Not as Red as Dusk
kado
The sound of the door closing violently shocked Tomi. He was busy with his laptop. When Nick slammed the door all of a sudden.
Goddamnit! why did the boss slam the door. Is there a storm outside?
Nick went straight to the room. Take out a small red box from his pocket. The ring that was to be given to Esta. But it seems he will never give it again. Yep. Nick has lost. Even now Rico has proposed to Esta. Does he know?
Tomi: are you okay, boss?
Nick, what do you see?
Tomi: not good
Nick: you know
He threw the red box on the nightstand. Then walk to the bathroom. Hope the cold shower can ease her anger.
That box!
Did the boss intend to give it to Esta?
aah.bos you're really in love with her!

The stressful days. Tomi is facing execution. His heart must be ready whenever Nick explodes.
Nick has been quieter lately. Talk as necessary. He rarely even looked for the girl.
That's best boss you have to forget about it
aren't there a lot of girls out there lining up to be your lover?
Nick came out of the room. He's well dressed. Is there an appointment today?
Tomi: where are we boss?
Nick: come with me
Without asking much more. Tomi follows behind Nick. He obeyed his orders when he had to drive on the streets.
Isn't this the way to town A? what business is it?
Nick orders Tomi to park her car in a government office. You dian came down and rushed as if you had made an appointment with someone.
Mr. Pradipta smiled widely when he saw the arrival of Nick and Hat. The three are familiar. Then Mr. Pradipta invited his guests to sit down.
Pradipta: what wind brought you here?
Nick: just stop by
Pradipta: an honor to me
Nick: about the company
Pradipta sighed as soon as Nick started talking about the company. The effort he started from zero and now must be willing to change hands.
Pradipta: what do you want?
Nick: 75% of your company's shares have moved in my name
Pradipta: I know I will take care of the handover as soon as possible
Nick smiled. There was a disappointed murat on Mr. Pradipta's face. Can't cover it anymore.
Nick: I'm sorry
Pradipta: not your fault. all this time the company was not managed properly. My son is not competent like Mr. Nick
Nick: you're too complimentary
Mr. Pradipta escorted Nick and Tomi to the front hall. Even though he forced a smile. But it looks so bitter.
Nick: I'll invite you to my hotel if you don't mind
Pradipta: with pleasure, I will take my time
Nick: this weekend, I'm looking forward to your day with your family
Why is the boss still being nice to him? wasn't he the girl's father who had attacked her? even allowing his half-brother to act indecently
you are too generous sir
Nick: talk about what you want to ask
Tomi: about your invitation? isn't that a little overrated
Nick, I want to see their faces when I see Esta
Nick: it's still the atmosphere of the girl's birthday. I'll give her a little gift

Nick was standing at Esta's doorstep. Open the door and let her in. While he called Esta.
Esta: Nick. What brings you here?
Nick, I'd like to invite you to dinner today
Esta: now? all of a sudden
Nick: sorry for just getting to know you
Having assented. Esta rushed to prepare. Self-stabilizing.
Is this an official dinner? didn't he say that some of his colleagues were coming?
then why bring me? doesn't she have a lot of more attractive girls?
Cih.what I think
Esta looks stunning. The sleeveless black dress made her look much more mature. A little low chest cut does make it quite uncomfortable, even it was realized Nick. Making her smile to see Esta who was wrong because she kept looking at him.
As if unsatisfied. Nick's eyes won't be off Esta.
Did she dress up this pretty when she went out with Rico? Aaah
The car stopped in the hotel lobby. Tomi was standing there waiting for Nick and Esta to arrive. Even Tomipun did not escape the charm of Esta.
Is this the same girl?
Is there anything strange about my appearance Tom?
Tomi stutters. As fast as lightning averted his gaze.
Tomi: I thought you were someone else
Esta: really? am I prettier when I dress like this?
Hmh! why did he change not knowing himself like this?
like two different people
Esta: is my acting good?
Acting? so then?
Esta: I can't possibly behave as usual. let alone have a guest Nick.I really want to humiliate him
Tomi: you're great
Thin smile decorate Esta's face. The three then walked towards the money room Tomi had prepared for dinner.

Door opens. Some guests were waiting. They stood up when they saw Nick coming.
Waitaminute! isn't that dad?
Nick: good night, sorry to keep you waiting
Mr. Pradipta was really surprised. Look at the woman who walked behind Nick. The face was well known. Although wrapped in a dress but she could not be mistaken to recognize her little daughter.
Pre-dip: Esta? Mr Nick?
Nick smiled.
Nick: I'll explain later. Let's enjoy dinner tonight first
Even Sinta throughout the banquet did not release her gaze from Esta. What does this have to do with Mr Nick? Does it have anything to do with Kai's disappearance?
Nick: I want to introduce Miss Esta, who must have known the master and mistress
Esta looked hard at Nick. What does all this mean? He did not even mention the presence of his parents.
Nick: I am the new owner of Pradipta Company. with 75% share ownership. I would like to inform you that I will hand over 50% of the shares to Miss Esta
