Neighbor Becomes Husband

65 Eps. Defeated by Internship

Kharis is fresh with his new hairdo. Since he was busy writing the thesis his hair is not cut until the length has reached the back. He was not used to pigtails, so it was more practical to cut short again, this time shorter than usual.

In the elevator area Kharis met Gerald who was waiting for his boss. Kharis threw a smile and stood in front of the elevator next to Gerald. Gerald narrowed his eyes observing Kharis.

"Mbak Kharis haircut huh?"

"Yes Ger.. sultry because it's an extension..."

"Beautiful more..."

Gerald was ashamed of himself giving praise to his boss' lover. Kharis smiled in response.

"Who is beautiful...?"

Boss standing next to Kharis. Gerald immediately pressed the elevator button.

"For the boss.the beautiful boss's girlfriend is the boss."

"Where's my boyfriend...?"

Kharis laughed at his lover who pretended not to see him. Fortunately, the elevator had moved up and no other employees had come with their elevator if Kharis happened to come along with them.

"For the boss... "

"Morning, dear.you are beautiful with short hair... "

Boss sir's hand rubbed briefly the head of the girl beside him.

"Usually wear glasses?"

"Hehehe's a regular lens. Yesterday my nose hurt so I don't wear it anymore."

"Oh. 'cause your eyes have a minus."

"Lingling's job, he said let me not look like a high school boy."

"Now you're like an elementary school kid..."

"Ishhh..."

"Hahaha. joking, dear..."

The elevator doors opened, Levi Andrean scooped up her daughter's fingers and pulled her girl slowly towards her room.

"Sir boss..."

Kharis tried to let go of the boss's big hand.

"Ger don't come in yet..."

"Every boss..."

Gerald understood the new habit of the boss every time he arrived at the office, he would bring Kharis in a few minutes in his room. The boss who finally willing Kharis to be the second secretary of Vero's mother.

"No habit of it..."

"Have a look at our morning ritual.I need this hug before I get busy all day. Mami now controls you, so I can only do this before she comes."

Levi hugged his girl and kissed her head gently.

"Udah yes..."

"Kiss first.. I usually kiss, it's your turn..."

Without protest Kharis gave a kiss so that the morning drama in the room would end soon. Levi laughed as there was no protest from his girl.

"Work spirit, boss..."

Kharis smile then closed the door and rushed towards his cubicle which now changed position in front of the Main Director's room. He is ready to start today. There was still some time left he would complete the apprenticeship, and he wanted to finish well.

...

Giselle slammed her body on the couch in the Director of Operations' office, her father said. Mr. Ridwan raised his face to pay attention to his sour-faced daughter.

"What's up, son..."

"Andre has a girlfriend, pah.. again so the trending topic here, said they intern."

"In an apprentice here?"

"Yes, but I checked earlier, there are no apprentices with the characteristics they are gossiping about."

"Why believe gossip?"

"Usually a reward, it is impossible for gossip to come alone. Many saw the two of them walking side by side in the lobby."

"Then people haven't seen it for themselves, why annoyed?"

"Andre's hard to get whipped too, pah..."

"Don't you two always walk this whole time?"

"Huhhh, he sucks, no sweetness, never want to give his personal number, who always pick up the phone is his assistant. After the anniversary show don't want to see you again."

"Talking to Vero's mom, she's the one who set you up with Andre. Anticipation, maybe there's a point to that rumor ..."

Upon hearing his papa's advice the girl quickly came out of his papa's room again. Mr. Ridwan continues his work.

While Friska was silent next to the desk, Mr. Ridwan was astonished by the facts he heard... Giselle's been betrothed to Andre? Then what did Vero mean to her yesterday? Friska herself had given up on Levi Andrean, the daughter of her own boss was more attractive and interested in him. Now Henry is on fire. Henry was also royal often sent gifts, so what was in plain sight...

"How far is the truth of the rumor?"

"Friska...??"

"I'm sorry sir... What's wrong?"

"I asked a rumor about Andre?"

"Oh.. that's..anter sih issue it, there's a photo circulating in the group chat, sir."

"Eh.... what...? That's not betrothal sir, rather allow me to approach his son."

"Rubber. Giselle was like that too. Ms. Vero is not interested in matching her son with anyone including the son of a businessman. But I know the criteria his daughter-in-law is looking for, like her. I'm pretty surprised he's interested in Giselle."

"Mr Giselle is beautiful sir..."

"That's not Vero's main criteria, I know him. Oh yeah. It's done. Any other work?"

"There sir. This please mr. review the report from the field..."

...

"Tante Vero is there, right?"

"There's Miss Giselle, but there's still a guest, please wait."

Vienna answered kindly as both hands pointed towards the sofa. Vienna has memorized the character of this girl who was immediately angry when asked about the appointment. He always showed that he was important in the eyes of the President Director, being able to enter at any time without permission.

Giselle doesn't like to be ruled. He stared dislikefully at Vienna, instead moving towards the door.

"I'm sorry, Miss Giselle, this is an important client, it's not good if Giselle's mom comes in to interrupt."

Giselle glared furiously and continued on. But Vienna was understood and ready to anticipate, Giselle's right arm was immediately arrested.

"Don't be stubborn... Your rash attitude can hurt the company. Please wait."

Giselle flicked her arm with emotion. At the same time the door opened and Kharis came out from the inside with his hands holding a pile of files.

"She...why is she allowed in.. She's an intern why is she here?"

"She's one of the mother's staff, we can go in if needed..."

Vienna replied riled up, what is in this girl's brain? With a high enough tenure of not understanding simple things like this?

Giselle looked at Kharis with her fierce face. Kharis lowered his head in a sign of respect and immediately moved away, the trauma of being pushed until the fall was still there. He doesn't want any trouble. Pretending to be busy yourself does not want to interact with this arrogant girl.

"The apprentice is downstairs, why is he here?"

"He's quite capable and his skills are needed by Bu Vero. His work ethic is high, not just a show off here. Giselle's mom has no interest in that."

Vienna said politely, but her eyes were sharp towards Giselle. No need to talk to this girl.

Feeling unable to fight Vienna, Giselle finally headed for the sofa in the middle of this room, sitting down in annoyance.

Kharis breathed a sigh of relief as Giselle moved away. One thing comes to pass, what if Giselle finds out about her relationship with Levi. Several times she saw Giselle forcing her way into Levi's room, intercepting Levi in the lobby or in the front corridor of the meeting room. Levi can sometimes be evasive subtly, never be rude. But this girl seemed to have no shame in staying persistent to approach Levi, with various ways and reasons, apparently her creativity appeared when her business concerned only Levi Andrean.

Finally the important guest of the President Director's mother came out of the room. And without waiting for the signal can enter Giselle just go in. Vienna can only follow with an eye, a little wonder also the President Director who firmly softened if with Giselle. Is it because Mr Ridwan is Vero's best friend??

In the most luxurious room in the building...

"Aunt Vero..."

"Giselle.. sit..."

"Tante has not had time to thank you personally, yesterday's event was very good and slick, different from the previous year... Thanks for working hard."

"I'm glad aunty liked the show. Andre also had a big contribution at the event."

"Oh yeah... It's just a aunt's award..."

"Well, thank you aunt..."

The face of the girl immediately sumringah his materialistic soul immediately visible all over his face, impatiently immediately grabbed a medium paper bag with a famous brand logo. The concern is getting soaring, if later if he becomes a daughter-in-law there is certainly more he can get.

"Giselle, good aunt is busy."

"Aunty.. I still can't get close to Andre, auntie help me yes..."

Veronica Magdalenne, looking straight into Giselle's eyes with tears in her face. The girl in front of him had to be stopped, her behavior had become a nuisance not only for Andre but also himself, what the heck he asked the President Director with such a dime business, in the office at rush hour???

"Giselle. Aunty has given an opportunity to bring you closer when preparing for your birthday. But aunt asked Giselle to stop here. If Andre wants your relationship to continue, it's not. Focus on working now. Okay. call Vienna.

"But aunt..."

"Don't force something, not good. Go away..."

Giselle doesn't trust Aunt Vero who she thinks will help her and tells her to stop. He's emotional but he has to control himself must not be angry in front of Aunt Vero, the only way is to cry alone. The time he has to let go of Andre cannot, he has to have Andre. He started crying in a loud voice...

"Giselle doesn't want aunty, please Giselle, Andre must be Giselle's husband, aunt has promised.hihkssss hikksss..."

"Tante never promised, and couldn't help, stop crying and get out."

""Hikkss... Giselle beg aunt..."

"Giselle...!!"

The President Director did not fall for pity or soften, but instead became angry. He doesn't like whiny and spoiled people. He is rarely moved by someone's tears. He's medial on the phone at his desk...

"Take Giselle out of my room and set up a meeting."

Vero's mother no longer cared about Giselle's attitude - she looked back at the file on her desk. Shortly Vienna and Carla enter, directly approaching Giselle. Half forced them to bring Giselle who was still crying.

Outside the room Giselle stopped crying and violently threw the hands of the two mighty ladies aide bu the President Director who was holding her arm. And with a mouth full of swearing left the room. He was determined to find out who the apprentice Levi Andrean liked, when he was defeated by the apprentice?

"What's the matter, Miss Vienna?"

Kharis could not help his curiosity.

"No idea.I better take care of our work. Let's get ready, in a moment mom's out, client Bu Vero is waiting in the meeting room."
