The day changed, Naiki had arrived at Brata Corp early in the morning. As the day before, Darel escorted Ride on his motorcycle. Climb up and hurry to the marketing team workspace.
Today is a quarterly meeting day. Where each department sends two representatives, except the marketing department which will usually send up to ten people to attend meetings.
Naiki, Sisi, and Justin were included in the company meeting this time. With the intention that new employees are faster to learn new things that they will meet in meetings.
As with previous meetings, quarterly meetings are always attended by all Managers. However, due to the slightly shaky company conditions, this meeting will be attended directly by Brata Corp's Managing Director, Brata.
Hearing that, of course Naiki was more and more eager to attend. He rushed to prepare the necessary equipment during the meeting. A notebook, a pen, and a laptop of course. Not to forget he also set up another mini recorder in his pocket. Naiki plans to record the entire Brata Corp meeting today.
"Are you ready, Sisi?" Tanya Ride fifteen minutes before the meeting starts. Sisi nodded.
They then rushed to the meeting room located two floors higher than the Marketing Department. The meeting room was already full. Just waiting for the arrival of the Manager and President Director of the company. Climb in and Sisi is already sitting in his chair, putting things down, and turning on their laptop.
Naiki did not expect, he attended a face-to-face meeting like this, but not as a leader, but as an ordinary employee who was in training.
"Should I be flashy today?" Inner Naiki with a grin on her face.
Fifteen minutes had passed, the footsteps of several people came from the front hall of the meeting room. Suddenly the whole room became quiet. The Managers entered the room, followed by Steffanie as Finance Director and Brata as President Director of Brata Corp.
Naiki's gaze suddenly changed as Steffanie and Brata entered the room. There were hateful eyes in Naiki's clear eyes. His hands clenched tightly. Want it feels like Naiki beat up to death the two bad guys ahead there.
His logic and feelings seemed to be raging within him. If she were just like women in general, perhaps Naiki would have followed her current feelings and emotions more than her logic.
"Ne." Sides on the Side. Naiki did not reply.
Sisi knows, Naiki almost lost control because he saw two figures that he hated so much in his life. Two people who desperately wanted Naik to annihilate and destroy with his own hands.
After living with his grandparents, Naiki and Rhean's life is indeed much better. They even had regular consultation sessions with psychiatrists and child psychologists at the time. However, the wounds Brata and Steffanie had inflicted were already too deep in Naiki and Rhean's hearts. They even have to live with mental disorders that have almost damaged their quality of life so far. Forgive their actions, and forget them? No, it was impossible for Naiki.
"Ne." Sisi's back.
Degs...
Naiki finally woke up. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and exhaled.
"I'm fine, Sisi." Said later.
Sisi then thrust a bottle of mineral water at Naiki. "Drink!"
Naiki also drank mineral water provided by Sisi. His condition was already quite calm at this moment.
Brata Corp's quarterly meetings begin. Start with the elaboration of job evaluations and work plans for the next month from various divisions. Brata Corp is a company engaged in the field of Book Publishing, both fiction and non-fiction, and also science books.
Alya loves to read. So he opened this publishing company. He hopes that more and more people will like reading, and more and more disadvantaged children will be able to have books. That is why Alya also opened the Foundation and Orphanage at that time, a container for Alya to distribute aid, especially books to disadvantaged children.
However, as technology and the internet developed, public interest in physical books was diminishing. Brata Corp is also dizzy and trying to develop digital products. However, due to the lack of resources and the difficulty of marketing products, the existence of Brata Corp is increasingly shaky. That's why Brata always targets large companies such as Gerandra and Caraka to invest in his company.
It is time for the final division of the presentation, marketing. This time forward conveying the work evaluation and work plan of the Marketing Team are Senior Salesmen. They conveyed their constraints in the last three months and their work plans going forward. All were delivered straightforwardly by the Salesman and without any interference from his Manager, Niko.
Climb on and watch the meeting that feels very boring for him. It's been two hours, and there's no sign the meeting is coming to an end.
Drr....
Suddenly Naiki's phone vibrated. One message came into his phone. Climb a glance towards the phone he put next to the laptop. Seeing that the message turned out to be from Darel, Naiki quickly opened it.
Naiki's eyes were round looking at the contents of Darel's message. Her cold husband apparently sent her picture in the Cake Shop with a basket of sandwiches in his hand.
[I know you really like toast. But isn't ripped bread also very tempting?]
Naiki really wanted to laugh reading a message from Darel. "God...how can I marry a man like this? His personality is very strange." Inner Naiki while continuing to hold back laughter.
"But how did he know that I liked toast?" Murmured Naiki then. He then replied to Darel's message.
Unknowingly, Naiki actually typed in the same message as her mind.
Drrtt.... One message came back from Darel.
[I even know that you like me.]
Naiki sneered reading a message from Darel. He put his phone back. "Did I really like it?" Naiki thought then shook her head.
"Are you okay, Nai?" Ask Sisi. He was surprised to see Naiki's behavior suddenly shook his head. He just stared at his cell phone.
"Eh, yes. Yeah, I'm fine, Sisi." Naiki Sahut.
Then they refocused on the meeting. Now comes the time for Brata as the President Director to speak. Climb straightened his body, looked intently at Brata and listened carefully to all of Brata's words.
Brata conveyed the essence of the meeting at that time. He also asked that every employee do their job well. Before he ended his words, he allowed the employees to ask him any questions. But no one employee is willing, except Naiki. Naiki desperately did not want to waste the opportunity. He raised his hand and stood up.
"Please. Introduce your name and ask your question." Brata.
"My name is Naiki Rhea." Naiki. Brata surprised. His eyes immediately stared intently at Naiki. His heart suddenly beat very quickly when he heard Naiki mention his name.
"I got word that the company is experiencing a loss that is not small and can be said to be almost bankrupt. Is it true that way, Mr Brata? If so, what steps would you take to save the company?" Naiki asked with a faint smile. He knew Brata was surprised to hear the name he mentioned.
Hearing Naiki's question, the employees in the meeting room became boisterous. Some were panicking, and some were in disbelief. The average of them is afraid of becoming unemployed later.
"Where did this woman come from? Why is his name exactly the same as that unlucky kid's name?" Inner Steffanie. He also heard Naiki's words.
"EVERYTHING'S QUIET!" Shouted Brata. His voice echoed in the meeting room. Instantly the room became quiet.
"I hope you don't believe the rumors that are circulating out there. I'm sure Brata Corp will remain stable going forward." Brata.
Naiki smiled faintly hearing Brata's words. He then sat back in his chair. "The mission is over." Mumbled Naiki.
Sisi glared at Naiki's behavior. Wouldn't his attitude just now be very dangerous in the future? "He deliberately lured Brata and Steffanie out of his lair."
The quarterly meeting was finally over at lunchtime. However, before the participants completely disbanded, Brata again stood up and wanted to convey something.
"It has been more than a month that the position of Director in this company is vacant. On this occasion let me introduce my son to you. He will fill the position of Director at Brata Corp from tomorrow." Brata. All the employees were surprised.
A man then stood up and walked forward and took a position next to Brata.
"Meet me, this is Justin. From tomorrow he will be the Director of Brata Corp." Brata slapped Justin on the shoulder.
Naiki and Sisi were really surprised by it. Likewise with other employees, especially those from the Marketing Team. Same team as Justin.
"This crazy guy, Nai!" Excite Sisi while shaking his head.
"Ck, I guess comrade, turns out to be an opponent." Cetus Naiki's.
Justin introduced himself officially. Steffanie, Sonya, and Niko were not surprised either. Because Justin's entry there was also the arrangement of the three of them. Although Justin is not very familiar with Niko or Sonya.
After Alya's death, Brata remarried a widow of one child. A wealthy widow bequeathed her former husband's estate, and the inheritance was again overrun by the wealth-mad Brata. Brata did not seem to love Justin like her own child. However, he also did not torture Justin as he did his biological son.
Now Justin is smiling proudly in front of other employees. He felt, he began to freely lift his chin in the company. Because his status is now a Director, no longer a new employee who is still in the training stage. Justin looked up and looked at Naiki.
"Now you know, who's my father? I can get you." Justin's inner being continued to look towards Naiki.
