STUCK GAME HOT MAFIA

25. Pardon....!

Keysha's daily life, who enjoyed his job as Edward's assistant, made the boss satisfied with Keysha's work. Even Keysha was more deft in taking care of all Edward's needs than Gustav.

In fact, he did not hesitate to give advice in the middle of meeting Edward who established a cooperative relationship with the company he judged did not bring much profit to the boss. As of now, Edward is discussing his cooperation project in their products engaged in the production of silk materials.

"Master. We have very quality raw materials to add value to your production which is currently a lot of demand from distributors" said Mr. Hugo.

"You're right Mr. Hugo right now we're short of his raw material supply. Do you want to be the main raw material supplier in our factory?" ask Edward.

"Of course but we can not meet the demand as you need because of our lack of capital at this time" said Mr Hugo.

"How much do you need just contact my assistant so that he will take care of everything" said Mr. Edward who agreed to his client's request.

"Sorry Mr. Edward! I won't give a shred of money to this master con man" circus Keysha.

"You ..! what right have you to refuse master Edward's orders?" snapped by Mr. Hugo.

"You think I'm a fool to let my boss take your unreasonable offer of cooperation for granted?" keysha.

"What do you mean, you fucking girl? do you think I'm a fraud?" asked Mr. Hugo with a furious face.

"Obviously you're a fraud. Actually you are just a bankrupt farmer because your crops often fail. Silkworms cannot produce high-quality threads because of the plague. Not to mention the wages of the workers are so minimal that they compact strike.

And your debt in the bank is vanishing. And now you ask for an injection of funds from the company just to pay off the bank's debt, not to raise capital for that stupid reason. I did a survey of your company before you met my boss" Keysha made Edward smile.

Edward admires Keysha's prowess and anticipates everything to save his company from the con artists who want to deceive him. And this is the second time Keysha has shamed his client.

"Sorry Mr Hugo! I cannot continue our cooperation because the reason is clear that my assistant has just revealed" said Mr. Edward.

"Wait for Mr. Edward. What this woman said was not all true. I can vouch for that, "prevent Mr. Hugo.

"That's what you think. But the fact that my assistant found was very different because he could tell from every reliable source by presenting some valid evidence that I never doubted his performance" Edward said.

Edward hurried to his feet. He no longer wants to hear the ravings of Mr. Hugo who spent his useless time if too long with Mr. Hugo.

"Let's go to Keysha!" take Edward.

"Good sir." Keysha walks with Edward out of the hotel restaurant where they met Mr. Hugo.

While crossing the hotel lobby, a hotel attendant pushing a trolley luggage or an unscrupulous bellboy trolley almost rammed into Keysha giving Mr. Edward a reflex to embrace Keysha in his arms.

"Keysha. Watch out...!" peekik Edward's.

Keysha was shocked to see what had happened just now. Edward rushed over to the bellboy who immediately rewarded the man with a raw bogem.

"I'm sorry sir. I didn't intentionally because the item was too heavy" the officer said.

"But, you've almost harmed my woman" cried Edward made the hotel security officer and hotel manager immediately intervene to mediate Edward and the hotel attendant.

"But, he...!"

"I beg. He also has a family. Don't do it, please!" Keysha clasped his hands together with Edward's plea.

Edward did not understand Keysha's difficult way of thinking. On the one hand he can be firm on others. While on the other hand his heart is not strong enough if others are oppressed even though the person almost harmed him.

"We apologize for your inconvenience, sir!" said the hotel owner who knows who Edward is in the country.

"Hm!"

Edward walked out of the hotel, clutching Keysha's waist. His heart felt Keysha was no longer just an assistant to him but now Keysha was more than that to him.

"Are you okay Keysha?" edward asked when he was in the car.

"I'm fine, Edward. Can we go home now?" keysha looks very tired.

"Yes dear," said Edward, making Keysha flinch.

"Please don't treat me excessively, Mr. Edward!" firmly Keysha.

"Keysha. We're both not tied to anyone. Am I wrong if I expect more from you?" ask Edward.

"Obviously you are very wrong sir. Your love is right but being in a relationship with someone else's wife is wrong" Keysha's dream left Edward stunned.

"What do you mean Keysha?" edward asked again to confirm Keysa's remarks, which he thought might have been misheard.

"I'm sorry, sir. I've been married." Keysha bowed lethargicly as he squinted his fingers.

"Keysha. If you are married, why would you want to stay apart from her? what happened to your relationship?" asked Edward curiously.

"I can't explain to you anything more privacy to you, sir" said Keysha.

"Keysha. If he doesn't love you. Let me take his place" said Edward.

"But I love him. Loved her. My heart cannot betray him, even if I want to. I'm sorry, Mr. Edward!" keysha said while holding back her tears.

"alright. We're going home now!" Edward took his car in a very disappointed feeling. He did not expect the feeling of love that he had been saving for his assistant Keysha, apparently just clapping one hand.

Along the way, both of them seemed silent. Sometimes they can only take a breath and sigh as if they want to release the tightness in their hearts. Although Keysha knew that his marriage to Stainer was only on contract paper for six months but he would not be able to move to another heart let alone he had not received a divorce letter that was religiously valid and Stainer never dropped a talc on him. His departure from Stainer was only because the man had never offended the contractual agreement.

While there in Jakarta, Stainer was thinking about his wife whom he could not meet. Though he saw from the data of the plane passengers there is the name of Keysha who left for Milan. But, after the check to Milan, Keysha did not live in the country.

"Where are you going my wife, Keysha?" lirih Stainer while looking at Keysha's pretty face on her phone wallpaper.
