"We just need to make other preparations. Kayla, take note of anything that is still lacking. After that we will return to meet with the employees." said Etha enthusiastically with a smile adorning her lips.
"Every Miss" said Kayla, saluting, then walked into her room.
While Etha chose to go into her study to resume her work.

A few days continued to pass and got closer to the top of the fashion show. Almost every day Etha left for the boutique early in the morning at dawn and would return home after the day.
Though Alfhat had thrown words of protest accompanied by threats to ask him to stop working, if every day home late. But, Etha did not care about it at all and instead stayed away from it.
Etha was so busy these days and rarely met or argued with Alfhat. Although he wanted to argue with the man, because every night he slept in bed with him. But he did not want to serve it, because the business of fashion shows is much more important for him.
Moreover, Alfhat did nothing to him, just sleeping beside him. Even he was the one who subconsciously embraced the man he hated.
But behind all that, Alfhat himself took advantage of it. Unfortunately, Etha did not know it, because it was too tired and tired after returning from work. He just needs to rest his body on the bed until he falls asleep and does not know what happens next.
While Alfhat himself lately often daydream and sometimes smile himself. This makes the believer look confused with the behavior of his boss.
Like today, they were in the same car. It looks like his boss is smiling himself who is occupying the back seat.
Looks like something's wrong. His mind glanced at his boss through the rearview mirror of the car.
"Richard!"
"Yes sir" said Richard quickly.
"Why hasn't the old woman shown me the conditions that will be put before me?" ask Alfhat.
"It seems like Miss Etha has been so busy lately. According to information, the lady will hold a fashion show with Muslim fashion designers, so she is busy preparing it. So that miss forgot that one thing." explained Richard.
"Oh deserved it." said Alfhat chuckled lightly while imagining the events that the past few days had made him happy.
"Master"
Alfhat did not hear the call of his confidants at all. He seemed to be engrossed in his own world.
"Master!" richard said in a slightly raised voice.
"Oh yeah, what's up?" alfhat asked while leaning on his back.
"Sir, Miss Jessi's manager has contacted me about your date. So, when do you have free time to go on a date with Miss Jessi" Richard reminded her.
"Truly impatient woman, actually I'm getting tired of dating the daughter of state officials. Because they are all very troublesome and make you dizzy. I was forced to accept the prime minister's offer the other day by asking his daughter out on a date together. It was all I did solely for the sake of smoothing out my business project." said Alfhat while exhaling violently. "Yes, just arrange my date and immediately confirm the woman's manager, let everything be resolved quickly." he continued, loosening his tie.
"Okay sir" said Richard with a nod of his head.
Shortly thereafter, the car carrying them began to enter the Sanders Group company's courtyard and stopped right in front of the company's entrance.
The bodyguards on guard moved quickly to open the car door for his boss. Then they compactly bent his body, along with Alfhat down from the car, then followed by Richard.
They then walked in tandem with wide steps towards the elevator specifically for the company leader. When he was about to enter the elevator, there was the sound of someone calling his name.
"Mrs. Alphat"
Alfhat immediately turned his gaze towards the owner.
"Miss Jessi!" he said with a cold look.
"Don't be too formal, just call Alfhat." Alfhat protested hearing the woman's call.
"Then, you don't have to call me Miss, just call Jessi, let us look familiar" she said with a charming smile.
"Jessi, you don't have to bother bringing me breakfast, because I always have breakfast from home. And for today, I'm so busy and haven't had the time to date with you" said Alfhat, who knows all too well the motives of the women when going near her. Including the woman standing before him now.
Suddenly Jessi's countenance changed, her morning sun-red smile slowly fading at the corner of her lips. One of his hands on a strong head heard the words of the man he was after.
"No problem, I've been busy lately" she replied with a forced smile.
"Don't worry, after I have free time, my secretary immediately confirmed to your manager about the date we will do." said Alfhat then stepped into the elevator, followed by Richard.
"Yes, thank you. I'm glad you want to take your time for me." Jessi smiled.
Alfhat who was already standing inside the elevator was only able to nod his head until the elevator door was tightly closed and moved up to the highest floor.
Jessi immediately snorted annoyedly at the paper bag she was carrying. He was able to have breakfast with Alfhat.
"I'm not giving up. Considering my rival's been eliminated. It is time for me to conquer you, Alfhat. I'll make you bend your knees before me and never turn away from another woman again." he muttered with a sly smile. After that, he walked away.

The day Etha had been waiting for with her employees finally arrived as well. They are so excited and compact to carry out their respective duties. Because exactly tonight, a fashion show will be held in a five-star hotel.
Event fashion show or fashion show this time is held so festive and attended by people from various classes and social strata. Not only fellow designers, but also people from various circles. Starting from celebrities, socialites, entrepreneurs, fashion manufacturers, fashion connoisseurs, journalists, fashion stylists, fashion designers and so forth.
This event is also not without purpose. Both the event organizers and participants who attended, will both get great benefits from the activity.
Meanwhile, Etha and her team did their best preparations. His entire team was well-coordinated and had already gathered in a special room. Starting from makeup artists, Hijab stylists, choreography, Dressers (duty to help models wear clothes), model coordinators and models totaling ten people all from orphanages. All models have an important role to show or showcase fashion products in front of the audience.
Before the event began, they all compactly offered prayers for the smooth running of the fashion show. They all work together, helping each other with a never-sagging spirit.
"Miss Etha, we are the last performers" Kayla said, showing the draw.
"No problem, keep encouraging the models, so they look their best" said Etha smiling.
"Good Miss." said Kayla, then rushed to the models who were ready to show the clothes she wore.
Seen Alfhat with Jessi just arrived at the fashion show. Tonight is their date schedule. It's just, Jessi got an invitation from a fashion show, inevitably she also invited Alfhat to attend the event and Alfhat did not refuse his invitation at all.
The arrival of Alfhat and Jessi invited a lot of public opinion. But they look relaxed. One of the event organizers directly directs them to sit in the front seat and is usually dedicated to important people. Alfhat and Jessi were sitting next to each other.
"After this, I want to have dinner with you" said the smiling Jessi who had already occupied her seat. Slowly he reached out his hand to grasp Alfhat's hand, but as fast as lightning Alfhat's hand was stretched out to take his phone out of his suit pocket.
"Let's see, if there's still time" said Alfhat casually.
"Alright, but I want to spend all night with you" Jessi said as she hugged Alfhat's arm with her message, making Alfhat uncomfortable with her behavior.
Alfhat did not chimed in on his remarks and chose to see a fashion show performed by a professional model. Muslim fashion models began to show their actions on the catwalk.
Where is the old woman, wasn't she also chosen to do a fashion show. Inner Alfhat searched for Etha's existence.
Seriate....
