Second Wife Successor Mr. Zain

Chapter 59. Not In accordance with the Plan

“Bi Nur, later deliver food to my room and no one wakes my wife!” zain's orders after finishing his breakfast.

This time, Miss. Amara did not comment when she did not find her daughter-in-law at the dinner table, she even smiled to herself while enjoying her breakfast menu.

“Tomorrow we so go to Semarang, Zain?” ask Ny. Amara after finishing her breakfast.

“Iya, Mom. Zahra is looking forward to meeting her ummanya family.”

“We leave early in the morning, and stay a few days there.”

“Mommy just prepare what we will bring, let Barra set the rest.”

This morning, Zain left for the company with a face that looked brighter than usual. He left without waiting for his wife to wake up, if not for an important meeting he was not willing to leave his wife just like that.

Zain accidentally did not wake Zahra because he knew that the woman must be exhausted because all night he did not let his wife to sleep for a second. They just fell asleep when the clock shows at 04:00 in the morning.

After all Zain was a normal man who had not channeled his passion to any woman for a long time, let alone after the events of that night. The night when for the first time he slept with Zahra, sleeping in the sense of doing what a married couple should do, there was a strange feeling he had never gotten before from any woman even with Clarisa his ex-wife just now.

“What news from the woman?” asked Zain who was sitting in the seat beside the steering wheel, his eyes remained focused staring at the screen of his cellphone which displayed the silhouette of his wife who was still asleep in her sleep.

“Nothing suspicious of him, Sir. Miss Clarisa was only seen a few times out of her apartment for periodic checks after her reckless actions aborted the fetus in her stomach,” explained Barra who focused on her steering wheel.

“Keep watching the woman, lest she hurt my wife!” zain said firmly.

“Good sir, we always keep an eye on every move, all phone access and social media belonging to the woman also does not look anything suspicious.”

“Hmm.” Zain replied with Deheman alone, things that Barra used to get long ago but now his master deheman sounds strange in Barra's ear because he had not heard it since the presence of Zahra who was able to melt ice chunks in the young master more words came out of Zain's diamond mouth.

“Prepare coffee for me at the meeting table!”

“Sorry, Sir?” barra asked to make sure his hearing was not wrong, he knew that his young master did not like to drink coffee, but why did his young master ask this morning to prepare coffee for him?

“What are you deaf?”

“Eh, no Sir. It's just ... since when do you drink coffee, Mr?” ask Barra curiously.

Zain turned his attention away from the phone screen and stared intently at his assistant whom he felt lately Barra asked too many questions if ordered something by him.

“Do you still want to work for me? If I'm bored I can get Ali to take your place!” threatening Zain instantly made Barra speechless and immediately contacted the company secretary to prepare what her young master had asked for.

... *****...

Zain was sitting quietly in his great chair in the meeting room, leaning his body on the back of the chair. His eyes stared straight ahead at the person standing in front of him while presenting the results of their performance. But his mind was not in that place, his focus was gone, he remembered the incident as he was still dancing from inside his head. Sometimes Zain stared at the screen of his phone that displayed the same image as before.

“What do you think, Mister?” ask the man after finishing his presentation.

Everyone threw a glance between astonishment and fear of reprimanding the owner of the company they work for, only this time they saw their leaders were not focused when the meeting was underway.

“Master,” Barra whispered right in the young master's ear but still there was no reaction whatsoever shown by his master.

“Master!” barra shouted but still in whispers.

Zain awoke from his daydream and looked around and found all eyes on him, without feeling guilty he asked in an intimidating tone. “What?”

“We have finished our presentation, Sir. How's your response? Do we need to repeat our presentation once again?” ask the man.

“Barra!” instead of giving an answer, Zain called his assistant's name and refocused on his phone screen.

“Good sir,” replied Barra who understood the intent of his young master.

‘Nona won't run anywhere sir! Even you ignore the meeting this time just to stare at the picture of the lady who fell asleep,’ continued Barra in heart.

“I-iya Sir, sorry.” Barra followed his master's orders, he took over the meeting this time.

But in the middle of the meeting, Zain got a phone call and he walked away from his chair. It looks like Zain was arguing with his interlocutor across the phone, not long after, he walked towards the exit and left the meeting just like that with a face that looks anxious and tense.

Barra who saw that instantly stopped the meeting and rushed after his young master.

“Meeting enough to get here, you can return to your respective places!” barra said firmly before leaving the meeting place.

“Master, did something happen?” barra asked after successfully chasing after her young master who was standing in front of the elevator that was still closed.

“Prepare a flight to Hong Kong today too!”

Barra was surprised to hear his master's orders, but he also did not dare to ask seeing his master put on his cold face with flaming eyes.

“Will I do it, Sir. Then plan your trip to Semarang?”

“Set another time only, cancel all my schedule for some time, it might be a month or even more.”

...*****...

The time shows at 11:00 when Zain arrived at the main station, his arrival makes Ny. Amara was amazed that only a few hours ago her son left the house.

“Why are you home, Zain? Kangen with your wife? He's not gonna run, Zain. All safe with mommy,” said Ny. Amara.

“Where is Zahra, Mom?” zain asked because he did not see his wife in the dining room, but he still saw the figure of his wife eating from CCTV cameras connected to his cellphone.

“Are you home at this time? Be the boss to manage working hours!” sindir Ny's. Amara and ignored her son's question.

“I'll go to Hong Kong, Mom. Mommy came along ...,” said Zain managed to make Ny's face. Amara.

“Urgent Mom's. Please, Mommy will come, who will accompany my wife, Mom!” rayu Zain to his mother.

“I won't set foot in that place again, Zain!”

“Mom ...,” persuades Zain to hope his mother will melt.

“Take Hani! Never talk about the place in front of mommy.”

“Mom, instead of that time mommy inquired about her whereabouts?”

“Mommy just asked about his whereabouts, Zain! Not to meet him! Mommy knows you've been in contact with her, even paying for all her life's necessities, just shut up and let you do as you please! But mommy doesn't want to see her face! He's not your responsibility, Zain!” ms Pekik. Amara and passed to her room.

Zain saw the departure of his mother, he increasingly felt helpless faced with his favorite women. On the one hand he did not want to hurt his mother by reminding her of his parents' past, but on the other hand he did not have the heart to let his father's daughter live in suffering, he said, even the girl had never once felt the affection of her parents, even seeing the faces of her parents was only through old photos of their relics.

“Talk to Mr. Aaron to postpone our visit to Semarang. And have Hani get ready to go with us, Barra.”

“Good Mr.” Barra looked at the back of her master who was walking away from her towards the elevator.

‘Master, I promise to always accompany and support whatever your decision,’ promise Barra in heart.
