Paper Dove

LAST WARNING

I stared at the TV screen in my office. Seeing the news anchor is broadcasting a case of embezzlement of funds from a hospital project. The name of the entrepreneur with the initials H has begun to be often called.

I turned off the TV and went back to work I was doing. My secretary Maria entered in a hurry.

"Sir, Mr. Hartanto insisted on meeting you", Maria tried to calm down.

"Let him in", I ordered.

" Good sir", answered Maria. Then he went out of the room and came back with Hartanto.

Maria walked out of the room and Doni stood up straight from his chair. Seems alert.

I continued to do my job until Hartanto called my name with great pressure.

" Mister Juan", call him.

I stopped scratching ink onto the paper. Raised my head and looked at the man who was about to enter his 50s.

" Can I help my father-in-law?", I asked politely.

" I don't want to be stale. Are you the one who gave the information to the reporters?", he asked directly.

I smile. " Yes.. That's me ", I replied casually.

" Why do you do it?", Hartanto went up. " You have destroyed my family, your wife's family" he cried.

I scratched my non-itchy skin. " family? Doni is Jeni's family other than her grandfather?", I asked Doni.

" There used to be a master. But Darmawan's mistress and grandfather were kicked out of the house and removed from the family card", explained Doni without being screened.

" Open your ears well. You guys already threw it away so why did you pick it back up? Jeni is currently my family, she is my wife, Jeni Anderson. And he is an orphan who was cared for by his grandfather, Mr. Darmawan", I said coldly while looking at Hartanto sharply.

He was silent, unable to say a word. Then she boldly replied "I didn't mean to be mean to her, but I took care of her wholeheartedly. I just don't want him to suffer inside my house" she said sadly.

I laughed quite loudly at his words. I stood up from my chair and walked around the table, then leaned against my desk.

I looked at Hartanto with a cold face. " You're being funny now? ", my voice sounds like a heartless person.

There was horror on Hartanto's face when he heard the voice and the change in my face.

" How dare you disturb mine. Looks like you and your wife forgot who you were dealing with. You think I'm as good as my wife who always apologizes to people who hurt her?", I laughed coldly. My voice boomed in my office.

Hartanto was silent in his place looking anxious and scared. " I'm not the kind one. I can destroy you and your family to the root. Even your descendant", I smile deathly cynically.

Hartanto widened his eyes and immediately fell to his knees in limp. "I'm sorry, Mr. Juan. I'm sorry for harassing you. Please just this once, forgive me and my family" he said.

"Slowly, I warned you and your wife. But look at your behavior", I shook my head.

Hartanto fell silent, and Maria rushed back into my room in a hurry. "Mr Jeni has come" he said.

Hartanto looked at me "Let me meet my nephew, I will beg for mercy under his feet", Hartanto pleaded.

I told Maria to leave with my eyes. " I won't allow it, because she will definitely shed her tears and forgive you. Listen to me Hartanto", I speak with my baritone voice.

" This is the result you have to accept for harassing my little family. I'll tell you a secret. Your son is an addict", I threw a picture of his son to the floor nearby.

His face looked dumbfounded in disbelief at his sight.

"Because you used to take care of my wife, then I'll help your son. That'sallthatis. And from today on, don't you and your wife ever dare touch Jeni and Darmawan's grandfather. If that happens then I will destroy everything left in your life later", I said coldly and ruthlessly.

Hartanto looked down in despair. I took my phone on the table. Then walked past him who was still kneeling in shock.

I stopped right next to him. "Remember my words Hartanto. Don't you ever show up in front of me again. Even the tip of your hair" I said cruelly and left to meet my wife who was waiting in Anna's room. Mary took him there to avoid him from her cruel uncle.

" O baby you've come" Anna welcomes me.

" Thank you for taking care of my wife" you said kindly to Anna.

" Any time bebh. And okay I leave you guys, yeah, I have a meeting. Bye Jeni, don't forget my gift" she said winked.

Jeni smiled kindly "thank you sister" she said.

Anna then walked quickly to the meeting room leaving me and Jeni in her room. I looked at Jeni full of cravings.

"You have been a long time, and I have come quickly" he lamented.

" I'm sorry baby, I had a little important business that I couldn't stay" I reasoned.

Jeni smiles. "Where are we going today?", he asked.

" Today we will buy a house for us to live in" I replied stroking his face.

His face looks shocked. "You're serious, right? Not kidding?", his face seemed to be holding back a sense of pleasure.

" Yes, I'm seriously dear", I put his hand on my face.

Jeni hugged me happily. " How about your hotel? ", tanyanya.

"It doesn't matter, it can be a private room if we want to stay there" I said casually.

Jeni nodded according. I'm happy, Jeni's been obedient lately. The stubborn nature of his head during this time was only made a shield by him to fight those who hurt him.

We went down in a pretty luxurious residential complex. We spent some time looking around and Jeni asked more questions.

I'm handing it all over to him. Whatever he wants I will give him. After being satisfied to ask and look around, Jeni finally chose one of the houses. This house is the type Jeni wants, a house with a spacious yard. Eco-friendly and child-friendly.

Someone came up to me and said quietly while Jeni was busy with the others.

" Mister Juan, I'm sorry why did you come here yourself? You should just call, we'll get ready right away" said one of the business owners.

I smiled kindly "No problem. My wife wants this. I'm going to plant a stake here doesn't mean I can do what I want. Follow the flow like everyone else ", I said.

" Good sir. I will prepare all the procedures" he said.

I'm nodding. When Jeni came back she smiled happily at me.

" dear you can renovate the house as you wish. Everything in the house can be arranged", I said stroking her hair.

" really? Then there's so much I want to add", Jeni said happily.

" Doni arrange everything tomorrow at my wife's request. Find the best architect ", I command.

"Okay sir", replied Doni.

"Emm.. in addition there are things that we have to do alone without the help of architects dear" he said happily.

" What is that?", I wondered.

" When we moved. You will know", Jeni smiled happily.
