Sin Favorite

SPENDING TIME

AUTHOR POV

Adrian and Nadine enjoy their relaxing afternoon in the back garden. The two sat together in the gazebo, with Adrian embracing Nadine's shoulder from the side. Not to forget, Adrian also stroked Nadine's distended stomach that lately, he often did.

Arga and Arjuna had already returned home about an hour ago. Nadine had offered them to stay until dinner, but they refused. Said they were going out on a date tonight.

Nadine looked up at her husband, "Adrian.."

"Hmm?" Adrian responded by shaking without looking.

"Can I ask you something? There was one thing that stuck in my mind and it made me curious." Nadine plays her fingers and makes abstract writing movements on the knee of Adrian's leg which becomes the pedestal of his arm.

During the conversation Adrian and his younger siblings had in the living room, Nadine did not comment much. He prefers to be quiet and busy listening to their discussion. Therefore, many questions were left in his mind at this moment.

"Ask what?" adrian's Response.

Nadine turned her head for a moment while raising her little finger, "But you promise first, don't get angry if I ask..."

"No idea, it depends." Adrian poked both his shoulders.

Nadine now tilted her body quickly and faced Adrian straight. "Please..."

"What do you want to ask?" Adrian relented.

"That's about your discussion was the same brother-sister. From the conclusion I've caught, you're asked to takeover Natadipura Group's company. My question is, why don't you take over?"

Adrian frowned and looked at Nadine in full search.

"I mean you know, of all the companies you can takeover, why do you seem reluctant to take care of Natadipura Group? You are not at all tempted to take leadership there. In fact, usually you like the acquisition of other people's companies when they are in large debt, on the verge of likudiation or being insolvent." Nadine clarified all the questions lodged in her mind.

"When an opportunity like this comes along, why not take it? But the business also has your own family! It's a good opportunity, isn't it?!" Nadine.

Adrian chuckled softly while inserting Nadine's hair child who was blown behind the ear so as not to cover the beautiful eyes of his wife who was always able to captivate the heart.

"The reason is only one. Because I don't want it, '" Adrian replied casually.

"Actually from the age of 20 years, Opa was so keen to offer me to join Natadipura Group. Although at that time I was still minimal business knowledge and no experience, Opa always maksa. Unfortunately, I was not interested. I prefer to start my own business. I have a principle, when I grow up I won't take any of Natadipura's family's estate for a dime."

"For me, enjoying the educational facilities and food cages from their boards is more than enough. And I still hold to that principle until this very moment. That's why my legacy from the Natadipura family I leave it all to my sisters."

"I ask Arjuna & Arga to take over 55% of Natadipura Group's assets is not without reason, I just want them ready to go into business. Understand very well how the ins and outs so that they become a resilient businessman. Starting with the challenge, takeover Natadipura group as a start. It's heavy, but they have to get used to."

"But did it all go their way?" ask Nadine again.

"I never pushed them into business, nor did I free them to choose their own future. But lately, I know secretly Arga and Arjuna have a side business. In the end their choice fell into business too right? So yeah, well, after Papa resigned, my two sisters had to step up for takeover."

Nadine rubbed Adrian's chin which began to be filled with feathers rather dense. Looks like her husband had to do a shave, so that his face looks clean and neat.

But with this appearance, Nadine still likes. Because basically, Adrian is handsome. It fits.

"You are so dear to them. It is very clear from the way you pay attention to them and monitor their activities. You are also willing to give your rights without reciprocity" said Nadine.

"They're my sisters, my responsibility. Back when my relationship with Papa and Mama had not improved, I was already close to them."

Nadine smiled at the corner of her lips. "I'm amazed by you, for a person who is classified as indifferent.you still have a high level of care!"

"That's because they're my nuclear family, if not.don't expect me to intervene, not even look!"

"I'm so in love with the way you protect and cherish them, that's your love language. Act of service. And for that, I adore you so much." Nadine kissed Adrian's left cheek and stroked him gently with her thumb.

(I'm so in love with the way you protect and cherish them, that's your love language. An action. And for that, I adore you so much)

"I'm still trying to do what's best for them." Adrian smiled faintly. "But Nad, why are you suddenly asking about Natadipura Group? Tumben?! Are you afraid that we're living a life of lack because we can't inherit?"

"Absolutely speaking.not that! I was just curious!" Nadine is upset about being accused. Adrian indirectly labeled himself as a materialistic woman.

"Just take it easy, without the legacy of the Natadipura Family, my money is already abundant. Even my assets and net worth are worth higher than the Natadipura Group now. You can check on any news site, or do I want to show you my bank account if you don't believe me?" Adrian teasing Nadine.

"Geez! I am not matre! You don't remember what, it used to be a fitting you still ngaku be a bodyguard.I just want to marry you even if forced! I have no problem living a simple life, which is important enough and happy!" ketus Nadine while glaring.

Adrian shook his head and chuckled at his wife's anxious behavior. "Yes, I believe you are different from the others. Don't pout, want to kiss you?!"

Nadine patted Adrian hard on the shoulder, "You're now a little bit of a kiss! Ngeselin!"

"But you like it, right?"

"Adriann..." Nadine glanced at him sharply.

The two of them also tickled each other's waists and continued their leisure time by joking together. Adrian laughs more and smiles more now. His life is increasingly colored with the presence of Nadine who fills the emptiness of his heart all this time.

Without Adrian knowing, Nadine is a precious woman who never knew she needed. Nadine was the best mistake of the choice she ever made. She's really his favorite sin....
