PLEASE, LOVE ME, WIDOW

ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY

"I didn't come here to return to the company, Dika, but I came here to make sure you accept the responsibility that Daniel has placed on you. So, never twist from the duties and responsibilities that have been mandated to you" said Daddy Putra firmly.

Daddy Putra knew very well and knew Dika very well, he knew that Dika would not be easy to accept the position. That's why he took the time to come to the company, just to make sure Dika did not reject the presidency. Because if someone else is racing for the position, then Dika is the only person who does not want it.

Daddy Putra knew Dika's dedication to Daniel very well, and he also believed that Dika would not be easy to accept the position. Since Dika entered the meeting room and chose to remain in his place rather than in the presidency, Daddy Putra was increasingly convinced that Dika would refuse the position.

"But, Mr. ..." said Dika's assistant still trying to find an excuse.

"There is no longer any objection, Dika, Daniel's letter is very clear and lawful. Including the delivery of thirty percent shares of the company, plus the shares you own as much as five percent, making you the only person who has the right to replace Daniel. Not only for now, but so on, because your share of ownership is even larger than Daniel's" Daddy Putra said in a firm and loud voice.

"We all agree, Mr. Dika, that what Mr. Son said is true. In addition to you as the largest shareholder in PT. Mahardika, you are also the most know everything about this company. You're the only one we can hope to deal with all this chaos" said one senior board member.

Daddy Putra suddenly stood facing Dika's assistant, "I am in my personal name and on behalf of my son, apologizing as much as possible for all this mess, Mr. Dika, and I also implore you to be willing to take over this company indefinitely" Daddy Putra said, bowing to Dika's assistant.

"Dad, don't be like this" exclaimed Dika's assistant who was quite surprised to see Daddy Putra bowing respectfully by pleading with him. "Dad, I'm going to keep trying to save the company, without having to replace Daniel. So, there is no need for daddy to behave like that" said assistant Dika with uncertain feelings.

"Mr Dika, you will not be able to maximally save the company without occupying the position of president. You know for yourself, if all the decisions are in the hands of the president. So whatever your decision later, will not be considered if you are not already a president" said Daddy Putra again.

Assistant Dika sighed heavily, she could not deny that what was said by the daddy was true. Dika Assistant knows that all decisions must be verified by the president. "But, Dad ...." Dika's assistant was still trying to resist, for some reason she felt so unworthy to replace Daniel.

Dika's assistant felt as if she was taking a chance in a narrowness if she took over the company at this time. Indeed he had no intention of letting the company collapse, Dika's assistant had already devised various plans to save the company. And all that he had thought about without thinking about the position as president.

"Yes, already, then we immediately vote, for those who agree Mr. Dika to replace Daniel as president, please raise your hand" Daddy Putra said, said Dika's assistant.

And at that moment all the hands of the council members were raised upwards as a statement of their approval. Dika's assistant could only stare resignedly at all that, he couldn't possibly also have to oppose Father Son in the hands of all the meeting participants.

"I'm sorry, Daniel, I promise I'll give it back to you if things are conducive" his assistant said, filled with guilt for Daniel.

"Alright, because everything has been agreed, then we can immediately sign the news of the presidential transfer event from Daniel Putra Mahardika to Dika" daddy Putra's voice again broke the mind of Dika's assistant who was still struggling in her heart.

Secretary Risha immediately circulated the news of the handover event which was immediately signed by all meeting participants. The result was immediately endorsed by William's lawyer and handed over to Putra's father. Daddy Putra watched the diversion letter for a moment, looking as the old man let out a slow breath. And Dika's assistant caught the grief on the face of the daddy who was still trying to cover it up.

After checking for a while and feeling that everything was complete, daddy Putra immediately stood up, "Please forward Mr. Dika" said the daddy in a heavy voice but remained firm.

With a heavy heart finally Dika's assistant came forward and stood before the Son's daddy, "Today, I officially handed over this company to Dika, who will be the president of this company with all the rights and obligations inherent in this position. And with this also I release Daniel Putra Mahardika from the position of president of PT.Mahardika to an unspecified time limit" said daddy Putra.

Daddy Putra handed over the handover file to Dika's assistant who was greeted with a heavy heart by the young man. "Please, Mr. Dika, give your first welcome" Daddy Putra said after shaking Dika's assistant's hand and patting him gently on the shoulder.

It was hard, but Dika's assistant knew she could not resist anymore, "Thank you for all the trust placed in me, hopefully I can take on this responsibility, and I expect the support and cooperative attitude of all parties to solve the company's current problems. One thing I want to make clear, do not let there be any news that says Daniel has given up all this. The submission of the position of president must be entirely based on the results of the decision of the honorable board of commissioners" said Dika's assistant who automatically proved that he accepted the task.

All the meeting participants were silent to hear the words said Dika's assistant. "And I hope that no one seeks fame from all these events by opening their mouths about the unqualified before the news seeker. Because if there is an error in giving a statement by an insider, it will probably make things worse. So, once again I hope all parties can refrain and say nothing to the media" said Dika's assistant firmly.

All meeting participants nodded their heads in approval to Dika's request, "We are willing and will implement it, the President" said all meeting participants simultaneously.

When hearing the title of the presidir of the meeting participants caused a sense of guilt in Dika's heart. I don't know, he still feels like he betrayed Daniel because he took that position from his best friend. In fact, Daniel himself had handed over the office to him. But still his heart felt guilty to Daniel.

"Well, thank you for your support and trust, please support prayer so that our company can get through this problem well, my meeting closed" said Dika firmly.

It is not new for Dika to lead a meeting, because since long ago he has also often handled various meetings when Daniel could not attend. In addition, Dika has led several companies, both the company giving Daddy Putra, as well as the company owned by his family that he had taken back from Lee.

What makes Dika feel a bit awkward is because of his position that inevitably has to replace Daniel at this time. Doubt and guilt continued to linger in the handsome man's heart.

However, he also realized that he had to carry out the duties and responsibilities that had been entrusted to him.

"I'll follow you to your room, Mr. Dika" said Daddy Putra who can catch the wishes of his adopted son.

"Hmm ...." said Dika while nodding and then stepping out of the meeting room and followed by lawyer William and secretary Risha.

Dika stepped into his own room, but was detained by William's lawyer, "Master, your room is over there" William's lawyer pointed to another room on the floor. Indeed, only Daniel and Dika's room is on the highest floor of PT's office. That mahardika.

"No, Will, I'm gonna stay in this room, let's just get the writing down here. I will not disturb Daniel's room, because sooner or later he must and must return here" Dika said.

"That's not going to happen anytime soon, Dika" arrived Daddy Son's voice surprised the three, making them immediately turn their head towards the source of the voice.

"Dad, ..." said Dika staring at the Daddy.

"Sir, ..." said William's lawyer and secretary Risha simultaneously, "We'll excuse you, Mr. Dika" said William's lawyer, who answered with a nod of Dika's head.

"Please enter, Dad" said Dika as he entered the room that had been opened by Risha's secretary. Meanwhile, William's lawyer stepped into a guest sofa near the secretary's desk.

Daddy Putra just nodded slightly, then he stepped up to follow Dika, "Why don't you occupy the presidir's room, Dika, is it too hard for you to accept this task" ask Daddy Son when he was sitting on the guest sofa in the room Dika.

"I'm sorry, Dad, I'm not against this task, Daddy knows my loyalty and dedication is not" said Dika who also sat in front of Daddy Putra.

"Then why do you look so reluctant to even refuse the position as president" asked Daddy Putra again.

Dika just sighed softly, then he stood up and took out two bottles of mineral water and placed one of them in front of the Son's daddy. "Please drink, Dad" he said as he opened the bottle of drink in his hand and uprooted the drink to the toilet.

"What's wrong, Dika, tell Daddy" asked Daddy Putra still demanding an answer from Dika.

"Dad, you know the friendship between me and Daniel, our attachment is much tighter than a brotherhood. Daniel was always there in the most difficult moment I faced and vice versa. Please help and help each other is normal for both of us and it is obligatory for me to always be by Daniel's side. So, whatever the circumstances of me or Daniel, wrong or right we still have to help each other" said Dika again.

"Then what's the problem, let's just say you're helping Daniel" Daddy Putra said again.

"That position is the problem, Dad, I know very well and am very aware that it belongs to Daniel, and he has fought very hard to bring PT. Mahardika to be at this point" said Dika again.

"You mean the presidency" asked Daddy Putra again.

"Right, Dad, I feel like I'm seizing Daniel's rights, and I feel like a traitor. I swear to God, Dad, I really don't want that position, I'm still going to save this company no matter how I do without having to replace Daniel. Only Daniel is entitled to the position of president because he is the only heir to Mahardika, Dad" hiss Dika again.

"You're wrong, Dika, it's not that Daniel is my only son that he's entitled to the presidency. This department has nothing to do with kinship. It is true that this company is a company owned by the Mahardika family, but who has the right to be the president here is not absolute only descendants of Mahardika. Daniel held this post for many years because he was indeed competent for it. But now, he is really incompetent, he can ignore the company and the fate of PT employees. Mahardika is for his personal benefit only. So, Daniel has absolutely no right to be president again, Dika" explained Daddy Putra at length.

"Daniel is just being khilaf and misguided, Dad, I'm sure when he realizes his mistake he will come back again, Dad" said Dika still trying to defend Daniel.

"It's possible, Dika, but it won't be easy, he touched the Zacharias family even causing Walt to be in a critical state. So, even if Daniel realizes his mistake, he still has to face the threat of punishment that must be carried out by the Zacharias family" said the son's father again.

"The problem of punishment, it's true Daniel will face it, Dad, but we won't let it go. And if possible, I myself will replace Daniel to serve his sentence" said Dika confidently. Dika has been used to solve all Daniel's problems, even several times had to spend time in prison to protect Daniel.

"It's not going to be easy, Dika, Daniel has appeared directly in front of the crowd. And you can't keep protecting her, either, Dika, daddy doesn't accept. Let Daniel learn to bear the consequences of his actions. And again, the opponent we will face is not an easy opponent" said father Putra.

"Anything is difficult we will face, Dad" said Dika confidently.

"The Zacharias family is the main noble family that is the royal family of the leader of this country first, so their strength cannot be considered trivial, Dika" said Daddy Putra again.
