body sensually.
"This room is still as warm as when we used to combine love. Up to hours," he said while wiping the mattress and biting his lips.
Andrew remained silent inside the office and made no attempt to follow the woman. He ignored the woman's actions. Andrew chose to sit back on his throne and hold the work file.
"Hurry up before I call my bodyguard" Andrew said coldly and flatly.
The woman looked surprised to hear Andrew's cold words. He lifted his body and sat on the edge of the mattress for a moment while tidying up his hair.
He could feel the cold aura that Andrew was exuding. However, he did not want to admit that fact. She can't believe Andrew's love for her is starting to disappear.
He walked up to Andrew and sat down in front of him. Their distance was separated by Andrew's spacious workbench. He looked at Andrew who did not care about him.
"You've been in this place too long. You better go now."
Andrew then pressed the phone channel no 101 in front of him which was answered by Patricia.
"Yes sir?"
"Take this woman out from before me" Andrew said flatly.
The woman was surprised by Andrew's reaction, she did not expect that Andrew would actually throw her away.
Patricia came in with two bodyguards, then walked over to the woman.
"Wait!" he shouted while giving the code with his hand so that Patricia and her bodyguards stopped.
"Andrew, you need to listen to me. I came to see you purely on business. Really because of business. No other meaning. I swear." he said quickly in panic as the bodyguard walked back to him.
