PAST VIDEO SCANDALS

There's No Word of Forgiveness

Bagas listened to an explanation of the task he had to do for the next week by tapping the tip of the pen to his glass-lined workbench. While he focused his gaze towards the draft that was in his left hand. He deliberately did not want to set his eyes on Elma, who during explaining to him the woman's gaze never broke from Bagas' face.

" Congratulations on your engagement, Bagas. I heard that you're engaged to a conglomerate's daughter who lives in America." The Bagas engagement event that Evelyn held majestically in one of Gavin's hotels certainly sounded in Elma's ears because Elma worked at the Gavin hotel and had a fairly high position.

Bagas just turned his gaze toward Elma when the woman mentioned her engagement to Evelyn who had run aground. Bagas doesn't know where Elma knows about his engagement. However, he immediately remembered that Elma was Gavin's employee as well.

" I thought you'd marry your affair, Bagas." Elma smiled faintly and only caused a faint indentation at the corner of her lips. The affair referred to by Elma is definitely Indhira. Because while dating her, Bagas left her for Indhira. Elma herself did not understand why Bagas had abandoned her for an ordinary woman like Indhira. Therefore, when he heard about the viral video case between Bagas and Indhira, he felt it was karma for Bagas who had betrayed him and for Indhira because he had taken Bagas from him.

" It turned out like I thought before. You can never last long in a relationship with one woman," said Elma, who suspects that Bagas eventually dumped Indhira.

Bagas continued to look at Elma, he was not interested in explaining to Elma about her match status with Evelyn which was over. Perhaps it was better for Elma to assume that she was still engaged to Evelyn, so that Elma would not do what she was afraid of. At least Evelyn's social status as the son of a famous businessman would definitely make anyone think long to compete with Evelyn. Unlike if he was frank about his current status is the husband of Indhira, it would be easier for Elma to harass her household, because she can see if Elma still holds a grudge against him.

" I think everyone deserves to look their best." Bagas acknowledged what Elma had said. He himself did not particularly like to discuss his personal matters with Elma.

" Yes, you're right Bagas. But I'm a little lucky, I'm not the one who fell victim to you in that viral video." Elma's insinuation made Bagas speechless for a while.

" I think you'd better get back to your desk, Elma. It's my first day on duty. I don't want to exemplify bad things to my men by talking about personal things during work hours." Bagas wants to end the conversation about his past with Elma. He's lazy if anyone brings up the viral video case with Indhira.

Elma smiled faintly because she felt she managed to make Bagas die of fleas with her innuendo earlier. He then walked out of Bagas' work room.

" The al! It could be dangerous if Elma keeps talking about the video." Bagas, rubbing his face rough. Just the first day of his duty he had gotten a problem from Elma, and precisely the problem he got was a problem related to his personal life. Especially at the hotel there is a cousin Indhira who also knows about the video a susila himself with the woman who is now his wife.

" I have to be careful here, especially with Elma. I don't think he's sincere I left yet. And he could have used the video case to put pressure on me." Bagas must be extra vigilant against Elma, which is not impossible to be a bully of his calm.

Adibrata stared intently at Dahlan and Taufan who this afternoon fulfilled his call to meet in a private room famous restaurant. Adibrata had just received a report from Hamid if both of his men had defected from him. Betrayed by covering up what Bagas had done without his knowledge.

" I didn't expect you two to have betrayed me all this time, Dahlan, Typhoon!" angered Adibrata full of anger because he did not expect if the two people who had been his duty to watch over Bagas were more on the side of Bagas. Although he realized the performance of his two men began to decline due to lack of agility to inform him about the investigation of Bagas, but he did not think if they both had been complaining..

" I'm sorry, Sir. At that time Mas Bagas was very angry when I found out I was investigating. Mas Bagas threatened me to stop following Mas Bahas, Sir." Dahlan recounts how he finally considered Adibrata to support what Bagas did.

" You're afraid of Bagas!? Who paid you all this time!? Why do you obey him more than I want to follow what I tell you!?" Adibrata is further enraged by Dahlan's answer.

" And you see for yourself what's happening to my son right now, right!? He ran away from home and preferred to be with the poor woman rather than his own family! Had I known about the woman in the first place, I would have acted sooner so that Bagas would not have gotten married to a woman with an obscure social status at all!" Adibrata seemed to blame, what happened to Bagas was the result of the betrayal of Dahlan and Typhoon.

Dahlan turned to look at his partner. Although he was disappointed with the recognition of the Typhoon, but he could not prohibit the Typhoon who wanted to defend by making the confession.

" If you know your partner is wrong, why not report it to me right away!? Why are you covering up, Typhoon!?" The recognition of Typhoon actually makes Adibrata more inflamed.

Hoping to defend Adibrata's pardon, Papa of Bagas blamed the Typhoon for not immediately reporting on Dahlan's betrayal.

" Hmmm, sorry, sir." Typhoon could not re-defend because Adibrata seemed not to consider his differences with Dahlan. For Adibrata himself, the free Typhoon contradicts Dahlan, as long as the Typhoon remains silent to him. Adibrata would still judge them both to be traitors.

" I am very disappointed with both of you. Therefore, from this moment on, you two are no longer in need of me!" adibrata fired Dahlan and Taufan from their duties.

Dahlan and Taufan were interested in hearing Adibrata's decision to fire them. The two of them looked at each other with different eyes. If Dahlan stares with regret and resignation, Taufan is just the opposite. The gaze directed by the Typhoon towards Dahlan was full of disappointment and annoyance because the Typhoon considered what happened to work because of Dahlan's attitude towards Bagas.

" This is your pay. From this moment on you two are no longer working with Adibrata Mahesa!" Adibrata seemed to affirm, anyone who dared to oppose let alone betray him, there was no word of mercy for them.
