"Do you really want to take me to work?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"You sure?"
Aura still did not fully believe
hearing itself. Though clearly and in front of him himself Damaresh told Dirga that he would deliver Aura to the office.
"You are not sure of my answer" said Damaresh.
"It's not. If we come together with one car, it will be a question of people in the office, he said,
Aresh!" Aura tries to remind that maybe if Damaresh forgets the commitment at the beginning, that their marriage should not be known by anyone.
"That's what I've been thinking,"
Damaresh immediately sat down in the chair of his Istiqamah
this is every breakfast before going to the office.
"Does that mean you'll admit me in public?" asked Aura with a feeling of excitement that erupted visible from her beautiful smile that expanded and bright eyes that sparkled beautifully.
Damaresh still enjoyed the unusual beautiful scenery in front of him before answering Aura's question.
"Do you feel hurt by that?"
Erroneous. Damaresh did not answer Aura's question,
but he asked another.
"I still appreciate, whatever your decision is," said Aura softly.
"Ckk," Damaresh clucked briefly. "Don't make me feel full before breakfast, Arra!"
he said it was accompanied by a short line of arches rising at the corners of his lips.
"You mean?" it seems that Aura was thinking too late to understand the meaning of Damaresh's words, or even the girl was afraid of guessing wrong so it was better to just ask the owner of the word.
"Sit down! we have breakfast together!"
Damaresh pointed to the chair in front of him and immediately started his breakfast. Aura disconnected her intention to ask, she even immediately poured some drinking water for Damaresh in the man's glance which then concealed her sigh slowly.
This girl was so obedient, when in the original she was so opposed to me, whether the status of marriage made her change her attitude towards me.
The concept of marriage is like what it embraced, so I also seemed attached to it.
The question sentence is neatly arranged and only spoken in the maya of the mind of Damaresh.
It is only natural that in Damaresh asked that question, because throughout his understanding so far,
marriage is just a tool to legalize
control over other individuals. And so is the wedding portrait that is in the Willyam family circle.
******
Finally something that had often become an unspoken desire by Aura, now happened.
Go with your husband to work.
The girl unceasingly broke down a smile with gratitude in her heart. But the smile faded away when I realized that the road taken by the luxury car Damaresh was not the road that leads to the office Pramudya Corp.
"Where are we going, Aresh?"
"To L&D" said Damaresh.
"What are we doing to the Foundation?"
"There's interest, of course."
Aura nodded and got out of the car as it was parked in the courtyard of the magnificent L&D Foundation office building, at the behest of Damaresh.
The presence of CEO Pramudya Corp was greeted with great respect there, none of the people who worked at the foundation and passed by those who did not stop their steps and stood aside while giving a respectful nod to Damaresh who was walking in tandem with Aura. The two headed for the room of the foundation's chairman, Olivia, who seemed to have been waiting for their presence.
"How's it?" damaresh asked as soon as he had confronted Olivia.
"Yes, I have prepared everything, sir, according to your wishes" Olivia said.
It seems that there have been previous talks with Damaresh so that the chairman of the L&D Foundation no longer needs to ask questions.
"Can we see?"
"Oh of course, let's follow me!"
Olivia immediately walked out of her room into another room not so far from the previous room. The space that has an area of five times the meter looks clean and neat with a set of work tables in it, as well as some furniture that beautifies the look of the space. As well as two chairs that are limited to carved wooden tables with a position facing towards a wide glass window and featuring views of the artificial garden next to the building foundation.
Damaresh nodded his head hinting that he was satisfied with the room Olivia had prepared.
Damaresh then turned his head to look at Aura who was standing not far beside him. "What do you think of this room?"
"Very good."
"You like it?" asked Damaresh who made Aura look at the man for a moment. Of course Aura was thinking why Damaresh asked her whether she liked it or not, as if Aura was looking around the study room for her to have. But Aura nodded as well because Damaresh did not divert his attention from Aura because he wanted to get an answer from the girl.
"This is your work space, Arra!"
"What does that mean?"
"Yes. From today you will work here in this room!"
"Does that mean you fired me Aresh?" asked Aura with a worried look.
Damaresh turned his head to look at Olivia.
The woman of about forty years old nodded and rushed out from there by shutting her door shut.
Aura did not take her eyes off the beautiful face of Damaresh, hoping for an explanation of what the man had told her.
"From today on, you're no longer working as Arra's personal assistant, but you're back here."
Damaresh makes clear the meaning of his words.
"Is there something wrong with my way of working all this time, so you fired me?"
"No. You're working really well, Arra."
"Then why?"
"I think working here is more appropriate for you, to hone all the potential that is in you," said Damaresh.
"You always make your own decisions Aresh" Aura protested loudly.
"When I wanted to stay here, you recruited me by force to work for you.
And now that I love my job, I love working near you not only as an ordinary personal assistant but also as a wife who eases her husband's work, you kicked me out of the way to come back here, you always make decisions about me without telling me before." Aura filed her protest with soaring emotions that even now her pair of eyes looked teary.
"So insignificant is my opinion to you Aresh?" asked Aura with a trembling voice.
"Don't misunderstand Arra!"
Damaresh looked at the girl.
"Is this your way of driving me out of your life?,
what does it mean from now on that I have nothing to do with you anymore?!"
And Aura's cry broke out along with the last question sentence she asked.
Damaresh approached to erode the distance between the two, he then grabbed Aura's body into his arms, without waiting for a long time Aura was drowned in a strong cry in the arms of Damaresh until his shoulder was shaken because it held sobs.
There was no word of any kind that Damaresh said, except to gently rub the head of Aura in a regular rhythm
until then it was felt that Aura had started to calm down in her cries.
"It's not what you thought, Arra!" said Damaresh who sounded very clear in Aura's hearing. "I didn't mean to throw you out of my life" he said again.
"The color I want to protect you."
"Protect me from what?"
"From what you don't understand yet,"
"Explain me! let me understand," urged Aura
"I can't yet" refused Damaresh.
"You must be lying to me, right, Aresh?"
"No" said Damaresh quickly, resolutely and with a proper look.
"I'm not lying to you."
Damaresh is not lying, everything he is doing right now is a form of protection for Aura.
"Work here well! you already know all the work procedures, right?" Damaresh grabbed Aura's hand and grasped it gently.
The beautiful girl lowered her head while sighing,
he knew that if Damaresh had made a decision no one could resist. He is the type of man who has a high charisma of leadership, where every decision is a word that must happen.
"Later in the afternoon someone will pick you up here, not Dirga."
Aura shook her head, she was not yet willing to respond to that remark.
It felt as if Damaresh rubbed his head
and kissed her forehead gently before the man turned his heels and walked out of the room in a hurry.
"Can we talk for a second?"
Damaresh looked at Olivia who was waiting for him in front of the room.
"Okay sir, let's go to my room!" Olivia let her with her hand. And now they're sitting face to face in Olivia's office.
"What do you really need right now, Olivia?"
ask Damaresh who made Olivia frown a little.
"I-I mean Mr Damaresh?"
"Near-impossible urgent need for you to fulfill,"
Olivia sighed in astonishment, Where did Mr. Damaresh know that I needed something right now. His inner.
But soon he ignored everything for the sake of seeing Damaresh's gaze so sharply directed at him.
"Yes, there's Sir. My son is having a pretty big problem which makes him likely to be expelled from his college in LA. To save him I had to do something,"
Olivia breathed heavily again.
"Something that requires huge funds, sir," continued Olivia.
"How much?" ask Damaresh briefly.
"90,000 us dollars."
Olivia's voice sounded heavy when mentioning the amount of money that if rupiah is equivalent to 1,289,083,500.00.
What a fantastic jumblah in the size of Olivia's pocket.
But for a Damaresh Willyam, it may be a casual jumblah, visible from the look of his face that does not show any change at all.
"How long do you have to get that money?" tanya flat.
"In the next three days," Olivia replied in a choked voice, regarding this she was already on the verge of despair, after all the efforts she had done had not been fruitful. Olivia has arrived at the point of resignation even if she does not succeed in saving her son.
"What's your account number?"
"For what, sir?"
"You need the money, right?"
"Will you give it to me?"
Olivia almost rounded her eyes when she found Damaresh nodding her question.
Like a thirsty man in the middle of an arid desert, there are people coming to offer a gallon of drinks, olivia flushed closer and grabbed the drink without having to think anymore.
That is, when he immediately mentioned a series of numbers that are his account numbers which were recorded by Damaresh in his smart phone.
For a while the man was busy fiddling with his smartfon in front of Olivia. "You can check your account in five minutes!"
his word to Olivia then made the woman display a wide smile with a gaze full of excitement and pleasure, he said, in fact, Olivia could hardly resist getting up and hugging Damaresh while saying a million thanks.
But there was one thing that came to light in maya he thought then, which immediately made his smile fade, that it could not be that easy as a Damaresh Willyam helped him without the reciprocity that he had to give.
"What should I do to avenge all this, sir?"
"Smart question, Olivia," welcome Damaresh because he will not give his help for free.
Olivia swallows her saliva with it.
"Jaga Aura with your authority here! keep him out of reach of all the members of the Willyam family, including Mr. Willlyam Pramudya himself!"
damaresh's orders made several folds visible on Olivia's forehead. Not without the intention of asking for it, Olivia is the second stakeholder in L&D after Cristhine.
He was also a frequent pawn for Crishtine and Claudya. It is important to pull her under Damaresh's control to protect Aura, since Olivia must know enough about how Cristhine and Claudya work. And as a pawn, although he can't eat his queen, but he can eat other parts that are in one part diagonally from his position.
"You have no way to go back, now the money is in your account" said Damaresh quickly to see Olivia's expression of indecision.
Olivia sighed softly, it was no longer a matter of who Aura was to Damaresh until the man treated her as special as Olivia had in mind now. But it was Damaresh's request that he secretly fight the Willyam family, which was very burdensome. For more than ten years working for the Willyam family made Olivia quite know how the Willyam family if it had been eyeing something and if it did not want something.
Fighting Willyam's family means digging his own grave. But can the woman refuse Damaresh's request when the man has already strangled her with something she desperately needs.
"Well sir, I will take care of Aura as you wish,"
finally breaking up Olivia.
"Good, I love this partnership." Damaresh pulled the corner of his lips faintly. All of his actions had been calculated, and the corresponding results were what he now got. "Remember Olivia, if anything happens to Aura while she works here, you're the first person I'll hold her accountable."
Firmly Damaresh later.
"Good, Sir. I understand." Olivia nodded for sure.
The fact that happened here is, that Demi to protect Aura, Damaresh willingly poured money with a big jumblah.
After getting the appropriate results, Damaresh immediately left the office of the L&D foundation with Olivia between the office building and out of the office building.
Damaresh was standing next to his car to call Stefan.
"Good morning, sir."
Stefan answered his call quickly.
"What about your people?"
ask Damaresh directly.
"They've arrived at L&D half an hour before you."
"Have you told them how it works?"
"It's clear, sir."
"good. Thank you Stefan."
Asking Stefan's people to look after Aura was also the way that Damaresh did to protect Aura. Yes, everything is a form of protection from him for Aura Aneshka.
Damaresh closed his phone and rushed into his car, in an instant the iron horse wheel had already rolled away from the foundation, leaving behind a slow breath of Aura who saw everything from behind the window of his study on the third floor.
