Possessive Companions

Chapter 19

The days keep passing. Asya is still trying to bring Darren and Naomi closer. In the end, all attempts failed.

Asya walked out of his office. He's going to the Grisam Group to discuss their cooperation. Asya went straight to the parking lot and ran her car.

"Darren know if I'm replacing Dad, leading the company?" Asya Gumam.

Asya parked his car in the parking lot of Grisam Group. He walked in and went straight to the reception desk.

"Can I help you, miss?" Ask a receptionist when Asya approaches her.

"I am from Yunanda Group. I want to see Mr. Darren."

"Did she make an appointment?"

"Yes," answered Asya, gently.

"Come, miss. I'll drive you." Said the employee, leave his workplace to one of his fellow receptionists, then take Asya to a special elevator for Grisam Group clients.

The elevator stopped right on the top floor. Where there is only Darren's room and also Jiyo's secretary's room.

"I'm just dropping you off here, miss. Secretary sir is waiting. Please, miss." Asya nodded and walked out of the elevator.

Justright. Just a few steps away, he had already met Jiyo. The man looked quite surprised. The reason, one of the receptionist employees said that their client was a person from Yunanda Group. His thoughts were only on Edo. It was unexpected, it turned out that Asya was coming.

"Good morning, Secretary Jiyo." Sapa Asya's. He slightly held back his smile seeing Jiyo's shock.

"Morning goodies, Asy uh miss." He said, a little confused.

Asya could not help her smile anymore. He smiled widely and chuckled softly.

"What's wrong with you? Why is it like people are confused?"

"Ah, yes. I'm confused to see you here. It should be Uncle Edo here."

"I'm replacing Dad taking care of the company."

"Since when?"

"A week ago."

"Why not tell me or the twins?"

"I forgot. Never mind, now take me to your boss's room."

"Oh yes. I'm sorry, miss." Jiyo said while bowing her body.

"Don't be so formal."

"Hehehe... You are our client. Come," said Jiyo and led Asya to Darren's room.

Geck... Geck... Geck... Jiyo knocked on the door and before long Darren's voice sounded from inside.

"Lake in!" His voice sounded so cold.

Jiyo pushed slowly through Darren's door, and let Asya in.

"Please, miss."

Asya enters with Jiyo. The man was standing right in front of Darren's desk. "Sorry, sir. There's a client from Yunanda Group."

Hearing Yunanda Group, Darren looked up immediately. He thought it was Edo. However, he was slightly surprised by Asya's presence there.

"Ashya?" Mumbled slowly.

The girl smiled at him. "Good morning, sir." Asya slightly lowered her head.

Darren stood up and approached Asya. "Morning. Come on, sit down." Darren said softly, making Jiyo roll her eyeballs. The softness of Darren when with Asya has become a normal thing for him.

"If there's nothing in need, I'm sorry sir."

Jiyo rushed out of Darren's room. In his heart he kept nagging his best friend.

Ck. You Darren! If with Asya, it is always as gentle and as good as that. And strangely, continue to deny when it is said that he likes Asya. Inner Jiyo.

Darren looked at Asya with a gaze asking for an explanation. He knew his schedule today would meet with Edo, the owner of Yunanda Group. But, he still did not understand the moment that came was Asya.

"You're replacing uncle taking care of the company?" Darren's question made Asya who focused on preparing the file turn to him.

The girl nodded slowly. "Yes. Papa asked me to replace him. Even though I'm still learning, I'll try to do my best."

Darren smiled slightly, while stroking Asya's hair. "You can do it."

Asya nodded with eyes locked on Darren's face. It was rare to see the man smiling.

The two then began to discuss their company's cooperation. Until suddenly, the door was knocked back, making them stop the discussion for a moment.

Jiyo pushed the door after getting Darren's order to enter. The man brought a tray of drinks and put it on the table.

However, he had yet to step up, Asya stopped him.

"Wait, Jiy uh I mean Jiyo's secretary."

The man turned to look at Asya. But, in his heart he kept muttering for Asya to let go.

Come on Asya, don't make Darren torture me with so much work to do. Inner Jiyo.

"Where are you going? Come on, sit down." Asya Say.

Hearing Asya's words, Jiyo's eyes immediately turned towards Darren. Only glimpses. But he felt his heartbeat racing fast. The master was looking at him with a murderous look. As if to say, if you accept his offer, then you are finished.

Jiyo painstakingly gulped her saliva. He forced his smile on Asya. "no need. You guys just talk about his cooperation. I still have a lot of work to do as soon as possible. Excuse me." Jiyo bowed and immediately passed from the face of Asya and Darren.

Asya turned her gaze to the file that was on the table. His face looked sad to get Jiyo's rejection.

"He's doing a lot of work. We'll have lunch later." Darren tried to cheer.

Asya looked up at Darren. "really?" Asya's face sparkled.

"Yes." Yeah."

"thank you. Go, continue!"

The two talked about their cooperation. Until it ends with the decision they will visit the location of their project.

"Come on!" Darren takes Asya out. Lunch is still a few hours away.

Asya was speechless with an inseparable look from Darren. "There's 2 hours left for lunch." Reply Asya.

"There's still work in your company?" Asya shakes.

"Come, come!"

"Where?"

"Follow it out." Reply Darren. He grabbed Asya's hand and walked out, passing through Jiyo's room just like that. Then they headed to the left of Jiyo's room. Right next to her room and Jiyo's.

There is a room whose front wall and door are made of glass. Not so big, but in the room there is a table and several chairs, and a row of sofas arranged facing the table in the middle. Not many knew about the room, because of the presence of the blocked room Darren and Jiyo. Only Darren, Jiyo and the office boy worked on the floor.

Ever since he started leading the company, he changed the order of the room on that floor.

Darren pushed slowly through the door of the room and invited Asya in.

"What room is this?" Ask Asya.

"Looking room."

Asya nodded. "It should not be seen when getting off the elevator. He's so hidden." Asya Gumam.

Darren didn't respond even if he heard. He pulled out a chair and asked Asya to sit down.

"We're going to have lunch here?"

"If you want to stay here, we'll have lunch here."

"No. Let's just get out." Reply Asya. His eyes stared at the large glass window that revealed a beautiful view of the city.

"It'll be more beautiful at night." Mumbled unconsciously.

Darren just fell silent without retaliating. His gaze was fixed on what Asya saw.

"Why is there this room?" Asya asked, turning her gaze to look at Darren.

"Like." Reply, briefly.

"Do you like to enjoy this view?"

"Hmmm..."

"In your study there are also large windows like this. Why not enjoy it there?"

"Working space is not like a lounge." Reply Darren.

Asya nodded. But the next second, Asya's forehead shriveled. There was a door in the room, which he believed was connected to the next room.

"What is a connecting door with your work space?"

"Hm... Exactly the rest room."

Asya nodded back. In his father's room which is currently his room there is also a rest room. From it all, he knew, they worked so hard and without any complaints coming out of their mouths.

Asya and Darren spend some time before lunch together. Like Alisha who narrates life in her school with enthusiasm, like that Asya also tells her life abroad. It's just a fun life story. He was still comfortable with the gentle gaze of Darren who heard his story, and did not want to ruin the moment with the less pleasant story that befell him.
