"I salute you. You were able to develop Wasim Bank into a big company". Reynald said when he had finished touring Rashaad's main office.
Rashaad walked to the sofa and sat himself down to be followed by Reynald. The two sat facing each other. Rashaad opened a small jar that was on a marble table in the middle of the sofa. He picked up a little chocolate wrapped up like candy.
"You want? Take it". The rose of Rashaad was responded by a headband from Reynald.
"No. Thanku". Reject Reynald smooth.
Rashaad sighed slowly and looked at Reynald seriously.
"My company is still under the authority of the parent company, Rajil Sahir Group. That means there's still interference from both my parents. Just like there's nothing great hehehe".
Reynald circulated his gaze throughout Rashaad's study.
"But still your leadership in the company is not in doubt".
Rashaad chuckled softly. "Isn't it the same with you? You're great too!".
"Hmm Yes.. Yeah.."
"But how long are we gonna throw each other compliments like this? Until one of us has an excessive sense of awe?". Reynald asked a joke.
Rashaad laughed so hard he held his stomach. "Haha.. Behind your cold expression on your face, it turns out you have a good sense of humor!".
"Many say that. But my sense of humor disappeared 5 years ago". Reynald said slowly throwing his gaze in any direction.
Rashaad looked at Reynald closely. It was so deep that he realized Reynald's sudden change in countenance had become moody. Rashaad then put a small smile on his lips.
"That's life. Things don't work out the way we planned, do they?".
Reynald looked at Rashaad as he leaned against the sofa. "Yes. That's life".
"All right, let's change the topic!" Rashaad said as he stood up from the sofa to a large safe located in the corner of the room.
Rashaad then entered a password and turned the safe open. He took out a chocolate file and closed the safe.
Rashaad stepped back onto the sofa and gave Reynald the file he had taken.
"You read that. My secretary has made a founders agreement". Rashaad.
Reynald frowned looking at Rashaad. "Founders Agreement? Does this mean you've been fixed to work with me?"
"of course! We have a vision and a mission. That's the main thing for business associates right? I also really like the way you run the company. But of course there are points that we must adhere to for the common good right?". Rashaad.
Reynald skimmed the contents of the file given by Rashaad and put it back on the table.
"You're right. Even for families, business is still business. You made this founder agreement to reduce the risk later on. I-i understand. Of course we have to do it".
"Who will make a written agreement? You or me? Of course we can not believe only with oral agreements even though both of our companies are trusted with good credibility, right? Written agreement on the basis of law." Reynald looked at Rashaad seriously waiting for the man's answer.
"I think we will negotiate it again with the legal team of both companies only. We'll set a time for them to meet in person".
Reynad agreed. "All right then. I don't think there's anything else we need to talk about".
Reynald got off his couch and tidied his suit. "I'm sorry then".
"Hey you don't want to have lunch together? My fiancee will be here soon. Call your wife to come over here too and we can go to lunch". Sahut Rashaad while standing opposite Reynald.
Reynald's face immediately hardened when he heard that Anggi was coming. It did not escape Rashaad's observation until the man looked confused.
"Are you in a hurry?". Ask Rashaad.
"Ah.. Is correct. I have to go back to Jakarta this afternoon"
"I have to go on a business trip again tomorrow. I didn't calm down to leave my daughter too long".
Rashaad nodded in understanding as his lips extended a smile. "It's okay. I-i understand. Too bad you and your wife can't eat with my fiance this afternoon".
Reynald smiled slightly. "Send my regards to him".
Rashaad nodded and extended his hand towards Reynald. Both of them shook hands tightly.
"I'm waiting for you in Jakarta with your legal team. Just let me know when you'll come to my assistant". Reynald said as he looked at Rashaad who was immediately nodded by the man.
On the other side....
Two women with charming looks and beautiful looks look at each other. Both are now in a luxury restaurant located around Corniche Beach.
"Is there anything until you ask me to meet here?". Ask Anggi.
A woman who was none other than Clara also gave a smile. "Of course there is".
"What?"
"Until when do you want to pretend in front of me and your fiancee?" Ask Clara.
Anggi frowned in confusion.
"What do you mean exactly?".
Clara leaned forward and looked at Anggi sharply.
"When do you want to pretend that you and Reynald don't know each other?".
Suddenly Anggi was surprised to hear Clara's narration. But he quickly changed his face again calmly and threw a faint smile at Clara.
"Ah.. You already know..." Anggi Mumbles.
Anggi looked at Clara right into her bead of eyes. "Then what's the problem? Neither me nor Reynald were just being ordinary".
Clara smiled in anguish. "Other habits? Until you came night and night to the penthouse when I wasn't there. Is that natural?".
"I'm sorry about that. But your daughter won't let me go home and scream at the mall. If you see him, then I'm sure you'll ask me to come to the penthouse. Nothing happened that night anyway".
"But the fact that you and Reynald have a past together won't go away. And that bothers me so much!" Clara was full of emphasis.
Anggi frowned while looking at Clara with a confused look.
"Am I bothering you? No right? Am I bothering your husband? I don't think so".
"Me and Reynald have their own lives right now. It's true we were together. But that was in the past. It's been 5 years" Anggi said calmly.
"But my husband never forgot you! Once I know the cause is because of you, the woman who only briefly filled her days. I'm so unacceptable!".
"That's your problem. Not my problem. I think this has gone into your marriage to Reynald where I can't enter. Do you expect me to persuade Reynald to forget me? That's what I've done. And you know also if someone's heart can't you steer as well as you".
"If you don't accept that the woman is me, then what should I do? I've gone as far as I can when you get back to her. We haven't had contact with each other in years. But it turns out that I was reunited with him accidentally, is that also my fault?".
Anggi then stood up and looked down at Clara.
"I think our chat got here. Excuse me".
